Op-ed:
Democrats Grasping at Straws
By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots on Right Side Patriots Radio

“
It's a big nothing-burger and a pre-debate attack intended solely to help Joe Biden."                                                  - Tim Murtaugh, a spokesman for Trump’s campaign

Oh dear...the Democrat-Socialist left is at it again as they're foolishly playing yet another round of “gotcha” with President Trump...guess they didn't learn their lesson with the Mueller Report and their cry for impeachment, which both thankfully were “shot to hell.” And the key player in this, their latest reincarnation of overt political skullduggery, is the uber liberal New York Times who this past Monday first reported in an article titled “Long-Concealed Records Show Trump’s Chronic Losses and Years of Tax Avoidance” that Donald J. Trump paid no federal income taxes for 10 out of the past 15 years due to his reporting losses greater than what he made, and that he only paid $750 to the federal government “the year he won the presidency” and “in his first year in the White House.”  

But what the authors failed to mention in the article is that in the years stated the tax code Trump paid on was the very tax code Obama and Biden had set into place...the very tax code he rightfully used to his advantage as all savvy businessmen would do. 


Seems like the left never learns for President Trump did not and will not take these or any other false accusations...fake news personified...lying down...nor should he for this is just another in a long succession of smear campaigns leading up to the election...an election the Democrats know they cannot win without unabashed, media not reporting on voter fraud being committed.  

And this latest brouhaha over President Trump's tax returns...returns still being dogged down under a seemingly unending audit by the IRS...goes way back to when private citizen Donald J. Trump first announced his candidacy for president for how dare he even try to run against Obama's personally chosen, defacto third term in office, puppet-string pulled candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton...and to do so as a Republican to boot. And this zeroing in on his personal finances has remained an ongoing point of contention for Democrats no matter the fact that no candidate for president is legally required to release their personal tax forms for any given year nor does the IRS have the legal right to release those forms to the public. And besides, whether Democrats like it or not President Trump has the same constitutionally given right to privacy regarding his personal tax returns that “We the People” have with ours...what with private information being protected by law from unauthorized disclosure.

Besides, President Trump did file when first running for president and he did so again as he's running for reelection, the Federal Election Commission's legally required 104 page “Personal Financial Disclosure” form...a form that while it shows his having investments in more than 550 different “entities” plus income from hundreds of different sources, said form rightfully does not show Trump's personal income nor does he have to swear it to be accurate under penalty of perjury. And yet the Democrats still seem to ignore the very fact that this disclosure form is quite different than one's personal tax returns...returns which while they do not include ones actual personal net worth still must include certain what's considered to be personal information...information such as one's personal income, taxes paid as well as the corresponding tax rate, deductions along with credits claimed, debts claimed, offshore assets, and charitable donations just to name a few, Also seemingly forgotten is that these returns are fully protected by law from unauthorized disclosure by the IRS except to personally “authorized agencies and individuals” that is. 

In more simplistic terms...it's none of the Democrats damn business nor anyone else's business for that matter as to what President Trump's personal wealth is or what he does or does not pay in his personal taxes. 

And so when this article concerning President Trump's tax forms was published this past Monday, Trump said during his daily press briefing that the claims reported in the article were “totally made up.” And I believe him for the article's authors tried to portray our president as a shady businessman who takes in hundreds of millions of dollars a year in earnings yet they claim racks up “chronic losses,” and that he “aggressively employs” personnel simply to avoid paying taxes. And this article went on to state that with “financial challenges mounting,” the supposed records they secured show that Trump depends more and more on making money from businesses that put him in “potential and often direct conflict of interest with his job as president,” yet none of those businesses were specifically named nor was the conflict they supposedly posed. 

So now we're left with fighting words for what these shamefully lying reporters do not say is that Donald J. Trump divested himself from most, if not all, of his private business dealings and holdings when first running for president so as to avoid any and all appearances of improprieties, and that he actually has no taxable income since becoming president because he has donated the sum total of his presidential salary to a number of different charitable organizations. In other words, President Trump is actually working pro-bono for both love of country and to better the life of “We the American People." 

