RSBN video of Trump Speaking before Pastors and Pews Orlando meeting

Goodness gracious! I’m not sure exactly who/what Mad World News is, butt they just published an article about this Tweet by @HillsMedRecord (account now deleted…or shut) down by Twitter):Here’s the story: notes from an ostensibly leaked official health record of one Hillary Rodham Clinton dated February 5, 2014 reveals some yuge health deficits:In addition to the “complex partial seizures” – which we’ve all witnessed several times now -the doctor’s notes indicates she has something called “Subcortical Vascular Dementia.”  That sounds serious. No wonder Huma warned her handlers that Hillary is “often confused.”Now I can’t speak to the veracity of this...

Below is the verbatim e-mail I sent to Crown Forum’s publicity office* at Random House on Wednesday, August 10, 2016: SUBJECT: Likely plagiarism by Crown author in form of “refactoring” To the publisher of “Barons of the Beltway: Inside the Princely World of Our Washington Elite—and How to Overthrow Them” Dear Sir or Madam: In case you have not yet been alerted, serious allegations of plagiarism — in the form of the refactoring of others’ work without citations, in lieu of original work of her own — are being made on the Internet about the Michelle Fields book referenced above,...

During the last two weeks, Hillary Clinton has been rising in the polls, although the polls are indeed skewed in her favor. She has been able to distract many uninformed voters, who are more focused on fertilizing their lawn and weekend boating adventures this summer than political campaigns. She has been able to distort her record with the dexterity and aplomb of a safe cracker, while continuing to deny that she has been anything but the most stainless civil servant and a model citizen of the Republic. The Clinton Campaign is being assisted at every level by much of the...

CNN’s biased, Hillary-loving anchor, Jake Tapper overheard two older women discussing Trump at his gym. You’ll recall that Jake Tapper was caught up in the recent Wikileaks DNC email hack when emails surfaced showing him colluding with the DNC to help fine-tune their message. Jake was likely shocked by what he heard. After they got out the defibrillator and brought Jake “back” he tweeted this out: Jake Tapper/@jaketapper: "Overheard at gym, two older women complaining about various Trump comments, convo ends with "but I am still voting for him." "Oh me too" 10:17 AM - 11 Aug 2016

Anthony Weiner Continues to Sext Women, Says Former Flame BY: Chandler Gill August 11, 2016 6:17 pm Sydney Leathers, one of many women who exchanged sexually explicit pictures with disgraced politician Anthony Weiner, told Page Six on Thursday that Weiner is back to his old ways with a new woman. Weiner, whose sexting scandals forced to resign from Congress in 2011 and then scuttled his run for mayor of New York City in 2013, used the name “Carlos Danger” when sexting Leathers. She informed Page Six that a woman approached her about going to the press with the information she...

A joint attack executed by Kurdish forces and United States Special Forces led to the death of the Islamic State fighter in charge of the terrorist group’s oil operations in Iraq and Syria, according to a new report by Reuters. Sami Jassim al-Jabouri, who had also been known to authorities as Haji Hamad, along with his assistant, were killed “in the vicinity of Qaim,” according to a statement released by the two parties that carried out the attack. A spokesman from the Pentagon added that coalition forces were still assessing the total results of the planned operation. "The mission was...

FOX News - the Five - consensus echoes what was being said by others on the Network yesterday. There's nothing really wrong with what Candy Crowley did during the debate - and it didn't really affect anything. Dana Perino said she's known Candy Crowley for years - and Perino attests that it wasn't intentional. Gutfeld added that he thought it wasn't a real or sincere issue for Trump to have concerns about the Fairness of Debate Moderators. Seems FOX is focused on defeating points of the right. Numerous panel members dismissed Candy Crowley's actions as much ado about nothing.

Do we too retain the word “republic” long after we have lost the reality? Is the American Republic beyond hope? President Richard Nixon once asked Dr. Russell Kirk if “we have any hope.” Dr. Kirk replied that “…it is all a matter of belief. If most intelligent and energetic people come to believe the prophets of despair, then indeed ruin falls upon the state, for many folk withdraw to hidie-holes, there to conceal themselves from the coming wrath.” We should ask ourselves if we encourage our fellows to have hope. Do we suggest paths to cultural renewal as often as...

Got our confirmation. Mr. Kitty and I are going to the Trump Rally in Fairfield, Connecticut this Saturday. I've never been to a political rally before (heck, I just became a Republican so I could vote for Trump in the primaries) so any advice? Any other Freepers going?

