Wisconsin recount futile in Koch Brother’s Dismal Dairyland of GOP corruption

On November 8^th, Donald Trump became the first Republican presidential candidate to win Wisconsin in nearly 30 years.  Due to the massive anomalies in the Wisconsin election process since the GOP takeover of 2010, Green Party candidate Jill Stein has requested a recount of the votes cast in the state.  According to the Washington Post a recount of the votes in Wisconsin will take place.

Excerpt:

Election recount will take place in Wisconsin, after Stein files petition

An election recount will take place soon in Wisconsin, after former Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein filed a petition Friday with the state’s Election Commission, the first of three states where she has promised to contest the election result…

Trump scored upset victories in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, and seems on the path to declare a victory in Michigan as well, though the result of the election in that state will not be certified officially until Monday. Had Clinton won those three states, previously seen as part of the Democrats’ “firewall,” she would have secured enough electoral votes to win the election…

While the group had no specific proof of hacking, they noted anomalies suggesting Clinton routinely did more poorly in Wisconsin counties that used voting machines, as opposed to those that relied on paper ballots.

Election fraud committed at the highest levels in Wisconsin’s government has been rampant since 2010 when the GOP took control of Wisconsin’s government.  In 2011 after the GOP takeover of Wisconsin’s government, the right-wing extremist and former Republican Speaker of the Assembly, Justice David Prosser was running for reelection to the Wisconsin Supreme Court where he has been a Justice since 1998.  Prosser whose violent outbursts had made the high court a national laughing stock, lost his reelection to Joanne Kloppenburg.  But shortly after the announcement, Waukesha county clerk Kathy Nicklaus, who had been an aide to Scott Walker proclaimed Prosser the winner.  From Forbes:

Excerpt:

Something Smells In Waukesha County, Wisconsin-- And It's Not The Cheese

Suspicious evidence is beginning to emerge calling into question last week’s controversial state Supreme Court election between incumbent Justice David Prosser and challenger, JoAnne Kloppenburg.

Kloppenburg, the Democrat, had initially been thought to be the winner by the narrowest of margins – approximately 200 votes – in the election that was viewed as a referendum on Gov. Scott Walker’s anti-collective bargaining policies.

However, hours after the challenger declared victory, the Waukesha County Clerk, Kathy Nickolaus, announced that the votes of an entire city within her county had been accidentally omitted in her counts. When those votes were added into her totals, Justice Prosser emerged with a victory margin of roughly 7,500 votes –almost precisely the number needed to deny Ms. Kloppenburg an automatic, government-funded recount…

It turns out that there was a similar error in Waukesha County in 2006 during a Republican primary for State Assembly. Candidate Christine Lufter had been leading in the election until an alleged computer error discovered by Nickolaus was found to be placing votes in the wrong candidate’s column.

My, isn’t it interesting that every “mistake” uncovered by Kathy Nickolaus favors candidates backed by the Koch Brothers.  How is it that Nickolaus was able to control the election results in Waukesha County during her ex-boss’ recall election?  From Mother Jones:

Excerpt:

Will Scandal-Plagued Election Clerk Supervise Walker Recall in Key County?

Republican Kathy Nickolaus may be the only county clerk known by name across Wisconsin—and not for a good reason.  Last year, Nickolaus, the top election official in Waukesha County, a solidly Republican suburb outside of Milwaukee, blamed "human error" for the late discovery of more than 14,000 missing votes in a bruising state Supreme Court race.  Those votes erased liberal favorite JoAnne Kloppenburg's lead in the race, handed victory to conservative incumbent David Prosser… 

This April, Nickolaus resorted to posting election results on strips of grocery-receipt-like paper after the county's reporting system failed on election night.  After the April controversy, Nickolaus pledged to step down from handling the county's election operations. But ahead of Gov. Scott Walker's recall election on June 5… recent evidence suggests Nickolaus still has control over the county's vote-counting... WTMJ news station reported that Nickolaus "appeared to be very much in charge of the count…"

Kelly Steele, a spokesman for the labor-backed We Are Wisconsin group, says it would be "criminal" to allow Nickolaus to have any role in the county's June 5 election. "After Kathy Nickolaus earned her reputation as the most incompetent or corrupt election clerk in America, Waukesha County assured the world she would no longer administer elections…"

All evidence from the May primary suggests she's fully in charge and reporting out results to the world."  The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel editorial board has also demanded Nickolaus' resignation…   But although Nickolaus has said she won't run for reelection, she remains in her job—and, if the May 8 primary is any indication, she's still supervising elections.

Yep, in Wisconsin there’s no getting rid of the corrupt Republicans, they control every branch of government.  What’s particularly egregious has been the takeover of the Wisconsin Supreme Court whose GOP majority was funded by the outside groups like the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and Wisconsin Club for Growth.  The Club for Growth’s funding of Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker’s recall campaign was the subject of a John Doe investigation. 

Members of Wisconsin’s Supreme Court whose campaigns were funded by CFG refused to recuse themselves when the high court ordered the investigation be quashed.  The corruption on the Wisconsin Supreme Court has not gone unnoticed nationally.  From Newsweek:

Excerpt:

CAN YOU BUY JUSTICE? IN WISCONSIN, IT APPEARS YOU CAN

The Wisconsin Supreme Court is facing harsh criticism for a blatant conflict of interest in a July 16 ruling to shut down a campaign finance investigation of Gov. Scott Walker’s 2012 re-election campaign.  One headline referred to the court as a “crony court.” A Wisconsin columnist called the justices “self-serving” and concluded, “Justice bought is justice denied.”

Why? The justices in the majority have benefited from $10 million in spending by the same special interest groups that were suspected of conspiring with Walker.  The Wisconsin high court has become THE MOST CORRUPT COURT IN THE NATION SINCE THE GOP MEMBERS TOOK CONTROL.  

Yes, indeed another milestone for Republicans, according to Newsweek “the Wisconsin high court has become the most corrupt court in the nation since the GOP members took control.”  And what does Wisconsin look like under GOP control?  Let’s start with the GOP’s 2010 “redistricting” scam.  From Riverwest Currents:

Excerpt:

It took Republican legislative leaders only 12 days to go from unveiling their redistricting plans to passing them into law. The consequences of the redistricting legislation, however, may affect politics in Wisconsin for the next decade.  After presenting redistricting maps on July 8, the Senate passed the redistricting legislation on July 19, and the assembly on July 20 along predictable partisan lines…   

When asked why the redistricting legislation was being rushed to a vote, a representative of Sen. Scott Fitzgerald’s (R-Juneau) office said the rush was necessary to proactively counter a lawsuit against the Government Accountability Board (GAB), pending in US District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin. The lawsuit requested that a three-judge panel be appointed to redraw the district lines…

Every ten years, after new census data is released, the districts need to be equalized based upon the most current population data.  Under the new legislation, the chief responsibility for redistricting falls upon the state legislature rather than local official.   The prior law required local officials and state legislatures to perform these duties… and taxpayers incurred no special charges for this work.

