Trump: Lopping Off Hydra Heads
This is the power structure against which others and myself have been in OPEN Dialectical Warfare for a long time, but especially in the last year, when it became again personified in the persons of Globalist Presidential Candidates, Ted Cruz, Jeb Bush, The Bush Crime Family, Marco Rubio, Hillary Clinton and others.
Little did I know when I made this video in March of 2015, that in less than three months the Good Lord would send us a powerful ally in Donald J. Trump.
This is the power structure Trump has defeated to gain the Republican Nomination. It is important that you understand that one head of the beast he conquered was FAKE Evangelical Christianity. (Don't be insulted Evangelicals - I'm not talking about you - Not the likes of Franklin Graham, or Dr Jerry Falwell Jr, or Pastor Robert Jeffress). This fake Evangelicalism was personified in the persons of Glenn Beck and Ted Cruz, and many others. ALL of the right wing ideological Eunuchs who would convince you to vote for "holy rhetoric" coming from the mouth of Luciferian Globalist Puppets.
This power structure is Globalist, Psychotic, Distopian and at its core Anti-Christ and Luciferian. Like the famed Hydra it has many heads, many "appearances" but the same New World Order, One Centralized World Control Mechanism, GOAL. It was healthy March 2015, and had few true (or better effective) enemies except Vladimir Putin and the Russian Orthodox. Now a year later, it is WOUNDED, screaming and flailing about, in some places in seeming death throws. In America it is creating as much chaos as possible before being thrown out of power next January. (Jihadi Immigration, Mass Violent Prisoner Releases, Race War Baiting, Marxist protests trying to create riots near Trump Rallies, Marxist regulations and programs of all sorts, Transgenderism as one example, BLM land grab as another, EPA water grab yet another, etc, not to mention the last minute International Treaties and "deals")
The Beast is not dead and its wound is not mortal. We have many more battles to go before the beast falls. And who knows, we may only cow it into submission for a period of time, and that will have to do. But at least tens of millions in America are coming to recognize what it is, and that makes holding it at bay, easier, as more and more people realize how very important this battle is. HUMANITY DEPENDS UPON HOLDING THE BEAST IN SUBMISSION.

GOP TOTAL COLLAPSE, and MORE.
After Mika Brzezinski on Morning Joe expressed her continued shock at the Trump Revolution and how he has secured the domination against all odds. Joe Scargorough stated the absolute truth of it. You remember that I have said that Trump didn't win the Republican Party, or Inherit it, like the puke Paul Ryan said, but rather that he bitch-slapped it and drug it back to his luxury cave on 5th Avenue. I have also described the Trump Movement as the end of the Republican Establishment, the end of Globalism, the end of the Dictatorship of the NeoCons, etc., etc. Of course the Collapse of the Democrat Party is next and it is already happening.
Well Joe said, "This is complete collapse of the Republican Establishment in Washington D.C. They are all scurrying to him now, scurrying. (Note* scurry is apt, since vermin scurry) I'm not sure how they get there after all they have said about him. They've said a guy is so maniacal you can't trust him with nuclear weapons like Marco Rubio said. It is going to be hard for you to go out and speak on his behalf, which Marco Rubio said he would. Ah . . But it was a collapse of the Republican Establishment, it was a collapse of the Think Tanks, it was a collapse of a lot of those Conservative Magazines, and ANY pretense that they had ANY influence whatsoever over ANYthing that happened in Republican Politics."
What he just described is the loss of the dialectic by the controlling class. If they cannot control what is said in the public square (which has been artificially replace by the CIAmerican Media) they can't control anything. But what is worse, they CONTROLLED the dialectic, COMPLETELY, except for ONE voice with enough CLOUT they could not suppress, ONE voice able to state simple truths like, "If you don't have a border, you don't have a country" "We have to stop them from coming, they are killing us" and that one voice of truth, was mocked, laughed at, ridiculed, parodied, cursed, condemned, hundreds of million spent to destroy it, and BILLIONS of dollars in air time on the CIAmerican Media spent to destroy it, Yet that truthful voice had the power to not just ignore them, but like a ninja warrior USE the energy of all their efforts.
Not only did the Globalist lose control of the Dialectic, they threw every weapon they owned against one VOICE, and LOST. So the one power structure that Trump Collapsed and Joe Scarborough did not mention was his own "establishment" the CIAmerican Media. It was POWERLESS also and even though they are still spewing out propaganda 24/7 TENS of MILLIONS now recognize it for what it is, and it has to a great extent COLLAPSED.
