Koch Brothers Will Not Oppose Globalist Clinton; Ryan Headlines Event
Breitbart ^ | 07/30/16 | Julia Hahn

Posted on 07/30/2016 9:03:32 PM PDT by Enlightened1

As new reports indicate that the Koch Brothers are furthering Hillary Clinton’s candidacy by refusing to run negative ads against her, House Speaker Paul Ryan will headline a lavish retreat hosted by the libertarian billionaires and the Freedom Partners Chamber of Commerce.

As CNN reports:

The powerful political network helmed by Charles and David Koch is ruling out running advertisements intended to hurt Hillary Clinton, another sign of their insistence on avoiding the presidential race. The Koch network has previously said they will not back Republican candidate Donald Trump, but on Saturday officials told reporters that they would not run negative Clinton spots…

Network officials outlined their plans here as 400 of their donors prepared to hear from a roster of Republican leaders. House Speaker Paul Ryan is among the politicians who scored invites to one of the nation’s most sought-after political retreats at a lavish campus nestled in the Rocky Mountains…Ryan will be joined here at the summit hosted by the Freedom Partners Chamber of Commerce.”

“The Kochs are effectively indifferent between Trump and Clinton,” CNN writes, noting the Kochs’ strong opposition to Trump’s “America first” positions on trade and immigration.

Indeed, as both Bernie Sanders and Jeff Sessions have explained, the Koch brothers support “open borders” immigration policies that will drive down wages for American workers.

This is getting better by the day. Pretty much telling the world that there is in fact a globalist faction of money changers that has thrown in with leftwing ideology.

And Trump, Israel and the American people are the enemy.

Will enough people awaken / be aware ? Sadly, I have family members who, well, are AFU regarding the details.

I’m sure a bunch of billionaires being against Donald Trump will really hurt his chances among ordinary Americans.

Thought Koch bros. were diabolical Republicans. Cruz was our party’s Manchurian.

Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham, Glenn Beck.

When was the last time these Jokers opposed a Spending Bill - or mentioned the debt or the Fed printing money?

The debt will crush the country at some point. Sure looks like they’re holding hands and lining up to be silent on the subject, just like Hellary.

That was supposed to be the case. Did they back Cruz?

Most all the billionaires seem to be big on the New World Order. They live on Elysium, or at least think they do. Their money gives them the ability to create a reality-distortion field for themselves and their families. They never have to leave it.

Eventually, they start to think it is actual reality. Who is going to tell them otherwise? Anyone says anything they don't like, they get fired.

ROFL!!! South Shore!!

I HATE the heat but I’m a souterner at heart.

What did I have in common with the 40 hippies in my office before I got sick.

And the other four boroughs call us rednecks anyway, so now that I work on Staten Island, that’s close enough.

What, the South can’t have colonies? :) Maybe SC can buy us.

Oligarchs got to keep the masses confused, they don’t all work for the same side, seriously, they don’t all meet behind closed doors and coordinate who gets elected President?

The Koch brothers almost blew that carefully orchestrated illusion of Kabuki theater up by backing Hillary. Good thing they walked it back. Afterall, Hillary has only received close to 50M from hedge funds and Wall St. compared to Trump getting less than a million. Wouldn’t want the masses to clue in to how this really works.

Big business likes the cheap labor too much, and obviously the Koch Brothers do also.
