Huma Abedin, wife of Anthony “Carlos Danger” Weiner, is the closest confidante and adviser to Hillary Clinton.  Previously described as “Clinton’s second daughter”.

(Via New York Post) Top Hillary Clinton confidante Huma Abedin played no formal role in a radical Muslim journal — even though she was listed as an editor on the hate-filled periodical’s masthead for a dozen years, a campaign rep claimed Sunday.

“My understanding is that her name was simply listed on the masthead in that period,” Clinton spokesman Nick Merrill said hours after The Post broke the bombshell story. “She did not play a role in editing at the publication.”

Merrill said Abedin was just a figurehead and not actually on staff at the Saudi-based and -funded Journal of Minority Muslim Affairs, which featured radically anti-feminist views and backed strict Islamic laws roundly criticized for oppressing women. (more…)

Several recent articles are spotlighting a ridiculous transparency in the way the U.S. media is covering the 2016 Presidential Election.

The New York Post has one such outline titled “American Journalism Collapsing Before Our Eyes“:

[…]  The shameful display of naked partisanship by the elite media is unlike anything seen in modern America. 

The largest broadcast networks — CBS, NBC and ABC — and major newspapers like The New York Times and Washington Post have jettisoned all pretense of fair play. Their fierce determination to keep Trump out of the Oval Office has no precedent.

According to several media reports Hillary Clinton has promised to stop taking foreign donations to her Clinton Foundation, ie. bribes, if she wins the presidency.

How very magnanimous of her…

NEW YORK, Aug. 19 (UPI) — The Clinton Foundation will stop accepting all foreign donations and former President Bill Clinton will step down from running the charitable organization if Hillary Clinton wins the presidency, the group said. (link)

Leading some to wonder why she never took the same approach while she was acting as Secretary of State for the U.S.?  Then again, even this announcement is fraught with Clintonian parseltongue.   – SEE HERE for EXAMPLES –

Yesterday the official position from the White House and Democrat leadership was that Louisiana didn’t need political distractions as they coped with natural disaster recovery efforts from a historic flood.

Then Trump.

Donald Trump was greeted today in Baton Rouge and Lafayette Louisiana with thanks from volunteers, and cheers of appreciation from residents for “not forgetting” and for drawing “attention to their plight”.

Today the official position from the White House and Democrats is that “leadership is critical”:

WH says @POTUS "eager to get a first-hand look at the impact of the devastating floods" and assess the federal response.

The Iranian government specifically said –and broadcast on their television network (Feb)– a $400 million cash payment to them from the U.S. was a successfully extorted ransom payment to secure the release of American hostages.

However, on August 4th, the White House immediately claimed the $400 million cash payment made as part of the “Iran Deal” was not a ransom payment to secure the release of the U.S. hostages.  President Obama went on television to state: “no ransom was paid”:

Governor Rick Perry appeared on the insufferable CNN Jake Tapper show earlier today.  Of course what would the CNN propaganda be worth if Tapper didn’t immediately begin by targeting Perry to defend the “faux-controversial” comments about Khizr Khan…. etc.

However, things didn’t exactly go as planned.  Please note the first response from Tapper at 00:46 “well, well, I don’t think anyone is saying he shouldn’t be criticized“… Watch:

Tapper:  “well, well, I don’t think anyone is saying he shouldn’t be criticized”…

Perry: “well, then what’s the conversation then”?…

Exactly.  If no-one is saying Khan can’t be criticized, then what’s the controversy?  The entire manufactured controversy centered around any criticism of Khizr Khan being ‘out-of-bounds’.

Epic.  Common Sense.

Tapper Haz ‘Splodey.

A Pennsylvania Jury found Democrat Attorney General Kathleen Kane guilty on nine criminal counts last night including conspiracy and perjury.  Elected to office in 2014, found guilty of criminal conspiracy in 2016:

(Via New York Times) […]  Ms. Kane stared straight ahead as the word “guilty,” uttered decisively by a juror in a flowered dress, echoed nine times around the courtroom. The lawyers immediately went into a private conference with the judge, leaving Ms. Kane, who campaigned on a promise to uncover political interference in Pennsylvania, alone at the defense table.

And when Judge Wendy Demchick-Alloy returned to the courtroom, she turned directly to Ms. Kane with a stern warning, her words slicing through the silence.

“There is to be absolutely no retaliation of any kind against any witness in this case, either by your own devices, from your own mouth or your hand, or directing anybody to do anything,” the judge said. She threatened Ms. Kane, who is currently free on bail, with immediate incarceration if she failed to comply. (more…)

I’m going through the transcript and video now and will be expanding on the overall speech in a subsequent and substantive post.  However, a quick few notations are in order.

Candidate Donald Trump’s specific speech today was a rebuke to the 2009 speech of President Obama made in Cairo Egypt.  Don’t let the media ignoring that aspect fall silently past you, it’s critical.

The 2009 Cairo Speech by President Obama, his “Mid-east Obama Doctrine”, was the detonation tool, the exact epicenter, for the explosion that created the “Arab Spring”.  Go back and refresh your memory if needed.  It was a specific moment in time. It was a specifically worded ideological speech, and it held specific goals and intentions.

The media will now go into overdrive to protect President Obama from the bigger truth which can come out as a result of this enlarged conversation.   It was President Obama who gave rise to the “Arab Spring”.  You can guarantee the media will go nuts trying to avoid that reality. Watch…

There appears to be a great deal of angst and anxiety surrounding the 2016 Presidential race that is genuinely unnecessary. When you know the playbook, when you know what’s predictably going to happen, there’s no reason to be upset when each tripwire is triggered.

The only time concern is truly warranted, is when one of the tripwires are not triggered. The mosquitoes that buzz, don’t bite – they’re just annoying.

Having said that, and having previously outlined the playbook for most of the 2016 election previously, let’s take a closer look at what is on the horizon.

However, before outlining the predictable, it is important to remember: almost all of the professional political punditry already know this stuff – they’re just acting as if they believe the political Potemkin village is real to retain a paycheck.

Back in 2015, when several readers still genuinely believed the Potemkin village was real, we tackled the question of:  what would happen if the financial class, the donors who fund the political pantomime, saw Donald Trump as an inevitable candidate?

What we shared over a year ago remains today: (more…)

The Benghazi Brief is easily the most painstaking undertaking I ever endeavored to research, accept and eventually write.  It was not a comfortable assembly.

The Brief was written almost two years ago:

• It was written well before Mike Rogers and Charles Ruppersberger produced their self-serving, pre-retirement, diversionary distraction/report.
• It was written before the House Select Committee on Benghazi was even created, let alone produced their final report.
• The brief was written before the Fox report “13 hours in Benghazi” was presented by Brett Baier.
• It was written long before the Hollywood movie around the night of the Benghazi attack, “13 Hours – The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi” was produced…

…. and not a single aspect to those, or any subsequent revelation, has ever compromised or run counter to the information contained with the Brief.

To the contrary, every report, every leak, every WikiLeak detail, every statement, every interview, every FIOA discovery and every factual detail pried from the clutches of the political establishment has done nothing except to validate the construct of the original research outline.

So why does that matter?