TAKE a further moment and watch this video, from last October (2015) and witness the same Mika Brazeznsky and Joe Scarborough acting as Cultural Marxist psy-opts masters, hoping to HANG Trump via a Politically Correct Meme, trying to take him down. You see, when he called for a halt on all Muslim Immigration they thought they HAD HIM, and this is Mika going in for the KILL SHOT.

The Power of Media Propaganda
Watching an episode of "The Americans" I was reminded of when I became fully aware of the power of the psyops Media and how dangerous it was. I was working long hours, never watching T.V. Radio News in the car was my major exposure to the media.
It was the week following November 20th, 1983. I was already paying close attention to "things" in general, realizing that some power I could not define was battling our Patients and skewing Constitutionally protected rights. (I've written about this so if you are interested I will provide the link) If the Shadow Government had not illegally suppressed our patients, I would be worth much money today, probably Billions, and the world would be a HUGELY different and better place. The need for "centralized" anything would have disappeared and deserts would be turning into paradises. What if desalinization of water and massive pump systems for delivery cost mere thousandths of a cent per gallon? What would this world look like?
Here is the lowly concert tuner for the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, invested in technology that was about to revolutionize the whole world. The Patient Office "Special Master" testing our technology. On the other hand, we were in a period the News Media was calling - The Reagan Recession. This was really the extension of Jimmy Carter's Stagflation. (Young people, you have to read to have a clue.)
Suddenly, my piano tuning customers started to make FATALISTIC statements to me. They were stated in many varieties, but the core of each statement was, "We have decided to make this the best Christmas ever. God only knows if the world will survive. After all, this could be our last Christmas." I clearly remember going from house to house five six houses a day, and people making like Fatalistic statements. I remarked to the stage hands at Symphony Hall, how strange it was that suddenly wealthy people, middle-class people, and working people were sounding like parrots. Ed Evans, a stage hand and my friend said, "Marron, didn't you see that move about nuclear 'nihilation?" He told me about it.
Remember, it was not like today, where everyone can go to see some HULU repeat or promos on Youtube. To this day I have never seen the movie. But what I witnessed was massive media hypnosis, creating the same effect in people of all economic strata. The FEAR MONGERING produced the biggest Christmas sales that were not beat until after George W. Bush told everyone that the best thing they could do to fight "TERROR" was to go shopping. WAIT, are you saying there is a tie between the fear mongering of 1983 and the movie The Day After and 9/11? IN one way there most certainly is.
On the outside of the T.V. controlled (Media) Mindset, in 1983, I realized what I had witnessed, when 99.9 percent of the people who watched the movie The Day After, were CLUELESS. Sadly, to this day, most remain, clueless.
Praise Cheeses, John Hagee Endorses TRUMP.
SHOCK REMINDER for ignorant sheep:
Remember all the Blood Moon BS you all tried to plaster all over my page, all the private messages telling me how ignorant I was because I NAMED your Judaizing Heresy what it was?
Do you remember how I exposed the heresy of John Hagee and that Ugly Judaizing Rabbi, (whatever his name is) who has made a fortune selling you books.
Remember how John Hagee told you that Russia and the Muslims were going to form an alliance to INVADE ISRAEL? You know that is all the Russians think about all day long everyday. "Just how the hell can we manage to invade a worthless pile of sand with no OIL thousands of miles away." IDIOTS.
Russia has been the strongest Military power AGAINST jihad. In fact NOTHING that has actually happened was predicted by these money grubbing Biblical Fundamentalist fear mongers, and NOTHING they predicted has come true. NOT ONE WORD OF IT.
Oh, but they lead you by your FEAR, and lead you into the Camp of the Globalist Puppet and Fellow Cultist Ted Cruz. They are fundamentalist VOTE BUNDLERS for the Globalists. WAKE UP.
So I guess this endorsement of Donald Trump by the Judaizing Heretic and End Times Apocalypse FEAR MONGER, John Hagee, will get Trump the fundamentalist christian (small c) frozen in fear vote. At least the ones who can take a tranquilizer and manage to come out of their bunkers long enough to make it to the polling place.
You know, when you read a headline that says, "John Hagee says God says . . . . " you need to RUN the other way.

Trump and the BULLY PULPIT
BTW: What the Washington Post is describing as "going to be the nastiest presidential election in modern political history" is CODE for the most TRUTHFUL Presidential Campaign EVER.
In this race NO FACT is off the table, NO ONE is being protected. Oh the CIAmerican Media will do all in their power to vilify Trump and Protect Hillary, but they have LOST THEIR MOJO!
Trump has a BULLY Pulpit being the nominee and they cannot squash his voice. This was true from day one of his candidacy since he had carefully built his celebrity. They had to cover him or be exposed as the FAKE and Controlled News Media they are.