A year ago, Mike Strickland was beaten and ended in the hospital for several months.  His cameras were stolen, then returned with the drives wiped.  He has video of the attack, but the authorities refused to prosecute.  Recently, Mike was threatened by a mob of anarchists and Black Lives Matter activists again.  This time he protected himself.  Victoria Taft has written a well researched article, with video, that shows Mike Strickland defending himself from the mob in Portland.  The link has it all. From victoriataft.com: Mike Strickland was arrested and charged in Portland for pulling a gun at a...

Jim Rutenberg of the New York Times did Donald Trump and his supporters a great favor when he admitted the media was not being objective in its reporting on Trump. Last Sunday, without any self-consciousness, Rutenberg looked in our eyes and said, “Yes we lie for Clinton. What you are going to do about it?” http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/08/business/balance-fairness-and-a-proudly-provocative-presidential-candidate.html His snarky “up yours” meshes perfectly with the polling fraud exposed in the DNC leaked Emails. They proved both CBS and NBC collaborate with the DNC to create false poll results favorable to Hillary Clinton. Now comes an NBC online poll that is frankly...

Meteor showers are associated with streams of debris left behind by comets. The Perseids are dust bits from Comet Swift-Tuttle and are famous for creating bright fireballs and elevated meteor activity for nearly two weeks in mid-August. This year it is predicted the shower will peak on the overnight of Thursday, Aug. 11, to Friday, Aug. 12. It is predicted to be twice the usual intensity. That’s because Earth will pass through the center of the debris stream rather than the grazing encounter we experience in most years. The display should be well worth the loss of a few hours’...

Gigantic losses put exchanges on the brink, send program careening into chaos Remember when everyone watching ObamaCare was focused on how many people had signed up? First they needed 7 million, then 11 million, and on it went as new targets replaced the old. These weren’t meaningless - at least it didn’t appear that way. The targets represented the critical mass the Obama Administration itself said the program needed to be economically sustainable. Insurance, they told us, is about risk pools. If you’ve got enough people in the risk pool, you’d have enough premiums being paid in to cover those...

During his losing 2006 campaign for re-election as a United States Senator from Virginia, George Allen noticed a little brown man following him from rally to rally. He made an off-hand remark calling the little man “Macaca” which the media researched and found meant female monkey in Portuguese. This set off a fake, media generated “firestorm” that put Allen into a downward spiral he never recovered from. He did all of the standard things; went on a Trent Lott Apology Tour and apologized to Macaca personally but to no avail. Several times during Donald Trump’s campaign the media has been...

West Enders: Never surrender! Efforts to rejuvenate the West End are not new in this community’s history. Mayor Rick Mueller reminded us of that fact during his “Spotlight” speech Tuesday morning at the Windemere Hotel and Conference Center. Technical problems prevented Mayor Mueller from starting his remarks with the benefit of a supporting video. All he had were a fist-full of notes and his decades-long memories of what Sierra Vista was like in its earlier days. That was more than enough. In the late ’90s, he and another local politician, Pat Call, invested themselves in doing something about the West...

It seems Hillary can't get past 45%. A few outliers there but very oversampled. Observation of these polls and articles show Hillary with huge leads in "A Two Way Race". There is NO two way race. Hillary loses when others are included. Trump is usually level or up a hair. The Indys will determine the race. Does anyone really think Johnson is going to get 10%? PIAPS doesn't seem to move regardless and I believe that is where Trumps votes are going to come from. His rallies are huge. News has them on film so they can pick at any...

I'm convinced that the Ruger 10/22 is the most popular .22 rifle of all time. Not only is it a great little rifle right out of the box, but there are probably a million aftermarket items available that enhance its functionality even further, making it the most “trick-out-able” gun on the market. Not bad for a rifle that first hit the market in 1964. The 10/22 became my go-to rifle pretty quickly. How could I not love it? It’s extremely dependable, accurate and, as I mentioned, you can trick it out as much as you want. But it was my...

Wednesday, August 10, 2016 Kirk, Dold, Radogno stand with leftist groups in support of illegal immigration CHICAGO – U.S. Senator Mark Kirk (R) together with U.S. Congressman Bob Dold (R) and Illinois State Senate Minority Leader Christine Radogno (R) participated in a panel today for illegal immigration liberalization. The panel was hosted by the left-wing Illinois Business Immigration Coalition (IBIC) and FWD.us, an advocacy organization started by wealthy Democrat businessmen Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, and Reid Hoffman. Calling illegal immigration "the American Dream," Kirk argued that that it "unlocks human potential faster and better than any other," and that he...
