A good breakdown of a specific DNC convention speaker Jennifer Lim at The Intercept, outlines what we have been discussing for over four years.  Wall Street, via The U.S. Chamber of Commerce (Tom Donohue President) will support Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election.

Jennifer Lim (pictured below left) was presented to the DNC Convention audience as the co-founder of Republican women for Hillary.  What the DNC did not tell the audience was Lim’s day job as a lobbyist for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

As we continually stated throughout the GOP primary race, if Donald Trump was able to secure the GOP nomination the UniParty globalist financiers would support Hillary Clinton.

(Intercept) […]  the latest indication that the U.S. big-business community may be preparing to back Hillary Clinton, which would be a truly tectonic shift.

MIAMI (AP) — Mosquitoes have apparently begun spreading the Zika virus on the U.S. mainland for the first time, health officials said Friday in a long-feared turn in the epidemic that is sweeping Latin America and the Caribbean.

Four recently infected people in the Miami area – one woman and three men – are believed to have contracted the virus locally through mosquito bites, Gov. Rick Scott said.

No mosquitoes in Florida have actually been found to be carrying Zika, despite the testing of 19,000 by the state. But other methods of Zika transmission, such as travel to a stricken country or sex with an infected person, have been ruled out. (more…)

Update at bottom: *Note* my sincere apologies, I thought most people were already familiar with this story.  However, it has been brought to my attention that a massive number of people had no idea about this when it took place (2012 – 2015).  So additional information and context added at the bottom.  /SD

When you read this, sip slowly, dust off the way-back machine, and think about those who have surfaced visibly to support Hillary Clinton.  Including “retired” U.S. General John Allen (retired in 2012), who was previously brought out of retirement to lead President Obama’s fight against ISIS in 2014.

In order to understand the scope of the relationships it takes understanding the full back story.  Stay with it….

The question posed to the Tree House back in 2014 was: Why is the White House selecting a retired General John Allen, instead of a current commanding officer to lead Obama’s anti-ISIS efforts?

Deep breath: This White House uses personal leverage to their advantage like no other before it. Example #1: Where’s Bowe Bergdahl? Example #2: What ever happened to Ahmed Abu Khattala the captured head of the Benghazi attack ?

See… you had to think about it. This White House swamps us so much we forget to follow-up…..

There was a risk to the political optics of fighting ISIS.  A terrorist enemy the White House refused to acknowledge, and previously called the “JV Team”.  Consequently, the administration needed a competent “General” President Obama and Denis McDonough could control, rely upon, and quite possibly bypass the Pentagon.

So who did the White House leverage in 2014?

Yeah, General John Allen.
