America’s Sunday morning political shows had a synchronized message;
cite an ABC/Washington Post poll on Brexit and Donald Trump showing those Brits
who voted for Brexit were old, uneducated, uninformed xenophobes and Donald
Trump’s popularity is tanking.
The American media monopoly sets the messaging agenda for
the week on Sunday morning. Last Sunday
the messaging centered on Brexit and an ABC/Washington Post poll showing Trump
trailing Hillary Clinton by double digits.
What the media failed to reveal was, of the people polled 36% were Democrats and 24%
Republicans. The Washington Post is owned
by Jeff Bezos who is involved in a very public feud with Donald Trump.
The Trump/Bezos feud began when Trump leveled the charge
that Jeff Bezos owner of Amazon, is using The Washington Post paper to attack
him because as President he would force the massive online retailer to pay more
in taxes. Trump has threatened to go
after Bezos for antitrust violations because he has a monopoly and is getting away
with murder tax-wise. Bezos denied he
used the Post to go after Trump, but Bob Woodward, editor of the Post revealed a
“20 man army”has been assignedto dig up dirt on Trump.
Trump has been a vocal supporter of Brexit and a believer in
national identity, taxing the rich and border control. After his “Trump emblazoned helicopter”
landed in Scotland, Trump congratulated the British people for achieving an exit
from the European Union. Trump went on
to state "I think it's a great thing that's happened. It's an amazing
vote, very historic.” "People are
angry all over the world. They're angry over borders, they're angry over people
coming into the country and taking over and nobody even knows who they are.” "They're angry about many, many things
in the UK, the US and many other places.
The media pounced on Trump citing tanking global markets and
volatility. The Clinton campaign
released a campaign video stating “The last thing we need in volatile times is
a volatile President.”
Now, we know why the media savagely attacked Trump, the
biggest losers from Brexit are the world’s 400 richest people. According to Bloomberg 15 of the wealthiest
people in Britain lost $5.5 billion; Amancio Ortega, Europe’s richest person
lost $6 billion and Bill Gates and Jeff
Bezos lost $1 billion each. So, it’s
pretty evident who the beneficiaries of membership in the European Union are.
Trump went on to further enrage the media when he criticized
President Obama for interfering with the Brexit vote. In May Obama spoke to the people of the UK
threatening trade deals would take ten years if they voted to leave the EU. Trump said “I was surprised that President
Obama would be so bold to come here and tell people what to do.” "I think a lot of people don't like him
and I think if he had not said it I think you're result might have been
different."
Nigel Farage party leader of the pro-Brexit UKIP also harshly
criticized Barack Obama for interfering in the Brexit referendum saying "He
has done the bidding of the giant American corporates who want Britain to stay
in the EU.” "Why? Because they want
this Trans-Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership
deal done so that the big American corporates can buy up chunks of our public services, including the National Health Service - that's a
bigger motivation."
Minutes after the announcement of the Brexit vote, it was announced
a petition bearing 3.5 million signatures requesting a referendum “do over” was
presented to Parliament. But in fact only
353,000 of the 3.5 million signatures are from Britain. Steve Lendman is reporting “tens of thousands
of fake names from America, Germany,
France, Italy, other EU countries,
even Middle East, Asian, Latin American and African nations as well as virtually
uninhabited Antarctica” have been identified.
The global press is owned and funded by the same
billionaires who financially benefit from wars, globalization and banking
cartels. In 2014 the European Union awarded
Rupert Murdoch’s BSkyBunconditional
clearance for its acquisition of Sky Italia and at least 57% of Sky
Deutschland. That gave Murdoch’s media
empire 20 million pay TV subscribers in the U.K., Ireland, Italy, Germany and
Austria. Potentially, Sky Europe will be able to reach up to 97 million
households.
In America, Public Broadcasting is funded in equal parts
from government and the private sector and is governed by a board of directors
that is selected by the President of the United States and confirmed by the
Senate. C-Span is funded by the cable
companies and provides a 24 hour a day platform for the neoconservative and
neoliberal think tanks’ propaganda.
So wake up folks, anything you hear in the media is pure,
unadulterated propaganda designed to intimidate and frighten you into
submission. The media wants you to
believe that those Brits who voted for Brexit were old, uneducated, uninformed
xenophobes and Donald Trump’s popularity is tanking. Don’t buy it follow the Brits and say “we’re
not gonna take it anymore.”
The people in the United Kingdom have spoken and they have
opted for their freedom from the bondage of the CIA creation called the
European Union. America is not so lucky
we remain in bondage. The European Union
was a CIA creation devised after President Truman formed the CIA with the
purpose of destroying national sovereignty.
From David Stockman:
Excerpt:
The “European Movement,” which was
and still is the “grassroots” organization that
relentlessly pushed for the creation of a European super-state, was financed
to the tune of $1 million a year by the“American Committee for a United Europe”
(ACUE), which was founded by Allen Dulles …. who would become a CIA’s director…
Covert US financial support to the European federalist movement
never amounted to “less than half” of the various groups’ budgets. The money
was funneled through the Ford
Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, and other private conduits…
The ACUE agitated for the Marshall
Plan – a giant serving of globaloney that funneled
billions of American taxpayer dollars to postwar Europe – sponsoring speaking tours by pro-unity
European politicians and cultural figures, and putting direct pressure on
Congress to release the funds. Radio programs, print media, and all forms of mass communication were utilized – at taxpayers’ expense – to push the
“European idea.”
Indeed, the American sponsors of this “European” project
directed every aspect of the pro-unity
Astro-turf “movement…” “Papers show
that it treated some of the EU’s ‘founding fathers’ as hired hands, and
actively prevented them finding alternative funding that would have broken
reliance on Washington.”
All of this ancient history should
give us a new perspective on current events. When thousands of demonstrators showed up in the streets of Kiev waving EU flags, and demanding the ouster of
President Viktor Yanukovych, there was nothing spontaneous about it. The “deep state” covert agencies of the
Western powers were in it up to their necks, of that we can be sure…
The fact of the matter is that it
is far easier for Washington to control
Europe with one central authority
at the reins than it is dealing with dozens of separate sovereignties. Indeed,
the very idea of national sovereignty
as the foundation of international relations is something the empire-builders of the Beltway, and
their bag-men in the capitals of Europe, would like to do away with…
The globalist idea is a central
canon of the War Party. For if national
borders are to be erased – and the very concept of national sovereignty
relegated to the dust heap of history – then the job of justifying Washington’s wars is made much easier.
That is the crux of the matter, without borders and national
identity wars are made easier. The
European Union is a pawn to subjugate the member states’ citizens to hideous
austerity and allow the pillaging of their wealth and natural resources. That is what makes the Brexit so earth
shattering and Donald Trump understands this.

The UK has taken back their country: Trump congratulates Britain over
'great' Brexit vote
US presidential hopeful Donald Trump has congratulated the people
of Britain for taking back its country after the momentous Leave vote but
says he does not see Scotland voting for independence. The billionaire said "it is a great thing" because UK have "taken back
their country" as he touched down at his Trump Turnberry golf resort
in Scotland following Britain's decision to leave the European Union.
