The elections have been rigged since the founding of political parties.

The best evidence is the network bias of the corporate sponsored media to a 2 party system. They own the media networks, control the debates and exposures, the polling stats, and what you hear or see about a candidate in the media to base an opinion on.

With citizens united and unlimited cash flowing to the campaigns from corporations controlling the narrative for one candidate or the other of the two parties, and a third party unable to play in this over priced political arena, it can't be considered anything but rigged!

Sure, we are given a choice, but our choices are selected for us. One party or the other, never allowing anyone outside the 2 party system the ability to be seen or heard (due to the price of admission to media coverage).

Case in point..... look what the DNC did to Sanders (an Independent running on the Dem ticket) and the RNC did to Ron Paul (a Libratarian running on the Rep ticket)

And then there are the electoral colleges..... either Rep or Dem.... but they are non-partisan

And they wonder why people stay home

Clinton’s Former Employer, LaFarge, Faces Allegations of Funding ISIS

LaFarge CEO Frederic Jolibois may have negotiated with ISIS in order to continue doing business in Syria

Between 1990 and 1992, Clinton served on Lafarge’s Board of Directors. “Shortly before Bill Clinton was elected president in 1992, Lafarge was fined $1.8 million by the Environmental Protection Agency for pollution violations at its Alabama plant. A year later, the Clinton administration reduced that fine to less than $600,000,” reported The Washington Post in 2007. While Clinton served on the board for Lafarge, the company was embroiled in controversy over its use of hazardous waste to fuel its U.S. cement plants.

You must have respect for anyone who runs towards trouble while everyone else is running away from it. I do. While some few may dishonor whatever uniform they may wear their numbers are not in the majority and should not be the examples used to condemn their service as a whole.

Over 30 years with the agency doesn't sound like someone who got out because it wasn't his cup of tea or things weren't going his way

You think being under the gun of the alphabet agencies is something anyone looks forward to? That it's some kind of profitable or retirement career change for the better?

What rock have you been living under?

Yep. The ATF never lies and always complies

Great track record right along with the justice dept, especially under Holder and his Fast and Furious debacle just to name one.

Of course there was Waco, Ruby Ridge and so many other good examples of their compliance with the law..... as they see it

Standing in line at the Goldman Sachs, BofA lobbyist window on their way to fund raise at Monsatan and the Big Pharma stock holders meetings.

The Military Industrial Complex window is always open!

Hillary is at the head of all lines!

The point of a whistleblower is to expose the illegal or unlawful acts of a given group or person. It is only upon the commission of these acts that a person exposing them can gain that title.

Those acts become a breach of contract to any "oath" they may have sworn in accepting that position, therefore a whistleblower is in his right, under law, to expose them! That is abiding by their oath, not breaking it!

America was founded by such people!

A certain amount of govt is necessary to protect the rights of the people. It was never meant (in a Republic) for the govt to control. They are elected to act and fulfill the wishes and protect the rights of the "governed", NOT control them!

Within a Republic even the smallest voice has a vote, is born with certain unalienable rights, and among them are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Nowhere does it state that you swear an oath to govt! You swear to uphold the laws of the Constitution, to protect and defend them.

When govt breaks those laws it becomes the sworn duty of the governed to oppose, expose, and take any and all actions allowed under the law to correct it up to and including (sadly) rebellion or revolution against it.


The Declaration of Independence: A partial Transcription

IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.

The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
**************

An oath of office is an oath or affirmation a person takes before undertaking the duties of an office, usually a position in government or within a religious body, although such oaths are sometimes required of officers of other organizations. Such oaths are often required by the laws of the state, religious body, or other organization before the person may actually exercise the powers of the office or any religious body. It may be administered at an inauguration, coronation, enthronement, or other ceremony connected with the taking up of office itself, or it may be administered privately. In some cases it may be administered privately and then repeated during a public ceremony.

Some oaths of office are a statement of loyalty to a constitution or other legal text or to a person or other office-holder (e.g., an oath to support the constitution of the state, or of loyalty to the king). Under the laws of a state it may be considered treason or a high crime to betray a sworn oath of office.
************************

I don't see anywhere where it says an oath is to a govt! It actually states everything to the contrary!

But again, the USA is a Republic, NOT a Monarchy, a Democracy, or an Oligarchy

Just another cog in Oblowme's efforts to destroy "The Great Satan", the crown jewel of the infidels that is so hated by those of Islamic faith.

I am not against their right to worship, only their wish to impose it on others! Their rights end where mine begin

Of course for the Dems it always a boost in electoral votes in certain states

So you place an oath to govt over an oath to a nation, its laws and its people?

Are you a communist, socialist, or just a fascist in general under whatever banner a govt calls itself?

My USA is a Republic with its power resting in the hands of its people, NOT its govt!

So anyone who exposes the unintended or unlawful use of govt power in action or deed are the ones to be prosecuted or persecuted instead of those who commit the unlawful acts they expose?

No wonder our nation is so phucked and some (like the Clintons, Lois Lerner, the banksters who created the crash, the alphabet agencies, and the POTUS himself) think themselves above the law! With logic like that it's no wonder such criminals are never brought to justice

Some consider their oaths to the nation, its laws and Constitution, and "we the people" more binding than their oaths to a govt participating in criminal acts against it!

