    This should please Soros no end, he finally managed it...thanks to his cohorts Obama and Clinton. Not only did his NGO's help destroy Syria, Libya, Ukraine, and a few other countries as well, but he turned us into exactly what he wanted... a failed state where laws are meant only for little people. Criminals like the Clintons can walk away free, because the Justice Dept. and FBI have all been compromised. To be honest, I don't think they're the only ones. I think much of the Senate and House have been as well.

    Anyway it's pretty good for one man, but then again look what Hitler and Lenin managed to do. We'll probably have the same end.





    Judicial Watch Director of Investigations, Chris Farrell, appeared on Fox News to discuss with Lou Dobbs the entrenched and all powerful Deep State, which is working daily to bury the United States in never ending scandals, and reverse the nation statism movement ushered in by Trump’s Presidential victory over their preferred globalist candidate, Hillary Clinton.

    Chris Farrell: It’s really a giant Socialist organ operating that protects itself. Offense after offense and you find laws are for the little people. The Clinton gang walks away. People say, “Hey where’s the Department of Justice investigation? Where’s the FBI?” Half the time they’re complicit… The people with direct firsthand knowledge, they’re the ones who kept their mouths shut for years… This is evidence that we are becoming a failed state.

    And I’m not exaggerating when I say that. When the entire Justice Department is paralyzed. When the entire Justice Department is compromised when there is no investigations. There’s these make-believe congressional hearings that are nothing more than soundbites..

    I thought this was going to be about Trump's so-called presidency.

    Then I saw it was another Jenny thread referencing The Duran, and I LOL'd.

    You are too generous by calling us a republic. Truth is, we are a banana oligarchy, with our lack of a free press, with a two tiered justice system, and a congress and presidents who has not represented the non elites for decades.

    The voting public are so divided, with MSM doing the job of the oligarchs, by keeping the gas can handy to throw fuel on this fire, and it has worked magnificently! The two tribes fight and bicker, believing we have a republic, which they would have known to be a lie if only our media had informed the People properly, and spoke truth to power.

    I have given up on us ever getting our republic back, but at the end of the day, the People always get the gov't that they deserve. Or so they say. Even while I did not vote for trump, I thought he just might begin the process of getting the republic back, to once again represent the common man, but it looks like he will do as obama did and flip flop himself right out of that. Of course, he was attacked right off the bat by both parties of the oligarchy and deep state, with congress castrating him, taking away traditional executive powers. He had to turn over foreign policy to the neocons, as he will turn over economic policy to the ruling wall street bankers. And his voters will learn a lesson I learned, presidents come and go, and are nothing more than a figure head, while the policies of the oligarchs endure.

    Economic suffering of more and more americans perhaps at some point will mobilize them, and the astute people on both sides will realized finally what their reality is, and this is the only hope we will ever get the republic back. But given the mentality of american voters today, and how badly they have been conditioned by a faux free press, I am pessimistic with that ever happening. But if it does happen, it will be the economic suffering that wakes us up. But defeating a post 1984 National Security Police State will be very hard. The way the two parties have control, over keeping populist candidates out, even our election system is perhaps not capable of change by the ballot box. You can bet the GOP and RNC are working hard to do as the dems did to keep out populist candidates. Trump's winning the primary was a wake up call for the oligarchs. It will never happen again once trump serves two terms or gets beat in 2020. See, when you have a grasp of reality, it isn't hard to make these prophesies. When you understand the republic is dead and gone, and that entrenched forces will work like the devil to keep the oligarchy in place, you can predict things of this nature, for it really is a very rare common sense, which discerns this stuff. Something americans seem to have lost, along with their republic.

    I recall reading Orwell's 1984, and then listening to an interview with Aldous Huxley, and shaking my head and thinking, there is no way in hell we could ever resemble that Orwellian hell. And Huxley, while a very intelligent man, has this all wrong. And yet both turned out to be right and my innocence sorely lacking in recognizing what these men were seeing the infancy of, and where we could go, using a frog boil paradigm. I could not imagine this nation ever going down these roads, for we had fought wars over such things. That it happened in my own life time is still hard to believe, but you have to believe when you see enough evidence to convict even the slickest crook and crooked defense attorney. It isn't like this evidence is hidden, for most of it is in plain sight, which shows you exactly what the ruling elites think of the intellect of the american voter. Herding us was a lot easier than I ever thought was possible. Yet when you divide a people, you can conquer them, without firing a shot.

    It was exactly the same way that I felt. Hopefully Judicial Watch will obtain some of the information they have been trying to get for the last couple of years. The prospect are not looking bright. If they get too close to Clinton you can expect some bodies to start showing up. What I really believe is going on is a scandal so large that it will implicate the Obama Administration and every Department from State, Justice and the CIA if not more. They will tell themselves that the country cannot stand a scandal of such magnitude as it would tear the country apart.

