The shaming letters sent by the Cruz campaign to Iowa voters initially surfaced on Friday.
The Stazi approach was so over the top almost all Ted Cruz supporters couldn’t believe the campaign would be so stupid, including Steve Deace: (more…)
The numbers are in, and according to Brian Stelter (CNN Medi Guru) the Nielsen ratings data shows approximately 12.5 to 13 million Fox debate viewers last night. In comparison to the prior Fox News debate of 25 million viewers, that is nearly a 50% drop.
Of course that doesn’t stop the professional GOPe apologists and propagandists from the pontificating cocktail class from trying to spin the results….
Last week radio talk show host Mark Levin had to reluctantly admit he has a ‘soon-to-be’ step-son working for Senator Ted Cruz. – HERE – Now, this week comes an even more startling revelation:
Bill Sammon is a Fox News Vice President and in charge of the Fox News debates and questioning. His daughter, Brooke Sammon, is Marco Rubio’s Press Secretary.
So how influential is Bill Sammon in the debate formatting? From a Media Buzz interview with Chris Stirewalt about the debate construction: (more…)
Progressive Liberalism on display, yet again, in the multicultural petri dish that has become the European Union as a direct result of mass uncontrolled migration….

The girl was able to save herself from further assault by using pepper spray on the attacker, but now she may be the one who ends up in legal trouble. (more…)
Many broadcast hours and column inches are sure to be used today and tomorrow regarding the decision by Donald Trump to skip the Fox News debate in Iowa.
Predicatively 90% of those reports will most likely circle around a Donald Trump -vs- Megyn Kelly narrative. Obviously that aspect will be the preferred hook used by Fox News to avoid sunlight; it is also profoundly wrong.
Megyn Kelly, and her sidekick Chris Stirewalt are the visible symptom, not the actual underlying issue. Their partnered ‘too-cute-by-half schtick‘ has been ongoing for several months, including the coordinated antics at the last debate, and in the weeks leading up to the last debate; but again, they are the symptom – not the real issue.

Yesterday, well, actually Friday, the release of the information was yesterday, Vice-President Joe Biden met in Turkey with President Recep Erdogan. They met for several hours as reported in The Hill and the topic was an escalated U.S./Turkish military footprint against ISIS :
Vice President Joe Biden on Saturday said the U.S. and regional ally Turkey are prepared to seek a military solution in Syria to try to solve the nation’s five-year-long civil war.
Speaking after a meeting with Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu in Istanbul, Biden stressed that a political solution to the problem would still be preferable.
“But we are prepared if that’s not possible to having a military solution to this operation and taking out Daesh,” he said, according to AFP, using another name for the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS).
Most of you knew this was going to be a wild ride. Heck, many knew back in June 2015 when candidate Donald Trump entered the race this was going to be unlike anything we’d ever seen. Boy howdy, was that ever an understatement
Going all the way back to the spring of 2014 those who didn’t fall into the emotional chasm, which surrounds candidate advocacy, saw the makings of a really strange situation possible. Today many of those possibilities are now front and center.
In Iowa…. candidate Ted Cruz takes to the stage next to Glenn Beck to accept a quickly structured endorsement to stem the electoral collapse. If pictures are worth a thousand words, the look on Senator Cruz’s face is, well, priceless:
And really, who can blame him….. poor Ted eh’?
After all, the endorsement comes from a man who uses a radio and media platform to continually decry “identity politics” yet uses the event to proclaim his anointed candidate based on what else, ethnic identity: (more…)
REMINDER – By now almost everyone has acknowledged that Donald Trump has ripped the masks from most of the modern professional punditry who espoused to be conservatives yet showed their hidden ideological colors as elite globalists.
In June millions of Fox News viewers saw FOX’s entire line-up of professional pundits proclaim borders shouldn’t matter; border walls won’t work; illegal alien amnesty was the only viable solution to decades of unenforced immigration law; and this was only in week #1 of Donald Trump’s campaign.
Since June ’15, on almost every issue those same pundits have now openly aligned themselves with GOPe agenda items like global trade, tax policy, big government spending, and advocacy to including advancement of Speaker Paul ‘Omnibus’ Ryan.
However, a sharp reader, DrudgeAddict, smartly points out these same voices were the exact group who gathered together in an exclusive meeting with President Obama in 2009 to sing his praises after the ’08 election. Including : (more…)
In response to Sarah Palin’s endorsement of candidate Donald Trump, an apoplectic Glenn Beck has announced his intent to rally with Ted Cruz in Waterloo Iowa.
However, the event itself is being organized by a pro-Cruz group ‘Keep the Promise 1’ (KtP1), a Super-pac originally funded by billionaire hedge-funder Robert Mercer., KtP is also directly attached to to David Barton.
David Barton is Co-Chair for Glenn Beck’s Mercury One charity, and the assembly of interests provides an opportunity to explain how all of these entities connect. (more…)