Michael Best & Friedrich and Troupis Law Office were hired by the state at taxpayer expense to redraw the various districts. So far the law firms have charged the state about $350,000. The redistricting process was conducted secretly.   On July 21, the 15 residents who filed the lawsuit against the GAB in federal court amended their original complaint to argue that the new maps violate the US Constitution and the Voting Rights Act by carving up cities and splitting minority communities.

So the GOP hired a special interest group to redistrict costing taxpayers $350,000 and the process was done in secret.  Isn’t that interesting, minorities were forced to pay a private law firm to redistrict their communities to dilute their vote. My, my, my.  And diluting their votes wasn’t enough for the GOP, they wanted to make sure any Democratic leaning voter would be unable to vote at all.  And voila, the GOP “voter ID law” was born in the bowels of the American Legislative Exchange Council, the Koch Brothers modern day version of the Ku Klux Klan.

And years later what does Wisconsin look like after Walker and the GOP redistricted the state and instituted their Jim Crow voter ID law?  From Salon:

Excerpt:

The quiet, vicious racism of Scott Walker’s Wisconsin

With a voter-ID law passed by the GOP-controlled legislature and signed by Walker and threatening to disenfranchise hundreds of thousands of mostly minority voters in this election, the last thing the Koch brothers’ favorite governor wants is people who are going to say the quiet parts out loud…

The New Republic took a deep dive into Walker’s world two years ago. What the magazine found was a city and its suburbs even more segregated than most, where the chairman of one county’s Republican Party could still refer to one mostly African-American neighborhood in Milwaukee, in 2014, as “the colored section.”

Where white flight between 1960 and 2010 was so high it tripled the population of three formerly rural counties around Milwaukee, while the percentage of African-American residents in those three counties is under 2 percent. Where the black poverty rate within the city is the second-highest in the country.  This is the world that has coddled Walker as he traveled up through the ranks of the Republican Party.

As a member of the state Assembly, the executive of Milwaukee County, and now governor, he has spent his entire career deeply slicing budgets for programs that benefit inner-city African-Americans, such as public transportation. He has also pushed for private-school vouchers that decimate public education and advocated for privatizing prisons, all while cutting taxes to ensure that funding levels for these civic outlays are unlikely to be restored anytime soon, if ever… 

That this is all happening during the first election in which Wisconsin’s new voter-ID law is in effect only increases the irony. The law is part of the broader effort by Republicans both in Wisconsin and other states to limit the voting power of traditional Democratic constituencies. The Wisconsin law could disenfranchise as many as 300,000 mostly minority and student voters who want to cast votes today…

That’s right, in Wisconsin if you are a minority or a student why even bother to try to vote?  Republicans in Wisconsin control the elections and if you are lucky enough to overcome the onerous hurdles laid out by the GOP and actually cast a ballot, your vote won’t be counted anyway.  Election after election, as the GOP increases their control through election fraud, the Democrats just stand down and capitulate to the GOP. 

If the Democrats refuse to fight for your right to have your vote counted, why should you?  That is what happened in Wisconsin in the 2016 presidential election.  The voters were abandoned by the Democratic Party.  From the New York Times:

Excerpt:

Many in Milwaukee Neighborhood Didn’t Vote — and Don’t Regret It

MILWAUKEE — Four barbers and a firefighter were pondering their future under a Trump presidency at the Upper Cutz barbershop last week...  They admitted that they could not complain too much: Only two of them had voted. But there were no regrets.

“I don’t feel bad,” Mr. Fleming said, trimming a mustache. “Milwaukee is tired. Both of them were terrible. They never do anything for us anyway.”

As Democrats pick through the wreckage of the campaign, one lesson is clear: The election was notable as much for the people who did not show up, as for those who did. Nationally, about half of eligible voters did not cast ballots.

Wisconsin, a state that Hillary Clinton had assumed she would win, historically boasts one of the nation’s highest rates of voter participation; this year’s 68.3 percent turnout was the fifth best among the 50 states. But by local standards, it was a disappointment, the lowest turnout in 16 years. And those no-shows were important. Mr. Trump won the state by just 27,000 voters.

Milwaukee’s lowest-income neighborhoods offer one explanation for the turnout figures. Of the city’s 15 council districts, the decline in turnout from 2012 to 2016 in the five poorest was consistently much greater than the drop seen in more prosperous areas — accounting for half of the overall decline in turnout citywide.

The biggest drop was here in District 15, a stretch of fading wooden homes, sandwich shops and fast-food restaurants that is 84 percent black.  In this district, voter turnout declined by 19.5 percent from 2012 figures…   It is home to some of Milwaukee’s poorest residents and, according to a 2016 documentary, “Milwaukee 53206,” has one of the nation’s highest per-capita incarceration rates.

So what do you think a recount in Wisconsin will show?  Why even bother, the only votes to be recounted are the ones that the GOP allowed to be counted in the first place.  I for one believe that Donald Trump won the vote in Wisconsin.  Donald Trump came to Wisconsin several times, even while he was dissed by Paul Ryan and the Republicans.  Hillary Clinton didn’t even bother to visit Wisconsin even once during the campaign. 

Donald Trump earned the votes he received in Wisconsin.  If you really want to see the kind of corruption happening in Wisconsin, bring in the U.S. Justice Department to investigate the voter suppression laws and the constitutional violations that are taking place along with the re-segregation of Milwaukee.  A recount of the votes will show what the GOP wants it to show, there’s nothing to see here folks.  Everything is hunky dory.

Neocon vs. neocon: Trumps’ global tectonic shift throws world off its axis of evil

POLITICO Illustration; Images via AP and iStock

Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.

Isaiah 6:5:

Oh, truer words were never spoken.  The Democratic Party has come undone for they dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips.  The Republican Party has come undone for they dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips.  What is left you may ask.  The people of the world that are living on a planet that has been thrown off its axis of evil and now we must rebuild the world left in shambles by the godless handmaidens of the oligarchs.