Why do you think they call it a BULLY Pulpit? Did you think it had something to do with the English saying, "Oh Bully!" No, it means BULLYING POWER to bypass the FILTER, to speak directly to the people, to go around the SPIN Doctors and pure psy-opts masters. The BULLY Pulpit in the hands of a TRUTH TELLER is a Revolutionary thing in a system of LIES.

Fr Symeon (Butch R.) a Prophet? Maybe so.
The ability to prophesy is merely being able to consume and speak the truth. Since truth is foreign to most people in this culture when it is stated it sounds silly, challenging and/or foreign and crazy. True prayer creates perception of truth and nothing else does. True Prayer can create one "wise as the serpent" fully aware to the influence, plots, plans and conspiracies of those who are possessed of the spirit of the Serpent, that liar Satan. True prayer is not mental ramblings, that in the Western Tradition of "contemplative prayer" is most times little more than soulish (psychic - of the soul) masturbation. Or is it the prideful exercise of prayer that says merely "Lord, if you would simply understand me and fulfill my wishes." No, what I speak of are the liturgical prayers that exist outside of one's ego circle, that truly reach past a person's rational mind and soulish ruminations, that reach to the Creative Life Force of this place, this Creation, who is Jesus Christ the Creative Eternal Word of God, and is HIMSELF Truth who walked among us, and walks, still. This Holy Spirit imbued communion in wise prayer creates wisdom and knowledge.
I am not sharing this article I wrote four years ago to say, "Hey look at me, aren't I smart." No, rather I want to witness perceptions that seem to be anachronistic (out of time) that exposed things that appeared unlikely but were proved in time to be absolutely true. I know there has been a paradigm shift in the consciousness of many Americans, who four years ago were mocking me for simply telling the truth. Many of the same people are now listening, and while they (you) are open, I want to challenge you to understand more.
Here is the [LINK] to the original article "HERE IS WHERE WE ARE" on my blog 2+2=4. Below I have reprinted it, with commentary pointing out some of the events proving what I said then, four years ago to be true and adding links for further reading. Let me suggest that you try something new, and read prayerfully. Pray this simple prayer, "Lord protect me from anything that is false, and guide me to all that is true." Then continue reading.
I often teach that we cannot understand what we have to do to restore Liberty and the Privacy Human Dignity and Natural Law demands, until we can answer these questions accurately. (1) As to our culture, society, politics and governance, where are we?[LINK] (2) How did we get here? (3) can we existentially prove our answers to 1 and 2? Only then can we have a clue as to how to move forward and answer the question (4) What do we do now?
The answer to number Four is multifaceted and has layer upon layer of actions that have to be taken. Some have to be taken individually. Others have to be taken collectively. At present we have one major action that has to be taken collectively. That is, we have to wrest the power of governance away from the Globalist Cabal that has controlled our nation for decades. We have been blessed with a non-puppet, non-globalist running for President (Trump), who is intent to Save our Nation AS a Nation and wrest the power from the Globalist Cartel. The only way he will be capable of that is if we support him overwhelmingly in massive numbers for which political history has no precedent. So far, we are doing exactly that.

Here Is Where We Are.
If I'm wrong, please take the time to correct me.
This (the video below) is one of the best anatomizations of the power structure of the world, and the particular power structure that took over here (past tense) and has been providing us with fake election after fake election. (the fact that the election system has been totally rigged has now become common knowledge, thanks to Donald Trump)
I had gained hope (past tense) in the Summer of 2011, that quite possibly the public was aware enough, because of the Internet, and would by overwhelming support put a person "outside the system" in office as president (that was Herman Cain - a non-politician, outside the controlled system) and that we might save our Republic. With the smashing of Herman Cain and Dr Gingrich's bid for the Republican nomination I see we are headed for yet one more fake election. (The reason I included Newt Gingrich, is that we witnessed the rigged system destroy the possibility of his candidacy.)
The control over the narrative as the primary process started proves that
(1) there is no free press left in this country. (This seemed a radical claim four years ago, but has been proved exponentially by the Trump Campaign)
(2) the establishment is monitoring the Internet, identifying all the independent voices, and isolating them and in some cases eliminating them. (This was written two years before the Snowden Revelations, and I knew that we were all being monitored. And that the Globalist were using that information against us. I wrote this after Andrew Breitbart was assassinated, months before Tom Clancy was assassinated[LINK], Since then there was Michael Hastings assassination and others [LINK].
