For people who might not have followed the story as it unfolded there’s an easier explanation for why Iran is holding Jason Rezaian. The underpinning is Iran knowing the U.S. State Department and CNN collaborate to use media as a tool to advance U.S. foreign policy objectives.
In December 2014 CNN ran and episode of Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown filmed in Iran. It seemed innocuous at the time, yet as with all things Turner Broadcasting, it also seemed to be another set up for a larger political agenda item. (more…)
The GOPe DC apparatchik (writ large) are all-in with their demands to support Representative Paul Ryan as the next Speaker of the House (SoH).
Freedom Caucus Chairman Jim Jordan appeared on Fox News Sunday to outline what the problems are, and it has less to do with Paul Ryan “the Speaker” – and more to do with removing the GOPe stranglehold; ie. the GOPe demand on the apparatus of power.
Jim Jordan articulates the problem. The essence of the problem is what the media and GOPe want to hide.
Within those rules Jordan is describing you find out why so many of the House of Representatives are frustrated with a UniParty leadership team that demands compliance to a regime interest that remains antithetical to the desires of the electorate who sent them there.
The GOPe leadership (Boehner, McCarthy, McConnell, Cornyn) are beholden to Wall Street, The U.S. Chamber of Commerce and K-Street, they refuse to be beholden to the will of the electorate. (more…)
This video should go viral. Alas this confrontation is what the Western Media NEED to hide from an awakened electorate who are absolutely in agreement with Nigel Farage !!
Priceless. Absolutely priceless. Especially the aghast look on Merkel and Hollande’s faces.
W.O.L.V.E.R.I.N.E.S !!
[ *NOTE* Watch closely who picks up on this attack approach and you’ll identify an even larger number of the GOPe deceivers than were visible before. ]
Brett Baier interviewed Donald Trump for his Fox News Special Report segment and carried with him a specifically pre-framed angle of attack, an agenda. Baier used the Club for Growth argument (see video: @3:34) for conversation about Eminent Domain.
(Via The Hill) Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz has issued an edict that sells short the soul of the party of the people.
There will only be six presidential debates for Democrats in the 2016 cycle, and any candidate who participates in any others will be banned from the DNC debates. As recently as Wednesday, Wasserman Schultz, sounding like Vladimir Putin dictating to the Russian Politburo, declared that she will not budge on this.
Here is a proposal for Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley and other Democratic candidates for the nation’s highest office: You should join together to publicly state that if any respected organization wishes to hold additional debates, you will participate in defiance of the Putin-like commands from Washington.

After it was announced that Speaker John Boehner was retiring, conservative radio talk show host Mark Levin said don’t elect Kevin McCarthy to the speakership because McCarthy is just like Eric Cantor except 10 IQ points lower. Last night McCarthy proved Levin was correct.
Kevin McCarthy appears on Sean Hannity show and gives the Democrats defending Hillary Clinton an atomic sledgehammer to wield against Trey Gowdy and the Senate Select Committee on Benghazi. Listen (video prompted to 4:04):
https://youtu.be/J8KYu-3o9D8?t=4m4s
Essentially what McCarthy is saying, when viewed from the perspective of how the Democrat political punditry will use it, is that the Gowdy committee is only in place to damage candidate Hillary Clinton politically.
Is it any wonder why today reports from inside the beltway who opine that Trey Gowdy is ready to hang it up? Seriously. (more…)
Back in 2009/2010 Zuckerberg and Obama were discussing the use of Facebook for the Arab Spring objectives, so this latest revelation comes as no surprise.
(CNBC) German Chancellor Angela Merkel was overheard confronting Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg over incendiary posts on the social network, Bloomberg reported on Sunday, amid complaints from her government about anti-immigrant posts in the midst of Europe’s refugee crisis.
On the sidelines of a United Nations luncheon on Saturday, Merkel was caught on a hot mic pressing Zuckerberg about social media posts about the wave of Syrian refugees entering Germany, the publication reported. (more…)
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.
