Many groups and people are now saying that now McCarthy has dropped out it might keep Boehner in past his announced retirement date of Oct. 30. That might happen if the establishment R's led by K.Rove manage to split the party focus once again and fail to come up with a consensus of opinion on who to elect as the next speaker. We all know K. Rove will do anything to remain in control and destroy anyone who had the audacity to disagree with his dictates from on high as he always does. In fact, K.Rove has made himself the spokesperson and guiding ego of the Establishment R's. That seems to be the main problem  concerning the party split and focus away from their conservative roots.

Right now, the person in the house who has stood up to Rove's excessive ego by challenging Boehner, is Daniel Webster. Based on his courage as shown by coming against Boehner, and only losing by 12 votes in the attempt to unseat him, I'd say he's the best choice. I also would base my opinion on his extended voting record, I think he would best serve the American people as speaker of the House. We really need to show the establishment that we mean business as conservatives. It appears we flexed our political muscles and won the first round. We have a long way to go before we win the fight.

After the House Speaker issue is settled, we will have to reassess our position and start working on removing McConnell from his place as majority leader in the Senate. By his continued actions he has shown himself to be even weaker at standing up to the Progressives than Boehner was. We also have to look at removing as many left leaning RINO's from congress in the next election as there are RINO's running. I know we won't get them all, but we have to get as many as we can pushed out in the next election. The only Caveat I have on that is we must not do so by letting a Democratic Socialist win either.

Hillary tells Black Lives Matter she’ll end private prisons

By Bradford Richardson

Hillary Clinton reportedly told leaders of the Black Lives Matter movement on Friday she will get rid of private prisons.

The meeting with Black Lives Matter comes a day after Clinton was heckled by a protester at the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute gala over her ties to the private prison lobby.

The former first lady spoke with activists for 90 minutes in Washington, D.C., and discussed the policies she will promote in her yet-to-be-released racial justice platform. 

 

Activist Deray McKesson, who was in the meeting, said on MSNBC’s “Live with Thomas Roberts” that Clinton "did come out and say she wants to end private prisons.” 

He added, “She hasn’t released a platform yet about racial justice or criminal equity or criminal justice, so I’m hopeful that this conversation will inform that platform." 

McKesson called the meeting an “opportunity for growth” for Clinton, saying she still needs to learn how to use more transparent language when talking about race.

“We said this to her really candidly, about tightening up the language she uses to talk about people of color,” he said. “I’ve said it before, is that sometimes her language is coded, and you don’t really know if she’s talking about black people or who she’s talking about, and we saw that evident in this meeting, so I think there’s a real opportunity for growth there.” 

A Clinton spokesperson said the meeting provided a valuable opportunity for the Democratic primary front-runner to connect with a younger generation of activists.

"She has said she thinks its important what they are doing," the spokesperson said. "Obviously there is a generational difference, but she certainly recognizes and appreciates how important that it is that you have activists who are really willing to put themselves out there and push."

The spokesperson said the protestor must have been unaware of Clinton's stance on prison reform.

"Unfortunately that person didn't know that she's weighed in on that, so we'll underscore that for folks if we need to."

Clinton herself did not respond on Thursday night to the heckler, who claimed to be affiliated with the activist group United We Dream. The group put out a statement saying that half of detained immigrants are placed in private prisons. 

The Intercept reported over the summer that several Clinton fundraisers have ties to the private prison lobby.

McKesson also said he has reached out to Republican primary candidate Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and the Republican National Committee to arrange meetings with Black Lives Matter. He called comments made by former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, who said he would not reauthorize the Voting Rights Act if elected, “deeply troubling.” 

“You know, Jeb’s recent statements have highlighted that he lives in a world as if history did not exist,” McKesson said. “Like, Jim Crow is not too far behind us. There are many people who still remember that time period, and we are not too far removed from it."

Carson suggests he wouldn't raise debt limit

By Jesse Byrnes

Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson suggested Friday that if elected president he would oppose raising the debt limit, an issue that is currently facing Congress.

"It's the same crap every year. Why do we keep doing it?" Carson asked of the debt-limit showdown during an interview on MSNBC's "Andrea Mitchell Reports."

 

"If I was president we wouldn’t be in this situation, OK, because long before we reached the deadline, I would have been saying we’re not going to raise the debt number," Carson said.

"I’m not going to sign anything that in any way increases our obligations.”

Carson also penned a lengthy Facebook note late Thursday, saying a warning about the U.S. defaulting on its debt if the ceiling isn't raised is "absurd Washington spin."

"I think voting to raise the debt ceiling without the iron clad plan to balance the budget is dereliction of duty," he wrote.

The candidate's remarks on the debt limit came after he struggled to explain his position in an interview Wednesday, saying he wouldn't sign "an increased budget."

“I would provide the kind of leadership that says, ‘Get on the stick guys, and stop messing around, and cut where you need to cut, because we're not raising any spending limits, period,’” Carson said in that interview.

The debt limit, which currently stands at $18.1 trillion, caps the amount of money that the government can borrow to pay for the spending that has been authorized by Congress.

The Treasury Department has said that the debt limit must be raised by Nov. 5, or the U.S. risks defaulting on its loans for the first time in history.