But even these facts given cannot change the reality that the New York Times article is based solely upon lies and hearsay courtesy of “anonymous sources” the paper, as expected, refuses to disclose... “anonymous sources” who of course must be protected at all costs or so they say...“anonymous sources” who claim without any proof given that President Trump is personally responsible for debt and loans worth $421 million, and that said bill is soon coming due. And the article's authors also refuse to show Trump's attorneys any of the documents they claim to have in their possession...documents they alone say can substantiate their claims. Translation: without seeing any tangible proof first hand there really is no credibility whatsoever to the article's claims.  

And as expected and rightfully so, Trump's people are fighting back against this latest smear campaign specifically timed to take the magnifying glass off “dementia” Joe Biden and put it back onto Donald Trump. One case in point, as per Alan Garten, a Trump Organization attorney, President Trump "has paid tens of millions of dollars in personal taxes to the federal government, including paying millions in personal taxes since announcing his candidacy in 2015”...something I do believe. And that figure does not even include the taxes he paid to the state of New York nor to New York City...both some of the highest taxed areas in the country. 

In fact, the truth is that President Trump not only paid to the U.S. Treasury, $1 million in 2016 and $4.2 million in 2017, but that most all of what's referred to as “over-payment” was rolled forward not...I repeat...not...refunded. And the $750 figure the New York Times article cites refers to an additional $750. Translation: every report saying that Trump paid only $750 in taxes during the years in question is unabashedly lying. 

 

And the article's authors go even one step further into what I believe might actually meet the legal definition of “defamation of character” in regards to its alluding that President Trump was involved in questionable if not illegal dealings. And here I quote the authors, “Trump’s elaborate dance and defiance (this in regards to releasing his tax forms) have only stoked suspicion about what secrets might lie hidden in his taxes. Is there a financial clue to his deference to Russia and its president, Vladimir V. Putin? Did he write off as a business expense the hush-money payment to the pornographic film star Stormy Daniels in the days before the 2016 election? Did a covert source of money feed his frenzy of acquisition that began in the mid-2000s?"

Nasty unsubstantiated and defamatory alludings I'd say. 

Now here I have an important question for these three New York Times reporters...instead of you writing politically motivated untruths about our president why don't you write an article on the documented fact that your paper actually paid zero...yes...zero...federal income tax in 2017 on earnings of $111 million dollars. In fact, it's actually worse than that for according to Trump supporter and FedEx Founder and CEO Frederick W. Smith, whose company the New York Times wrote a scathing untruthful hit piece on, Smith issued not only a rebuttal but challenged the paper’s publisher and business editor to a debate about federal tax policy...which of course they refused then and still refuse now to do.

As per an article titled, “The New York Times shrugs off FedEx CEO’s ‘colorful’ challenge to a tax policy debate” and in Smith's own words,“[T]he New York Times paid zero federal income tax in 2017 on earnings of $111 million, and only $30 million in 2018—18% of their pretax book income. Also in 2018 the New York Times cut their capital investments nearly in half to $57 million, which equates to a rounding error when compared to the $6 billion of capital that FedEx invested in the U.S. economy during that same year.” 

Shows who's really pro-American and who isn't...show's who's really the committer of tax fraud now doesn't it. 

And I have one more question for these politically agenda driven reporters...why don't you instead of trying to defame and discredit our duly elected president write an in-depth expose on multi-billionaire Jeff Bezos...the man whose main company, AMAZON, amassed a staggering $232.9 billion in global revenue in 2018, and yet paid $0...yes $0...in taxes for the then second year in a row, and who still received a federal tax refund of $129 million in 2019. And while Bezo's did indeed have savvy tax attorneys who knew how to use the system to their advantage by legally securing a combination of tax credits, deductions, and loopholes to bring said tax bill down to zero, and even while AMAZON is this year paying taxes, that still doesn't make it right no matter that AMAZON spokespeople say they are “fulfilling the obligations that are legally required” and that they “follow all applicable federal and state tax laws."

