    Guys, I have some stuff to post, but it isn’t PG, it isn’t even R. It is serious, horrible, worse than you can imagine stuff regarding the Hillary campaign. If you don’t want me to post links here, I understand.

    If you’ve been following r/the_donald at all, you may have already seen them.

    Let me know if you want me to spill it here or not.

    Heard on local radio news Thursday afternoon that voter turnout in Detroit is expected to be down significantly. Much less enthusiasm in the black community for Hillary than for Obama.

              It’s both growing and becoming more openly practiced.

              It was growing when, 20 years ago, the UN had New Age Transcendental Meditation rooms, and branches pushing this practice. TM had to rename itself after it became known that it was actually Satanic. Now it’s Mindfulness. Next decade they’ll either have to rename it again, and jump back into the shadows, because of the taint of the name, or else just come right out and say “Satanic Meditation”.

              I’m guessing, at this rate, they’re just going to open right up about it.

              But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart and he would not listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the LORD had said to Moses. __Exodus 9:12

              I have always wondered about this verse. God hardened Pharaohs heart? Perhaps people remove their conscience so far from their soul that there is a natural spiritual hardening of the heart.

              Every soul longs for God, does the soul long more for God when it is in a void or when it is full of God?

              If a person willfully and maliciously turns from God the soul still yearns for God but maybe the malformed conscience tells the soul that it is better to be filled with a false God, Satan and in doing so invites that evil within itself.

              May God have mercy on the world.

      BREAKING: Comey Mandates All FBI Agents Report to D.C. Offices; Prep for Raids, Possible Arrests in Clinton Probes

      FBI Director James Comey issued a mandate late Thursday instructing all available special agents from the Washington D.C. field office and Hoover Building headquarters to report to work immediately, federal law enforcement sources told True Pundit.

      “We’re preparing for many arrests from the top down,” the FBI source said. “I cannot elaborate beyond that.”

      When pressed to better define what “from the top down” meant in terms of possible suspects, the source refused to elaborate.

      “You’re a smart guy; read between the lines,” the source said.

      Based on case protocol, the FBI is either preparing to conduct sweeping search warrants in the Clinton Foundation investigation or ready to start arresting suspects. Or both. If a grand jury has been convened by the Justice Department since Comey’s decision to re-open the Hillary Clinton case last week, then the FBI could make arrests if indictments were handed down by Thursday (yesterday). If not, it is more likely FBI agents are being amassed for multiple simultaneous raids on suspects’ homes and businesses to secure warrant-backed evidence.

      Will search warrants be served on Friday? Based on FBI protocol, Friday raids are unorthodox in cases not involving kidnappings or investigations where human lives are at risk. Preparation for wide-scale raids can take 48 hours or more, depending on how many targets are in play.

      The Clinton investigation has reached a fever pitch this week fueled by alarming new allegations first unveiled on Wednesday by True Pundit. New revelations from newly-recovered Clinton emails, according to law enforcement sources, implicate the Democratic presidential candidate, her subordinates, and even select elected officials in far more alleged serious crimes than mishandling classified and top secret emails, sources said. NYPD sources linked to the probe said these new emails include evidence linking Clinton herself and associates to:
      •Money laundering
      •Child exploitation
      •Sex crimes with minors (children)
      •Perjury
      •Pay to play through Clinton Foundation
      •Obstruction of justice
      •Other felony crimes

      Documents and emails released late Thursday by Wikileaks substantiated certain allegations of child exploitation linked to the Clinton Foundation; with Hillary as secretary of state and President Bill Clinton acting as a United Nation’s special envoy to Haiti after its devastating 2010 earthquake.

          For me getting Trimp elected and the Clintons convicted are goals, I won’t be celebrating until the mission – restoration of a Constitutional democratic republic – has been completed.

            I think we’re on the same page. However, you need to celebrate milestones. If you don’t celebrate milestones with your team, your team will lose site of the end-of-mission goals. Those goals will seem further and further away, and impossible to reach.

            Don’t celebrate the job being done. Celebrate making progress, making a difference. It is part of the baby steps. Keep morale high while sternly facing into the wind. Beaten down, low morale troops don’t win fights, no matter how well equipped and trained.

            Remember the wise words of John Madden, or Yogi Berra (can’t ever remember). 90% of the game is half mental.

    Judicial Watch: New Benghazi Email Shows DOD Offered State Department “Forces that Could Move to Benghazi” Immediately – Specifics Blacked Out in New Document

    http://www.judicialwatch.org/press-room/press-releases/judicial-watch-new-benghazi-email-shows-dod-offered-state-department-forces-that-could-move-to-benghazi-immediately-specifics-blacked-out-in-new-document/

    Judicial Watch today released a new Benghazi email from then-Department of Defense Chief of Staff Jeremy Bash to State Department leadership immediately offering “forces that could move to Benghazi” during the terrorist attack on the U.S. Special Mission Compound in Benghazi, Libya on September 11, 2012. In an email sent to top Department of State officials, at 7:19 p.m. ET, only hours after the attack had begun, Bash says, “we have identified the forces that could move to Benghazi. They are spinning up as we speak.” The Obama administration redacted the details of the military forces available, oddly citing a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) exemption that allows the withholding of “deliberative process” information.

    The newly released email reads:

    From: Bash, Jeremy CIV SD [REDACTED]
    Sent: Tuesday, September 11, 2012 7:19 PM
    To: Sullivan, Jacob J; Sherman, Wendy R; Nides, Thomas R
    Cc: Miller, James HON OSD POLICY; Wienefeld, James A ADM JSC VCJCS; Kelly, John LtGen SD; martin, dempsey [REDACTED]
    Subject: Libya

    State colleagues:

    I just tried you on the phone but you were all in with S [apparent reference to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton].

    After consulting with General Dempsey, General Ham and the Joint Staff, we have identified the forces that could move to Benghazi. They are spinning up as we speak. They include a [REDACTED].

    Assuming Principals agree to deploy these elements, we will ask State to procure the approval from host nation. Please advise how you wish to convey that approval to us [REDACTED].

    Jeremy
