Trump rescinds pledge to support GOP 2016 nominee...

Game on. I have never seen anything like the attacks on Republican front-runner Donald Trump by the GOPe, many conservatives, democrats and the mainstream media. They are terrified their cushy worlds will be turned upside down when Trump wins. It's like Trump poked a hornets nest with a stick. He doesn't need their money and the elites that control this country are terrified they will lose their power. Could you have imagined a year ago the GOP front-runner, a man who has brought a ton of new voters into the party, would be called a clown, bigot, conman, misogynist, racist, and a Hitler wannabe? And that was often by fellow Republicans. Trump has had as much as $150 million in negative campaign ads run against him by his opponents and their SuperPacs and they and the media now claim he can't win in November because his negatives are too high. Doh! Trump has been threatened with prosecution for inciting a riot in spite of the fact his supporters have never rioted. Now, they have charged his campaign manager with simple battery in what has to be the lamest charge I have ever seen. Party leaders and several other candidates are actively and openly plotting to thwart the will of the voters at the July convention and give the nomination to someone who didn't get the most votes. If that happens, the Republican Party is finished. Trump should form a 3rd party and take his supporters with him.

Via Politico:

Donald Trump has rescinded his pledge to support the Republican nominee for president.
“We’ll see who it is,” he said Tuesday during a CNN town hall.
He said he had been treated “unfairly” by the Republican National Committee and the GOP establishment. He said he was unsure whether the Republican establishment was plotting to take the nomination away from him during the convention in Cleveland.
He also said he didn’t need Cruz to promise to support him should Trump win the nomination.
“I’m not asking for his support,” Trump said.

Senate GOP leaders claim they want to wait until 2017 to replace Justice Antonin Scalia

Have they finally found their balls?

Via Washington Times:

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Saturday that the Senate should wait until a new president is elected to confirm a replacement for Justice Antonin Scalia, whose sudden death Saturday shook Washington and threatened to reshape the 2016 presidential race.
Democrats said that with 11 months left in Mr. Obama’s tenure, the Senate has enough time — and indeed an obligation — to confirm a replacement.
Mr. McConnell, though, said voters must be given a say in the matter, and that means picking a president who will nominate the replacement.
“The American people‎ should have a voice in the selection of their next Supreme Court Justice. Therefore, this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new president,” the Kentucky Republican said in a statement.
And Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Charles E. Grassley, who controls the committee schedule for handling nominees, likewise said he supports deferring until next year, saying Mr. Obama has already turned the courts into a political battleground, so voters should be asked to referee.

Fox News Poll: Trump leading and steady, Carson and Cruz up...

Jeb Bush is the big loser...

Via Fox News:

Businessman Donald Trump still leads the field for the Republican nomination.  He gets 25 percent among GOP primary voters.  He was at 26 percent before the debate.  Trump’s support among women went from 24 percent two weeks ago to 21 percent now.  He mostly held steady among men (28 percent).
The real-estate mogul maintains his first-place status despite also being judged in the poll as having the worst debate performance and being considered the least likeable Republican candidate.  More on that later.
The August 6 Republican presidential debate was hosted by Fox News Channel in Cleveland.  Several of the exchanges at the debate remained in the news for days after.
Next in the GOP race is Carson, who garners 12 percent.  That’s up five percentage points since the debate and puts him in double-digits for the first time since mid-June.  Cruz captures 10 percent, up four points.

Fail: WH blames Amtrak derailment on GOP not funding infrastructure. Train speed was over 100 in a 50 mph curve...

Josh Earnest would apologize if he had any character, but he doesn't. 

Via National Journal:

Calling the Amtrak train derailment a “horrific incident,” White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said investment in upgrades to the rail system’s infrastructure remain important to the administration. And President Obama, he said, has long advocated for Amtrak investments that would “benefit the traveling public.”
But Earnest was quick to note in his press briefing Wednesday that congressional Republicans have blocked such investments in the past.
“Unfortunately we have seen a concerted effort by Republicans for partisan reasons to step in front of those kinds of advancements,” Earnest said, noting that the cause of the crash is still under investigation, and it’s unclear whether infrastructure problems were involved.

Senate Republicans Prove Again There Is No Change Since The Party Base Put Them In The Majority

BREAKING: Loretta Lynch confirmed as US attorney general, in 56-43 Senate vote

— Fox News Politics (@foxnewspolitics) April 23, 2015

Here are the names of the 10 RINO's who voted to confirm Loretta Lynch as Attorney general. So, how is this different than if Harry Reid was still Majority Leader?  I guess Mitch McConnell is enjoying the bigger office as he plans to do the same things Harry Reid would. McConnell even voted to confirm Lynch.

Sens. Kelly Ayotte (N.H.), Thad Cochran (Miss.), Susan Collins (Maine), Jeff Flake (Ariz.), Lindsey Graham (S.C.), Orrin Hatch (Utah), Ron Johnson (Wis.), Mark Kirk (Ill.), Rob Portman (R-Ohio) and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky) joined Senate Democrats in approving her nomination.