(3) the public has become so preoccupied with "entertainment" (words with friends, etc) and so disconnected from what is going on around them they are too lazy to try to understand what is really happening but instead become Beckites, Foxites, MSNBCites, O'Reillyites, Limbaughites etc., (The degree to which they were literally hypnotize by these Mind War Agents, and many other Mind War Agents has come to the consciousness of tens of millions of people for the first time, just in the last 10 months. I was writing in detail about this Mind War for years before. Here is the re-write of an article first published in our News Letter, in 1996.[LINK])
(4) The public has become so dumbed down and accepting of the normalcy bias, that when massive, massive evidence of world wide chemical dumping in the atmosphere, documented by millions of photograph, thousands of videos on every continent, from tens of thousands of sources, they yawn, look up at the chemical trails and say, "Ah, it's always been like that." [LINK]"
(5) The public has become incapable of distinguishing between a truth telling person and a master propagandist - the Glen Beck saga proves that. Beck operated as a "diffuser of public outrage" when the Federal government took over major commerce, stomped on small business, Glen Beck rallied the anger, took it to D.C., tapped it down with sentimental platitudes and an Ecumentical Revival Service, and the told us, "violence solves nothing" "it doesn't matter who is the next president" "it is not about politics" "politics won't solve anything" "we just need to be kind to one another." Then he went to work to help the establishment destroy every candidate who was not their candidate in one of the most cynical psyopt demonstrations I've witness in my life time, by first praising and then torpedoing everone who wasn't Mitt Romney.
I would highly suggest that you read this link and listen to Christopher Hedges' speech. It is an eye opener[LINK].

I stood in the circle of my sibling, in 1998 and told them, "It is over." I was speaking about real constitutional liberty. I was speaking about the most egregious supreme court decision, "The State given the right to incarcerate a felon, without trial, without due process, without charge, without warrant, without grand jury, without right of habaes corpus, AFTER he had served his sentence and in the old-real-american jargon had 'payed his debt to society."' The case was a case out of Kansas, (Kansas v Hendricks or Hendricks v Kansas) a rapist who had completed his twenty year sentence for his crime, who the state refused to release from prison. They held him ILLEGALLY while they sought legal right to hold him. He was held under pretense of his "potential" for committing a crime. It is under this precedent that the recent laws have been passed allowing the incarceration of ANYONE, without trial, without due process, without charge, without warrant, without grand jury BEFORE he actually commits a crime, merely upon the accusation that he has the potential to commit a crime. [LINK]. I
told them then and anyone else who would listen, "Remember the saying, 'First they came for the homosexuals and mentally defectives. I didn't say anything because I wasn't a homosexual or a mental defective. Then they came for the Jews and the political dissidents, I didn't say anything, because I wasn't a Jew or a political dissident, then they came for me, I cried out but there were done left to hear me." This process is presently underway and has been underway in the Western "Democracies" since that supreme court decision. (Look at the Muslim Insurgency in Europe, where any citizen who dares to oppose it, is deemed a criminal.)

In the talk below, please make note of who bought "Clear Channel Radio"
and who owns it now. Today it is owned by Bain Capital, Mitt Romney's
company. Take a look at the Salem Media Group and see who owns them. All of the American Media is owned or controlled by the CIA. The "knowledge filter" that this fellow talks about has changed
completely since this speech and the "knowledge filter" has become a
fine tuned propaganda tool controlled by the people who have been
consolidating power since WWII. Please understand, what this fellow
says in the "present active tense" all those "ing" words, are now past
tense. Happened, finnished, ended, done. Folks it is over. Nothing
working inside the "process" has any possibility of changing a thing.
Those who care about this country have to step outside the process,
endure the wrath of the system, organize and take to the streets, IF
there are enough of you left. Understand at the moment there are
so-called "outside the process efforts" lead by prominent people. Be
very careful. Listen to the message very carefully and determine for
yourself whether they are acting as Glen Beck has and IS, as diffuser of
public outrage and anger. Wise Up! [LINK]

Donald Trump, Playboy.
Reince Priebus cannot truly answer why people do not care about Donald Trump's previous "playboy life." He IS right that people don't care and I can explain why.
(1) People understand that money creates license, that undisciplined people kill themselves with their money. WE know about the short life expectancy of lottery winners. Being unprepared for sudden wealth they simple use the power of their money for indulgence and destroy themselves. The quick death of lottery winners is ubiquitous. WE have seen Prince, Michael Jackson and others dead of their dependence on drugs; John Balushi, Momma Cass Eliot, Charley Parker, and hundreds more, done by their excesses. Yet, here is Donald Trump in his late sixties, in a state of health I envy.
(2) We understand that despite great personal discipline, Donald Trump used his wealth and position to enjoy women. It is called sins of youth, and youthful indiscretions.