That would make a way more interesting article to most folks still wheeling from the economic fallout from the Chinese caused COVID-19 pandemic than the New York Times overtly partisan driven vitriol that even a blind could see was nothing but a cleverly crafted hit piece to try and further discredit President Trump in the few weeks remaining before the election. After all, to Democrats grasping at straws, any and all lies told are more newsworthy and hence vote garnering than truth simply being omitted could ever be.

Op-ed:
For Donald...A Simple Strategy Worth Knowing
By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots on American Political Radio bit.ly/2cpXuRd

So it seems Hillary Clinton is salivating over Donald Trump's very bad week...a week where he lost focus of the issues and unfortunately chose to concentrate on a former Miss Universe turned ugly...ugly both inside and out...and now with the uber liberal, Hillary-loving rag The New York Times reporting on Trump's taxes from 21 years ago...a tax report questionably gotten I might add... the 'Butcher' is rubbing her hands together like an evil witch plotting to come in for the kill.

But what Hillary forgets is that most people really do not care what happened 21 years ago with someone's personal business dealings and taxes...most especially when no one was physically hurt. So here's a little bit of advice for Trump...sort of my little gift to him and his campaign...whenever Hillary brings it up at next Sunday's debate...and you know that she will every chance she gets (and those chances will be many what with yet another liberal moderator at the debate helm)...whenever she utters the word 'taxes' or even brings up his tax returns Donald Trump should look straight at the camera and say with all seriousness and conviction the words 'Christopher Stevens, Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty.' 

And if that does not stop Hillary cold in her tracks Trump can then add in the words 'Shahram Amiri'...the Iranian nuclear scientist aiding the U.S...the Iranian scientist who her email so-called by the F.B.I. 'recklessness' directly lead to his execution for treason...hung by the neck until dead in front of his family some reports have said. 

Nothing...and I mean nothing...trumps the list of dead bodies Hillary Clinton has left in the wake of her 30 years in politics and that is something that Trump needs to remind people of and the sooner he does it...and the sooner he returns to the issues and the issues alone...the sooner he can turn his very bad week around.

Just saying...

Op-ed:
The Last Straw...Perhaps
By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots on americanpbn.com/

And so the man...Donald J. Trump...who in his 'it's all about me persona'...the man who has failed to even mention the Constitution and our freedoms in any speech or interview given...opened up a huge can of worms last Friday after the Wall Street Journal published an interview in which he verbally attacked U.S. District Court Judge Gonzalo Curiel...the very judge assigned to one of the fraud lawsuits against Trump University.

Calling Curiel a “Mexican” and a “hater” Trump chooses to forget the very fact that Curiel was actually born in Indiana to parents who had legally immigrated to the U.S. thus making him one hundred percent American. And why did he do this...simply because he claims Curiel has been “outspoken” on the immigration issue and is a “member of La Raza” the radical Hispanic group. But as usual Trump is wrong yet again as what Curiel is affiliated with is the Hispanic bar association La Raza Lawyers of California, two totally different things. Adding that Curiel is “too biased” to hear his case...a case Trump has said “I should have won this thing years ago”...Trump clearly insinuated that Curiel's heritage would overshadow his following the letter of the law when hearing said case, thus showing a decidedly bigoted and racist side to the man who wants to be the next president of these United States.

“I’m building a wall. It’s an inherent conflict of interest,” whined Trump when he did not get the judge of his choice...in other words not a Hispanic judge...let alone get the case against him dismissed.

Failing to understand that the two issues...the wall and Trump University...have absolutely nothing in common, Trump has now basically let it be known that each and every person of Hispanic ancestry, not just Mexican ancestry, is biased against him. And to make it even worse Trump does not care that he continues to alienate Hispanics from ever voting Republican no matter that he has over and over told RNC Chairman Reince Preibus that he understands the party needs to improve its standing with non-white voters.