Donald Trump has not even assumed the office of the Presidency and the two parties, gasping in their death throes are demanding that Trump have their blessing, nay their permission to form a cabinet that will govern the world for the next four years.  The two parties, deaf to the roar of the masses around them, are informing their constituents that the same failed leadership will return to their respective parties, i.e. Senate Majority Leader, Mitch McConnell, Speaker of the House Paul Ryan, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi. 

Are they serious?  What is wrong with those people?  Get out, we don’t want you!  As these miserable failures are returned to their leadership posts they are launching an all-out media blitz against Donald Trump and his choices for his team, particularly Steve Bannon.

Neocon vs. Neocon and the war against Steve Bannon, Trump’s Chief Strategist

Woe is me, according to the billionaire owned media Steve Bannon is the anti-Christ.  Steve Bannon was editor of Breitbart, the right wing publication that dared to criticize the editor of the Weekly Standard and son of founding member of the Project for a New American Century, Irving Kristol.  Oh woe is me.  Now the clarion calls for Trump to dump Bannon as his chief strategist are beginning to blare.  But what is the truth?  According to Heavy.com:

Excerpt:

Trump’s campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, defended Bannon, saying he was a former Naval officer with a Harvard business degree, The New York Times said…

Breitbart Ran a Headline Referring to a Commentator as a ‘Renegade Jew’

According to CNN, the article ran in May 2016 and contained a headline that referred to conservative pundit Bill Kristol as a “renegade Jew.”

On November 14, David Horowitz, who wrote that article, attempted to defend it on the Breitbart site, saying, “In fact, neither Breitbart nor Bannon is responsible for that statement…

Horowitz said he wrote the article after Kristol became a Never Trumper, saying, “Bill Kristol and his friends betrayed the Republican Party, betrayed the American people, and betrayed the Jews when he set out to undermine Trump and elect the criminal Hillary Clinton. Obama and Hillary are supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood…”

My, my.  Seems to me more like a neocon vs. neocon spat rather than a real threat to America’s future.  Me thinks the GOP aversion to Bannon has more to do with his criticism of the GOP’s neocon, Zionist Sunday morning talk show panelist and imperialist apologist than any “alt-right” objection.   According to Dr. Paul Craig Roberts, evidence is building that left-wing billionaire George Soros is behind the destabilization caused by anti-Trump “protests” across America.

Excerpt:

A reader writes that Soros “is involved in destabilizing and overthrowing democratically elected governments all over the world. He is not just a political and social threat to Russia and Ukraine, but evidently now to the USA and Western Europe, where he has been behind the mass influx of immigrants to destabilise those countries as well.

“It is clear that Trump and Putin have a lot of threats in common to deal with. The shadow government is currently rattled, but will strike back soon. After the recent violent events, Trump should join the Russian government and also call for the immediate arrest of Soros for his treasonous activities and confiscate all his assets in the West, appoint special prosecutors to deal with the neocon war criminals and break up the bought and paid for press and media monopolies that are the corrupt and mendacious whores of the oligarchy.

Furthermore, he should also shut down the oligarchs’ Fed and create a national bank to issue debt- and interest-free US money to fund infrastructure and the rebuilding of the US economy. That would critically weaken the opposition and strengthen his position in dealing with the shadow government. “These forces will be eternal enemies not just of him, but of the Western people. They represent a cancer that is killing the host. Not reconciliation, but deep and thorough cleaning is required to rout out this den of vipers.”

My, my, my. woe is me.  George Soros who has been able to run wild, overthrowing elected governments with the blessing and protection of the Democratic leadership is now a wanted man.  Putin has actually issued a warrant for his arrest.  From US Defense Watch:

Excerpt:

Russia has officially declared that Billionaire George Soros is a wanted man in their country, citing him and his organizations as a “threat to Russian national security”.

Putin banned Soros from Russia last year due to the fact that Soros helped to nearly destroy the Russian economy in the early 1990’s.  Matt Taibbi of the Rolling Stone said of Goldman Sachs six years ago:

“The first thing you need to know about Goldman Sachs is that it’s everywhere. The world’s most powerful investment bank is a great vampire squid wrapped around the face of humanity, relentlessly jamming its blood funnel into anything that smells like money.  “In fact, the history of the recent financial crisis, which doubles as a history of the rapid decline and fall of the suddenly swindled dry American empire, reads like a Who’s Who of Goldman Sachs graduates.”

Obviously Soros wants to be like Goldman Sachs. Phil Butler puts it well when he says: “George Soros has a finger in every political pie there is. If there is a crisis on our world, it’s a safe bet he’s had a hand in it…”  Their strategy is a little different, but the end result is the destruction of lives via the economic system (be it capitalism or socialism) and political manipulation.

That’s why Soros seems to think that he is invincible. He thinks he can move the political and economic planet in a few blinks of an eye and no one can tell him to stop… Soros thinks he can kill political stability throughout Europe and indeed in America with no challenge…  His organization has recently been caught conducting covert operations designed to destabilize Russia.

Here is an interesting quote from the leaked files of Soros’ Open Society Foundation:

“Our inclination is to engage in activities and with actors that will understand and counter Russian support to movements defending traditional values…Naming and shaming from us is problematic: we are also in the business of channeling money into other countries for political purposes.”

Yes, that is what Donald Trump is up against in the United States as he forms his government.  Kind of makes me look at Steve Bannon as a wise choice for Donald Trump’s new administration.  Pretty wise indeed, and as George Soros and Bill Kristol call on their bought and paid for GOP and DNC leadership to kill any Trump nomination.  But the politicians have no control over the people who will have Trump’s ear for the next four years.  They need no confirmation from our corrupt politicians.

Oh woe is me, the best laid plans of mice and men, but these are not mice they are rats and these are not men, they are traitors against America.  Soros and Kristol must be shaking in their boots over a Trump Administration, especially since their sixteen year plan to destroy America and Russia has now been upended.  From Washington Post:

Excerpt:

Trump, Putin agree in phone call to improve ‘unsatisfactory’ relations between their countries, Kremlin says

President-elect Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed in a telephone conversation Monday that relations between their countries were “unsatisfactory” and vowed to work together to improve them, the Kremlin said in a statement.  The statement said the two leaders discussed combining efforts in the fight against terrorism, talked about “a settlement for the crisis in Syria” and agreed their aides would begin working toward a face-to-face meeting between them.

