Former State Dept And CIA Employee Arrested, Charged With Federal Espionage

"A former State Department employee was arrested Thursday and charged with espionage for allegedly transmitting Top Secret and Secret documents to a Chinese government agent, according to an affidavit filed with the U.S. District Court in Alexandria, VA.

Kevin Mallory, 60, of Leesburg is a self-employed consultant who speaks fluent Chinese. Court filings show that Mallory was an Army veteran who worked as a special agent for U.S. State Department's Diplomatic Security Service from 1987 to 1990. Since then, Mallory has worked for various government agencies and defense contractors, maintaining a Top Secret security clearance. The Washington Post reports that Mallory was also an employee of the CIA. ...."

McCain's Institute is Funded by Soros

McCain’s Institute is Funded by Soros

By Eren Moreno
Source Truthfeed.com

"....In true “traitor McCain” style, he has some really sketchy liberal donors.

George Soros contributed $100,000 to McCain’s foundation, as did Teneo, a for-profit company co-founded by Bill Clinton’s “bag man” Doug Brand.

At this point, McCain should just declare himself to be the globalist puppet that he really is...."

"..... The institute has accepted contributions of as much as $100,000 from billionaire liberal activist-funder George Soros and from Teneo, a for-profit company co-founded by Doug Band, former President Bill Clinton’s “bag man.”

Teneo has long helped enrich Clinton through lucrative speaking and business deals.

And Bloomberg reported in 2016 on a $1 million Saudi Arabian donation to the institute, a contribution the McCain group has refused to explain publicly.

In addition, the institute has taken at least $100,000 from a Moroccan state-run company tied to repeated charges of worker abuse and exploitation.

The McCain group has also accepted at least $100,000 from the Pivotal Foundation, which was created by Francis Najafi who owns the Pivotal Group, a private equity and real estate firm.

The Pivotal Foundation has in the last three years given $205,000 to the National Iranian-American Council (NIAC), which has been a vocal advocate for the Iranian nuclear deal the Obama administration negotiated."

Michael Bloomberg: We Must 'Get Behind' 'Our President' Trump—'The Public Has Spoken'

He's just now realizing that??? Green laugh

Michael Bloomberg: We Must ‘Get Behind’ ‘Our President’ Trump—‘The Public Has Spoken’

"..... Bloomberg, who said that Trump has a 55% chance to be re-elected, spent much of the interview trying to appeal to everyone with various uninspiring platitudes as he is accustomed to doing. And when co-host Jedediah Bila asked him if he was thinking about running for president, he said the only “presidency I’m thinking about is my block association.” Commenting on Republican Karen Handel’s victory Tuesday night in Georgia’s sixth congressional district over Democrat Jon Ossoff, Bloomberg, without any sense of irony, said that the election showed that “all the money in the world can’t buy an election” because “the public is a lot smarter than people give them credit for.”

The AP Takes a Sober Look at the Democrats

From the article a description of note says it all  ... "So far, running campaigns on the political equivalent of road rage isn’t working."

The AP Takes a Sober Look at the Democrats

".....Werner quotes a range of Democratic reaction to the special election losses, but I think the most sensible comment comes from Congressman Seth Moulton:

    The outcome “better be a wake-up call for Democrats — business as usual isn’t working,” Rep. Seth Moulton, D-Mass., said over Twitter. “Time to stop rehashing 2016 and talk about the future.”

I think that is right. The Democrats need to move on from their 2016 defeats. So far, running campaigns on the political equivalent of road rage isn’t working...."

"....For my part, I hope the Democrats heed the counsel of Jim Dean of Democracy For America, who says Ossoff and the others lost because they failed to “[run] on a bold progressive vision.” In 2018, it would be great to see 435 Democratic House candidates who are all bolder and more progressive than Jon Ossoff."

The Russians Do It Again: Democrats Get Crushed In Georgia Election Despite 7x Spending Advantage

Green laugh ROFL

The Russians Do It Again: Democrats Get Crushed In Georgia Election Despite 7x Spending Advantage

"....Of course, making Handel's win even sweeter for Republicans is the fact that Democrats outspent them by a margin of 7-to-1, with Ossoff dropping a staggering ~$22 million versus only $3 million for Handel....which is kind of reminiscent of how things played our for Hillary...oops. ...."

The Empire Strikes Back

I've always enjoyed reading Hinderaker's take on things. Great read.

Additionally I'll comment that their present rhetoric shows how they will govern if given the majority power to do so. Scary thought.

The Empire Strikes Back

John Hinderaker Source: Powerlineblog.com


"....Those are mild comments; milder than I would make. It is fair to say that violence has been incited by the leading cultural voices of the Left, who every evening on television call President Trump a Nazi, a fascist, a racist, a misogynist and a traitor; who denounce him in similar terms in every entertainment awards show; who were calling for his impeachment before he was inaugurated; who condone rioters who, wearing black masks, smash store windows with bricks and assault Republicans; who make it impossible for a conservative to give a speech on a college campus; who say, every day, that Republicans are trying to make everyone sick and destroy the planet; who display the president’s severed head as a trophy and enact his assassination in Central Park; and so on ad infinitum.

But the Democrats are in no mood to look in the mirror: ...."

" .... There is a difference between “aggressive rhetoric” and severed heads and bricks through windows during an inauguration. And why were there “outbreaks of violence” at some of Trump’s campaign rallies? Because Democratic Party operatives paid provocateurs to disrupt the rallies in hopes of starting fights. ..."

"...They can bridle all they want, but when has a Republican proudly displayed the severed, bloody head of Nancy Pelosi? Or Chuck Schumer? Or Barack Obama? When have Republicans thrown bricks through store windows or assaulted Democrats on the street? When have Republicans rioted to prevent Democrats from speaking on college campuses? When have Republicans accused Nancy Pelosi or Chuck Schumer of treason? When have Republicans sent provocateurs into Democratic presidential rallies to start fights? When have Republicans urged “Resistance” against a Democratic president who they claim is a Nazi? ..."

Presidential Historian: Deep State Operatives Are Attempting Coup d'état of US President (VIDEO)

Presidential Historian: Deep State Operatives Are Attempting Coup d’état of US President (VIDEO)

 " Doug Wead: We have very skilled, talented professionals. They’ve overthrown governments in Vietnam and the Philippines, in Iraq and Iran, in Egypt, in the Ukraine. Duly elected democratic governments. They created what they called “popular uprisings.”

    What did we expect?  That’s there skill set.  These people who work some of them in the State Department, some of them in intelligence, some of them in the media.  They’ve worked together to overthrow other governments.  So it was inevitable they would use the gun on ourselves.  So here they go, let’s see if we can do this in America.  It looks Like a coup d’état. I don’t know how else you would explain it. "
