“CABAL“: the contrived schemes of a group of persons secretly united in a plot (as to overturn a government); also: a group engaged in such schemes…

In a rather remarkable article today [Time Article Here] there is an interesting outline of several leftist groups who aligned to influence the 2020 election.  One of the interesting aspects is their admission to secret and close coordination with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce; a notorious Wall Street-focused multinational lobbying outfit.

According to the article the U.S. CoC (Tom Donohue Inc.) had an agreement with big labor (AFL-CIO Richard Trumpka etc.) to coordinate their efforts to remove the “America-First” agenda represented by President Trump.  Their alignment was essentially a predictable outcome as both groups rely on Big Government and multinational corporate favoritism.

TIME – […] “the result of an informal alliance between left-wing activists and business titans. The pact was formalized in a terse, little-noticed joint statement of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and AFL-CIO published on Election Day.”

Joining with the Corporate effort were left-wing activist groups, and specifically mentioned is Norm Eisen, ie. “Team Lawfare”.  Eisen was the lead democrat surrogate amid the original impeachment effort.

In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.

“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”

“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

It shouldn’t come as a surprise, yet it does.  According to a segment aired tonight on Tucker Carlson television show, Bank of America sent customer purchasing history to federal agencies to assist in their investigation of persons who attended the January 6th protest in Washington DC.  WATCH THIS:

Again, demonstrating the ramifications from a lack of privacy protection, the assembly of an enemies list has been part of the overall investigation.  Gizmodo outlined how the phone numbers of Parler users were tracked using GPS and also used by investigators [SEE HERE] However, in contrast to the reality of the situation, the owners of Parler still claim no user data was ever collected.

According to Tucker Carlson’s reporting one Bank of America was customer was targeted, interrogated and released after nothing was discovered.  However, this type of exploitation should serve as a warning to Americans…. There is a big brother, and that system can/will be weaponized by government if/when an ideological administration is in power.

The Screen Actors Guild (SAG) had reportedly opened an investigation of Donald Trump by referring the January 6th DC protest/riot to the union’s disciplinary committee.  A rather ironic and ideologically driven effort to further Alinsky the former President.

When you think about the level of institutional pedophilia in the Hollywood circle, it is rather ridiculous they would take exception to a political speech.  Then again, this is Hollywood at its most hypocritical and ideological.  President Trump responds:

An interesting compare-&-contrast arises amid reports out today of Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, getting a book deal to publish his memoir “Beautiful Things”.

The controversial life of Hunter Biden includes abusive relationships, sex scandals, drug use and retaining a position of affluence by trading on his father’s position in government.  Everything surrounding Hunter Biden is not only sketchy, it is the life of a very troubled, manipulative, opportunistic and creepy person… e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g.

(Via AP) […] The book is called “Beautiful Things” and will center on the younger Biden’s well publicized struggles with substance abuse, according to Gallery Books, an imprint of Simon & Schuster. Acquired in the fall of 2019, “Beautiful Things” was kept under wraps even as Biden’s business dealings became a fixation of then-President Donald Trump and others during the election and his finances a matter of investigation by the Justice Department.  (read more)

As many people are aware, book deals are a way for politicians and their allies to launder payments for influence either by the publisher or by those who purchase bulk quantities in order to direct funds without legal restrictions to politicians and their family members.

Friend of the TreeHouse John Spiropoulos files a ground report to showcase some lesser contemplated impacts from the COVID-19 regulatory rules and restrictions.  As John shares:

“The larger story is the impact on their “customers” — young ballplayers. My report is about one small business involved in one sport in one state. The shutdowns have hurt every young player in every sport, tens of millions of them. Youth sports fulfill a vital role in a young person’s life, providing valuable life lessons. It matters not whether they make it to the “next level” or whether that’s even their desire.”

According to Fox Business Parler CEO John Matze has been removed by the small group of owners of Parler.  Rebekah Mercer (financial aspects) and Dan Bongino (public face) are pushing back against the reasoning that Matze is sharing with the public.

At the 30,000 ft level the outline of the problems are clear.  Both elements within the ownership group have issues.

It was not surprising to see the trouble they encountered with re-platforming the social media network.

First, here’s the report:

EXCLUSIVE – Parler has terminated CEO John Matze, according to a memo Matze sent to staffers that has been obtained by Fox News.

“On January 29, 2021, the Parler board controlled by Rebekah Mercer decided to immediately terminate my position as CEO of Parler. I did not participate in this decision,” Matze wrote. “I understand that those who now control the company have made some communications to employees and other third parties that have unfortunately created confusion and prompted me to make this public statement.”
