I am now convinced that the Oligarchy that rules America intends to steal the presidential election. In the past, the oligarchs have not cared which candidate won as the oligarchs owned both. But they do not own Trump.

Most likely you are unaware of what Trump is telling people as the media does not report it. A person who speaks like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYozWHBIf8g&app=desktop is not endeared to the oligarchs.

Who are the oligarchs?

—Wall Street and the mega-banks too big to fail and their agent the Federal Reserve, a federal agency that put 5 banks ahead of millions of troubled American homeowners who the federal reserve allowed to be flushed down the toilet. In order to save the mega-banks’ balance sheets from their irresponsible behavior, the Fed has denied retirees any interest income on their savings for eight years, forcing the elderly to draw down their savings, leaving their heirs, who have been displaced from employment by corporate jobs offshoring, penniless.

—The military/security complex which has spent trillions of our taxpayer dollars on 15 years of gratuitous wars based entirely on lies in order to enrich themselves and their power.

—The neoconservartives whose crazed ideology of US world hegemony thrusts the American people into military conflict with Russia and China.

—The US global corporations that sent American jobs to China and India and elsewhere in order to enrich the One Percent with higher profits from lower labor costs.

—Agribusiness (Monsanto et.al.), corporations that poison the soil, the water, the oceans, and our food with their GMOs, hebicides, pesticides, and chemical fertilizers, while killing the bees that pollinate the crops.

—The extractive industries—energy, mining, fracking, and timber—that maximize their profits by destroying the environment and the water supply.

—The Israel Lobby that controls US Middle East policy and is committing genocide against the Palestinians just as the US committed genocide against native Americans. Israel is using the US to eliminate sovereign countries that stand in Israell’s way.

What convinces me that the Oligarchy intends to steal the election is the vast difference between the presstitutes’ reporting and the facts on the ground.

According to the presstitutes, Hillary is so far ahead that there is no point in Trump supporters bothering to vote. Hillary has won the election before the vote. Hillary has been declared a 93% sure winner.

I am yet to see one Hillary yard sign, but Trump signs are everywhere. Reports I receive are that Hillary’s public appearances are unattended but Trumps are so heavily attended that people have to be turned away. This is a report from a woman in Florida:

ORDER IT NOW

“Trump has pulled huge numbers all over FL while campaigning here this week. I only see Trump signs and sickers in my wide travels. I dined at a Mexican restaurant last night. Two women my age sitting behind me were talking about how they had tried to see Trump when he came to Tallahassee. They left work early, arriving at the venue at 4:00 for a 6:00 rally. The place was already over capacity so they were turned away. It turned out that there were so many people there by 2:00 that the doors had to be opened to them. The women said that the crowds present were a mix of races and ages.”

I know the person who gave me this report and have no doubt whatsoever as to its veracity.

I also receive from readers similiar reports from around the country.

This is how the theft of the election is supposed to work: The media concentrated in a few corporate hands has gone all out to convince not only Americans but also the world, that Donald Trump is such an unacceptable candidate that he has lost the election before the vote.

By controllng the explanation, when the election is stolen those who challenge the stolen election are without a foundartion in the media. All media reports will say that it was a run away victory for Hillary over the misogynist immigrant-hating Trump.

And liberal, progressive opinion will be relieved and off guard as Hillary takes us into nuclear war.

That the Oligarchy intends to steal the election from the American people is verified by the officially reported behavior of the voting machines in early voting in Texas. The NPR presstitutes have declared that Hillary is such a favorite that even Repulbican Texas is up for grabs in the election.

If this is the case, why was it necessary for the voting machines to be programmed to change Trump votes to Hillary votes? Those voters who noted that they voted Trump but were recorded Hillary complained. The election officials, claiming a glitch (which only went one way), changed to paper ballots. But who will count them? No “glitches” caused Hillary votes to go to Trump, only Trump votes to go to Hillary.

The most brilliant movie of our time was The Matrix. This movie captured the life of Americans manipulated by a false reality, only in the real America there is insufficient awareness and no Neo, except possibly Donald Trump, to challenge the system. All of my life I have been trying to get Americans of all stripes—academics, scholars, journalists, Republicans, Democrats, right-wing, left-wing, US Representatives, US Senators, Presidents, corporate moguls and brainwashed Americans and foreigners—out of the false reality in which they exist.

In the United States today a critical presidential election is in process in which not a single important issue is addressed by Hillary and the presstitutes. This is total failure. Democracy, once the hope of the world, has totally failed in the United States of America. Trump is correct. The American people must restore the accountability of government to the people.

    It boggles the mind:

    http://www.atimes.com/us-backed-jihad-and-the-stamping-out-of-syrias-christians/#

    Soon after 9/11, how did the US manage to turn the War on Terror into War with Terror?

    By taking down Hussein — a mass killer tyrant who at least clamped down on global-terrorists — , the US effectively turned Iraq into a haven for terrorists.

    And though Gaddafi had dabbled in terrorism — though no more than Israel or Saudis — , he kept terror under control in Libya. NATO’s removal of him turned Libya into haven for terrorists.

    And Syria… US and Saudis backing terrorists against a secular tolerant(relatively speaking) regime.

