RNC Never Sanctioned Iowa and New Hampshire Debates That CNN Announced – But It Gets Weirder


Posted originally on the CTH on December 8, 2023 | Sundance 

When CNN announced they were hosting two debates for the GOPe candidates in Iowa and New Hampshire, the supposition was that the RNC had given two debates to the network.  The assumption was because the RNC, and the four remaining first-loser candidates, had previously held an agreement that only RNC sanctioned debates would be permitted, and the candidates would only attend RNC sanctioned debates.

However, it turns out that fake news CNN went rogue in organizing the unsanctioned debates.

There are multiple facets worth considering, and considerable ramifications within the entire construct.

First, the RNC didn’t even know about the plans of CNN.  “The respective debates, set for Jan. 10 in Des Moines and Jan. 21 just outside Manchester, aren’t sanctioned by the RNC, which has organized the first four debates, including Wednesday night’s broadcast in Alabama,” according to Politico.  Additionally, “campaigns have continuously complained about current RNC rules, which say a candidate who participates in an unsanctioned debate is barred from future RNC-approved gatherings. But the RNC’s debate committee is expected to meet Friday to discuss officially removing that rule, according to three people with knowledge of the group’s plans.”

Fake News CNN lived up to their nickname by not even informing the debate venues of their plan prior to yesterday’s announcement.  It’s all very weird and curious:

(New York Times) – […]  With great fanfare this week, CNN announced it would host the network’s first debate of the 2024 presidential campaign, gathering the Republican candidates for a marquee event on Jan. 21 at Saint Anselm College in New Hampshire.

There was only one problem: Saint Anselm had no idea what CNN was talking about.

“We were surprised to be included on a press release by a network about a debate which we had not planned or booked,” Neil Levesque, executive director of the New Hampshire Institute of Politics at Saint Anselm, said in a statement on Friday.

The chairman of New Hampshire’s Republican Party, Chris Ager, went a little further.  “The CNN thing came out and everybody’s like, ‘What the heck?’” Mr. Ager said in an interview. “I’m still scratching my head. And I still haven’t been contacted by CNN at all.” (more)

By midday on Friday, CNN was being battered with questions from Republicans, candidates and other media outlets.  It’s all just seemingly bizarre.

The RNC made an official statement today saying the RNC is no longer hosting debates for the 2024 GOP primary.   This is a little funny considering that Donald Trump never participated, and the candidates who aligned with the RNC debates have lower support numbers now than before the debate series began.

WASHINGTON – The Republican National Committee is pausing its participation in 2024 GOP primary debates, the organization decided Friday.

The RNC’s decision, made by a 16-member internal body, means that any forthcoming debates will be hosted by networks independently of the committee. Two outlets — ABC and CNN — have announced plans to host future debates in Iowa and New Hampshire ahead of early state voting. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis already said he will attend CNN’s planned Iowa debate before next month’s caucuses and ABC’s planned New Hampshire debate.

“We have held four successful debates across the country with the most conservative partners in the history of a Republican primary. We have no RNC debates scheduled in January and any debates currently scheduled are not affiliated with the RNC,” the RNC’s Committee on Presidential Debates said in a statement. “It is now time for Republican primary voters to decide who will be our next President and candidates are free to use any forum or format to communicate to voters as they see fit.” (more)

Essentially, it all boils down to this.  The RNC initially thought they could stop Trump; however, the RNC debate series intended to generate that narrative has failed miserably.  Donald Trump is supported more now than he was when the field of first-loser candidates assembled against him.  Having failed, the RNC backs away slowly.

The CNN announcement, and the gleeful almost immediate acceptance by DeSantis et al, reflects a general desperation.  The effort to stop Trump now falls on the leftist corporate media, who are aligned with the remaining four GOP candidates: DeSantis, Haley, Ramaswamy and Christie.

The agreement and alignment between the remaining candidates, and the corrupt media apparatus, only highlights the fraudulent reason those candidates were assembled in the first place.  The ‘stop Trump’ effort was/is the purpose of their candidacy; actually, winning the GOP nomination was/is irrelevant.   This non-pretending reality exposes the strings on the four remaining marionettes.

It is serendipitous the events rolled out the way they did.  Fraudulent men had plans, but God has a sense of humor.  The implosion of a heavily controlled GOP field is only spotlighted more by the few remaining candidates continuing to compete for first-loser status.

