Bernie Sanders on Trump win...

From his Facebook page:

Donald Trump tapped into the anger of a declining middle class that is sick and tired of establishment economics, establishment politics and the establishment media. People are tired of working longer hours for lower wages, of seeing decent paying jobs go to China and other low-wage countries, of billionaires not paying any federal income taxes and of not being able to afford a college education for their kids � all while the very rich become much richer.

To the degree that Mr. Trump is serious about pursuing policies that improve the lives of working families in this country, I and other progressives are prepared to work with him. To the degree that he pursues racist, sexist, xenophobic and anti-environment policies, we will vigorously oppose him.

Thin-skinned Trump?

Thin-skinned? Too irritable? Too likely to strike out wildly when on the receiving end of a slight, real or imagined? Would you want to entrust someone whose temperament is on a hair-trigger, as Trump's was said to be, with the awesome power of the U.S. military, including our nuclear codes?

That's the rap, endlessly repeated by the (irony alert!) calm and even-keeled Hillary Clinton, echoed faithfully by battalions of Democratic operatives with bylines at CNN, MSNBC, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and elsewhere.

But is it true? I happened to be watching Trump's rally in Reno last night when Secret Service agents rushed on stage -- "Go, go!" -- to grab him and, protecting his body with theirs, scurry him backstage after a protestor made what seemed to be a threatening move towards the stage.

A few minutes later, after the fellow had been removed from the arena, Trump strolled calmly back on stage.  "Nobody ever said this was going to be easy for us, but we will never be stopped," he observed. He then gave effusive thanks to the Secret Service and proceeded with his campaign talk. He was cool, calm, collected, almost nonchalant.  Ten minutes later he was boarding his plane to fly to Denver to preside over his final rally of the day.

A panel on Monday's MSNBC broadcast of "Morning Joe"discussed former president and Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton's husband former President Bill Clinton's relationship with billionaire and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. According to "Morning Joe" host Joe Scarborough, he has heard the story on the relationship will "blow up." "I will say this was a blind spot for me, because I'm not in New York circles," said Scarborough. "This is something I have been hearing about for a year-and-a half. I don't know the whole story or anything, but I keep having reporters say, 'This is going to blow up.'"

All lovers of God, family, country, liberty MUST vote for Donald TRUMP

All lovers of God, family, country, liberty MUST vote for Donald TRUMP! Now is not the time to waste your vote on a self-defeating protest. The very survival of our constitutional republic is at stake. Criminal traitor Hillary Clinton is totally unacceptable as president! Open-borders, amnesty and her constitution-destroying liberal activist judges will end constitutional liberty in America! If you defend the constitution, then you know Hillary must be stopped! There won't be another chance to get it right. Lock her out. Lock her up! Vote TRUMP!

So this is how Hope & Change ends.

So this is how Hope & Change ends. With the FBI in turmoil, with surging anti-police violence, with fears of voter fraud and foreign hacking, with a sluggish economy, with a terror warning and with two unpopular presidential candidates tearing at each other like wolves.

Heckuva job, Barack Obama!

The 44th president made history by being elected, but leaves behind a nation on the verge of a crack-up. He flatters himself by insisting his tenure has been a roaring success, but the public mood tells a different story.

Obama promised to unite America, but exits amidst far greater divisions. It is telling that he has stopped portraying himself as a uniter and, like Jimmy Carter, blames the public.

Carter saw malaise, Obama sees bitter clingers, racists and xenophobes. While Obama's lectures convey disappointment in his fellow Americans, it never occurs to him that he is a disappointment to them.

As secretary of state, Hillary Clinton routinely asked her maid to print out sensitive

As secretary of state, Hillary Clinton routinely asked her maid to print out sensitive government e-mails and documents � including ones containing classified information � from her house in Washington, DC, e-mails and FBI memos show. But the housekeeper lacked the security clearance to handle such material. In fact, Marina Santos was called on so frequently to receive e-mails that she may hold the secrets to E-mailgate � if only the FBI and Congress would subpoena her and the equipment she used. Clinton entrusted far more than the care of her DC residence, known as Whitehaven, to Santos. She expected the Filipino immigrant to handle state secrets, further opening the Democratic presidential nominee to criticism that she played fast and loose with national security.

