President Trump Invited to CPAC – Has The Time for CPAC Ended – Is It Time for a MAGA Convention

The Washington Examiner notes today that President Trump has been invited to attend the annual CPAC convention (Conservative Political Action Conference).  However, as long-term CTH readers will note, we hold no positive opinion on CPAC.

I would question if the time has come to conclude CPAC is a gathering of the same institutional political types that got us into this mess.  Y’all know my answer to that question has existed for seven years: CPAC is an assembly of fraud and abuse.

In their effort to be politically correct (aka culturally Marxist) the list of people who have been banned from CPAC is long.  Robert Spencer, Pam Geller, Milo, and now Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R, GA).  Any strong voice who has taken on the leftist movement in the U.S. (without regard for the nonsense rules espoused by the Alinsky community) has been ostracized from the conservative conference.

CPAC has, in essence, become a place where the establishment GOP dictates whose voice is permitted and who is essentially too deplorable to be heard.  Yes, there are some strong voices that show up, including President Donald Trump, Sarah Palin, Nigel Farage, Michelle Malkin, and other axe swinging wolverines who are deep in the fight.  However, the brutally honest point is things have changed…..

There should be new rules and a new confrontational attitude if we are going to save this republic.  CPAC and the pinkie raised champagne toasts just ain’t cutting it.  We are on the damn precipice, and the CPAC crew act like reaching across the aisle is a possible way to avoid the gallows.   This is a cycle of abuse we can no longer tolerate. We will not survive.

CTH 2.0 Updates, Optimization

Over the past several weeks the tech team behind CTH 2.0 has been working on a test site to optimize the battle-tank known as The Last Refuge.  This is phase-3 of the CTH anti-fragile system, know as the optimization phase.

The goal of optimization is to take the decades-old weight of our site, lighten the server load, increase the response time and simultaneously generate a site that optimizes based on the type of hardware being used by reader: desktops, laptops, tablets and mobile phones.

When CTH originally launched over a decade ago the theme was responsive to desktop and laptop computer users.  Mobile platforms were in their infancy.  Now more than half of website users are coming to sites from tablets or phones.  The optimization phase will make those user experiences easier and more responsive.

The landing page of CTH will not change too much (example image on left). However, each of the top links “About Us”, “guidelines” etc will generate a different impression for the user.  The right margin will be streamlined on the Main landing page, and we will be introducing an alliance of allies to replace the old-school blogroll.

Most of the decisions for the layout, font and navigability have been worked out; and now the coding is underway to generate the final product.  Once that is established we will run it through the paces on the test site before switching over; much like the process we used when we switched from WordPress/Automattic to our own server network.

Several website operators have reached out asking us to provide details on the infrastructure being used to stay “anti-fragile”, meaning outside the reach of big tech.  There may come a day when that information is possible to share, but it will not be in the near future.  CTH is operating with an abundance of caution in the era of deplatforming and targeting.

President Trump Releases Statement on Senator Mitch McConnell: “Mitch is a dour, sullen, and unsmiling political hack”

President Trump appears to have triggered the Big Ugly, the confrontation against the DeceptiCon wing of the Uniparty, with a full-throated rebuke of Senator Mitch McConnell.

This statement from President Donald Trump is a good indicator of what lies ahead:

Support For Third U.S. Political Party Reaches Highest Point in Twenty Years, 63 Percent of Republicans and 70 Percent of Independents Want Third Party Option

A hot-button topic now has some interesting polling data from Gallup [pdf result here]. The poll shows that more Americans want a third party option than ever before in the two-decades of polling. Given the very visible exposure of the UniParty, two wings of the same vulture club in Washington DC, this does not come as a surprise.

Gallup – […] Independents are usually much more likely than Republicans or Democrats to favor a third political party, but in the current poll, Republicans are nearly as likely as independents to hold this view, 63% to 70%. That represents a dramatic shift for Republicans since last September when 40% favored a third party.

Republicans’ current level of support for a third party is also the highest Gallup has measured for Republicans or Democrats in Gallup’s trend. The previous high was 54% for Democrats in 2018. Currently, 46% of Democrats endorse a third party, down from 52% in September. (read more)

Obviously there is a lot to contemplate on this issue.  However, one of the key points to the formation of a third party is a cleansing of the state-by-state political apparatus.

Sunday Talks, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis Discusses COVID and the Travel Ban Threats From JoeBama Administration

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis appears with Maria Bartiromo to discuss how the state is able to balance COVID mitigation and still keep the economy open for people to work and make a living.  DeSantis notes the threats from the Biden administration to institute a travel ban on Florida are unconstitutional.

As Governor DeSantis notes schools have been open for in-person tuition all year and almost all businesses are operating without issue.  Millions of people are flowing into the Sunshine state as they flee the totalitarian dictates from Democrat governors.

Additionally DeSantis outlines the issues with Big Tech capturing confidential information from Floridan’s cell phones.  The privacy issues are being addressed by the FL legislature.

.

Governor Ron DeSantis is the leading candidate to carry the mantle of the MAGA community.  A commonsense outlook and a pragmatic approach toward retaining all inherent freedoms and liberties are the smart cornerstone of DeSantis policy.

