Saturday Politics : "Freedom is a fragile thing...Government is the people's business." (Ronald Reagan)

Saturday Politics is all about ELECTION DAY MINUS 10. What you need to know now about the Real America vs Hillary's Fake America Progressives. • • • BREAKING NEWS. The FBI has reopened its investigation into Hillary Clinton's email server because of new emails found that seem to be related it. More when sufficient details are available. • • • THE GOOD NEWS OF THE DAY. The leaders of an armed group who seized a national wildlife refuge in rural Oregon were acquitted Thursday in the 41-day standoff that brought new attention to a long-running constitutional dispute over control of federal lands in the US West. A jury found brothers Ammon and Ryan Bundy not guilty of possessing a firearm in a federal facility and conspiring to impede federal workers from their jobs at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, 300 miles southeast of Portland where the trial took place. Five co-defendants also were tried one or both of the charges. At trial, the case was seemingly open-and-shut. There was no dispute about the facts : the group seized the refuge, established armed patrols and vetted those who visited. Assistant US Attorney Ethan Knight said in his closing argument : "Ladies and gentlemen, this case is not a whodunit," arguing that the group decided to take over a federal workplace that didn't belong to them. On technical grounds, the defendants said they never discussed stopping individual workers from accessing their offices but merely wanted the land and the buildings. On emotional grounds, Ammon Bundy and other defendants argued that the takeover was an act of civil disobedience against unconstitutional out-of-control federal government land grabs that have crippled the rural West. Federal prosecutors took two weeks to present their case, finishing with a display of more than 30 guns seized after the standoff. An FBI agent testified that 16,636 live rounds and nearly 1,700 spent casings were found. Bundy testified in his defense, spending three days amplifying his belief that government overreach is destroying Western communities that rely on the land. He said the plan was to take ownership of the refuge by occupying it for a period of time and then turn it over to local officials to use as they saw fit. Bundy also testified that the occupiers carried guns because they would have been arrested immediately otherwise and to protect themselves against possible government attack. Ryan Bundy, who acted his own attorney, did not testify. Despite the acquittal, the Bundys are expected to stand trial in Nevada early next year on charges related to another high-profile standoff with federal agents. Authorities rounding up cattle at their father Cliven Bundy's ranch in 2014 because of unpaid grazing fees released the animals as they faced armed protesters. The brothers are part of a Nevada ranching family embroiled in a lengthy fight over the use of public range, and their occupation drew an international spotlight to a uniquely American West dispute : federal restrictions on ranching, mining and logging to protect the environment. The US government, which controls much [as much as 80% in some states] of the land in the West, says it tries to balance industry, recreation and wildlife concerns to benefit all. Authorities had charged 26 occupiers with conspiracy. Eleven pleaded guilty, and another had the charge dropped. Seven defendants chose not to be tried at this time. Their trial is scheduled to begin February 14. • For the time being, an American jury of their peers has agreed with the Bundys on their position about citizen rights on 'federal' lands and their argument that the federal governmant has unconstitutionally seized far too much Western land. • • • HILLARY HAS NO ANSWER FOR THE FLOOD OF DAMAGING PODESTA EMAILS. Hillary Clinton has failed to effectively contain the damage from the release of thousands of campaign chairman John Podesta’s personal emails, giving new ammunition to Donald Trump. The fallout from the daily releases have raised concerns among Democrats that even if Clinton is elected President, the controversy will follow her into the White House. The Clinton campaign has refused to confirm the authenticity of the emails and has sought to cast doubt on them whenever they are mentioned, noting that the exchanges were stolen by Russian hackers and could have been doctored. They want to deflect attention from the contents of the emails by describing the hacks as an unprecedented interference in the US election by foreign adversaries that threatens the nation’s sovereignty. And they have lashed out at the media for covering what they describe as trivial political minutia rather than the national security implications of the hacked emails. • But, none of it has been enough to halt the daily flow of new emails published by Wikileaks, or the media interest in the contents of the emails. Instead, interest appears to be increasing over the final two weeks before election day -- infighting among Clinton’s top advisors, concerns about Hillary's health and good judgment, Donna Brazile's leak of a question to Hillary before a primary debate with Bernie Sanders, new details about the millions of dollars flowing into the Clinton Foundation and their personal bank accounts -- these are issues that need to be aired before the election. Democratic strategists say that while revelations about Donald Trump