Clinton would first receive highly sensitive e-mails from top aides at the State Department and then request that they, in turn, forward the messages and any attached documents to Santos to print out for her at the home. Among other things, Clinton requested Santos print out drafts of her speeches, confidential memos and "call sheets" � background information and talking points prepared for the secretary of state in advance of a phone call with a foreign head of state. "Pls ask Marina to print for me in am," Clinton e-mailed top aide Huma Abedin regarding a redacted 2011 message marked sensitive but unclassified.

In a classified 2012 e-mail dealing with the new president of Malawi, another Clinton aide, Monica Hanley, advised Clinton, "We can ask Marina to print this." "Revisions to the Iran points" was the subject line of a classified April 2012 e-mail to Clinton from Hanley. In it, the text reads, "Marina is trying to print for you." Both classified e-mails were marked "confidential," the tier below "secret" or "top secret." Santos also had access to a highly secure room called an SCIF (sensitive compartmented information facility) that diplomatic security agents set up at Whitehaven, according to FBI notes from an interview with Abedin. From within the SCIF, Santos � who had no clearance � "collected documents from the secure facsimile machine for Clinton," the FBI notes revealed.

Qatar/Clinton

by Breitbart News5 Nov 2016134

(REUTERS) The Clinton Foundation has confirmed it accepted a $1 million gift from Qatar while Hillary Clinton was U.S. secretary of state without informing the State Department, even though she had promised to let the agency review new or significantly increased support from foreign governments.

Qatari officials pledged the money in 2011 to mark the 65th birthday of Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton's husband, and sought to meet the former U.S. president in person the following year to present him the check, according to an email from a foundation official to Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign chairman, John Podesta. The email, among thousands hacked from Podesta's account, was published last month by WikiLeaks.

Entry #2,110

The elite...

From The Guardian:

This genre of Podesta email, in which people try to arrange jobs for themselves or their kids, points us toward the most fundamental thing we know about the people at the top of this class: their loyalty to one another and the way it overrides everything else. Of course Hillary Clinton staffed her state department with investment bankers and then did speaking engagements for investment banks as soon as she was done at the state department. Of course she appears to think that any kind of bank reform should "come from the industry itself". And of course no elite bankers were ever prosecuted by the Obama administration. Read these emails and you understand, with a start, that the people at the top tier of American life all know each other. They are all engaged in promoting one another's careers, constantly.

Everything blurs into everything else in this world. The state department, the banks, Silicon Valley, the nonprofits, the "Global CEO Advisory Firm" that appears to have solicited donations for the Clinton Foundation. Executives here go from foundation to government to thinktank to startup. There are honors. Venture capital. Foundation grants. Endowed chairs. Advanced degrees. For them the door revolves. The friends all succeed. They break every boundary.

But the One Big Boundary remains. Yes, it's all supposed to be a meritocracy. But if you aren't part of this happy, prosperous in-group � if you don't have John Podesta's email address � you're out.

Obama and his gang have sunk to new lows to attack Trump.

Obama and his gang have sunk to new lows to attack Trump.  They accuse him of being a racist because the KKK endorsed him.  Trump did not ask for the endorsement or accept it.  Obama knows this, but he will do anything to get Hillary elected.  They use the KKK story to appeal to black voters so they vote for Hillary.

Obama said:

If you disrespect women before you were president, you will disrespect women when you're in office. If you accept the support of a Klan sympathizer, the Klan, and hesitate when asked about that support, then you'll tolerate that support when you're in office.

Obama does not say that Hillary praised Democrat senator Robert Byrd, a KKK member, when Byrd died.  Nor does Obama say that Bill Clinton worked for Democrat senator William Fulbright, who voted against the 1964 Civil Rights Act.  Nor does Obama say that Al Gore's father, Democrat senator Albert Gore, voted against the 1964 Civil Rights Act.  Nor does Obama say that Joe Biden described Obama as "clean and articulate" for a black man, and Senator Harry Reid said the same, that Obama does not speak with a ghetto accent.

Many voted for Obama because they believed that electing the first black president would help heal the racial divide.  But Obama has made the racial divide worse, and now he shamefully uses false, inflammatory racial charges to help Hillary.

US Insiders – Not Russia – Leaked Clinton Emails

US Insiders � Not Russia � Leaked Clinton Emails

US Insiders � Not Russia � Leaked Clinton Emails

By WashingtonsBlog

November 03, 2016 "Information Clearing House" �  We've repeatedly shown that it's much more likely that American insiders � not Russian hackers � leaked the Clinton emails.