(3) We understand that despite his period of womanizing, he remained sober, a non-drinker and non-drug user and he had the discipline during this period not to become dissolute, licentious and dissipated.
(4) He wisely did not gamble his health for casual anonymous. sex. I would bet my soul that Hillary Clinton and Barrack Obama cannot make such a claim.
(5) We realize that in middle aged he matured and reformed. And although it is obvious that he enjoys being around beautiful women, they are not the central focus of his life - Like sex is the central focus of Bill Clinton's life.
(6) We have the witness of his wisdom, sanity, stability and decorum, which is reflected in his children, something impossible for a sexual pervert. Sexual perverts always ruin their children, by damaging their ability to have normal trusting adult relationships. Trump's children are accomplished, sober, and impressive people on their own.
(7) We have Donald Trump's own witness of his life, that was lived honestly before the public. When he was "dating" multiple women, he NEVER lied about it. He took Martin Luther's advice, "If you are going to sin, sin boldly, Do not play the hypocrite and liar." In other words, Donald Trump has ALWAYS given an honest portrayal of his character.
(8) Finally and most importantly we know that Donald Trump has been consistently an America FIRST Nationalist for 30 plus years - and this is also a public stance well recorded. We know he hates seeing his country lose, and detests the raping of America by the Globalists and their One World Ideology.
So the fact is we don't care, not because we are "careless people" but because we understand that this election is not between a Saint and a Sinner, as we have all sinned, we were all effected to one degree or another by the insidious 60s and the sexual revolution and the Cultural Marxist Mind War waged by the Kinsey Institute/CIA, waged against ALL of us. They destroyed the institution of Marriage in the U.S. and made Christian morality seem perverted and weird. Even today the CIAmerican Media gives us a STEADY DIET, of the morality for which they now seek to smear Trump.
We understand that this election is between the America FIRST Nationalist Movement, of which Donald Trump has become the IDEAL spokesperson, VS the Globalist and their puppet media and politicians. Nothing the Globalist CIAmerican media can say about Trump, no accusation they can bring from obscure people who are paid or have an axe to grind changes the anatomy of this Counter-Revolution, BECAUSE IT IS BIGGER THAN DONALD TRUMP.

1991 Donald Trump Audio - How Wierd Can You Get?
1991 Audio of someone who is Trump or isn't Trump (it does not matter as there is no "there, there") promoting Trump via a phone conversation:
CONTEXT - I watched Charles Smithgall, a Billionaire, walk into my piano showroom. He drove up in a old Toyota, with a bent fender. I watched him struggle to get out of the car. He was wearing wrinkled clothes, a shirt that had a paint spot on it, and introduced himself as Charlie Smith. I took him to be a retired blue-collar worker, in not so great health. He said he had some "unexpected cash" and wanted to buy his grand daughter a good piano. "New or Used?" He said, "New." I walked him to the little console pianos that were selling for about $2,000 - $3,000. He listened attentively, and then said, "I was hoping to get her a grand piano." I walked him to the cheapest grands, that were selling for about $7,000. He listened attentively and asked, "What is the best quality grand you have?" I said well that would be the Bosendorfers, they are kind of like the Rolls Royce of pianos. He pointed, "Like that one there." (Retail price $84,000.) He said, "I can only do this once, but I would like to get her a really good piano. I'm old (he was 80s) and I really would rather spent the money. I sort of mocked saying, "But, Sir that piano retails for Eighty Four Thousand Dollars." He said, "Well be both know it does not cost you that much. Can I get this piano for $54,000?" Thinking that he was poor (Toyota bent fender - wrinkled clothes - even his hair was not neat) I had noticed that even his hands were dirty. I though, "Well if has suddenly come into some cash and is burning to spend it . . . " I checked my wholesale schedule and low balled the piano to him for 58K. He squealed about the extra 4 grand, and acted like that was going to break him. So, I explained how much work breaking in a new piano was, especially a high quality 7 foot long grand piano. I threw in two years of free tuning and maintenance. He wrote me a check. It was not until hours later when I started to make out bank deposit that I realized the check didn't say Charley Smith, but Charles Smithgall. I laughed out loud, understanding how I have been played by someone who was expert at it. Could I complain? No, I made money, just not as much as I would have liked to.
