Hillary's cheating caught on camera in Nevada (Coup by corporations and Military Industrial Complex)



This is a coup by the corporations and the Military Industrial Complex.

As you can see clearly, a motion for recount is placed before the chair. A male comes and whispers something to the woman because Hillary's women are just like her who cannot think for themselves and and take orders from men.

In response to the male command, she ignores the motion for a recount and claims that there is a motion to change the rules.

The entire crowd shouts NO but she claims the motion to change the rules has passed!

This is now out in the open. Gadhafi and Saddam Hussein had better Democratic processes than Hillary Clinton.

The Clinton family has subverted the Democratic process and reduced America into a banana republic. This is coup in the making and very shameful.

Hillary supporters, do you consider the Bush family's acts to be criminal?

Hillary supporters, can you please honestly answer if you consider the Bush family's actions to be criminal? With respect to wars? With respect to their economic policies? Would you accept someone who is their ally as your leader?

Bernie #1, Trump #2, Hillary #3 in General Election

Based on the turnout so far, it is clear that Hillary will lose to Trump in the general election but Bernie will beat Trump.

Total Democratic Party turnout: 22,355,331
Total Republican Party turnout: 26,651,719

However, we need to add to the tally of Bernie Sanders the number of independent voters whose votes were suppressed and who would have voted for Bernie in the primaries. Since independents hate both Republicans and Democrats, it is clear that Bernie will carry this bloc. Bernie would have got at least 6 million more votes had every state been an open primary, but let us come up with an estimate on the safe side and consider it to be just 5.5 million. Adding that to the total number of Democratic Party votes, we get the true total.

Total votes for Bernie Sanders in the General Election in states that have voted so far: 27,855,331
Total votes for Donald Trump in the General Election in states voted that have so far: 26,651,719
Total votes for Hillary Clinton in the General Election in states that have voted so far: 22,355,331

Homeland Security Act (Hillary Yea, Bernie No) led to math professor's harassment

By now, all of us have heard about the math professor on a plane who was suspected of being a terrorist for doing math. How did we get here? Is this the America we want?

This is of course due to the Homeland Security Act of 2002. Here is how Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton voted on the bill to pass the act.

H.R. 5005 (107th): House vote to pass Homeland Security Act of 2002

NO Sanders, Bernie VT


Senate vote to pass Homeland Security Act of 2002

YEA Clinton, Hillary NY

Neocon War Hawks Want Hillary Clinton Over Donald Trump. No Surprise—They’ve Always Backed Her

Neocon War Hawks Want Hillary Clinton Over Donald Trump. No Surprise—They’ve Always Backed Her

It’s not just neocons specifically. War hawks of all stripes have been happy to shower praise on Clinton’s foreign policy. In 2011, Lindsey Graham told the Council on Foreign Relations: “This is an outstanding national security team put together by President Obama. I hope he will listen to them. Secretary Clinton is a great choice to be our secretary of state.”

Any time Lindsey Graham, who eagerly supported the Iraq War and has repeatedly called for a war with Iran, endorses your national security team, it should stop and give you pause. Then again, given that Clinton threatened to “totally obliterate” Iran in 2008, perhaps it shouldn’t be surprising.

Exposed! Neocon GOP establishment comes out of the woodwork to support Hillary Clinton!

We always knew there was just one party that was in power. Now it becomes clear with the leaders of the neocon/corporatist wing of the Republican Party supporting Hillary Clinton. Note that this is not popular support but support from a few individuals who support the Military Industrial Complex and corporate welfare.

This is why we need Bernie to win!



Clinton Republicans? That might have been unthinkable not too long ago but now Hillary is campaigning using articles from The Weekly Standard.

“Last night, Donald Trump effectively captured the Republican nomination, successfully bullying his way through a crowded primary field,” the Clinton campaign said in a statement Wednesday entitled: “Conservatives Rebuke Trump As He Captures Republican Nomination.”

The email continues, “However, many prominent activists, journalists and elected officials in his own party have figured out what Hillary Clinton has argued all along: Donald Trump is too big a risk for America. Take a look at the large group of prominent conservatives who are already promising that they’ll never vote for Trump.”


Rep. Scott Rigell : “My love for our country eclipses my loyalty to our party, and to live with a clear conscience I will not support a nominee so lacking in the judgment, temperament and character needed to be our nation’s commander-in-chief. Accordingly, if left with no alternative, I will not support Trump in the general election should he become our Republican nominee.”

Former Romney staffer Garrett Jackson: “Sorry Mr. Chairman, not happening. I have to put country over party. I cannot support a dangerous phony.”

Former top Romney strategist Stuart Stevens: “I think Donald Trump has proven to be unbalanced and uniquely unqualified to be president. I won’t support him… Everyone has to make their own choice. I think Trump is despicable and will prove to be a disaster for the party. I’d urge everyone to continue to oppose him.’”

Rep. Carlos Curbelo : “I have already said I will not support Mr. Trump, that is not a political decision that is a moral decision.’”

Sen. Ben Sasse : “Mr. Trump’s relentless focus is on dividing Americans, and on tearing down rather than building back up this glorious nation. … I can’t support Donald Trump.”

Daily Caller editor Jamie Weinstein: “If it’s Trump-Hillary with no serious third party option in the fall, as hard as it is for me to believe I am actually writing these words, there is just no question: I’d take a Tums and cast my ballot for Hillary — and I suspect so would many other life-long conservatives, whether they are willing to admit it now or not.”


