YES WE CAN!

By Ben Garrison

Obama ran under the empty platitude YES WE CAN!

As it turned out, he could do little besides carrying the ball for his Deep State central puppet masters. He certainly wasn’t going to end wars and government corruption. Instead, he expanded them.

The corporate media has repeatedly said Obama’s administration was ‘scandal-free,’ but in reality it was chalk-full of scandals including the IRS targeting the Tea Party scandal, Fast and Furious, Benghazi, the GSA scandal, the EPA scandal, sending Iran billions of dollars in the middle of the night, his prosecution of whistleblowers, the Solyndra scandal, and many more. His media covered for him by downplaying or ignoring his scandals at every turn.

Obama’s biggest scandal is now unfolding. He was well aware of Hillary’s illegal server and colluded with her in an attempt to destroy her popular Republican presidential opponent. What Obama did is far, far worse than the stunt pulled by Nixon, who was forced to leave office due to the Watergate Scandal. Barack Obama most likely authorized American security agencies to spy on the Trump campaign back in 2016 based on nothing other than the fact that he had available power to abuse.

Yes, he could and so he did.

Hillary needed an ‘insurance policy’ in case she lost her presidential bid—an unlikely event in her mind since she thought she had everything carefully rigged. The ‘Russia collusion’ hoax was that insurance policy, so Obama initiated the spying to occur in order to dig up dirt.

Of course, the Deep State propaganda arm, the main stream media, are now claiming Obama did it out of the goodness of his heart. They’ll tell you it wasn’t spying, but mainstream was an attempt to keep Russia from interfering with Trump. They therefore wiretapped Trump and his people out of the kindness of their helpful, partisan hearts.

They were doing Trump a favor and he should be thanking them!

That’s how desperate and ridiculous they’ve become, but Deep State-owned media will continue to protect Hillary and Obama no matter what.

Hillary, Obama and their seditious crew must be held accountable. LOCK THEM UP!

Blue Checkmarks Shower Twitter Love On Anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan

Via The Federalist

For his remarks at rapper Nipsey Hussle’s funeral on Thursday, Louis Farrakhan, the virulent anti-Semite atop the Nation of Islam, earned a warm reception from a number of verified Twitter users.

Renewed controversy swirled around Farrakhan earlier this year, as leaders of the Women’s March were finally pressed to explain their prior associations with him. Although she tried to distance herself from Farrakhan’s anti-Semitism, co-founder Tamika Mallory refused to condemn the Nation of Islam leader in January, even when confronted with a specific list of his repugnant statements by Meghan McCain on “The View.”

I’ve also included several viral tweets from non-verified users, given how many people showed agreement with their sentiment. A handful of journalists and media outlets, including the New York Times, posted quotes from Farrakhan’s speech without even briefly alluding to his history.

Financial Tyranny: America Has Become a Pay-to-Play Exercise in Fascism

By John W. Whitehead

We’re not living the American Dream. We’re in the grip of a financial nightmare.

“We the people” have become the new, permanent underclass in America.

We get taxed on how much we earn, taxed on what we eat, taxed on what we buy, taxed on where we go, taxed on what we drive, and taxed on how much is left of our assets when we die, and yet we have no real say in how the government runs, or how our taxpayer funds are used.

Case in point: Lawmakers across the country have been acting as fronts for corporations, sponsoring more than 10,000 model laws written by corporations, industry groups and think tanks such as the American Legislative Exchange Council.

Make no mistake: this is fascism disguised as legislative expediency.

As a recent investigative report by USA TODAY, The Arizona Republic and the Center for Public Integrity points out, these copycat bills have been used to “override the will of local voters” and advance the agendas of the corporate state. “Disguised as the work of lawmakers, these so-called ‘model’ bills get copied in one state Capitol after another, quietly advancing the agenda of the people who write them.”

In this way, laws that promise to protect the public “actually bolster the corporate bottom line.”

For example, “The Asbestos Transparency Act didn’t help people exposed to asbestos. It was written by corporations who wanted to make it harder for victims to recoup money. The ‘HOPE Act,’ introduced in nine states, was written by a conservative advocacy group to make it more difficult for people to get food stamps.”