Why would any Republican agree to a CNN debate knowing the nature of the lies and fraud CNN has pushed for the past several years.  Any normally minded Republican candidate would never agree or participate, and therein lies the point.  These are not normally minded politicians; their agenda is something else entirely.

President Donald Trump is unlikely to participate in any debate.  The premise of the debates themselves is silly, and the only reason the candidates are agreeing to more debates is that the corporate and billionaire donors to them are demanding every effort be exhausted.  At this point it is pathetic.

Kevin McCarthy Tells Republican Caucus He Will Not Seek Speakership Again – Here’s My Thoughts


Posted originally on the CTH on October 3, 2023 | Sundance 

According to multiple DC media sources, a quiet effort is underway by members of the professionally republican mindset to kick Matt Gaetz out of the House Republican caucus.  However, the advocates worry they will be primaried by voters in their district, as the population of Republican voters supports Gaetz.  It is a duplicitous dynamic.

Meanwhile, Kevin McCarthy has told his Republican conference that despite prior statements, he will not attempt to become the House Speaker again and will instead retire to his home district in California.

No one is quite sure what comes next; what is clear is that Gaetz has channeled the frustration of the Republican/MAGA base into an actionable result.  This should not come as a surprise to the GOPe, although many of the cloistered clan continue pretending not to understand the dynamic at play.

Allow me to provide some simple clarity.

♦ In 2009 72% of the country, and an even larger percentage of the Republican voters, did not want Obamacare.  The govt takeover of healthcare was along purely ideological grounds.  For the 2010 midterm election, the professional Republican apparatus campaigned on this single issue – repeal Obamacare.  The voters destroyed the Democrats and flipped 67 seats to Republican control.  The professional Republicans wanted the House, frustrated American voters gave it to them.

The Republicans did nothing.

♦ In 2012, the professional Republicans campaigned on retaining the House and asked to begin a process of taking down the Democrat control of the Senate. Remember, it was a 60/40 Senate when the Obamacare boondoggle was begun.  Keep the House, help us take Senate seats, and we will repeal Obamacare and balance the budget.  That was the call of the 2012 professional Republicans.  The voters delivered.  The GOPe kept the house, took 6 seats in the Senate and introduced a wave of fresh Republican blood.

The Republicans did nothing.

♦ In the 2014 midterm election, the professional Republicans campaigned on retaining the House and now flipping the Senate with more GOP seats.  Keep the House, give us the Senate majority, and we will repeal Obamacare and deliver a balanced budget.  The voters again delivered.  Beginning in January 2015, the Republicans controlled the House and the Senate majorities for Obama’s last two years.

The Republicans did nothing.

Worse still, even with professional Republican control of both chambers of congress, President Obama never had to use his veto pen.

♦ In the 2016 election, after the professional Republicans could no longer stop/block candidate Donald Trump, they said if we get the White House, retain the House and retain the Senate, we will repeal Obamacare, return to regular budgetary order, and balance the budget.   Stunningly, against all the odds, the voters yet again delivered.  President Trump won the election; Republicans now held the White House, the House and the Senate – as requested.

The Republicans did nothing.

Worse still, the professional Republicans acted as if they were the dog that just caught the car.  Now they had no excuses, and as a result there was an exodus of retirements announced from the caucus of the professionally Republican to begin in 2018.

Simultaneously, the professional Republicans passively allowed the targeting of Donald Trump by a fully weaponized intelligence apparatus and justice system to commence.  To say the professionally Republican were willfully blind would be polite and generously honest.

In the background the RNC did nothing.  The California ballot harvesting operation of 2018 reflected a complete lack of action by the RNC or CA GOP.  We all well remember how that operation expanded nationwide in 2020, again with the RNC doing nothing.

This is the reality of what took place between the elections of 2010 and 2020.   Every ask of the professionally rRpublican apparatus was delivered by voters. Every ask of the voters in return was ignored.  Effective January 2021, Obamacare still exists, no budget was ever produced, the borders were unsecured, the economy tanked due to Biden policy, energy and printing presses.  Crises, along with insufferable government mandates, amplified and expanded from coast to coast.

The Green New Deal was passed by Republicans and Democrats, and the collapse of the economy came with it.

Clear enough?

