THE RESULTS OF IOWA CAUC– — — USES

MegynKellyThe results of the Iowa caucuses held on February 1, 2016 surprised many people, but most of all the elections surprised the celebrity billionaire businessman Donald Trump. Pollsters predicted he would win by a sizable number for several weeks. In all the recent polls a day or two before the first contest of the 2016 presidential elections, Trump was leading Senator Ted Cruz from Texas by several points.

Donald Trump had received wall-to-wall coverage by liberal and conservative media since he entered the presidential race as a Republican, after having been a Democrat most of his life. Pollsters predicted he would win by a sizable number. Many in the media thought he would be “unstoppable.” Trump was so confident that he would easily win that after FoxNews refused his demand to exclude its moderator Megyn Kelly of the Republican debate, the billionaire businessman skipped the debate. Many in Iowa apparently did not like that.

Megyn Marie Kelly was born on November 18, 1970. She is a journalist and former attorney who is a political commentator on the FoxNews television channel. As of 2014, Kelly hosts The Kelly File every weekday in the evenings from the network’s New York City headquarters.

 

 

Senator Ted Cruz wins in Iowa

48445084.cachedMany Republicans participated in the Iowa caucuses. The total GOP turnout topped 184,000 voters, shattering the previous record of roughly 121,000 caucus voters four years earlier.

Senator Ted Cruz led the Republican field with 28% of Republican caucus voters, followed by Donald Trump with 24% and Senator Rubio with 23%. Senator Cruz’s unexpected victory was a remarkable turnaround for a candidate who was behind in the polls in Iowa.

The Texan senator generated his highest levels of support in Iowa from the most conservative caucus voters, according to an entrance poll conducted by various news organizations. Senator Cruz also performed well among evangelicals and Republicans who said he shared their values.

Rafael Edward “Ted” Cruz was born on December 22, 1970. His father was born in Cuba. Ted Cruz was elected to the Senate in November 2012. Senator Cruz is campaigning as an anti-establishment Republican candidate.

In his victory party in Des Moines, Iowa, Senator Cruz told his supporters the following: “Tonight is a victory for the grass roots. Tonight is a victory for millions of Americans who have shouldered the burden of seven years of Washington deals run amok.” The Texas senator had a superb grass roots organization in Iowa. He campaigned in the 99 counties of the state.

Another surprise was how well Florida Senator Marco Rubio did in Iowa. He was behind in the polls yet almost came second in the Iowa caucuses.

Senator Rubio’s late strong surge will increase interest in his candidacy and increase the pressure on less-viable Republicans to drop out of the race, such as former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee did after the Iowa caucuses. Huckabee announced on Twitter that he was withdrawing from the presidential race. It appears that there are three viable Republican presidential candidates and the Florida senator, a center right conservative candidate, is a clear alternative to Senator Ted Cruz and Donald Trump.

In his victory party in Des Moines, Iowa, Senator Rubio stated the following to his cheering supporters: “For months, they told us we had no chance. Tonight, here in Iowa, the people of this great state sent a very clear message.” Senator Rubio said his campaign took “an important step towards winning this election” after ending third in the Iowa caucuses behind Ted Cruz and Donald Trump.

Patrick O’Connor and Janet Hook wrote an article titled “Ted Cruz Beats Donald Trump in Iowa’s GOP Race” which was published in the Wall Street Journal on February 2, 2016. The reporters explained that the Iowa results set the stage for a series of high-stakes showdowns in the weeks ahead between Donald Trump and Ted Cruz as well as with Florida Senator Marco Rubio. Rubio’s appeal as a general-election candidate was good enough for a late surge that nearly defeated Donald Trump.

O’Connor and Hook wrote that Cruz and Trump had attacked each in the run-up to Iowa, setting up for a more bitter battle to follow in the next primaries. The reporters said that “Trump has picked fights with rivals, major media organizations and party leaders in Washington, frequent skirmishes that have allowed him to dominate news coverage and drown out other Republicans with more typical resumes.” They explained that “Trump’s often-incendiary campaign rhetoric has turned off some would-be supporters who otherwise appreciate his brash style.”

Unlike Senator Cruz and Senator Rubio, who each gave eloquent remarks in their victory parties, Donald Trump offered brief remarks, thanking his family and the state of Iowa before turning his attention to contests that follow. He said, “We loved New Hampshire, we love South Carolina.” Trump also said that he was going to buy a ranch in Iowa.

O’Connor and Hook explained that Trump will get a chance to re-establish himself in New Hampshire and other states where polls show him up ahead—although he had led in most Iowa polls before the caucuses began. The reporters pointed out that according to Stuart Stevens, the chief strategist on Mitt Romney’s 2012 presidential campaign, “These first four races are going to set the playoffs, to advance you need to do well in these first four.” Republicans may have to wait until the South Carolina primary on February 20, 2016 or possibly Super Tuesday on March 1, 2016 to get a clearer sense as to which candidates have the strongest claims on the nomination.