Thank goodness! Because our corporate controlled media has failed us by killing true journalism and replacing it with partsan propaganda which can be purchased by the highest bidder!

If you've read any of the Binney statements you would know that the reason for his departure and then the blacklisting of him that followed it, was because of what it "became" under the control of the govt alphabet agencies and the lawyers who then interpreted the laws in a secret FISA court to fit its unlawful use as a "domestic" spying apparatus against American citizens as well and not just those of foreign sources it was intend for.

As it was written was never illegal or immoral, but that can't be said for what it became under control of the govt

Typical.... just as a the invention of an alternate power source became the A-Bomb and rocket science became nuclear missles

The Justice Department throws Kerry and Obama under the bus

As a follow-up to its bombshell that the Obama administration airlifted $400 million in cold, hard cash to Iran — a fancy workaround of Iran’s barriers to using the dollar and other international currencies — comes this from the Wall Street Journal:

Senior Justice Department officials objected to sending a plane loaded with cash to Tehran at the same time that Iran released four imprisoned Americans, but their objections were overruled by the State Department, according to people familiar with the discussions. . . .

The timing and manner of the payment raised alarms at the Justice Department, according to those familiar with the discussions. “People knew what it was going to look like, and there was concern the Iranians probably did consider it a ransom payment,’’ said one of the people.

This is in accord with critics of the deal who asserted this was a ransom arrangement that will induce more hostage-taking. (“[Justice officials’] concerns show that even within the Obama administration there were worries that the pallets of cash could send the wrong signal to Iran—and potentially to others—about U.S. policy when it came to hostages.”) It is even more galling considering the administration provided “intelligence assistance to a U.S. family as it tried to buy the freedom of an American aid worker in Pakistan.” Our policy of not paying ransom to terrorists is now in tatters.

Clinton Foundation drug contracts intersected with State Department work

Amid renewed scrutiny of the Clinton Foundation's foreign ties this week, Hillary Clinton pointed to the success of its low-cost contracts with pharmaceutical firms in a rare acknowledgement of her family's controversial nonprofit network.

The Democratic nominee, who has not held a press conference in 242 days and is selective about the media interviews she grants, seldom encounters questions about the Clinton Foundation despite the outsize role its past dealings have played on the campaign trail.

Clinton denied on Sunday that she participated in any foundation activities while she served as secretary of state, employing a new defense of its operations by highlighting the negotiated healthcare deals.

But under her leadership, at least a handful of the State Department's global health efforts relied on drug companies that were also major Clinton Foundation donors in arrangements that raise questions about the distance Clinton kept from her family's philanthropy.

Transplanting Bruce Jenner's balls on the POTUS didn't help that pu$$y at all! Still can't man-up enough to negotiate any kind of deal, trade or otherwise, without an apology and a payment of some kind that does nothing for the USA but make us look weak and shameful.

Other countries laugh as we cut our military to afford putting more people on food stamps, bankrupt our citizens and small business with a high cost socialist healthcare system that is unsustainable, and penalize and rob the wealthy for being successful to pay for it while they are being told "you didn't build that".

What Oblowme hasn't been able to destroy of our nation in 8 years, Hitlery would finish in under 4!

NSA Whistleblower: Agency Has Hillary's Deleted Emails

Hillary Clinton claims that Russia hacked the Democratic National Committee's emails to help Donald Trump in the 2016 race, but a NSA whistleblower disagrees with her assertion.

Former NSA official William Binney, an architect of the agency's surveillance program, says that it is more likely that a disgruntled member of the U.S. intelligence community leaked the emails.

On "Fox and Friends" this morning, Binney said that accusing the Russians is a way of diverting attention from the actual issues that the emails bring to light.

Judge Nap Blasts Obama Admin for 'Reprehensible,' 'Lawless' Stockpiling of Gun Owner Info

Judge Napolitano explained that the government is supposed to gather that information for statistical purposes only, and they are mandated to destroy identifiable information such as names and addresses.

The report from the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO), however, found that the ATF is not adhering to that policy.

"Congress decided that since the states regulate guns - not the federal government - the federal government would never be able to keep a list of every gun owner and every gun owned by that person," Judge Napolitano said. "But they are."

Understanding that will explain the Dem stance on Sanctuary Cities and refugee placements

Few understand the total rigging of the system we live under and any who seek to educate are CT or fringe in press and social media.

Control the money, control the press, and the people will follow wherever you lead them

Dude, can't read the date on a headline?

I think it's only 23 states that require "picture" ID to vote and another 11 or so that require some sort of ID, but other states you can pull a piece of junk mail out of the garbage as long as there is an address on it and register to vote that day with it (if I have the figures right)

Some states have mail-in ballots you can pick up anywhere and fill out a dozen and mail them in. They never get qualified until after the election but are counted when processed

But all that has little to do with the electoral votes that decide elections!

The article only said it was "implied" by interpretation. After all, he was addressing "illegals"

But without the requirement of voter ID voter fraud is inevitable