He arrived in his "Trump"
emblazoned helicopter at the Turnberry resort in South Ayrshire to officially
open the revamped resort he bought in 2014, just an hour after Prime Minister David Cameron sensationally announced his
decision to stand down in October…
He said Obama had been "bold" by endorsing the EU - a
mistake which led to this morning's result…
"I think a lot of people don't like him and I think if he had not
said it I think you're result might have been different." He added: "He got involved, I don't know
if that was through a friendship with David Cameron. "It could have been. I understand
friendship and I can understand why he did it, but I think it is something that
he shouldn't have done. "It's not his country, it's not his
part of the world…
"People are angry all over the world. They're angry over borders,
they're angry over people coming into the country and taking over and nobody
even knows who they are. "They're
angry about many, many things in the UK, the US and many other places.” "This will not be the last."
He said UK divisions "will
heal" as "it is a great place" adding: "I said this was
going to happen and I think it is a great thing. "Basically, they took back their
country. That's a great thing. "I
think we're doing very well in the United States also, and it is essentially the same thing that is happening in the United
States.
Trump is right of course, the people of the world are very
angry and don’t trust the oligarchs who have seized control of their
governments. That is what the Brexit
vote was about, not xenophobia that the corporate media monopoly is
pushing. That is how they divide people
call them racists if they “vote the wrong way”, i.e. against the status quo. The world is sick of Washington’s wars. From Sputnik News:
Excerpt:
Information continues to come in about the Brexit vote. A member of the
British Army said that 90% of the lads in his unit voted to leave.
They voted exit because they do not
believe they should be involved in Washington’s
wars. He said that his unit agreed that the wars are dictated by
Washington, via Brussels, and not by the British people. He also said that that the soldiers were “taking their own pen” to the
ballot box, because “they only use pencils at the polls and they could be
rubbed out and changed.”
Those British lads were wise to take their own pens to the
ballot box, their elections have been rigged just like the American elections
are rigged. But this time they used
paper ballots so Washington’s puppet Cameron couldn’t steal the election. From OpEd News:
Excerpt:
What's the Big Lesson of the UK
'Brexit' Vote for us in the US? It Was Accomplished with Paper Ballots
The decision by a majority of UK
voters to reject membership in the European Union in Wednesday's
hotly-contested referendum has been a devastating
defeat for the corporatist domination of the European political and
economic scene. It throws the corporate duopoly in the UK into turmoil, and
also has the EU bureaucrats and the banking
elite in Brussels and the financial capitals of Europe in a panic, lest other countries' voters, as in Spain and Italy, or
even France and the Netherlands, decide to follow suit.
And the reason the opponents of UK
membership in the EU were able to win against all that powerful opposition,
has, in no small part, to do with the fact that all the voting was done on paper ballots.
Compare that to the US, where voting, for the vast majority of people,
is done on machines, in many cases electronic machines that leave no paper
trail of individual votes, or even of vote totals per machine…
The lesson of Britain's 'Brexit'
referendum, like the hotly contested presidential election I witnessed and
covered in Taiwan in 2004, both of which contests were conducted using paper
ballots, and the latter which was subjected to a recount that returned an
almost identical result after tons of paper and millions of ballots were
painstakingly inspected and hand-counted all over again, is that democracy can only work if voting is
scrupulously honest and absolutely verifiable.
Americans cannot break out of the Wall Street bondage unless
they return to paper ballots. After the
American government was overthrown in 2000 congress passed the Help America
Vote (the right way) Act that codified into law the electronic vote tallying
machines that are privately owned. But
the corruption in our voting process doesn’t stop there. From Fortune:

Wall Street Won't Let Elizabeth Warren Be Hillary Clinton's Vice
President
Democratic Wall Street donors are reportedly warning Hillary Clinton
not to choose Elizabeth Warren as her running mate. The Massachusetts senator has been one of the
most outspoken figures against the banking industry since the 2008 financial
crisis, and donors tell Politico that if Warren is the pick for vice president, it could really hurt Clinton’s donations.
One Democratic donor said putting
Warren on the ticket could drive Clinton’s entire Wall Street base away. Sheila
Krumholz, executive director of the Center for Responsive Politics, says that could
be a huge problem for her. “Things are so volatile now with all of the outside
groups that all it can take is pissing
off one billionaire on Wall Street to make it difficult….”
Screw them, Hillary this campaign is not about how much
money you can raise, all that money is a negative. Get the money out of our elections, look at
Donald Trump he beat 16 candidates heavily financed by billionaires. Hillary 2016 is braindead, get rid of your high
paid advisors, you are running the worst campaign I have ever seen. From CNN:
Excerpt:
Trump's campaign dwarfed by Clinton's
Through the end of last month, the
period covered by the most recent FEC filings, Trump’s campaign spending was
less than a third of Clinton’s ($57 million to $182 million) and Trump had
assembled a staff about one-tenth the size of hers (70 employees to 732), and spent less on offices (Trump last month
paid $101,000 in rent vs. $328,000 for Clinton), the analysis found…
He did little to assemble the
trappings of a traditional campaign during a chaotic primary in which he
dispatched 16 rivals for the Republican presidential nomination, many of whom
ran more traditional, and expensive,
campaigns.
The $57 million Trump had spent
through the end of April is only slightly more than the $54 million spent by Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, who dropped out of
the race more than two months ago, and it’s far less than the $81 million spent by Ted Cruz. The
Texas senator assembled a sophisticated microtargeting machine that helped keep
him in the race until he dropped out this month, after being trounced by Trump in the Indiana primary.
Last month, as Trump was struggling
to put away Cruz, Trump’s campaign spent $2.7 million on advertising, while
Clinton spent $12 million on digital and broadcast media buys as she sought to
put away her rival for the Democratic nomination Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.
Yet Clinton’s campaign appeared to
be preparing for the general election, spending far less than Sanders, whose $207 million in total
spending marks him as the cycle’s biggest spender. He continued spending
briskly in April, dropping $38.6 million, compared to $23.9 million by Clinton.
Sanders spent almost twice as much as
Clinton on media and payroll (despite a slightly smaller staff), as well as
more on online advertising and direct mail.
And speaking of braindead, Paul Ryan the puppet of
billionaire oligarch’s is again pimping the oligarch’s plan to privatize social
security and raise the age for Medicare in his “Better Way” plan. When he speaks he speaks to his constituents,
“the haves and the have mores.” From The Atlantic:
Excerpt:
Paul Ryan Has a Plan, But No One Is Listening
Donald Trump’s oafish hegemony over the news cycle leaves little room
for the House speaker’s earnest pleas
to talk about congressional policy.
