Trump Surge Freakout: More Violence Against Supporters

"As Election Day nears and the GOP nominee rises, attacks on his backers, signs and buildings are escalating"

Lifezette  "Physical attacks on Donald Trump supporters and their personal property appear to be growing increasingly common as Election Day approaches and passions intensify.

"As LifeZette recently reported ^[1], there was a foiled assassination attempt at a Trump rally and many Trump supporters have been beaten up or hit with flying objects throughout the course of the fall campaign.

“ 'I think there is desperation by Democrats that Trump is actually gaining in the polls and it looks real good that he’s going to win.”

"While the mainstream media has relentlessly promoted Hillary Clinton’s candidacy, it has largely ignored or downplayed these violent attacks against supporters of Donald Trump.

"or example, the national media paid little attention to a Trump supporter being shot by a Trump detractor in Ohio.

"In late July an unidentified 60-year-old man was shot in the leg at Winston’s Bar on Cleveland’s East Side. His assailant, Darnell Hall, 45, shot him after their discussion of presidential politics grew heated. The attacker “was enraged that anyone in the overwhelmingly African-American bar would support the GOP nominee,” the Plain Dealer reports. Hall later surrendered to police and was charged with felonious assault." . . .

Cleaning Up Obama’s Foreign Policy Mess

By Abe Greenwald at Commentary  "What is America’s purpose in the world? At the end of 2016, with Barack Obama’s two­ term presidency coming to a close,the question seems almost outmoded. Not only does the United States currently have no national purpose; the very idea of a national purpose is now unfashionable. This is the logical result of eight years of American political leadership devoted to minimizing American global leadership.

"In our democratic republic, we choose presidents who reflect the national mood, and they in turn lead a nation that becomes a reflection of them. In 2008, Americans were tired of the war in Iraq and elected Barack Obama on his promise to end that war—but he had a far larger retreat in mind. Pursuing a staunchly progressive worldview, Obama would oversee the withdrawal of American power around the globe. Yet as his vision of a better world lost out to the reality of a much more treacherous one, he refused to change course. Responding to the new threats would have distilled for the country a new sense of national purpose—something Obama expressly feared. In exacerbating and then downplaying a rising global wave of theocratic and secular tyranny, the "President has left our sense of national purpose in a shambles. And having done so, he will depart the White House with the free world at great risk." . . .

Democrats have turned once-great America into just another third-world oligarchy*

The 10 Most Corrupt Countries in the World
After the ten are named comes this Honorable mention:

Honorable Mention: The United States

• Corruption score: 74
• Power structure: Democratic Republic

. . . "There has to be an honorable mention for the United States, which many people figure has to be the most corrupt nation on Earth. The fact is, the U.S. does have a great deal of corruption in many forms, like lobbying, bribery, gerrymandering, and bought elections. But according to the corruption index, the U.S. pales in comparison to countries in Africa, Asia, and the Middle East." . . .

Obama Gets Angry In Fayetteville, NC, reaches new lows in promoting Hillary

Obama reaches another low to help Hillary . . . "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."

You're going to make this guy your champion if you're a working person?" Obama asked. Come on."

Will Obama Pardon Hillary? . . . "As my colleague Ed Morrissey points out, President Gerald Ford pardoned President Richard Nixon after he resigned from the Oval Office and before he was ever officially charged with a crime. At the time of the pardon, nearly everyone knew and admitted Nixon was guilty. Ford was criticized for clearing him. "

These are the people Obama is campaigning for, just to keep his "legacy".
A Timely Reminder of Just the Sort of People the Clintons Are  "By way of Powerline comes this video from an episode of the television news show 20/20 which I believe dates back to 2002 or 2003. It features a Democrat mega-donor named Peter Paul who claims to have spent $1.5 million hosting a fund-raising gala for Hillary Clinton’s 2000 Senate race with the expectation that outgoing President Bill Clinton would help him with his business interests. The segment lasts about eleven minutes and is well worth the watch:"  The hustler-in-chief:

Dumbest article of the week

"Indoctrination and junk science are truly  dangerous to people’s freedoms." 

American Thinker
. . . "In the 1920’s the fear mongers were saying exactly what they are today and yet the Earth cooled and the ice came back. The Earth cooled so much from 1945 to 1976 that the “experts” started scaring the people about a coming ice age. Then they switched again to the threat of warming. It is all garbage." . . .
. . . 

"Who determined what the temperature and sea level should be since they have always changed? Isn’t it true arrogance for politicians to believe they can set policies that can control temperatures and sea levels hundreds of years out? President Obama and Hillary can’t even figure out how to comply with simple national security laws but yet they say they can control temperatures. Amazing! What is more amazing is that reporters believe them.

"Taking trillions of dollars from the public to give to the ever powerful and greedy government truly harms the poor and middle class throughout the world, people the Democrats, the media and Hollywood pretend to care about. We should never destroy industries and products that have greatly improved the quality and length of life for everyone based on inaccurate, manipulated computer models."

