Editor’s Comment: Bought and sold. Rigged. Manipulated. Fixed for a tiny cabal of insiders. Conflict of interest.
They are typical terms that one might have thought applied to the Bush Administration, or the Clinton and Obama presidencies. But already, these terms can be safely applied to Trump’s administration, and it hasn’t even officially begun yet.
It took mere minutes after the election results indicated Trump’s win for The Donald, in his victory speech, to back off of any promises, hints or even suggestions of prosecuting Hillary Clinton (he doesn’t want to hurt them, they are good people)– after campaigning heavily on the notion. And now, after weeks of picking his cabinet appointments, staff and advisors, that Newt Gingrich, a top Trump advisor, admitted that President-elect Trump has officially backed off his other campaign slogan – “Drain the Swamp.”
After choosing Gary Cohn (National Economic Council) and Steven Mnuchin (Treasury Secretary), both from the Goldman Sachs pool, as well as other Wall Street bankers, for top positions in his cabinet – Trump is reportedly officially ditching the corny slogan “drain the swamp.” It makes sense, as it is wholly without substance, and quite disingenuous… as Krieger has written before: “There will be swamp!”
Newt Gingrich Admits – Donald Trump No Longer Wants to ‘Drain the Swamp’
by Michael Krieger
Not that he ever wanted to, but here’s Newt Gingrich admitting what many of us already knew regarding Donald Trump’s fake populism.
Politico reports:
President-elect Donald Trump campaigned on a promise to “drain the swamp” in Washington of corruption, but now that he’s preparing to move into the White House, Newt Gingrich said the Manhattan real estate mogul is looking to distance himself from that message.
“I’m told he now just disclaims that. He now says it was cute, but he doesn’t want to use it anymore,” the former House Speaker and close Trump adviser said of the “drain the swamp” message in an NPR interview published Wednesday morning.
Trump’s Cabinet and other high-level appointments seem to have deviated somewhat from his “drain the swamp” message. After attacking Democrat Hillary Clinton regularly throughout the campaign for being too close to Wall Street banks, Trump has put three former Goldman Sachs executives in prominent White House positions, including Steven Mnuchin as treasury secretary, Steve Bannon as chief White House strategist and Gary Cohn as the director of the National Economic Council.
As I highlighted in the recent post, The Election Never Ended:
As Anthony Scaramucci, a hedge fund manager and top adviser to Trump, as well as a former Goldman Sachs banker himself, put it Thursday: “I think the cabal against the bankers is over.”
Indeed, as we all know, U.S. government economic policy has been essentially handed over to Goldman Sachs during this transition period. Must be a reward for its most recent settlement for rigging yet another market.
Reuters reports:
Goldman Sachs Group Inc will pay a $120 million penalty to resolve civil charges that it attempted to manipulate a global benchmark for interest rate products known on Wall Street as “ISDAFIX,” U.S. derivatives regulators said Wednesday.
The case against Goldman Sachs, brought by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, was the latest in a series of broad investigations into manipulation by big banks of a variety of global benchmark rates.
To date, the CFTC has imposed penalties of over $5.2 billion stemming from these probes, which include Libor and Euribor, foreign exchange benchmarks, and the U.S. Dollar International Swaps and Derivatives Association Fix, or USD ISDAFIX.
A number of banks have also resolved parallel criminal charges related to the manipulation of various global benchmarks.
Goldman Sachs, which was also accused by the CFTC of making false reports on the benchmark rate, will settle the case without admitting or denying the charges.
Penalties don’t change the behavior of white collar criminals. Jail sentences would, but we don’t see any of that when it comes to bank execs.
On the other hand…

Told ya so lol.
kek, no you didnt, politico and reuters, both pro shill sources. this article must be ignored, this means nothing
Told ya so what G? This article missed the entire premise of what Trump is all about. Sure during the Campaign, Trump needed to call out all the problems with the Government, including he will fix it by draining the swamp. But guess What, Trump won the election, and is now the President of all these Criminals, and will inherit this mess.
So now, Trump has to shift gears, and can’t daily keep tweeting he’s declaring war on the very Government and people he is taking over. Threatening everybody they are going to get the hatchet is not a leader. Only a FOOL would assume so. It may play well for TV but not in reality.
So pull your panties out of your crotch and take breath. Trump said exactly, that you don’t telegraph your attacks in advance to the enemy, you just do it on your watch. So look for Trump to just start unrolling out his pink slips via each new cabinet member in his admin after Jan 20th.
