  • David Fahrenthold: The Clintons' Jane Mayer of 2016?

    The Internet, Free Republic and the Washington Post | September 23, 2016 | aas
    The Washington Post's David Fahrenthold (D-Harvard) is currently yammering mightily about Donald Trump's charitable foundations. However, when Fahrenthold and his "watchdog media" buds at the Post reviewed the dirty dealings at the Clinton Foundation in June of last year, the "vigilant pack" was strangely silent. It appears as though David Fahrenthold is 2016's version of 1998's Jane Mayer of The New Yorker. When the Clinton crime machine needed a hitpiece on Linda Tripp in 1998, Jane Mayer stepped to the plate for the Clinton machine. Not many people knew that Mayer's husband, William Hamilton [in the DC political incest pool,...
  • Is Tim Kaine a Communist?

    US Defense Watch ^ | September 22, 2016 | Ray Starmann
    The Democratic PartyÂ’s nominee for the Vice Presidency, Senator Tim Kaine, spent his youth as a willing dupe for the KGB propaganda machine and its active measures in Latin America during the Cold War. In 1980, at age 22, Kaine interrupted his law studies at Harvard to sign up for a year long stint in the Jesuit Volunteer Corps, which was heavily involved in various types of missionary work in Central America. During this time, the merde was indeed hitting the ventilateur south of the US border. Communist backed guerillas were intent on overthrowing the pro US government in El...

    Twitter temporarily suspended a prolific academic over his tweet regarding protesters in Charlotte, N.C. blocking access to highways. Wednesday night, protesters were reportedly blocking the interstate in response to the death of Keith Lamont Scott, a black man who was shot and killed by a black police officer on Tuesday. In response to the protest, Glenn Reynolds, a University of Tennessee law professor known for his blog, Instapundit, tweeted motorists should “run them down”:

    The Democratic Party has become something both JFK and RFK would deplore—the party of war. I was a Democrat all my life. I came to Washington to serve President John Kennedy and Attorney General Robert Kennedy. When the president was murdered and his brother struck off on his own, I joined his Senate campaign and staff as his legislative assistant and speechwriter, until his presidential campaign ended with his own assassination. I ran on a (losing) Democratic ticket in the New York state elections of 1970. When I was working to enact my own program of police reform in the...

    According to energy magnate T. Boone Pickens, Obama has been a loser for the energy industry. And not just a loser, but “a complete loser”. That he is not a fan of President Obama’s policies—including his energy policies--comes as no surprise. Pickens said in 2014 that Obama was “the worst president we’ve ever had”.

Trump won’t be particularly well-informed, and figures it won’t particularly matter — and may well be right... ... Without a teleprompter, message discipline still tends to elude him. The one-on-one format for an hour-and-a-half could make his thin knowledge painfully obvious.

  • 'Peaceful protesters' in Charlotte attempt to burn unconscious photographer alive

    All just part of a "protest" right, media? We’ve already presented two examples which prove the so-called “peaceful protests” in Charlotte, N.C. are anything but. We saw a CNN reporter get attacked on the street, and we saw an innocent man get dragged into a parking structure - where he was beaten while begging for mercy. Stories like those are all over the internet, and they’re terrible, but I suppose they’re not quite as awful as having someone try to set you on fire while you’re unconscious. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what happened to a photographer who was tasked with covering...

    I see that #HilzHiatus has rolled their candidate out this week to prove she’s not a hologram:Although I noted in the Orlando appearance she avoided the usual side-to-side teleprompter reading - in order to avoid any more commentary on her wonky eye. Instead she either used notes on the podium, turned her entire head/body or spoke directly straight into the camera, which used to be standard practice before the multi-TOTUS era butt now appears odd.The crowd in Orlando was yuge! Not Donald Trump public arena yuge, butt HRC local school gym yuge:And it was only scheduled because she was in...