Well, Trump best start caring about non-white voters as his clearly bigoted words concerning Judge Curiel have raised the ire of some of his own supporters, key influential supporters like Newt Gingrich who said in an interview with the Washington Post that Trump's “description of the judge in terms of his parentage is completely unacceptable" and is “one of the worst mistakes” he's made. Adding that it's “inexcusable,” and that Trump needed to start acting like "a potential leader of the United States," Gingrich clearly showed his personal distaste for the man who thinks he's better than anyone else.

And how did Trump respond, “Gingrich's comment was out of line.” And Trump's comment about the judge...a comment that truly had all the earmarks of a bigoted individual apparently was not...oh really...actually Trump needs his mouth washed out with a proverbial bar of soap if you ask me. And now Newt best forget being Trump's VP pick as anyone who speaks out against his 'Trumpness' needs to be prepared for an onslaught of not only bully name calling comments being leveled against them, but also of their being thrown by the wayside.

And others in the current Republican hierarchy are now joining forces to rightfully condemn Trump for his bigoted remarks, including Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell who said he "couldn't disagree more" with Trump's comments questioning Curiel's impartiality. And further calling Trump to task for his remarks, McConnell told Trump to stop focusing on Curiel and to “make good on his promise” to unite the still fractured Republican Party. Saying that "we're all behind him now,” what McConnell was actually saying was that uniting behind Trump might not be the case for too much longer if he continues to run his mouth, especially since he added that “it's a big mistake for the Republican party to write off Latin Americans as they're an important part of the country and soon to be the largest minority group in the country." 
 
A very important part for sure as Trump's so controversial comments concerning Curiel could have a 'down-ballot' impact on state and local races...especially impacting several Republican Senate and House candidates who need Hispanic support in the key states of Florida, Texas, and Arizona. And this possible scenario has even led Senator Bob Corker (TN), who has been key in supporting Trump's foreign policy agenda...if you call foreign policy sound-bytes an agenda...to call Trump out on his comments about the judge. Saying on ABC's 'This Week,' "I think that he's going to have to change," referring to Trump's overall behavior and campaign tactics, Corker just might be next on Trump's chopping block for how dare he too criticize and call to task his 'Trumpness.'

Now add into the mix former presidential candidate, Florida Senator Marco Rubio...who has said he would honor his pledge to vote for the nominee. Saying in an interview that “I think it’s wrong, [and] he [Trump]needs to stop saying it,” Rubio added that “That man [Curiel] is an American, born in the United States,” finishing with that even if Curiel hadn’t been born here, he was still “a judge who has earned that position and in the end should be treated with the same level of respect as any other officer of the court.”

But the thing that most do not get is that Donald J. Trump does not respect anybody but Donald J. Trump as can be witnessed by his retort to the media concerning said criticism of Curiel. Saying ”I'm not changing” and that I'm not “adjusting my approach” to this issue or any other issues that may come up, Trump made it clear that, in his mind, what he says goes...no ifs, ands, or buts allowed.

And if people's eyes were really open they would see the true Donald J. Trump, a man who still has not said anything of substance against Hillary Clinton except to give her the moniker “Crooked Hillary.” Yet Trump is always on the attack against his 'supposed' fellow Republicans, and that alone should show even his die-hard, blind following supporters his true nature and true party allegiance...an allegiance that is not Republican and sure isn't Conservative...and they would see it if they would put the 'Trump kool-aid' down for even just a minute.

And now as if to add insult to injury, Monday on FOX News...and I personally heard it...Trump said that “all Mexican judges” will be biased against him. But what the clueless one doesn't get is that our judges are American not Mexican for this is America not Mexico after all...but I guess when he was busy playing sports in college after securing his phony 'to get out of serving in Vietnam' medical deferment for a foot injury, that he missed the required basic civics 101 class on judicial appointments.