Suddenly, as if there was no background of repeated broken promises and a complete failure to deliver on any key request, Kevin McCarthy and his legion of professionally Republican supporters pretend they cannot fathom why the base voters are more than happy to support Matt Gaetz.

WASHINGTON DC – Kevin McCarthy will not seek the speakership again, marking a devastating end to his time in GOP leadership.

The California Republican informed his members behind closed doors Tuesday night that he will forsake another attempt to win the top job after his ouster on Tuesday, according to seven people familiar with the remarks.

His announcement comes amid intense anger over his ouster by Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) and seven other GOP members, who voted with House Democrats to eject him earlier Tuesday. Most Republicans vocally opposed his eviction.

McCarthy told his conference that he would return to California to spend time with his family. In his stead, the House will be run by Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-N.C.), his hand-picked choice as acting speaker. House Republicans have no plans to return to session until next week, scrapping their plans to try to pass party-line spending bills.

The vacancy atop the House is sure to set off a scramble among ambitious Republicans — one that’s likely to get dirty and dragged-out, particularly if McCarthy’s deputies try to ascend. The GOP agrees that the most obvious choices are Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.), House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-Minn.) and Conference Chair Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.), all of whom had publicly backed McCarthy until he bowed out.

“I might have been given a bad break, but I’m still the luckiest man alive,” McCarthy said, according to multiple people in the room when he revealed he would not, as he’d vowed, keep trying to stay speaker.

[…] Republicans are willing to admit one thing: No one knows what the coming days, or weeks, will bring. (read more)

Open Borders, Chaos & Violence


Armstrong Economics Blog/Police State Re-Posted Jul 11, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

I have traded head-to-head with Soros. Many believe that he was also behind getting me imprisoned after his attempt to trade against the Japanese yen in 1999. I defeated and warned all my clients at our March 1999 Tokyo conference how to defeat Soros and the other bankers who were trying to exploit the Japanese for their fiscal year-end on March 31st that year. I was the one who called in when he was targeting the British pound and confirmed that the pound was overvalued and it would crack which made him all his money.

While I cost Soros perhaps $1 billion in Japan, it was the Russian trade I refused to join when asked to invest $10 billion into Hermitage Capital Management. I warned them that Russia would collapse. I warned my clients at our June 1998 conference in London when the London Financial Times published that forecast on the front page of the second section. Soros lost $2 billion on that one. For years, all I have heard is how Soros and the other bankers & hedge fund guys wanted my company shut down.

When you are in the Financial Industry, your phones are recorded to make certain if you said buy, it would not a sell. I had everything on tape and it would have been enough to send a lot of people to prison for a long time and end this crisis that we are now facing where they are using the money to destroy Western Civilization. The government then claimed it was all destroyed in World Trade Center building 7 that every expert says was a controlled demolition. They claimed all my evidence was destroyed in WTC7.

Did they take down that building to save all the firms on Wall Street that were engaged in market manipulation and targeting other countries’ currencies? There were tapes even bragging about paying bribes to Russian officials to recall all the platinum for inventory. Surely, had the truth surfaced, it would have been a serious international crisis, and we would not be in the position we are today with open borders everywhere.

Soros is famous for saying: “The main obstacle to a stable and just world order is the United States.“ If that is not enough for Congress to summon him to uncover this cabal, then how about: “The main enemy of the open society, I believe, is no longer the communist but the capitalist threat.“

George Soros is perhaps one of the three greatest destroyers of Western Civilization with Klaus Schwab and Bill Gates. Soros has long pointed to academic philosophy as his source of inspiration rather than just personal philosophy. George Soros’s philosophy is organized around the idea of the “Open Society,” a term developed and popularized by Karl Popper (1902-1994), a political philosopher of some influence. Effectively, it stands for a one-world government.

Popper was an academic with no actual real-world investigation like Adam Smith – just theory. He was a self-professed critical rationalist, a dedicated opponent of clearly all forms of skepticism, conventionalism, and relativism. He was a committed advocate and staunch defender of the “Open Society”. According to Popper, open societies guarantee and protect rational exchange, while closed societies force people to submit to authority, whether that authority is religious, political, or economic.