The point is Billionaires go about under assumed names all the time, and conduct business under assumed names all the time. There is a practical reason for it. Do you think that if I had known I was dealing with Charles Smithgall, the founder and sole owner of the Georgia Pacific Company, and man who owned tens of thousands of acres of the most beautiful countryside in the N. Georgia Mountains and more in the foothills, and many times that all over the Piedmont Plateau Pine Country and a block on Peachtree Street, and a penthouse at Colony Square, and at the time the largest lumber company in the U.S., I would have low-balled a piano sale, and robbed myself of 30K in profit. IT IS CALLED THE ART OF THE DEAL. He was an expert at it. Me, not so much, he outsmarted me.
IF Trump played his own publicist, in the early 90s which is the charge, that says he is a FREAK'N genius and saved himself hundreds of thousands of dollars, while accomplishing the same result. After-all by the middle 1990s EVERYONE knew his name. There is NOTHING weird or STRANGE about it. It is called "cunning intelligence."

S.E.Cupp SMASH
I could not do anything but gloat and smile as a very frustrated S.E. Cupp complained to Wolf Blitzer, yesterday afternoon, that "somehow" Donald Trump had convinced his blind and stupid supporters, that everyone who is not for him, is "somehow part of the establishment."
She named herself, Bill Kristol, Charles Krauthammer, others at the National Review, the Tea Party "founders" etc., etc., etc., as those maligned by Zombie Trump followers. <smile>
Mission Accomplished!
NO S.E. Cupp, Trump did not do that, I DID, along with hundreds of others who are awake and have understood what YOU are and who YOU work for. YOU are a psy-opts Globalist Puppet, who owns no opinions of her own, but spews whatever opinion is assigned you by your Puppet Masters.
I said in August of 2015 that Donald Trump was not running against the list a candidates on the Republican Ticket, and would not be running against Hillary or Bernie or whomever was the Democrat candidate. Instead I said that:
"Donald Trump is threatening a counter-revolution, he is running against the Globalist Elite that own the Republican and Democrat Parties, and own the Media, (Including you S.E. Cupp) that own all the Spin Doctors, like Charles Krauthammer, and Megyn Kelly. He is running against the establishment that controls the six corporations that own the T.V. and Radio Media, all of he major news papers and most of the small so-called independent papers, and 99 percent of the publishing houses; Own and Control the Federal Reserve, and all the Western Central Banks that have held our economy hostage to their New World Order (Globalist) Agenda, robbed us of Constitutional Governance, and relegated our children and Grand Children to debt slavery in a quasi-Marxist Poverty State. This ELECTION is between Donald Trump and the Globalist Criminals that control every aspect of our Government, every NGO that is pushing a Globalist agenda, from the Rockefeller Foundation, and the likes of George Soros, UNESCO to USAID. This is the first time I can say this and it be true, "This is the most important election in our life time." I know it is the most REAL election I have witnessed in my life time and I'm old."
S.E. Cupp, you are a fool. Donald Trump did not teach us this, we learned it through thousands of hours of research and sharing information. When Donald Trump arrived, WE were already educated, awake, informed and READY for him. Donald Trump has given us a voice. Who is us? Who you have called the fringe. We are the revolutionaries who will bring down YOUR lying system. After all the leftist George Orwell was absolutely right when he said, "In a time of universal lies, speaking the truth will be revolutionary."
THE TRUMP MOVEMENT 2016! GOD SPEED!

Hillary Clinton, GUILTY as Big Willy's WING MAN.
Let me tell you a little secret. When Hillary Clinton is called upon to show, "authenticity" as the Psy-opts master Mika Brzezinski suggests in this segment on "Hillary, as Bill Clinton's sexual assault enabler" Hillary is in deep trouble. Hillary Clinton is NEVER authentic, except when she is alone with Huma Abedin.
Huma, Hillary and the Muslim Brotherhood[LINK]
The RAPE Pac - what a magic title. (The Rape Accountability Project for Education PAC, or RAPE PAC.)
Tell me again, all you brain dead Cruz supporters, and Never Trump Useful Idiots of the Globalists how Trump can't beat Hillary. Trust me when I tell you that Bill Clinton's encyclopedia of RAPE victims, RULE.
BILL AND HILLARY CLINTON'S WOMEN VICTIMS TO HIT THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL [LINK]
(MIRROR - TXT)
One of the women who has accused former U.S. President Bill Clinton of sexual assault says she has agreed to work for an anti-Clinton political group being formed by a former advisor to Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.
Kathleen Willey, a former White House volunteer who says Bill Clinton groped her in an Oval Office hallway in 1993 when she came to him tearfully seeking a paid job, said she had agreed to become a paid national spokeswoman for a group being created by Roger Stone.
Stone, a Republican strategist, said the group would become active should Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton's wife, win the Democratic nomination in the 2016 race for the White House. Clinton is currently the front runner.
