SAME OL’, SAME OL’ JOE BIDEN
BUILDING
THE GLOBALIST PARTY’S SWAMP OF CORRUPTION
https://mexicanoccupation.blogspot.com/2020/12/joe-biden-builds-his-swamp-signed.html
In the end of November, Biden tapped Obama-era officials for top
national security and economic roles -- the same people who were one of the
main reasons why it was Trump and not Hillary winning over the White House.
Fox News’ Murdochs Backed Clinton Foundation, Hillary Clinton
For too long, viewers have been fed a false bill of goods.
The controlling shareholders of Fox News, the Murdoch family and its 89-year-old patriarch Rupert Murdoch, have a long history of backing Democrats like Hillary Clinton and their liberal causes.
After four years of fairly critical coverage of President Trump (Fox “confirmed”, for example, a skepticism-inducing report that Trump called fallen soldiers “suckers and losers,” a claim that even Trump foe John Bolton denied,) many conservatives are re-evaluating Fox News’ true commitment to “fair and balanced” media.
Federal election records show that Murdoch has donated to far-left Democratic politicians including John Kerry, Ted Kennedy, Chuck Schumer, Anthony Weiner and even Hillary Clinton, for whom he hosted a fundraiser in 2006, just preceding her first presidential campaign.
Reporting on the fundraiser, CBS News’ Dan Collins, exclaimed that “Rupert Murdoch Loves Hillary Clinton.”
But it does not stop there.
FAIR, a liberal media group, even bragged about how much Fox News (through its parent company News Corp.) was donating to Hillary Clinton during her 2016 campaign against Trump. FAIR wrote:
“All of the broadcast giants are on board. Clinton is the largest individual recipient of campaign donations from Comcast (NBC News, MSNBC), Time Warner (CNN), News Corp (Fox News), CBS Television and Walt Disney (ABC News).”
No longer viewed as a stalwart of conservative causes, the Murdochs, including Fox News, have been moving to the left for years coinciding with the Democratic Party’s cementing itself as the party of the global elite.
The Murdochs and News Corp. have been big donors to the Clinton Foundation, an organization that includes progressive activists George Soros, Haim Saban and many other left-wing billionaires. They have given literally millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation.
Worrisome to conservatives should be New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd’s assertion that after Rupert Murdoch passes, his son James, a strong liberal who has opposed Trump, will join with his left-leaning two sisters in controlling the family’s vast media empire, including Fox.
James and his wife Kathryn, considered a liberal power couple, are multi-million-dollar donors to Democratic candidates and causes. In this election cycle, alone, they wrote a check for $1 million to try to help Chuck Schumer and the Democrats win the Senate.
At long last, longtime Fox viewers are finally grasping the magnitude of the organization’s ideological shift, at the behest of President Trump’s awareness campaign.
However, in actuality, this shift has been taking place for years.
Glenn Beck, a mainstream and popular conservative commentator tossed from Fox’s evening line-up, said he was prohibited from criticizing George Soros on his show.
His claim was perhaps demonstrated as true this past September, when Fox News hosts cut off former Speaker Newt Gingrich, after he started discussing Soros funded initiatives.
The transcript of that exchange was eerie and further portrays Fox News’ true political allegiances:
"I'm not sure we need to bring George Soros into this," said co-host Melissa Francis.
"I was going to say you get the last word, Speaker," Fox host Harris Faulkner said.
"He paid for it. I mean, why can't we discuss the fact that millions of dollars..." Gingrich said before co-host Marie Harf responded.
"No, he didn't. I agree with Melissa. George Soros doesn't need to be a part of this conversation," Harf said.
"OK. So, it's verboten [to talk about Soros]," Gingrich replied.
"OK. We're going to move on," Faulkner said.
The inclusion of this transcript herein is not an attempt to peddle an erroneous Soros conspiracy theory. Rather, it is merely meant to illuminate that Fox News may be prohibiting criticism of one the most prolific radical left-wing donors in this country’s history. Why? Perhaps because they are sympathetic to the liberal causes he so intensely supports.
Soros, apparently, is not the only topic of discussion barred from Fox’s airwaves. Long-time Fox contributor Dick Morris stated that “Fox always tried to tell [him] never to criticize China when you’re on our air. [He couldn’t] believe the censorship that goes on [there].”
President Trump, never one shy to criticize news outlets, has made his determination about Fox News’ credibility.
Shortly, after the election, he tweeted:
@FoxNews daytime ratings have completely collapsed. Weekend daytime even WORSE. Very sad to watch this happen, but they forgot what made them successful, what got them there. They forgot the Golden Goose. The biggest difference between the 2016 Election, and 2020, was @FoxNews!

Speaking of the election, Fox put a lifelong Democratic political operative, Arnon Mishkin, in charge of their election night “call” desk.
Prior to election night, Mishkin had “been skeptical of Mr. Trump’s chances on social media and in occasional Fox appearances.”
