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 †
Politics is an industry, a business – an old business; and like all industries there are leaders within that industry who are more influential than others. Those leaders or industry directors follow the same playbook whenever their grip on political power is threatened.
Right now the directive is to gather information to use against the vulgarian insurgency. In politic-speak it’s called “opposition research”. Part of the needed data is to collect “soundbites” that can be used to attack the insurgency in the field of public media consumption.
We already know the Jeb Bush Super-PACs are planning to deluge the electorate with anti-Trump messaging within the next several weeks. Candidate Donald Trump has forewarned his supporters of the impending storm. However, if we are going to cut it down to brass tacks, it must be accepted the RNC is part of the apparatus that benefits from the removal of Trump. (more…)
A new Monmouth University Poll (valid poll for debate determinations) shows Donald Trump crushing Jeb Bush and the GOPe splitter field. The central part of the RNC/GOPe evaluative risk is identified in the following Monmouth Poll paragraph:
[…] “None of the establishment candidates is having any success in getting an anti-Trump vote to coalesce around them. In fact, any attempt to take on Trump directly only seems to make him stronger.” (link)
Look closely at the collective polling within the GOPe “splitter crew”:
It’s important for political observers to remember that for every poll you see there are dozens of “internal polls”, paid for by the party apparatus and campaigns, that you don’t see.
Many of those are micro-polls on key states, and district-by-district level match-ups. It’s the internals that drive the behavior we later witness from the visible participants in the RNC/GOPe apparatus. It’s those internals that proactively took Reince Priebus to New York today. (more…)
Hired by election and fully supported by her community, county clerk Kim Davis is handcuffed and jailed by a U.S. Marshall and federal judge. Note that Davis is afforded no religious accommodation by the same federal government which mandates -by law- religious accommodation within the private sector for all employees.
And the social justice warrior crowd is gleeful…..

Numerous reports are surfacing that a Texas police officer was murdered in his home on Monday. However, there are disputed rumors and sketchy claims about motive and intents surrounding the homicide. Evaluate cautiously.
(Via Breitbart) – An Abilene, Texas, police officer who was found dead in his home on Monday is now suspected to have been murdered, according to authorities. Officials appear to be holding information about the officer’s death close to the vest.
After finding Abilene Police Officer Don Allen dead in his home on Monday, investigators are now saying it appears his death is a homicide, according to a report by CBS News. It is not believed; however, that he was targeted simply for being a police officer. (more…)
Well this wouldn’t look good in advance of Hillary’s own testimony. Nothing sketchy here. Move along, move along….
(via Daily Caller) The State Department IT worker who managed Hillary Clinton’s private email server while she was secretary of state will plead the Fifth Amendment if called to testify about his work on the Democratic presidential candidate’s mysterious email setup, his attorney informed the House Select Committee on Benghazi this week.
The committee subpoenaed Bryan Pagliano on Aug. 11, according to The Washington Post. In addition to testifying on Sept. 10, committee chairman Trey Gowdy asked Pagliano to produce documents related to the servers he managed on behalf of Clinton.
Pagliano worked on Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign before moving over to the State Department in May 2009, several months after Clinton took office. He left the agency at the same time as Clinton, in Feb. 2013. (more…)

On August 6th in front of a national audience Donald Trump refused to pledge support for any GOP candidate, and refused to pledge he would not run an independent campaign. In my opinion it was the most publicly brave political act witnessed in the last two decades.
It takes remarkable courage and commitment to principle to stand on the national stage and be the only person to raise your hand. It would have been easier, more politically favorable, and essentially irrelevant in the long term, for Trump to make the pledge. But he didn’t, he took the path of principle. For many, myself included, that moment won Donald Trump the debate.
However, there is now an establishment movement within the GOP to force Republican candidates to sign a loyalty oath. A report surfaces today that RNC Chair Reince Priebus is meeting with Donald Trump tomorrow at 2pm in New York. The presumption is that Donald will be asked to take this pledge: (more…)
