Conservatives welcome. Libs & RINOs go away. It's all of you destroying the society and conservatives must no longer appease you!
President Donald Trump is attacked on a daily basis by his enemies in the media, the political establishment, and the deep state. He is under unrelenting assault, more so than any other U.S. President in recent history.

The Reagan Battalion – an anonymous group that pretends to be operating with the conservative interest in mind – has had a busy year. You may remember that back in February they launched a vicious smear campaign against Pro-Trump activist, Milo Yiannopoulos. Their campaign against him involved an edited video that managed to lose him his book deal, speaking engagement at CPAC, and ultimately caused him to resign from Breitbart.com sooner than expected.
Since then, The Reagan Battalion has been previously tied to far left liberal PACs, Soros-funded activist groups, while enjoying a very cozy relationship with #NeverTrumper Ben Shapiro.
Reagan Battalion has gone out of their way to attack President Trump and other Pro-Trump conservatives at every turn, in a since deleted tweet, they proclaimed “The choice is abundantly clear! You either stand with Donald Trump & the KKK, or with the #NeverTrump movement!” Sounds pretty similar to what far-left political activists and NeoCons keep saying, right?
Back in February, you might also remember that The Gateway Pundit reported fairly extensively on collusion between Soros far left groups, #NeverTrumpers who paid for opposition research, and an Even McMullin campaign site.
Just last week the Reagan Battalion cheered the exit of Steve Bannon along with Ben Shapiro and a handful of other #NeverTrumpers.
Even more recently, they are going after Right Side Broadcasting Network host Nicholas Fuentes ; they’ve attempted to “dox, shame, bully, purge, and get him fired” according to GotNews.
Well, yesterday evening one clever YouTuber claims to have been contacted by a low-level Reagan Battalion member who has verified the ringleader of the #NeverTrumper group as Benny Polatseck.
After this was reported to YouTuber WildGooseBWC , he decided to do some legwork of his own to check into whether the info lined up; to do this he did a comparison of Twitter accounts belonging to The Reagan Battalion, Benny Polatseck, and Colassal PR (a NeoCon strategy and design firm owned by Mr. Polatseck)… well, the results are in:
Watch the full video, where WildGooseBWC goes through all the evidence and gives you a more in-depth look at the man behind it:

Finally, the Reagan Battalion is exposed.
And it’s not pretty.

You obviously couldn’t expect a heavily Democratic city like Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to stay out of the Confederate monument removal story, right? They’re as big on protesting there as any of their other major metropolitan brothers and sisters. So it should come as no surprise that they’ve had protesters out on the steps of the city plaza on a regular basis calling for the removal of a statue of former Mayor (and Police Commissioner) Frank Rizzo.
Wait a minute… Frank Rizzo was in the Confederacy?
Rizzo was a colorful figure to be sure, much like many other leaders of the Democratic Party machine in the City of Brotherly Love. (One of his more famous quotes during his campaign for a second term as mayor was reported to be, “Just wait after November. You’ll have a front row seat because I’m going to make Attila the Hun look like a faggot.”) So anyway, though he didn’t actually fight in the Civil War, the protesters are mad at him about… something.
But that’s not the real story here. One of the protesters who happens to be a teacher allowed his famous Philly temper to get the better of him and decided to threaten some of the cops guarding the statue with physical violence. That ended pretty much as you’d probably expect. (NBC Philadelphia)
A Philadelphia school teacher was charged early Saturday with allegedly making terroristic threats against a police officer during a protest at the Rizzo statue Aug. 16, according to court documents.
John Sheerin, 63, of Crescentville, is seen on a video shot by local reporter and columnist Helen Ubiñas during protests in the shadow of the statue for Frank Rizzo, a former mayor and police commissioner. (Warning: The video contains extremely graphic language.)
A phone number for Sheerin went to voicemail, which indicated that the mailbox was full and a message could not be left.
Sheerin isn’t just “a teacher.” He is (or at least was) an elementary school teacher. Hopefully he managed to hold both his tongue and his temper a bit better than this in the classroom. I won’t print the quotes of what he said while screaming at the cop, but you can hear most of it (with some strategic bleeping) in this brief NBC video report.
I suppose we should be trying to draw some deeper meaning out of this regarding the ongoing monument protests, the erasure of history and all the rest. But seriously… this is Philly we’re talking about here. I worked there for years and lived right across the Walt Whitman Bridge in Jersey. These are the folks who threw ice packed snowballs at Santa Clause during an Eagles game and pelted their own coach with batteries. It’s the home of Little Nicky Scarfo and Angelo Bruno.
While I’m not condoning this behavior at all, we probably do need to put it in context. What Sheerin did probably would qualify as making terrorist threats in most parts of the country. But in Philly, telling a cop to come meet you at your house so you can kick his ****ing a** is more along the lines of something you’d hear if he just didn’t like the look on your face.
Still, the deed is done and Sheerin has been arrested. As to what happens to the statue of Rizzo, that’s a tough call to make. He was, as I said, a Democrat (until he switched parties for a few years at the end of his life), not to mention being Italian. For all his rough spots he was, and probably remains, a very popular figure in that city. Tearing the statue down might not go over so well. And if protesters do it by force without authorization, well… you might want to watch out for flying batteries.