Mishkin is a lifelong Democrat, who voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016, and built his career working exclusively for liberal politicians.
The unsurprising result of Fox’s decision to have Mishkin calling the shots was seen on election night, when Fox News viewers were outraged to see the network refuse to call Florida for Trump, a state he won handily, while they were the first to call Arizona -- a much tighter affair -- for Biden.
Fox News’ swing to the left started long before Mishkin’s controversial Arizona call on election night.
For years, anchors like Neil Cavuto and Andrew Napolitano have derided and repeatedly criticized President Trump’s (often mainstream conservative) policies and proposals. Indeed, the Chris Wallace’s 2020 smug presidential debate moderation was one of the most bewildering and decried moments leading up to election day.
As ratings amongst its viewers continue to evaporate, it is obvious these blips are the result of a larger ideological shift within the Fox News Organization.
Today, instead, President Trump himself is encouraging his followers to tune in to Newsmax TV and OANN.
Fox News’ long-held monopoly over GOP politics has been fraught with risk and posed great danger to conservatives. For too long, viewers have been fed a false bill of goods.
Just ask Donald Trump about it.

Clinton Body
Man: Bill
Visited Pedophile Island, Had Affairs During Obama Admin
Wed Dec 2, 2020
Doug Band was
Bill Clinton's body man, but that doesn't fully describe it. For a while, Band
essentially ran Clinton's life. He's also created with the Clinton Global
Initiative which turned into the infamous Clinton Foundation.
Except that
Jeffrey Epstein also claimed credit for it.
Band built
Clinton Inc. into a huge international
enterprise. And then got forced out by Chelsea Clinton.
(Chelsea is probably the heroine in this story.) Epstein had Band's name in his
little black book and Band had flown on the Lolita Express. But now Band has some unhappy
tales to tell about the Clintons.
Most of these
tales have to do with how much Band gave up for the Clintons and how Chelsea
cut him out. Frankly, who cares. But it's the Epstein stuff that is getting
people's attention.
Clinton made
more than two dozen trips on Epstein’s jet around this time, Epstein’s flight
logs show. In January 2003, according to Band, Clinton visited Epstein’s
private Caribbean island, Little St. James. Band said it was one of the few
trips he declined to go on in his time with Clinton. A Clinton spokesperson
said the president had never been to the island and provided detailed
travelogue entries of the period in question that did not contain a visit.
Except that the
Clintons have been lying about Bill's
travels on the Lolita Express for a long time.
Former
President Bill Clinton was a much more frequent flyer on a registered sex
offender’s infamous jet than previously reported, with flight logs showing the
former president taking at least 26 trips aboard the “Lolita Express” — even
apparently ditching his Secret Service detail for at least five of the flights,
according to records obtained by FoxNews.com.
Clinton’s
presence aboard Jeffrey Epstein’s Boeing 727 on 11 occasions has been reported,
but flight logs show the number is more than double that, and trips between
2001 and 2003 included extended junkets around the world with Epstein and
fellow passengers identified on manifests by their initials or first names,
including “Tatiana.” The tricked-out jet earned its Nabakov-inspired nickname because
it was reportedly outfitted with a bed where passengers had group sex with
young girls.
Band, who seems
to have plenty of ties to Epstein is now trying to associate Chelsea with
Ghislaine Maxwell, which at this late date can't help be anything but spite,
but he does have a few grenades to throw.
Band told
Clinton that he believed he was allowing Chelsea to destroy Band’s reputation
because, deep down, Clinton was guilty for the pain his infidelities had caused
the family. Then Band said the unsayable: If Clinton wanted to have
girlfriends, he should divorce Hillary and move on with his life. “It’s the
honorable and right thing to do,” Band recalled saying. Clinton listened in
cold silence, biting his lower lip.
That's in 2011.
Gabriel Sherman
doesn't seem to keen on nailing down the details of just what Band is saying
here, but it sounds like Bill Clinton was still cheating on Hillary during the
Obama administration and previously when Hillary Clinton was in the Senate.
Consider the
timeline here. The 2012 election is coming up. Once Obama secures a second
term, Hillary moves to begin her campaign planning for 2016.
Having this
leak would have been bad for Hillary's political plans.
Sherman doesn't
follow up on the obvious question here. But this is the media. And even though
the Clintons are toast, and even though this whole piece is damaging to the
Clintons, he never actually clarifies what Bard is alleging.
Clinton gang insider spills sleazy secrets, savages Chelsea
It begins. With no prospect of Bill or Hillary
Clinton resuming high office, one former key insider of the Clinton Machine is
spilling his guts and telling very unflattering stories about the family business.
Doug Band, who began as a White House intern, moved on the become “body
man” and then key aide, went on to mastermind the post-presidency enrichment of
the Clintons and (not incidentally) himself. But around 5 years ago,
there was a great falling-out, predictably mostly about money, and now he has
unburdened himself from various sleazy secrets of the Clinton empire with a
series of interviews that has resulted in long article in Vanity
Fair authored
by Gabriel Sherman.
