Erick Erickson Website “Resurgent” Paid By Pro-Cruz/Anti-Trump “Our Principles PAC”
Conservative Treehouse ^ | March 30, 2016

Posted on 03/30/2016 4:51:33 AM PDT by detective

Thanks to the candidacy of Donald Trump the financial intersection of money and political opinion, as guided by the monetary motives therein, has brought some amazing revelations to the surface.

These financial/media relationships have largely, and historically, remained hidden. They have damned sure never been publicly, clearly, and regularly stated so the consuming audience would know the presentation was fraught with financial conflict.

Yhis election has made clear that a lot of “Conservative Grass roots” media are actually GOPE Astroturf mercenaries.

“Conservative Media” plays the same role for the GOPE that Labor Unions and “Civil Rights” leaders play for the Dems. Their role is to make sure “Conservatives” stay docile in the slave quarters of the GOPE party plantation

Mark Levin is bought and paid for....he is owned by Cruz. What a fraud.

And aren’t we glad the Conservative Treehouse has no bias?

Trump’s campaign is exposing all the socialists and bottom feeders.

And we hear from the Ted Cruz/Bill Clinton moral equivalence crowd.

"These financial/media relationships have largely, and historically, remained hidden."

And that is a problem because?

Is it not something of a no-brainer that people put their money where their mouth is, and when it comes to politics they let the money do the talking? Besides, who wants a visit from the IRS?

Bias or not the forms don’t lie. Even a Cruz supporter as yourself should be happy to see the deceit exposed because the same deceit will eventually be used on your guy. GOPe shills are corrupt regardless of who your candidate is unless you are establishment,sell out to libs in your beliefs.

The Treehouse has a bias but is putting a lot of activities that would normally stay hidden. The same is true of other sites including those opposing Trump. We are learning more about the establishment and how it works than ever before.

One of the reasons I support Trump is that he his forcing these organizations and activities to go public with their biases pro or con. The same would be true if he is the general election candidate. Otherwise, we will be subject to the same Uniparty undercutting of our Republic, or really what is left of it.

Levin is simply GOPe. I do not mind his going after Trump, fair game on his issues, what I mind is his covering all the lies of Ted Cruz and the actions of the GOPe.

I used to believe deeply he was about the constitution, our liberties and freedoms. This election he has shown that is simply a cover for driving his listeners in the direction most beneficial to the GOPe and liberties, constitution and freedoms be damned.

With the tea party movement, the power brokers infiltrated and only went for the issues they cared about. Issues the grass roots cared about, such as the invasion of the US?....forget it.

Now their approach is to buy off "conservative" radio. They've destroyed its validity as a conduit of Constitutional Conservative concerns.