have so far distracted from the alleged revelations, Clinton will lose that cover on November 8 if she’s elected President. Democratic strategist Brad Bannon says : “They refuse to acknowledge anything and deal with it. Basically their strategy as far as I can see is whistle past the graveyard and just hope no one pays attention to it. That was easy to do because of Trump, but they won’t be able to do that after November 8. That’s a big part of the Clinton problem, they’re so stubborn dealing with this stuff.” • A newly released email from WikiLeaks shows campaign officials were blindsided by Hillary’s use of a personal server while Secretary of State. Podesta asked campaign manager Robby Mook in an email late on the evening of March 2, 2015 : “Did you have any idea of the depth of this story?” Mook responded after 1 a.m. that night : “Nope. We brought up the existence of emails in reserach [sic] this summer but were told that everything was taken care of.” WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange claimed to have more than 50,000 emails from Podesta’s account when he began releasing them earlier this month -- 35,000 have been made public as of Thursday, leaving 15,000 yet in reserve. Democratic strategist Craig Varoga warns : “Everybody just need to fasten their seatbelts and get ready for a really rocky landing. The next 11 days are going to test everyone’s mettle.” • The email showing Chelsea Clinton pushing to have the family separate itself from Foundation fundraiser Doug Band, and Band's response calling her a “spoiled brat," led to one of the most damaging revelations so far : a memo written by Band in which he defended his work for the family by detailing how his consulting firm solicited donations from corporations and foreign governments for the Clinton Foundation, while also arranging lucrative personal business deals for Bill Clinton. That memo could be a major problem for Clinton if she wins the White House. It has already reinvigorated the Trump campaign as polls show a tightening race. At a Thursday rally in Ohio, Trump said : “The more e-mails Wikileaks releases, the more the lines between the Clinton Foundation, the Secretary of State’s office, and the Clintons’ personal finances are blurred. If the Clintons were willing to play this fast and loose with their criminal enterprise when they weren’t in the White House, just imagine what they will do if they are given the chance to use the Oval Office to pad their pockets.” • One more reason to keep Hillary -- and Bill -- out of the Oval Office. • • • THE THREAT HILLARY POSES TO AMERICA. Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and the Progressive elite that seized control of the federal government in 2008 with the election of Barack Obama represent a visible threat not only to the Constitution's fundamental law but also to the ideal of the American Republic designed to deny legitimate office to illegitimate power, because, as the Founders warned, once illegitimate political power has seized the machine of government, it will always, by disregarding the Constitution, maintain and increase its advantage through unconstitutional rule-making authority, forcing one-party rule -- and ultimately tyranny -- as in Venezuela, and possibly the Philippines, today. Americans would be unwise to think that they are not vulnerable to this historical truth. • A Clinton presidency will expand on the Obama seizure of illegitimate Progressive power for a long enough period so that there will be little hope of recovery. The American Thinker writes : "In one sense, Hillary Clinton represents an image of the stereotypical politician: ambitious, unprincipled, and guided only by political self-interest. But in another more disturbing impression, she embodies all that is indecent and corruptible with human character in pursuit of power. Her dishonesty precedes her like an advertisement. Everyone knows she will lie, for she, like Obama, studies and calculates upon the political advantages that accrue to dishonest rhetoric....She speaks the insider's voice and she is delirious on the insider's intoxication with power. The elitist environment in which she swims is as undemocratic in its nature as despotism itself....That she feels she must lie in every speech and upon all occasions in order to gain their votes is a clear signal of her disrespect for them. It is a disease of our culture that the entire Democratic establishment finds political advantage and comfort in agreeing with her unconcealable disdain for the "stupidity" of millions who wish only to live their lives without the interference of government, and the fact that many of these same Americans, hearing and believing her lies, are willing to vote for her merely reinforces that sentiment. We have reached that point in our political affairs most feared by the Founders of our Republic : the virtual tyranny of one-party rule. Progressive interests in the Democratic Party have discovered the means by which they may perpetuate themselves in power indefinitely, and they have only to win the presidency and the Senate at this time in order to achieve that victory over the American people they have sought after for one hundred years." • • • HILLARY IS NOT FIT TO LEAD AMERICA. Hillary Clinton is guilty of perjury, destroying evidence, ignoring security laws for classified materials, obstruction of justice, and pay-to-play corruption of public service. She hasn't been charged, much less convicted of