I urge you to read the whole thing if you are
interested in finally hearing some of the dirt that was such a
huge part of the family of grifters that moved from Arkansas to the nation’s capital. But if you are in a
hurry, The UK Daily
Mail and
the New
York Post select
pieces of gossip to focus on, with Brit paper highlighting Bill’s sabotage of
Hillary’s 2008 presidential campaign and Chelsea’s suck-up to Ghislaine Maxwell
to obtain access to yachts and cool homes, while the NYP focuses on Band’s
rivalry with Chelsea and his disparagement of her abilities and her trading in
her name.
Nobody comes out looking good here, which is
exactly what one would expect from this bunch of crooks and schemers. Copyright concerns
prevent me from excerpting as many sections as I would like. I will focus on
Chelsea because if there is to be a future to a Clinton political dynasty,
Chelsea will be the standard-bearer.
In
the spring of 2011, Chelsea Clinton, then 31, became vice chairman of what
would be the renamed Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton Foundation. After
a peripatetic career that included stints at McKinsey, a hedge fund, and NBC
News, it was as if she had finally claimed her birthright as heir to the family
dynasty. (snip)
Clintonworld
sources told me that Chelsea grew to resent Band. “Chelsea hated Doug because
he was like a son to her father,” a Clinton friend said. Band took offense that
Chelsea treated him at times like hired help. It was a combustible mix that was
about to explode into personal grievance. “As a board member, Chelsea had a
responsibility to ask questions about Foundation activities she didn’t
understand or had reservation about. For some reason, Doug seemed to resent
that,” a Clinton spokesperson said.
Around the time
Band launched Teneo in June 2011, Chelsea summoned Band and his cofounder
Declan Kelly to the Clinton office in Harlem. Band walked in to find Bill
flanked by Chelsea and her husband, financier Marc Mezvinsky. According to
Band, Chelsea said Band’s $2.5 million offer to put her dad on Teneo’s advisory
board wasn’t enough. She wanted Band to give her and Mezvinsky an ownership
position in Teneo. To Band, it felt like a shakedown. “I thought she was
kidding or deeply sick,” he told me. Band looked across the table at Bill, but
he sided with Chelsea. Band refused to give up an equity stake. The meeting
ended badly. A Clinton family spokesperson denies that Chelsea asked for equity.
(snip)
Chelsea
heard from foundation officials that Band was “hustling” donors to become Teneo
clients behind Bill’s back. Band heard that she accused Band of planting a Page
Six item about troubles in her marriage, which he denied. Band, meanwhile, told
foundation staff that Chelsea was vastly underqualified to be in charge. He
found it especially galling that Chelsea accused him of cashing in on his
Clinton connections when, in his view, Chelsea benefited far more from her
famous last name. He told people she got paid $1.2 million by NBC, not $600,000
as was reported. She had a driver, security, a $10 million apartment, a wedding
that cost $5 million, and traveled on private planes. “Every job she received
was based on her name,” Band said, still vexed. “Mine was based on my
reputation, experience, and what I had done.” (A Clinton spokesperson denied
Chelsea was paid $1.2 million by NBC.) (snip)
Chelsea had ties
to Epstein and Maxwell, Band said; he showed me a photo of Bill and Chelsea
posing with Epstein and Maxwell at the King of Morocco’s wedding. Chelsea
remained friends with Maxwell for years after the press revealed Maxwell was a
close associate of Epstein’s. For instance, Chelsea invited Maxwell to her 2010 wedding at the
Brooke Astor estate in Rhinebeck, New York, after Epstein had pleaded guilty in
Florida to procuring sex from a minor.
“Ghislaine had
access to yachts and nice homes. Chelsea needed that,” Band told me.
A Clinton family
spokesperson said Chelsea was on friendly terms with Maxwell because of a
mutual friend (Gateway computer founder Ted Waitt) and only took one yacht trip
with Maxwell in 2009: “It wasn’t until 2015 that Chelsea became aware of the
horrific allegations against Ghislaine Maxwell and she hopes that all the
victims find justice. Chelsea was friendly with her because of Maxwell’s
relationship with a dear friend. When that relationship ended, Chelsea’s
relationship with her ended as well.”
In late October
2011, Band instructed Bill Clinton’s office to bar Maxwell from all
Clintonworld events as a way of driving a wedge between Maxwell and Chelsea. “I
knew in telling everyone to stop including Ghislaine that Chelsea and her
father would be very angry. It made it harder for them to justify being close
to her,” Band said.
But keep in mind that omerta still
governs many of the more central schemers in the Clinton machine, because they
made peace with the Obama Machine, and now have or aspire to insider roles in
what they assume will be a Biden presidency. People like John Podesta and Rahm
Emanuel. I suspect most of them will go to their graves before they tell the
truth.