    But the US media go along with crazy policy. But then, the US media are into officially sanctioned information-terrorism that blows up the truth.

    Imagine coyotes are killing the livestock, and something has to be done about it. So, people go hunt the cougars(that kill the coyotes), and the coyotes increase in number.

    US used 9/11 as excuse to carry out Wars for Israel, and this mainly entailed the destruction of modern secular Arab nations by turning them into a hotbed of civil strife and Jihadis.

    It was War with Terror masked as War on Terror all along.

    9/11 might as well be called Lyin’/11

    It’s a good thing we have the freedom to post at https://www.unz.com right now. In three month’s time, it may well be deemed “illegal” under Presidential Decree 2017/01: Banning of “hate speech” on the Internet.

    NPR, probably.

    I’m aware you refer to the Texas elections, and at the same time the sentence feels unclear. Link or two could help.
    (I don’t follow mass media, and many people only briefly glance over msm news. )

    Your gripe is with media and elite bias, not democracy. There will always be such bias regardless of your governing model.

    You get to pick between right wing or left wing bias. The neutral, fair society is a myth that has never existed, and will never exist. The left understands this, and only pretends to be fair and neutral while not believing in any of it and pushing their agenda. How about you?

  5. Who are the oligarchs?

    PCR left out the most onerous oligarchs in the US, the leaders of the federal protected class groups.

    The leaders in the US of federal protected class groups are the same people that lead the same scheme in Israel, secular Jews.

    Secular Jews are the primary financers and ideological leaders of both the US and Israeli protected class groups.

    The US democrat party is the primary front for their ideology in the US, and the Israeli Labor Party is their analogous ideological front in Israel.

    Secular Jews act as vote brokers for the protected groups, using biased mass media propaganda and pay-offs in terms of undue government entitlements to lure protected class people to vote for their selected candidate for public office.

    Here’s a listing of protected class groups in the US:

    African American, Alternate Lifestyle, Asian, Disabled, Hispanic & Latino, Jewish, Native American, Women

    Collectively, protected class people comprise over 95 percent of voters in the US, and over 80% of Israeli voters.

    Israel allows diaspora Jews to vote in Israeli national elections, effectively making the number of protected class voters in Israel closer to 90% .

    Obama has lobbied to add middle eastern and north African (MENA) people to the list as yet another federal protected class group.

  6. @Jason Liu

    Your gripe is with media and elite bias, not democracy.

    The 9th and 10th constitutional amendments are supposed to put significant brakes on democracy at the national level.

    The 2-party system ignores the real meaning of the 9th and 10th amendments because it doesn’t permit the tyranny they endorse and from which they profit, protected class supremacy.

    The 9th amendment says the people define civil rights, not the federal government.

    The 10th amendment says the state governments protect civil rights defined by the people, not the federal government.

    Practically all US political parties ignore the 9th and 10th amendments, excepting only the Constitution Party.

    “—Agribusiness (Monsanto et.al.), corporations that poison the soil, the water, the oceans, and our food with their GMOs, hebicides, pesticides, and chemical fertilizers, while killing the bees that pollinate the crops.”

    Name a fertilizer that is not a chemical. There is no proof that anything from your list is killing bees. Without the items in your list the price of food would increase tremendously.

    “—The extractive industries—energy, mining, fracking, and timber—that maximize their profits by destroying the environment and the water supply.”

    This is diametrically opposed to Trump’s view.

    You sound like a shithead liberal. You seem to be very conflicted.

    I doubt PCR is liberal. Let me ask you this: what is being sprayed into our atmosphere everyday, and why and under who’s say so? You can call it geoengineering or chemtrails, doesn’t matter.

    What researchers have learned is that it’s aluminum, barium and strontium. It’s in our air and falling into the soil and water, therefore, in our food. Even if you eat organic, you can’t get around it.

    It leads to neurological disease such as Alzheimers and Parkinson’s among others. Why is it happening and do you support it?

    The linked video is well worth viewing. It displays a seriousness which is omitted by MSM coverage of his campaign. After watching it I looked up his background and found this:

    http://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/donald-trumps-immigrant-mother

    The article is anodyne enough but it seems that his mother hailed from a tiny settlement (Tong/Tunga, on the NE coast of the Isle of Lewis) where the Taliban would have seemed too liberal (said from experience, I visited there in the 1990s and even after 25 or more years of access to TV etc it was like “the land that time forgot ” so goodness knows what it was like in Mary Anne MacLeod’s formative years). My guess is that he was imbued with some, at least, of her core values and that is the threat he poses to what he repeatedly refers to as the “Establishment “, a term commonplace in the UK since the 1960s.

    Genocide of native Americans? When did this happen? I see them little buggers all over in casinos

    @Paul C.

    “It leads to neurological disease such as Alzheimers and Parkinson’s among others. ”

    There is no proof of that. Citation?

  12. David says:

    “All of my life I have been trying to get Americans of all stripes out of the false reality in which they exist.” PCR is always loudly applauded by himself.

    Yet, PCR’s reality filter admits as incontrovertible evidence — no doubt whatsoever as to its veracity — an overheard conversation in a Mexican joint reported by some other woman that he knows… personally!
