• Yesterday Thad Cochran campaign PAC’s admitted to false filings of data to Federal Election Commission.  (link) “mistakes have been made“…
• Yesterday the National Republican Senatorial Committee was busted as the financial source for the race-baiting ads used by Cochran Campaign. (link)
• Earlier today Thad Cochran’s campaign manager stepped down. (link)
• Earlier today Thad Cochran’s campaign hired legal counsel from Haley Barbours law firm. Presumably to isolate themselves against Haley Barbour being called to testify in ongoing investigations.  (link)

Now THIS:

(Via Breitbart)  National conservative election integrity organization True The Vote has asked a federal judge to issue a restraining order against the Mississippi Republican Party, alleging that the state GOP may be engaged in the destruction of evidence of alleged voter fraud from the June 24 GOP primary runoff.
“Defendant county commissioners have continued to violate federal law by preventing access to election records. Now, we think we know why,” True The Vote founder Catherine Engelbrecht said in a statement. “If the affidavits we now have regarding the destruction of election documents and other similarly stunning findings are true, then no Mississippian, no American, can trust the results of this election.”

It’s a precarious position Senator Cruz is staking out.   Ultimately he’s going to have to make a decision about staying with the NRSC, as the evidence of NRSC FEC fraud is brought to sunlight by the Mississippi election.
So far he’s only vocalizing his animosity about the NRSC using race-baiting tactics to attack another Republican, Chris McDaniel.  However, if the vote-buying fraud is tied to the NRSC  –which evidence is clearly outlining– then Ted Cruz will either have to cut bait, or stay forever hooked to the fraud.
(Via The Hill) GOP hopes of corralling Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) during the 2014 primary season are officially dead.
The defiant Republican’s brutal criticism of Sen. Thad Cochran’s (R-Miss.) reelection campaign on Tuesday — and the involvement of a group he is technically a vice chairman of, the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) — is just the latest example of the Tea Party hero refusing to play nice.
That brazen approach has exacerbated already fragile relations with establishment Republicans, who believe the freshman senator is intentionally undercutting them for no reason other than furthering his own political career.
Meanwhile, his conservative base is rejoicing that he’s refusing to be cowed. (more…)

It would be more than important to listen to this audio/video interview with Mark Levin before dropping below the fold:

You’ll note that Senator Ted Cruz seems to express disgust and outrage against the tactics deployed by what he calls the “DC Machine”. Cruz states that their conduct in the Mississippi runoff was “incredibly disappointing” etc.
However, we now know -from specific documentation provided by internal research into the activity around the Mississippi campaign- that the National Republican Senatorial Campaign, the NRSC, was the financier for the attack ads against Chris McDaniel.
So who is the “DC Machine”, this “leadership of the NRSC”, that Senator Ted Cruz is so “incredibly disappointed” in ? (more…)

An attorney for senate candidate Chris McDaniel gave a presser today to update on status:

WASHINGTON DC – A member of Congress used to have to specifically report the details if they traveled on someone else’s dime. As of last week, that rule was lifted with no public announcement. National Journal reports:

The move, made behind closed doors and without a public announcement by the House Ethics Committee, reverses more than three decades of precedent. Gifts of free travel to lawmakers have appeared on the yearly financial form dating back its creation in the late 1970s, after the Watergate scandal. National Journal uncovered the deleted disclosure requirement when analyzing the most recent batch of yearly filings.  (link)

For a group of officials that considers an adjustment to their burrito order worthy of a press release and a television appearance, that this change was made literally behind closed doors tells us everything we need to know about it. Members of both parties reached across the aisle and kept their mouths shut about it. (more…)

Many people are wondering why Republicans are not doing more to stop the Illegal Alien influx, and more specifically not stop President Obama’s approach.   We can answer that question…..

….But before we do everyone needs to stop being a co-dependent and accept what is in front of us.

