MEET THE PRESS (NBC): Attorney General Loretta Lynch;

Tell me, WHO among the panel is going to challenge her (seriously, not softball questions) for her threat to prosecute and imprison any American who dares to confront Islam?p>

What will Paul Ryan Do?

Nothing.

What will Mitch McConnell do?

Nothing.

I know what the gutless cowards WILL do. They will cut military benefits, they will slash military pensions, they will destroy milityar healhcare, and they will fully fund Trillions for the GIBSMEDATS.

One heck of a party that sends me solicitations for money.

Zero,his handlers, are leading up to issuing an EO on gun control. Its probably already been written for years.He’s just waiting or probably fomenting as many of these attacks as he can so the EO will not ruin his legacy or destroy the Demoncrat party.

[CincyRichieRich]

Sekolow...so angry I hate autocorrect and i am not young and using a small device typing does make it hard so forgive me.
‘Yellow’ is what my stupid kindle changed Sekelow to after I okayed it!

[Sirius Lee]

It’s incredible. Cruz rises to second place in the race and so who do the drivebys put on? Fast fading Carson, and a bunch of sub 4 percenters like Paul, Linda, Krispie, Kasich and jebtard who has an anvil tied to his ankle.

[rodguy911]

No question but in addition to guns we have to always watch what is going on in the background as well. During the calif. attacks many large financial institutions were downgraded while everyone’s attention was focused otherwise.
If you think this happened in a vacuum raise your hand...seeing no hands....

Standard & Poor’s downgraded the credit ratings of J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., Goldman Sachs Group and six other major U.S. banks, saying it is no longer confident that the U.S. government would step in to support them in a future crisis.

S&P cut its ratings of the nonoperating holding companies (NOHC) of the eight U.S. banks determined to be “globally systemically important” by one notch. That has lowered ratings for Goldman Sachs GS, +2.59% Citigroup Inc. C, +2.95% Morgan Stanley MS, +2.53% and Bank of America Corp. BAC, +2.89% to BBB-plus, placing them just three notches above speculative, or “junk” status.

It cut J.P. Morgan to A-minus, and lowered State Street Corp. STT, +3.29% Bank of New York Mellon Corp. BK, +2.51% and Wells Fargo & Co. WFC, +2.71% to A.

The move comes as the Federal Reserve works to complete rules that will dictate the amount and type of capital banks must hold to absorb a major shock to the financial system. The Fed said in October that the country’s six biggest banks are facing a $120 billion capital shortfall under rules that will require them to hold large amounts of debt that can be converted into equity in a crisis.

“Based on our review of progress made toward putting in place a viable U.S. resolution plan, we now consider the likelihood that the U.S. government would provide extraordinary support to its banking system to be ‘uncertain’ and are removing the uplift based on government support from our ratings,” S&P said in a statement.

The rules will set a minimum level of ‘total loss-absorbing capacity’ (TLAC) that banks must have to limit the impact that the failure of a single large institution could have on the entire financial system and avoid the kind of taxpayer bailouts that were needed — and controversial — during the 2008 financial crisis. The rules are part of the Dodd-Frank Act, the set of regulations put in place to address the issue of ‘too big to fail.”

Love it Bray. Great message as usual. I am pretty sure that He is waiting for us to do something before He steps in and takes control of the situation.

[MustKnowHistory]

It is ok, we have all been there. And it was obvious you were referring to Jay Sekulow.

Tonight’s speech should be a doozy.

[rodguy911]

Its gonna be one heck of a first year for whomever is president,assuming its someone from our side.
Never has a country been sabotaged like ours and still been able to function.You just wonder how long we can hold out.

[shalom aleichem]

My biggest concern is we get attacked and Obambi immediately “surrenders”. What do we do about it? Sue him?! hahahaha

Congress is truly a collection of fools and craven cowards. The Dems held hearings and raised Hell on practically everything Dubya, his dad, Nixon, Ford and Reagan did. Total scrutiny, and media supported every second and ounce of it.

