Today President Erdogan Presents The "Rabba Salute" – Affirming Ideological Alignment With Muslim Brotherhood…

Political Islam is fraught with coded messaging used to convey intention to Islamic audiences while simultaneously presenting a false face to the West.  When you know what signals to look for you are able to fully understand the ideology behind the message.
When Mohammed Morsi rose to power in Egypt his rise was on the back of the Muslim Brotherhood.  The “Islamist Spring” brought forth a more radical version of Islamic sentiment – The Muslim Brotherhood, or just “Brotherhood”, is the political branch of various hardline Islamic ideologies.

The foundational ideological block under ISIS, al-Qaeda and Al Nusra, is the Muslim Brotherhood.   The Brotherhood has its own signature; and when you know what to look for you can identify its appearance.
Islamist activists, and demonstrators hold four fingers in the air to display a hand sign referring to the Rabaa al-Adawiya mosque, the site of a violent confrontation between Morsi’s followers and the Egyptian army.
Reported deaths from the clash range from hundreds to thousands of Muslim Brotherhood supporters. In Arabic, “Rabba” means “four” or “the fourth;” hence the Rabaa symbol.

Never Trump Campaign Ends Pathetic Effort With Parliamentary Fizzle…

The Never Trump movement was never going anywhere.  The effort was simply silly in large measure because for the past two months no-one else was campaigning; no-one else was vetting a vice-president; no-one else was fundraising for the party… and no-one else was anywhere near the 1,500+ delegates with 14 million votes.
So it didn’t come as a big surprise when the last gasp of the Nevertrumpers, butthurt Cruzbots, ended with a parliamentary dull thud:
Never trump crowd
CLEVELAND – A long-shot, last-ditch attempt by a few Republican delegates to prevent Donald Trump from securing the GOP nomination failed by an overwhelming margin late Thursday night. (more…)

Donald Trump Visits Washington DC – House, Senate and Privately With Ted Cruz…

Candidate Donald Trump went to Washington DC today to meet with House and Senate republicans.  The meeting with GOP politicians from the House of Representatives is generally being characterized as very positive:
Trump congress

[…]  members who have been critical of Trump, like New York Rep. Peter King, had positive reviews of the meeting.
“I would honestly say there was not one negative moment, there was no awkward moment, it was all positive, it was very united,” King told reporters. “And we’ll see where it goes. But today, if today is the way it’s gonna be, it’s gonna be an extremely effective campaign.”  (link)

However the meeting with the Senate chamber was predictably a mixed bag of never Trumpers, U.S. CoC crony consiglieres’ and decepticons.  (more…)

Arizona Senator Jeff Flake: Congress Needs To "Suck Up" TPP and Pass it…

We’ve said it before, and we’ll continue to repeat it, watch how deep and entrenched the financial tentacles of Wall Street Globalists are amid the DC politburo.  There is an entire construct of professional political operatives intent on doing the bidding of the Donohue Clan despite the electorate being opposed to it.

Arizona Senator Jeff Flake (Gang of Eight Immigration usurper, Wall Street Operative and foot soldier for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce) tells Business Insider that congress needs to ignore the voters, defy the will of their constituency, and just pass the Trans-Pacific Trade deal.

[Via Business Insider] The agreement is expected to be put before Congress during the lame-duck session after the election. It’s the critical piece of President Barack Obama’s “pivot to Asia” in foreign policy.

[…]  Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake told Business Insider during a Wednesday interview that Congress is going to have to “suck up” and ratify the agreement because it simply must be done, even in the face of hostile opposition to trade along the campaign trail.

President Obama Signs Paul Ryan Bill and Immediately Suspends 5th Amendment…

Today President Obama signed the PROMESA (Puerto Rico Bailout) bill created by representative Paul Ryan, and with it the immediate suspension of the Fifth Amendment which was supported by a Senate vote yesterday.

Obama ConstitutionPaul Ryan

The Fifth Amendment protects U.S. Citizens from federal seizure of property without compensation.

It applies in this instance to Puerto Rico via the general obligation bonds (property) purchased by municipal bond holders (investing citizens), which were supposed to be repaid, and which congress has now determined can be frozen.

In addition, PROMESA suspends legal redress, by blocking bond holders (property owners) from suing the debtor (PR) to recover their property.   In essence the Fifth Amendment is suspended, and the rights of those whose property has been confiscated to use the courts has been preemptively denied.

FIFTH AMENDMENT – No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

An unelected, entirely appointed, bureaucratic panel of DC political agents/appointees is now in control of the entire process. (more…)

Rasmussen National Poll: Trump 43%, Clinton 39% – Trump Leads Nationally With Independents and Hispanics…

Clinton continues to hold a wide lead among blacks. Trump leads among whites and other minority voters. (link)

The American Electorate Recognizing Some Very Uncomfortable Truths…

Whether you have historically found yourself aligning with the traditional political left (Democrats) or the traditional political right (Republicans), it really matters not.  In the next several months we are about to see some very uncomfortable truths.
To our friends from the “Conservative Right”, we simply share a message: if we thought candidate Donald Trump had already revealed many usurping agents within our collective ranks, we ain’t seen nothing yet.
Example:
us coc tweet trump speech
If we’re willing to bear witness, we are about to see just how deep, entrenched and controlling the Globalist/Wall Street financial tentacles are within the party apparatus.
We shall also witness the professional punditry, specific websites, particular radio voices, voluminous writers, historic authors, etc. who gain financial benefit from supporting these same usurping agents.

Post Brexit Consequence – Rebuked Hillary Clinton Silent, Media Fill Void…

After the Orlando terrorist attack Hillary Clinton went into a modified sub surface communication status called “radio infrequent”.  Tenuous times require those who communicate via poll-tested and political wind-driven soundbites to move carefully amid unfamiliar terrain.
Now, as predicted, after the “anti-globalist” Brexit result, Hillary Clinton goes further into the status of “radio-silent”.   Full Stop (stay quiet, stay deep), and stay away from visibility until the consultants can gauge the best course.  Status = Deep Sweat, Anxious.
Hillary Clinton press we can
The professional media political class, who are still trying to come to grips with the ramifications of a stunning geopolitical push back, are also in a reassessment mode.  The polling releases today from Washington Post/ABC and from Wall Street Journal/NBC also highlight their modified deep-pause position.
