Dear Mr. Trump, look, we’re not smart – we just know the game, we’ve studied it for years.  As such we are able to predict the moves of the players before they visibly display them.

Politics is an industry, a business – an old business; and like all industries there are leaders within that industry who are more influential than others.   Those leaders or industry directors follow the same playbook whenever their grip on political power is threatened.
Right now the directive is to gather information to use against the vulgarian insurgency. In politic-speak it’s called “opposition research”.  Part of the needed data is to collect “soundbites” that can be used to attack the insurgency in the field of public media consumption.
We already know the Jeb Bush Super-PACs are planning to deluge the electorate with anti-Trump messaging within the next several weeks.  Candidate Donald Trump has forewarned his supporters of the impending storm.   However, if we are going to cut it down to brass tacks, it must be accepted the RNC is part of the apparatus that benefits from the removal of Trump.

Hired by election and fully supported by her community, county clerk Kim Davis is handcuffed and jailed by a U.S. Marshall and federal judge.  Note that Davis is afforded no religious accommodation by the same federal government which mandates -by law- religious accommodation within the private sector for all employees.
And the social justice warrior crowd is gleeful…..

Well this wouldn’t look good in advance of Hillary’s own testimony.  Nothing sketchy here.  Move along, move along….
(via Daily Caller) The State Department IT worker who managed Hillary Clinton’s private email server while she was secretary of state will plead the Fifth Amendment if called to testify about his work on the Democratic presidential candidate’s mysterious email setup, his attorney informed the House Select Committee on Benghazi this week.
The committee subpoenaed Bryan Pagliano on Aug. 11, according to The Washington Post. In addition to testifying on Sept. 10, committee chairman Trey Gowdy asked Pagliano to produce documents related to the servers he managed on behalf of Clinton.
Pagliano worked on Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign before moving over to the State Department in May 2009, several months after Clinton took office. He left the agency at the same time as Clinton, in Feb. 2013. (more…)

The MSM no longer even tries to hide their bias when polled results in average America don’t match their narratives.  Turn up the dials – increase the gaslighting.

Two days ago Investors Business Daily published an extensive poll showing 59% of Americans favored forced deportation if needed in order to gain control of illegal immigration.

The latest IBD/TIPP Poll asked 913 adults coast to coast if they “support or oppose mandatory deportation of illegal immigrants in the U.S.” Not surprisingly, 87% of Trump supporters back the proposal.
What’s surprising is that 59% of the overall public does as well. Mandatory deportation gets majority support in all age groups except 18-24, every income group, among both women and men, at every level of educational achievement, and in rural, urban and suburban regions.
More interesting still is the fact that 64% of independents and 55% of moderates support deportation.  (link)

The media went out of their way to ignore the data; it just doesn’t fit the narrative. Quick turn the story around with terra-joules of gaslighting.   (more…)

Mosby is a very lucky State Attorney. Maryland state law prohibits cameras and recording devices in court rooms. Her ineptitude, and the weakness behind the false construct of her case, will be masked without sunlight. Unfortunately, we are going to have to rely on reporters and media accounts for details.

Update 6:00pm – SEPARATE TRIALS – A judge on Wednesday ordered that six Baltimore Police officers charged in the arrest and death of Freddie Gray be tried separately.
The ruling was one of three that Judge Barry Williams handed down during the first pre-trial motions hearing in the case. Williams earlier denied defense motions to dismiss charges against the officers and to recuse State’s Attorney Marilyn J. Mosby’s office from the case.
Prosecutors sought to have the six officers tried in groups, while defense attorneys had argued their clients should be tried separately.  Williams said trying the officers together would not be “in the interest of justice.”  (link) (more…)

In the unlikely event you can’t hear the sound of the Rhinoceros marching on bubble wrap directly behind you, it might be worth while getting a firmer grip on both your ankles:

[…]  “The Senate Democrats have a big enough number to prevent us from doing things. They prevented us from doing any of the bills that appropriate money for the government, thereby forcing a negotiation when we go back in after Labor Day, which I’ll be engaged in with the administration and others to try to sort out how much we’re going to spend and where we’re going to spend it.”  ~ Mitch McConnell

Yes, that’s Senate Majority Leader, Mitch McConnell, giving a preview of his “budget plan strategy”.
If you find yourself pausing, well, prior to having the jackbooted foot of a $4 trillion spending proposal rammed into your psyche, and asking yourself why the “Senate” leader and not the House Leader is making such proclamations – you might still be stuck in the old School-House-Rock paradigm of thinking that budgety stuff is actually constructed in the House of Representatives.  (more…)

Prayers for his wife, four children and the entire family.

CHICAGO – The Fox Lake police officer shot and killed while chasing three suspects Tuesday morning was a 30-year veteran of the force who went by the nickname “G.I. Joe” and was married with four children, according to police and family.
“He’s got four sons who are going to have to go on alone,” said Terry Resetar, mother-in-law of the slain officer, Charles Joseph Gliniewicz, 52.
The veteran officer had also indicated he was planning to retire later this month, said Fox Lake Mayor Donny Schmit, a close friend.
Gliniewicz radioed shortly before 8 a.m. while on routine patrol that he was going to check on some suspicious activity, Lake County sheriff’s spokesman Chris Covelli said at a news conference. (more…)

The GOPe road map to nominate Jeb Bush is becoming more transparent each day.  Since we initially outlined the construct of the establishment republican scheme we have been subjected to consistent criticism by those with a vested interest in either ignoring, or protecting, the fraud.
However, today radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh joined us, and thus begins to awaken an even larger audience.  We can expect the inbound fire to increase exponentially:

“[…] They’re turning to Mitt Romney.  Now, what does that tell you?  It’s more than what’s obvious to you.  It tells you that as far as the Republican Party officialdom, the RNC, the establishment, whatever you want to call them, those candidates are up there not to really win.  They’re up there to split the anti-Bush vote. 

They’re up there to soak up all of the money Bush doesn’t get, and then they are there to drop out eventually when they don’t do well, when they can’t raise enough money because all of it goes to Jeb because that’s the original strategy. Bush is gonna soak up all the money, making it impossible for the others to run. 

This was the strategy before Trump got in.  And the Republican establishment actually hoped for and wanted a lot of candidates.  For example, I think Lindsey Graham announcing was strictly Republican Party tactics.  Lindsey Graham knows he’s not gonna be elected.  Lindsey Graham knows he’s not gonna be nominated.  But in South Carolina he could do something. He could help siphon some money away from Bush.  (more…)

This shooting is going to capture a LOT of attention.

There was a police shooting in Bexar Texas, a suburb of San Antonio, involving two police officers during a domestic disturbance call. The official version of the shooting is described by the Bexar County Sheriff’s office PIO Susan Pamerleau.
IMPORTANT – Watch the CNN affiliate KSAT report before proceeding:

What Pamerleau describes in that press statement segment is NOT what is shown in the video. (more…)

Honest question:

If a candidate registers his or her name for ballot placement, and then does nothing for the entirety of the campaign (literally stays home and does nothing), and the Super-PAC funded organizers run every single aspect of the campaign – without any contact with the candidate – is it legal under current campaign finance laws?

In theory, and, well, quite unbelievably, it sounds like it is perfectly legal.  However, beyond theory, in practice, we are about to find out thanks to Rick Perry.
Rick Perry has dispatched all of his official campaign constructs in Iowa with the exception of one paid campaign worker:

[Via USA Today] Presidential candidate Rick Perry now has just one paid staffer left on his Iowa team but plans to continue seeking Iowans’ votes for the GOP caucuses, aides told The Des Moines Register on Monday morning.