Elections Have Consequences – Gas Prices Expected to Top $4/gal Next Year

When President Obama was in office gas prices soared to more than $5/gal.  When President Trump took office he unleashed the energy sector and we became energy independent for the first time driving gas prices down.  Now reports of the current JoeBama policy impact show gas prices likely to top $4.00/gal next year.

WASHINGTON – […] Since Election Day, gas and crude oil prices have jumped. In the United States, gas prices are up 18% and oil nearly 50%.

Said another industry expert, “In four years, we had made the U.S. energy independent and denied the bad guys the ability to control global oil prices. The Democrats undo it in two weeks. Just incredible.”

Adam Kinzinger Threatens to Target Matt Gaetz With DeceptiCon Superpac, Gaetz Says “F’ing Bring It”

If you have read CTH you know Adam Kinzinger is a House member of the DeceptiCon caucus. A McCain minded, war-mongering, lover of all things deep state.  He rides the uniparty like a bird of prey, and is one of the more visible CNN republicans because he loves to crap on anyone who would fight back against his insufferable duplicity.

Kinzinger sees himself as better than all those who prefer to focus on America First priorities. He is an elitist-minded politician who views the MAGA community of Trump supporters with utmost contempt.

We need a “Big Ugly” battle against these creatures who reside comfortably in the cocktail party circuit purchased by Wall Street.

(Via The Hill) Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) plans to target lawmakers including Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) with his new political action committee, which aims to aid GOP candidates that don’t embrace Trumpism.

The Illinois lawmaker — who has been a vocal Trump critic and was one of the 10 GOP House members to in favor of impeaching the former president for inciting a riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6 — told The Washington Post he has a “huge list” of members he would like to see challenged for perpetuating conspiracy theories and the unsubstantiated claim that the 2020 election was stolen.

DeceptiCons Perplexed, President Trump Support Not Waning – Retribution to GOP Increasingly Likely

Interestingly Politico is picking up on a fear amid the GOPe (establishment) that President Trump will likely not only survive the second insufferable impeachment effort, but he is likely to exit stronger than ever…. and that means retaliation against the DeceptiCon class of republicans.

This is the blind spot of the UniParty, their inability to see that smart Americans have identified their motives and are prepared to destroy them.

This is the aspect CTH warned about the day after the November election.  The GOPe is so fraught with elitist perspectives, it continues to assemble as a hopeless echo-chamber,  and they never see what is happening at the grassroots level in Middle-America.

(Via Politico) […] Not even Trump’s closest allies can believe the turn in fortunes. “He’s Teflon, right. It’s been a month since the Capitol riot and I would say, for the most part, the GOP has coalesced back behind him,” said a former Trump campaign official.

[…] Already, Trump aides contend, the impeachment process has proved beneficial to the ex-president — exposing disloyalty within the party’s ranks and igniting grassroots backlash against Republicans who have attempted to nudge the GOP base away from Trump.

Nebraska Sen. Ben Sasse spent last week fending off constituent criticisms and censures from state party officials after he compared Trumpism to “a civic cancer for the nation.” And Trump’s allies believe the ex-president’s impending impeachment trial will further illuminate who the turncoats are.

Another DeceptiCon Taps Out, Senator Richard Shelby (AL) Announces He Will Not Run for Reelection

The number of republican senators not running for reelection just gained another name today. Senators Richard Burr (NC), Ron Johnson (WI), Pat Toomey (PA), and Rob Portman (OH) previously stated they were not going to seek reelection; now Senator Richard Shelby (AL) makes the same announcement.

They know the American electorate can see both wings of the UniParty vulture now.

WASHINGTON DC – Sen. Richard Shelby (R-Ala.) said on Monday that he would not run for reelection in 2022.

“Today I announce that I will not seek a seventh term in the United State Senate in 2022. For everything, there is a season,” Shelby said in a statement.

“Although I plan to retire, I am not leaving today. I have two good years remaining to continue my work in Washington. I have the vision and the energy to give it my all,” the 86-year-old senator added.  (read more)

In the 2022 Senate races there are 34 seats up for grabs.  14 are held by Democrats and 20 are held by tenuous Republicans.  [Breakdown Here] Due to vulnerability, their lack of support amid the republican base, and their insufferable 2020 behavior outing them as DeceptiCons it is almost guaranteed the GOP will lose seats in the 2022 mid-term election.

Tom Donohue Departing U.S. Chamber of Commerce

There is over a decade of deep research on Tom Donohue and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce within this website.  It was Donohue who originated the cabal assembly we define as “DeceptiCons”.  The U.S. CoC has been the biggest lobbyist spender in Washington DC since globalism and support for Wall Street took priority.

Immediately after they admitted the U.S. CoC worked with Big Labor and leftists to try and remove President Trump, Tom Donohue announces his departure from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

Via Axios – Board leadership at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce is close to naming Thomas Donohue’s successor, and is expected to appoint Suzanne Clark as its next leader, people familiar with the matter tell Axios.

Why it matters: As CEO, Donohue, 83, built the chamber into a political powerhouse that supports pro-business policies, contributes huge sums largely to Republicans and promises to give its international and domestic members a voice in Washington.
