Complete Panic’ at Highest Levels of DNC Over Kim DotCom’s Seth Rich Announcement

Via Billy

Saturday, an anonymous person who works in Washington DC, alleged on 4Chan’s /pol/ subgroup that high-ranking current and former Democratic Party officials are terrified of the Seth Rich murder investigation.

 

This comes after internet entrepreneur and hacker, Kim DotCom, admitted on Saturday that he was part of an operation along with Seth Rich to get stolen DNC emails to Wikileaks.

“Anons, I work in D.C.

I know for certain that the Seth Rich case has scared the shit out of certain high ranking current and former Democratic Party officials.

This is the reason why they have backed away from impeachment talk. They know the smoking gun is out there, and they’re terrified you will find it, because when you do it will bring the entire DNC, along with a couple of very big name politicians.

It appears that certain DNC thugs were not thorough enough when it came time to cover their tracks. Podesta saying he wanted to “make an example of the leaker” is a huge smoking gun.”

A Crash Course In Reactionary Geopolitics

Via Frank

Dated

There’s this idea that goes around in rightist circles occasionally that the United States should balkanize, because there’s too much cultural and racial diversity to fit in a democracy, and also that it’s obvious how American power is currently ruining the world. The idea is that if the U.S. broke up and retreated from its foreign entanglements, everything would ultimately end up better off, as the resultant nations would be more culturally homogeneous and able to focus on their internal affairs.

It’s easy enough to see why someone might think that; diversity actually is incompatible with democracy, and America’s foreign policy actually is ruining the world and ourselves, and a retreat and breakup might seem to offer immediate relief from those problems. So, it’s common enough to see this idea in discussions of the problem of America’s future.

But the balkanization meme, and many other visions for America’s geopolitical future, like going back to something more akin to isolationism, miss major facts about the state of the geopolitical game-board and are thus ultimately unrealistic and dangerous.

So, let’s go over five important basic facts that must inform a smarter approach to coming up with ideas for long-term geopolitical strategy:

Did you ever consider that NATO might invite Russia to join? There are numerous advantages to this, for both Russia and the West.

1 – Removes the fear of Russia invading w. europe, and NATO invading Russia. (It makes me snort when I hear all the people crying Trump is going to start WWIII, when it was Obama who sent troops right to Russia’s doorstep in Poland and the Baltics)

2. Achieves the grand Russian obsession of being taken seriously by the West. I believe Putin sees himself as a latter-day “Peter the Great”, and he would love to go down in history as the leader of the Russian rapprochement with the West.

3. Creates an enormous military to fight the real enemies: Islam, and Chinese expansionism. The Chinese, thanks to their 1-child policy, now have a huge cohort of young men without enough women or jobs to go around. That has historically been a precursor to war. Islam of course is trying to take over the world, but a united West/Russia could easily contain it to MENA.

4. Frees up enormous amounts of brainpower in both the West and Russia spent on weapon design, etc. and lets it tackle problems that people want solved: cancer, energy, clean water, etc.

Karl Rove Names Most Likely Source of White House Leaks

Via Billy

Former George W. Bush Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove said on Friday the White House leaks are originating from career government officials and the lack of consequences is damaging to President Trump.

“Our biggest current leaker is [James] Comey who is obviously going back to his notes, internal memorandum and through a friend or friends leaking them to the press,” Rove said during an interview on the FOX Business Network’s Cavuto: Coast-to-Coast.

Jason Chaffetz: White House leaker should be jailed

Via Billy

House Oversight Committee chairman Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, wants the person who leaked information about President Trump's Oval Office meeting with top Russian diplomats to be jailed.

"I want to see that this person is prosecuted. I think the president makes a very good point. No matter who is in the White House, you cannot have the type of leaking of information, sources, methods, classified information," Chaffetz told ABC's "This Week" on Sunday.

"I don't care who it is — Democrat or Republican — you cannot have that happen. So, not only do you need to wall them off, you probably ought to put handcuffs on them and put them in jail," he said.

"I feel like the Democrats have overplayed their hand" : Trump will win re-election in 2020

 Via Billy

Camille Paglia is much more worried about the media than about the steady string of Trump-related scandals they claim to be uncovering.