Since 1987, George Soros has published 14 books. He has made it very clear that he leans left and his defining intellectual principle is internationalism. Soros’ political goal is to create a political world not defined by national states, but by a global community whose constituents understand that everyone shares an interest in freedom, equality, and prosperity. In his opinion, the creation of such a global open society is the only way to ensure that humanity overcomes the existential challenges of climate change and nuclear proliferation.

I have zero respect for Soros or his son. The EU was formed on this same theory that a one-world government will eliminate war. These people are totally ignorant of the fact that the Roman Empire represented one government, but the myth of the Pax Romana was precisely that because that ONLY applied to international war. There was a civil war when Julius Caesar crossed the Rubicon in 49 BC. Then there was another civil war between Octavian v Mark Antony & Cleopatra in 31BC 18 years later. The next civil war came with the death of Nero in 68AD, 99 years later. The next Civil War came with the assassination of Commodus in 192AD 124 years later. Then with the death of Caracalla in 217AD, the next Civil War unfolded 25 years later. This was followed by Civil Wars in 235, 244, 249, and 253.

Then the Roman Empire split into three parts in 260AD. This eventually led to reforms of Diocletian and the creation of the Tetrarchy in 284AD. That eventually broke down into another Civil War where Constantine seizes control claiming if there is one God, then there should be one emperor by 305AD – another 21 years later. Thus, during a period of 354 years, there were 11 major Civil Wars. So much for this theory of an “open society” creating this sick dream of a one-world government.

There are major cultural differences that cannot be forced into one. Even in the United States, there are four regional cultures. The Midwest is known as the Bible Belt. They clash with California and New York. In France, there is clearly an undertone of cultural discord. Some call this racism, but it is not about the color of someone’s skin, it is always about culture. Soros’ Open Society is the destroyer of Western Civilization. The West will fall and the new financial center of the world will be China. Our Neocons and their hatred for all Russians is an example of how this nonsense of an Open Society is a complete joke.

The Neocons opposed NATO’s invitation to Russia to join. They wanted to rule Russia and completely destroy the country politically. You cannot impose your culture upon another society.

Ukraine has effectively outlawed the Russian language even in the Donbas where ethnic Russians are not allowed to use their own language. Can you imagine what would happen if the USA banned the Spanish language or Canada outlawed French? The Ukrainian provision took effect on January 16, 2023, as stipulated in Article 25 of the law. It requires print media outlets registered in Ukraine to publish exclusively in Ukrainian. Publications in other languages must also be accompanied by a Ukrainian version, equivalent in content, volume, and method of printing.

The state language law requires that Ukrainian be used in most aspects of public life. The law was adopted and signed by former President Petro Poroshenko in 2019, as he was leaving office, with several provisions scheduled to come into force in subsequent years.

The entire Ukrainian War is a land grab, seize the Donbas and Crimea, outlaw Russian, and force their culture upon the indigenous population there and they have gone as far as to even outlaw the Russian orthodox church. They must change their religion to the Ukrainian version of Christianity.

This entire cabal that thinks they can force everyone into a single culture under a one-world government is threatening everything that humanity was all about. We are surrendering our cultures, our freedoms, and all of our dreams to people who think they can reshape the world as they think it should be. Soros said:

If truth be known, I carried some rather potent messianic fantasies with me from childhood which I felt I had to control, otherwise I might end up in the loony bin. But when I made my way in the world I wanted to indulge myself in my fantasies to the extent that I could afford.

Same Magistrate Judge That Authorized FBI Mar-a-Lago Raid Now Limits Trump Public Defense Against Secret FBI Evidence


Posted originally on the CTH on June 19, 2023 | Sundance

Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart is the judge who authorized the fraudulent search warrant used by the DOJ and FBI in the Mar-a-Lago raid against President Trump in August of last year.  Today, Judge Reinhart accepted the position of Special Counsel Jack Smith and puts restrictions on President Trump’s ability to defend himself.

Judge Reinhart has approved the motion filed by Special Counsel Jack Smith to restrict President Trump’s access to the materials the DOJ claims to use against him and block the ability of President Trump to state publicly his defense against the evidence.  The star chamber of the DOJ Lawfare operation is continuing unabated.

(Via ABC NEWS) – A federal judge on Monday approved a protective order sought by special counsel Jack Smith to keep former President Donald Trump from disclosing sensitive information in his classified documents case.