So get real folks, nothing here, move along, just more BS Snowflake banter. And who is Gingrich anyway, A failed Speaker of the House that was removed and fined like a million dollars in sanctions, that he had to borrow from Bob Dole. And yes he was cheating on his wife when he was slamming Bill Clinton for infidelity, and the POS, even served his wife divorce papers while she lay in the hospital with cancer. He is a real POS. And probably rejected by Trump for any position in his new Admin, so now he is another snowflake crybaby noise maker.
I want to see Trumps first 100 Days Agenda. The info flow will be pouring out daily, and none of us will be able to keep up.
I agree with Zeus. So far he made some good picks, as far as I’m concerned. The three Generals are all grade A (A for American). SecState was brilliant. We really need someone who can smoothen out our relations with Russia and make the world a safer place for all. EPA? Brilliant! Pompeo for CIA? This guy is going to need a bigger shovel, but he’s the guy to dig out all the crap. Goldman Sachs? Mnuchin has been away for 17 years. Sure he has friends there. Most Wall St guys have some friends there. Not all are banksters. As for the other guy, Cohn, my jury is still out on that one, but keep your friends close and your enemies closer. Trade Council, was another great pick. As far as I can see, he’s created many new positions that the old agencies will have to report to. Good move. Pink slips will follow.
well said zeus 🙂 these backstupid idiots are just coming from every angle of attack trying to discredit him and his words.
Well hope he’s aware he would be fuking with the wrong people on this one… Maybe he takes us for snowflakes???? More like a blizzard…
Tump is a NEW type of person in the White house and we will just have to wait and see WHAT he does!! his style IS NOT ytpical and so he may do more in a different way than we are used to seeing, like i said HE can be replaced as well IF HE does NOT put thje country on track!! and clean out the scumbags!! in DC
sorry for the typos, but typing was never my strong point! LOL
Don’t worry, an article saying essentially…”someone Gingrich knows ( unnamed) told Gingrich ( who is not actually one of Trump’s advisors or even been offered a cabinet position) that Trump now is downplaying the campaign slogan of “drain the swamp.”
Man, the Trump haters are a bunch of hypocrites–they’ll bash the MSM for their spin and unsubstantiated stories but jump all over, and use as empirical truth, any anti-Trump message that fits into their little ” I told you so” thinking….no pleasing some people.
Maybe Trump should have gotten a few unaffiliated bank tellers to fill the financial positions, Joe the plumber could have been head of commerce, Clem the beet farmer could have been head of education–and on and on…as long as there are no twisting ties to any existing Corp or Bank right?
Javelin, True, some get sucked into any opinionated headline and make a judgment call. How many times have you read a headline, then read the article, and none of the article content even matches the headline premise. Its just catchy headline based on drama and opinion from a disgruntled shill trying to make himself relevant.
If all you do is read a dramatic headline then comment like some do here, sorry about your numbness and dumbness. There was one dope on here not long ago that wouldn’t even read any headlines or the article and chimed in daily like a squatter bloviating for personal attention. His swamp was drained too.
someone noting the clear and blatant discrepancy between what Turmp promised and what he is now beginning to do is called CRITICAL THINKING.
Anyone that thinks we can vote our way out of this disaster of a nation in the new century is beyond STUPID.
We need to LOOK FORWARD by looking back at history with a CLEAR UNDERSTANDING.
1. we are under the EXACT SAME SYSTEM as if we never fought 1776.
2. Badges are REDCOATS just like 1776
3. FOR PROFIT prisons.
4. CIVIL ASSET FORFEITURE.
5. Police using WAR WEAPONS against peaceful protestors. FOR DECADES.
You SEE
CORPORATIONS>>> our founders KNEW the KING would try other methods.
WHo thinks the KING OF ENGLAND gave away all his wealth and power after 1776? money = power right?
We’ll have to fight our way out, again.
Menzo, I think you’re right. MEET THE NEW BOSS, SAME AS THE OLD BOSS!
No doubt, BH
Hypocrites. What have you done in your measly lives to make America Great? Meet the new hypocrite dope, same as the old hypocrite dope chiming in.
You are such an easy tool, they do not even need to grease you with your programmed indoctrinated INSANITY. Stay off the GMO’s and the EDC’s you might have a chance at sanity then.
Agreed Zeus–if everything is the same as it has been for decades ( they claim) then their response will be the same as it has been year after year. ” I’m getting ammo and taking names!!!” “This is the final straw!!” “I really mean it this time, I’m gonna take up arms and eliminate this corruption and replace it with….(chirp, chirp, chirp…)”
YAWN
Then get started–Semper Fortis–take the lead and let us know somehow that you struck the first blow of Revolution 2.0 and that the like-minded should follow your lead–as John Belushi said before the penultimate revolt against the system in Animal House, “Let’s Do It !!! Go, Go, Go !!”
