Primary passive aggressive interviewer Jake Tapper interviews Senator Rand Paul on CNN State of the Union.

.
Tapper is a toxic media duck with a personal dislike toward the incoming administration, perhaps driven by his previous employment within the Clinton family. No single media personality exemplifies the ‘David Mamet principle’ as Jake Tapper; pretending not to know things in almost every single media interview.

After 18 months of getting the presidential election completely wrong, not a single mainstream media outlet has looked honestly in the mirror, admitted their inherent flaws and committed to any change in approach, management or journalistic personnel. Exactly the opposite, they’ve quadrupled down on the same old – same old.

Consider a media request for access as you would any employment application:

♦ Drug test anyone who requests credentials for the White House press. Conduct background checks, criminal checks and credit checks via a third party security vendor. Dismiss any applicant who does not pass a strict background check.
♦ Keep using twitter and facebook daily, or as determined to send direct messaging to a news-consuming public. Keep using social media, and/or any alternate communications platforms to communicate with the American People.
♦ Establish a strict dress code for credentialed media. No casual days, ever. 100% business professional, 100% of the time. No business casual, ever.

The White House Correspondents Association held a closed-door Town Hall event last Thursday to unite behind a singular ideological political narrative.

According to published reports of the event [via CNN ] the Association’s prevailing theme was a rallying call there must be “unity” against the Trump administration.

[…]  Mason, a reporter at Reuters, has been emphasizing press corps “unity” in the six months he has been president, and he said that it was a theme of Thursday’s annual meeting.
He said he defined “unity” as “not allowing the divisions of the press corps to be exploited.” (read more)

“Exploited”?  Ah yes, the herd mindset must be retained if the echo-chamber is to battle united against a singular ideological adversary, President Donald Trump.

Yesterday representative John Lewis (D-GA) disrespectfully stated President-elect Donald Trump was “not a legitimate president” and he was boycotting the inauguration.
Traditionally Republicans have curled up into a ball and refused to defend themselves against ridiculous attacks from moonbat leftists.  However, Donald Trump is not a traditional republican.  Today, Donald Trump pushed back:

The media (writ large) and professional political left do not have a familiar frame of reference for what to do next.  Ergo, the pearl-clutching ‘how-dare-he’ ism begins… they were counting on Lewis’s race to be a PC shield against any backlash.   Once again, Donald Trump proves he doesn’t see race – he sees stupid.

There were many interesting moments in the various senate confirmation hearings this past week.  One of the better exchanges comes from Secretary of State nominee Rex Tillerson and Senator Marco Rubio.
At 06:10 (prompted below), interventionist advocate Senator Rubio challenges T-Rex to label Saudi Arabia as a “human rights violator“, and is seemingly irked by Tillerson’s reluctance to engage in labeling.  Eventually this leads to Tillerson’s eloquent and articulate adult dispatch of little Marco.  Great Watch:

.
Both Republican and Democrat Senators are being introduced to an administration which recognizes there are various cultures all over the world who hold different values than the U.S. It has been this way for millennia.
Interventionists like Rubio appear unhappy the incoming administration is unwilling to use brute force to influence and/or demand change.

Oh boy, Best Election Ever !!

…Only Trump could put this much sunlight upon decades of economic fraud, as carried out by “the big club“, in one single news cycle..

(Reuters) The head of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce met with Cuban President Raul Castro and in separate meetings with members of Castro’s economic cabinet on Friday, as they prepare for the advent of a more hostile Trump administration next week.
The chamber has been urging the Cuban government to sign a number of agreements with major companies such as General Electric (GE.N), negotiated over the last 18 months, before President-elect Donald Trump takes office on Jan. 20.

Continuing to build upon a two month long well-constructed UniParty narrative, today Representative John Lewis steps to the Chuck Todd microphone to declare that President Donald Trump is “not a legitimate president”.

[…] When pressed to explain why, he cited allegations of Russian hacks during the campaign that led to the release of internal documents from the Democratic National Committee, and Hillary Clinton’s campaign co-chairman, John Podesta.
“I think the Russians participated in helping this man get elected. And they helped destroy the candidacy of Hillary Clinton,” Lewis told NBC News’ Chuck Todd. (link)

After months of direct and indirect innuendo surrounding the vast Russian conspiracy, John Lewis was carefully selected by the left-wing of the DC UniParty to be the first to make the public declaration. In addition to being a partisan hack, Lewis provides the politically correct shields needed when advancing politically-toxic absurdity.

There is a particular transparency of motive which becomes clear, and reconciles all inquiry, when an interested observer accepts a particular media framework:

♦ The media outlet CNN provides for their domestic and international audience, the preferred position for all policy and points of advocacy from the Department of State.  ♦ The media outlet The Washington Post serves a similar purpose, however their specialized role is as a conduit for the Central Intelligence Agency.

When you accept this track-record truism, the political presentations from each media entity gain an accurate context.
As we observe each outlet, we continually see them reflecting the interests of the larger Deep State.
Anonymous sources become “senior government officials”, which is to say political officials with specific political agendas.
Over the past two months the agenda for Deep State has been to undermine the legitimacy of an incoming president whose goals and objectives are adverse to the Deep State interests. President Donald Trump represents an existential threat to all of the various elements within Deep State.

While it might be disconcerting for some, and Glenn Greenwald is not a political ally, we hold no reservations about exposing the UniParty’s connections to Deep State constructs whenever it surfaces.
Fox host Tucker Carlson invites The Intercept’s Glen Greenwald to discuss why the intelligence agencies appear to be in conflict with President Elect Donald Trump. Glenn Greenwald breaks down how the recently leaked 35-page-dossier could have only been injected into the media narrative from one of the intel agencies at odds with, and at risk from, President Trump. WATCH:

Mounting evidence supports the ongoing thesis the Department of Defense has actually seceded from the political elites; and with the election of President Donald Trump, they are poised on the horizon to reconstruct a nationalist-minded defense, intelligence and security apparatus.
This is the fundamental paradigm shift many have discussed, yet few imagined possible. (more…)
