107. Looks Like We're FINALLY Getting Into Some MUCH NEEDED

Mon May 23, 2016, 04:41 PM

May 2016

NUTS & BOLTS of what so many of us here have been trying to say for SO VERY LONG! And to all who DO NOT think this opinion is simply from one source perhaps it's time to finally take the BLINDERS OFF!

Very few news outlets of ANY NOTE will come out and report this because so many of them are in bed with how our system has become hijacked.

What Is Evident is the simple fact that finally a very enormous group of "we the people" who have been trying to say and the reality that the MISTRUST of all that's been going on has actually OPENED THE EYES of too many who have been sleeping for too many years!

The MSM and THIS DEMOCRATIC PARTY decided early on that we SHOULD be ignored and THEY will be just fine "thank you" without the voice of anyone who dared to go against THEIR WISHES!

Their Secret Behind The Curtain machinations is much more prevalent than they want to admit!

We've all heard the statement for far too many years, but there's real truth to one thing... The Revolution WILL NOT BE Televised! It does appear the time is now upon us!
