Last evening in response to the carefully designed controversy constructed by the Clinton/Bush campaign, Donald Trump released the following statement:
I’ve never said I’m a perfect person, nor pretended to be someone that I’m not. I’ve said and done things I regret, and the words released today on this more than a decade-old video are one of them. Anyone who knows me, know these words don’t reflect who I am.
I said it, it was wrong, and I apologize.
Made a promise to watch out for a family near central Florida without Dad home. Tree came down and blocked their house exit so me and the boys took a pre-loaded truck, tools and headed out late last night to assist.
Worked chainsaws with shop lights and generators all night to clear 3 houses, then four, then five… well, you get the picture; and make sure all is ok. All is good.
Trees cleared, stacked, everyone safe. Roofs check, all ok. Promise fulfilled.
While we worked through night, several moms, kids and a bunch of neighbors -super nice peeps- made boxes of sandwiches for relief workers etc… seemed like a party. God, how we all love this country.
Daybreak, packed up and headed to into FP&L staging area where they were waiting to hook up with line crews from Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia prepping to head north along FL, GA and SC coast. We gave the scruffs the styro-coolers of food, sandwiches, snacks and drinks to pass out along the way. More awesome people.

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 †

John Podesta was Bill Clinton’s former Chief of Staff and long-term member of the Clinton inner circle. Today WikiLeaks has dropped a database file of over 2,000+ emails from Podesta to Hillary Clinton and various operatives within the Clinton team.
Use the comment section to draw attention to anything you find of particular interest.
Have fun reading. Example:
“My dream is a hemispheric common market, with open trade and open borders, some time in the future with energy that is as green and sustainable as we can get it, powering growth and opportunity for every person in the hemisphere”.

The attacks against the Donald Trump candidacy will not stop. The various constructs of the professional political class, the UniParty, Wall Street, DC, K-Street and the entire apparatus of the corporate media complex have no alternative.
Donald Trump will always remain as the existential threat to their entire financial and ideological construct.
Those who oppose Donald Trump’s candidacy are holding a no retreat position. There is no middle ground. If Hillary Clinton is defeated, all those mentioned entities lose. There are trillions of dollars at stake. The entire life’s work of major leftist organizations will be destroyed. It really is that simple.
If you are waiting for all of those oppositional forces to stop lying, scheming, falsifying, manipulating and gaslighting – stop waiting; they will never cease. Period.

While the responding local, city and state officials have done an outstanding job prudently communicating with the public and warning people to evacuate, some in he media seem to have lost their minds with over-the-top hurricane Matthew hyperbole.
Here’s a summary of segments showing how Fox News host Shepard Smith covered Hurricane Matthew yesterday as it approached the Florida coast.
The Hurricane Warning has been extended northeastward to Surf City North Carolina. The Hurricane Warning from Sebastian Inlet to Cocoa Beach Florida has been changed to a Tropical Storm Warning. The Tropical Storm Warning south of Sebastian Inlet has been discontinued. The storm surge inbound into South Carolina is the largest concern. 26 Million people currently under Hurricane watch/warning.
