Dem Wins Kentucky Race by Single Vote (The Messenger-Inquirer, Jenny Sevcik/AP) By Jeffrey Rodack | Friday, 16 November 2018 01:27 PM Democrat Jim Glenn beat Republican D.J. Johnson for a seat in the Kentucky state House by just one vote. Kentucky’s State Board of Elections says Glenn won 6,319 to 6,318, according to the Washington Examiner. "I've had 25 people tell me they are the one person that voted for me," said Glenn, who spent five terms in the legislature before losing in 2016. "Whether it was one vote or one thousand, it's a win. A win's a win no matter how you count it." CBS News reported the Kentucky State Board of Elections will ...
Return of the Fifth Columnists

A fifth columnist is a supporter or secret sympathizer of an enemy nation, and the phrase was coined by Spanish nationalist general Emilio Mola Vidal. Before World War II broke out in 1939, Europe was awash with charges of “the fifth column at work” being bandied about by both appeasers as well as those who wanted to stand up to Hitler. One thing was for sure: Jewish groups were adamant that appeasing Germany was the work of fifth columnists; until the Soviet-Nazi peace agreement was signed, that is. (Twenty million dead afterward, and Europe in ruins—appeasers didn’t look as wrong as previously thought.) Those dreaded two words are hardly used nowadays, although ...

Trump Keeps Up Pressure For Dems to Concede Fla. Races Trump sent out a tweet on Tuesday stating “When will Bill Nelson concede in Florida? The characters running Broward and Palm Beach voting will not be able to 'find' enough votes, too much spotlight on them now!” By Brian Freeman | Tuesday, 13 November 2018 01:24 PM President Donald Trump kept up his pressure for the Democrats to concede the Senate race in Florida, despite an automatic recount triggered by a close margin that is mandated by state law. Trump sent out a tweet on Tuesday stating “When will Bill Nelson concede in Florida? The characters running Broward and Palm Beach voting will not be able to ...

Fla. Gov. Scott Accuses Sen. Nelson of 'Trying to Commit Fraud' By Cathy Burke | Sunday, 11 November 2018 12:53 PM Florida GOP Gov. Rick Scott on Sunday accused his Democratic opponent in the U.S. Senate race, incumbent Sen. Bill Nelson, D-Fla. for "clearly trying to commit fraud to win this election." In an interview on "Fox News Sunday" — as a state-mandated recount is underway — Scott said "Bill Nelson is a sore loser. We won, I've had to win this election twice now." "His lawyer said that a noncitizen should votem – that's one," Scott said, explaining his accusations against Nelson. "Number two, he's ...

Florida Election Recount Underway, Tensions Rise (AP) Sunday, 11 November 2018 07:26 AM The first election workers have begun the enormous task of recounting ballots in Florida's bitterly close races for the U.S. Senate and governor, ramping up their efforts after the secretary of state ordered a review of the two nationally watched contests. Miami-Dade County election officials began feeding ballots into scanning machines Saturday evening. The tedious work in that one South Florida county alone could take days, considering some 800,000 ballots were cast. Multiply that by 67 counties in the nation's third most populous state, and the scope of the task was beginning to sink in ...
Florida’s Stalinist Election Supervisor

One Brenda Snipes, the Broward County election supervisor who was found guilty of destroying ballots two years ago so that Debbie Blabbermouth Schultz could pull out a very shady last-minute election victory by 7,000 votes, is now busy “discovering” thousands of supposedly uncounted votes, days after Governor Scott was declared the winner of the senate election. His margin has gone from more than 70,000 on Wednesday to 15,000 today. The Democrats have sent the “lawyer” who paid for the phony baloney “Russian dossier” to help out. Kind of reminds me of something Stalin supposedly said, that it’s not who votes that counts, but who counts the votes.