In a Tuesday interview with the Washington Examiner, Paglia excoriated the press for its coverage of Trump's decision to fire FBI Director James Comey and his alleged sharing of classified information with Russian officials.

Fresh off a spirited panel with Christina Hoff Sommers hosted by the Independent Women's Forum, the iconic feminist dissident, who serves as a professor of media studies at the University of the Arts, accused journalists of colluding with the Democratic Party in an effort to damage the Trump administration.

"Democrats are doing this in collusion with the media obviously, because they just want to create chaos," she said when asked to comment on the aforementioned stories. "They want to completely obliterate any sense that the Trump administration is making any progress on anything."

Look at all that happened on Friday, the day Trump left for his first international trip;

The rape charges against Julian Assange get dropped

Anthony Weiner a.k.a. Carlos Danger suddenly gives a weepy guilty plea and accepts jail time

Huma "Stand By You Man" Abedin finally files for divorce (better to testify against him??)

Russia starts trolling American media taunting them about Seth Rich

Comey suddenly starts doing a spot on impersonation Mrs. Wiggins from the Carol Burnett show

And finally... Hillary supporting, lifelong Bill Clinton BFF and fellow frequent flyer on the Lolita Express, Alan Dershowitz, starts storming the MSM literally demolishing their carefully orchestrated crusade to oust Trump.

Some very smart people have stated that we will look back and see Trump's firing of Comey as THE watershed. I think they are right. I think Trump has Weiner's life insurance laptop and I think the
floodgates are going to be opened.

May Seth Rich R.I.P and may his story be told.

Professors Pull Off Clever Hoax With ‘Penis Paper’, Expose Liberal Academia as a Sham

Via Billy

Philosopher Peter Boghossian and mathematician James Lindsay perpetrated a hoax intended to expose gender studies as a sham, and they succeeded. The respected professors submitted an absurd article — which blamed penises for global warming — to a respected, peer-reviewed, academic journal — which gullibly printed it. In perpetrating their hoax, the professors said they sought to expose academia as shallow, credulous and painfully politically correct.

Their clever hoax echoes what’s become known as the Sokal Affair, in which physics professor Alain Sokal infamously debunked postmodernism to be intellectual fraud. Two decades ago, Sokal submitted an article peppered with nonsense that flattered the ideological predispositions of the editors of Social Text, an academic journal dedicated to postmodernist thought. He proposed that quantum gravity is a “social and linguistic construct,” and it was published without academic peer review, betraying the field’s lack of intellectual rigor.

Defending the Southern Tradition

 

History is a liberal art and one profits by studying the whole of it, including the lost causes. All of us arc under a mortal temptation to grant the accomplished fact more than we should. That the fall of Rome, the dissolution of medieval Catholicism, the overthrow of Napoleon, the destruction of the Old South were purposeful and just are conclusions that only the tough-minded will question. But such events, ham­mered out by soldiers and politicians, by adventurers and traders, are hardly a guide to the moral world. They are text for the lesson, not the lesson itself, which should go beyond the waywardness of events. Behind all there must be a con­ception which can show the facts in something more than their temporal accidence. In this research, therefore, I have attempted to find those things in the struggle of the South which speak for something more than a particular people in a special situation. The result, it may be allowed, is not pure history, but a picture of values and sentiments coping with the forces of a revolutionary age, and though failing, hardly expiring.

Charting the Liberal Media Leaks: No Valid Sources, Many Invalidated, Possibly Just Made Up Lies

Via Billy

 

Per an analysis of a dozen of the most recent so called ‘leaks’ being reported and repeated by the liberal mainstream media (MSM) involving President Trump, the probability that these ‘leaks’ are just plain lies is very high.

An analysis of the most recent leaks clearly shows that the leaks are being reported by very biased liberal MSM outlets that were adamantly opposed to the election of President Trump.

These ‘leaks’ in all cases are not supported with any names of so-called sources.   Former FBI Director James Comey reportedly made some statements in the ‘leaks’ but to this date he has not corroborated any of the statements he reportedly recently made after his firing.  In addition, all the ‘leaks’ rebutted have been invalidated by known sources.

Precursor to the collapse of the United States: Trump Patriot for Blocking Washington Criminals from Presidency-Warren Pollock

Via Billy

Financial and geopolitical analyst Warren Pollock says that President Donald Trump has done one very big thing since he’s been in office, and that is he “exposed a gigantic ball of criminal corruption” in Washington. Pollock explains, “I think Trump did the American people a tremendous service.

