While actors are just people, we know many are simple closet socialists and communists. However, we have seen several like Kurt Russell and James Woods who have been very vocal in their opposition to the current administration. Now, actor Jean-Claude Van Damme has voiced his opinion that there is no way that Donald Trump will be allowed to be president by families like the Rothschilds and the Rockefellers.
The Belgian actor appeared on Le Grand Journal and gave his specific thoughts on the US race for the White House. Specifically he addressed both Donald Trump and Ted Cruz and declared, “Well, they are not going to win.”
“You still have the Rockefeller, people like the Rothschild, those big families that dominate continents….these are families that rise in 1827, a family with five sons that expands, it’s above everything we’re talking (about) tonight,” Van Damme added.
Van Damme spoke about those candidates who are controlled by special interests, which is seen in their multi-million dollar funding for their campaign and someone like Donald Trump, who is basically funding his own campaign.

After throwing her support behind Florida Sen. Marco Rubio in the 2016 Republican presidential primary, South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley was forced to re-evaluate the field after Rubio suspended his campaign Tuesday night.
Looking at the remaining candidates vying for the GOP nomination, Haley said on Wednesday that she is now “privately fighting for” Texas Sen. Ted Cruz to win the primary election . . .
Nikki Haley backing Cruz: "The only thing I can say now is my hope and my prayer is that Sen. Cruz can come through this” via @MegKinnardAP:
“Ask me when the time comes again,” she said. “But as of now, I strongly believe I will support the Republican nominee.”
At this point in the race, however, Haley said that her “hope and … prayer is that Sen. Cruz can come through this.”
Though Trump picked up key primary victories in Tuesday’s elections, Haley said she still believes he can be defeated. (Read more from “Right After Rubio Dropped out, Gov. Nikki Haley Reveals Who She’s Backing Now” HERE)
By Kevin Whitson. In a multi-part series special, former Fox News talk show host Glenn Beck exposed George Soros to the world as the man behind machine, the political puppeteer who was actually controlling U.S. politics, news, financial markets, among a myriad of other things.
Beck’s career at Fox News came to a screeching halt shortly after the exposé making the accusations aired, a result he said was due in part to his commentary about Soros.
There’s no question that leftist liberal Soros is heavily involved in the Democratic campaigns for presidency, but some may be surprised to learn some Republican candidates are also on the take. Gov. John Kasich (R-OH) has been the beneficiary of Soros funds. In a tweet by Scottie Nell Hughes, Hughes revealed Kasich has received $202,700 from Soros’ fund management.
In a reply to Hughes’ tweet, another Twitter user tweeted Donald Trump was also a recipient of Soros’ funds. A user named Pete pointed Hughes to a New York Times article from 2004. In the article, it was revealed George Soros invested $160 million into Trump’s Chicago skyscraper project.
So, at least two of the remaining four Republican candidates have done business with Soros. Yet Soros spoke out against Trump in January 2016 saying he was, “doing the work of ISIS,” by alienating Muslims with his disparaging comments to bar them from entering the U.S. (Read more from “Exposed: Sinister Source Donated $200K to THIS Republican Candidate” HERE)

Ohio Saves John Kasich — Again
By James Downie. Last August, at the first Republican presidential debate, Fox News moderator Megyn Kelly asked Ohio Gov. John Kasich to defend acquiescing to the Affordable Care Act’s Medicaid expansion. Normally, it would have been an awkward question for Kasich. Many Republican governors — including several of Kasich’s rivals on the stage that night — have rejected the expansion, denying some three million Americans health insurance. It is an article of faith for many Republicans that the expansion, as part of Obamacare, must be fought tooth and nail. In most debates, Kasich’s unapologetic defense would have gotten him boos or at best scattered applause.
Luckily for Kasich, the first Republican debate was held in Cleveland, Ohio. The Republicans in the audience, for whom Kasich has been a popular figure for decades, loudly cheered him. Thanks in part to their applause, many observers gave Kasich positive reviews — good for keeping donors on board, at the very least. And on Tuesday Ohio Republicans came through for Kasich again. He won 47 percent of the vote in the state’s GOP primary, beating Donald Trump by eleven points and handing the frontrunner his biggest defeat (by delegate count) of the primary. Despite never coming close to double digits in any national poll before mid-February or close to winning any other primary contest, Kasich has somehow managed to become one of the last three GOP candidates standing.