How do you put a crowd of
congressional interns to sleep? Gather them in the cool, quiet serenity of the
Capitol’s Statuary Hall and have them sit for an hour while a parade of House members delivers more or
less the same speech over and over and over again… at Thursday’s rollout of
the fourth piece of Speaker Paul Ryan’s “A Better Way” agenda—this one on how
Congress must reclaim its constitutional authority—did not actually doze off.
But as the event ground on, many
visibly zoned out or turned their attentions to texting or perusing Snapchat.
At one point, the young woman next to me
(one of a trio of interns from Representative Joe Wilson’s office) stopped bothering to glance up from her
phone when it came time to applaud; she’d simply clap in the general direction
of the podium, eyes glued to the screen balanced on her lap…
Thursday, with way too many lawmakers on hand to sing the same
basic notes: The Constitution rocks, unelected bureaucrats are bad, and
executive overreach is ruining America. Only the examples of regulatory outrage
varied, based on each speaker’s home district: Keith Rothfus of Pennsylvania’s
12th denounced the burdens on coal
plants; Doug Collins of Georgia’s 9th talked about poultry-farming regulations; Bradley Byrne of Alabama’s 1st
bemoaned the tightening of red-snapper season; French Hill of Arkansas’s 2nd shredded the Environmental Protection
Agency’s Clean Water Rule; and so on…
As the logic goes in Congress: Why
have just three or four lawmakers explain a proposal when a dozen or more will happily hold forth for the cameras? Which guarantees redundancy and tedium, but
makes perfect sense when you consider that Ryan’s
entire “A Better Way” project is a grand exercise in messaging that, in
addition to positioning his conference as the party of ideas, is also meant to give individual members a chance
to impress the voters back home with all the deep policy thinking they’ve
done.
Unbelievably braindead but that is what you get when big
money is allowed to buy our politicians.
Dumb asses. Donald Trump gets it,
he is a political genius planning his trip to Scotland to coincide with the
Brexit vote. Absolutely brilliant,
landing his “Trump helicopter” as the Brexit vote was announced. But in America this is how the billionaire-owned
corporate press is reporting on Trump. From the Washington Whore Post:
Excerpt:
In new poll, support for Trump has plunged, giving Clinton a
double-digit lead
Support for Donald Trump has plungedas he has alienated fellow Republicans and large majorities of
voters overall in the course of a month of self-inflicted controversies,
propelling Democrat Hillary Clinton to a double-digit lead nationally in a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.
The survey finds sweeping unease with the presumptive
Republican nominee’s candidacy — from his incendiary rhetoric and values to his handling of both terrorism
and his own business — foreshadowing that the November election could be a
referendum on Trump more than anything else.
Roughly two in three Americans say
they think Trump is unqualified to lead the nation; are anxious about the idea
of him as president; believe his
comments about women, minorities and Muslims show an unfair bias; and see his
attacks on a federal judge because of his Mexican American heritage as racist.
Nearly one-third of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents say Trump
is unqualified for office, and 18 percent say he does not represent their beliefs, exposing deep fissures in the
GOP base as Trump struggles to unite conservatives going into next month’s
national convention in Cleveland.
The lobotomized Washington Post is one of the worst, most
biased, anti-Trump rags on the market. Owned
by right-wing billionaire Jeff Bezos, they have advocated for non-natural born American
citizens being eligible for the American Presidency and backed Canadian TedCruz so that tripe is not surprising. So
let’s see what Larry Johnson has to say at his blog “No Quarter.”
Excerpt:
BREXIT–A Harbinger of a Trump Victory?
What the voters did to the
establishment and the elite narrative in the U.K. is comparable to what voters in the United States are likely to
do to the establishment here when they vote for Trump. The voters in the
U.K were angry at the European Union
passing and trying to enforce laws on
the average person in the U.K. that, from the standpoint of those average souls, was unjust interference in their liberty.
There also was anger at stagnating economic conditions and the favoritism being
shown towards immigrants at the expense of British nationals.
The vote to leave the E.U. was seen
as an act of defiance against the
internationalists and the status quo. We are seeing this same phenomena in
the United States and, just like the elite in the U.K., our own power brokers are ignoring the looming Tsunami of voter anger.
If you watched the coverage of the
aftermath of this voting massacre of
the status quo you would have felt you were on the threshold of Dante’s Inferno
because the pundits were screaming, “Abandon all hope ye who enter here.” While
there is likely to be short term economic turmoil with currencies fluctuating
up and down, this probably will not be the financial disaster that the elite
are predicting, at least in the U.K.
The short term effect in the United
States is that U.S. dollar will be further strengthened. That means we will pay
less for foreign oil but the effective price of things made in the United
States will increase. That means fewer exports and a damper on manufacturing
here. On the other hand, our financial
institutions will have ample supplies of dollars and, in theory, should be
able to make a lot of loans which
could in turn have a stimulative effect on the economy.
The real effect is the political
fallout. This marks the beginning of the
end of the European Union. Time to short that bad boy. France and Spain
will likely be the next to exit and, once different countries start heading for
the political exit, the E.U. will fall apart.
Thursday also was a horrible day for Barack Obama. Mr. Nobel
Prize’s exhortations for U.K. voters to stick with the E.U. were rebuffed.
Although the media sought to portray the vote outcome as “razor thin,” at 52%
win normally, in the U.S., is described as a significant, major victory. In
2012 Obama won 51.1% of the vote compared to Romney’s 47.2% and I do not
remember anyone on the Democrat side insisting that Obama eked out a narrow win…
The rejection of the status quo in
the U.K. is comparable to the rejection of the status quo here in the United
States. And Hillary Clinton is the
status quo candidate, which is why she will not win in November barring a
complete collapse of Trump.
The political left loves
“Globalization” and the myth that everyone is the same. In truth the Globalization push favors the large
corporate and financial interests at the expense of the poor and the middle
class. That inequity has sparked this 21st Century revolt and is a major
force driving the success of the Trump.
Thank you Britain, you have shaken off your chains and
sternly rebuked the CIA’s European Union criminal enterprise and have shown
Americans the way to freedom. The only
question now is, will America demand that their votes be counted in November or
will they remain in bondage?
Get the vapors, the GOP is headed for the fainting
couches. Donald Trump is guilty of being
Donald Trump, the antithesis of the modern day Republican Party. The conservative takeover of the Republican Party
began after the election of Taft who overturned the gains made by Presidents
McKinley and President Theodore Roosevelt.
Today’s Republicans represent massive deregulation of corporations and
banks, open boarders, despoiling the environment for profit, privatizing
federal lands, endless wars of imperialistic aggression, destruction of
workers’ rights, media monopolies, repression of human rights and destruction
of society as we know it.
Donald Trump, espousing the policies of President Theodore
Roosevelt has overwhelmingly won the vote of the American people in the
Republican primary. Teddy Roosevelt laid
out his domestic plan to combat poverty in 1910 called “The Square Deal.”
Excerpt:
The Square Deal was President Theodore Roosevelt's domestic program. He
explained in 1910:
When I say that I am for the square
deal, I mean not merely that I stand for
fair play under the present rules of the game, but that I stand for having
those rules changed so as to work for a more substantial equality of opportunity and of reward for equally good
service.