Semper Fortis …… 1000 X times up brother. Bravo to your intellect. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
I meant 1000x X thumbs up. Darn auto speller. How about 2000x Thumbs up then.
SF, some folks think things have changed. Far from the truth. We’re in for a good old fashion fookin’. No holds barred.
Right… Who the FOOK is this guy?!?!
The way i look at it is no matter what the outcome is Trump, clinton, sanders, obama, bush, carter, nixon, johonson, and so on. always keep your guard up at all times because tyranny can happen at any time any place in the world. Do not ever let your guard down not even for one sec. Way to many government players in the game now days trying to push civil unrest/civil war or even WW3. Read the Bible & Nostradamus book of his visions. if you need more info read Isaac Newton. the more you know the more you understand. to much info does not hurt to learn to understand what is going on these days. Knowledge is power but also knowledge can be used as leverage to stop tyranny from taking over.
Yep, Trump is a Zionist retread of Bush jr.. Short of divine intervention or a revolution, the USA will remain in the hands of psychopaths
I agree give him his 100 days and lets see what happens. Judging him before he even gets to sign anything official is a waste of time and typing.
Well…..what the fuck did you think was going to happen???
Its becoming clear that we are looking at a 1.5-3 year “boom” in the economy, but it will be a debt fueled boom marked by big tax cuts for the one percenters and the rest of us picking corn kernels out of the turds of the “job creators”. When the balloon finally pops, the crash that Mac keeps posting warnings about is going to hit.
At least we know what’s coming.
Why would this self important turd be any different from the rest of the self important turds?
Hint,,,,
He aint,
Hope it all comes crashing down
Explain yourself NB. Are you saying you hope Trump crashes down? WTF?
I thought Newts were lizards.
Give Trump 100 days to either honor his Gettysburg promises or not, grade him, and criticize or praise him on what happens, not on what you are manipulated to believe or scare stories.
Do you have a brain or are you just a mouthpiece for the echo chamber?
Newts are salamanders, not lizards. Amphibians vs. terrestrial.
Otherwise, right on.
Do we get to see what the President does after Inauguration Day, before we start bashing?
Smokey, I agree all any of us can do is wait and see. But I’m still stacking and keeping all my options open. Nobody needs to become complacent just because the Clintons were defeated.
Hi BH!
I agree… give the guy a chance… jeez, he hasn’t even been sworn in yet and he’s already done more in the transition period than Obama did in 8 years…
Remember, Obama said there was “no way” to “save those jobs”…
So many new voices here, all seem to buy into the same old line of BS… Listen, who better to fight the enemy, than those who QUIT working for them? I know, I used to be a manager in a Fortune 100 ‘Big Pharma’ company… I quit because they went public, and then, went evil.
Too long a story for here, but suffice it to say, nobody can ‘drain the swamp’, without having a bunch of folks who know HOW THE SWAMP WORKS… THAT, in and of itself, has defeated Presidents… including Obama… remember his promise to close down Gitmo?
In that case it worked in our favor. But, the Federal Union is a FORCE in the VA system… it has F**Ked up the whole shebang… we shall see, but, I’m willing to give him two years, before I even begin to form an opinion…
From what I’ve read, he has a team, working on the Executive orders, for his FIRST DAY…
And one last thing, that should cause minds to turn inside out…
HE ISN”T ACCEPTING THE SALARY THAT GOES WITH BEING PRESIDENT, Him or some of his cabinet…
That, more than anything else, tells me the character of the man…
Give it a F**King rest… everybody is BURNED OUT on anti TRUMP everything… time to relax, keep prepping(just in case the Globalists DO PULL SOME Sh*T)
have a cold one, on me…
🙂
PM, welcome back and I love how we get onto the same page. I’ve been having the same feeling about his Cabinet choices lately. I agree you need someone with that ‘inside knowledge’ in order to achieve a certain goal. There are reasons he made his particular choices for certain positions and let’s hope they’re for the BEST reasons. I’m also burned out on the anti-Trump shit. I’m still stacking and keeping all my options on the table. I’m also looking for the globalists to try something. The only way to stop them is to ‘take them out’. Take care.
Dep BH Tell us what great option you have? bwhahahahahaha What you gonna write your congressman? lol You have little options as you are in a small box looking out.
tz, don’t run out and buy any fireworks to celebrate with. You’ be better off baking a chocolate cake.