[HoosierWordsmith]

>>>is it possible that he turns them down? <<<

I have been wondering this also for some time. Last Sunday, AB put up a great compilation of 2016 candidate appearances on the Sunday talk shows. With 3 appearances, Ted was only ahead of Pataki (2) and Gilmore (0). Trump led the ‘Sunday Talk Primary’ with 25 interviews, Carson had 21, and Kasich 16. All the others had from 5 (Santorum) to 14 (iCarly) appearances.

Part of these results has to be related to networks chasing ratings associated with the Trump phenomenon. The MSM also has a kingmaker (or Queen maker for Hillary) agenda by tearing down Pubbie candidates and by schilling for preferred GOPe opponents (Yeb, Rubio, Kasich, now Christie) for the Hildabeast.

Cruz has been on a major roll in the past few weeks, yet his last Sunday appearance was mid-October, 10 days before the infamous CNBC debate. It would seem that Ted has decided that the Sunday talk shows are a waste of his time and he is going another route in getting himself and his message out to voters. Even though he can easily handle the questioning, why would he appear with a partisan hack like Steffy Stephanopolous, who’s only objective is to make you and other Pubbie candidates look bad by axing questions that set the liberal agenda.

If these MSM Sunday talks are boycotting Ted, it certainly is not working!

[rodguy911]

He can't do anything like that without destroying his precious legacy and destroying the dem party. So I don't think he will go that far.

But what he will do and they have been doing for years is to set us up for a huge fall. Everything and anything that can erupt immediately after he leaves office from the economy to the mid east will all be ready to crash. On that you can count.

[CincyRichieRich]

If they raise rates chaos will rule and it all plays into 0’s plans. Many of the bankers in those institutions voted for him.

[HoosierWordsmith]

I think a BO gun grab can only mean one thing...the economy is about to go down the toilet and the DIMS need to distract with an issue to run on next year! Bright shiny object!

[bray]

Thanks RG.

Weirdest thing, my internet went down from a power outage than killed my backup battery and when I finally figured it out began working again. The Frontier guy said it had no affect on the system and should have never went down.

How long have we been warning of the Death Cult and their financing by Saudis?

[bray]

Amen Brother!

Shalom

[bray]

Nice to see Steponallofus is interviewing his boss. Is there any question she wrote her own questions and answers.

[Qiviut]

Talking about what happened this past week ... what ever happened in Paris with the climate change cr@p? Did they reach a historic Omuslim legacy boosting agreement? I usually pay attention to what is going on & I do know he made a total @ss of himself while there, but I don’t recall hearing the final result.

[rodguy911]

Raising interest rates is the biggest POS/BS con I have ever heard. Its all a huge ruse by bankers so they can charge even more that they already do.

Member banks currently pay zero,that's nothing for their money. So how much should they charge us?

So if the fed "raises rates" member banks will now pay .25 of a percent. A quarter of a percent interest to borrow money to loans us to buy homes or boats, or that imaginary loan to a small business.

it's all bullshit. What really happened to their costs?NADA!

If their cost is now zero and it goes to .25% so friggin' what? All this is becomes an excuse for member banks to charge even more than they currently charge for taking little or no risk and to get people to think that rates are going to skyrocket and hurry up and borrow. These guys are little more than sophisticated car salesmen.

[Alas Babylon!]

Yes, I’m coming to the belief that Ted Cruz is the one not wanting to be on the Sunday shows.

If not, he would be mentioning it, I’m certain. I think he would at least challenge them as cowards for not having him on, and declare they’re too afraid of losing to his debate skills.

But he hasn’t mentioned any of this as far as I know.

Personally, I wish he would go on every week!

I WANT to see him skewer Chuck U, Steppanallofit, Chris WallAss, Jake Rapper, and Not Incontinent-Bob!

[Alas Babylon!]

Yes, I want to hear that interview. At LEAST to document the hypocrisy!

Please, do we have a reporter with enough stomach and courage this morning to listen to and report on the Hillary ass-kissing on A(ll)B(out)C(linton)????
