Noonan has really jumped the shark and the people who respond to her screeds aren’t giving her a pass.

Noonan is a good wordsmith. The only reason I read her yesterday is that my kid brother posted a link to her article with the comment "Unlike much of our ruling class, Noonan at least grasps that its rule is not preordained." After reading the Noonan garbage, I failed to understand connection between it and the remark that enticed me to read it. Not much time wasted, in the scheme of things.

One nice thing about being president is that you can edit the work of your speechwriters. Noonan's words came out of Reagan's mouth, but not Noonan's world view.

The dinner with Israeli ministers and sr trump staff has been cancelled. Reports are mixed. Some say US cancelled it over logistics..likely fake excuse. Some say it is because ministers revolted ..likely due to comments from tillerson and the new ambassador.

Whatever the case..dinner cancelled

Morning AB, All. As always, thank you AB for doing this thread so reliably and keeping the peace with gentle thread policing. Thank you Bray for weekly written wisdom, Thank all yon contributors for excellent commentary to flesh it all out.

I am very happy FreeRepublic is up today, thank you site owners and workers, you were missed. I suggest if you haven’t contributed to the Freepathon perhaps consider doing so.

Below is my daily journal of political events. If too long please scroll by but do stay around to add you political commentary.

Tuesday-date- 5/16/17 Daily Update


Best I can figure out President Trump let slip the name of some city involved with the attacks on ISIS.

At least that’s what the Washington Post says happened during a meeting recently between some Russian diplomat and Trump.

Man they are determined to bring Trump down so much they make up lies.

I am so sick of hearing about the Russians and so is much of America.

And everywhere we hear about this “special prosecutor”. But to get a prosecutor you need a crime….YOU NEED A CRIME!!!!

These Democrats want to get the prosecutor to go and FIND THE CRIME!

This morning I saw, guess who?

Remember Ken Starr?

I remember him well, how the news media tried to make up things about him being a pervert, how they followed him as he emptied his trash.

AND that awful Fitzgerald guy who put poor Scooter Libby in jail although everyone knew who let is slip that Valeria Plame was a night time janitor at the NSA.

A special prosecutor does not guarantee justice in any manner. A special prosecutor guarantees a political showboat and that’s all.

Daily Update


Trump takes off for G7, grand tour around the world. Seth Rich


So President Trump is taking a trip around the world and the liberals/left does not like it. They do not, under any circumstances, want Trump to succeed or look good.

We’ll be watching that trip with eagle eyes.

The biggest story of yesterday was a new look into the death of DNC operative, Seth Rich.

Rich was shot in the back at 4 in the morning. He was left for dead. His wallet and cell phone were still on his person.

Now it comes out that Rich was involved with the Wikileaks release of information.

So somehow he ended up dead?

I’ve spent a lifetime casting glances at the many unusual deaths around the Clintons. So have many of us, I suspect.

People kill themselves, get in unusual airplane crashes, die strange and weird deaths. There has been compiled a list of these strange deaths and it’s way up there, in the 60’s or some such.

Could the Clintons be behind the death of Seth Rich?

Thursday-date-5/18/17
Daily Update


Independent Counsel Appointed. Democrats win. Stick market begins to sink.


They’re going to win, people. Indeed, they’ve already won.

Because every damn one of you out there reading this who think your vote means a damn thing to the powerful bureaucrats and appointed elites…..you are wrong.

It’s Robert Mueller, who all the pundits this morn tell us is a wonderful, great and wonderful guy, is the appointee.

They said the same thing about Comey.

James Comey, who controlled EVERYBODY in D.C. as we learn it.

Why aren’t the Republicans appointing someone to investigate that meeting between Bill Clinton and Loretta Lynch? Why isn’t there a counsel to look into Hillary’s emails?

The Republicans are a majority, they have no power?

Even Trump tweeted everything I wrote above just this morning.

This is just so wrong but I worry no more.

I give up.

They have won.

Rush Limbaugh Annoys


FreeRepublic, one of my favorite web sites is down. Has been all week. Please don’t ask me how a web site can be down all week. I don’t know.

The day before-Weds of this past week-a special prosecutor was named to study the Russians, who my dogs told me pooped in our hallway.

I was anxious for news. I’m a news junkee. FreeRepublic, Facebook even, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin…..I get a news/political fix hourly.

Except yesterday when Rush Limbaugh decided Roger Ailes needed almost his entire first hour for adulation.

Now I have nothing against Roger Ailes and may he rest in peace. And for sure Rush should pay homage who helped him so much. BUT FOR ALMOST AN HOUR?!?!?!? Plays sound bytes and quotes from speeches and on and on and on and on.