those crimes, because the Obama-controlled FBI and Department of Justice (DOJ) served as accessories after the fact to cover up her crimes and enable her to avoid prosecution. The FBI simply and pubicly rewrote federal law to "save" Hillary. DOJ tried to be sneakier, but Bill Clinton's meeting with Attorney General Loretta Lynch on the airport tarmac in Phoenix was caught on video. Was the meeting meant to influence Comey? There is no record of the meeting so we cannot be sure. • But, we can be sure that Obama's corrupt administration has led America to a woman -- Hillary Clinton -- who should be in jail but is instead cruising along to the presidency. Obama's Justice Department openly assists Hillary in her cover-ups. A complicit media hides all these facts from the public. Collusion. Criminal acts. Cover-ups. It is the corrupt theft of American constitutional government by Progressive fellow travelers funded by Soros and using the violent political terrorism of Alinsky. IT IS A COUP -- one in which Hillary laughed off questions of a potential indictment and is certain that she will be elected. But, she proved in the Democrat primaries that she can't get the votes honestly -- she had to cheat to beat Bernie Sanders, a 73-year-old socialist who spent his honeymoon in the USSR. The truth is, a large chunk of the Democrat base doesn't like Hillary. So how is she winning -- because that's all we hear, isn't it? -- "Hillary's winning in a landslide, has a monumental lead that can't be overcome. Hillary's leads are insurmountable, there's not enough time for Trump to catch up. Voters abandoning Donald Trump in droves. Hillary's running away with the election." -- You have heard it all, haven't you? But, Hillary is "winning" because the media is her unregistered, unregulated campaign Super-PAC. America's once free press is joined at the hip to the Progressive coup to defeat Donald Trump and impose a sick, evil woman -- a criminal -- as America's new leader. The free press that America has depended on to expose corruption, ensure fair elections, and protect the Rupublic is now part of the corruption. • • • Dear readers, the most frightening possibility is that on election night, mainsteam media will quickly call the race for Hillary even if they know the 'win' is based on fraud. And, Paul Ryan, John McCain, President Obama, and the entire political establishment will tell us we must have a peaceful transition, that we must not question the results under any conditions. And, Hillary & Hacks have already begun paving the way -- setting up the myth of Russian tampering with the US election because Russia wants to see Trump elected. The media and the establishment will join Hillary and Obama in calling what may well be a Trump landslide a "fake election" created by Russian hackers. The Progressives and Democrats now attack Trump for wanting to see fair results before agreeing on the election outcome, but there will be no "peaceful transition of power" if the Progressives lose. There is the real chance of a COUP by the people who have infested the US government at the highest levels, co-opted the national media, and now hold the keys to the most powerful government on Earth. They won't just hand those keys over and go quietly -- they will fight every inch of the way. • How to stop it? Donald Trump. He is the sole reason the Progressive and ruling elites even need to fight, because establishment Republicans are on their side. But Donald Trump is leading a revolution, fighting daily coordinated attacks, slander, and smears. See this week's New York Times sordid 4-page smear attack on Trump if you don't believe me. But, Trump needs -- must have -- a landslide, enough votes to overwhelm the fraud and expose the media's lying. In the primaries, Trump used a boxing analogy, saying he couldn't win by decision because if it was close, they could cheat. He repeated often that he needed a knockout -- and he got it. Now, it's up to the American people to deliver another knockout on November 8. • RONALD REAGAN, when he was inaugurated as Governor of California in January 1967, said : "Freedom is a fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people. Those who have known freedom and then lost it have never known it again. Knowing this, it is hard to explain those who even today would question the people’s capacity for self rule. Will they answer this : If no one among us is capable of governing himself, then who among us has the capacity to govern someone else? Using the temporary authority granted by the people, an increasing number lately have sought to control the means of production as if this could be done without eventually controlling those who produce. Always this is explained as necessary to the people’s welfare. But, “The deterioration of every government begins with the decay of the principle upon which it was founded.” This is true today as it was when it was written in 1748. Government is the people’s business, and every man, woman and child becomes a shareholder with the first penny of tax paid. With all the profound wording of the Constitution, probably the most meaningful words are the first three, “We, the People.” Those of us here today who have been elected to constitutional office of legislative position are in that three word phrase. We are of the people, chosen by them to see that no permanent structure of government ever encroaches on freedom or assumes a power beyond that freely granted by the people."