There is a great deal of anger, dissatisfaction, and frustration among Republicans regarding the way the federal government is working. Many conservatives dislike the Republicans in Congress who have been unable or unwilling to stop the radical agenda of the president and his constant violations of the Constitution.

Hillary Clinton barely wins the Iowa caucuses

Laura Meckler and Colleen McCain Nelson wrote an article titled “Hillary Clinton Beats Bernie Sanders by Slim Margin in Iowa” which was published in the Wall Street Journal on February 2, 2016. The reporters explained that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was declared the winner of the Iowa caucuses, barely surviving a surprisingly stiff challenge from Senator Bernie Sanders. The final results gave Mrs. Clinton 49.9%, and 49.6% to Senator Sanders.

Ignoring the fact that a communist mediocre senator almost beat her, Hillary Clinton declared an outright victory. She said in New Hampshire, “I am so thrilled that I’m coming to New Hampshire after winning Iowa,” Former Maryland Governor Martin O’Malley announced his withdrawal from the presidential race.

The communist Senator from Vermont continued to call for a political revolution and stated the following: “I think the people of Iowa have sent a very profound message. It’s just too late for establishment politics and establishment economics.”

Bernie Sanders was born on September 8, 1941 in Brooklyn, New York. In 1990, Sanders was elected to Congress, as a socialist, on a third party ticket. At the time, Bernie Sanders was a member of leftist Jesse Jackson’s National Rainbow Coalition. He served in Congress for 16 years before being elected to the Senate in 2006. Six years later he was reelected to the Senate.

The Marxist Senator Bernie Sanders, Independent from Vermont, almost won the Iowa caucuses and is currently ahead the in polls in New Hampshire by over 20 points over the very corrupt Hillary Clinton. The fact that an unaccomplished communist senator from Vermont almost won the Iowa caucuses and is ahead in polls in New Hampshire shows that Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign is in serious trouble, even though she still leads in national polls. The trend of all the polls clearly indicates that Hillary Clinton is losing support among Democrats. National polls indicate that most Americans think she cannot be trusted and that she is not honest due to her multiple scandals.

Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign is being hurt by a string of scandals, including her use of an illegal unsecured private server kept, in violation of federal law, in the baseman of her house. More than 1,340 emails that were received by Mrs. Clinton were classified as top secret, 22 of these are so top secret that they cannot be released. She also received SAP (Special Access Program) emails than less than 10 people are able to see them in the nation.

It is suspected that all of the top secret e-mails from the Department of State may have been hacked by the enemies of the United States. It does not help Clinton’s campaign that 150 FBI agents are conducting a criminal investigation on her mishandling of classified emails and corruption while serving as Secretary of State. It is believed that Mrs. Clinton traded favors to foreign governments and large corporations for tens of millions of donations to the corrupt Clinton Foundation and for well-paid speeches given by the couple.

Two Inspector Generals from the Intelligence Services and the Department of State said the former secretary of State may have mishandled top secret and classified e-mails. This is why support for Senator Sanders in spite of his communist background has surged around the country. Sanders has drawn misinformed crowds that are the envy of other candidates.

U.S. Officials stated that Hillary’s Emails Contain Names of Undercover CIA Spies

Hillary Clinton is being investigated by 150 FBI agents.

U.S. intelligence officials said “top-secret” emails Hillary Clinton kept on her private email server when she served in the State Department include the real names of CIA spies serving undercover overseas — a violation of federal law that has put the agents in harm’s way. John Schindler, a former National Security Agency analyst, of the Observer wrote that those emails also include the names of foreigners on the CIA payroll, possibly endangering their lives.

Schindler said the following: “At a minimum, valuable covers have been blown, careers have been ruined, and lives have been put at serious risk. Our spies’ greatest concern now is what’s still in Hillary’s emails that investigators have yet to find.” He also quotes a senior intelligence community official as saying the security breach is a “death sentence.” “If we’re lucky, only [foreign] agents, not our officers, will get killed because of this.”

The Observer report comes four days after the State Department said it was withholding 22 emails from Clinton’s server because they contained “top-secret” information, although the agency gave no hint about what that classified information was. The Observer stated the following: “The breach a clear violation of federal law, citing the Intelligence Identities Protection Act of 1982, voted into law following the murder of the CIA spy in Greece after his identity was disclosed in the media. CIA brass believe some or all or Clinton’s emails, which were kept on her home server and were apparently unencrypted, were intercepted by foreign powers.”

Obama may attempt a cover-up but the FBI may leak the information to the press on the multiple laws she has violated.