Today, the NSA executive who created the agency's mass surveillance program for digital information, who served as the senior technical director within the agency, who managed six thousand NSA employees, the 36-year NSA veteran widely regarded as a "legend" within the agency and the NSA's best-ever analyst and code-breaker, who mapped out the Soviet command-and-control structure before anyone else knew how, and so predicted Soviet invasions before they happened ("in the 1970s, he decrypted the Soviet Union's command system, which provided the US and its allies with real-time surveillance of all Soviet troop movements and Russian atomic weapons") � told Washington's Blog: ...

Prominent investment advisor and economic forecaster Martin Armstrong writes today:

All our indications from behind the curtain are suggesting that there are many within the "intelligence" sector and "law enforcement" sector who are deeply troubled with the Clintons. They are trying to release documents and info to stop the Clinton Inc. Machine. That's all we can say on this topic right now. Suffice it to say, there is a real internal battle going on in Washington.

New Sources Suggest Eric Braverman is in FBI Protective Custody

New Sources Suggest Eric Braverman is in FBI Protective Custody
By Benjamin D. Price � November 4, 2016

Last week, we reported the disappearance of former CEO of the Clinton Foundation Eric Braverman. Intel provided suggested that he fled the country fearing for his life, seeking asylum in Russia.

That was nine days ago, and there has still been no word from (or sightings of) Eric Braverman.

However, a new source within the intelligence community suggests that was misinformation intentionally spread through social media by several sources, and in fact, he is being held in protective custody by the FBI in exchange for his testimony against Hillary Clinton.

"WITH AN INVESTIGATION AT THIS LEVEL, YOU CAN EXPECT UNIQUE SAFEGUARDS TO BE IMPLEMENTED TO PROTECT THEIR WITNESS"

Braverman is the man who exposed the most serious Clinton scandal � the Clinton Foundation.

The internal Clinton Foundation power struggle between Chelsea Clinton and Doug Band was exposed in Wikileaks emails.  It began in 2011 when, Chelsea started to take a more prominent role at the Clinton Foundation.

Why I Can No Longer Support Hillary Clinton

Why I Can No Longer Support Hillary Clinton

It took me a long time to write this. I had to dig deep into my being to come up with these words. I'm recanting my endorsement of Hillary Clinton for the presidency.

I'm aware of how vindictive Clintonians can be. I'm not speaking about the Clintons themselves, but of those surrounding them. Perhaps the saying is true:dime con qui�n andas y te dir� qui�n eres. Your staff, your donors, your surrogates, and those you surround yourself with are a reflection of who you truly are, no? If not, why not curb any unacceptable behavior? Silence, indifference, or inaction is as incriminatory-at least to me.

There has been no repudiation, let alone denunciation, of what was said in those emails-just denial, finger pointing, and doublespeak. To appoint the very same folks who carried out many malicious behaviors to tip the scales for Hillary is just as unpardonable. Why reward unethical behavior? It's mind-boggling.

I rebuke with my heart, mind, and soul all the twisted narratives of sexism, misogyny, racism, and classism lay at our feet. Though some of them are legitimate, most were used to derail valid grievances from our communities and completely erase us. Our voices were drowned out by empty accusations, by a nefarious usage of identity politics recommended by one of our own, no less. That is a bamboozling of POC and unsuspecting allies. This is why Hillary Clinton doesn't deserve our vote, among many other reasons.

...

I caution that this beacon of moral clarity at HuffPo is just an editorial piece from an individual writer, not from the HuffPo editorial board.  So of course it's not necessarily reflective of the Huff Po's general sentiment.  Nonetheless, the fact that they ran such "heresy" on any of their pages at all speaks volumes, especially considering the author previously was toeing the line for the DNC nominee.  He's apparently no longer afraid to call a spade a spade...

Bernie Sanders was treated horribly by the DNC, the Clinton crew, and the Obama administration, and by proxy, many of us were also stung. Without any apologies. In fact, we received nothing but contempt from the Clinton campaign and her surrogates. Then they expected us to fall in formation. Many of us did. I said I would endorse Hillary if she won the primary fair and square. And I did, but that was before I got a hold of all the highly unethical things that happened to get her to win.

Kudos to the guy for coming around!  And if the comments on the piece are any indication, it's pretty clear he's got a lot of company...
