Last Thursday Judicial Watch released the deposition transcript of Ambassador Lewis Lukens, former deputy assistant secretary of state and executive director of the State Department’s executive secretariat.
The transcript pdf is embedded below.
Lukens was deposed last week as part of the discovery granted to Judicial Watch by U.S. District Court Judge Emmet G. Sullivan in response to its Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit involving former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s unsecured, non-government email system (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of State (No. 1:13-cv-01363)). (more…)

With the release of the official State Department OIG report, the Associated Press fact-checks Hillary Clinton’s historical statements.  AP comes to the conclusion “Clinton misstates key facts in email episode” – which is parseltongue for SHE LIED:

CLINTON (Lie #1): “The system we used was set up for President Clinton’s office. And it had numerous safeguards. It was on property guarded by the Secret Service. And there were no security breaches.” — March 2015 press conference.

THE REPORT: Evidence emerged of hacking attempts, though it’s unclear whether they were successful.
On Jan. 9, 2011, an adviser to former President Bill Clinton notified the State Department’s deputy chief of staff for operations that he had to shut down the server because he suspected “someone was trying to hack us and while they did not get in i didnt (sic) want to let them have the chance to.” (more…)

FIRST, if you have not followed the “Tripwire Series” this update might take a while to fully digest.  There are key indications the real presidential decision-makers have shifted.
I would strongly suggest you watch this video before continuing, and remind yourself that Andrea Mitchell is Alan Greenspan’s wife (this is one of the “keys” moving forward).
The video is Mika Brezinski outlining the latest State Department report on the Hillary Clinton E-Mail Scandal:  “it feels like Hillary Clinton is lying”…

Last year, against tremendous opposition, we outlined what would happen if two specific occurrences took place:  #1) If Donald Trump secured the GOP nomination; and, #2) If Hillary Clinton crossed a particular threshold and appeared “unelectable”.
What we stated then, eerily remains today. (more…)

We are constantly bombarded by MSM punditry who claim Donald Trump cannot win the Latino vote, or the Women vote, or the Black vote, or the (___Fill_In_The_Blank___) vote. However, few people stop to reset their references when absorbing the pundit speak.
The reference position from the Liberal MSM pundit opining is from their own social neighborhood world-view.
Example: The Latino voters they reference are not Latino voters, they are Latino Liberal voters. The reason they might not consider Trump is not because they are Latino, but rather because they are Liberal.
The same framework is exhibited with all of their other “check-box” demographics.

Milo Yiannopoulos was a guest speaker at DePaul University yesterday, when his event was disrupted by an hoard of extremists from Black Lives Matter and various guilt-ridden college feminist advocates who were furious their “safe space” was violated.
Campus security stood at the back of the room and did nothing while the social justice crowd interrupted the entire event.   Milo discusses below:

An 86 page independent Inspector General (IG) Report (full pdf below) released today outlines the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private communication network while she was Secretary of State.

During the course of their investigation Secretary Hillary Clinton refused to cooperate with the OIG’s office and refused to be interviewed (See footnote #152 pg 38).

[…]  In November 2010, Secretary Clinton and her Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations discussed the fact that Secretary Clinton’s emails to Department employees were not being received. The Deputy Chief of Staff emailed the Secretary that “we should talk about putting you on state email or releasing your email address to the department so you are not going to spam.” In response, the Secretary wrote, “Let’s get separate address or device but I don’t want any risk of the personal being accessible.”152

152 – Secretary Clinton declined OIG’s request for an interview. The former Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations has not responded to OIG’s request for an interview

This might seem a little too “inside baseball” for some, but then again we’re often asked what breadcrumb trails we follow when identifying motives around presidential politics.
Ultimately, understanding the bigger picture, and fully grasping the six year shift in the Wall Street Legislative priority disconnect, will assist readers and researchers to comprehend the motives of the participants in the fully engulfed globalist oligarchy that surrounds U.S. presidential politics.

(LINK from Today)
Many people have yet to accept or make the mental shift needed to understand that Washington DC lawmakers are not your mom/dad’s politicians.  Their legislative endeavors are now fully created by Wall Street globalists.   Once you understand the legislative priorities of Wall Street, you can see what agenda items will be focused upon by UniParty leaders: Ryan, McConnell, Reid/Schumer and Pelosi.
As previously outlined, Senator Bob Corker was dispatched to Trump Tower on Monday to meet with Donald Trump and get a better understanding of the risk to Wall Street’s Legislative Priority Agenda.  (more…)

The entire Clinton Clan have a long history of manufacturing optics. Either by paying supporters to seem unaffiliated, genuine or grassroots – or by seeding protests against their political opponents to give the appearance of genuine controversy/protest. The latest example of a Veteran Protest at Trump Tower is the latter.
The Washington Post wrote a story last week questioning Donald Trump’s fundraiser for veterans. The Clinton campaign organized a phone call with campaign activists to stimulate ideas to stir up the controversy.

The Daily Beast caught wind of the manufactured protest effort:

[…] The Clinton campaign swiftly organized a conference call for Saturday, led by the Clinton campaign’s veterans and military families outreach director, Jonathan Murray. According to one of the people on that call, participants were told that the Clinton campaign should not be seen viewed as behind the organizer of the protest.

At Monday’s protest, Marine veteran and Clinton supporter Alexander McCoy served as a spokesman for the demonstrators—and went to great lengths to hide the Clinton campaign’s involvement with organizing the demonstration.

Apparently the U.S. media has chosen this week to once again reassert itself as the epitome of broadcast propaganda; Pravda must have been giving them a run for the ruses.
One of the examples today comes from the nascent Jake Tapper of CNN who rallied the proverbial troops around a claim that Donald Trump “brought up Vince Foster” while campaigning for President.

After a two minute diatribe on his framework Tapper begins the panel discussion by saying: “how do you respond to Donald Trump bringing up Vince Foster?”
Except there’s a problem; you know, the pesky truth,… Donald Trump didn’t bring up Vince Foster, a reporter did.
As outlined in the Washington Post: (more…)

CNN broadcast a one hour special yesterday called “Why they hate us” discussing why adherents to the most authentic interpretations of Islam hate the United States.
Overall, the broadcasted presentation by Fareed Zakaria was good; actually, very good.  Perhaps one of the best one hour presentations in quite a while.  The content was engaging, the historical references were well presented and well outlined…. until a fatal flaw. The common, disconcerting and uncomfortable fatal flaw.

In what can only be viewed as an effort to downplay the scope of the threat, Fareed Zakaria claims the existence of only 100,000 jihad-minded Islamic followers world-wide.  Fifteen minutes later he presents the 2014 terror victim outcome of 30,000 dead in a single year from Muslim Terrorist Attacks; most victims also Muslim – as if that matters.
Zakaria would have the viewing audience believe that 100k world-wide adherent followers, could inflict 30,00 fatalities.  Common sense, not prone to co-dependency, would refute such an obtuse argument. (more…)
