It looks like Trump is winning against Fox News. In an article written by Politico today the infamous Trump-hater Megyn Kelly is quoted as saying she no longer wants to talk about Donald Trump.

[…]  “He’s a passionate man, and I think that passion has appealed to a lot of voters, and has surprised a lot of people,” she said. “I think that’s all I’m going to say.”

(Via Politico) Fox News anchor and show host Megyn Kelly, who has been lambasted by presidential frontrunner Donald Trump since the first Republican national debate, said she was done talking about her feud with the candidate during a one-on-one discussion with Cosmopolitan editor Joanna Coles Monday morning during an Advertising Week panel.
“I don’t want to talk about Donald Trump any more, truly,” she said after several questions from Coles about Trump’s continued criticism. “He has captured the attention of the electorate, and huge sections of the Republican base. I think he’s a fighter, and that appeals to a lot of people. That appeals to a lot of people, and when he is upset at someone, he fights even harder.” (more…)

Our favorite ideological cabinet member appeared on CBS this morning replete with new linguistic skills.  Listen to question at 01:58, and within the answer: “de-conflict” … it reappears a few minutes later in another retort.

Transparently predictable political maneuvering.  With Joe Biden about to enter race and Bernie Sanders dominating from the left – Hillary throws elbows:

“I was in a unique position as secretary of State at the start of this process. And not wanting to interfere with ongoing decision making that the president and Sec. Kerry have to do in order to make whatever final decisions they need. So I thought this would be decided by now, and therefore I could tell you whether I agree or disagree, but it hasn’t been decided and I feel now I’ve got a responsibility to you and voters who ask me about this. I think it is imperative that we look at the Keystone Pipeline as what I believe it is, a distraction from important work we have to do on climate change. And unfortunately from my perspective, one that interferes with our ability to move forward with all the other issues. Therefore I oppose it. “ (link)

I believe this is the Q&A that has created a stir:

Over a month ago (August 19th) we shared:
It is critical to remember.

The professional power brokers who make up the RNC/GOPe “establishment” would rather see Hillary Clinton win an election, allowing them to remain in their power position, than to lose their place at the trough via a “conservative” or “outsider” who would take the executive branch and possibly remove their power.

The article conjures up images of Kerry and Obama playing the roles of Herve Villechaize and Ricardo Montalban waiting for the planes to arrive on Fantasy Island…. “Da Plane, Da plane”!

(Via NBC) The U.S. is offering new details about its plan to ease the Syrian refugee crisis by significantly increasing the number of worldwide refugees it will take in over the next two years.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry says the U.S. will accept 85,000 refugees from around the world next year, up from 70,000, and the number will rise to 100,000 in 2017. (more…)

As many people thoroughly anticipated the back-story to the 14-year-old briefcase clockmaker reflects his father is actually a rather controversial Muslim activist.  This lends further credence toward a reasonable belief that his taking a briefcase clock to school was not as innocent as the media would lead everyone to believe.
UPDATE:  In his own words Ahmed Mohamed, 14, an Irving MacArthur High student essentially states he knew taking the device to school was controversial.  Listen at 1:26 video:

“I closed it with a cable, so… because, I didn’t want to lock it to make it seem like a threat so I just used simple cable…. so it won’t look that much suspicious”.

That’s what you call an admission of premeditation and intent.  In his own words, with forethought, he knew the briefcase with wires and “a countdown clock” would be “suspicious”; especially around 9/11.
Update#2 – We are not the only people to pick up on the admitted “intent”. Follow THIS LINK – To see exactly how it was engineered and the kids’ story gets even more sketchy. (more…)

[Hungary] On Monday, Hungary closed the last remaining hole in the 175-kilometer (109 mile) fence it has been built along the southern border to Serbia, one of the final stations on the Western Balkan route to Europe that has been the focal point in recent days of tens of thousands of refugees making their way from Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan and North Africa.

On Tuesday, a new law went into effect in Hungary making illegal border crossings an offense punishable by up to three years in jail. The developments came as Germany and Austria both imposed border controls to stem the massive influx of refugees on the final leg of the path to Western Europe. (more…)

BEN CARSON WINS ! BEN CARSON WINS ! BEN CARSON WINS !…

It was last month, amid the failing direct GOPe attacks against Donald Trump, when we predicted Wall Street/Team Jeb’s approach would shift to promoting Ben Carson instead.  We even shared their targeted date to peak Carson would be the CNN debate.  All media (Madison Ave., Hollywood, Park Row) would be called in for the assist.

Iowa poll okay for Trump, if right, but terrific for Ben Carson, also topping favorability by very big margin.

Well?…..  After two weeks of continual pro-Carson push, tonight -coincidentally- SURPRISE !! Maryland announces Ben Carson wins the “month long” straw Poll:

Within three weeks following the Fox News debate, and amid the reality of a surging Donald Trump, an email arrives from the RNC looking for a $3 donation.  The hook was promising entry into a contest to win tickets to the Colorado Debate.
I’m sure that 99% of the targeted recipients viewed this solicitation as innocuous, just another gimmicky political stunt.  However, for those -like us- watching carefully this email request held additional meaning.

♦ The first flag was the “sender”, it wasn’t a traditional participant in the RNC apparatus, it was actually signed by Karl Rove; when did Karl Rove become an official member inside the RNC apparatus?
♦ Secondly, Karl Rove was in Colorado two days earlier (fox news satellite appearance on Sean Hannity Fox Broadcast from Colorado).  ♦ Third, within 72 hours of the email, Colorado announced cancellation of their primary caucus:

Colorado will not vote for a Republican candidate for president at its 2016 caucus after party leaders approved a little-noticed shift that may diminish the state’s clout in the most open nomination contest in the modern era.
The GOP executive committee has voted to cancel the traditional presidential preference poll after the national party changed its rules to require a state’s delegates to support the candidate that wins the caucus vote. (link)

Perhaps merely a coincidence – however, given the GOPe prior activity underpinning the now fully evidenced GOPe road map, there’s not much “coincidental” amid these interests.

If you thought Secretary Kerry’s 2013 “Jobs for Jihadists” program was goofy, wait until you read about this one. 
The U.S. federal government is announcing a new program called CVE (Counter Violent Extremism) in Minneapolis Minnesota.  Under the U.S. program, authorized by President Obama, Somali Muslims living in Minnesota will be paid not to go on terror rampages. or blow themselves up. 

…”Led by a taskforce of 15 Somali Americans and a traditional community grant-making organization, the Counter Violent Extremism (CVE) program is the brainchild of the chief federal prosecutor for Minnesota, Andrew Luger. […]  The goal is to prevent youth recruitment by overseas extremist groups such as Isis or al-Shabaab”…. 

Any individual found engaged in an act of violent jihad will have their monthly payment stopped, and all federal income subsides removed. They’re calling it “crime prevention“, so there’s always that….
(VIA GUARDIAN) Hibaaq Osman has a glow that changes the energy in a room, or in her case, the energy of the restaurant her family owns in Karmel mall, the oldest Somali mall in Minneapolis. The cafe is right near the mosque on the top floor of the building, past rows of entrepreneurs selling wares in individual stalls, sipping hot drinks in small cups and chatting in Somali.
Osman retains her glow, even in anger. And after a press conference held outside the mosque, she is upset. (more…)