Democrats’ midterm win may give neocons foreign policy veto: Journalist

PressTV... If US President Donald Trump continues along some of the policies that he said he would pursue, Republican neoconsertives in the Senate might join Democrats and remove him, American journalist Don Debar says. The Republicans lost the House of Representatives to the Democrats in the November 6 midterm elections. The Republicans, however, consolidated their grip on the Senate. In an interview with Press TV on Thursday, Debar expressed concerns that the outcome of the midterms might have decreased the possibility of the United States having a detente with Russia and China and peace agreements with North Korea and Iran. He said that the Democratic control of the House means Trump ...
Democrats Emerging As Post-American Party

America is so divided, even the political clichés don’t work anymore. In professional wrestling, it’s called a “cheap pop”—an unnecessary reference to the home town designed to get the audience to give an automatic cheer. Politicians do the same by praising the history of whatever state or community they are in. But in post-America, the quickest path to popularity among the Left is to bash your own state—and receive the praise of the Main Stream Media for your courage. The latest Democrat campaign caught trashing its own state: Florida gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum. James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas captured one Omar Smith, “who ...

Hawley defeated Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.), who was viewed as one of the most vulnerable incumbents up for reelection after President Trump won her state in 2016 by roughly 18 points. The successful flip of the Missouri seat from Democratic control is a boon for Republicans, who viewed the state, as well as Indiana and North Dakota, as ...

Well done, Quisling. Couldn't run your own caucus with the Speaker's gavel and a 23 seat lead. Couldn't kill Obamacare even after 8 attempts, couldn't fund the border wall, couldn't help bloating the budget, growing the deficit, and couldn't stop f**king over the Republican base or backstabbing the President at every opportunity, then bolted for the door when the chickens were going to come home to roost. (Joined betimes by a basket of fellow GOPe RINOs who could smell the change in the political wind.) This is the one man in America who should be hounded and cat-called and annoyed at every restaurant he dines at forever, until he dies, or gets ahold of a gun and ...

Good evening, I’m still reporting on: Red Wave is Coming Tomorrow, 2434 Synopsis: Well, the long-awaited report from my favorite poll-analyzer, Dr. Clifford Thies of the Shenandoah University School of Business in Winchester, VA is in, and Dr. Thies supports with data, our theory on the bias and skews of all the MSM pollsters which we first saw developing in the 2016 presidential election. The bottom line is that Dr. Thies sees the same basic setup this election as the 2016 election. Republicans will generally outperform the polling. That means Republicans will win almost all toss-up elections, and most of those where the Dems hold a slight lead in the polls.
Whatever Happened to the Russia-gate ‘Scandal’?

It fizzled, bigtime After all the screaming headlines and hysterical talk of “treason,” the Russia-gate hoax was almost entirely absent from the midterms. One would think that the other party being in the hands of a ruthless foreign dictator who has it in for America would be a major campaign issue – that is, if the Democrats actually believed their own propaganda. However, we’ve seen neither hide nor hair of Putin in all those campaign ads, or at least hardly a glance: that’s because Russia-gate has always been a fraud, a setup, and really a criminal conspiracy to take down a sitting US President on the basis of a gigantic lie. As the promulgators of that lie ...

Obama, at Indiana rally, says character of country is at stake in midterms Frank Miles 5 hrs ago Former President Barack Obama spoke Sunday in Gary, Indiana, ahead of a second rally in Chicago, delivering a closing argument for Democrats aiming to put a firm check on President Trump’s policies in Tuesday’s midterm elections. Speaking on behalf of Sen. Joe Donnelly, D-Ind., who faces a stiff challenge from Republican businessman Mike Braun, Obama said the vote on Tuesday is for the character of the nation. “America is at a crossroads,” Obama said in the Midwestern city just across the state line from Chicago. “In two days, you get to vote in what I believe ...
Watchdog knocks State over seizures of Americans' passports

State Department officials failed to follow proper procedures as they seized passports from dozens of U.S. citizens in Yemen, leaving them stranded as the country descended into violence, a federal watchdog found. The passport grabs, which took place under the Obama administration between 2012 and 2014, have led to lawsuits and other complaints, and exposed a lack of organization and clarity in how the department handles alleged passport fraud. In a report released Friday, the State Department’s inspector general’s office said it was unable to even determine how many passports were taken by the U.S. Embassy in Sana’a during the time period in question because the ...
Q-Anon Silent For 22 Days: Are We Seeing The Calm Before The Storm?