The tech giant said that it will slash prices on Monday when it completes its acquisition of Whole Foods. The announcement sent shares of Kroger, Walmart, Costoco and others into a tailspin as pricing pressure is expected to eat into their margins.
One unintended consequence of Amazon’s announcement: the complete devastation of the unfounded fear-mongering about food prices under the Trump administration that has been rampant in the press.
“You could soon pay more for worse food. Thanks, Donald Trump,” blared a Washington Post headline on December 6.
“A Donald Trump presidency could lead to food shortage in the U.S.,” an article on Quartz declared.
“Your wine and food prices are going to rise when Donald Trump takes office,” a piece on MarketWatch warned.
The Wall Street Journal‘s Justin Lahart was characteristically more sober and more thoughtful in his assessment. No screaming about food shortages or declarations that food prices were definitely headed up. But even Lahart’s March 15 column warned of a “food pinch.”
“The higher prices that could ensue would raise costs for food companies, grocery stores and restaurants, putting margins at risk,” Lahart wrote.
A full list of Food Price Panic articles would go on for scores of entries.
Even before the Amazon announcement, these predictions were in the process of being proven wrong. The cost of food in the United States in July of 2017 was just 1.1 percent higher than it was a year earlier, well below the long-term annual average of 3.4 percent. The price of food purchased for home consumption from grocery stores was up just 0.3 percent compared with a year earlier.
Overall, the U.S. government expects supermarket food prices to change between -0.25 percent and 0.75 percent for the entire year, according to the Department of Agriculture’s latest update. Next year they are expected to rise between 1 percent and 2 percent.
The best thing that can be said about the Food Price Panic articles is that perhaps they were early. Perhaps one of these days Trump’s immigration stance is going to send food prices sky-rocketing. Could happen. Not likely. But you never know.
The authors also could not have predicted that general inflation would remain very low. Or that Amazon would buy Whole Foods and immediately announce price cuts. Except that this is not really a credible defense. It just shows that those making panicky predictions about the direction of food prices really had no idea what was going to happen.
And some food market watchers did not fall into the trap. Back in April, Breitbart News reported that food prices were not rising and should not be expected to rise.
“Food is in a deflationary cycle, with prices falling year after year and expected to keep falling. Even if immigration policies are causing a labor shortage, American families are not seeing the effects at the grocery store,” Breitbart News reported.

On this weekend’s broadcast of Fox News Channel’s “Sunday Morning Futures,” Republican U.S. Senate hopeful Dr. Kelli Ward, Sen. Jeff Flake’s (R-AZ) challenger in next year’s GOP primary, said it would be a “big mistake” for the “establishment wing” to primary President Donald Trump.
Ward said, “I definitely think in 2018 we need to elect people who have that America first agenda in mind. People who want to secure the border, who want to stop illegal immigration, who want to repeal Obamacare finally, who want to keep the economy growing, who wants to fix the tax code and want to make sure that our military is the strongest in the world.”
“Unfortunately, we have a lot of people in Washington, especially in the Senate, who like to talk a lot, but don’t like to collaborate with each other, House to Senate, within the Republican Party to accomplish the agenda that the American people are crying out for,” she added.
When asked about a primary challenge to Trump, Ward said, “I certainly think that would be a big mistake for the establishment wing of the Republican Party to attempt. I think President Trump and his leadership is what the country wanted, that’s why he’s in the White House and I think he’s got lofty goals that we should accomplish that will put America first.”