    Black Lives Matter thugs strike again, this time in Charlotte, North Carolina. The fallacy that police are hunting and killing black men indiscriminately, along with the lie of ‘hands up, don’t shoot,’ keeps growing. It is not an accident that the lies began under the direction of President Barack Obama. He is the most racist President that has held that office since another Democrat, Woodrow Wilson. Wilson, a Southern Democrat, staffed his office with Southerners who began the process of removing black Americans from positions of authority in the government, and re-segregated the armed forces. He undid 45 years of...
  • NFL’s end run to the left doesn’t sit well with Freedom Alliance President Tom Kilgannon

    “Kilgannon Demands NFL Halt Anti-American Protests” Not everyone agrees with the radical swerve to the left exhibited by the National Football League during the past years. On September 6th, Freedom Alliance President Tom Kilgannon addressed a direct though respectful letter to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, asking that he put an end to the Anti-American, National Anthem protests of San Francisco Forty Niners’ reserve Colin Kaepernick and other players. Speaking “…on behalf of those we represent at Freedom Alliance – military heroes and their families,” Kilgannon made certain to remind Commissioner Goodell that the NFL, its teams owners and players are...

    People are getting beaten and a city is being destroyed, and she has just joined in spreading the lie that made it all happen Yesterday we told you about how the news media slandered Charlotte police officers, suggesting that they were white racists monsters who shot an innocent black man who was merely reading a book. These reports sparked riots that have now raged in the city for two nights. And it was all a lie. Keith Lamont Scott was not reading a book. He was brandishing a gun. He was not acting innocently. He was acting in a threatening...

    Happy days are here again the progressive puppet masters sing as everyone else sinks into the third world According to the megaphones of the Progressive-controlled media, the Obama economy is booming. For the investor class it has been a rising tide that lifts all yachts or as it is expressed in Bloomberg, “When President Barack Obama was elected in November 2008, the U.S. economy was shrinking at a rate unmatched since World War II. In the seven years between then and his final State of the Union address Tuesday night, global investors have enjoyed stellar results from the rapidly expanding...

    Soros-funded Black Lives Matter inflicts its terror in a sleepy Southern city. Black Lives Matter rioters claiming systemic racial discrimination is killing black people have laid siege to largely black Charlotte, North Carolina, after a black cop who reports to a black police chief shot and killed a black suspect who reportedly refused to drop his handgun. With Election Day only weeks away, it is possible the chaos in the Tarheel State is part of a left-wing get-out-the-vote effort to foment unrest in the state’s black communities. Remember that Democrat Barack Obama narrowly won the vitally important battleground state in...

Then Kirby tried to assure Americans that the “vetting process,...

    In 1967—an iconic time of “black” riots, burning cities, looting, and political murder—threats of yet another senseless riot were made against Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Once called “the City of Brotherly Love,” Philly had become a hateful playground for violent, black militants, communists, power-pushers, and carpet-baggers from all over the uninformed, disinformed, and mis-led, radical, liberal landscape.

    Video: White man begging for mercy viciously beaten by black mob In Charlotte Daily Wire September 22, 2016 As rioting continues in Charlotte, North Carolina, supposedly over the shooting of armed black man Keith Lamont Hill by a black police officer, video has now emerged reportedly showing some of the roving rioters beating a white man in a parking lot as he begs to be left alone. The rioters kick and punch the man; at one point seven men are in a circle around the prone man, pummeling him. The rioters continue to stomp at his head and neck as...

    Obama and Company can drive coal miners and fishermen out of work. They can take away the health insurance, send the IRS to compromise and silence dissenters; they can overwhelm your town or city with terrorists posing as “refugees” Read the news in the sky. The ‘News in the Sky’ is the only news that tells us that God is still in his Heaven no matter whatever happens to be taking place on Earth. God told the Prophet Jeremiah, “Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you.” In other words, the Almighty knew every single one of us...

    Deputy Chief of Detectives Chicago PD, Fred Coffee Image from fox32chicago.com A retired Deputy Police Chief of Detectives in Chicago should be glad that gun carry law reform has been passed.  He was shot and had to return fire.  He wounded his 21-year-old assailant, who was later arrested.  From the chicagotribune.com: Officers walked in and out of the park's stadium south of 82nd, where a retired deputy police chief had exchanged gunfire with a robber during an exercise session for senior citizens about 9:30 a.m. Wednesday. The retired officer, Fred Coffey, 72, was hit in the arm. The robber,...