His policies reflected three basic
ideas: conservation of natural
resources, control of corporations, and consumer protection. These three
demands are often referred to as the "three C's" of Roosevelt's
Square Deal. Thus, it aimed at helping
middle class citizens and involved attacking
plutocracy and bad trusts while at
the same time protecting business
from the most extreme demands of organized labor.
A progressive Republican, Roosevelt
believed in government action to
mitigate social evils, and as president he in 1908 denounced "the representatives of predatory wealth” as guilty
of “all forms of iniquity from the oppression
of wage workers to unfair and unwholesome methods of crushing competition,
and to defrauding the public by stock-jobbing and the manipulation of securities…."
Roosevelt gave high priority to environmental conservation, and safeguarded millions of acres of wilderness
from commercial exploitation… Roosevelt
believed that nature existed to benefit
humanity…. In the area of labor
legislation, Roosevelt called for limits on the use of court injunctions
against labor unions during strikes (injunctions were a powerful weapon that
mostly helped business).
He wanted an employee liability law for industrial injuries (pre-empting state
laws). He called for an eight-hour law
for federal employees. In other areas he also sought a postal savings system (to provide competition for local
banks), and, finally, campaign reform laws.
During his second term, Roosevelt
tried to extend his Square Deal further, but was blocked by conservative Republicans in Congress.
Paul Ryan on behalf of his corporate conservative overlords has
demanded that Donald Trump discard those policies and get in lockstep with the
conservative agenda that was written by the oligarchs who control the
conservative GOP called “The Better Way”.
From Think Progress:
Excerpt:
Paul Ryan Is Pretty Sure Welfare Recipients Are Not Working Hard Enough
Three months after apologizing for
calling poor people “takers,” House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) unveiled his plan
to make life harder for them.
Ryan delivered remarks about the
plan, entitled A Better Way, at a drug rehab center in Anacostia, an
impoverished and heavily black neighborhood of Washington, D.C., as part of a
broader rollout of House Republican
priorities this week. Ryan has
become the leading voice in Republican
lawmakers’ crusade against welfare programs. In the past, he’s blamed
poverty on a “culture problem” in “inner cities,” where he says black men are “not even thinking about
working or learning the value and the culture of work.”
He has also argued that marriage is the cure for poverty, not
government programs, and refused to allow any actual poor people testify at
his hearings on poverty… Ryan’sprevious poverty plans have targeted the federal safety net … The proposal asserts that “for low-income families, it may not always
pay to work,” echoing a longtime conservative theory that poor people choose not to get jobs
because it’s more lucrative to rely on government benefits.
Consistent with that philosophy,
the plan includes a bevy of policies designed to make it much harder for people
in need to access federal programs:
tougher work requirements for food stamps, housing aid, or cash welfare… cutting
Social Security; eliminating funding for early childhood education lifeline
Head Start; sealing off tax credits from
some low-income families; and further allowing states to cut certain
programs as they see fit… The end game,
judging by Ryan's stated agenda over the
years, is to cut trillions of dollars from a safety net that's
already borne heavy blows in the face of increased need in the post-financial
crisis era…
Donald Trump’s stand on immigration is aligned with the
Teddy Roosevelt. According to Donald J.
Trump’s campaign website:
Excerpt:
IMMIGRATION REFORM THAT WILL MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN
The three core principles of Donald
J. Trump's immigration plan
When politicians talk about
“immigration reform” they mean: amnesty,
cheap labor and open borders. The Schumer-Rubio immigration bill was
nothing more than a giveaway to the corporate patrons who run both parties.
Real immigration reform puts the needs of working people first
– not wealthy globetrotting donors. We are the only country in the world whose
immigration system puts the needs of other nations ahead of our own. That must
change. Here are the three core principles of real immigration reform:
1. A nation without borders is not a nation. There must be a wall
across the southern border.
2. A nation without laws is not a nation. Laws passed in accordance
with our Constitutional system of government must be enforced.
3. A nation that does not serve its own citizens is not a nation. Any
immigration plan must improve jobs, wages and security for all Americans.
Teddy Roosevelt’s immigration policy according to Snopes:
Excerpt:
Sole Loyalty
Theodore Roosevelt's ideas on
Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907.
"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who
comes here in good faith becomes an
American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact
equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any
such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated
upon the person's becoming in every
facet an American, and nothing but an American...
There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an
American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the
American flag ... We have room for but
one language here, and that is the English language ... and we have room
for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty
to the American people."
Theodore Roosevelt 1907
The Conservative Republican claims that Canadian Ted Cruz is
a natural born citizen and eligible to run for President are laughable. Here is the Conservative stand on
immigration. From Breitbart:
Excerpt:
Paul Ryan Portrays Mass Immigration As GOP Principle
House Speaker Paul Ryan apparently wants the GOP to keep importing foreign workers
— even though the party’s actual voters are instead backing Donald Trump and
his promise of immigration restrictions.
The little-noticed reveal came in a Thursday interview on CNN, when Ryan
declared that “this is the party of [President Abraham] Lincoln and [President
Ronald] Reagan and Jack Kemp.”
O.K. everyone knows Lincoln and
Reagan — but who is Kemp? He’s a former football star, House Representative,
cabinet secretary, and failed vice-presidential candidate in 1996. The key point is that Ryan worked for Kemp in the 1990s… He seems to have persuaded Ryan
that the U.S. economy could provide
middle-class jobs to endless waves of striving unskilled immigrants, who
would then back GOP candidates as they campaigned for smaller government,
spending cuts and capital gains rollbacks…
“Americans and immigrants share the same values of work, family and
opportunity,” Kemp wrote in 2006.”There is no reason to fear the newcomers
arriving on our shores today. If anything, they will energize what is best
about our country,” he wrote, while insisting the Americans need a “robust annual flow required to keep our
economy growing.”
Kemp’s immigration principles may
have been great for Wall Street and the Chamber of Commerce — but a disaster for blue-collar Americans… So now Trump is heading towards the 2016
nomination largely because voters picked
Trump’s promise of a strong border wall to stop illegals, plus a pause in
legal immigration, plus cutbacks in
guest-workers, plus a ban against further immigration of Islamic adherents,
with their murderous doctrine of jihad and their Islamic scriptures that
repeatedly urge hatred towards Christians and Jews, women and gays,
secularists, apostates and modernizers….
Unsurprisingly, foreign-borne workers now comprise
one-sixth of America’s workforce, leaving many millions of Americans
unemployed or underemployed. Ryan’s own
actions also show he’s still entranced by Kemp’s pro-immigration vision. In 2014, for example, his secretly drafted legislation to bring in more cheap foreign
workers was derailed as the last moment when GOP voters defeated GOP
majority Leader Eric Cantor in his primary.