Trump’s office said in a statement that Putin had called to “offer his congratulations” and that the two had discussed “a range of issues including the threats and challenges facing the United States and Russia, strategic economic issues and the historical U.S.-Russia relationship that dates back over 200 years.”  Although Trump’s statement did not mention Syria or other specific issues, it said that he told Putin “that he is very much looking forward to having a strong and enduring relationship with Russia and the People of Russia.”

The call came as Trump faced a growing backlash against his decision to name campaign chairman and former Breitbart News head Stephen K. Bannon as chief strategist at the White House, a choice CRITICS SAY will empower white nationalists…

Trump appeared to absolve Russia from responsibility for intervention in Ukraine and annexation of Crimea, and questioned the relevance of NATO, which has charged Moscow with engaging in provocative air and sea actions on the alliance’s eastern flank.

Giving Putin a free pass on those issues IS DIRECTLY COUNTER TO THE RUSSIA POLICY OF THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION, which has, among other things, called for an international war crimes investigation of Russia’s actions in Syria. It could also undermine current European negotiations with Moscow over Ukraine, and support for U.S. and European Union sanctions.

Oh, my, my, my.  Woe is me, the Trump Administration’s Russia policy in “directly counter to the Russia policy of the Obama Administration;” the administration that takes its walking orders from George Soros.  No wonder Soros is behind the anti-Trump demonstrations in America, it is in his financial and global interests to do so.  With a pliant billionaire owned media, those protests are magnified to seem as though they are more potent than they are in reality.  From Zero Hedge:

Excerpt:

Anti-Trump Protests: Proof Of Professional Activist Involvement 

In a story from November 12, USA Today writes an article to discredit the idea that the professional activist community is involved with organizing anti-Trump protests. They invite you to meet the protesters. USA today presents them as ordinary people. However, WikiLeaks exposes them as experienced protest organizers and activists.

Ha, ha ha.  This should be good, go on….

USA Today presents the protests as spontaneous, involving people from “all walks of life” – certainly not professional protesters. If anyone in the crowd has protest experience, it hasn’t been since the Vietnam Era:

They come in all ages and walks of life, unflinching and determined to be heard.

Mothers with young children, hoping to impart an up-close lesson in history. Animated college students stretching their political vocal cords for the first time. Aging Baby Boomers who haven't toted a protest sign since their anti-war days in the 1970s.

So should we expect that everyone quoted in that article is there out of spontaneous concern? Would a reputable newspaper properly identify its sources, noting if they were known activists and organizers? Let’s meet USA Today’s first protester:

Yong Jung Cho, 26, who organized a candlelight vigil in front of the White House on Wednesday night, said about 2,000 people showed up… USA Today presents Yong Jung Cho without any introduction. Is she an average citizen, or an experienced protest coordinator? In a February 2016 email from the Podesta files, Yong Jung Cho is described as “350 Action Campaign Coordinator”…

So USA Today’s first person from “all walks of life” is an organizer who has experience on the activist circuit, and in that capacity she worked on the presidential primary. Not exactly the “spontaneous concern” presented by the newspaper.

How about another source, someone that USA Today introduces by more than just a name? Here’s Phil Roeder, a public school official with no disclosed interest except the welfare of his students:

"The majority of students at Des Moines Public Schools are students of color," Phil Roeder, the district's director of communications and public affairs, said in a statement earlier this week. "The rhetoric of this past election has caused many concerns and divisions among them, their friends and their families. The school district will not stand in the way of our students peacefully expressing their concerns."

So: Phil Roeder, concerned public servant without a partisan agenda, or veteran Democratic activist? Once again, WikiLeaks can shed some light on that question.

In the same 2014 email from the Podesta collection, we find that many of the activists in the Iowa organization had private meetings with Obama and Clinton, and that Phil Roeder was prominent in the group…

Phil Roeder is well-enough connected in Democratic circles that he merits more than one mention in WikiLeaks. In May 2015 in the Podesta emails – some years after Roeder became a prominent political organizer in Iowa…   So the Iowa Daily Democrat recognizes Phil Roeder as a Democratic strategist, but somehow USA Today didn’t…

My, my, my.  Woe is me for I am undone, because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips.  Donald Trump was elected president by the people of America and whomever he desires to be in his cabinet and for his closest of confidants is his right as well as responsibility.  The two major parties have come undone, they are of unclean lips and dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips.  America, she’s come undone and needs our elected President, Donald Trump to put her back together.  President Trump, make America great again.

Deliver us from evil: Obama and DNC’s betrayal of the American people elected Trump

The people don't want a phony Democrat. If it's a choice between a genuine Republican, and a Republican in Democratic clothing, the people will choose the genuine article, every time; that is, they will take a Republican before they will a phony Democrat,

~Harry Truman, May 17th, 1952

The DNC never learns.  The DNC under Howard Dean’s leadership abandoned Hillary Clinton and the Democratic base of white working people in favor of a “new kind of Democrat” called the Obama coalition.  Ted Kennedy, Chuck Schumer and Joe Biden headed up the new Democratic coalition that consisted of courting millennials and black Americans while labeling Hillary and Bill Clinton and their supporters “racists.”

During the 2008 primary, the Democratic Party was hijacked and white working people were banished and left by the wayside.  Candidate Barack Obama, the Illinois Senator who was famous for avoiding any votes in the State legislature by voting “present” and having an unremarkable half term in the U.S. Senate was chosen by the Democratic elite as their candidate.  During Obama’s first interview he took the opportunity to slam President Clinton as an ineffective president, while lavishing effusive praise on his hero, President Ronald Reagan. 

In 2008 Obama marveled at how Reagan had changed the trajectory of the nation and alluded to an Obama Administration that would continue on the trajectory set by Reagan.  Oh, and how Reagan changed the trajectory of America.  From Dr. Mercola:

Excerpt:

In 1970, following a series of environmental calamities, 20 million Americans — 10 percent of the U.S. population — took to the streets on Earth Day, demanding an end to environmental pollution. It was the largest public demonstration in American history. And it worked.  The sheer enormity of the outrage forced President Nixon to address the problem head-on.

As a result, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was created. The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, which later became the Clean Water Act, was enacted to empower the EPA to go after major polluters.  The Act included strict pollution limits and penalties for those who violated them, and called for waterways to be fishable and swimmable again by July 1, 1983. The EPA initially made significant headway, suing several major polluters and banning DDT, for example.

