Within a recent Washington Post article, describing all of the various Ted Cruz Super-PAC’s activities, the following paragraph sticks out (emphasis mine):
[…] At least eight independent political groups are jockeying to support Cruz now that he has risen in the polls as perhaps the strongest challenger to frontrunner Donald Trump. The dynamic has confused wealthy donors and brought disarray to the otherwise orderly political operation that surrounds the freshman senator from Texas.

This Philadelphia report by NBC actually aligns with what many people have been able to piece together in the San Bernardino attack in December. Individual members activate, but they are only one part of larger Islamic Jihad terror cells.
(Philadelphia NBC10) Tensions ran high in the Philadelphia Police Department Sunday — three days after an attempted assassination of an officer in West Philadelphia by a man allegedly claiming he did it “in the name of Islam” — after an anonymous tip to officers on Saturday said the threat against police in the city is ongoing.
According to a police report obtained by NBC10 on Sunday, an anonymous tipster told officers that, “the threat to police is not over … the offender who shot [Officer Jesse] Hartnett is part of a group that consists of three others and that the [alleged shooter] is not the most radical of the four.” The report goes on to say the tipster told police to “be careful.” (more…)
Actor Sean Penn met with Sinaloa Cartel drug-kingpin El Chapo for an interview on behalf of Rolling Stone magazine; and the feds were tracking him – that’s how they caught El Chapo.
Who’s going to try and protect Sean Penn from the Sinoloa cartel retaliation now?
A recent article in U.S. News and World Report highlights a profound republican party irony and simultaneous hypocrisy.
On the heels of a devastating defeat of John McCain 2008, and immediately following the disastrous defeat of Mitt Romney in 2012, the power-structures within the Republican party decided to do a complete “GOP Autopsy” and figure out what they could do to start winning presidential elections again. They called it “The Growth and Opportunity Project”.
The officials (co-chairs) in charge of conducting the autopsy were: Ari Fleischer, a former press secretary to President George W. Bush; Henry Barbour, an RNC member from Mississippi; Zori Fonalledas, an RNC member from Puerto Rico; Glenn McCall, an RNC member from South Carolina; and Sally Bradshaw, a political strategist from Florida.
You would think their resulting 2013 100 page report with recommendations like: (more…)
Since 2013 we have specifically documented the legislative agenda of Tom Donohue, Wall Street, and their lobbying arm the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. The CoC legislative agenda includes:
All of the presidential candidates actively support this chamber agenda (some more openly than others), which is also supported by Club4Growth, Koch Brothers, Robert Mercer, and Wall Street.
ALL of the GOP Presidential candidates have taken tens of millions in lobbyist money to assist their campaigns.
All, except Donald J Trump.
Julia Hahn […] Conservative populist thought-leader Jeff Sessions has explained that supporting amnesty and citizenship for illegal immigrants should be inherently disqualifying for any GOP nominee. Sessions said previously, “Supporting citizenship for illegal immigrants should be disqualifying. (more…)
Almost everyone is familiar with the most devastating loss for the Professional Political Establishment in the 2014 election cycle, the primary defeat of House Majority Leader Eric Cantor by insurgent patriot Dave Brat.
Fewer people recognize how devastating the loss was for the globalist DC elites who were less than two days away from approving the Gang-of-Eight Amnesty Bill known as “Comprehensive Immigration Reform”.
With the vote count “whipped”, and with enough House votes to pass identified, Speaker John Boehner was set to hold the vote on Thursday June 12th 2014. Cantor was defeated (primaried) Tuesday June 10th, and the “whip count” disappeared almost immediately.
The GOPe vowed to retaliate against Brat. Last week they began to make their moves:
If a terrorist strikes in Philadelphia but no-one admits it’s terrorism, did terrorism actually happen? Similarly, if a federal law on transmission of classified information is violated, but no-one admits it’s unlawful, does it actually matter that transmission happened?
There have been so many revelations in the past six months regarding Hillary Clinton’s emails (despite the internet on fire over this one) it is impossible to know if it’s actually any more damaging than any previous discoveries…..
Such is life in Clintonville; a rather bizarro-land filled with professional gaslighters, where if you get pulled over by police you can debate the implied intent of “Stop Signs”.
Baltimore Six Trial Update – As many readers expected, the Maryland Court of Special Appeals Chief Judge Peter B. Krauser placed an immediate “stay” on an earlier ruling by Baltimore Judge Williams which was forcing officer William Porter to testify in the case against officer Caesar Goodson.
The higher court “stayed Judge William’s ruling”. That means the Williams order is temporarily suspended until the higher court can make a ruling determining if the decision violates Porter’s constitutional rights.
[…] The order does not call for the trial of Officer Caesar R. Goodson Jr. to be postponed as the matter is worked out. Jury selection is scheduled for Monday. (link)
Judge Williams was so far beyond wrong in his judicial decision, driven entirely by ideology, it is intensely doubtful the full appeals court would/will allow such an obvious violation of Porter’s fifth amendment right.