Jay Z repeatedly drops n-word, f-bomb during concert for Hillary Clinton

Hillary said she used to be in a rap group and has an entire library with thousands of rap albums and a pantry full of hot sauce.

Hillary celebrated by cop-haters  . . . "After the BRUTAL week she just went through, with the announcement of FIVE Different FBI files open on Hillary and her associates, who could Hillary call on to drum up the flagging enthusiasm?

"Why, some foul-mouthed cop-haters, of course! Because degradation of women is just fine when she, Bill, or their friends do it." . . .

Is there any sense of shame among regular Democrats?

Business Insider  . . . "You're tuned into the motherf----- greatest," a voice said as Jay Z appeared onstage.

“If you feelin’ like a pimp n----, go and brush your shoulders off,” Jay Z rapped. “Ladies is pimps too, go and brush your shoulders off. N----- is crazy baby, don’t forget that boy told you. Get that dirt off your shoulders."

"Jay Z also performed the song "Jigga My N----," in which he boasted that he was "Jay-Z, motherf-------!"

The qualities that make Hillary such a champion

How to be a winner:

Assange said Hillary will win because Trump will not be allowed to win.  "The WikiLeaks founder who is currently living in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London assured the public troves of US Democratic Party and Clinton work and staff emails released this year were not linked to the Russian Government." . . .

"Assange, speaking from the Ecuadorian Embassy, where he has been for four years, accused Mrs Clinton of being a pawn of behind-the-scenes interests, while raising further questions over her health.

"He said: “Hillary Clinton is just one person. I actually feel quite sorry for Hillary Clinton as a person, because I see someone who is eaten alive by their ambitions, tormented literally to the point where they become sick – for example faint – as a result of going on, and going with their ambitions. 

" 'But she represents a whole network of people, and a whole network of relationships with particular states.' ”

Why a lot of people are moving out of California

CNN Money  "A lot of people are moving out of California because they can't afford to live there anymore.

"For every home buyer coming into the state, there are three Californians selling and moving elsewhere, according to data analysis firm CoreLogic.

" 'There is clearly a relationship between the migration patterns and home prices," said Sam Khater, deputy chief economist at CoreLogic. "The middle and lower middle can no longer afford to live in California."

"California's housing market is one of the most expensive in the nation, [with] a median home price of $428,000 across the state. Prices have shot up 71% since 2011.

"And a number of its local markets are prohibitively expensive. Of the five priciest housing markets in the country, four are in California, according to the latest data from the National Association of Realtors. San Jose tops the list with a median home price of $1 million." . . .  Kathryn Vasel

Loretta Lynch's lies and corrupt actions are sickening

M. Catharine Evans

"If Lynch truly wants to restore Americans' faith in the Department of Justice, she should resign immediately and then prepare for a separate investigation into her decision to grant Clinton special treatment."

. . . "Apparently, the top law enforcement officer of the United States and a Harvard-trained lawyer did not understand how a clandestine 30-minute meeting with Bill Clinton followed shortly thereafter by a refusal to indict his wife might look to the outside world.  Lynch quickly responded to criticism at the time by insisting that the meeting was "primarily social" and that "I certainly wouldn't do it again."

"Three months after the "grandkids and golf" talk, Lynch's chickens are coming home to roost.  The recent WikiLeaks revelations coupled with FBI director Comey's decision to reopen the criminal case against Hillary Clinton has Lynch in the hot seat.  Joseph Klein at Frontpage Mag accused Lynch's DOJ of "corruptly aiding and abetting the Democratic Party's presidential nominee, Hillary Clinton, to escape legal accountability for her actions." . . .

More on whomever will lead America through shot and shell.

"Donald Trump found himself leading Hillary Clinton in three presidential polls Thursday. In just four days, Americans must choose for president either a billionaire womanizer or the first Methodist ever to head a crime family. As the pilot of the Hindenburg once shouted, this is not a drill."

Last Gleaming

"Hope n' Change couldn't help having a Twilight Zone experience yesterday when, following a Fox News report that the FBI is 99% sure that up to five foreign intelligence services successfully hacked Hillary Clinton's private server and stole our classified secrets, we subsequently checked television, radio, print, and the Internet and found that the mainstream media is completely ignoring it.

"Perhaps because the allegations - which certainly ring true - remain unsubstantiated outside of Fox News, and even they are starting to use a little weasel-wording about how solid the story might be.

"Hope n' Change believes Hillary's private server was hacked, because it neatly explains the horrendous string of foreign policy failures our country suffered during and after her time as Secretary of State. Russia knew exactly how aggressive they could get, Iran had inside information about our nuclear negotiation strategies, ISIS knew with certainty what we were and weren't willing to do, and on and on." . . .

"Hey, look what the president sent us in the mail yesterday!"