In December 2015, he backed a House plan that now allow
companies to bring in an extra 200,000 cheap foreign workers to take Americans’
jobs in kitchens and hotels, golf courses and resorts. His plan bumped up
the annual inflow of guest-workers to roughly 900,000.
President Teddy Roosevelt believed in conservation, that the
American land belonged to all Americans.
The conservation legacy of Theodore Roosevelt is found in the 230
million acres of public lands he helped establish during his presidency. Much of that land - 150 million acres -
was set aside as national forests.
Excerpt:
Theodore Roosevelt's Philosophy of Conservation
"Conservation means
development as much as it does protection. I recognize the right and duty of
this generation to develop and use the natural resources of our land but I do not recognize the right to waste them,
or to rob, by wasteful use... Moreover, I believe that the natural resources must be used for the
benefit of all our people, and not monopolized for the benefit of the few...
Of all the questions which can come
before this nation, short of the actual preservation of its existence in a
great war, there is none which compares in importance with the great central
task of leaving this land even a better land for our descendants than it is for
us, and training them into a better race to inhabit the land and pass it on. Conservation is a great moral issue,
for it involves the patriotic duty of insuring
the safety and continuance of the nation."
NATIONAL PARKS
"All the great natural resources which are vital to the
welfare of the whole people should be kept either in the hands or under the control of the whole people."
NATIONAL MONUMENTS
"In the Grand Canyon, Arizona has a natural wonder which, so
far as I know, is in kind absolutely unparalleled
throughout the rest of the world. Keep this great wonder of nature as it
is. You cannot improve it. The ages have been at work on it, and man can only
mar it."
NATIONAL GAME PRESERVES
"This country will not be a
permanently good place for any of us to live in unless we make it a reasonably
good place for all of us to live in."
BIRDS
"Birds should be saved for
utilitarian reasons; and, moreover, they should be saved because of reasons
unconnected with dollars and cents. A grove of giant redwoods or sequoias
should be kept just as we keep a great and beautiful cathedral. The
extermination of the passenger-pigeon meant that mankind was just so much
poorer....
And to lose the chance to see
frigate-birds soaring in circles above the storm, or a file of pelicans winging
their way homeward across the crimson afterglow of the sunset, or a myriad of
terns flashing in the bright light of midday as they hover in a shifting maze
above the beach-why, the loss is like the loss of a gallery of the masterpieces
of the artists of old time."
This is the Conservative agenda on National Parks and public
land from Politicus:
Excerpt:
Koch Brothers Are Ramping Up To Eliminate National Parks And Seize
Federal Lands
A favorite target of
Koch-Republicans is the National Park system that Republicans have so drastically underfunded that a Koch and
ExxonMobil-funded organization is calling for an end to national parks and
privatization of all federally-owned land. The argument being put forward
by the executive director of Koch fossil fuel organization, Reed Watson, is
that since the National Park system is
hurting for funding, the only option is to first stop creating national
parks and then cheaply sell off those already in existence. Why?
Because according to the Koch
brothers’ organization calling to sell off all public land and national parks, “True conservation is taking care of the
land and water you already have; we can protect it properly…” Republicans across the nation contend that no
state, federal, or local government has any right to own any land within
America’s borders…
The Kochs and ExxonMobil have
already committed PERC to publicly call
for an end to the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) because it is one
of America’s most successful parks programs.
LWCF is not in financial jeopardy
yet because Republicans have failed to end its
budget-neutral status. LWCF is
budget-neutral as a result of using
funds from offshore oil and gas development fees to fund projects across
the country at the federal, state and local levels.
The LWCF program supports some of
nation’s “most iconic” national parks such as Grand Canyon and Yellowstone. It has also created tens-of-thousands
of outdoor projects the general public uses regularly such as local parks and
baseball diamonds in all 50 states.
Donald Trump has said that America is broken and our
politicians no longer represent the people.
When he looked at what the politicians have done to our country, he felt
he had to run. President Teddy Roosevelt
felt much the same way when he saw what the conservatives under his successor President
Taft had done to America. From APStudy.org:
Excerpt:
In 1908, President Teddy Roosevelt
could have easily carried his burgeoning popularity to a sweeping victory in
the presidential election, but in 1904 he made an impulsive promise not to seek
a second elected term. However, he did not intend to completely relinquish
control, so he handpicked a successor. Howard Taft, the 350-pound Secretary of
War, was chosen as the Republican candidate for 1908…
The first major blow to the
Progressives during Taft’s administration was the Payne-Aldrich Tariff of
1909... the House of Representatives passed a bill that moderately restricted
tariffs, but their legislation was severely modified when it reached the
Senate.
Radical Senators, led by Nelson W.
Aldrich of Rhode Island, tacked on hundreds of revisions that effectively
raised tariffs on almost all products. Taft
eventually signed the bill and declared it “the best bill that the Republican
Party ever passed.” This action dumbfounded Progressives and marked the
beginning of an internal struggle for control of the Republican Party.
Another issue that caused
dissension among Republicans was Taft’s
handling of conservation issues… Taft was a dedicated conservationist and he
devoted extensive resources to the protection of the environment. However, most
of his progress was undone by his handling of the Ballinger-Pinchot dispute. Pinchot, the leader of the Department of
Forestry and a well-liked ally of Roosevelt, attacked Secretary of the
Interior Richard Ballinger for how he handled public lands.
Ballinger opened up thousands of acres of public lands in Wyoming,
Montana, and Alaska for private use
and this angered many Progressives. Pinchot was openly critical of Ballinger,
and in 1910 Taft responded by firing
Pinchot for insubordination. This infuriated much of the public as well as
the legions of political players who were still fiercely loyal to Roosevelt…
In early 1912, Roosevelt triumphantly returned and announced
himself as a challenger for the
Republican presidential nomination. Roosevelt and his followers, embracing
“New Nationalism,” began to furiously campaign for the nomination. However, as a result of their late start and
Taft’s ability as incumbent to control the convention, they were unable to secure the delegates necessary
to win the Republican candidacy. Not one to admit defeat, Roosevelt formed the
“Bull Moose” Party and vowed to enter the race as a third-party candidate…
When Teddy Roosevelt was running for President on the Bull
Moose Party ticket against Taft and Woodrow Wilson he was shot by a would be
assassin. From Wikipedia:
Excerpt:
John Flammang Schrank (March 5,
1876 – September 15, 1943) was a resident of New York, best known for his
attempt to assassinate former U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt on October 14, 1912
in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
The 1912 Presidential election campaign
was characterised by a serious split in
the Republican Party between the
conservative wing under President William Howard Taft and the liberal/reform wing under ex-President
Theodore Roosevelt. After a bitter confrontation at the Republican
Convention, Taft won renomination.
Roosevelt led a bolt of his
followers, who held a convention and nominated him for President on the ticket
of the Progressive Party, nicknamed the "Bull Moose Party." Taft and
his supporters attacked Roosevelt for being power-hungry, and seeking to break the tradition that U.S. Presidents only
serve up to two terms in office.
