Gramsci, Alinsky & the Left

by

“Socialism will triumph by first capturing the culture via infiltration of schools, universities, churches and the media by transforming the consciousness of society” – Antonio Gramsci

“The old world is dying, and the new world struggles to be born; now is the time of monsters” – Antonio Gramsci

“Every State is a dictatorship” – Antonio Gramsci

Our nation has been pushed inexorably towards the left for decades. Has this been caused by a simple evolutionary process – a normal outcome of a wealthy and successful society falling into middle age? Or does it have some deeper cause – a more active agent of change?

This question seems to of particular relevance today as the Cultural Wars have broken open – Progressives in near-hysteria, protests ongoing. Watching these events unfold I am reminded of a simple truth.

The present always has a past.Continue Reading

Reversal of Fortune

by

It’s hard to know where to start.

How to put things in perspective? So very much has changed in such a short space of time. Even when it was so very long in coming.

The financial markets have responded to Trump’s election with a thunderous roar of approval. The equity markets have been on fire  – the Dow Jones is up 5% for the week and closed at a new high. Bonds got rocked with the yield rising to 2.12% on the 10-year Treasury in anticipation of future economic growth and inflation (bear in mind the Fed’s target rate for inflation is 2% – some inflation is healthy). Investors are cheering the prospects of actual economic growth – along with an end to the perpetual Federal Reserve quantitative easing – that comes with tax cuts, a fiscal stimulus plan and…regulatory rollback. There is the very real possibility that we will get a repeal of the truly awful Dodd-Frank Act.Continue Reading

Glenn Simpson’s Fusion GPS Editorial Failure

by

On December 30, 2017, the New York Times ran a story claiming that drunken remarks made by George Papdopoulos  – NOT the Trump Dossier – led to the opening of the FBI Investigation into Russia-Trump.

Their story was widely criticized.

Andrew McCarthy wrote a strongly worded article that tore into the NYT’s narrative. The folks at theconservativetreehouse put together an excellent Twitter thread that was sent directly to NYT’s Maggie Haberman, exposing the many flaws inherent in the article. I wrote about flaws in the article as well.

Yesterday, the Times decided to double-down on their claims, this time running an Op-Ed, The Republican’s Fake Investigation, by Glenn Simpson and Peter Fritsch – the founders of Fusion GPS.Continue Reading

Barr’s DOJ Signals Willingness to Act on Politically Charged Cases

by

AG reportedly assigns US attorney to review Ukraine information on Biden; DOJ disputes Stone sentencing recommendation

On Feb. 9, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said during an appearance on CBS News’ “Face the Nation” that he intends to call witnesses regarding the many problematic issues surrounding Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) abuses that were highlighted in the Department of Justice Inspector General’s report.Continue Reading

Lindsey Graham’s FISA Revelation

by

An unlikely source has been at the forefront of discoveries surrounding the DNC’s Russia-Trump Narrative. Senator Lindsey Graham.

Yeah. I know… But it’s true nevertheless.

And Senator Graham just confirmed what many of us have been saying for some time.

The Trump Dossier, created by Fusion GPS, was used by the DOJ/FBI to obtain a FISA Warrant to spy on the Trump Campaign.Continue Reading

McCabe’s Firing, Comey’s Contradiction & Outside Prosecutors

by

Attorney General Jeff Sessions formally fired Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe on Friday, March 16, 2018.

From Sessions statement:

After an extensive and fair investigation and according to Department of Justice procedure, the Department’s Office of the Inspector General (OIG) provided its report on allegations of misconduct by Andrew McCabe to the FBI’s Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR).

The FBI’s OPR then reviewed the report and underlying documents and issued a disciplinary proposal recommending the dismissal of Mr. McCabe.  Both the OIG and FBI OPR reports concluded that Mr. McCabe had made an unauthorized disclosure to the news media and lacked candor − including under oath − on multiple occasions.Continue Reading

An Interesting Interview with Rod Rosenstein – Revisited

by

Note: In light of Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein’s upcoming House Judiciary testimony on December 13, 2017, I thought it worthwhile to re-visit a post from August 2017 regarding an interview Rosenstein gave to Chris Wallace.

I hope you find his interview as interesting as I did.

The FBI recently created a new counter-intelligence unit to specifically target leakers. As noted by Attorney General Jeff Sessions on August 4, 2017:

I directed my Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and FBI Director Christopher Wray to oversee all classified leak investigations and actively monitor the progress of each and every case.Continue Reading

The Clinton Dossier Disclosures

by

The Washington Post reported yesterday that Hillary Clinton, her campaign and the DNC were officially behind the funding of the Trump Dossier.

For this reporting, say a big thank you to Devin Nunes.

The Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee – a Republican Representative from California’s San Joaquin Valley – has been aggressively pursuing the false allegations and disinformation campaign put forth by Democrats.

It started with finding evidence of Obama’s surveillance of President Trump – see, Devin Nunes, Classified Intelligence and Schiff’s Political Pretense.

But is was a July 27, 2017 letter – actually two letters – that really brought things to lightContinue Reading