For his next betrayal, Mitch is planning on continuing funding Obamacare subsidies if SCOTUS strikes them down. 

The legislation, offered by Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI), one of the most politically vulnerable Senate incumbents in 2016, would maintain the federal HealthCare.gov subsidies at stake in King v. Burwell through the end of August 2017.
The bill was unveiled this week with 29 other cosponsors, including Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and his four top deputies, Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), John Thune (R-SD), John Barrasso (R-WY) and Roy Blunt (R-MO). Another cosponsor is Sen. Roger Wicker (R-MS), the chairman of the conference’s electoral arm…

Don't give any of these traitors, the Republican Party or any of their organizations or PAC's any money between now and 2017. If you think you know a candidate who isn't in a Washington insider or in the pocket of the Chamber of Commerce, fund them. Good luck.

Change: GOP led Senate allows more votes in three weeks than Harry Reid did in all of 2014...

In spite of several hundred bills passed by the GOP led house dying in Harry Reid's inbox, the mainstream media paints Republicans as obstructionists and the 'party of no.' The lack of journalistic integrity is astounding.

Via WFB

…Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell took the time to point out that in three short weeks there have been more votes done this year than in all of 2014 when Senator Harry Reid and the Democrats had control.
The lucky bill to receive the fifteenth vote? The Keystone XL Pipeline bill.

RNC trims 2016 presidential debates to nine...

I would have given them all to Fox News.

Via Hot Air:

Fox gets three (two on Fox News, one on Fox Business), CNN gets two, and CBS, NBC, ABC, and CNBC get one apiece. MSNBC gets some magic beans. Of note: The NBC debate will be co-sponsored by Telemundo and will be held in Florida in February 2016, shortly before the primary. If Jeb Bush is still in the race by then, that’s his time to shine. Lotttt of pressure on McConnell and Boehner, meanwhile, to do something on immigration reform by then so that the remaining GOP candidates have something to tout to Latino voters tuning in.
If this seems like conspicuously fewer debates than we’re used to after the last two presidential cycles, that’s because it is. And there’s a reason for it.

House Republicans surrender to Obama's amnesty proposal, plan to trick their base supporters...

Jonathan Gruber isn't the only one who thinks you are stupid. The House GOP thinks so too...

You people are being played by the GOP. Remember when the GOP wanted to raise the debt ceiling, but claim they would oppose it. They voted to raise it, but then Congress could vote to stop the raise. The President could then veto the stoppage and the debt ceiling would raise. But the GOP could claim they opposed him.
That is happening again. This time it is with amnesty.
The House GOP is going to pass a continuing resolution to fund the government. Then, in January, they will try to defund what they’ve already funded. The President will veto it, but the GOP can say they tried.
They won in a historic wave election against the President with a majority of the public on their side on this issue and they are going to cave.
Already, the House Appropriations Committee has released a statement saying the appropriations process cannot stop the President.

Lois Lerner: Some GOP are "crazies" and "assholes"

I am pretty sure she was referring to the Tea Party and other conservatives...

WASHINGTON (WJLA/AP) - A former IRS official at the center of the agency's Tea Party controversy referred to some right-wing Republicans as "crazies" and "assholes" in emails released Wednesday. A key GOP lawmaker says the remarks show that Lois Lerner was biased against conservative groups and targeted them for extra scrutiny.

Continue reading

Lerner headed the IRS division that handles applications for tax-exempt status. In a series of emails with an associate in November 2012, Lerner made two disparaging remarks about some members of the GOP, including one remark that was a profane characterization.

Rep. Dave Camp, who chairs the House Ways and Means Committee, released the emails Wednesday as part of his committee's investigation. The Michigan Republican says the emails show Lerner's "disgust with conservatives."
In one email, Lerner called some conservatives crazies. In the other, she called them "assholes." The committee redacted the wording to "_holes" in the material it released publicly, but a committee spokeswoman confirmed to the AP that the email said "assholes."

Businessman David Perdue beats Rep. Jack Kingston in Georgia GOP Senate runoff

Voters really are anti-Washington this year. It doesn't bode well for incumbents facing tough challenges in November.

Via FOX News:

Businessman David Perdue narrowly defeated 11-term Rep. Jack Kingston Tuesday in a Republican runoff election for Georgia's U.S. Senate nomination, setting up a general election race against Democrat Michelle Nunn with national implications.
With all precincts reporting, Perdue led Kingston by approximately 8,500 votes out of over 480,000 cast.
Perdue's victory validates the former corporate CEO's campaign as an outsider. The former CEO of Reebok, Dollar General and the failed textile firm Pillowtex, Perdue offered his private sector record and tremendous wealth as proof that he can help solve the nation's ills in a Congress largely devoid of experienced business titans. He spent more than $3 million of his own money blasting Kingston -- and other primary rivals before that -- as a career politician, including one ad depicting his rivals as crying babies.
"If we want to change Washington, then we've got to change the people we send to Washington," he would say as he met voters.