 First of all, he blocked the Republican criminals from taking the Presidency.  Look at Paul Ryan.  He had seven years to work on healthcare, and he’s obviously not interested in doing anything for the American people.  The entire panel of Republicans were just part of this great criminal enterprise.

One of them would get the Presidency, and he would have been just the latest criminal in charge of the country.  The same thing with the Democrats.  We had Trump blocking the Democratic criminals from taking the office of the Presidency.  We don’t live in a republic.  We don’t live in democratic system.  These parties are just part of a large system of organized crime.  They exempt themselves from the very laws they hold us accountable to.  Trump was able to rally the American people and defeat criminals from both sides of the aisle. . . . That’s a major service, and we should be thankful for that.  He’s a real patriot, and he made that sacrifice for us. . . . With Trump, they never want to have that happen again.  That’s why you see this narrowing of alternative media.”

Obama Holdouts In Trump Administration Hiding Hillary Emails For YEARS

Via Billy

Judicial Watch’s President Tom Fitton is astounded: The Trump officials he finds working on Freedom of Information cases he files are still, typically, Obama holdovers.

Those holdovers, he told The Daily Caller News Foundation, are telling Judicial Watch it will be years before it can get former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s emails. “Frankly,” Fitton told TheDCNF, “we should be waiting just a few months for them to get their act together.”

Trump should take the point of view that the government belongs to Americans– and its agencies need to tell the people what they are up to, Fitton said. “If there is no good reason for withholding information, give it to them and give it to them quickly.”

Fate of Obamacare's exchanges could come Monday

Via Billy

A routine court filing may bring about the beginning of the end of Obamacare's insurance exchanges.
On Monday the Trump administration and the House must give a status report to a federal court on an appeal of a lawsuit over insurer subsidies. While the filing seems innocuous, it is an opportunity for Trump to immediately end the insurer subsidies.

If that happens, insurers could raise prices dramatically to cover the lost subsidies or leave the Obamacare exchanges altogether.

Ending an appeal made under the Obama administration is just one of the options. Trump and the House could simply ask for a delay or continue the appeal while they figure out what to do next.

Why the C-130 Is Such a Badass Plane

Via David

 C-130 Hercules flying along the South Vietnamese coast.

Amidst the chaotic withdrawal of American forces from Saigon in April 1975, a young man in the South Vietnamese Air Force (VNAF), Tinh Nguyen, peered out from a bunker at Tan Son Nhut Air Base. The airfield had been under North Vietnamese mortar fire all night and more than 100 aircraft had been destroyed. But there was still one flyable C-130A (the initial production version). During a lull in the firing, it taxied toward the runway navigating around the smoking debris.

This massive plane's rear ramp was still open with a crowd of people huddling on it, and Nguyen knew he had to get to it.

Texas pastors getting 'sermon protection act': Fallout from lesbian mayor's decision to force social agenda in Houston continues

Via REB BILL

One of the subpoenaed pastors was Khanh Huynh of the Vietnamese Baptist Church in Houston, who lived under the communist regime in Vietnam before participating in the great boatlift.

In an interview, he told WND he left Vietnam because of the repression and absence of freedom of religion, speech and association.

Describing the city’s move as an “intimidation tactic,” Huynh told WND that as a pastor and Christian, he must express perspectives on moral issues “without government oversight.”

“We voice our opinion. We’re standing for righteousness on a moral issue. The issue is that we have got to stand up for our belief,” he explained. “We will not back down.”

********************

Three years ago, Christian pastors in Houston were in a pitched battle with their mayor, lesbian Annise Parker, who had forced her “open bathrooms” agenda through the city council. The pastors wanted the city’s residents to vote on the measure, and she was doing everything she could to prevent that.

WND broke the story when she went nuclear on the pastors, ordering the city’s legal staff to issue subpoenas for their sermons to find out what they had been telling their congregations about homosexuality, transgenderism and the issue of men using women’s bathrooms in city facilities.

The resulting nationwide public outrage, including a description of her actions by talk radio icon Rush Limbaugh as “vile,” caused her to back down almost immediately.