"This gives me more of an opportunity to get this message out to young voters who weren't even born or don't even remember what happened and to the women who have suffered," Willey told Reuters.
Willey said she will give interviews and speeches and appear in political advertisements to ensure the accusations remain part of the political discourse during the election campaign.
"They're going to be confronted every day, on radio, on television, on billboards," Stone told Reuters, referring to the Clintons. He said he had reached a verbal agreement with Willey but cautioned that the group was still in the planning stages.
Spokesmen for Hillary and Bill Clinton did not respond to questions about Willey.
Stone's political action committee, which can raise virtually unlimited funds to advocate for or against candidates, was originally created last year under the name Women Against Hillary. It was renamed in January as the Rape Accountability Project for Education PAC, or RAPE PAC.
Romans and Pharisees - The Power Structure Vs The Trump Movement
Guess Contributor: Brad Sherman
The Romans...
Certain Republican establishment politicians recently took the "never Trump" position. This position is quite telling. The "my way or no way" position could be attributed to them being spoiled entitled brats who are used to having their way - and that would probably be true. But there is more to this than middle-aged babies throwing tantrums. It suggests that there is a behind-the-scenes axis of power that pulls the strings in both parties - and Donald Trump is not a member of the club.
The establishment elites are absolutely terrified of losing control, not only because of Donald Trump, but because he is the product of an uprising among the people. If Trump is elected and actually follows through on his promises, his popularity among the people would grow exponentially and the establishment's grip on power could disappear. A popular uprising among the people scares the power-addicted establishment perhaps more than anything!
The Pharisees...
And then there are those on the other end of the spectrum who also have the "my way or no way" attitude. I'm talking about those members of the religious right who feel they alone understand God's will and how He works.
When Ted Cruz dropped out of the race, some Christians I know, who had supported Cruz, took a humble position, admitting that God can use anyone. One pastor friend of mine put it this way, "God knows how to make straight licks with crooked sticks." But others took a proud and inflexible position, continuing to divide by spewing venom toward anyone who would dare to accept Trump as the nominee.
So there we have it: Romans and Pharisees. Two thousand years ago, the Romans were a power-addicted class of elites afraid of a popular uprising. The Pharisees were a religious "right" who felt they alone knew the will of God.
What Now?
I don't know how God might use Donald Trump. But I do know that God is not wringing His hands wondering what to do about this Trump situation. And I hope and pray that we Christians will keep our focus on God and continue to pray for a unified grass roots movement among the people rising up to promote God's will God's way. I think they call that revival.
Edward Snowden, American Hero!
If I ever get to meet Edward Snowden, I am going to sincerely thank him for the tremendous BLOW FOR LIBERTY his sacrifice created. Those calling Snowden a Traitor are very STUPID indeed. Or we could say, "Yes, he is a Traitor, after all he betrayed Fascist Omni-Surveillance Police State Government, he most certainly did that. If I held the power to do the same, I would. After all, WE owe NO loyalty to the present criminal system. I would NOT upon penalty of my death betray Constitutional principles, and neither did Edward Snowden. Snowden did NOT betray the American Constitution or the Constitutional Republic, because they had ceased to exist. [LINK] And he did not betray the American People, because he gave them information they have to have, have to learn, hold and understand, if they are ever to restore Constitutional Liberty and Constitutional Privacy that Human Dignity DEMANDS.
“Every time you pick up a phone, dial a number, write an email, travel on a bus carrying a cell phone, swipe a card somewhere, you leave a trace, and the government has decided that it’s a good idea to collect it all, everything, even if you’ve never been suspected of a crime.”
“…it was the creeping realisation that no one else was going to do this. The public had a right to know about these programmes. The public had a right to know that which the government is doing in its name…” —Edward Snowden, German TV interview, January 2014
Try to reconcile that reality with the 4th Amendment of the American Constitution - then stick your head back up your . . . . illusions, and tell me the Republic stands.
"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched and the persons or things to be seized."
HOW DID WE GO FROM THAT TO THIS?
Without Edward Snowden we would not know what a Con Job, "the U.S.A. Freedom Act" was, nor the full extent of the lying depth of Ted Cruz who authored it. Claiming it was to push back the NSA abuses, only INCREASING THEM, EXPONENTIALLY, as Cruz himself admitted in the Republican Primary Debates.