Weekly Standard’s Stephen Hayes: “This is what political division looks like. Trump’s claim to be a unifier is not just specious, it’s absurd. This casual dishonesty is a feature of his campaign. And it’s one of many reasons so many Republicans and conservatives oppose Trump and will never support his candidacy. I’m one of them.”

Former McCain adviser Mark Salter: “The GOP is going to nominate for President a guy who reads the National Enquirer and thinks it’s on the level. I’m with her.”

RedState editor Ben Howe: “#ImWithHer”

Billionaire Bush-backer Mike Fernandez: “If I have a choice — and you can put it in bold — if I have a choice between Trump and Hillary Clinton, I’m choosing Hillary.”

Lifelong Republican, foreign policy expert Max Boot: “ would be vastly preferable to Trump.’”

Former NJ Gov., Christine Todd Whitman on a Clinton/Trump matchup: “I will probably vote for her.”

MA Gov. Charlie Baker: “I’m not going to vote for in November.”

Former RNC Chairman Mel Martinez: “I would not vote for Trump, clearly.”

Former VA Senate candidate, Ken Cuccinelli on Trump: “When you’ve got a guy favorably quoting Mussolini, I don’t care what party you’re in, I’m not voting for that guy.”

Former RNC Chairman Ken Mehlman: “Leaders don’t need to do research to reject Klan support. #NeverTrump”

Former Bush spokesman Tony Fratto: “For the thick-headed: #NeverTrump means never ever ever ever ever under any circumstances as long as I have breath never Trump. Get it?”

Former Eric Cantor communications director, Rory Cooper: “#NeverTrump means…never. The mission of distinguishing him from Republican positions and conservative values remains critical.”

Conservative blogger Erick Erickson: “Reporters writing about the “Stop Trump” effort get it wrong. It’s ‘Never Trump’ as in come hell or high water we will never vote for Trump”

Fox News’ Steve Deace: “Apparently @secupp has a #NeverTrump list to see who keeps their word to the end. You can sign my name in blood.”

Republican strategist Patrick Ruffini: “I will never vote for @realDonaldTrump. Join me and add your name athttp://NeverTrump.com . #NeverTrump”

America Rising co-founder and former Jeb Bush communications director Tim Miller: “Never ever ever Trump. Simple as that.”

Former Rep. J.C. Watts said he’d write-in someone before voting for Mr. Trump in November.

Former Director Of NV and MS GOP Cory Adair: “You’ll come around,” say supporters who just got done saying their candidate doesn’t need me. Nah. I won’t. #NeverTrump

Townhall editor Guy Benson: “Much to my deep chagrin (& astonishment ~8 months ago), for the 1st time in my life, I will not support the GOP nominee for president.”

DailyWire editor Ben Shapiro: “Really? #Nevertrump. Pretty easy.”

Wisconsin conservative radio host Charles Sykes: “I suppose I should clarify: #NeverTrump means I will nevereverunderanycircusmtances vote for @realDonaldTrump”

Editor at RedState, Dan McLaughlin: “For the first time since turning 18, I will not vote for the Republican candidate for President.”

George Mason law professor, Republican David Bernstein: “ “I’d rather Hillary Clinton win. I’d rather (and I never thought I’d say this)… If Trump wins the nomination, I will actively seek to prevent him from becoming president.”

Conservative columnist George Will: “If Trump is nominated, Republicans working to purge him and his manner from public life will reap the considerable satisfaction of preserving the identity of their 162-year-old party while working to see that they forgo only four years of the enjoyment of executive power.”

Redstate contributor Leon Wolf: “I will never vote for Donald Trump. I will not vote for him in the general election against Hillary, and I would not vote for him in a race for dogcatcher. Heck, I would not even vote for him on a reality television show.”

Former Romney adviser Kevin Madden: “I’m prepared to write somebody in so that I have a clear conscience.”

Pete Wehner, former speechwriter for George W. Bush: “I will not vote for Donald Trump if he wins the Republican nomination.”

Bill Kristol, editor of The Weekly Standard: “Donald Trump should not be president of the United States. The Wall Street Journal cannot bring itself to say that. We can say it, we do say it, and we are proud to act accordingly.”

Undersecretary of State under George W. Bush, Eliot Cohen: “I will oppose Trump as nominee. Won’t support & won’t work for him for more reasons than a Tweet can bear.”

Former Jeb Bush digital director Elliott Schwartz: “In case there is confusion about #NeverTrump.”

Doug Heye, Former RNC communications director: “I cannot support Donald Trump were he to win the Republican nomination.”

Former IL GOP Chairman Pat Brady said he’d back a third-party candidate or “just stay home” if Mr. Trump is the nominee.

Washington Examiner’s Phillip Klein: “I have officially de-registered as a Republican.”

Hypeline News’ Kyle Foley: “I’m willing, if need be, to vote Hillary. That’s how strong my disdain is for Trump #NeverTrump”

Republican pollster Kristen Soltis Anderson: “I registered Republican when I was 18 because I thought free markets and liberty were important. Not sure what “Republican” means today.”

How Goldman Sachs invented cap and trade

We should demand an environmental solution for the environmental problem and not end up supporting theft by Wall Street. Theft by Wall Street is no solution.

How Goldman Sachs invented cap and trade

The new carbon-credit market is a virtual repeat of the commodities-market casino that’s been kind to Goldman, except it has one delicious new wrinkle: If the plan goes forward as expected, the rise in prices will be government-mandated. Goldman won’t even have to rig the game. It will be rigged in advance.