On October 14, 1912, while Theodore
Roosevelt was campaigning in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Schrank attempted to
assassinate him. It is unclear when Schrank's interest in
domestic politics grew to the point that he would attempt to kill Roosevelt. It
is known that he was an opponent of a
sitting President's ability to seek a third term in office…
Both Taft and Democratic nominee
Woodrow Wilson suspended their own campaigning until Roosevelt recovered and
resumed his. Roosevelt made only two more speeches in the campaign. Although Roosevelt won more votes and
electoral votes than Taft, Wilson bested both of them and won the
Presidency.
Wilson won the Presidency with only 41% of the vote. Will history repeat itself? From CNN:
Excerpt:
First on CNN: Priebus probes state GOP leaders over anti-Trump push
(CNN)Republican National Committee
Chairman Reince Priebus has been quietly having conversations with state party
leaders to discuss the latest push by convention delegates to nominate anyone
other than Donald Trump. Priebus has spoken with GOP party chairmen
in multiple states in recent days in part to get a better sense of how large
the anti-Trump faction is among their convention delegations…
One source said Priebus' ultimate
goal is unclear. But some anti-Trump forces are hoping to garner enough support
to press the convention's rules
committee to alter the rules governing the convention and open a path for a
different candidate. The conversations
between Priebus and state leaders come as frustration and mistrust continues to
linger between the RNC and the Trump campaign…
The conservative wing of the Republican Party that seized
power from the progressive wing of Teddy Roosevelt is trying to thwart the will
of the American people. The American
people have soundly rejected the conservative agenda, they are sick of it and
disgusted by it. The Republican voters
want to rid themselves of the “tainted love” offered by Paul Ryan and his
conservative agenda. Will history repeat
itself?
You step out of
line, the man come and take you away
We better stop,
hey, what's that sound
Everybody look
what's going down…
Buffalo Springfield
Our Orwellian Government is stoking up the rhetoric pointing
fingers at each other for not using the term, radical Islamists. Don’t be fooled, the rhetoric is to divert
our limited attention span from acknowledging the real terrorists in the American
government. The Orlando gunman was
employed by a British based security contractor who was in charge of airport
security at the three airports involved in the 911 attacks. From Washington Blog:
Excerpt:
The shooting in Orlando on June
12th demonstrated features that were present in many recent terrorist acts. For
example the suspect was quickly killed and the official account immediately
attempted to blame the attacks on Islam. However, as with most terrorist
suspects in the U.S., Omar Mateen had been closely followed by the FBI. He also worked for a company suspected of
engaging in prior terrorist events.
Mateen was well known to the FBI.
In fact the Bureau had interviewed him several times and had evaluated his
potential for terrorism on at least three occasions. This fact is noteworthy
considering that both before 9/11, and since then, FBI leaders appear to have facilitated or manufactured terrorist acts.
Although U.S. authorities claim
that Mateen pledged allegiance to ISIS “in the midst of the attack,” Mateen’s family
were surprised at the claim that he had any connection to a radical terrorist
group. In fact, they said he was not
particularly religious… Mateen’s
employer, G4S, has some interesting
links to previous terrorist events. And it benefits from terrorism.
Mateen worked for the British company G4S since 2007.
Throughout that time, G4S has been what people might call a private, special operations military outfit. It is said to be
three times the size of the British military. In 2012, a G4S employee was charged
with making a bomb threat at the Olympics. Similar bomb threats were connected
to G4S in 2013 and May 2016.
Previously called Securicor, G4S PROVIDED SECURITY AT ALL THREE
AIRPORTS AFFECTED BY THE 9/11 ATTACKS. Securicor/G4S had bought Argenbright
Security—the 9/11 airport security firm—just nine months before the 9/11
attacks.The company later ran
operations at Guantanamo Bay…
Interesting that G4S had bought Argenbright Security, the
911 airport security firm just 9 months before the 911 attacks just like Larry
Silverstein, the owner who “made a killing” on the World Trade Center buildings. From Realities Watch:
Excerpt:
Larry Silverstein Bought WTC Months Before 9/11: He Got $4.55 Billion
Insurance For The Buildings!
Silverstein’s insurance plan
happened to cover terrorist attacks “by chance”. When attacks really took place
on 9/11, Silverstein filed a law suit against the insurance company wanting a
double payment since there were two planes that crashed in the World Trade
Center towers. The court acknowledged
his claim therefore Silverstein was paid $4,550,000,000.
Larry Silverstein, the rumored
organized crime figure who struck it rich on September 11th, 2001, then used
his 9/11 insurance windfall to seize control of Chicago’s Sears Tower, and to rebuild the condemned-for-asbestos World
Trade Center with its Orwellian “Freedom Tower…”
The Business Week article noted
that Silverstein leased the twin towers
for 99 years six weeks before they were destroyed in the 2001 terrorist
attacks. But the article fails to mention the relevant background:
For the record, the high-vacancy, antiquated-infrastructure Twin Towers were a huge money-loser for the City of New
York, which was under court order
to do asbestos abatement. The price tag could have reached the double-digit
billions – far more than the Towers were worth.
Why would Silverstein purchase the World Trade Center
buildings that were under court order to clean up the asbestos at a cost of
double-digit billions of dollars? Those
buildings had high-vacancy and were a huge money loser and yet Silverstein
takes out insurance policies on the buildings and poof, problem solved. The buildings are razed by terrorists at no
cost to Silverstein.
The only people arrested on September 11, 2001 were Israeli
Mossad agents. From Todays CatholicWorld:
Excerpt:
The Five Dancing "Israelis" Arrested On 9-11
On the day of the 9-11 attacks,
former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was asked what the attacks
would mean for US-Israeli relations. His quick reply was: "It's very
good……. Well, it's not good, but it will generate immediate sympathy (for
Israel)"
The FBI came to the conclusion...
that the five Israelis arrested in
New Jersey last September were conducting a Mossad surveillance mission and that their employer, Urban Moving
Systems of Weehawken, N.J., served as a front. -Forward (A Jewish Magazine)
March 15, 2002.
"Evidence linking these
Israelis to 9/11 is classified. I cannot tell you about evidence that has been
gathered. It's classified information."
--US official quoted in Carl
Cameron's Fox News report (that was later erased from the Fox News website) on
the Israeli spy ring and its connections to 9-11.
According to ABCNEWS sources,
Israeli and U.S. government officials worked out a deal — and after 71 days,
the five Israelis were taken out of jail, put on a plane, and deported back
home. While the former detainees refused to answer ABC NEWS' questions about
their detention and what they were doing on Sept. 11, several of the detainees
discussed their experience in America on an Israeli talk show after their
return home.
Said one of the men, "Our
purpose was to document the event."
But how did they know there was going to BE an "event"?
You may ask yourself what does Israeli Mossad agents
recording the 911 terror attacks have to do with the Orlando massacre, which is
the second largest terror attack in America.
Well Christopher Everard is reporting that the Orlando shooter may have
been a Mossad asset.