  1. Friends there is certainly a ‘quasi’ ruling class in America, as there is in every other country on this plant. Ours differ in the global impact that American’s ruling class actions have.

    And this Oligarchy has far reaching tentacles of interest in what happens in elections; especially Presidential elections; most of the time this complex ruling class has control over both sides of these elections. But in the case of the upcoming Trump-Clinton election they firmly control Hillary Clinton, and have NO control over Donald Trump.

    For the most part we do not hear what Donal Trump is telling the throngs of people that show up at his every stop because part of this ruling class is the national media, and it is not in their DNA to report on a Donald Trump type of politician. In fact the last Trump type candidate was Ronald Reagan.

    Who makes up this Oligarchy? Wall Street, the Big 5 Banks, neoconservatives, Global Corporations, that disperse our jobs to China to enrich the “One Percent”,

    I am nearly convinced that this Ruling Class plans on stealing the election from Donald Trump. Because of the difference between what Donald Trump is saying and what the national press is reporting. They tell us that Clinton is so far head that there is no sense in Trump votes voting.

    This is how the theft of the election is supposed to work: The media concentrated in a few corporate hands has gone all out to convince not only Americans but also the world, that Donald Trump is such an unacceptable candidate that he has lost the election before the vote. By controlling the explanation, when the election is stolen those who challenge the stolen election are without a foundation in the media. All media reports will say that it was a runaway victory for Hillary over the misogynist immigrant-hating Trump.

    Americans of all stripes—academics, scholars, journalists, Republicans, Democrats, right-wing, left-wing, US Representatives, US Senators, Presidents, corporate moguls and brainwashed Americans live in a false reality set up by the Ruling Class.


    Trump is correct. The American people must restore the accountability of government to the people.

  2. So the FBI re-opens the case against Hillary and what does she do? Just what we would expect of her …at a press conference she lies again. She said that ONLY republicans received the letter from Director Comey about re-opening the case. Every member of congress, both sides of the House and Senate received the letter.

    EMAILGATE is alive and well thanks to the information found on the phones of Huma Abedin (an active member of the Muslim brotherhood & Hillary’s personal aide) and her mentally sick about to be “X” husband Anthony Weiner (disgraced sex-addioct, x-Congressmen from new York).

    The early Clinton bribe to Joe Boden to keep him out of the race was a promise he’d be her secretary of State – Joe loved that idea. Joe Biden is now saying he would not serve as Hillary’s Secretary of State. He doesn’t want to get mired in her mess. He won’t be the last to step away, bet on it.

