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 †
A recent Texas poll of 1,531 “registered voters” and 1,293 “likely voters” shows Ted Cruz and Donald Trump essentially tied. Ted Cruz being more successful in West Texas, and Donald Trump being more successful in North Texas. If Senator Ted Cruz loses Texas, his candidacy is effectively over – that’s why he’s campaigning in Texas right now.
DALLAS – Six days before Super Tuesday, Ted Cruz and Donald Trump are now tied in Texas, according to a new public opinion poll commissioned by WFAA-TV.
Cruz and Trump both had 32 percent support from likely and actual GOP primary voters, with a 3.9 percent margin of error.
It is the most recent survey of Texas voters and the first one to show Cruz no longer leading in his home state.
“He’s fading,” said Cal Jillson, professor of political science at Southern Methodist University, of Ted Cruz’s candidacy. “Trump has proven to be stronger and more resilient than anyone expected.” (more…)
Former presidential candidate Mitt Romney is going “full Mississippi” with claims about Donald Trump’s taxes. It doesn’t matter that there is no basis for the ridiculous assertions – the truth and/or facts are not what matters when you go “full Mississippi”…. it’s a strategy!
The absolute worst thing Donald Trump could do is to respond to it. Responding to the provocation is exactly what they want. Dismiss it like you would swat an annoying gnat.
Mitt Romney – “The reason that I think there’s a bombshell in there is because every time he’s asked about his taxes he dodges and delays and says, ‘Well we’re working on it,'” Romney told Fox News.
“We’re now, you know, in late February and we still haven’t seen either Donald Trump’s or Marco Rubio’s or Ted Cruz’s taxes,” he added, referring to the two US senators challenging Trump for the nomination.
“Frankly the voters have a right to see those tax returns before they decide who our nominee ought to be.” (link)
There is a specific reason why Mitt Romney is saying this. There is also a specific reason why this specific reason, income taxes, is being used. Here’s what’s going on. (more…)
When little known Chris McDaniel beat entrenched republican senator Thad Cochran in the first Mississippi primary of 2014 it triggered a series of events that became known simply as “Mississippi ’14“.
The entrenched DC republican elite developed a plan to destroy McDaniel before the run-off primary. They decided to call McDaniel a racist, pay for print and broadcast attack ads, request help from black Mississippi pastors, and pay Democrats, preachers and voters to vote in the run-off election. Republicans in DC attacking a republican outsider.
Their Machiavellian plan worked. In the run-off Chris McDaniel again beat Thad Cochran with republican voters, but the paid-to-vote Democrats lifted Cochran back onto the throne in the elite Republican Chamber.
Against the desperation of a South Carolina victory for Donald Trump, and now a Nevada victory for Donald Trump, the DC Republican team have re-enlisted the exact same players to roll out a similar nuclear attack approach against the ‘outsider republican’. (more…)
There are a few media presentations as well as the video of the District Attorney press conference below. It is interesting to note something slipped out that many researchers previously speculated. Champion was previously misleading the public during media interviews.
Because of the intimacy of the crime, and because it was a lone individual (who never said a word), there wasn’t any “street talk”. The absence of chatter was clearly stated early and often by both DA Champion and Sheriff Darby (mostly Champion).
However, Champion repeatedly said the investigators were chasing numerous tips called in – he actually said “hundreds of calls”. In the presser today Champion admits there were only two calls ever made to the tip line:
[…] “We hoped early on that some people would come forward, but we got nothing. Even after the reward went up to $54,000, we only got two calls.”
Here’s video of the presser:
Melania Trump appeared on MSNBC for an interview with Mika Brzezinski. A one-on-one interview discussing growing up in Slovenia, her marriage and her husband’s campaign.