Excerpt:
Was the Orlando Killer a MOSSAD ‘Asset’?
The Orlando shooter, Mr. Omar
Mateen, was employed by the US subsidiary of G4S, which is Her Majesty’s
government contractor that runs prisons, checks criminal records, supplies
security for government ministers – and, most importantly, works hand-in-hand with other security contractors, many of whom
are owned by parent corporations in
ISRAEL.
Mr. Omar Mateen worked for G4S for
almost ten years in a trusted position, a stone’s throw from the G4S U.S.
offices. G4S has run security contracts for the government of Israel, and, as Wackenhut/G4S Ltd.,
has also had sensitive security
contracts in Pakistan, which is the nation that provided support and bank transfers to the 911 attackers.
Does the Orlando shooting have the
hallmark of a FALSE FLAG? Many conspiracy
theorists online say ‘Yes’! So let’s
take a look at the links between the Orlando killer and some of the world’s
most sensitive and highly profitable
‘security’ and ‘anti terrorist’ companies…
G4S is one of the world’s top security contractors, with access to
police, prison and governmental security buildings – including premises
visited by Secret Intelligence employees and their affiliated organisations
such as GCHQ, the FBI and MOSSAD.
The Intercept is reporting that Mateen isn’t the only murderer
G4S has employed.
Excerpt:
Orlando Shooter Wasn’t the First
Murderer Employed By Global Mercenary Firm
THE MAN WHO shot over 100 people
and killed 49 in an Orlando nightclub Saturday worked at a retirement home as a
security guard for G4S – a giant, often
controversial global contracting corporation that provides mercenary forces,
prison guards and security services. G4S is one of the world’s largest
private security companies, with more than 620,000 employees and a presence in
over 100 countries…
G4S’s statement says that Mateen was subject to “checks from a U.S.
law enforcement agency with no findings
reported to G4S.” But according to the New York Times, the investigation took
place because of “reports from [Mateen’s] coworkers, that he… suggested he may
have had terrorist ties.”
G4S has previously been accused of improperly vetting its employees. In
2009, Danny Fitzsimons, a former British paratrooper and employee of a G4S
subsidiary, killed two colleagues in Iraq, claiming to be “the antichrist” and
saying he “must satisfy” his “bloodlust.” An official investigation concluded
that his employer did not properly vet
his psychological health.
In 2007, G4S signed contracts with five Israeli prisons and “interrogation
centers,” leading to accusations that it was complicit in torture and the imprisonment of children. In 2010,
three G4S security guards killed an Angolan national during a deportation
flight from the U.K., by restraining him in an asphyxiating position. In January, five G4S officers were arrested
after a BBC expose revealed systematic
abuse and neglect at a G4S-run youth jails.
G4S has also become a focal point for the Israel-focused Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions Movement over its
partnerships with Israeli prisons and military checkpoints… In 2002, G4S acquired the United States-based Wackenhut Corporation,
a private security and prison contractor with a deeply troubled history,
including the widespread sexual
assault of inmates at a Texas detention center in 1999.
Wackenhut went on to win a contract to guard the U.S. Embassy at Kabul,
worth $189 million over five years... Nevertheless, Wackenhut was
hired by the U.S. government and BP in 2010 to manage perimeter security for
the Deepwater Horizon oil spill on the Gulf Coast.
A little known fact is that as a result of those millions of
dollars in contracts to a company known for widespread torture and murder, Dick
Cheney and Alberto Gonzales were indicted by a prosecutor in Texas in 2008
after profiteering off the privatized prison system. From November.org:
VP Cheney Indicted For Prison Profiteering, Abuse
Cheney And Former Attorney General
Alberto Gonzales Indicted For Criminal Conspiracy In Private Prison
Profiteering, Resulting In Prisoner Assaults
WILLACY COUNTY, Texas -- US Vice
President Dick Cheney was indicted today for a prison profiteering scheme and
charged with abuse of prisoners. Cheney
invested millions in the Vanguard Group, an investment management company with interests in the prison companies in
charge of detention centers. Former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales was
also indicted in the prison profiteering scheme, resulting in ongoing prisoner
assaults and at least one murder.
Human rights activists urged a
probe into prison profiteering after the
private prison corporation GEO Group and CCA (Corrections Corporation of
America) began receiving numerous federal contracts to build detention centers.
GEO's new contracts included migrant prisons in Laredo, Texas and Jena,
Louisiana.
Human rights activists said the fever-pitched racism mounted in the
US was induced for the purpose of prison
profiteering by US officials reaping enormous profits. The increased
arrests of migrants resulted in profits and a long list of new prison
construction contracts for the GEO
Group, formerly Wackenhut, both with a long history of assaults and murders in
prisons.
A Texas grand jury indicted Cheney
today and accused him of at least misdemeanor assaults of inmates by allowing
inmates to assault fellow inmates. Gonzales
was charged with having used his position to stop investigations
into assaults committed in a prison for profit in Willacy County, Texas. Both Cheney and Gonzales were charged with
engaging in organized criminal activity…
During the Bush-Cheney regime, prisons of torture and prisons for
migrants became synonymous with the name GEO, from Guantanamo to migrant
prisons in the south and along the southwest border… GEO was not the only one profiteering. The
Wackenhut Corp. was also profiteering from transporting migrants from the
border after their arrests. The two companies split in 2003…
It comes as no surprise that the
Vanguard Group is also currently a major shareholder in Halliburton, the longtime war profiteer in Iraq.Cheney's investments in the Vanguard
Group are estimated at between $25 and
$86 million, since exact numbers have not been released… While the US filled its prisons with
migrants, with a price on their heads, the number of Native American prisoners
soared.
The US Department of Justice
recently released a study showing that Native
American inmates in Indian country jails increased by 24 percent between 2004 and 2007. The figures for
Native Americans in all facilities -- tribal, federal and state -- increased
4.5 percent. Suicides, attempted suicides, deaths and escapes were cited as the
result of deteriorating prison
conditions.
So did Cheney and Gonzales get the same justice that other
defendants receive in the Texas penal system?
Absolutely not, as a matter of fact the District Attorney that was
prosecuting them was indicted by the judge hearing the case. From USA Today:
Excerpt:
Hearing on Cheney indictment turns chaotic
RAYMONDVILLE, Texas (AP) — A county
prosecutor who brought indictments against Vice President Dick Cheney, former
Attorney General Alberto Gonzales and others pounded his fist and shouted at
the judge Friday about special treatment
for high-profile defendants as a routine motions hearing descended into
chaos.
Willacy County District Attorney
Juan Angel Guerra, who is accusing the public officials of culpability in the
alleged abuse of prisoners in a federal detention center, asked Presiding Judge Manuel Banales to recuse himself.
Guerra has complained about Banales' handling of the case.
Attorneys for the vice president
and other defendants leapt to their feet in objection, as Guerra pounded the
table and accused Banales of giving
the defendants special treatment in allowing
motions to quash the indictments to be heard before the defendants were
arraigned. That’s justice Texas
style.