    Right, there's alot going on that is so transparent and of such monolithic consequences that half of the hill both sides of the aisle can't take any chance of actual justice being served or even an honest investigation.

    That Sarah Carter from Circa News has been all over several insane investigative reports. In the last year. Enough that at this point I'm not just blowing conspiracy theory hot air here.. I'm concerned for her personal safety. These are some of the most powerful, well connected and obnoxiously wealthy people on the planet she has been investigating.

    Makes me feel like the 4th Estate still exists in some small way but at the cost of her life? Meh.

    A "Banana Republic"?

    Trump's status as a wannabe Tinhorn Dictator assures that status for the USA.

    Nope. The USA became a banana republic when Kenyan became the president. He turned it into one, like every other African president did with their own coutny. Genetics. Just can't follow the rule of law.

    Actually Judicial Watch managed to get the Justice Department to look at the government documents that's on Weiner's computor. But here's the catch. There are hundreds of thousands of them, and they are looking at only 500 a month. I guess they figure that by the time they're finished Trump will be out of office, and another globalist freak will be in.

    When the NYC police department looked into Weiner's computer, some of the officers were crying at what they came across because they have children. What they also saw were photos of some well known figures American and foreign on Epstein's plane, which they believe were taken for blackmail... This means they do resort to blackmail, as well as murder to compromise people.

    So much for our 'democracy', but then what's one to expect when our government and controlled press refers to dictators in other countries as elected officials when they do our bidding, and elected officials as dictators and murderers when they don't.

    I'm really hearing you. Then again the very fact, just known, something were to happen to her that the whole wrath of every journalist would be on their heads.

    What's this "WE" stuff.
    You post only RUSSIAN GOVT sources. RT, Sputink, theduran, and fort-russ.

    Those Subversive websites are trying to sow Discord here.
    And I'm sure are grateful for your ongoing help.

    Russia, OTOH, is a Banana Republic: "A Gas station masquerading as a country."

    9 months in to the Presidency of your beloved Drumpf and you are all still waiting and longing to see handcuffs and orange jumpsuits on the people of the previous administration. You will be waiting a very long time.

    People think we are all nuts for thinking this way. Already we have groups who are subverting free speech not only in the public domain but also through the media. The omission of the truth is just another way to subvert free thought. Disarming the population gives the government the power. Eliminating the physical currency and all credit cards by replacing it with artificial intelligence via the internet and your smart phone gives the power of the purse to those who control the flow of money. These are all goals of the globalists. Even socialist's will realize what monsters they helped create.

    Well yes, and that's rather the point. They are so very obviously corrupt to the core and yet everyone fully expects them to get away with it because justice cannot touch high level rich and powerful and extremely well connected Democrats, period. So . . . it . . . goes. Banana anyone?

    It's amazing that the Clintons , and the Obamas, almost pulled it off again. Her loss, and the subsequent and much needed investigations, demonstrate that the American people eventually got it right.

    Roman's probably thought after Caesar was killed they had a chance to get the Republic back for awhile. After some time they gave up on the idea, most just trying to make a living.

    I'd say we're somewhere between complacency and apathy with close to 1/2 the country in some type of dependency.

    So you'd prefer news to only be from the west's mainstream media's reportage would you, and not get an alternative view on things? Just as well we don't all think like that, otherwise with only a dumbed down population and no section of the thinking population who are intelligent enough to generate argument and challenge, the self-serving western elitists and globalists would get their way on all aspects of our lives and well-being!

    The presstitute western media have done far more harm to the citizens of the US than the Russian media could ever do. Our media is completely controlled by the powers that be.

    Not quite well apparently... Especially since she had to suck up Putin's cut weapons deals with Saudi Arabia which she long been labeling as US proxy... Sucked up so good that her cheeks collapsed big time... Lol...

    And there is a great deal of Discord encouraged by the Left who want to erase US history, turn Blacks against White (and the Police), make every sporting event a political event, use violence to discourage free speech, attack the president with schoolyard taunts and non-substantive issues only in order to create an air of negativity.

    Their crusade against the USA is working and the Left is gobbling it up.

    “The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one, perhaps, of the Right and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea acceptable only to doctrinaire and academic thinkers. Instead, the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can ‘throw the rascals out’ at any election without leading to any profound or extensive shifts in policy” (Georgetown University Professor Carroll Quigley, Tragedy and Hope, 1966.)

    But in reality, you would have a hard time finding two people who agree on anything. And certainly 535 would never agree on everything. Quigley sounds a bit detached from what humans are.