This guy, Tom Donohue, is at the root of the matter.
Tom Donohue is the President of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the CoC.
The CoC wants amnesty legislation, the CoC is also the primary source of campaign funding for the following Republicans:

Mitch McConnell (R-KY),  Rob Portman (R-OH), Bob Corker (R-TN),  Roger Wicker (R-MS),  John Barrasso (R-WY), Roy Blunt (R-MO), John Cornyn (R-TX), Dean Heller (R-NV),  Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), John Thune (R-SD), Lamar Alexander (R-TN), Saxby Chambliss (R-GA),  Dan Coats (R-IN), Mike Crapo (R-ID), Mike Enzi (R-WY), Chuck Grassley (R-IA), Orrin Hatch (R-UT), Mark Kirk (R-IL), Jerry Moran (R-KS),  Mike Johanns (R-NE), Kelly Ayotte (R-NH), John Boozman (R-AR), Richard Burr (R-NC),  Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Jim Inhofe (R-OK), Johnny Isakson (R-GA), John McCain (R-AZ), Jim Risch (R-ID), Pat Roberts (R-KS), Richard Shelby (R-AL),  Deb Fischer (R-NE) and John Hoeven (R-ND).

For those keeping score that’s 32, yes thirty two, of the current GOP Senators. (more…)

(Via Legal Insurrection) Pat Roberts’ absence from Kansas, and questionable residency, has been an important issue in the Kansas Republican Primary, which is August 5.
The issue has been hammered by Dr. Milton Wolf (whom we support), the leading primary challenger.
The Wolf campaign called attention in a blast email to a classic Freudian slip by Roberts today, when being interviewed today on the KCMO morning show with Greg Knapp.
When questioned by Knapp about listener concerns that Roberts does not actually live in the state, Roberts responded in part:

MISSISSIPPI – Sen. Thad Cochran’s (R-Miss.) primary challenger, state Sen. Chris McDaniel, is offering a $1,000 reward in exchange for evidence of voter fraud in his contentious primary fight that leads to an arrest.
The bounty stems from a report from a conservative blogger  [Charles C Johnson] published earlier this week outlining allegations from a self-identified African-American minister that the Cochran team instructed him to pay African-Americans $15 each to vote for Cochran in the runoff.
The pastor said he believed the tactic was widespread and drove thousands of voters to the polls, but he was paid for the interview by a conservative blogger, raising doubts about the legitimacy of his claims. (more…)

JACKSON, Miss. – The runoff in the U.S. Senate primary between Thad Cochran and Chris McDaniel may be over, but the drama is reaching a fever pitch one week after ballots were cast across Mississippi.

Deputies from the Hinds County Sheriff’s Department are outside of GOP headquarters in Jackson today, while Republican leaders meet to talk about voting irregularities as claimed by the McDaniel campaign. We are told deputies are checking the identification of anyone wishing to enter the building.
In addition, State Senator Michael Watson tells WJTV News Channel 12 that the McDaniel camp has found 3,300 “irregular votes” from last Tuesday’s election. (more…)

RedState.com shares a story, documentation, and audio tape from Mississippi which shows a black Mississippi preacher was promised $16,000 to deliver black democrats to the polls during the primary runoff election.
MASSIVE AND WIDESPREAD FRAUD – In addition each voter was promised $15/vote to vote for Thad Cochran.  
Charles C Johnson is reporting from Mississippi.   
If this evidence holds up not only will Thad Cochran lose the election, but Thad Cochran might lose his senatorial seat as it exists right now.
[Via Charles C Johnson] … A Democrat black reverend, who brought “hundreds” to the polls for promise of payment, exposes alleged massive voter fraud, vote buying operation by Cochran campaign.
A black reverend stiffed by the Cochran campaign has exposed an alleged criminal conspiracy by Cochran staffers to commit massive voter fraud ahead of Tuesday’s controversial U.S. Senate Republican runoff election in Mississippi.
Reverend Stevie Fielder, associate pastor at historic First Union Missionary Baptist Church and former official at Meridian’s redevelopment agency, says he delivered “hundreds or even thousands,” of blacks to the polls after being offer money and being assured by a Cochran campaign operative that Chris McDaniel was a racist.

“They [the Cochran campaign] told me to offer blacks fifteen dollars each and to vote for Thad.”