Then, when Rush finally talks about the news he get a freaking phone call…this in the second hour, with another question about Ailes…and that took up another fifteen minutes of time, these in the second hour.

I’m over it. I was anxious and was looking forward to Rush’s take on the special counsel and I got to hear about Roger Ailes.

Who, by the way, had some pretty dastardly things said about him toward the end….Fox all day praising this man as if Jesus.

Saturday-date-5/20/17 Daily Update


Rush Limbaugh was right!


Yesterday I said some angry things about Rush Limbaugh, mostly because I was mad at him for spending the entire first hour or his program boring me about Roger Ailes.

Time to give Rush his due because he’s seldom, if ever, wrong.

But when Rush made this assertion I was flummoxed. I thought he was nuts.

“It’s not the Democrat party leading all this resistance and attempt to destroy Trump,” Rush told us. “IT’S THE MEDIA!”

First, when I see a reference to this nameless, invisible “media” my eyes glaze over. I know there was once, or maybe still is, some kind of group email known as Journolist” or some such. But beyond that how does this monster invisible “media” hold meetings? Do they vote on what to say? Where are those tapes?

However I am aware that there is a big media conglomerate out there and while I don’t understand where and how they get their talking points, they do all seem to have a daily meme that seems to be mutual.

The notion that this invisible group of nobodies somehow is controlling our country flabbergasts me. I thought Rush lost his mind.

AND YET HE’S RIGHT!

The media is running this show and what a powerful position to be in.

I do know that Valerie Jarrett’s daughter is a bigwig at CNN. There are other gubmint people inside of national news organizations. The media is also one of the most nepotistic organizations on the planet. There’s hardly anyone with a position of any reknown that doesn’t have a parent in the news world. I would include Cooper Anderson, Chris Wallace, Steve Deucy and many others in this group.

And now, with the Democrats all the hell over the place, the media steps up to the plate and is running the show.

This is scary, people.

On a personal note


Big story coming up on HBO called “Fatal Family Secrets”. Article this week in People magazine, which a neighbor who knows my daughter, walked straight to my door.

She killed her mother, this Gypsy Rose Blanchard, who it is claimed was the victim of Munchausen by proxy by that same mother, Dee Dee Blanchard.

It’s all a lie.

The wonderful Gypsy Rose had her boyfriend kill her mother. She got ten years for second degree murder.

She was 23 years old and in all those years, school and hospitals, there was no one she could tell her mother was abusing her?

I bring this up because I am terrified my daughter will do the same thing to me. I am discovering that this is a big deal with these people. They spend their lives abusing and disfiguring themselves then when they grow up they say their mothers did it. I posted right here on this forum an excerpt from my daughter’s GOFUNDME page where she claims that I had Munchausen by Proxy and this is why she needs money. I also posted a story about a woman who lied about being kidnapped, said it was a Mexican woman took her. She too said her mother abused her and that’s why she’s nuts.

And note please that this crazy woman, Gypsy Lee, got her boyfriend to kill her mother Because they can sell ice to an Eskimo, coal to a coal miner, sex to a prostitute. There is nothing a Munchausen person can’t do. They would be great successes in life if they used their talents sanely.

This is not to say that there is no such thing as Munchausen by Proxy and mothers who abuse their own children for sympathetic attention. They are not normally in their 20’s, 40 in the case of my daughter, 30 in case of the kidnapped nutjob. At some point you think they could have told someone…a health caregiver, a teacher, a relative. Munchausen by Proxy victims are almost always discovered before age 10.

But hey, it’s a good lie.

This illness is starting to get a lot of attention, as well it should. Because my argument is that it’s part and parcel of the society of snowflakes we have. We all have a need for attention, but in this nut job society, sympathy is free and there are many who do bad things to get it.

If anything should ever happen to me all I ask is that yon reader not let her get away with it. SHE will never do anything but note please the above examples of how these people get others to do their evil deeds. My daughter makes a career out of bilking the mentally ill.

I have been in contact with the producer of this series and several others. I am fighting back.

Trump is treated with the utmost of respect in Saudi-land while over here the 24/7 attack of our President goes on.

The story of how the DNC/Deep State devised a plan to get the Seth Rich story out of the news and keep it about Trump/pootie/russia is a truly epic look at disinformation/media lying,deception and murder at the very least.

It goes like this:

Seth Rich was a 27 year old dc liberal working for the DNC who was a closet supporter of Bernie Sanders.He loved pandas and was incredibly tech savy. His secret internet handle was u/pandas4Bernie. Few knew that at DNC headquarters or he would have been take out earlier than he was.

