Long term Russian interference: Before and after 2016 elections the Russian internet trolls sowed discord.
After the 2016 election, Russian trolls opposed Trump– writing posts that Trump is not a legitimate President. So we learn today from Facebook lawyers testifying about Russian manipulation of Facebook via political ads.
One Russian firm — Internet Research Agency — churned out 80,000 (80 K) posts on Facebook from Jan. 2015 through August 2017. “Most of these posts and ads are deeply disturbing” says Facebook General Counsel Colin Stretch. “Coming from foreign actors using fake accounts is simply unacceptable.”
Internet Research Agency pits groups against other groups. Â
Per the WSJ Oct. 31 2017, Facebook, Google and Twitter will divulge new details showing the scope of Russian backed manipulation both before and after the 2016 elections.
Twitter and Google testify Nov. 1 2017 in front of the House and Senate intelligence committees which are conducting probes to uncover what happened during the campaign for President.
Lawyers for Facebook testify that Russians sought to de-legitimize the Trump Presidency after the elections.
So how does this square with mainstream media’s narrative for this past year of collusion by Trump with Russia? It does not square.

Freedom NOWÂ from ObamaCare!
Americans are not stupid. They can make informed choices.
Let people choose their doctors and their health plans.
What to do? Legalize competition across state lines. That will drive premium costs down.
Give ObamaCare no money via the Exchanges. Let people opt out totally. Let small businesses create their own collectives. Encourage Health Savings Accounts with families making the decisions how to spend their health dollars.

Phil Gramm, Republicans, Stand up for Health Freedom WSJ, Oct. 19, 2017
“President Trump has now created another such opening for compromise by announcing he will end ObamaCare’s cost-sharing payments to insurers. Without a constant injection of additional money, ObamaCare premiums will spiral upward, and the number of Americans who benefit from the program will continue to fall.
But the initial bipartisan bill, offered by Sens. Lamar Alexander (R., Tenn.) and Patty Murray (D., Wash.), is more of a capitulation than compromise. It resuscitates ObamaCare but hardly provides a fig leaf for Americans who want their health-care freedom back—the very people who elected Republicans.
“Any agreement to restore funding for cost-sharing payments should be tied to provisions allowing families to opt out of ObamaCare and buy coverage that meets their individual needs. The compromise should also grant insurers the right to sell such plans independent of ObamaCare’s rules and its rigged risk pool.
“A money-for-freedom compromise would at last provide an opportunity to debate health-care freedom, something the public was denied by the great ObamaCare lie. If Democrats refuse to allow ObamaCare’s losers to escape in return for funding for the program’s beneficiaries, it will be Democrats who let the program collapse. Throughout the debate they will be forced to argue against the very health-care freedom they falsely promised when they adopted ObamaCare.”

Three issues: immigration, taxes and health care. Looks like the “swamp” still runs Washingon D.C. The alligators are strong.
And the world keeps getting less safe in so many ways…. Las Vegas with 50+ dead and 500 sent to hospital. So sad. So terrible.
Trump stumped for a physical  Wall to control illegal immigration, he wants to reduce taxes on the middle class and Trump wants to repeal Obama-Care.
Where are we?
So far, 10 months into his Presidency, Trump  can’t seem get much done on any of these three issues. The ‘swamp’ [big time donors, the ‘establishment’ of both Democrats and Republicans] oppose Trump’s stance on all 3 issues.
Remember Hillary? Hilary opposed a Wall, wanted a single payer system of health care and said she wants to soak the rich – but who knows really what her policies would have been on taxes.
Freedom for the little guy. The small business. The lemon juice stand. People who want to start a business or grow one. How can we help to increase freedom?
And how can people safely go to a Country Western concert and just ‘hang out’ with friends listening to music that heals them? How do we as a People heal …?

CNN anchor JAKE TAPPER: Congresswoman, Attorney General Sessions said he was recusing himself from the matter but obviously played a leading role in the firing of Comey, he’s playing a leading role in the hiring of his replacement. Do you have concerns about that?
REP. STEPHANIE MURPHY (D), FLORIDA: Absolutely I do have concerns about that. We know that  Attorney General Sessions recused himself because he had had contact with Russian government officials and I’m somebody who has had one of the highest clearances in this country and I know that —
TAPPER: You used to serve at the Pentagon.
MURPHY: That’s correct.And I know that there’s no such thing as appropriate contact with a hostile foreign government, and so he’s recused himself from the Russian investigation. I don’t believe that he should be involved in selecting the FBI director. We need to have somebody who is beyond reproach in that position.

A maudlin moment by Obama:
Latest who gets Medal of Freedom: Â Joe Biden
Matt Lauer  (so we hear)  was in tears when Barack Obama awarded Joe Biden the Presidential Medal of Freedom in a surprise ceremony Thursday.
“I’m glad there were no cameras in my apartment yesterday because I was just sitting there weeping,†Lauer said Friday morning on the “Today†show. “I just burst out crying when I saw that moment.â€
†It was incredible.
——————————
Oh C’mon Matt buck up it’s only another cheap political move like Obama getting the Secy of Defense to give him an award. Little kids and merit badges huh?

If Hilary wins, then more costly  ObamaCare comes  our way.  If  Trump, then ObamaCare  can  be — likely will be —  thrown out.
If Trump wins, illegal immigration  can be controlled.  A recent poll shows that Hispanics overwhelmingly want illegals sent home.
What about the “Deplorables” which Hilary says make up half of Trump’s support.   Hilary may express regret about her remarks, but  how  will Hilary’s “Deplorables” vote?
Hispanics and immigration:  Per a poll released today,  Hispanics want laws enforced and illegals sent home.  So  — as one might surmise, Hispanics ‘get it’ that opening the flood gate to illegals hurts  plenty of USA born people looking for minimum wage jobs.
Blacks vote as a bloc for Obama/ Hilary?  Will the young Blacks do the bidding of Michelle Obama who tells them “Just vote Democrat.”  One young Black woman interviewed said that she was not staying on the Plantation as Michelle Obama tells her.  This young black woman refuses to vote Democrat just because Michelle Obama tells her to.

Yes, it is time to pray. Pray for America.   Every day.  Especially right now.  This election matters more than any other election  in the last 30+  years.
There’s a movement that we all pray at the same time. Â Here in CA that’s at 6 pm for one minute. Â Let us all pray at the same time.
Pray for America. It really is a miracle that a country like America actually exists.
A place where tyrants do not rule with impunity.  A place where people can dream and realize those dreams.  A place where people are treated with dignity.  Look around the world and ask yourself  —  where else is there such freedom? Liberty?
People come here to America — legally and illegally  —  for freedom.  And other reasons , i.e., such as  getting a job so they can send home money to family living all over the world.
We must preserve what America stands for:  freedom, liberty and that one law applies to all persons whether  Hilary Clinton or a person working in the agriculture fields of California or Florida.
For too long the Washington DC Â elite have run America. Â Now there is a chance for renewal. Â There is a real chance that middle America will be heard.
More than any other US election in 30 years — this election matters.  An outsider  — Donald Trump — appears to have a good chance.
Through The Clinton Foundation Hilary Clinton — using her private email server — has sold access to herself should she become President.  If elected, Hilary Clinton will be the first President  ever elected who faces criminal charges.  Is this someone you really can vote for and support?
Look at your life. Â How has America helped realize your dreams? Â Pray that the America that offers freedom and liberty will continue.

Pray for God’s grace to continue to guide this nation. Â Yes, pray.