Still holding firm and refusing to back away from his statement that Curiel's parents being born in Mexico had left the judge “angry” over his wanting to build a wall along our southern border thus makes him “biased” against him in the Trump University case. And Trump again spewed his bigotry and hate against anyone he deems not worthy by saying on CBS' 'Face the Nation' that he'd have “similar concerns” over a Muslim judge because of his proposal to ban muslims from entering the United States.

So Donald tell me who's next...black judges because the KKK and David Duke endorsed him...Jewish judges because he wants to remain neutral in the Israeli/Palestinian conflict...Catholic judges because some misguided souls who support him consider the Catholic church to be a 'false' church...Oriental judges because heaven forbid they might be of Chinese ancestry...or maybe women judges because Trump has no respect for women as he went through girlfriends and now goes through wives like candy... like I said who else will be on Trump's 'they are not worthy to judge me' list.

'They can't judge or speak ill of me but I sure as hell can judge and speak ill of them' should be Trump's motto as judging and speaking ill of others race, ethnicity, and religion is a hallmark of the personal Donald J. Trump and goes back many years as witnessed by documented comments about blacks, Jews, and Hispanics in the book 'Trumped' by John O'Donnell. O'Donnell, who was a president of Trump Plaza Hotel & Casino for a year and who quit on his own accord to work for Trump's competitors because he said Trump did not know how to run a casino, stated in his book Trump's remarks that “And isn’t it funny. I’ve got black accountants at Trump Castle and Trump Plaza. Black guys counting my money! I hate it,” to be followed up with Trump's stereotypical comment about Jews,“The only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes every day.” But I guess in Trump's mind that's negated because he marched, as he claims, in a Jewish parade.

And his remarks about black people continued on in O'Donnell's book as witnessed by this statement, “I think the guy is lazy,” Trump said of a black employee. “And it’s probably not his fault because laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is, I believe that. It’s not anything they can control.” I wonder if Trump has the nerve to say those words to Senator Tim Scott, Congresswoman Mia Love, former presidential candidates Herman Cain and Dr. Ben Carson, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas...the list goes on and on as does Trump's racist and bigoted leanings towards black people.

Bigoted leanings for sure for remember back to 1973 when Trump was sued by the state of New York for racial discrimination against black people looking to rent apartments in Brooklyn, Queens, and Staten Island. Trump settled the case without admitting wrongdoing, but if he did nothing wrong why did he settle instead of working to clear his name...just saying. 
 
And his disdain for Hispanic people in general is well-known and must not be swept under the rug by his die-hard followers. Remember, Trump has numerous times lumped all Mexicans together calling them rapists, crooks, and killers, and has said that Mexico deliberately sends these people to us. Trump even accused his former opponent Jeb Bush of liking “these people” solely because he has a “Mexican wife.” And lest we forget the time not too long ago when Trump personally had his security team kick award winning Hispanic journalist Jorge Ramos out of his press conferences in Iowa for simply speaking out of turn asking him a question about immigration...and what did Trump yell at him as he was being led away...“Go back to Univision.”

And now finally some tangible and rightful repercussions against Trump's big mouth and lack of decorum have started...and have started in of all places with the media after Trump's recent verbal tirade against them. The very media who have supported him 24/7 since day one now has their reporters being called “scum, sleaze, and bloodsuckers” all because they dared to report on the brouhaha between his 'Trumpness' and Judge Curiel.

In fact, on June 1st, press giant 'USA Today' said Trump’s attacks on Curiel were “unashamedly racist and dangerously dismissive,” adding that Trump’s “outrageous behavior,” is “unashamedly racist.”

Even the ubber liberal 'The New York Times' editorial board harshly called Trump to task for “steer[ing] his pirate ship into uncharted waters” and “firing off personal and racially tinged attacks against a federal judge hearing a case in which Mr. Trump is the defendant.” Also saying that Trump's words pose a “special danger…in that they emboled Mr. Trump’s many followers to feel, and act, the same way,” as in monkey see, monkey do, as witnessed by the many altercations at Trump rallies.
 
