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 †

The February trade gap widened by about a half-billion dollars to — $62.9 billion
(Via CNBC) First-quarter growth is now tracking at just 0.9 percent, after new data showed surprising weakness in consumer spending and a wider-than-expected trade gap.
According to the CNBC/Moody’s Analytics rapid update, economists now see the sluggish growth pace based on already reported data, down from 1.4 percent last week. According to the rapid update, economists have a median forecast of 1.6 percent growth in first-quarter GDP, which includes their estimates for data not yet released. (more…)
On Friday March 25th Mark Levin finally dropped his crony-constitutional shtick and admitted he preferred to see the U.S. brought to it’s knees. In a very revealing two hour broadcast he railed against trade “tariffs” claiming they were in direct opposition to the needs of the Chinese, Asian and European economies.
He followed up by saying Mitch McConnell was using the National Republican Senatorial Committee to perpetrate fraud against America. Quoting the example of Thad Cochran’s re-election bid, Levin went on to say how horrid the construct of the NRSC is. Of course, in order to reconcile his current endorsement for Senator Ted Cruz, Levin has to skip the part where Cruz was Vice-Chair of the NRSC when the Cochran fraud was presented.
Funny how that works.
But Levin is not alone in his new found exposure aligning himself with Jeb Bush, Paul Ryan and Mitt Romney as they collectively campaign and endorse Senator Cruz. Oh, how the globalist intents make for such brilliantly exposed bedfellows when the covers are pulled back. (more…)
Charlie Sykes has been a considerable mouthpiece for the GOPe in Wisconsin for more than a few years. Staying away from the rather colorful (and intensely hypocritical) personal history of Sykes, he’s been a rabid member of the #NeverTrump campaign in the same vitriolic vein as Eric Erickson.
Today Carlie Sykes interviewed Donald Trump. The disdain and contempt Sykes holds for presidential candidate Donald Trump was/is palpable. The listening audience certainly gained a full comprehension for Sykes contemptuous feelings:
Those who follow politics the closest know the strategic reasoning for rebel alliance members to remain as small as possible as they work to diligently gather ground support toward the most successful of accomplishments. The elimination of Eric Cantor did not come from a bellicose, and highly visible campaign.
Cold Anger is not driven to act in spite of itself; instead it drives a reckoning. Like a long-term battered spouse on the eve of a pre-planned exit, those who are no longer willing to accept the battered conservative syndrome think strategically, methodically, carefully…
In November of 2013 we sent out a clarion call to those who understand politics the best; a warning per se’, predicting what would happen in 2015/2016 if Mitch McConnell was reelected. In hindsight, today, even our largest detractors admit we were correct. That’s the backdrop for this: (more…)
(Via Reuters) A police officer was shot and wounded on Monday in the U.S. Capitol complex and the gunman captured, a source citing information from the Sergeant-at-Arms office in Congress said.
Gunshots were heard in the U.S. Capitol Visitors Center and workers were told to shelter. The source said the officer’s wounds were not serious. Congress is in recess, with few lawmakers in Washington. (link)
Fox News is now being told that there is no Capitol police officer down and that the situation is still very fluid.https://t.co/PgExXElUhL

Donald Trump “Fox & Friends” FULL interview discussing Belgium, Terrorism, Safety and Security, World View, The National Enquirer and presidential opponent Senator Ted Cruz:
Senator Ted Cruz has been called Lyin’ Ted Cruz, by his campaign opponents due to the frequency of his telling outright lies. The frequency of falsehood is so excessive Politifact actually did a story about 90 random Cruz assertions which were checked and only 6% of his statements are actually TRUE, only 16% had SOME TRUTH.
Yesterday Senator Cruz appeared on Fox News Sunday (full video here) and was caught in several more lies to add to his abysmal record.
One of the more egregious claims was when Cruz stated he immediately denounced the Melania Trump attack ads (mailers in Utah) put forth by a Pro-Cruz Super-PAC. No such denouncement, prior to the Utah election, ever took place.
