Records show FBI agents gave Andrew Gillum tickets to 'Hamilton' in 2016

Seriously??  Thud

Records show FBI agents gave Andrew Gillum tickets to ‘Hamilton’ in 2016

"Undercover FBI agents paid for Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum's hotel room and his ticket to the Broadway musical Hamilton during a 2016 trip to New York City, according to a bombshell trove of records that raises new questions two weeks before the Nov. 6 election for Florida governor.

Among the records released Tuesday: photos, a video and dozens of text messages between Gillum, who is the Democratic nominee for governor, former lobbyist Adam Corey and an undercover FBI agent. They appear to contradict Gillum's explanation for the expenses, which have been made an major issue by his Republican rival, Ron DeSantis.

Gillum's campaign has maintained — and continued to do so Tuesday after the records were released — that Gillum's brother, Marcus, handed him the ticket the night of the show.

But text messages at the time of the trip show Gillum was told the tickets came from "Mike Miller," an FBI agent looking into city corruption who was posing as a developer.

"Mike Miller and the crew have tickets for us for Hamilton tonight at 8 p.m.," Corey texted Gillum on Aug. 10, 2016. ...."

Young Angry Men & Gangbangers March Towards U.S. Yelling "Vamos Para Allá Trump!"

Young Angry Men & Gangbangers March Towards U.S. Yelling “Vamos Para Allá Trump!”

"Besides gang members and mobs of young angry men, the Central American caravan making its way into the United States also consists of Africans, Bangladeshis, Sri Lankans and Indians. Judicial Watch is covering the crisis from the Guatemalan-Honduran border this week and observed that the popular mainstream media narrative of desperate migrants—many of them women and children—seeking a better life is hardly accurate. Guatemalan intelligence officials confirmed that the caravan that originated in the northern Honduran city of San Pedro Sula includes a multitude of Special Interest Aliens (SIA) from the countries listed above as well as other criminal elements and gang members.

There are also large groups of men, some with criminal histories, aggressively demanding that the U.S. take them in. During a visit to the Guatemalan town of Chiquimula, about 35 miles from the Honduran border, Judicial Watch encountered a rowdy group of about 600 men, ages 17 to about 40, marching north on a narrow two-lane highway. Among them was a 40-year-old Honduran man who previously lived in the United States for decades and got deported. His English was quite good, and he said his kids and girlfriend live in the U.S. Another man in his 30s contradicted media reports that caravan participants are fleeing violence and fear for their life. “We’re not scared,” he said waving his index finger as others around him nodded in agreement. “We’re going to the United States to get jobs.” Others chanted  “vamos para  allá Trump!”  (We’re coming Trump) as they clenched their fists in the air. “We need money and food,” said a 29-year-old man who made the trek with his 21-year-old brother. ...."

Migrant Declares That Trump Is "The Antichrist" As Caravan Swells To 14,000 People

Please click the link to see photos of them carrying their nations' flags while marching. Seems if the nation they were leaving was so bad they'd leave all traces of it behind.

Also please see photo at the bottom of the article showing burning of an American flag with a swastika painted on it. Yep they love America don't they?

They're characterized as "freedom seeking migrants", but could they be only free-s*** demanding invaders hell bent on crashing our borders and using the ploy of seeking asylum to enroll in social programs to overwhelm the system?

At this point it has ceased to look like a humanitarian caravan seeking asylum and more like a full on orchestrated invasion with transportation provided.

Remember when you vote ...... the left values illegals and their rights more than they care about US legal citizens.

Trump: 'You know what I am? I'm a nationalist'

If world leaders inspired their countries to do well as Pres Trump as inspired and revitalized the US, the entire world would do well. Very easy to criticize someone for doing something they're unwilling or incapable of doing. Most are too happy to live luxuriously while their citizens scrape by.

The Democrats are Crazy for Opposing Trump on the Migrant Caravan and Foreign Aid

Language warning. Styx video and as usual a sensible discussion. For some reason after a Win 10 update some YT videos will play visual but have no sound. This is why I've not posted his videos. Sound plays on my phone but rarely do vids on the phone.

WSJ Op-Ed Cracks The Code: Why Liberal Intellectuals Hate Trump

WSJ Op-Ed Cracks The Code: Why Liberal Intellectuals Hate Trump

"....Mr. Trump reminds us who the average American really is. Not the average male American, or the average white American. We know for sure that, come 2020, intellectuals will be dumbfounded at the number of women and blacks who will vote for Mr. Trump. He might be realigning the political map: plain average Americans of every type vs. fancy ones...."

"....This all leads to an important question—one that will be dismissed indignantly today, but not by historians in the long run: Is it possible to hate Donald Trump but not the average American?

"True, Mr. Trump is the unconstrained average citizen. Obviously you can hate some of his major characteristics—the infantile lack of self-control in his Twitter babble, his hitting back like a spiteful child bully—without hating the average American, who has no such tendencies. (Mr. Trump is improving in these two categories.) You might dislike the whole package. I wouldn’t choose him as a friend, nor would he choose me. But what I see on the left is often plain, unconditional hatred of which the hater—God forgive him—is proud. It’s discouraging, even disgusting. And it does mean, I believe, that the Trump-hater truly does hate the average American—male or female, black or white. Often he hates America, too.

Granted, Mr. Trump is a parody of the average American, not the thing itself. To turn away is fair. But to hate him from your heart is revealing. Many Americans were ashamed when Ronald Reagan was elected. A movie actor? But the new direction he chose for America was a big success on balance, and Reagan turned into a great president. Evidently this country was intended to be run by amateurs after all—by plain citizens, not only lawyers and bureaucrats.

Those who voted for Mr. Trump, and will vote for his candidates this November, worry about the nation, not its image. The president deserves our respect because Americans deserve it—not such fancy-pants extras as network commentators, socialist high-school teachers and eminent professors, but the basic human stuff that has made America great, and is making us greater all the time."

Loose Ends (49), On Khashoggi And "Caravans"

LOOSE ENDS (49), ON KHASHOGGI AND “CARAVANS”

" • Regarding the “caravan” of “migrants” heading from central America to the southern U.S. border—do Democrats think we were all born yesterday? It is widely known that polls find a lot of apathy and indifference among Hispanic voters in the mid-term election now two weeks out, so what better way to whip up Hispanic voters than to see images in the news of downtrodden migrants being denied entry to the U.S. by the Trump Administration. No one in the media seems to be asking who has organized this large effort just now, how it is being paid for, what logistics are involved (the “caravan” won’t reach the border by election day on foot, so expect them to take some busses along the way—provided and paid for by whom?)...."