Unfortunately, a decade later, the Reagan administration’s deregulation agenda gutted the EPA, effectively stopping it in its tracks…   Today, it seems both public and political will to take strong, affirmative action to protect the environment has been lost, and the pollution flowing from industrial agriculture and elsewhere is essentially and largely unregulated.

So let’s take a look at the accomplishments of the Republican-lite DNC’s President Barack Obama.  From Counter Punch: 

Excerpt:

President Barack Obama’s Crappy Legacy by DAVE LINDORFF

Barack Obama came into the White House on a wave of passionate new voters, many of them black or young and white, becoming the nation’s first black president and promising a new era of “hope and change.”  Eight years later, as he is preparing to exit the White House, he leaves behind considerable wreckage, disappointment and a legacy of death and destruction, plenty of it physical, but also much of it in the legislative and political arena.

He did give us, over the last eight years, a lot of change, but not much hope, and most of the change has been negative.  Let’s just run through at least some of the list:

* One of candidate Obama’s big selling points in 2008 was that he promised to end the Bush/Cheney administration’s disastrous war in Iraq, to close the horrific torture site and prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba …  Eight years later …  US forces being added even as our Nobel Peace Laureate president prepares to leave office. Guantanamo remains open and stocked with prisoners many of them known to have been wrongly accused of terrorism, as the president has proved too gutless to do the right thing and just shut the place down, or order the captives released…  

Meanwhile, torture continues, the president has expanded and formalized a system of state-sanctioned and directed murder, even of US citizens abroad, and surveillance of Americans has reached appalling levels not even imagined by science fiction writers like George Orwell a generation or more ago...

* Race relations in the US, and the economic condition of people of color in America, have only deteriorated during President Obama’s two terms… racial profiling and the killing of unarmed blacks, including children, by mostly white police officers has become epidemic… along with a general militarization of police (encouraged by his administration’s offer of free military surplus war armaments) to the point that it’s hard to distinguish them from an army of occupation across the land…

* The prison system has continued to expand, with perhaps some of the worst conditions of all in Supermax prisons run by the federal government (under the direct control of the president), where all inmates are held in conditions of solitary confinement that the civilized world considers to be a form of torture…

* A once-in-a-generation opportunity to finally scuttle this country’s outrageous and uniquely expensive and class-based for-profit health care system in favor of some kind of government run “single-payer” national system such as, again, the rest of the civilized nations of the world have adopted at much lower cost and with far better access and outcomes, was squandered by this president…

* Climate disaster, which candidate Obama warned was the biggest crisis facing America and the world, has been allowed to worsen almost unimpeded. The president refused to make it his number one issue… instead pursued his wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Somalia and elsewhere and his drone killing campaigns elsewhere in places like Pakistan and Yemen, and as he promoted a gratuitously confrontational foreign policy towards both Russia and China as advocated by the neo-con advisors he appointed to key positions in his administration, including as Secretary of Defense.

* Particularly where it comes to energy, the president not only did nothing significant to reduce carbon emissions in the US…  He continues to back the construction of pipelines that only encourage more exploitation of heavy carbon-producing “dirty” oil from places like North Dakota and Canada’s tar sands.

And now on his way out of office Obama is now betraying the Native American water protectors and plans to approve the Dakota Access Pipeline.

* Nuclear war, which the president as candidate promised to make less likely, has become more likely… than any time since the Cuban Missile Crisis. This is in large part because this president has pushed an aggressive program… of undermining the elected government of Ukraine only to replace it with a coup government run by anti-Russian fascists…

* The president campaigned with tremendous labor movement support…    American workers have continued to have to battle to survive during the president’s two terms under a National Labor Relations Act that is stacked against them.

* Beginning in 2010, the president…   ran conservative Democratic candidates against … more radical and progressive candidates seeking office in Democratic Party primaries. The result of this backstabbing of progressive candidates… leading to Republican takeover of both House and Senate — a grim situation that will now be difficult to undo.

* In the area of education, the president has actively encouraged… privatization of public school systems at the expense of public schools…      shifted public tax money from poor schools to selective privately run schools, where much of it ends up being siphoned off to high-salaried executives and the shareholders of for-profit management companies running the charters…  At the level of higher education, the president had the government take over as lender to students… although such loans do not even allow default, they continue to be offered at extortionate interest rates, leaving graduates as essentially indentured servants for life.

* In the area of open and law-abiding government, candidate Obama promised a new era of open government. That was probably his biggest whopper. By all accounts, his has been the most secretive government in history, with the most prosecutions of whistleblowers… his hounding of such courageous exposers of government wrongdoing as Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, NSA critic Edward Snowden, and war-crimes exposer Chelsea Manning, and his G W Bush-like fondness for executive orders.

* Finally, Obama failed abysmally on the economy, in large part because just as with the criminals of the Bush/Cheney administration whom he declined to prosecute for their clearly illegal and unconstitutional crimes of torture, aggressive war-making and illegal surveillance on Americans, he decided to bar the Justice Department from prosecuting the criminal bankers...  That decision was a disaster that still haunts the USA today, where some 20 percent of the workforce remains unemployed or unwillingly working less than full-time, often at a fraction of the wages they were earning before 2008.

In spite of the horrendously disastrous record of Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton decided to abandon the white working Americans who stood by her in 2008 in order to attract the “Obama coalition.”  That was a big mistake, her fate was sealed when she decided to defend the indefensible record of Obama.  Is it any wonder that the Democratic base fled the party and joined the ranks of Donald Trump and his “make America great again” campaign? 

Trump’s message of fighting for all Americans, extracting us from these wars for profit and dumping the class based, Wall Street profit driven healthcare system resonated with the people.  The Democratic Party is dead, the Republican Party is on notice, support the Trump agenda or you are fired.

Harry Truman faced the same phony Democratic Party in the 1950’s and he was absolutely right when he said “The people don't want a phony Democrat. If it's a choice between a genuine Republican, and a Republican in Democratic clothing, the people will choose the genuine article, every time; that is, they will take a Republican before they will a phony Democrat.”  Trump is a Teddy Roosevelt Republican and that is a good thing.  The world is ready for a new day, and it is here, Donald Trump will make America great again.