By Julie Bykowicz. Donald Trump won a decisive victory in Florida’s primary Tuesday night, forcing home-state Sen. Marco Rubio to abandon the race for the Republican presidential nomination. The brash billionaire also picked up North Carolina and Illinois, but faltered in Ohio.
Ohio Gov. John Kasich notched his first and only victory of the primary season by carrying his home state, but he has the fewest delegates of anyone still in the running and had virtually no electoral path to the nomination.
Trump, holding forth at his resort Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, urged Republicans to unify in support of him. They are reluctant to do so. (Read more from “After Discouraging Loss in Florida, Marco Rubio Suspends Campaign” HERE)

Marco Rubio Suspends Campaign After Losing Florida Primary
By David Sutta. “I want to congratulate Donald Trump on a big victory in Florida.” With those words, Marco Rubio opened his speech to supporters in Miami Tuesday night after learning Trump won the GOP primary in Rubio’s home state.
“While it is not God’s plan that I be President in 2016 or maybe ever, and while today while today my campaign is suspended, the fact that I’ve even come this far is event of how special America truly is and all the reason more while we must do all that we can to ensure that this nation remains a special place. I ask the people do not give in to the fear, do not give in to the frustration.”
With those words, Marco Rubio’s quest for the White House came to an end. Inside a packed lobby at Florida International University’s arena, Miami’s native son sounded like he left it all on the court.
“I just want you to know there is nothing more we could have done. There is nothing more you could have done. You worked as hard as anyone worked. I want you to know we worked as hard that we ever could.” (Read more from “Marco Rubio Suspends Campaign After Losing Florida Primary” HERE)

House Speaker Paul Ryan decided not to run for the Republican presidential nomination in 2016, but he declined to rule out accepting it if a deadlocked party convention turns to him this summer.
“You know, I haven’t given any thought to this stuff,” Ryan said Tuesday night in an exclusive interview at the Capitol. “People say, ‘What about the contested convention?’ I say, well, there are a lot of people running for president. We’ll see. Who knows.”
Ryan, who ran in 2012 as Mitt Romney’s vice presidential nominee, has taken no public actions to encourage the idea that he could become a candidate. To the contrary, a political committee set up to draft him into the 2016 race recently shut down at the urging of the speaker’s aides . . .
Yet Donald Trump, even as he has established himself as the clear front-runner in the Republican race, still faces a challenge in rounding up the 1,237 delegates he needs to be nominated on the first ballot at the Republican convention in Cleveland. Trump’s challenge was steepened by Gov. John Kasich’s victory in Tuesday’s winner-take-all Ohio primary — which keeps Kasich in a three-way nomination fight with Trump and U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas. (Read more from “Paul Ryan Just Made a Completely Unexpected Announcement About GOP Nomination” HERE)

Three out of every four Americans say Congress should not increase spending. That’s not 73 percent of the Tea Party, or 73 percent of the Republican Party. That’s 73 percent of all Americans who say Congress should not increase federal spending.
Republicans seem to have missed that message.
Since 2013, the GOP has consistently proposed budgets that increase spending, and not by just a little. Consider that the Republican budget for the 2014 fiscal year, offered by then-Budget Committee Chairman Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., proposed $966 billion in base spending. This year, Speaker Ryan is pushing a budget that proposes $1.07 trillion.
That means in four years, Republicans have increased their proposal by $104 billion.
Of course, these issues are never really black and white, and there are lots of arguments that can (and will) be made about how the sequester, the filibuster, and the Democrats are to blame for this increase in federal spending.
But what is most troubling about the increased level of spending—it’s that these higher spending numbers are supported exclusively by Republicans, the party of fiscal discipline.
Consider that the president does not have to sign the budget resolution, and the filibuster does not apply to its consideration. Budget resolutions are strictly partisan affairs with almost no procedural constraints. The massive increases, therefore, cannot be blamed on anyone but the GOP.
This, by all accounts, is a shocking reality. Ryan, after all, has a prominent record of fiscal conservatism. So sterling is his reputation that 57 percent of the American people told pollsters they do not “expect House Speaker Paul Ryan and Congress to increase spending.”
Why, then, are the House Republicans pushing so hard to pass a budget at $1.07 trillion? For years, they have promised to be the party that reins in the federal debt and deficit, and yet they are proposing a $50 billion year-to-year increase in their own budget.
House Republicans have lost the forest for the trees.
Frustrated by Democrats and intimidated by a complicit media, the Republican leadership is looking for a way out of the conflict that invariably comes when one tries to exert fiscal discipline. Each budgeting document is seen as an exit ramp away from a public squabble with the Democrats rather than a path forward to responsible budgeting.
Around every budgeting corner, Republican leaders see a false choice between the Democrats’ shutdown narrative and an increase in spending. Instead of acting as visionary leaders, Republicans have reduced themselves to the party that incessantly searches for a clever solution to each Democratic trap. The cost is steep; the party of fiscal discipline is now producing budgets full of runaway federal spending.
As my colleague Paul Winfree and Heritage President Jim DeMint wrote recently, the budget is an opportunity for Republicans to present a vision to the country—one that is responsible, compassionate, and prudent in its priorities and spending. A budget that increases spending by $50 billion in one year is not that vision.
As conservatives, we must demand better. (For more from the author of “Republicans Are Addicted to Increasing Federal Spending” please click HERE)