Talk about Orwellian.

So we have no real say in how the government runs, or how our taxpayer funds are used, but that doesn’t prevent the government from fleecing us at every turn.

The Untold Facts of John Brennan’s Career of Treachery

Via Lew Rockwell.com

Brennan’s fingerprints are all over the RussiaHoax. Expect major attacks like this one against ‘Mr. Deep State’ himself, the man who epitomizes the out-of-control US security state.

Let’s get something clear from the start. In 1976, in his 20s, John Brennan was a card carrying communist who supported the then Soviet Union, at the height some might say of the Cold War, so much so he voted and assisted Gus Hall, the communist candidate for President against a devout Christian, Jimmy Carter who ultimately won the Presidency.

Yet under four years later, just after the then Soviet Union invaded, just weeks before, Afghanistan and months after the tumultuous Iranian revolution of 1979, which at the time many thought the Soviet Union had a hand in, Brennan was accepted into the CIA as a junior analyst.

At that time, John Brennan should have never got into the CIA, or any Western Intelligence agency given his communist background.

Think on that carefully as you continue to read this.

Also reflect on the fact that Brennan, later in his CIA career, was surprisingly elevated from junior analyst to the prestigious position of Station Chief in Saudi Arabia where he spent a few years.

Its said he was appointed purely for ‘political’ reasons, alleged to have been at the direct request of Bill Clinton and other Democrats not because of a recommendation or merit from within the Agency.
Its further said that the Saudis liked Brennan because he became very quickly ‘their man’ so to speak. Some reports, unsubstantiated, even allege Brennan became a Muslim while there to ingratiate himself with the Saudis.

Important to read is an NBC news article entitled ‘Former Spooks Criticize CIA Director John Brennan for Spying Comments’ by Ken Dilanian dated March 2nd, 2016.

The article contains many revealing facts and evidence, while giving a flavour, of the feelings of many in the CIA who felt that Brennan was totally unsuitable and unqualified to be Director of the Central Intelligence Agency.

Google Marks Pro-Life Film ‘Propaganda,’ Labels Nazi Propaganda ‘History’

A Google search for the new movie, “Unplanned” returned results labeling the film “Drama/Propaganda,” while other films that are actual propaganda material do not receive the same designation. “Unplanned” is the story of a Planned Parenthood director who became pro-life after witnessing an abortion.

A Google search for the 1935 Nazi propaganda film, “The Triumph of the Will,” returns results labeling it “History/War.” The director Leni Riefenstahl was called up by Adolf Hitler himself, commissioning her to make a film of the annual rally of the Nazi party.

I’m Chelsea Handler, and I Suffer from White Privilege

Via PJ Media

Chelsea Handler has a dirty little secret she’ll reveal in an upcoming Netflix special.

It may not be clear to the naked eye, but she’s white and it’s been a big boost to her career. The failed Netflix talker is back with a new book, entitled Life Will Be the Death of Me … And You, Too. And, as part of the book’s promotional push, she’s making the usual talk show rounds.

That means an endless barrage of woke banter met with adoration by her hosts. That tour included The View, where the far-left comic explained to co-host Sunny Hostin why she needed to have a conversation about her own skin color.

Spoiler alert: Hostin called her “brave” for tackling the issue, and Handler didn’t disagree.

No, white people certainly don’t want to talk about it. So I figured start with myself so you know I can hang myself out to dry at my own privilege, at my own reaction to the presidency. Like a spoiled brat, you know, the way so many people were crying and screaming. It was like, well, nothing in your life has ever gone that wrong before? I really had to look and go, no. Yes, my brother died. That was traumatic and awful. I have never been hungry, I’ve never been discriminated against that I knew about. I think As a person with a platform, you have to start thinking about what kind of contribution you’re going to make when you see the things that are going on in this world.

Typically, she uses her platform to fire off inane tweets or pot confessions. Consider the time she said comedians should be arrested for telling racist jokes (despite her own history on the subject). Or when she called for a military coup against President Trump. That’s the same president who drove her to therapy.

As activists go, she’s hardly the creme de la creme. And that’s being kind.
