Amid all the chatter and opinions of possible cabinet positions for the incoming Trump administration a few of them seem more likely than others.  General Mattis (w/ waiver) for Defense Secretary, and Mayor Rudy Guiliani for State Secretary are among the more ideologically, purposefully and intuitively aligned.
Another name that seems like a very real possibility, given the Trump immigration proposals and needed enforcement mechanisms, is Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach.
We previously outlined how Kobach appeared to be the central architect of the plan –SEE HERE.
Today, another report surfaces with a rather interesting angle as an AP photographer captured the image of some documents Kobach was carrying into a meeting with Donald Trump and Mike Pence.
(Via Kansas CJOnLine) A written plan for the Department of Homeland Security brought by Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach into his meeting with President-elect Donald Trump spells out a desire to question “high-risk” immigrants over support for Sharia law and the U.S. Constitution. (more…)

A 7.3 magnitude earthquake has been measured off the Japanese coast, approximately 67km northeast of Iwaki. The USGS reported the depth of the quake at 10 km.

The epicenter is near Fukushima, Japan where an earthquake in 2011 caused a nuclear plant to have a meltdown. There are numerous warnings of a pending Tsunami as buoys have detected sea level rise.  Live Stream of incoming Tsunami below: (more…)

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is contemplating a new administration against the backdrop of 8 years of left-wing environmentalism pushing “climate change” as the crow-bar to achieve their agenda items.
More and more Americans are becoming aware the larger climate goals have nothing to do with the environment, and are driven by a group of elites who have worked earnestly to create the pop culture narrative toward “climate change” as a social engineering tool.

The ultimate objective of decades of selling and reinforcing this narrative is a secondary global financial market based on ‘carbon-trading’ to create, essentially, a new financial exchange similar to the futures market on Wall Street.  Once established the exchange can use purchases and sells of ‘carbon credits’ to generate a new global oligarchy.
Their unified goal (for decades) has been to create an entirely new secondary financial market where global elites can control all human activity beneath their ruling dictates.  The essence of pushing the various “climate change” initiatives are simply tools to achieve this objective, nothing more.

This is still just, well, too funny.  The media are carrying a live-feed pool video of the Trump Tower lobby again as the interest on the comings and goings continues.  There are dozens of reporters staged in the lobby and the pool camera is focused on the elevators.
You can watch and listen below:

It would appear the greatest media concern is President-Elect Trump’s ability to communicate directly to the U.S. Electorate without needing the filter of corporate media. This potential new media irrelevance seems to lie at the heart of the MSM current angst.

Interestingly, Donald Trump is meeting with several executives and media personalities today in Trump Tower for an off-the-record discussion:

(Via CNN) […] The meeting will involve Trump, Conway and representatives from ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, and Fox News. (NBC’s cable news channel MSNBC is included in the NBC invitation, Conway noted.)

Some of the top network anchors are traveling or on vacation this week, but others will be in attendance, the Trump aide said. Several executives from the networks will also be there.

Inside the Webster’s dictionary next to the word “insufferable” you’ll find a picture of CNN moonbat Chris Cuomo.  Earlier today Cuomo interviewed Donald Trump’s former campaign manager Kellyanne Conway:

In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “2016 Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the Trump/Pence presidential victory.

This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Despite voter enthusiasm the Trump team should proceed with an abundance of caution.
For over a week the executives and producers within CNN have been running various story lines associated with presidential assassination attempts.  
All of those broadcasts have been accompanied with images of Donald Trump campaigning. 
Example above. Donald Trump discussion with Regan assassination footage. 
The subliminal messaging when added to the preferred MSM narrative of a “dangerous” or “divisive” presidency equal an alarming dog whistle toward traditionally violent leftist minds.
