Yesterday we highlighted a tongue-in-cheek outline about a transparent foreign official campaigning in the U.S. against Hillary Clinton to benefit Donald Trump, ie. Nigel Farage.
The reason for the outline was to prove a point that even if Russia had an ambassador in the United States actively campaigning to assist Donald Trump – SO WHAT? 
Is the media having a conniption because the Trump Campaign was calling and talking to Nigel Farage?
What’s the difference?
It didn’t happen, but even if Team Trump had contact with Russians about the U.S. election, there’s absolutely no issue with such activity taking place.  Take the name “Russia” out of the equation and it happens all the time, and political activists from the Obama administration have been the single most aggressive political campaigners doing exactly that in other countries.
Perhaps everyone forgets Obama’s former White House official David Axelrod being paid $500,000 by the UK Labour party to assist candidate Ed Miliband, in the 2015 British election.  (Below left)  Oh, and he lost.

Perhaps everyone forgets former national field director for President Obama’s 2012 reelection campaign, Jeremy Bird, being involved in an opposition effort to remove Benjamin Netanyahu from office and campaigning for Isaac Herzog in Israel.  Or Secretary of State John Kerry (above right) openly doing everything he could to advance Herzog’s chances over Netanyahu in 2015.  Oh, and he lost too.
Was CNN, The Washington Post or New York Times calling for investigations of President Obama’s interventionist political activity?  Same/Same. (more…)

Buckets of awesome. In advance of the upcoming French election, Team Marine Le Pen presents their version of:  Vive la peuple, vive la république, vive la France!

Deplorables of the World Unite !

It’s time for France to make itself great again! The people are rising around Europe to put end the cancer of corrupt globalism, and the recent victories in the UK, US, and Italy show that there are no signs of slowing down. Vive la peuple, vive la république, vive la France!

French Presidential candidate, Francois Fillon, has called for a 12:00pm (local time – 6:00am U.S. Eastern Time zone) press conference.  This comes a day after he cancelled a trip to the annual Paris Agricultural Fair.   My hunch is Fillon may be ending his bid for the French presidency.

  UPDATE 8:00am EST  Fillon is staying in –  French presidential candidate Francois Fillon will remain in the race, saying he won’t quit, even as judges plan to charge him with misuse of public funds. Bloomberg’s Caroline Connan reports on “Bloomberg Surveillance.” (Source: Bloomberg)

Within French presidential politics the Paris Agricultural Fair is similar in political tradition to the Iowa State Fair during U.S .Presidential election years.  Marine Le Pen was there over the past weekend.

Another research report surfaces today highlighting a growing international trend.  More People are beginning to identify the structures of liberal government as untrustworthy; it is quite an interesting dynamic.
The latest Trust Survey comes from Canada and shows a massive drop in trust by Canadians toward the construct of their governance.
While there are many media voices who would immediately seek to refute the empirical evidence within such surveys, one thing becomes increasingly clear.  The more liberal the structure of government, the greater the drop in trust.  [UK Brexit, USA Trump, France Le Pen surge are recent examples.]

Within the Canadian survey you find another similarity to underlying nationalist distrust, the media are viewed as the problem [Slide #13, #15].  There is no doubt a large number of people throughout the globe are waking up to the reality of their leftist media being co-conspirators in the selling and maintenance of leftist governance.

Tucker Carlson interviews the former US Ambassador To Sweden Azita Raji about the current immigration issues faced within Sweden and the growing crime problem… or at least that’s what Tucker tried to do.
What followed from the very first question is a representative definition of “Parseltongue”.
Exhaustive words flowed from Ms. Raji, circling aimlessly amid a word cloud quickly filled by her verbal thesaurus of nothingness. WATCH: 

Sorry, I know you’ll never get that 6 minutes of your life back… but it showcases a brutal point about the professional left.
Ask yourself this immediate question:

What did she say?

Within the answer to that question you’ll know what it’s like to debate a globally-minded Marxist.  However, that said, almost all of the current occupants within the U.S. State Department could watch the same video and applaud her eloquence.

We are so fortunate Rex Tillerson was willing to take on the role of Secretary of State.  T-Rex’s approach is giving the pearl-clutching leftists fits, as outlined in this article by ABC which displays their collective angst.
(Via ABC) [..]  In his first weeks as America’s top diplomat, Tillerson has gone to great lengths to avoid attracting attention, despite a growing perception in Washington that the State Department is being sidelined by a power-centric White House.
Some State Department officials have been told by the White House to expect drastic budget cuts, with much of the reduction potentially coming out of U.S. foreign aid money. Trump and his team have also told those interviewing for top State Department jobs that significant staffing cuts will come. Some appear to have started already.

President Trump made a comment during his rally on Saturday about Sweden, and something he noted on Friday, the evening prior.  President Trump was talking about the “refugee crisis” and his strict immigration proposals called “extreme vetting”.

“We’ve got to keep our country safe,” he said. “You look at what’s happening in Germany. You look at what’s happening last night in Sweden. Sweden, who would believe this? Sweden. They took in large numbers. They’re having problems like they never thought possible. You look at what’s happening in Brussels. You look at what’s happening all over the world. Take a look at Nice. Take a look at Paris.” –LINK–

President Trump’s reference was to an interview between Fox News Tucker Carlson and documentary filmmaker Ami Horowitz that took place on Friday night, the night before the rally.
The documentary is about the rape crisis in Sweden resulting from massive economic migration, aka “refugees”.  There is even a horrible term for the current reality for women in Sweden called “rapeugees”.
Horowitz appeared on Tucker’s show to discuss his latest documentary film of the issue titled “Stockholm Syndrome“- Rape and violence exploding across Sweden due it’s immigration policies.  Here is an excerpt of the documentary:

*NOTE* The Actual Interview With Ami Horowitz is HERE

Tucker Carlson interviews Ami Horowitz, a documentary filmmaker who has recently spent a great deal of time investigating Sweden and the current hidden refugee crisis.

Journalist Ami Horowitz told Fox News people high up in the Swedish government are purposely covering up the perpetrators of rape crimes to protect “vulnerable” migrants.
During an explosive interview on Friday, Mr Horowitz claimed the refugee violence crisis was out-of-control but that “European virtues” had put a stop to any discussion on the statistics. (more)

However, despite the liberal worldview outlined by Horowitz, evidence now suggests the views of the Swedish electorate have adjusted following the consequences of large scale refugee influx.  People are now more open about their opposition.
SWEDEN […]  Sweden has been the poster child for openness and toleration for decades but that has changed in just two years, the study by independent British think-tank Demos found.
In September 2015, thousands of people took to the streets with banners saying “Refugees Welcome” while Prime Minister Stefan Löfven spoke about not building walls and offering help “when need is great”.