    Joe Biden is now saying he would not serve as Hillary’s Secretary of State. He doesn’t want to get mired in her mess. He won’t be the last to step away, bet on it.

    The Progressive Socialist in the Democratic Party seems to think that since Clinton apologized (or developed many new lies to tell) for repeatedly violating the Espionage Act, she should be forgiven. No, she should be behind bars. This could turn this race on its head… it was just the kind of break Trump needed.

    All the rats are running for cover – except all routes lead directly back to Clinton & the Clinton Foundation. Follow the money

  3. The clock is ticking on Hillary Clinton’s rush to get to November 8th (Election Day) before any more news derails her self-appointed innocence over all the fall out coming from her home based server, classified information leakage, betrayal of America, Insider trading violations, misusage of Clinton Foundation monies, bribes, treason, etc., etc. the list would put most people in jail for 7 life times, but not a slippery Clinton.

    The worst may be the eventual involvement of all this EMAILE GATE SCANDAL the involvement of her long time personal aide Huma Abedin (and her Mother and Father) who is a known big time money raiser, supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood and her X-husband former Congressmen Anthony Weiner and their usage of Hillary’s private/ official State department & Clinton Foundation ‘home server’.

    The simple usage of a home server for official government business vs. using a state deprtment.gov address through government servers is a major crime friends.

    She literally has 9 days left on this campaign to stop the “bleeding” and more bad news which is forth coming around this coming Wednesday; and what she doing today … running for cover.

    The national democratic party also has a gigantic problem in the fact who do they replace Hillary’s name with on the already prepared ballots (which it’s too late to re-print ballots or re-program voting machines) for a new candidate?

    Meanwhile the week end poll results are from before the revelation that the FBI was re-opening the case against Hillary, and these numbers are showing Donald Trump pulling ahead.

    Hillary you can fool some the people all of the time – but not a wounded (at your own doing) Director of the FBI a week before the election.

  4. The more e-mails Wikileaks releases, the more the lines between the Clinton Foundation, the Secretary of State’s office, and the Clintons’ personal finances are blurred.

    Stayed tuned to the name Doug Brand as far as the Clinton Foundation is concerned. He’s the architect of the Foundation for Bill Clinton, has been at his side since early in Clinton’s first term as president. Brand even turned down a very lucrative job at Goldman Sachs as the Clinton White House was breaking up at the end of Bill’s second term.

    He is a Clinton “henchman” par excellent. He is to Bill what Huma is to Hillary.

    He knows where the bodies are buried, and has buried a few himself.

    Brand calls the Clinton finances “unorthodox”. Corruption is a much better word.

  5. Since everything that happens lately is related somehow to the lies and deceit of the Obama presidency and Hillary Clinton’s outright treasonous acts with e-mails; can this have ANY connection?

    A West Point graduate Major general John Rossi was found dead at his new home at the Redstone Arsenal 2 days prior to being promoted to Lieutenant General (3 Stars) and command of the Army Space and Missile Defense Command.

    The Army just concluded an investigation into the suicide a few days ago. It took from July 31st to October 29 for the Army to reach a conclusion on an senior General Office’s death that long???

  6. Poll after poll shows that that Hillary Clinton’s trustworthiness is a major issue with the voters. And the recent announcements (on Friday) by the FBI that they are re-opening the investigation into Hillary Clinton will certainly only further inforce those voters’ feelings.

    To put it into ‘poker terms’ … If public opinion and public perception was the dealer in a game – then Hillary Clinton has clearly just been dealt a very, very bad hand.

    Whatever bad language and spoken words that Donald Trump has been accused of in this election it is no longer a ‘game breaker’ as compared to Hillary’s perceived by many criminal images.

    Every day some new and very alarming information comes to light that paints a real Lady Macbeth image of Hillary over the past some 30 years.

    Time is now not an ally of the Clinton’s campaign to lie their way out of everything that is now interconnected that’s been hinted at for a long time.
