An interesting and unique way to support a candidate has surfaced on a Facebook page “Truckers for Trump“.

“Calling all Trucker Patriots that are Owner/Operators. Trying to get a count of how many of you would be interested in directly helping Donald Trump Win the White House. Need white box trucks that can accept Trump banners. Can be boxes from 12-53 feet. Now is the time to step up to the plate and show Trump that we are Really willing to pitch in!”…  (FB LINK HERE)

People who are wondering why Donald Trump might be referencing some historical Clinton issues, might do well to refresh their memory on how vengeful Clinton staffers trashed the White House when Vice-President Al Gore lost to George W Bush in 2000.

When considering how the office of the presidency is regarded by the Clintons, a new generation of voters may not know about Team Clinton: writing vulgar messages on the White House office walls, destroying furniture, slicing chair cushions, ripping phones out of walls, removing the historical door knobs, stealing items, switching around the fax machines, gluing desk drawers closed, carving into desk tops, removing the “w” key from all the computer keyboards, and much worse.

Here’s the 200+ page General Accounting Office (GAO) report: (more…)

In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “2016 Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the Presidential Race and/or any of the candidates therein.

This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.

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 †

Enrique Marquez was previously charged (complaint filing below), now the grand jury has also returned an indictment.

RIVERSIDE, Calif. –  A friend of one of the shooters in the San Bernardino massacre that killed 14 people was indicted Wednesday on charges that include conspiring in a pair of previous planned attacks and making false statements when he bought the guns used in this month’s shootings, authorities said.

The indictment by a federal grand jury avoids the need for a probable cause hearing before a judge to determine whether 24-year-old Enrique Marquez Jr. should stand trial on the five counts.

The charges include conspiring with shooter Syed Farook to carry out attacks in 2011 and 2012. (more…)

As much as most of us dislike Salem Media lapdog Hugh Hewitt, he finally makes the point that needs to be underlined about Donald Trump -vs- Hillary Clinton when referencing history.

A 2016 voter who was a teen during Bill Clinton’s time in the White House, is now a thirty something voter who might be learning about the history of Clinton scandals for the first time.   There is an entire generation of the electorate who might be completely oblivious to how vengeful Hillary Clinton was against Bill’s victims.

In addition, how many people under the age 30 know about Team Clinton destroying the White House when Al Gore lost to George W Bush? (more…)

A new poll from Nevada conducted by Gravis Marketing shows a similar trend to other early state polls, and is in alignment with recent national polls:

Gravis Marketing, a nonpartisan research and political marketing firm, conducted a random survey of 909 registered, likely voters using a registered voter database  in Nevada. (more…)

We are in an era when many people are following politics a little more closely than usual, that’s a good thing.  However, for many a paradigm shift is needed:

Modern GOPe presidential politics are not dependent on winning your vote, we are in an era when presidential politics is focused on “winning the office” – there is a big difference.  The former is irrelevant when the latter is achieved.

Current political science classes are focused on teaching political theorem through the prism of history, but historical references are less accurate than ever before.  The new age of the Atwater/Rove approach is based on using the foundation of ‘Citizens United’ to protect the professional political class.

When you understand the goal of the professional candidate is to achieve the office, and not to necessarily win your vote, we can find increased clarity on campaign behavior.

A vote for a given candidate is valuable.   However, when you are inside the professional political class, a non-vote is just as valuable.  (more…)