Give Trump 100 days to either honor his Gettysburg promises or not, grade him, and criticize or praise him on what happens, not on what you are manipulated to believe or scare stories.
If his admin is full of the same Jews running the Goldman Sachs , Federal Reserve and his son in law actually having an AIPAC office in the fucking white house why anyone thinks he is the new white Messiah?
Look at the face of the evil on top of this page and understand that he is Trump’s owner. Simply said, we got fucked this time. Let’s make America Great Again.
Off Topic:
There is a great deal of bullshit about aliens from outer space being real. Look for a BIG false flag piece of crap story that the Greys, Clones, or mk Ultra, are responsible. It will be a big fat lie. I think this may have been averted, for now, by these bankers being placed in Trump’s cabinet; but it is planned, it is bullshit. Please check out how it is being promoted by the leaders of the alt right.
Maybe I need to spend less time here, and more time in the real world,too.
Merry Christmas

Like I warned many months and threads ago; he is going to drain the swamp and fill it with snakes.
In suits. Snakes in suits.
The old saying is keep your Friends close and your enemies Closer.
Let us give Prez. Trump (man right now this sounds GOOD) some time and see what happens. Time will tell.
Sgt.
If I hire a carpenter, I don’t care if he worked for the devil himself last week. I don’t care if he drives a beat up car or that he beats his wife. I do care that he knows how to drive nails and build things the way I want him too.
I’m with Sarge. They say stupid is as stupid does but I say, A Good Man is as a Good Man Does. I don’t care who he hires, I care about results. Lets see how the boss handles it.
Summary: Stop Yer Whinin’ and just watch. When things screw up, yell. LOUDLY!
Netranger and Sarge,
Amen, and Aman.
I see good in the man, and at least he loves America. But, he was not elected to be KING…
He was elected to be a DEAL MAKER…
Lets just watch and wait, and then, TWEET… 😉
I have always wondered why all new Prez’s have to meet with the Old Man of the World, Henry Kissinger… we shall have to wait and see if he gets ‘JFK’d. If so, then, maybe, the world will shift under our feet. If ‘they’ get to him, then, I’ll be ready to start hanging suits from trees…
Piper Michael – To defeat your foes is to thoroughly know your foes inside and out. Trump said he will talk with everybody, friend or foe. Hey what a brilliant Idea. The big Failure Obama would never talk to Taiwan’s leader, so it didn’t hurt China’s feelings as their China One policy, an oppressive agenda. Trump will do as he sees fit. I give him Thumbs up Kudos!!
Hire a good man, then give him the room and space for him to work his craft. Trump is just getting started, so chill out everybody. Right now, everybody should Focus on draining your own personal swamp, like ending negative relationships who drag you down. Quit smoking, loose that 75 lbs, rid the negatives in your life and replace them with new things, like learning a new craft, skill or trade. Do you have a bicycle> Go for a ride and get into shape. Trump will take care of what he needs to do. On his watch.
This headline neglects to point out that it’s NEWT GINGRICH who is saying Trump has backed off the “Drain the Swamp” and, further he said on NPR!!!!
Just for grins, can anyone give me a list of people Trump could have chosen that ARE NOT GLOBALISTS??? Look around, People. The globalist ROT has infiltrated EVERYWHERE in this country. Trump couldn’t choose non-globalists no matter what his choice.
BUT — here’s the point worth considering. If it IS Trump’s intention to Drain the Swamp, he still has to run a country. So, he’s going to have to MANAGE these people. Tell me WHAT PRESIDENT has EVER managed the Executive Branch, instead of handing off said management to the Deep State/ Shadow government denizens in the wheelhouse of the government operations — that being the State Department. And for that whorehouse, he’s brought in probably the most-high powered guy around the world to clean out that rat’s nest of hidden control. Rex Tillerson.
Now, the argument could be made that Tillerson is from the nexus of the globalist corporatocracy, connected at the hip to all of this through the interlocking directorates of the global megacorporate world. But, why would Tillerson come to the State Department if he was part and parcel to the cabal?? I think he wouldn’t. He’d simply let the Deep State finish it’s plunder and annihilation of the Sovereign United States.
On the other hand, if Trump knows, and I think he HAS TO KNOW, that the dismantling of the State Department’s control nexus is the only way he can ever reclaim America from the globalist cabal. then how would he do that? WHO could he pick to head State that would have enough experience, gravitasse, and presence to tackle what has to be the nastiest, most entrenched bureaucracy in the world??? It would take a guy of Tillerson’s stature. Romney couldn’t do it — he needs to be liked too much, he’s a ‘pleaser’ which makes him too weak to take on these vipers… Tillerson, however, could cut through the Kudzu with ease.