And in the May 31st edition of 'The New Yorker,' writer Jeffrey Toobin rightfully slammed Trump’s comments, saying that Trump’s overall “style” is not limited to judges, but is “bigoted name-calling” as opposed to “reasoned critique.” 
 
And this is just the tip of the print backlash against Trump, but said backlash is not limited to just the print and television media, but has crossed over into the internet media as well as witnessed by this recent statement from internet giant BuzzFeed's CEO Jonah Peretti who said, “...we don’t run cigarette ads because they are hazardous to our health, and we won’t accept Trump ads for the exact same reason,” as he terminated a deal he had with the Republican National Committee (RNC) to run political ads for Trump in the fall...ads that would have run right up to the election...ads that would have brought into his company millions of dollars.

And know this backlash against Trump will not simply go away as he wishes as it's actually picking up steam daily. So what is Trump doing to counter this, in his eyes, targeted assault against his crybaby self...he's not apologizing that's for sure and has instead chosen to, according to 'Bloomberg Politics,' instruct his surrogates not only to continue to press that point about Curiel, but to intensify their attacks on the judge, and to expand those attacks to include the press.

“The people asking the questions, those are the racists,” Trump said directly insinuating that any and all in the media who helped create and fuel the so-called 'Trump train' are bigots. Bet they all have egg on their faces now as should the millions of Trump supporters who are left with the reality that their boy is the epitome of and poster boy for bigotry and hate.

And so I remain as I have wisely been from the start #nevertrump #neverhillary and #neverbernie.

Op-ed: 
Back to the YouTube video we go...back to covering up for Hillary 
By: Diane Sori

"The attack was led ... by fighters who had benefited directly from NATO's extensive air power and logistics support during the uprising against Colonel Qaddafi. And contrary to claims by some members of Congress, it was fueled in large part by anger at an American-made video denigrating Islam." - The New York Times

Well it's started.  Laying the groundwork for a Hillary run in 2016, the New York Times has come out with a farce of an article...actually a six-part series about the attack on Benghazi which leads back to that ridiculous claim that a YouTube video about mohamed was the cause of it all.

Trying to defect all blame for Bengahzi away from Hillary...to actually try and exonerate her...good leftist newspaper that they are...the New York Times this past Saturday started running the series 'A Deadly Mix In Benghazi' by David Kirkpatrick. This series claims there is NO evidence whatsoever to prove that al-Qaeda was involved in the Benghazi attack, and that the attack was carried out solely by local militant islamist groups who were furious over the American-produced video the 'Innocence of Muslims' that slammed islam and the (supposed) prophet mohamed.

And this series uses quotes from 'anonymous' sources...Libyans who claimed they were in Benghazi and who claimed to have direct knowledge of the attack...as their 'supposed' credible sources. Anonymous sources who in their very anonymity means they are NOT credible at all.

Hate to tell The New York Times but this was a pre-planned well orchestrated attack by al-Qaeda and done in conjunction with the al-Qaeda aligned Muslim Brotherhood. Even Muslim Brotherhood members who were directly connected to ousted US educated, former professor at California State University (1982-1985) Muslim Brotherhood puppet President Mohamed Morsi, admitted to having had an operational role in the attack. And here's a little something our media has NOT reported on...the first two of Morsi's five children were born in the US and have US citizenship and passports they will NOT give up.

After being arrested at the scene, statements and confessions were taken from six members of one of the cells who took part in the attack and they admitted to being Egyptians connected to the al-Qaeda affiliate group Ansar al-Shariah. During interrogations these Egyptians, according to a US government verified Libyan intelligence document, “confessed to very serious and important information concerning the financial sources of the group and the planners of the event and the storming and burning of the U.S. consulate in Benghazi…. And among the more prominent figures whose names were mentioned by cell members during confessions were: Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi."