Smith sought the order to ensure that neither Trump nor codefendant Walt Nauta, Trump’s presidential valet, disclose sensitive information obtained during the discovery process, where prosecutors will show the defense what evidence it has amassed during their investigation into Trump’s handling of classified documents since leaving office. (read more)

“The Discovery Materials, along with any information derived therefrom, shall not be disclosed to the public or the news media, or disseminated on any news or social media platform, without prior notice to and consent of the United States or approval of the Court,” Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart said in the order.

“Defendants shall only have access to Discovery Materials under the direct supervision of Defense Counsel or a member of Defense Counsel’s staff. Defendants shall not retain copies of Discovery Material,” the ruling said.

“The materials also include information pertaining to ongoing investigations, the disclosure of which could compromise those investigations and identify uncharged individuals,” their Friday filing said.

Furthermore, the protective order limits Trump’s access to the material, stating that he can only view the discovery materials under the direct supervision of his defense counsel or a member of the counsel’s staff. As demanded by the Special Counsel, Trump is not allowed to retain copies of the discovery material.

The order applies to both Trump and his co-defendant, Walt Nauta, and prohibits them from disseminating any evidence provided to their lawyers during the discovery process. Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart emphasized that the discovery materials, along with any derived information, should not be made public or shared on news or social media platforms without prior consent from the United States or approval from the court.

The DOJ wants to limit public knowledge of the material evidence, not because it would harm national security – but rather because the nature of the evidence itself would highlight to the nation how fraudulent the targeting is. This is the guaranteed DOJ motive, that’s why everything is under seal and even the media will not talk about how they are gaining their leak knowledge. This is LAWFARE narrative engineering at its apex deployment. (more)

Hopefully everyone can see now why I created so much context for the Fourth Branch of Government.  The DOJ is essentially arguing that some unknown administrative state has a superior position to the executive branch of government.

The US DOJ are affirming a belief in the omnipotent Fourth Branch of Government that Barack Obama created.

The Rebellion Is Alive and Thriving


Posted originally on the CTH on June 17, 2023 | Sundance 

We live with a new type of tyranny, where we find ourselves dissidents.  It is not like any previous tyranny. It is not revolutionary in nature. Instead, it operates very scientifically and technocratically by convincing those it tyrannizes to demand their own enslavement, under the guise of comfort.

Prior dissidents were at least dissidents of a tangible, kinetic revolution. We are dissidents of what the willfully tyrannized perceive as their secure position within the rightful order of things. This needs to be factored into how we think about “converting” and “awakening” others amid the ongoing insurgency.

(Via Daily Mail) – A Fox News producer who resigned over a chyron that described Joe Biden as a ‘wannabe dictator’, has broken his silence.

Alexander McCaskill posted a photo of himself on Instagram holding a cardboard box outside the corporation’s New York offices.

He told his followers ‘Today was my last day at Fox’ and described his time there as a ‘wild 10 years’.

McCaskill is thought to have been responsible for the chyron which claimed President Biden was intent on locking up his 2024 rival, Donald Trump on Tuesday.

Fox had it on screen for less than 30 seconds, and then apologized. Dailymail.com has approached Fox News and McCaskill for comment.

Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson claimed the producer had resigned during his new show, now being broadcast on Twitter, on Thursday.

He did not name the producer but The Daily Beast reported that it was McCaskill, who worked with Carlson on Tucker Carlson Tonight for many years.

McCaskill seemed to confirm news of his resignation on his private Instagram account in a lengthy post.

‘Today was my last day at FOX. It was a wild 10 years and it was the best place I’ve ever worked because of the great people I met,’ he wrote.

‘But the time has come. I asked them to let me go, and they finally did. To all my friends there: I will miss you forever.’ (read more)

Well done Mr. McCaskill, well done!

The rebellion is alive and well!

Word of Warning – They Can’t Put Trump in Prison But They Can You for Protesting


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politics Re-Posted Jun 14, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

This will be a day remembered in the history of the entire world. It is the day that the United States indicted and arrested a former president to prevent him from running in the 2024 election. Even Richard Nixon was pardoned because they fear that the civil unrest that might unfold would tear the fabric of the nation apart. Today, the Department of Justice is praying for anything to start to arrest anyone protesting for Trump and call them a domestic terrorist to set an example by striking fear into the heart of people to vote for Biden and shut the hell up. This was the day that the United States begins its decline and fall.