So, the real question is, WHOSE SIDE IS TILLERSON ON??? And when I listen to every speech or presentation I can find on the guy, one thing stands out. Rex Tillerson has a SOUL.
And I think that says more about what Trump has assembled than anything else. These appointments ARE of those with “insider” characteristics. Trump needs their competence. But I also think Trump is a cutthroat SOB in his own rite. And as long as he can manage these people, he can control their results. And I do think he’s sharp enough to figure out how to keep them in check. Let’s NOT FORGET who and what he cut through like a hot knife through butter to get where he is. To underestimate him is a fool’s errand.
So, Newt: STFU and stop trying to invent an official position that you have no authority to assume. You, NEWT, are a globalist rat to the core. But delusions won’t save your sorry butt.
Tasked with draining the swamp and then refilling it with ‘Snakes In Suits’ he is bringing in pro-GMO people, not too mention Steve Mnunchin who hates seniors and feels that they are a non tax-paying drain on society. He wants to privatize Medicare/SS. We know the only people who will benefit from that plan are not the recipients of it.
No one with a soul wants to work for Trump. That is why I had been saying for the past few months he will not be able to bring in good people. He will drain the swamp and fill it with more alligators. No one with a moral code would even consider working for him. As I had said many times before here both candidates sucked, not just Hillary.
I live near NYC and have heard the stories about his shenanigans and empty promises for over 30 years, stories that never made it past the local news. Twenty years ago we were all worried he would run for NYC Mayor. Now this.
I fully agree with you. If the screwed up backgrounds of these cabinet picks are so easily diseminated here, surely Trump knows their background. You don’t need 100 days in office to know that hus cabinet is a who’s who of psychopaths. I hope the people bashing us for being critical apologize when the “100 days” is up.
Newt is envious, and is simply upset that Mr. Trump saw right through him…
Unfortunately, there are a lot of congresscritters that may have to be taken out in 2018 to finish the job. So, in my book, keep track of those who vote against the reforms or actively oppose, like McCain and Lindsey.
I talked to my own congresscritter, personally, after running up on him in Walmart!, just before the convention… he WOULD NOT COMMIT to supporting Mr. Trump. I saw in those eyes then… fear. He FEARS the voters, and it shined through his eyes. I just told him “you guys better not pull any funny business at the convention”…
So far, so good, but, I will give Mr. Trump, two years to see what he does… before forming an opinion.
I am most interested in his promise to give us Vets a way out of the VA system… what a freaking joke.
I just found out, that Obama STOLE 2.6 BILLION $ FROM THE VA budget in order to fund his Syrian refugee program…
Grrrr… nobody, is as bad as that POS, except for Hillary “our vets are taken care of just fine” Clinton.
The system has gotten MUCH worse in just the last year, even low level employees, nurses and techs, are complaining, and leaving…
“I will give Mr Trump two years to see what he does before forming an opinion”….oh your opinion of him will be formed long before two years. For someone who is not transparent at all you’ll still be able to see right through him… long before then. And if eyes wide open, it’ll be sooner than later, nowhere near two years. As non-transparent and secretive as he is, still won’t take that long to figure out he’s a conman on the take.
And I see you have already formed yours, based on MSM bs.
I only see a man who loves America, and a witch who was a globalist shill, like her husband. Who, btw, was the one who signed NAFTA, because he took many millions of campaign finance from China…
It will take at least two years, for his actions to either match his rhetoric, or not. He is not going to be king, like trolls think.
Trump is a big dangerous ass. The American voters were hoodwinked again. Absolutely incredible psyop to get their choice elected. As soon as he won the election the deceit ramped up. He will give the push to limit free speech on sites such as SHTF. Of course neither choice was acceptable, I mean come on this is a freak show playing out. I never played Trump any attention before this coup aside from a brief glimpse of his stupid TV you’re fired bs. From Chicago mobsters to NY mobsters. Trump f’ing sucks.
aljamo- So where did you concoct that nonsense. lol What have you done in your life to make America great? This site is becoming littered with uninformed dolts.
There is a old Bee gees song: ” I started a joke”
1st Line : I started a joke which started the whole world crying
There will always be some swamp.
There was an article posted on this site by Michael Snyder
saying that all of a sudden prepping has ceased as if a Nuclear Bomb had gone off.