"Now all of a sudden there is
urgency," Guerra shouted. "Eighteen months you kept me indicted
through the election." The charges against Guerra were dropped last year. Guerra lost re-election in the March Democratic
primary…
The vice president is the highest public official Guerra has
pursued, but he made a nearly 20-year-career of passing over routine crimes in
favor of public corruption before
being defeated in the March Democratic primary election.
It was Guerra's interest in the contracts to build and run a federal
detentioncenter that led to some of his biggest successes —
three guilty pleas on bribery charges from former county commissioners in 2005.
But he also believes it was the
motivation for his own legal battles.
Guerra responded to his theft
arrest by camping outside the courthouse with farm animals in protest. He
continued working for more than a year while under indictment on charges of
extorting money from a bail bond company and using his office for personal
business until Banales dismissed the
indictment last month.
The defendants did need to appear in person Friday.
What the defendants were required to appear and were not
present and the indictment was dismissed.
Well I guess we can see how the rich and powerful are treated in Judge
Banales court, but how are the poor treated?
From KIII GTV News:
Excerpt:
Man Set Free After Nine Years in Jail
CORPUS CHRISTI (Kiii News) - A
Corpus Christi man who spent the last nine years of his life in prison after
being convicted of having sex with a minor is a free man Thursday night.
Brandon Coronado was 17 at the time, and about to graduate from
King High School. The victim was only
13, but she told Coronado she was 16.
Coronado was sentenced to 10 years probation, but violated that
probation a few times after testing
positive for marijuana use. Back then, District Judge Manuel Banales warned
him that, if he violated probation
again, he would be sent to prison for 60 years.
According to the state's Court of
Criminal Appeals, the judge's warning
violated Coronado's due process by predetermining his sentence, thus
violating the defendant's constitutional rights.
"Going to sleep every night
with a 60-year sentence over your head is terrifying," Coronado said.
"It makes you not want to live anymore."
Coronado now shares a home with his
mother and two sisters. He described the past nine years as life wasted. The
day he was sentenced still shocks him.
"I just couldn't believe it," he said. "60 years? I just
couldn't believe it. I mean there's murderers getting 15 and 20 years!"
Some poor kid gets 60 years in Cheney’s for-profit torture prison
for having marijuana in his system while on probation for statutory rape and murders
like Cheney not only get away with murder but makes a profit off Judge Banales’
sentencing the kid to prison. And a security
company like G4S probably was paid to transport the kid to the prison. From Zero Hedge:
Excerpt:
Orlando Killer Worked For Company Transporting Illegal Immigrants
Inside US; Was Interviewed By FBI 3 Times
In a surprising discovery, the Palm
Beach Post first reported that according to state records, Orlando shooter Omar
Mateen - who as we reported earlier was licensed as a security guard and also
holds a firearms license - was employed by the US subsidiary of G4S plc, a
British multinational security services company, whose US-headquarters are
located in Jupiter, Fla, and which also happens to be the world's largest security company by revenue.
Mateen who according to preliminary
reports, had been on a terrorist watch list, and who still managed to obtain
weapons thanks to his various licenses and permits just last week, was employed by one of the world's largest security
companies, where he may have had extensive clearances
well above his pay grade, not to mention
access to sophisticated military weapons and equipment.
But where it gets more disturbing
is that as Judicial Watch reported several days ago, in a post titled, "DHS Quietly Moving, Releasing Vanloads
Of Illegal Aliens Away From Border", border patrol sources said that
the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) was quietly transporting illegal
immigrants from the Mexican border to
Phoenix and releasing them without
proper processing or issuing court appearance documents.
As a reminder, the government
classifies them as Other Than Mexican
(OTM) and this week around 35 were transferred 116 miles north from Tucson to a Phoenix bus station where they went
their separate way. Judicial Watch was present when one of the white vans
carrying a group of OTMs arrived at the Phoenix Greyhound station on Buckeye
Road.
And this is where the Mateen-G4S link emerges: as JW reported
previously, a security company
contracted by the U.S. government is driving the OTMs from the Border
Patrol’s Tucson Sector where they were in custody to Phoenix, sources said. The
firm is the abovementioned G4S, the world’s leading security solutions group
with operations in more than 100 countries and 610,000 employees. G4S has more
than 50,000 employees in the U.S. and its domestic headquarters is in Jupiter,
Florida.
So if you are an illegal immigrant from Mexico you are placed
in Dick Cheney’s for profit prison torture chambers and if you are an illegal
immigrant from anywhere else you are put on a G4S bus and transported to be
disbursed across the country. Who are
these people, where are these people from and are they terrorists? Is the FBI keeping track of them to use as
an asset when needed to keep the American people in line? From Lew Rockwell:
Excerpt:
CONFIRMED: FBI Introduced Florida Shooter to "Informants"
June 14, 2016 - It is now confirmed
that in addition to two investigations and two interviews, Florida terror
suspect Omar Mateen was also approached
by “informants” working for the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)
over a period of 10 months… FBI
investigators investigated Mateen, who was born in New York, for 10 months. They introduced him to confidential
informants, spied on his communications and followed him. They also
interviewed him twice.
“Informants” in this context,
according to FBI affidavits regarding similar counterterrorism investigations, refers to individuals posing as members
of terrorist organizations who approach
suspects,coerce them into planning
and preparing for terrorist attacks, before finally aiding the FBI in the
suspect’s arrest before the attack is finally carried out.
Among the activities these informants carry out includes providing and training suspects in the use
of real explosives, providing suspects with arsenals of weapons precisely like
those used in the recent shooting in Orlando Florida, and encouraging suspects
to adopt “radical ideology” … Suspects
are given the false impression that they are working on behalf of terrorist
organizations like Al Qaeda or the self-proclaimed “Islamic State,” often
cultivating delusions of grandeur among otherwise mentally ill suspects.
The Intercept in its recent
article, “Before Nightclub Shooting, FBI Pursued Questionable Florida “Terror”
Suspects,” would note that the FBI’s
Miami office who investigated Mateen, has been “among the bureau’s most active and aggressive counterterrorism units.”
For more than a year ending in April … the FBI in Miami focused on a counterterrorism
sting that targeted James Medina, a
homeless man with mental problems.
The Intercept would reveal that the FBI informant, not Medina, came up with the idea of crediting the
planned attack to the “Islamic State.” In fact, upon reading the FBI’s
affidavit (.pdf), it is clear the FBI’s informant encouraged and walked Medina
through every aspect of the planned attack, including providing him with what
he thought was an explosive device.
Someone needs to connect the dots. The Department of Homeland Security founded
by Bush/Cheney is allowing illegal immigrants to flood over the southern
border. Homeland Security has contracted
with G4S Security to bus those possible terrorists across the United States and
release them with no processing. The
Orlando gunman was employed by the G4S Security and radicalized by FBI informants
under the Direction of FBI Director James Comey who was part of the Bush/Cheney
Administration.