The Arrest of Donald Trump on charges related to the alleged mishandling of classified documents has demonstrated to the world that the United States is no longer the beacon of liberty and justice for all. Besides Biden having classified documents, taking actual bribes, and Hillary setting up a private server on which there were also classified documents so nothing she had on that would be accessible under the Freedom of Information Act because it was private – not government. This has clearly shown that the Biden Administration has weaponized the Department of Justice just like every other corrupt government including Ukraine – Zelensky criminally charge his opponent as well.

Today marks the very first time a former president has ever been arrested by the U.S. government. Trump pleaded not guilty to all charges. MSNBC Chief Legal Correspondent Ari Melber reports was so excited, it probably pissed his pants. No doubt the jubilation is static at CNN, NY Times, Washington Post, etc, etc.  As they said when Rome fell, they too were still laughing.

ANY Republican politician that abandons Trump you now know their true colors. The reason why, the rumor running around is that the DOJ is cheering for they intend to indict Trump supporters on whatever scheme they can make up before the 2024 election. So you will see, Republican throwing Trump under the bus. This is a warning to anyone who thinks they really can drain the swamp. DeSantis – please stay here in Florida. You will NEVER make a difference in that town. The time for declaring the Democracy of Florida is rapidly approaching.

And to those who hate Trump, this has nothing to do with Trump. If the Republican gain power, they will retaliate with the same vengeance and lack of rule of law. We have crossed the Rubicon. As for the RINOS who will not defend the country, the constitution, or even speak up about the weaponizing of the DOJ against political opponents, we now know who you really are and you do not stand by the Constitution. We live in a full-blow authoritarian dictatorship. As even the cartoons use to sign off  – That’s All folks! We now have less than 8 years left. Protesting will do nothing at this point, The Die has been Cast, as Caesar said when crossing the Rubicon. There is absolutely nothing we can do to reverse the trend.

Sheesh, 20 House Republicans Join With Democrats to Stop Censure of the Insufferable Adam Schiff


Posted originally on the CTH on June 15, 2023 | Sundance 

Good grief, who needs Democrat firepower when you can always count on Republicans to shoot themselves to save their enemies.  Twenty House Republicans joined with House Democrats to defeat a censure motion that would have triggered an investigation of the notoriously corrupt Adam Schiff (CA).

Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL), who really does seem to be a great MAGA addition to the House, created a censure motion that she advanced on Tuesday. Luna’s measure would have formally reprimanded Schiff for his conduct while Chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI), where he lied about Trump-Russia intelligence. 

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy blocked Schiff from the HPSCI this year and Luna’s measure would have established an ethics investigation that could have resulted in a $16,000,000 fine if they found he committed the infractions. 

As ridiculous as this sounds, 20 House Republicans came quickly to Adam Schiff’s defense.  Current “Republican” HPSCI Chairman Mike Turner (OH) was one of the GOP members who supported Schiff along with Republican Thomas Massie (KY) who recently endorsed Ron DeSantis.  What a bunch of knuckleheads.

(WASHINGTON DC) – Republicans joined most Democrats in voting to table a measure to censure Rep. Adam Schiff for his previous leadership of the House Intelligence Committee and probes into former President Donald Trump.

The vote: The measure was tabled by a 225-196 vote, with 20 Republicans voting alongside most Democrats. Other Democratic lawmakers were lined up ready to defend the Californian on the floor, but Wednesday’s vote stops the effort from advancing to a full House vote.

Schiff’s response: “It’s a continuation of a downward spiral. There are a number of members here now who are just kind of ugly performance artists. It’s all about getting attention, doesn’t matter whether it’s good attention or bad attention, it’s all about the notoriety,” Schiff told reporters after the vote.

Republicans from districts won by President Joe Biden like Rep. Mike Lawler (R-N.Y.) and the current chair of the House Intelligence Committee, Mike Turner (R-Ohio), were among the Republicans who voted with Democrats to defeat the measure.