America joins Brexit and takes the off ramp from the Bush/Obama fascism freeway

The nightmare that began December 12^th, 2000 when the American government was overthrown by rightwing Zealots hell bent on a New World Order of endless war is now over.  America has joined the UK to forge a new era of power to the people.  The global banking cartels who engorged themselves on the largess of nations will now be put to heel.  Let the healing begin.  The FBI, CIA and Pentagon who have usurped the power of the Executive Branch and have been running rogue agencies answerable to no one will no longer have free reign with unlimited access to America’s treasury.

Draining the swamp

That great sucking sound you hear is the plug being pulled and the swamp being drained.  Who won last night?  The American people and the people of the world.  Who lost last night?  The Democratic and Republican elite, who have benefited from the decimation of America over the last sixteen years.  It is time to clear the decks and start from scratch under a Donald Trump Administration.  No holdovers.

Drain the FBI swamp of political hacks

The FBI, the great domestic surveillance agency and protector of the American people has been infiltrated with political hacks bent on destroying America.  There’s a saying, one bad apple spoils the barrel.  The FBI has not been spoiled by a bad apple at the bottom, but has been spoiled by a rotten layer at the top.  It is time to skim the scum off the top and allow the career agents comprised of attorneys and forensic accountants to take over to protect America from enemies foreign and domestic.

The reign of James Comey has been marked with the stupidity and clumsiness that comes when the top is filled with political hacks who are more interested in destroying political enemies than protecting the American people.  Comey’s defiance of his superiors at Justice and his Don Quixotic crusade against Hillary Clinton along with his GOP vigilante cheerleaders have tarnished the agency.  From Politicus: 

Excerpt:

DOJ Complaint Filed Against FBI Director James Comey For Interfering In Presidential Election

A complaint has been filed against FBI Director James Comey with Department of Justice Office of Professional Responsibility that accuses him of interfering in a presidential election.

The Democratic Coalition Against Trump filed a complaint with the Department of Justice Office of Professional Responsibility on Friday against FBI Director James Comey for interfering in the Presidential election, following the FBI’s decision to open up an investigation into Secretary Clinton’s emails this close to Election Day. Federal employees are forbidden from participating in political activities under the Hatch Act….

“It is an obvious attack from a lifelong Republican who used to serve in the Bush White House, just to undermine her campaign…  Director Comey’s motives for sending the letter 11 days before a presidential election have been questioned by both Republicans and Democrats.

Hopefully a Trump Administration will put America first and advance an America-first hierarchy at the FBI to replace the current failed leadership.  It is time for the FBI to concentrate on preventing terror attacks in America rather than investigating political enemies. 

Drain the Pentagon and CIA swamps of right wing political hacks

The CIA and Pentagon has been jam packed with neocons under the Bush Administration who have been overthrowing elected governments across the globe and threaten World War III.  These Zionist controlled lunatics who now serve in the Obama/Biden Administration recognize no restraints within the American Government.  From Consortium News:

Excerpt:

New Cold War Spins Out of Control

U.S. enthusiasts for the New Cold War with Russia appear to be ignoring less-belligerent orders from President Obama and pushing for a dangerous escalation of tensions, reports ex-British diplomat Alastair Crooke… 

In the aftermath of the U.S. attack on the Syrian army positions overlooking and commanding the Dier A-Zor airfield – the airfield, whose daily “Berlin air-bridge” style flights, are the sole lifeline to a city long besieged by ISIS – the Russian U.N. Ambassador asked a pertinent rhetorical question at the United Nations Security Council: Who is running U.S. policy: Is it the Pentagon or the White House?

There was no official response, of course, but one was not necessary: the New York Times editorial board gave us the answer in its verdict of Sept. 15:  Praising the U.S. Secretary of State for his energetic, but “quixotic” diplomacy, the “Board” wrote:

“The [Syria ceasefire] agreement also has powerful critics inside the Obama administration, including Defense Secretary Ashton Carter. On Tuesday, Pentagon officials refused to say whether they would comply with their part of the deal, which calls on the United States to share information with the Russians on Islamic State targets in Syria if the cease-fire holds for seven days…

What is so surprising here is the non-surprise evinced by the editorial writers of the New York Times. The Board blandly states that the Defense Secretary and the Pentagon might not comply. Not a hint of surprise is evident at the constitutional implications of this open defiance of Presidential authority.

No, rather the Board seems to view it as quite natural and commendable that Carter should refuse to comply with this “unusual and risky” proposition. But this was not some “proposition for collaboration.” This was an agreed formal accord between the United States and another state – reached after lengthy negotiations, and done with Presidential mandate.

In brief, President Obama’s authority is no more – if it runs against the settled opinion of the Pentagon, the CIA, the New York Times, the Washington Post and of the Democratic Party’s Presidential candidate. It is not unreasonable therefore to assume that Obama’s grudging détente with a Russian President that he personally, viscerally dislikes, is now no more than diplomatic chatter…

Challenging Obama’s Authority

Cross-accusations are flying over who did what in Syria these last days, but what comes through is that Obama is facing likely insurmountable dissidence, even open disobedience, within his own Administration… 

How long do you think that “insurmountable dissidence and open disobedience” will last in a Donald Trump Administration?  Do you believe that Trump will be overruled by the Pentagon, the CIA, the New York Times and the Washington Post?  Hardly.

Heal the nation

Trump has vowed to work with all nations and to rebuild the American’s leadership in the world. It is time that America assume her role as a world leader instead of a world bully.  President Trump in ushers in a radical movement in America, a real revolution.  The kind of revolution Americans are hungry for.  From Times of Israel:

Excerpt:

In victory speech, Trump vows to work ‘for all Americans’

US president-elect Donald Trump extended a conciliatory hand to Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton in his victory speech in New York early Wednesday, after Hillary Clinton conceded the US presidential election to the Republican.

Trump said it’s “time for us to come together,” pledging to be president “for all Americans.” He thanked Clinton, who called him to concede the result, for all her national service and congratulated her on a well-fought race…

“I pledge to every citizen of our land that I will be president for all of Americans.”  He said he plans to rebuild America, emphasizing development of transportation infrastructure and boosting the economy and “doubling growth” in the coming years.

Trump said he intends to deal fairly with all nations.  “We’ll get along with all other nations willing to get along with us…” 

Trump has pledged to act quickly to repeal Obama’s landmark health care law, revoke America’s nuclear agreement with Iran and rewrite important trade deals with other countries, particularly Mexico and Canada…

It’s a new day in America, this is what American elections are about.  Hillary Clinton put up a valiant fight and won the popular vote in spite of the unprecedented attacks by the FBI director and the GOP controlled congress.  But in the end it was Donald Trump who prevailed and now America must come together and work to heal the deep wounds that have persisted since the stolen election of 2000. 