In fact there's even a video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_eRgZ82OTRk) shot on a cell phone that shows a mob approaching the American compound while it was under siege, clearly showing some in the mob telling the terrorists in the dialect of Upper Egypt: “Mahadesh, mahadesh yermi, Dr. Morsi ba`atna” which translates to, “Don’t shoot, don’t shoot, Dr. Morsi sent us.”

By the way, the name 'Morsi' is Egyptian only and appears in NO other Arabic dialect.

Four Americans were murdered in the attack on the Benghazi diplomatic mission and CIA compound and to date still NO one at the top has been called to task. Some low-level minor State Department employees were slapped on the wrist but that's it. Then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton walked away seemingly untouched even after saying about those killed at Benghazi, "What difference at this point does it make" when questioned by Congress. Barack HUSSEIN Obama, who watched them die in real time and who, as Commander-in-Chief, could have been the only one to tell rescuers to 'stand down,' jetted off the next morning to a fundraiser in Las Vegas and I can imagine him laughing that he pulled off another one. But isn't it odd that all the generals, admirals, and high-ranking officers who knew the truth about the attack have either 'suddenly' retired early or been relieved of their commands.

And all this because of a poorly crafted video...NO...I do NOT think so.

Claiming that everyone is confusing local Libyan extremist groups like Ansar al-Shariah (Supporters of Islamic Law) for al-Qaeda’s world-wide terrorist network, the New York Times series states that Ansar al-Shariah and other local islamic militia groups were already planning an attack when the video just happened to be released adding the much needed final bit of fuel to the fire...a video that stirred up the restless already out for blood who now wanted the time frame for the attack moved up...a video that became the perfect foil for Obama's much needed cover for the truth.

Remember, with the Benghazi attack occurring in the middle of the 2012 presidential campaign, Obama knew this attack could seriously damage his chances of winning re-election if the truth were ever to come out that Ambassador Stevens, Information Officer Sean Smith, and ex-Navy SEALS Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty died in a carefully planned attack by al-Qaeda to mark the eleventh anniversary of 9/11, and that he knew it was going to happen and did NOTHING to stop it or to try and rescue those in danger. So instead Obama and his minions concocting and spread the YouTube story to cover up al-Qaeda’s role to avoid the sure to come discrediting of Obama's bloviations that al-Qaeda had been decimated and was on the run, all because he had single-handily (said with much sarcasm) taken out Osama bin Laden.

And of course the video was used to deflect any and all blame away from Hillary Clinton...the woman the media had already deemed to be the next in line for the presidency...never mind that she time and again willfully ignored Ambassador Stevens' many pleas for help.

Willfully ignoring those pleas for help because the most probable scenario...a scenario I have said since day one and still stand by...is that Benghazi was an Obama funded and orchestrated ILLEGAL gun and weapons running operation to the al-Qaeda backed Syrian rebels that Ambassador Stevens found out about and was going to blow the whistle on. And I bet Hillary knew it all...and knowing that Hillary had sympathy towards the Muslim Brotherhood (due to her close friendship with her then State Department Deputy Chief of Staff Huma Abedin) she probably even condoned the gun and weapons running.

It's pretty obvious that Ambassador Stevens had to be silenced one way or another (Smith, Woods, and Doherty were considered 'collateral damage') and both Obama and Hillary need this truth hidden at all costs...especially Hillary if she is going to run in 2016. And it's the truth that many in Congress also know but are just too afraid to admit to or to seriously act upon beyond the 'dog and pony show' Congressional Benghazi hearings that went nowhere.

And so the true objectives of this New York Times series...especially coming out now while speculation about a Hillary run are all over the media and the internet...are clearly NOT to get to the truth about Benghazi, but are about trying to diffuse the right from being able to use Benghazi against Hillary. And to that I say, sorry but it will indeed be used every chance we get NOT only to damage and diffuse her campaign but also to try and prevent Hillary from running in the first place for America has had quite enough with Barack HUSSEIN Obama...America does NOT need his socialist agenda continued under a Hillary Clinton presidency... period.