Guns sales had significantly dropped.
Could be part of a deception.
Anyway. We will see.
This headline neglects to point out that it’s NEWT GINGRICH who is saying Trump has backed off the “Drain the Swamp” and, further he said on NPR!!!!

Obama wasn’t a disappointment . We all knew what he would do? Jimmy Carter didn’t make a lot of promises? Donald Trump has a choice . To go down as one of the greatest presidents that saved our nation. Or to make a couple more billion and be the worst lieing traitor since Benadict Arnold. Disgracing himself and his family. Maybe hiring these Goldman Sachs boys is like. only an Apache can catch an Apache ? They have the inside info . The names and dates? But need secret service protection before they talk? I find it hard to believe Trump would betray us for money that he dosent really need?
Trump is also hiring his own personal security to co-inside with the Secret Service. And he is paying for this out of his own pocket. What this means is, these special security personnel force, can do things the Police or the Secret service can’t do. Like remove disrupters from public speaking engagements as they did during his campaign speech rallies. They will not be carrying guns, just big brutal force of strong men forming a circle around Trump to remove the external threats so he can do his job.
Report: Trump Plans To Maintain His Own Private Security Force At The White House
By: Andrew Husband • 12.19.16 • 22 Comments
ht tp://uproxx.com/news/trump-private-security-force-white-house/
This should prove interesting for his coming transition into the White House, as a new report suggests the New York real estate mogul intends on maintaining his own private security force while in office — despite the presence of the U.S. Secret Service.
According to Politico, the president-elect first broke tradition with “all modern presidents and presidents-elect” by continuing to employ his own private security firm following his election night victory. What’s more, Trump plans on keeping “at least some members of the team” on hand following his forming administration’s official transition into the White House on Friday, January 20, 2017.
** I would do the same thing as Trump is doing, as all the Nut jobs out there publically declare to end his life. I would hire the biggest badass ninja’s, or Bikers out there to maintain peace.
Trump will also get the compliments of 2 Million Steel Horse Biker Riders in DC on Jan 20th and make a circle around Trump’s inauguration, to eject the DisruptJ20 snowflakes from causing a scene.
aljamo, I think we were led by our noses. But maybe some good will come along. Upshot is I still posess what I need to reek havoc.
I think we’re going to need a bigger swamp.
Same swamp…… Different frogs.
SAME SWAMP…..DIFFERENT FROGS
Its a big swamp
SOCIALIST ILLINOIS JUST LOST MORE PEOPLE THAN ANY OTHER STATE. WHEE! THIS SOCIALISM THIINGY IS JUST GRAND, ISN’T IT!
CHICAGO – Illinois lost 114,144 residents to other states from July 2015 to July 2016, causing Illinois to suffer more population loss than any other state in the nation, new data from the U.S. Census Bureau showed Tuesday morning. The massive exodus to other states caused Illinois’ overall population to decline by 37,508 people, the U.S. Census reported.
“Picture the entire city of Peoria packing up and moving across state lines – that’s how severe Illinois’ out-migration was over the last year,” said Michael Lucci, vice president of policy at the Illinois Policy Institute.
Lucci attributed the high number of moves to other states to the lack of legislature reforms that would improve the state’s business climate. “People are leaving Illinois at record rates. They’re tired of watching the state’s pension debt climb as lawmakers ignore the problem. They’re tired of an expensive workers’ compensation system, and a dangerously ill economic climate. It’s time for lawmakers to make massive reforms and send a strong signal that the direction of Illinois is changing,” Lucci said.
Illinois is the only Midwestern state that experienced population loss in 2016, for the third year in a row…”Countless reports find residents fleeing Illinois for states with with lower taxes and better job opportunities,” a release said. “Heavy population losses on Census migration reports have always been followed by IRS migration reports showing the people who left took substantial earning power with them. The most recent IRS data show that Illinois loses $32,000 of taxable income every 5 minutes, on net.
In a column posted last week, Trump economic adviser Stephen Moore suggested Illinois is among the “blue states” that voted for Hillary Clinton and are losing population annually. “They are the loser states. They are all progressive. High taxes rates. High welfare benefits. Heavy regulation. Environmental extremism. Super minimum wages. Most outlaw energy drilling,” he wrote in an op-ed published in theWashington Times.
“The whole left-wing playbook is on display in the Hillary states. And people are leaving in droves. Day after day, they are being bled to death. So much for liberalism creating a worker’s paradise,” he wrote.