Democracy has been restored, the American people once again had a choice and a voice.  At some point Americans must decide if we want to continue with an Electoral College system where 12-15 states choose the president.  But for now, God speed and power to the people.  May peace and harmony return to the world.

Election 2016: the CIA and FBI vs. the American people

James Comey’s politicization of the FBI has had detrimental effects on the agency that will tarnish the august institution for generations to come.  Comey, who had no law enforcement background, was nominated to head up America’s domestic intelligence agency by Barack Obama, whose presidential campaign was funded by Wall Street Banks.  During Obama’s presidential campaign, three-quarters of a billion dollars was funneled into the coffers of Obama in the biggest quid pro quo in America’s history.

After the election of Obama as president, the nations’ agencies were stacked with Wall Street Banker’s most loyal of agents in order to protect the banks from prosecution for crashing the global economy in favor of pure, unadulterated greed.  Obama’s first Attorney General, Wall Street’s own Eric Holder, ensured there would be no investigations nor prosecutions.  Nay, not only would the taxpayers bail out Wall Street but those at the top would collect hundreds of millions in bonuses.  From Rolling Stone:

Top spy agencies stacked against American people

Excerpt:

Eric Holder, Wall Street Double Agent, Comes in From the Cold

Barack Obama's former top cop cashes in after six years of letting banks run wild

Holder will reassume his lucrative partnership (he made $2.5 million the last year he worked there) and take his seat in an office that reportedly – this is no joke – was kept empty for him in his absence.

The office thing might have been improper, but at this point, who cares? More at issue is the extraordinary run Holder just completed as one of history's great double agents. For six years, while brilliantly disguised as the attorney general of the United States, he was actually working deep undercover…

Holder denied there was anything weird about returning to one of Wall Street's favorite defense firms after six years of letting one banker after another skate on monstrous cases of fraud, tax evasion, market manipulation, money laundering, bribery and other offenses…

Here's a man who just spent six years handing out soft-touch settlements to practically every Too Big to Fail bank in the world. Now he returns to a firm that represents many of those same companies: Morgan Stanley, Wells Fargo, Chase, Bank of America and Citigroup, to name a few…  after he handed out these deals, his service was certainly worth many billions of dollars to Wall Street.

Now he will presumably collect assloads of money from those very same bankers. It's one of THE BIGGEST QUID PRO QUO DEALS in the history of government service…

Yes, Eric Holder let the big banks off the hook to the tune of billions of dollars extracted from American taxpayers to bail out American and European banksters, one of which was HSBC the British based bank that laundered money for Mexican drug cartels through US satellite banking offices.

Anyone who even tries to claim that none of the banks actually did anything illegal should be directed to the HSBC settlement of December 2012. In this deferred prosecution agreement, Europe's largest bank paid $1.92 billion to settle their responsibility for violations of the Bank Secrecy Act and other laws.

This is from a description of HSBC's crimes by Holder's Justice Department:

"As a result of HSBC Bank USA's AML failures, at least $881 million in drug trafficking proceeds – including proceeds of drug trafficking by the Sinaloa Cartel in Mexico…were laundered through HSBC Bank USA."

You might remember the Sinaloa cartel for their ISIS-style, unforgettably upsetting torture videos. HSBC washed their cash. They even created special teller windows to make their deposits easier. This is admitted, not alleged.

But Holder went out of his way to let them keep their U.S. charter. HE GAVE THEIR EXECUTIVES A GRAND TOTAL OF ZERO DAYS IN JAIL, ZERO DOLLARS IN INDIVIDUAL FINES…

Holder contributed countless subtle inventions to soften punishments.  The most revolting in my view was allowing banks like Chase the courtesy of calling their settlements "remedial payments" instead of fines for wrongdoing.

This seemingly insignificant semantic tweak allowed the bank to call $7 billion of their settlement a business expense, which meant they could claim it as a tax deduction, which in turn meant that taxpayers like you and me paid a whopping $2.45 billion of Chase's penalty.

And guess who one of those Executives that received a “grand total of zero days in jail and zero dollars in individual fines” was?  None other than James Comey.  That’s right, James Comey one of the executives at HSBC Bank was involved with money laundering and drug money trafficking in the US through a British owned bank that cost American tax payers $881 million in “drug trafficking proceeds.”

Obama is Bush’s Third Term

In 2009 Mother Jones wrote an article called “Bush's Third Term?  You're living it.”  In the article they outline what George W. Bush would have done if he had a third term.  

Excerpt:

If Bush were in his third term, we would already have seen him propose, yet again, the largest military budget in the history of the world…  And of course, he would have held onto his Secretary of Defense from his second term, Robert Gates, to run the Pentagon, keep our ongoing wars rolling along, and oversee the better part of our public budget…

He'd probably also be escalating the campaign he launched late in his second term to use drone aircraft to illegally and repeatedly strike into Pakistan's tribal borderlands with Afghanistan….  If Bush were still "the decider" he'd be employing mercenaries like Blackwater and propagandists like the Rendon Group and he might even be expanding the number of private security contractors in Afghanistan.

In fact, the whole executive branch would be packed with disreputable corporate executive types. You'd have somebody like John ("May I torture this one some more, please?") Rizzo still serving, at least for a while, as general counsel at the CIA. The White House and Justice Department would be crawling with corporate cronies, people like John Brennan, Greg Craig, James Jones, and ERIC HOLDER.

In addition, the bank bailouts Bush and his economic team initiated in his second term would still be rolling along…  Ben Bernanke, for instance, would certainly have been reappointed to run the Fed…

If the Democrats in Congress attempted to pass any set of needed reforms like, to take an example, new healthcare legislation, Bush, the third termer, would have held secret meetings in the White House with insurance and drug company executives to devise a means to turn such proposals to their advantage.

This dark fantasy of a third Bush term is… an accurate portrait of Obama's first term to date.

Yes, in 2008 Americans were desperate for change, they were promised by Obama and Biden, they would get universal healthcare.  Medicare for all. Instead what was passed was the GOP’s Wall Street profit driven health insurance plan written by the right-wing Heritage Foundation.  Once the plan was repackaged in black face under the cover of a “Democratic” administration, any opposition was quickly extinguished as being racist. 