Communist Senator Sanders wants a political revolution and shakeup of the United States

When he arrived in Congress in 1991, Sanders co-founded the extreme radical Congressional Progressive Caucus. He served as chairman during its first eight years. The website of the Congressional Progressive Caucus used to play the Communist International song. Later, the communist song was removed to hide from the public the Marxist ideology of its members. Senator Barack Obama campaigned for Sanders in Vermont when he ran for the Senate since both of them share the same Marxist ideology.

Sanders’ communist and socialist connections

Trevor Loudon in his book The Enemies Within: Communist, Socialist and Progressive in the United States Congress (2013) pointed out Bernie Sanders’ communist and socialist connections. Trevor Loudon wrote that Sanders received the support of journalist I.F. Stone in 1988, a former secret Communist Party USA member and a Soviet agent in a letter endorsing Sanders congressional campaign.

Stone wrote the following: “Sanders is and on apologetics socialist… He has travel to Nicaragua to speak out against Reagan administration’s war and to establish a sister city relationship between Burlington and Managua, Nicaragua. More recently, he went to the Soviet Union to set up a sister city program with Yaroslavl. While socialism has a long and proud history America, extending back to the utopian experiments of the early 1800s, it has been a long time since we’ve had a socialist voice in Congress.”

Loudon explained that Sanders participated in the 1989 U.S. Peace Council national conference together with many communists who were followers of the agenda set by the Communist Party USA and the Soviet-controlled World Peace Council. Communist Mike Bayer strongly supported Sanders’s campaign for the Senate. Bernie Sanders has been a close ally of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and has been a regular speaker at their conferences. This organization is a major source fundraising for his campaigns.

Loudon wrote that Sanders has also been supported by the radical Council for a Livable World. The Council’s website endorsed Sanders for reelection to the Senate in 2012 and offered the following explanation: “Bernie, as is universally known, as the perfect record on the Council for a Livable World’s voting scorecard on key national security issues… He opposed authorization for war in Iraq went in the House and supported measures in both the Senate and the House to withdraw troop… He enthusiastically endorsed the New STAR treaty and will post all Republican attempts to cripple the agreement… He is committed to the elimination of weapons of mass destruction, opposes preemptive wars and works hard on these issues.”

Basically, this radical Council is praising Sanders for weakening our national defense, as President Barack Obama has been doing since he became president. Both Sanders and Obama have made the United States a weaker superpower and endangered our national security.

Bernie Sanders has been part of the socialist movement since his college days. Loudon pointed out that Sander joined the Young People’s Socialist League, the youth wing of the Socialist party USA during the time he was a student at the University of Chicago. He also worked for the communist-led United Packing House Workers Union.

Paul Sperry, a visiting Hoover Institution media fellow and author of many books, wrote an article titled “Don’t be Fooled by Bernie Sanders- he’s a Diehard Communist” which was published in the New York Post on January 16, 2016.

Sperry explained that as a self-described socialist, Senator Bernie Sanders looks more like a serious contender for the nomination for president of the Democratic Party. The liberal media elite has suddenly stopped calling him socialist. He is now cleaned up as a “progressive” or “pragmatist.” However, Sanders is not even a socialist. He is a communist.

In order to mainstream Sanders needs to whitewash his radical pro-communist past. It will not be easy to do. If Senator Sanders were nominated for a Cabinet post, he would never pass an FBI background check. There would be too many subversive red flags popping up in his file. Sanders was a communist collaborator during the height of the Cold War.

One has to remember that there is another Marxist who would have never passed an FBI or CIA background check. His name is Barack Hussein Obama. And he ended in the White House being the boss of the FBI and the CIA!

File:Eugene V. Debs, bw photo portrait, 1897.jpgEugene Victor “Gene” Debs (November 5, 1855 – October 20, 1926) was a communist union leader, one of the founding members of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW or the Wobblies). He ran five times for president as the candidate of the Socialist Party of America.

Sperry explained that Sanders produced a glowing documentary on the life of socialist revolutionary Eugene Debs, who was jailed for espionage during the Red Scare and hailed by the Bolsheviks as “America’s greatest Marxist.” This subversive Marxist hero of Sanders was denounced, even by liberal Democrats, as a “traitor,” attacked “the barons of Wall Street,” and hailed the “triumphant” Bolshevik revolution in Russia.

Debs was convicted under the Espionage Act of 1917 and sentenced to a term of 10 years. Republican President Warren G. Harding commuted his sentence in December 1921. Eugene Debs stated the following: “Those Russian comrades of ours have made greater sacrifices, have suffered more, and have shed more heroic blood than any like number of men and women anywhere on Earth. They have laid the foundation of the first real democracy that ever drew the breath of life in this world.” In a 1918 speech in Canton, Ohio, Debs reaffirmed his solidarity with Vladimir Lenin and Leon Trotsky, despite clear evidence of their role in the destruction of Russia and death of the tens of thousands. Senator Sanders still hangs a portrait of Eugene Debs on the wall in his Senate office.

