Really? Ted Cruz shutdown the government? How did he do that, when ONLY the PREZ has the power to do that? And is your concern about taxpayer dollars limited to when the government is shut down?

How much does the government cost when it is in operation?

Cruz does not look like an anti-establishment guy. He never was. Cruz is bought by big banks and big oil. Cruz can be bought. His line of being an outsider is another lie of Cruz. He is now in bed with the establishment seling his soul and becoming a puppet for Washington. Cruz fits right in with the corrupt lying creeps in Washington.

..and Trump is anti-establishment? LOL!! Please. Trump has spent decades being the VERY definition of a crony capitalist. Bribing corrupt politicians for favors like building permits and using the very immigrant visa program he says he's now against. He's spent years outsourcing the manufacture of his entire Trump collection to CHINA and MEXICO rather than building here and hiring Americans. He's also spent decades funding and supporting politicians and things he claims he's now against like illegal immigration, Obamacare, sanctuary cities, Planned Parenthood etc...Look at his portfolio, he's invested in and involved with every big Wall St bank and plenty of major corporations run by lobbyists. Trump is a lying, hypocritical fraud who has gotten his hands far more dirty than any politician because he's been playing BOTH sides.

I totally agree - IF there had been ANY type of "vote" by the Citizens in Colorado - this would not even be discussed at all. That didn't happen - the Back Room Political Elite in Colorado cancelled the "vote" and THEY made the decision. There was NOTHING to "win", only something to decide by the Political Elite in the Republican Party. Cruzers consider the Establishment Tweeting "we won" by the Colorado Back Room boys to an #AntiTrump Twitter a "win" and so does Cruz.

They are all so proud of cutting the nasty voters out of the process. Politics in our Transformed America.

If this says anything, its that neither Hillary or Cruz can be at all trusted.
Absolutely. But it's been this way for a long time with Reagan as the exception and that's why they forced him to take Bush as a running mate then tried to kill him.


What's happened is after the fall of the Soviet Union at the end of the Reagan administration and the beginning of Bush's the world's elites (aka. International banksters who financed the Russian Revolution by giving the "revolutionaries" millions in cash to operate through J.P. Morgan and other banks as well as other elites connected to the Banking families knew it was time to start merging the West into a one world communists police state. Hence Bush Sr's famous "A New World Order" speech right after the "official" dissolution of the Soviet Union.) You'll do very well to note that the next election is where Ross Perot tried to warn the American people what was coming with NAFTA and GAAT etc... That is no coincidence. Don't forget they oiled the skids with the opening of China during the Nixon Presidency to prepare for when they were ready to dissolve the U.S.S.R. It's also no coincidence that the wages stopped keeping up with inflation around the end of the Cold War. As someone else on this site noted they needed to keep the sheep happy while purporting to fight international communism. When that threat was gone and it was time to make us more communist that need ended.


The need to keep the façade of free elections is ending also. Which is what we're talking about in this post. They don't feel the need to hide that the people never really had a vote. They were just allowed to vote between establishment candidates that the "party" aka elite deemed acceptable. The will of the people means nothing in this country any more and has not for a long, long time.


I mean you have a criminal in Hillary in Clinton who should be indicted and serve prison time but instead will be installed as President and serve the elites that shield her from prosecution since she is above the law because she serves the people who control things.


This is exactly how communists countries are run. The "party" picks the people to "run" for the equivalent of president and then the people accept it or can vote on the pre-chosen candidates. Communists countries also have a few people at the top who live lavishly while the rest struggle to attain the basics in life. The party bosses chose candidates and live like aristocrats while the people just acquiesce and live like peasants. Sound familiar?


This is how the entire world operates now!!!! Including the U.S. now it's just in your face. And they're coming for the free speech and guns next when they get whatever NWO order puppet onto the Supreme Court which has not followed the constitution in decades.


The good thing about all of this is more people will see, and a lot see now, is that this government is criminal, has lost all legitimacy for anyone with eyes to see and in former times would be facing revolt but with all the technology and T.V. shows and the dumbing down of the sheep through the Communist Dept. of Education etc.. is instead preparing for another "election" where the peasants will be given the privilege of voting themselves deeper into tyranny.


Sr. Lucia (one of the Fatima seeers) said the whole world would become communist and Krushchev said we will conquer you without firing a shot. Both have proved to be prescient. For it was the Rothschild family and illuminists themselves who groomed and financed Marx and financed the Russian Revolution as an anti-thesis to the West. Now is the time for the synthesis which is what we've been experiencing since the "fall" of the Soviet Union.


As you noted above they're just taking the gloves off now as they don't feel the need to hide the fact anymore that these political parties are just another tool of the elite to hide their control. Soon they will not hide it at all as they're not hiding in Europe anymore and are prosecuting people for speech and letting terrorists into their countries which is being led by a "former" Communist in Merkel. And in the not distant future the prophecies of worldwide war and revolutions throughout Europe will come to pass. It's all going to happen and is happening. Will people stand up or will they go to gulags or FEMA camps. I know my choice!!!!


Lock and Load!!!!!!

Even Cruz fans, Democrats, undecided folks should be freaking out over this. WTF is going on? This China where the party tells us who is elected. WTF!!!! Everyone push this story today to everyone!
I just explained very, very briefly above. They're making the whole world into a communists police state. It's just becoming more apparent now.


Anyone who gives up their guns at this point is a fool who is already a slave. Anyone who wants people's guns taken is a traitor to this country and an enemy as well as an enemy of humanity its self.

Cruz is getting really good at stealing votes. Cruz stole votes from Ben Carson, tried to steal votes from Rubio saying he dropped out, and now Cruz has stolen every delegate in Colorado with his lies and kicked out the ones who supported Trump... they were not allowed to be delegates or speak and took their vote away at the caucus.