First, National Economic Council (NEC) director Gary Cohn—the former number two banker at Goldman Sachs and a top Democrat who joined the Trump administration after the president’s election—bashed the president in an on-record interview with the Financial Times.
“I have come under enormous pressure both to resign and to remain in my current position,” Cohn said when asked by the Financial Times about his thoughts on the president’s response to the incidents in Charlottesville. “As a patriotic American, I am reluctant to leave my post as director of the National Economic Council because I feel a duty to fulfill my commitment to work on behalf of the American people. But I also feel compelled to voice my distress over the events of the last two weeks. Citizens standing up for equality and freedom can never be equated with white supremacists, neo-Nazis, and the KKK. I believe this administration can and must do better in consistently and unequivocally condemning these groups and do everything we can to heal the deep divisions that exist in our communities. As a Jewish American, I will not allow neo-Nazis ranting ‘Jews will not replace us’ to cause this Jew to leave his job. I feel deep empathy for all who have been targeted by these hate groups. We must all unite together against them.”
The New York Times also reported that Cohn drafted a resignation letter, and came under enormous pressure from his own family including his wife to resign, but has remained in the White House.
“Mr. Cohn, who is Jewish, seriously considered resigning and even drafted a letter of resignation, according to two people familiar with the draft,” the New York Times’ Maggie Haberman and Kate Kelly wrote on Friday, adding later in the piece details about Cohn’s plans for potential resignation.
“In the days after the Charlottesville violence, Mr. Cohn’s family — including his wife — told him he needed to think seriously about departing, according to two people briefed on the discussions,” Haberman and Kelly wrote. “Several of his friends in the business community also urged him to step away from the administration. Mr. Cohn is a former executive at Goldman Sachs. Mr. Cohn came close to resigning, according to one of the people briefed on the discussions. He met with Mr. Trump privately at the president’s golf club in New Jersey last Friday, scrapping his plans to spend the evening at his second home in the Hamptons.”
The Washington Post added in its own reporting that Cohn was overheard in a Long Island restaurant trashing President Trump.
“On Wednesday evening, Cohn complained loudly about Trump while dining with friends at a Long Island restaurant called the Frisky Oyster,” the Washington Post’s Damien Paletta and Philip Rucker reported on Friday. “Cohn explained to his companions — in a loud voice overheard by others — that he had to be careful not to give Trump too much lead time about some new ideas because the president could disclose the information prematurely and upend the planning process, according to a person familiar with the dinner.”
Now, after Cohn’s threats to resign over his disagreements with the president, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson appeared on Fox News Sunday this weekend to also disparage the president. Tillerson declined to say that the president supports American values, saying that the State Department does but that “the president speaks for himself.”
In addition, Tillerson defended globalists arguing that he does not “see any division” between those who support globalization and those who support the “America First” agenda that the president campaigned on.
“I think it’s a question of tactics and how you achieve those objectives,” Tillerson told Fox News’ Chris Wallace. “I think the president has been clear in his speech in Afghanistan that we are not undertaking nation-building. We will be shifting our diplomatic and aid in development as well to coincide with the present fear that the Afghan government and that Afghan people must own their form of government and they must come to reconciliation with all ethnic groups including the Taliban. A peaceful country who does not support terrorism does not provide safe havens are terrorist and does not align itself with any terrorist organizations or countries that do. That’s what winning looks like.”
He also said that Dr. Sebastian Gorka’s criticism of the Afghanistan speech’s lack of any mention of “radical Islam” or “radical Islamic terrorism”—a sharp departure from the campaign vision of President Trump—is “completely wrong.”
“It shows a lack of understanding of the president’s broader policy when it comes to protecting Americans at home and abroad from all acts of terrorism,” Tillerson said of Gorka’s criticism. “Terrorism, as we’ve said, it manifests itself in many types of organization. The president has charged us to develop policies and tactics most diplomatically and militarily to attack terrorism in as many forms wherever it exists in the world and wherever it might present a threat to the homeland or to Americans anywhere. This means that we have to develop techniques that are global in nature. All we want is to ensure that terrorists do not have the capability to organize and carry out attacks.”
Gorka resigned from the White House on Friday in part due to the failures on the Afghanistan speech and vision from the president, which were pushed in large part thanks to National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster.
Together with Cohn, McMaster, and Tillerson, others in the White House have banded together to form the “West Wing Democrats.” They include the president’s daughter Ivanka Trump, her husband Trump’s son-in-law and adviser Jared Kushner, Deputy National Security adviser Dina Habib Powell—who worked with Cohn at Goldman Sachs—as well as new chief of staff John Kelly. Powell claims to be a Republican due to her short tenure in the George W. Bush White House, and Tillerson was a longtime GOP donor, but this cadre of individuals and others reportedly view their role as moderating the president’s campaign positions to protect the established order and status quo in Washington. They work closely with congressional leaders like House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to achieve their ends against the president’s agenda.
Interestingly, as Cohn and Tillerson were publicly attacking the president over the weekend, so was Ryan—for a different topic, the president’s decision to pardon former Maricopa County, Arizona, Sheriff Joe Arpaio.
White House interim communications director Hope Hicks has not replied to a series of questions from Breitbart News about why the president is letting these people get away with this public humiliation of him, and how it shows weakness on his behalf. It remains to be seen if the president will do anything about it, but the display of lack of control of his own supposed allies weakens his position heading into what is likely to be one of the bloodiest legislative months in recent history. In September, Trump and Congress need to pass a spending bill, raise the debt ceiling, revisit efforts to repeal and replace Obamacare, and begin tax reform.

