Following the United Kingdom referendum vote to leave the European Union, UK Prime Minister David Cameron announces his pending resignation.
“There can be no doubts about this result” – During a press conference this morning Cameron said he is not the strong determined committed leadership required to begin unraveling Britain from the EU.

Standing outside Ten Downing Street, Cameron further gave a timeline of three months for a transitional process and a goal to have a new Prime Minister by October when the annual conservative (Tory) party conference begins.

Ask yourself why anyone would vote for a candidate who announces his/her U.S. Senate reelection bid and in the same breath refuses to say they intend to fulfill the 6-year term such a reelection requires.
Then ask yourself why would any candidate run for a political office while simultaneously refusing to commit to the term they are campaigning for.
Those two questions simply begin the discussion now that Florida Senator Marco Rubio has stated he has reversed position and intends to run for reelection.
What’s ultimately behind this decision is an intentional construct of the Wall Street legislative priority constructionists (GOPe leadership) to create a dynamic of controlled failure.

If you were paying attention early 2011 you might remember the Wisconsin “Fleebaggers“. The Fleebaggers were Wisconsin Senate Democrats who lost the November 2010 election and lost control of the Wisconsin Senate.  In an effort to avoid voting in the minority, the Democrats literally left the state of Wisconsin, and went to stay in hotels in Illinois, in an effort to shut down the legislative session.
The same mindset is applied today in Washington DC as national Democrats begin staging a sit-in in an effort to force House Republicans to bring up legislation on gun control measures.

The entire event is pure political nonsense.  Creating optics, and manufacturing false controversy, is the type of activity Democrats are famous for.  Pelosi and her team know very well how politics is “downstream from pop culture”, and a big part of their strategy is to use pop culture to manipulate politics in their favor.

It even received national coverage when leading Democrat presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton, tweeted this message of support for the story and the girls involved:

Except, it never happened.  They made it all up.
(Albany Times Union) Suspended University at Albany student Alexis Briggs tearfully apologized Tuesday while pleading guilty to her role in fabricating a story that she and two friends were victims of an alleged racial attack on a CDTA bus on Jan. 30. (more…)
