Donald Trump In New Hampshire Today – Update: Video Added…

Still looking for video of the rally/speech, but looks like a very enthusiastic audience:
UPDATE: Thanks Jackntx for the video link:
The YouTube ID of 4U2wm2AIyC4?feature=player_embedded is invalid.


New Hampshire is important at the moment because Team Jeb and the Right To Rise Super-PAC is swarming the airwaves running 24/7 campaign ads trying to rescue Jeb Bush’s campaign there. (more…)

DNC Highlights Party Values – Wasserman-Schultz Threatens To Ban Candidates Who Participate in Non-Sanctioned Debates…

Any Democrat Presidential Candidate found to be in non-compliance with the party speech edict will find themselves subject to the enforcement mechanisms !

(Via The Hill) Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz has issued an edict that sells short the soul of the party of the people.
jackbootsDebbie Wasserman Schultz
There will only be six presidential debates for Democrats in the 2016 cycle, and any candidate who participates in any others will be banned from the DNC debates. As recently as Wednesday, Wasserman Schultz, sounding like Vladimir Putin dictating to the Russian Politburo, declared that she will not budge on this.
Here is a proposal for Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley and other Democratic candidates for the nation’s highest office: You should join together to publicly state that if any respected organization wishes to hold additional debates, you will participate in defiance of the Putin-like commands from Washington.

The Vulgarian Effect – Congressional Republicans Trying To Trump Up Their Conservative Credentials…

At the beginning of last month we shared – There is an expression:

“I will leave you naked before your enemies”…

A proactive assertion essentially stating: if you chose to engage in war with me – not only do I promise your defeat against my interests, but I will lay you open to exposure from all adversaries – who will then take advantage of your new vulnerability.

boehner_cowardly_lion-95800_420x206mcconnell-cornyn

Presidential Candidate Donald Trump is doing a remarkable job filling the role behind this proclamation. In a seismic political shift Trump has gone far beyond drawing a line in the sand. He has openly dug a trench on his pre-selected battle space within conservative encampments.

Without any apology or hidden motive, he has filled the trench with a highly explosive electorate fuel (the result from years of Republican lies and deceit) and he is openly standing behind his formation twirling a Zippo while looking toward the deceivers.

As a direct result of this approach the enemy inside the wire is being forced to expose themselves. The various “Robert’s-The Bruce”, per se’, are in a precarious position of attacking -in vain effort to retain the necessary ruse- however, consequently exposing their alignment with usurping powers of Machiavellian intent.

Three days ago Speaker of the House John Boehner announces his stepping-down and no-longer running for office.
Now today, this shows up (notice too it’s published in National Review):


Where the HECK was this 10 months ago? (more…)

Mark Levin Was Right – Kevin McCarthy Is an Idiot….

After it was announced that Speaker John Boehner was retiring, conservative radio talk show host Mark Levin said don’t elect Kevin McCarthy to the speakership because McCarthy is just like Eric Cantor except 10 IQ points lower.  Last night McCarthy proved Levin was correct.
Kevin McCarthy appears on Sean Hannity show and gives the Democrats defending Hillary Clinton an atomic sledgehammer to wield against Trey Gowdy and the Senate Select Committee on Benghazi.  Listen (video prompted to 4:04):
https://youtu.be/J8KYu-3o9D8?t=4m4s
Essentially what McCarthy is saying, when viewed from the perspective of how the Democrat political punditry will use it, is that the Gowdy committee is only in place to damage candidate Hillary Clinton politically.
Is it any wonder why today reports from inside the beltway who opine that Trey Gowdy is ready to hang it up?  Seriously. (more…)

USA Today Poll: Donald Trump Gains 6 More Points Widens Lead…

Boy howdy the media are doing everything they can to avoid recognizing/broadcasting the obvious.  By using small poll sample sizes and trying to manipulate the data outcome the legacy media are trying desperately to play down the growing support for presidential candidate Donald Trump.
Alas, the scope of the vulgarian uprising is too large for their smoke and mirrors to hide.

( POLL DATA )
( POLL DATA )

USA TODAY / SUFFOLK POLL – Jeb Bush has dropped from 15% to 8%, essentially half, while Donald Trump was gained 6 points from the same period in July.
[…] The poll of 380 likely Republican primary voters, taken Thursday through Monday, has a margin of error of +/- 5 percentage points. The full sample of 1,000 likely voters has an error margin of 3 points. (link)

Russia Begins Air Campaign In Syria – Air Strikes, Bombing, In Homs and Damascus-Aleppo Corridor…

Russia only gave the United States an hour’s warning ahead of the strikes and did not specify where they would occur, riling many in the Pentagon who had been hoping for clearer and more detailed lines of communication.
A Russian general asked the U.S. to remove its planes from Syrian airspace Wednesday, just hours before Russian airstrikes began there.  It would appear Russia is creating a battle space to re-stabilize Assad…
Syria Banner
assad-putinSYRIA – The Russian three-star general, who was part of the newly formed intelligence cell with Iraq, Iran, and the Syrian government, arrived in Baghdad at 9 a.m. local time and informed U.S. officials that Russian strikes would be starting imminently—and that the U.S. should refrain from conducting strikes and move any personnel out. The only notice the U.S. received about his visit was a phone call one hour earlier.
The Russian strikes were centered about the city of Homs, according to initial accounts in the local press and in social media. That’s significant, because Homs is not known to be an ISIS stronghold. (more…)

Fiscal Year 2015 Ends Today – With It, Our Patience…

Today is September 30th, the final day of fiscal year 2015 for the federal government. Tomorrow, October 1st, begins the first day of Fiscal Year 2016.

McConnell and Boehner
Despite the Republicans controlling both the House of Representatives and the Senate, there is still no federal budget for the fiscal year beginning tomorrow.
Instead of a budget, the Republicans have chosen to advance yet another “Continuing Resolution” (CR), and yet another insufferable debt ceiling increase, to fund federal spending for 2016. A massive slap in the face to the conservative electorate that gave the Republicans majorities in both chambers.
The last federal budget was signed into law in September of 2007 by President George W. Bush. Since that time the federal deficit has exploded due (in no small part) to the 2009 trillion dollar “American Recovery and Reinvestment Act“, commonly known as the “stimulus bill“, that has been embedded in the baseline of federal spending and re-spent every year for the past seven years.
Seven trillion dollars in federal deficit spending specifically because there has never been a budget since Fiscal year 2008.
Both Senate Leader Mitch McConnell, and Speaker of The House John Boehner, swore to the base of the party, if they were given control in November 2014 they would return to “regular order”; regular budgetary order.

They Lied !