According to the Los Angeles Times, “Members of Antifa were seen involved in a number of violent scuffles.”
Three of the people detained violated the no-mask rule, according to KCRA. A woman who allegedly assaulted a photographer was also arrested, along with two men who exchanged blows.
Thousands of people, from the far-right and far-left of the political spectrum, were reportedly present for the “Rally Against Hate,” where individuals who are opposed to President Donald Trump outnumbered those present in support of the commander-in-chief.
The rally through the Martin Luther King, Jr., Civic Center Park began peacefully, based on social media accounts of the event:

The Washington Post reported that a protester, Karla Fonseca, denounced the Latino man holding a “God Bless Donald Trump” sign in the tweet above telling him, “You are an immigrant. You should be ashamed of yourself.”
President Trump has indicated he is pro-legal immigration.
However, according to video posted to Twitter and media reports, the peace quickly dissipated into violence as Antifa allegedly attacked a reporter and a photographer:

According to the Washington Post, “Anti-rally protesters chanted slogans ‘No Trump. No KKK. No fascist USA’ and carried signs that said: ‘Berkeley Stands United Against Hate.’”
Dozens of anti-fascist protesters reportedly pounced on Joey Gibson, founder of the right-wing group Patriot Prayer, and his crew when they showed up at the rally. Patriot Prayer made the choice to cancel their planned “Freedom Rally” in San Francisco’s Crissy Field Beach Saturday due to safety concerns.
“We’ve decided that tomorrow really seems like a setup,” Gibson announced during a Facebook Live video. “It doesn’t seem safe. A lot of people’s lives are going to be in danger tomorrow.” He added, “The rhetoric from Nancy Pelosi, Mayor Lee, the media – all of these people are saying that we’re white supremacists, and it’s bringing in tons of extremists.”
Meanwhile, San Francisco city leaders congratulated themselves over shutting down free speech in the area known as the birthplace of the free speech movement Saturday after Patriot Prayer’s announcement.
Breitbart News reported, “Mayor Ed Lee praised counter-demonstrators who had marched across the city, as well as those who marched near the designated site for the protest. ‘They made sure the themes of love and compassion dominated over hate speech,’ he said at City Hall, according to SFGate.com.”
The Los Angeles Times reported that “Antifa protesters beat one man with a shield and another person wearing an American flag.”

If you wondered about the deplorable state of American mis-education, all you have to do is look at the historical revisionist indoctrination in the textbooks, the classroom-forced Islamization of students, the Common Core standards that are dumbing down students across the board, and the Bolshevik-style cultural purge of Civil War monuments and heroes that are taking place around the country with the full approval and instigation from academia, the MSM, politicians, the current administration, and American citizens.

Nearly a year ago I wrote the following narrative that first appeared in Canada Free Press. It works too well with this article not to use it again. Since I wrote this, I’m proud to say I have seen and heard this little vignette referred to by some brainy people I admire in both literary and audiovisual pieces they have done.

An army of violent left-wing Antifa terrorists wearing all black, covering their faces with masks terrorized Trump supporters and chased them while trying to steal their phones and cameras. Police did not step in to stop the violence.
Antifa terrorists also beat and poured urine on a male Trump supporter who was completely non-violent as he tried to get away from the mob of masked thugs.
Watch as Antifa pours urine on this man while they chase, beat him and push him to the ground. The Trump supporter simply wanted to get away from the Antifa terrorists and did not engage in any violence.
President Trump MUST designate Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization. They have metastasized and are terrorizing innocent people. The fact that Trump supporters are constantly beat up while the leaders of this country do NOTHING to stop Antifa is disturbing. What are they waiting for? This type of violence towards Trump supporters has been going on for over a year and it is getting worse.
