CPAC

-by ValeriusIntroductionSteve Bannon came out of his hole last week at CPAC, and, not unlike as Punxsutawny Phil often does, he predicted a long winter. The difference is, the winter he is predicting is for America, if not, in his mind, for all of western civilization. The end of America a nation. As a concept. As a nation of laws. As one nation, under God, indivisible. And certainly as a land of liberty and justice for all.

(RPI) It can be a challenge to follow the pronouncements of President Trump, as he often seems to change his position on any number of items from week to week, or from day to day, or even from minute to minute. Consider his speech last week at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). It was reported as “fiery” and “blistering,” but it was also full of contradictions.

It must have been extraordinarily depressing for sincere conservatives, but on Sunday, Tim Alberta, writing for Politico , noted that the conservative movement is Donald Trump.

The liberal left got all fired up in a tizzy at the vision of audience members at the CPAC holding up what appeared to be Russian flags.

The lies weren't the worst part of Señor Trumpanzee's CPAC speech yesterday. It was the fascist tone, eagerly devoured by his collaborators, that got to me.

President Trump warned  everyone that “we’re gonna do something about the media” during his CPAC speech.
Trump followed through on this warning.

“We are fighting the fake news. It’s fake. Phony. Fake. A few days ago I called the fake news the enemy of the people, and they are. They are the enemy of the people.”

Farage was out in full force, speaking to conservative America about the death of the neo-liberal world agenda and their corrupt policies.
Farage noted…

“Last opinion poll says that now 68% of the British people want us to get on with BREXIT.”

Nigel Farage also crushed it during a speech at Hillsdale College, calling the “liberal left” the “most illiberal people” in the world.

“This young generation who scream words like fascists have actually themselves become the fascists.”

I can't stop watching this video... What a pity it ends so quickly!I was involved with Depeche Mode's career right from the very beginning, when I was a dj at KUSF in San Francisco playing the "Dreaming of Me," "New Life" and "Just Can't Get Enough" singles in 1980 even before Mute (and Sire) released Speak & Spell, their debut album the following year.

The American Conservative Union chairman conducted a rare, in depth interview, with Steve Bannon and Reince Priebus during the CPAC 2017 event.
Priebus and Bannon presented a united front against the “fake news” mainstream media (that has reported the two men are at odds) during the CPAC interview.
Steve Bannon proved that he is the man defining ‘Trumpism’.