The author of the article I am highlighting below, seems to think that "tripartite government" still exists [LINK]- he is awake enough to realize that Snowden's Revelations are valuable to Liberty, but still too asleep to realize the Constitutional Republic and tripartite power are a fantasy, a fantasy the Shadow Government WANTS you to hold and believe. [LINK]
BY THE WAY, the TIME article linked here and reproduced in "mirror" below is CIA/NSA cover your ass exercise and total propaganda. But the point that Snowden's Revelations would create change is absolutely true. The "shadow government" that is the Globalist Power Structure that controls our government, were very frightened what kind of changes it would produce. Fact is, without Edward Snowden few would be awake. No one would have heard the name Bernie Sanders, and Donald Trump would NOT have run for president. Tens of Millions are now awake and not buying the NSA bullshit "cover story." They are reaching deeper, stepping out of the false consciousness the CIAmerican Media has created IN them, and they have the Globalist and their Puppets at the CIA/NSA and the other alphabet control agencies peeing their paints.

Snowden's actions may have resulted in positive change that proves our tripartite system works
“Every time you pick up a phone, dial a number, write an email, travel on a bus carrying a cell phone, swipe a card somewhere, you leave a trace, and the government has decided that it’s a good idea to collect it all, everything, even if you’ve never been suspected of a crime.”

—Edward Snowden, German TV interview, January 2014
The tripartite nature of American government is on display. Congress is contemplating extending the Patriot Act, allowing it to expire, or reforming it by June 1. A federal court yesterday concluded that the controversial s.215 of the Patriot Act allowing secret meta data gathering of phone records by the government was illegal. The 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals did not specifically rule that the Patriot Act was unconstitutional, though critics of the Act will certainly see the suggestion in this opinion.
In a 97-page unanimous opinion in a case entitled ACLU v. Clapper, et. al., the prestigious 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals in New York City reversed an earlier trial court ruling, and held that s. 215’s bulk telephone data program is subject to judicial review. In the core of this opinion, Judge Gerard Lynch wrote that “the program exceeds the scope of what Congress has authorized.” The opinion discussed the history of the earlier Church Committee hearings about historic abusive surveillance practices of intelligence agencies, and the evolution of the FISA Act (1978) allowing secret ex parte proceedings, and the Patriot Act now under review in Congress.
The court decision dealt with the meta data practices of Verizon performed at the government’s order, and revealed by The Guardian with information leaked by Edward Snowden. The order applies to other service providers, as well, by implication.
The government argued that any complaint about its practices had to be made to the FISA court. The 2nd Circuit concluded that its judicial review was appropriate. And I would note that this court was far more “judicial” than the ex parte, secret hearings conducted by FISA “courts.”
The circuit court ruled that the government’s position—that its standard for collecting metadata conforms with prevailing search and seizure law—was wrong. “Unprecedented and unwarranted” were the words used. The court found that the “sheer volume of information sought is staggering,” and that the amount and nature of the data collected was qualitatively too broad and vague, neither within proper bounds nor limited to data required for fighting the war on terror. The government’s procedures, the court ruled, are “inconsistent with the very concept of an investigation”, lacking specificity, relevance, time limitations.
The court concluded that “to allow the government to collect phone records only because they may be relevant to a possible authorized investigation in the future “is impermissible, irreconcilable with the statute.” Congress can’t be deemed to have approved a program of which many members were unaware, and which was “shrouded in secrecy,” the court added, agreeing with critics that congressional oversight of national security surveillance procedures since 9/11 has been lacking. In an observation critical of the process of congressional oversight in national security matters, the court remarked that suggesting legislative approval of the questionable practices “would ignore reality.”
Its conclusion: S.215 “does not authorize the telephone metadata program.” It refused to deal with claims that S. 215 violated the First and Fourth Amendments, noting that Congress is considering the future of the Patriot Act and may act on these questions imminently. The court deemed it prudent to allow for that debate in Congress which may “profoundly alter the legal landscape.”
Edward Snowden must be smiling today as he remains in his prolonged exile in Russia. All the reforms of the excesses of data surveillance he revealed indicate that his disclosures have had the impact that motivated him. Top UN officials have questioned the practices of member states which violate core privacy rights; reformative laws are pending in Congress; a White House panel has called for 46 reforms of prevailing practices; Congressional oversight of national security procedures has been questioned by prestigious experts in the field. None of this would have happened if Snowden had not committed his audacious act of civil disobedience. His influence has been historic. His answer on German TV to those who argue that Snowden is a traitor: “If I am a traitor, who did I betray? I gave all my information to the American public.” And to the world, as it turned out.
Our country sometimes acts precipitously in times of great provocation, as it did with Japanese-Americans after Pearl Harbor, for example; but in time we make amends for these excesses. Some of our actions after 9/11, extreme rendition, for example, and excessive surveillance techniques now under consideration in Congress and the federal courts, may result in reform of illegal procedures Mr. Snowden exposed. Good signs that our tripartite system works.