Seven lawmakers voted present on the measure, including all five Democratic members of the House Ethics Committee and Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.). Democratic ethics panel members generally vote present on any ethics matters that come before the House. (more)

Big Picture DeSantis Corporate Club Plan and Some Site Note Reminders


Posted originally on the CTH on June 14, 2023 | Sundance 

I don’t know how early you guys want me to start breaking down the 2024 GOPe roadmap (Sea Island meeting stuff).  It’s still early in the entire nomination process, and there’s still some stuff that needs to trigger; but here’s the general Establishment map that is awaiting some detail fillers:

♦ In Iowa the SEA ISLAND DeSantis crew have funded and planted Asa Hutchinson and Mike Pence to camp out.  They are supported by Governor Kim Reynolds.  The goal is to use the Jeff Roe Cruz Crew, and roughly 1,000 paid Never Back Down (NBD) conscripts to do the Astroturf.

♦In New Hampshire they have funded Chris Sununu Inc (his state machine) along with Chris Christie, and the pair will camp out similar to Asa and Mike in Iowa.  Another roughly 500 to 1,000 NBD conscripts.

♦In South Carolina they do not have the Governor (McMaster) but they have funded Nikki Haley and Tim Scott.  Yes, they are doing pairs this time because the singles didn’t work in 2016.  The NBD conscripts will shift from Iowa to South Carolina along with the calendar.  Not as much state party purchase, so look for Haley and Scott to do something like endorse DeSantis during the SC debate.  The Bush machinery is thick in SC.

♦ In Nevada team DeSantis is following the RGA plan and will be going there soon to spend quite a bit of time and make the necessary funding and political promises.  Watch who endorses from there; it’s a caucus system so the RGA will drive the buss.  The NBD conscripts will come in as supportive filler to do the groundwork.

♦In Florida the SEA ISLAND crews are funding and deploying Suarez (launched today) along with never-Trump Jeanette Nuñez partnered with Team Jeb and the party apparatus.  However, the legislative assembly is in a little bit of a flux, as many of the members are not happy with being forced to do the legislative roadmap in order to get DeFunding.  House and Senate not happy with the pressure, and RdS has abandoned them now, so that might be problematic.

♦ Overall, Never Back Down will have around 2,500 paid operatives in the early primary states.  The RGA will be the pressure point for State Gov endorsements, which should be locked up very soon.  The RGA will also play a key role in financing the state party rule changes to keep everything proportional, thereby extending DeSantis longevity.  The RNC will support this very key part of the plan.  The goal is to bleed Trump dry of funds by forcing a lengthy primary.  The SEA ISLAND group has more money than Trump and the small donors.

The dropout sequence to endorse Ron DeSantis will generally follow the calendar as each of the primary contests is fought.  Rolling out of Iowa, Pence and Hutchinson will try to be the boosters for DeSantis rolling into New Hampshire to greet Sununu and Christie.  However, Christie will stay in at least through Florida to belittle Donald Trump.

Depending on the SC outcome, exiting Florida it should be a two-person race, as Trump is sequentially battered by external DC Lawfare and simultaneous 10 against 1 attacks while campaigning.  Murdoch, Bezos and Musk will work together to support the effort, while DC Lawfare will try to keep Trump from campaigning.  This will take place simultaneous to the NBD Pac and RGA going full negative with campaign ads.

That is the basic outline.  I’ll get more specific as the data points assemble and the very granular tripwires become more predictable.  Oh, and relax, none of this is difficult to defeat… lol…  After all, you just read the plan.  They don’t have ‘voters’, they have schemes.

♦Also please, a reminder, with full appreciation to the credo of our assembly, The Truth Has No Agenda, a few points of personal emphasis.

I am currently working on big projects, time consuming stuff.  Things overlooked by those who are communicating the importance of events that took place over the past several years, through today.

I am also working on a project to assist people of influence provide critical and truthful information through a process that is outside the format of tradition (Congress) and outside the general comfort zone of those we entrust – who have a responsibility to inform.   DC Sucks!  I am also trying to help Brady material strategy for ongoing J6 defenses.

Please accept this reminder with the expressed intent, and full appreciation from me, for any courtesy extended by asking permission.  It’s ok, just take it. Anything provided here is yours to take, whole or in part and make it your own, as we work earnestly to deliver greater understanding to a larger audience.

Effective solutions require brutally accurate understanding.

PS. We are inside every facility, every institution, every meeting, every moment of their existence – and we notice everything. We are there when they do not expect, and we melt away before they notice our appearance. We see what they hide, we hear what they whisper, we decipher their codes, and we understand the complexity they create in their effort to conceal. Quit worrying.