Radio host Rush Limbaugh warned his millions of listeners on Tuesday that members of the Republican establishment have a blueprint for foisting former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush on the American people despite his disastrous campaign.
Donald Trump is well on his way to winning the 1,237 delegates needed to becoming the 2016 Republican presidential nominee, but Limbaugh said a liberal reading of the convention committee rules may allow GOP insiders to deny the billionaire his due. He cited a Daily Caller article published Sunday that said first-ballot delegates are not bound to vote for the candidate that won their state’s primaries.
“I’m just telling you, if they succeed in this, if they deny Trump or Ted Cruz 1,237 delegates by the end of the primary process, I’m here to tell you Jeb Bush is gonna be the nominee. That’s what they’re gonna do. That’s what they’ve always wanted,” said Limbaugh. “Jeb himself said back on Dec. 14, 2014, when this whole process started, Jeb said that his strategy was to lose the primaries and win the nomination. And everybody said, ‘What? How you gonna do that?’”
The conservative icon said Ohio Gov. John Kasich will falsely believe he will be picked to sideline Trump if he can win his home state.
“If not Jeb, they’ll go Romney.” said Limbaugh.”The GOP is throwing every egg in its basket in Ohio today. They’re saying that the future of the party is in Ohio today. The future of the GOP hangs in Ohio. What that means is Kasich’s gotta win Ohio. If Kasich wins Ohio, the establishment is still alive, and that way they can engineer a contested convention where they run, that they can then install whoever they want.” (Read more from “Jeb’s Revenge? Rush Outlines Establishment’s Anti-Trump Plot” HERE)
It’s pretty easy to size up a politician by his priorities. And in the case of Ohio Governor John Kasich, he’s prioritized illegal immigrants over his own constituents.
It should come as no surprise that Kasich pledged to pass amnesty for illegal aliens during the first 100 days of his administration instead of deporting all criminal aliens and punishing sanctuary cities. These are the same values he championed as governor of Ohio.
On July 27, 2015, Juan Emmanuel Razo, an illegal alien from Mexico, raped and murdered Margaret Kostelnik in a small township 30 miles northeast of Cleveland. On the same day, Razo shot and wounded another woman in front of her two children and attempted to rape a 14-year old girl in a nearby park. Just yesterday, in fact, AP reported that Razo might be spared the death penalty after agreeing to a plea deal.
Razo had no prior criminal record (aside from the inconvenient fact that he was in the country illegally) so he was not picked up by Border Patrol when local cops apprehended him just three weeks prior to his shooting spree. Having committed no previous crime, Razo would be a prime candidate for John Kasich’s amnesty. Not surprisingly, Kasich had nothing to say about this murder in his home state until he was pressed on it by Fox News, even though he was a sitting governor who was already running for president. In fact, he called such deportations (those with no prior criminal record) “inhumane.”
What is truly inhumane is a politician who cares more about foreign nationals here illegally than his own constituents. Kasich has long supported illegal immigration. Yes, he is such a political fossil that he was even around in 1986 to vote for the infamous Simpson-Mazzoli amnesty. That amnesty, and the subsequent three-decade cycle of open borders and amnesty that ensued, has resulted in endless cases like the tragedy of Margaret Kostelnik. Yet Kasich, rather than learn his lesson like many of those who supported the 1986 bill, wants to repeat the cycle and encourage more illegal immigration. All because he cares more about the political elites and the sentiments of the special interests than his own constituents.
In November 2014, during the same week Obama announced his executive amnesty, Kasich echoed Obama’s talking points on immigration, always concerned about the illegal immigrant, not the American citizen. He said his views had “evolved” and that he didn’t want to “see anybody in pain.” Evidently, that sense of empathy didn’t extend to the pain of his constituents.
John Kasich failed the most basic test as governor of Ohio by placing the interests of foreign nationals ahead of residents of his state. Now he wants a promotion to Vice President under Donald Trump?

Considering what happened to U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans in Benghazi, Libya, in 2012, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton should probably apologize for her recent outrageous comment about the U.S. decision to destabilize the country in 2011.
Clinton, who was Secretary of State when the U.S. conducted military operations to oust Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi in 2011, told a town hall audience the operation was a success because it didn’t lead to the loss of American life . . .
“We’ve got to continue to support the Libyan people, to give them a chance, because otherwise you see what happened in Syria, with the consequences of millions of people flooding out of Syria, with more than 250,000 people killed, with terrorist groups like [the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria] taking up almost — huge blocks of territory, as big as some of the states in that area,” Clinton added . . .
The former Secretary of State didn’t mention the names of the four Americans who died in Benghazi at a diplomatic compound her department failed to protect, instead opting to say of the efforts in Libya: “We didn’t lose a single person.” (Read more from “Clinton’s Alternate Reality: America ‘Didn’t Lose a Single Person’ in Libya” HERE)

A Fox News reporter took to Twitter to claim she has received “up to 15” complaints that Donald Trump was left off the ballot in Florida.
Jennifer Eckhart also tweeted that the local Fox affiliate has received “dozens of complaints” regarding in the issue.
Eckhart said the irregularities are happening in “Jupiter County,” which is not a real place. Presumably she was referring to the town of Jupiter, located in Palm Beach County.