And Obamacare was just the start, the Bush Administration’s lawless attacks on civil and human rights were placed on steroids by Obama and Biden.  Each terror attack, no matter where it took place, demanded further erosion of constitutionally guaranteed rights.  From, The Free Thought Project:

America a lunatic asylum run by FBI and CIA

Excerpt:

Former CIA Officer: “Every Single Terrorist Attack In US Was A False Flag Attack”

Washington, D.C. — While it is a commonly known fact that the CIA utilizes foreign terror groups to destabilize governments targeted by the United States, a much lesser known fact is that numerous whistleblowers have come forward to claim that U.S. intelligence services not only use terrorism to achieve foreign policy goals, but to actually create domestic terror incidents to “blind the masses.”

The most recent intelligence whistleblower is David Steele, a 20-year Marine Corps intelligence officer, and the second-highest-ranking civilian in the U.S. Marine Corps Intelligence.  Steele, a former CIA clandestine services case officer, had this to say:

“Most terrorists are false flag terrorists, or are created by our own security services. In the United States, every single terrorist incident we have had has been a false flag, or has been an informant pushed on by the FBI. In fact, we now have citizens taking out restraining orders against FBI informants that are trying to incite terrorism. We’ve become a lunatic asylum...”

Many people believe the attacks of 9/11 to be a false flag event, perhaps orchestrated by U.S. intelligence services or an entity that operates above the level of government entities (commonly referred to as the deep state/military industrial complex.)

The alleged purpose of this false flag attack was to justify the invasion of other countries, and usher in a heightened state of “national security,” precipitating the curtailing of civil liberties in the name of “safety.”

How effective has the 911 false flag been in persuading the American people to accept the CIA’s overthrow of elected governments who refuse to succumb to America’s imperial ambitions?  Just ask Brazil and Argentina two of the most powerful and rich countries in South America, who have both seen their elected governments overthrown by the CIA and their resources and treasuries thrown open to Wall Street hedge fund vultures.  From GlobalResearch.

Excerpt:

Wall Street and the Pentagon greeted the onset of 2016 as a ‘banner year’, a glorious turning point in the quest for malleable regimes willing to sell-off the most lucrative economic resources, to sign off on onerous new debt to Wall Street and to grant use of their strategic military bases to the Pentagon.

Brazil and Argentina, the most powerful and richest countries in South America and the Philippines, Washington’s most strategic military platform in Southeast Asia, were the objects of intense US political operations in the run-up to 2016.

In each instance, Wall Street and the Pentagon secured smashing successes leading to premature ejaculations over the ‘new golden era’ of financial pillage and unfettered military adventures…

Argentina and Brazil:  Grandiose Schemes and Crapulous Outcomes

The international financial press was ecstatic over the election of President Mauricio Macri in Argentina and the appointment of former Wall Street bankers to his cabinet.  They celebrated the ouster of the ‘evil populists’, accusing them of inflating economic results, reneging on debt obligations and discouraging foreign lenders and investors.  Under the Macri regime all market obstacles were to be removed and all the bankers trembled with anticipation at the ‘good times’ to come.

After taking office in December 2015, President Macri unleashed the ‘animal instincts’ of the market and the carrion birds flocked in.  US ‘vulture funds’ scooped up and demanded payment for on old Argentine debt ‘valued’ at $3.5 billion – constituting a 1,000% return on their initial investment.  A devaluation of the peso of 50% tripled inflation and drove down wages by 20%.

Firing over 200,000 public sector employees, slapping 400% price increases on utilities and transport, driving small and medium size firms into bankruptcy and enraged consumers into the streets ended the honeymoon with the Argentine electorate quite abruptly.  This initial massive dose of free enterprise ‘medicine’ was prescribed by the local and Wall Street bankers and investors who had promised a new golden era for capitalism!  …

Brazil:  Wall Street’s Three Month ‘Whirl-Wind’ Honeymoon

Most of the current elected members of the Brazilian Congress, Senate and the recently-installed (rather than elected) President, as well as his cabinet, are in trouble:  The hero, Michael Temer and his argonauts, chosen by Wall Street to privatize the Brazilian economy and usher in another ‘golden dawn’ for finance capital, now all face criminal changes, arrest and long prison sentences for money laundering, bribery, fraud, tax evasion and corruption.

In less than four months, the entire political edifice constructed to impeach the elected President Dilma Rousseff and then de-nationalize key sectors of the economy, is shaking.   So much for the financial press’s proclamation of a new era of “business friendly” policies in Brazilia.

Ha ha, the best laid plans of “rats and spooks” in Latin America is a big failure.  Now the 2016 election is upon us and the CIA and FBI are pulling out all the stops to upend the two major candidates, neither of whom they want to ascend to power and rein in the unfettered power of the US shadow government.  The agencies are irate that the American people rejected their candidates in the primaries.  So, what is the latest “false flag” being spoon fed to the American people?  The Russian Government is interfering with the American election.  Bullsh*t.  From Alex Jones:

Excerpt:

CONFIRMED: US INTEL OPERATIVES LEAKED CLINTON CAMPAIGN EMAILS, NOT RUSSIA

It’s now clear from numerous sources that the Podesta hack, which led to Wikileaks releasing tens of thousands of Clinton campaign emails, as well as other hacks targeting the Democratic Party, were the work of U.S. intelligence operatives…  Sources who have spoken privately to Alex Jones but don’t want to be named have confirmed that government and intelligence operatives worked in tandem to provide Julian Assange’s organization with the Podesta emails.

This is backed up by former British ambassador Craig Murray, who was told by security insiders that the email leak “comes from within official circles in Washington DC.”  William Binney, NSA whistleblower and former technical head of the NSA, also told Infowars back in August that the email leaks which have negatively impacted the Democratic Party were carried out by individuals within the U.S. intelligence community who were angry at Hillary exposing classified information and sought to take revenge.

Yes, and while the intelligence community is throwing everything in their massive covert goody bag at Hillary Clinton before Tuesday’s election, the Republican establishment is coalescing around Paul Ryan to keep Trump from winning the electoral vote.  It is too late, Trump has already won.  Trump is truly the candidate of change. 

Not only has Trump stood by the people of the United States, he has stood by the people of the world especially in the UK, Russia and Syria.  Now the people will stand by Trump and Trump will be the leader of the free world.  Under a President Trump, America will be great again, because America will be good again.  Under President Trump the world will be a better place.  On Tuesday America’s sixteen year nightmare will be over, thank God.