SOCIALIST ILLINOIS JUST LOST MORE PEOPLE THAN ANY OTHER STATE. WHEE! THIS SOCIALISM THIINGY IS JUST GRAND, ISN’T IT! Yep and they all moved to states we live in. Now they will want to change the laws to make our states just like Illinois. Just like the assholes that come from Massachusetts to Maine because they love the serenity, but then want to change the laws to be just like Massachusetts and close down all the fishing industries because they stink up the neighborhood and on and on.
Shortly after Trump won the election, he began backing off his promise to prosecute Hillery and he began making OTHER promises to his newly found friends in Washington. He painted himself into a corner, so to speak, because he ended up making conflicting promises to each group. He would now need to drop the promises he made to the faithful ones that voted for him and adhere to the promises he made his new friends, OR…keep his first promises and drop the promises he made to his new friends in Washington.
Well…it looks like he is leaning towards his new friends in Washington.
Many people think ‘Making America Great Again’ meant having Trump in office. Actually what made America Great Again was when THE PEOPLE stood up and voted out the scum. And this is what will make America Great Again…Government by the people. For the people. And Of the people.
Trump should know that he was not put in office by the PAC’s, SuperPAC’s or even the SuperRich elite. All of them were FOR Hillery. But she is no more. Trump should know that he was elected by nothing more than a bunch of ‘deplorables’ according to Hillery. And it is these same ‘deplorables’ that can vote him out.
But for now…I want to watch and see what happens.
Stayout. Trump can’t prosecute Hillary. His Atty Gen and Justice Dept will though. Trump isn’t even Pres yet, so STFU you dopes and watch the Master run the Table. You think he is going to telegraph his every move, to appease you stupid dopes so you can feel good about yourselves and how you voted? The Minions here have Crumbs for Brains.
He didn’t go to Vietnam, he came up to be drafted five different times, and five different times he used his connections to stay out of it. He is a coward. Unlike my two Mexican buddy’s who died in a shitty jungle in Vietnam.
The Swamp is as the Swamp DOES!
As for Mr. Trump, he keeps his swampers “even closer”.
So pay attention, boys and girls, to his playbook.
Head on a swivel, and UP your prepATUDE!
Eppe, I know you are in a better place and I miss you terribly. Pray for us!
Merry Christmas, everyone. Yes, Virginia, you BET Santa was a Prepper!

Eppe the Garlic Toothpick stabbing Ninja Assassin fell on his own toothpick sword. Karma Baby!! Live and learn.
how does newt admit something for Trump?
May i remind you to look at who these statements were coming from… groups like politico,reuters and others whose only goal is to subvert the new government about to be instituted
While i am hoping that he does what he says he is going to do i would much rather have him in office than Hillary.
Look a lot of the players in the Obama admin were just as Goldman Sachs attached as the the Donalds. This mess is going to take awhile to fix,especially since Obama is still appointing socialist and Muslim Brotherhood members to offices in our country. Besides; the old adage of keep your enemies close comes to mind.I don’t like the GOLDMAN SCUM either but they are as entrenched in our government as much as any other group. So lets wait and see what happens and keep a very close eye on who is making statements and to what agenda they may be following.I think many of us here are intelligent enough to figure out what is happening and wise enough to sit back and see how this unfolds as the people take their place in the government.
Excuse my candor, but the reason we’re in this shithole is because most people can’t think past the end of their nose. This article proves that there are still “purists” out there that think you have to be “ordained” in some way to do go. Just because someone worked for Goldman Sachs does not mean they’re part of refilling the swamp. The simple minded “Oh, he worked for [XyZ Bad Corp] and so he’s a bad guy.” stuff means nothing. I work for a public school corp. Many have labeled me in the past as pro-Big Brother, Pro-high taxes, Pro-Education, pro-this or that. In reality, I’m just the opposite. I stay at my job because its a good job with good benefits *AND* I get to affect the education system in a positive way. The fact is I’d be fired instantly if many of my views got out. I am not anti-public education but that doesn’t mean I’m pro-[all the bullshit they embody].
Here is the deal: I work for Public Education but I side with The People and not The Establishment. These people that Trump is hiring may be The NetRangers of the businesses where they work and are posted. Rather than whining and griping about his appointments maybe we need to study them a bit. Instead of looking at who employed these people, lets look at their views and their actions. Stop being so superficial. Many of you sound like liberals: yapping off about this or that before actually looking at who they appointed and only worrying about who they worked for before. Get a grip!
I really don’t get the big surprise.
