Judge Roy Moore and the DC Swamp

dc swampWayne Allyn Root – The corrupt DC swamp has controlled this country for decades. Then along came Donald Trump. He whipped the DC swamp. They desperately tried to fix the election, to guarantee Hillary’s victory. They rigged the Democrat presidential primary for her. Then the mainstream media tried to rig the general election- featuring nothing but negative news about Trump.

The Silicon Valley social media gurus tried to censor anything positive about Trump at Twitter and Facebook. The FBI tried its best to keep Hillary from being indicted- covering up her Uranium One scandal, finding her innocent of violations of national security in her email scandal. Continue reading

The Fiery Words of Steve Bannon

bannonMark Patricks – As many readers may know, former Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore beat former state Attorney General Luther Strange in the Republican primary runoff election on Tuesday, September 26, sending him into the special general election against Democrat Douglas Jones on December 12.

Analysts agree this was a landmark turning point that showed that even independent of President Donald Trump, the Trump-originated populist, economic-nationalist agenda he ran on in 2016 has now eclipsed the president as a political figure. Wrapped in the mantle of this agenda, Moore was able to handily defeat establishment/globalist- aligned Strange in a contest that many observers say has strong portents for the midterm elections of 2018 next year.

Helping to promote the candidacy of Moore was none other than former White House Chief Strategist and current Breitbart News Executive Chairman Steve Bannon, who spoke last Monday night inside a barn 25 minutes from Mobile, Alabama to a rapt crowd. Bannon was joined by UK Independence Party leader Nigel Farage and Duck Dynasty patriarch Phil Robertson.

“Your day of reckoning is coming,” warned Bannon, indicating that the Republican elites who had contributed approximately $30 million to Strange — roughly 10 times the amount that Moore ran on — were on notice that a sea change was taking place within the Republican Party. “Tomorrow’s going to decide who has sovereignty in the United States of America,” Bannon boomed. “Is it the elites in D.C. with their money, or is it the people in Alabama with their muscle?” Bannon said the Republican donor class thought Alabamians could be won over if the former group only spent enough money on 30-second advertisements for Strange.

Bannon Declares War On The Media: “You Are The Opposition; Keep Your Mouth Shut”

Tyler Durden – Not one to mince words, Steve Bannon, Trump’s Chief White House strategist, eviscerated the mainstream media during an interview last night.  Commenting on their coverage of the Trump campaign, Bannon lambasted the disconnect of the media from everyday Americans saying, “They don’t understand this country. They still do not understand why Donald Trump is the president of the United States.”  Per Axios:

bannon“The media should be embarrassed and humiliated and keep its mouth shut and just listen for awhile,” Mr. Bannon said during a telephone call. “I want you to quote this,” Mr. Bannon added. “The media here is the opposition party. They don’t understand this country. They still do not understand why Donald Trump is the president of the United States.”

“The elite media got it dead wrong, 100 percent dead wrong,” Mr. Bannon said of the election, calling it “a humiliating defeat that they will never wash away, that will always be there.”

But that attacks didn’t end there as Bannon went on describe the media as “the opposition party.” Continue reading