Action on raising the debt limit was thrown into limbo on Thursday, when Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) made the surprise decision to withdraw from the race for Speaker.  

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) on Thursday invoked GOP "chaos" in the House to push for a “clean” debt ceiling bill in both the House and Senate, free of any other changes to government spending.

Carson lamented on MSNBC that those opposed to raising the debt ceiling continually find themselves with their "back against the wall."

GOP lawmaker: We need a Speaker who can 'bang heads and break legs'

By Jesse Byrnes

 

Greg Nash

Rep. Pete King (R-N.Y.) says Republicans need to pick a Speaker who can flex their political muscle and keep the party's many factions in line.

"Everyone should be listened to, everyone should be heard, but we're not a high school debating society," King said on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" on Friday.

ADVERTISEMENT

"I think you need a Speaker who can show leadership, but also, quite frankly, a Speaker that can bang heads and break legs if he has to, to get the job done."

Republicans are huddling Friday morning to figure out their next steps after Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) shocked Washington Thursday by abruptly dropping out of the race to succeed outgoing Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio).

Reps. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) and Daniel Webster (R-Fla.) are officially running for the Speaker post and a number of others have said they are weighing a bid. McCarthy, though, was seen as the clear favorite before his surprise exit.

Many Republicans have voiced a desire to see Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), the House Ways and Means Committee chairman and 2012 vice presidential nominee, enter the race.

King said he would support Ryan "110 percent," but couldn't foresee getting behind any of the other potential contenders.

King on Friday cited former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, noting that "when she took over the Conservative Party in Britain, she was brutal in purging her enemies."

"We have to get a job done and we have to realize that you have a leader and you get behind him," he added.

Carson declares war on the press

 

By Jonathan Easley - 10/09/15 03:07 PM EDT

Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson admonished the Washington press corps Friday, calling the news media “embarrassing” and “insincere” and vowing to “expose” the institutional bias he says runs rampant.

Speaking at a gathering of reporters and communications professionals at the National Press Club in Washington, Carson lashed out at the press, citing several instances where he believes his views have been misrepresented.

“Many in the press will say I’m sensitive and that I should not be thinking about running for office, because I get offended by what they do,” he said. “But the reason I expose the press is because I want the people of America to understand what they’re doing. It’s not because I’m sensitive.”

 

The retired neurosurgeon said he has no intention of calling a truce with the news media.

“I will continue to expose them every time they do something, so that as more people understand what they are and what they’re doing, it will negate their affect,” he said. “Until they have the kind of transformation that’s necessary for them to become allies of the people, we have to know what they’re doing.”

Carson’s frustration with the press is boiling over as the presidential candidate, who is soaring in the polls and raising tens of millions of dollars from grassroots conservatives, has battled weeks of controversial headlines.

Carson believes his views on guns and religion have been intentionally distorted by reporters eager to sink his presidential hopes.

“The good thing is that a lot of people in America are on to them and understand what they’re trying to do, and that’s one of the reasons we’re doing well,” Carson said. “It seems like the more they attack me, the better we do.”

This week, Carson said that if he had been at Umpqua Community College, the site of a recent mass shooting, he would have stood up to the gunman. Many people interpreted the remarks to mean that the victims didn’t do enough to protect themselves.

Carson this week also called for arming officials on school grounds, described an encounter with a gunman at a Popeye’s restaurant and said that the Holocaust would have been less likely if the Jews in Germany had been armed.

Carson on Friday defended his remarks on the Holocaust but said that in several other instances, his words had been taken out of context or overblown.

“Everything needs to be looked at in context, and when news media picks one word or one phrase and they run with it and try to characterize people like that, I gotta tell you guys, that’s why people don’t trust you anymore,” he said. “I mean you’re down there with used car salesmen.”

Carson also recalled an encounter with a reporter that led to a story about him being unprepared to deal with the threat of a hurricane.

Carson said he was getting on a bus when he was approached by the reporter and didn’t have time to answer in full.

“I mean, this is the level of insincerity that we see, and it really is kind of embarrassing to see that,” Carson said.

Carson said he’s a frequent target for attacks because as a black Republican, doesn’t fit the mold of a traditional conservative and therefore is viewed as a threat to the liberal order.

He said there’s “still hope for the press” but that they must be called out on their hypocrisies in the hopes “that some of them will recognize it’s almost a sacred obligation they have to the people, to be honest.”

“There is only one business in America that is protected by the Constitution, and that is the press, and there was a reason for that. It was because the press was supposed to be an ally of the people," Carson said. 

"They were supposed to expose and inform the people in a nonpartisan way. When they become partisan, as they are, they distort the system as it was supposed to work, and they allow the side that they pick to get away with all kinds of things.”

Good for Ben more need to expose the media and not take their unfair treatment.

[marrand]

The headline illustrates media's lies perfectly. It's not Carson who declared war on the press; it's the press who declared war on Carson. 

Even on O'Reilly I heard G. Rivera say Carson isn't qualified because he believes in creation. 

When I heard that, I was quite happy this country has a man like Ben Carson, and that he isn't afraid to confront the media. 

[DeeDee]

Ben is a good guy. The media attacks anyone NOT left enough it makes it easy to know who to support. If the media hates them they are probably doing some good somewhere!