We had a choice between Hillary and Trump. Where would we be with Hillary? She’ld be bringing in hundreds of thousands of black Muslims and Middle Eastern men. The gun owners would be unable to buy ammunition. And just about everyone would be labeled with some fault making them a criminal if they own a gun.
So what if Trump doesn’t clean out the bankers right away. At least we aren’t being ordered to adopt Sharia Law. Down the road, if you warriors are serious about cleaning the swamp, maybe one of you will find a way to successfully End the Fed. I will be happy if Trump ends abortion. That is something he might do. He would be wise to end common core in Education, too.
Be patient, and realistic.

The fastest route to a “sure thing” Civil War, is BETRAYAL at this point. The Democrats pushed us there 95% with Obama and his merry band of Traitors. But the hot Civil War option never came off the table just because Trump won. If you take your focus of the long term objective and freedom, then you are part of the problem why we are so phucked up to begin with.
Liberty and Freedom cannot be traded away for anything, and if you are OK with that, you deserve what you get.
Once you get to Washington, the swamp becomes a hot tub.
Let’s not forget here, who Gingrich’s best pal was before ‘the blue dress’ showed up.

Newt was compromised the longest of anyone on his campaign team. And let’s also not forget his attack ads on Romney had an utterly bizarre communist Feels Over Reals strain to them. Rather than attack his policies, he was “a mean old grinch”
Dealt from the Clinton playbook, definitely.
My honest hope is that whenever Trump goes to a different country Mattis drains the swamp in his stead…by throwing a full blown General Ripper coup.
The Trumpbot boot licking cowards got PLAYED, BAMBOOZLED, HORNSWAGGLED, SCREWED, FUCKED OVER, LIED TOO, and treated like a used condom, as the Trumpbot tools and stooges were used to fuck the opposition and then they were thrown in the trash by Orange Satan!!!!
You will never hear a programmed indoctrinated Trumpbot coward boot licker admit they were played like a used condom, because PRIDE, EGO, and ENGINEERED MASS DELUSION will keep the Godless Trumpbot cowards worshiping and praising Orange Satan and his Corporatist Fascist Military Junta Death Squad Cabinet.
The coward boot lickers will praise and worship psychopath Orange Satan, even as the Police State hell on earth moves into the final years of complete collapse under his direction with Martial Law and Gun Confiscation. The cowards will worship and praise Orange Satan as he initiates atrocities, and the FINAL SOLUTION culling of the dumbed down slaves by the psychopaths.
newt gingrich is one of those “insiders” he berates…kinda the pot calling the kettle black. I place zero stock in anything these dickwads have to say about each other. I say put them in the gladiator arena and let them go at it.
BOTTOM LINE:
Why would Orange Satan drain the inner bowels of the pits of hell in Washington DC, when he can just fill it with more psychopath demons???
THE INNER BOWELS OF THE PITS OF HELL WILL NEVER BE DRAINED OF SATAN, DEMONS, AND PSYCHOPATHS….WASHINGTON DC IS THEIR PLAYGROUND WHERE THEY REAP THE MOST SOULS!!!!
Ron – I agree. And BTW, it’s called a Pathocracy. And that is what we really have and have had for the past decades.
TPTB would have never allowed anyone to be selected POTUS who would not push their evil agendas forward. No one, no way. TPTB would never allow that to happen. They were certain about the candidate from early on, or the candidate would have been nixed right from the get-go. As a result we have ‘Psychopaths in Power’ who are routinely making critical decisions for non-disordered people = Pathocracy. That’s really what we have.
I like that “PATHOCRACY”, I will use that from now on. It describes the complete psychopathic control of the criminal US Government perfectly!!!
This web site: SHTF should be ashamed of themselves! They’re reporting new news just like mainstream media reports it! SHTF is SUPPOSE to give truthers some inside info and not align with your typical lying like a rug mainstream media! SHTF SHOULD say, nothing to see here folks! Trump is not going to tell the world his GAME PLAN! If Trump started saying who he’s going to be puting out of work and firing, the other side would have the opportunity to get ready and prepare. Instead of saying, don’t worry, Trump isn’t even in office yet, give him a break, this stupid shit hole site is parroting what MSM says daily! It’s sickening! I’m DONE with SHTF web site. I came here to find out if this site is going to continue being a lying sack of flaming shit, and sure enough…..they are!!
Grab that pussy
Spare me the dramatic load of BS. One big happy crime family and all this is nothing more than changing seats on the Titanic and its all carefully planned. If it were good for we the slaves then they would not let it happen.
So lets welcome the new Rothschild puppet. Donald Trump who btw is related to Hillary Clinton.