In many ways, the current situation we are experiencing in the world is anything but calm. We are still reeling from the contentious Kavanaugh nomination, the alleged killing and dismemberment of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, fake pipe bombs coming out of the ying-yang courtesy of logistical genius Cesar Sayoc, the mass shooting in a Pittsburgh synagogue, and a horde of well-fed, well-clothed ‘refugees’ aiming to penetrate the US border. Certainly the Deep State is pulling out all the stops to create narrative-driven headlines that demonize Donald Trump and try to somehow prevent their own demise. So where is the calm? Well, one could say that Donald Trump appears to be ...
Bolsonaro: a Monster Engineered by Our Media

With Jair Bolsonaro’s victory in Brazil’s presidential election at the weekend, the doom-mongers among western elites are out in force once again. His success, like Donald Trump’s, has confirmed a long-held prejudice: that the people cannot be trusted; that, when empowered, they behave like a mob driven by primitive urges; that the unwashed masses now threaten to bring down the carefully constructed walls of civilisation. The guardians of the status quo refused to learn the lesson of Trump’s election, and so it will be with Bolsonaro. Rather than engaging the intellectual faculties they claim as their exclusive preserve, western “analysts” and ...

Democrats are counting on Generation Z, many of whom recently gained the right to vote, to help turn Congress blue in the midterm elections. But 50 cents may be all it takes to keep these post-Millennials from exercising their civic duty. On Tuesday, a Fairfax County, Virginia official said they are noticing a disturbing trend: young people failing to mail in their absentee ballots because they don't know how to get a stamp. Lisa Connors, of the Fairfax County Office of Public Affairs, ran a focus group this summer comprised of colleges students interning in various county departments. "One thing that came up, which I had heard from my own kids but I thought they were just ...

The sad reality is that last week’s Pittsburgh synagogue massacre is only the latest float in the long-running parade of ghastly homicidal spectacles rolling across this land and will be just as forgotten in one week as was last year’s Las Vegas Mandalay Bay slaughter of 58 concert-goers plus over 800 wounded and injured, a US record for non-military acts of violence. The Pittsburgh shootings elbowed the mass pipe bomber, Cesar Sayoc, out of the news cycle — but then Sayoc didn’t manage to actually hurt any of the high-profile figures he targeted with his mailings. What I wonder — and what the news media has so far failed to report — is just how incompetent a ...

Red-State Blues: Senators Running Behind Enemy Lines Randy Yeip 3 hrs ago © Michael Thomas/Getty Images; Jeff Roberson/Associated Press Since the start of the election campaign, Democrats’ hopes of winning control of the U.S. Senate have hinged on completing a tricky double play: aiming to flip some Republican seats in battleground states like Arizona and Nevada while simultaneously holding on to states that are otherwise GOP strongholds. And though Republicans face unexpectedly strong challenges in places like Tennessee and Texas, Democratic efforts may be stymied by losses elsewhere, with polls pointing to an increasingly precarious position for several incumbents in ...

The media has been silent about Maria Butina because the case against her is falling apart. Two recent stories about Russians have demonstrated how the news is selected and manipulated in the United States. The first is about Maria Butina, who apparently sought to overthrow American democracy, such as it is, by obtaining a life membership in the National Rifle Association. Maria, a graduate student at American University, is now in detention in a federal prison, having been charged with collusion and failure to register as an agent of the Russian Federation. She has been in prison since July, for most of the time in solitary confinement, and has not been granted bail because, as a ...

(AP Photo/Andrew Harnik) When Donald Trump offered to pay $10,000 from his personal charitable foundation for a six-foot oil portrait of himself, the future president only meant to "get the bidding started" during a 2014 auction at his Mar-a-Lago resort, his lawyer told a New York judge. “No one else bid,” attorney Alan Futerfas said in a packed Manhattan courtroom on Thursday, so “he’s stuck with the painting."

We provide everything including the people, the materials and even the ideas.” But according to a lawsuit filed by a Czech investor, Crowds on Demand also takes on more sordid assignments. Zdenek Bakala claims the company has been used to run an extortion campaign against him.