Sanders took several “goodwill” trips not only to the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), but also to Cuba and Nicaragua where the Soviets were trying to expand their influence in the Western Hemisphere. In 1985, Sanders traveled to Managua, Nicaragua to celebrate the rise to power of the Marxist-Leninist Sandinista government. He called it a “heroic revolution.” Undermining anti-communist U.S. policy, Sanders denounced the Reagan administration’s backing of the Contra rebels in a letter to the Sandinistas.

Sperry wrote that Sanders lobbied the White House to stop the assistance to the anti-communist Contras and even tried to broker a peace deal. He adopted Managua as a sister city and invited Sandinista leader Daniel Ortega to visit the United States. He exalted Ortega as “an impressive guy,” while attacking President Reagan. Sanders stated in 1985 that “The Sandinista government has more support among the Nicaraguan people — substantially more support — than Ronald Reagan has among the American people.” Bernie Sanders also adopted a Soviet sister city outside Moscow and honeymooned with his second wife in the USSR. He put up a Soviet flag in his office, shocking even the Birkenstock-wearing local liberals. At the time, the Soviet Union was on the march around the world was threatening the U.S. with nuclear annihilation.

Sperry said that in 1989, as the West was on the verge of winning the Cold War, Sanders addressed the national conference of the U.S. Peace Council — a known front of the Communist Party USA, whose members swore an oath not only to the Soviet Union but also to “the triumph of Soviet power in the U.S.” Currently, Sanders wants to bring what he admired in the USSR, Cuba, Nicaragua, and other communist states to America.

Sanders proposed to completely nationalize our health care system and putting private health insurance and drug companies “out of business.” He also wants to break up “big banks” and control the energy industry, while providing “free” college tuition, a “living wage” and guaranteed homeownership and jobs through massive public works projects. The price tag: $18 trillion over 10 years.

Sperry stated the following: “Who will pay for it all? You will. Sanders plans to not only soak the rich with a 90% tax rate, while charging Wall Street a “speculation tax,” but hit every American with a “global-warming tax.”

Sperry concluded his article by stating the following: “What about those communist sister cities he adopted? Sanders and his Sandinistas are all still pining for what Debs called the Greater Revolution yet to come. What’s revolting is how this hardcore commie’s campaign has gotten this far. With his ascendancy in both Iowa and New Hampshire, Sanders is no longer just a fool; he’s now a dangerous fool. While it may be hard to hate the old codger, it’s easy — and virtuous — to hate his un-American ideas. They should be swept into the dustbin with the rest of communist history.”

This writer is convinced that such proposals are irresponsible and represent pure Marxist populism. The promises of Sanders’ plans are very similar to those made by Chavistas in Venezuela, the communist Podemos Party in Spain, and other Marxist political parties around the world. One has to look at the massive poverty in Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, and the countries in Europe that implemented generous social benefits that were economic unsustainable and now are almost bankrupt with very high unemployment.

Conclusion

As stated earlier, there is a great deal of anger, dissatisfaction, and frustration among Republicans regarding the way the federal government is working. Many conservatives dislike the Republicans in Congress, many of whom are deemed to be RINOS (Republicans In Name Only), who have been unable or unwilling to stop the radical agenda of the president and his constant violations of the Constitution. It appears that there are three viable Republican presidential candidates. They are Senator Ted Cruz, Senator Marco Rubio, and businessman Donald Trump.

It is a sign of present times that a self-declared socialist, who is a communist, Senator Bernie Sanders is doing well at the polls. Many young people who have graduated or are still in college have been influenced or brainwashed by socialist or Marxist secondary teachers and college professors. A poll taken by students recently revealed that the majority viewed the word “socialism” positive and “capitalism” negative.

If Sanders is elected president or if his agenda were to be implemented in the nation, the United States would be bankrupt very soon. This nation has a nearly $20 trillion federal debt, unfunded federal mandates, with the debt of the 50 states and territories and the counties and the cities, brings the real debt of the United States to approximately $150 trillion.

How could this country implement Sanders’ proposed programs? It would increase the total federal spending by about one-third—to a projected $18 trillion or so over 10 years. Sanders will try hard to radically restructure our beloved country into a communist society.

It is very revolting to this writer, who was imprisoned in Cuba during two terrible years for trying to overthrow the communist regime in Cuba at the Bay of Pigs in 1961, to see how this communist presidential campaign has come this far. It is sad that the party of Thomas Jefferson has a communist man running and a corrupt woman who has committed many crimes running for president.