....................

http://www.newsweek.com/seth-rich-murder-dnc-hack-julian-assange-hillary-clinton-donald-trump-492084

It was closing time at Lou’s City Bar when Seth Rich drained the last of his Bell’s Two Hearted Ales and started walking into the muggy night in a trendy neighborhood of northwest Washington, D.C. At 2:30 a.m. on July 10, the torrid heat that had gripped the city for weeks had eased slightly, with temperatures slipping into the low 70s.

Maybe it was the relative cool that prompted him to walk through several dark, dicey blocks to his apartment in Bloomingdale, a rapidly gentrifying neighborhood a mile away.

Or maybe he thought the walk would do him some good after venting to his longtime bartender about his unsuccessful efforts to reconcile his love life with his 12-hour days at the Democratic National Committee.

Whatever the reason, Rich, 27, a normally upbeat computer-voting specialist at the DNC, would soon leave family and friends grieving. And his decision to walk that night would become part of a wild election-year conspiracy theory that once again portrays Hillary Clinton and the Democrats as murderous criminals.

At 4:19 a.m., police patrolling nearby responded to the sound of gunfire in Bloomingdale and found Rich lying mortally wounded at a dark intersection a block and a half from a red-brick row house he shared with friends. He had multiple gunshot wounds in his back. About an hour and 40 minutes later, he died at a local hospital. Police have declined to say whether he was able to describe his assailants.

............................

https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/6bgbpx/insider_anon_claims_pedosta_used_seiu_people_to/

The above post which is very difficult to cut and paste suggests that the hit was a product of Jennifer Palmieri. It goes like this:

"This will be my only post on the subject because the leaks are starting to come out. John Podesta uses SEIU people to do his dirty work. I am not FBI anon but close.

Jennifer Palmeri had Seth murdered,but Robby Mook and John Podesta found out about it and had Jennifer consult with Hillary and Huma and they all decided it was best to silence Seth.

Shortly after the Seth hit the same players with help from others decided that the best path was to claim that the Russians had hacked into the dnc and that pootie was in collusion with Trump and the media would post nothing but that for the forseeable future. And they did and they are.

What had been going on was that Seth had sent some 44,000 emails to wiki leaks "not the Russians" and a few day after Rich's death Assange had printed all of them.

In essence the decision by Huma/Hillary that Podesta,Palmieri and the SEIU goons could go on and take out Rich was made solely to keep Hillary viable. Rich's testimony could have finally sent her to jail. Ironically, even after Rich was shot multiple times in the back and the "robbers" left forgetting to rob him,he was still alive.

Here is where it gets fuzzy.From what I have read it appears he was well enough to survive but an unknowns hospital person took charge and did not allow anyone near him until hours later after he was dead.

Bear in mind it was known around the hospital that Rich would probably survive when he was brought in only hours later he was dead.

My guess is Rich was shot on the sidewalk and killed at the hospital but I can't prove it.

Huge rewards have been posted for info on his death the dc police are being prevented from investigating by a known pedophile higher up in the dc force and the FBI is not doing anything. They consider it a local issue of robbery/ murder. Time for Jeff Sessions/Trump to step up and get to the bottom of all this.

The drivebys won't cover anything to do with Rich. They consider him a traitor to the DNC and Hillary since he supporter Bernie.

Recently his facebook stuff was hacked so the story is still very much alive.

There is a lot more but the above are the basics.

This has been an overwhelming week, no?

A special counsel appointed....remember Scooter Libby’s special counsel? It didn’t matter whether Libby was guilty or innocent. The swamp people were mad at Dick Cheney and punished his subordinate.

You don’t think this will happen again?

Trump’s trip to the Mideast is fascinating.

Let us start with the headscarf.

Why should women not of the Muslim faith have to wear head scarves? I am so proud of Trump and Melania for refusing to do so.

Oh, and he didn’t bow and kiss anybody’s ring. Oh, and he has yet to declare America the bad guys.

Today is going to be more about the speech, this trip and how to say bad things, than perhaps the Sunday talk shows themselves.

This should be interesting.

Momentary blip in US Israeli relations. Netanyahu knows we trust the Israelis more than any one in the mid east but at the same time we don't dare isolate the Saudis as long as we are in a crude oil era.

Until we go to electro magnetic free energy or a variation of slowly but surely the Saudis will become irrelevant. Everyone of the big players are fighting the free energy eventuality.

Truth is it won't be free anyway.

Thanks bud.

There is so much more it's unending.

Basically, the drivebys have successfully gotten a special Council investigator Mueller to investigate a non existing supposed alliance between Trump and Putin.

Wouldn't it be hilarious if the special investigator figured out what I wrote that the real truth is that Seth Rich sent the emails to wiki and his investigation went there!!

Furthermore, what happens if Mueller starts investigating Podesta,Hillary, Huma,Palmieri as he should be doing?

Lots of different ways this investigation could go.
