Election 2018’s proxy fight is set up: Ron Paul versus Larouche
Little Falls, New Jersey Courtney Jones and Chris Sare…
Between the United States Post Office and the police station on Montclair Avenue in Little Falls, stood a sign that read “DEFEND TRUMP, STOP HERE†as two activists set up a stand displaying signs, and pamphlets alongside the town’s sidewalk encouraging pedestrians and drivers to pull over for further information on Thursday afternoon.
The Township of Little Falls has a Democratic mayor and a majority-Democrat council. Little Falls Democratic Organization Chairman Kevin Barry stated, “The Little Falls council went from a 100 percent Republican from a few years ago to a 100 percent Democratic with a Democratic mayor,” however, a small crowd gathered around the LaRouche PAC’s table Thursday to browse the group’s literature and discuss their views. “We’re going everywhere,†Sare added. “We often do post offices because they’re very public.”
I wonder, though… have they encountered this notorious anti-Trump group on their “Post Office Box” Tour?
Do you know what a Trump nomination, nay a Trump presidency, means? A massive global breakdown crisis. Nuclear war. Mass starvation. You will wish you listened.
President Trump will tear up the constitution, replacing it with the dirty playbook he learned from Roy Cohn. His ridiculous economic polities, which would put Paul Adolf Volker to shame, will lead to Weimar-style hyperinflation. You’ll be walking down the street with a wheelbarrow of greenbacks just to buy milk!
This weird anti-Trump organization even has competing signs to post on their competing table tops. (Trump with a Hitler mustache!)
Comically, “Fight Fascism” argued on the irrelevancy of the discrepancy over old Federalist denigrating comments about FDR as opposed to the talisman worship of FDR which reached its fever pitch in the Bush era. I suppose, if he’s still with Team Larouche, he’d be consistent in his inconsistency.
Donald Trump is literally Hitler. […] Have you ever heard of seen a video of Donald Trump that made you actually think? No!
ITEM NUMBER TWO:
In what may come as a surprise, or perhaps a wave of fear, to so-called political experts, Roger Stone—a long-time advisor to many Republican candidates and a friend of Donald Trump—endorsed Kesha Rogers on October 8. She is on the November 6 ballot as an Independent candidate for the 9th Congressional District in Texas against incumbent Democrat Al Green, a fanatic for the impeachment of the President.
All good and well, and we’ll wait for bated breath to see if he mentions it at, say — a South Florida Republican luncheon fundraising event. Look — we have the “fake media” of the Washington Post listing Al Green in a story about uncontested races — and then there’s that situation in South Dakota where the Trump endorsed candidate is facing multiple attacks, one hitting him at his natural Trump loving constituency.
What will it take to have Roger Stone endorse Ron Wieczorek?
ITEM NUMBER THREE:
The org is touting the candidacy of Michigan US Senate candidate John James, apparently glomming onto his run against “partisanship” — a pretty standard political positioning — as aligning with their grand goal of defeating “geopolitics”.
Quick take-away at the end:
LaRouche PAC organizers present at the meeting found a wide-open response to their explanation of the global strategic stakes in the U.S. midterm elections.
As with the Martin O’Malley campaign, any goodwill to the candidate is not reciprocated in kind.
Unlike, it appears, Jeff Jones — who… I guess signed the Larouche pledge of pledges? Don’t see that he’s running on “larouche!”, but the org did — more forthrightly than with the Senate candidate — give him their endorsement. And we see The campaign continues…
Competing literature from his communist opponent. (I assume the self described “socialist”, but certainly not of the “democratic socialist” variety, is who he’s referencing… and I suppose the Democratic legacy candidate is the supposed “socialist”.)
“But I met [Republican candidate] Jeff Jones while I was volunteering, and I felt I got to know him pretty well, and I thought, ‘This guy is a total idiot.’ So when I met you guys on campaign, I thought I had to come and hear from a third party candidate.â€
ITEM NUMBER FOUR
Actually, here’s something interesting to watch in November. Everyone remember Ron Paul? Multiple presidential candidate and prolific pamphleteer his own self. Well, in this 2018 mid-term, he has his own three candidates that he’s endorsed.
(1) Ryan Bundy for Nevada Governor.
(2) Chris McDaniel for Mississippi Senate
(3) Murray Sabrin for New Jersey Senate
A game we can play in November is to see how these three candidates do as against the three candidates slotted by the Larouche org (two members of the org and one signee), to see who has more juice — Ron Paul of the “Ron Paul Revolution” or Larouche of the “Larouche Slough-Fest”.
ITEM NUMBER FIVE
Actually… Sidney Hill of Alaska was running for Alaska’s at large bid. Was. Write-in bid. Suspended his campaign, apparently.
Who’s Sidney Hill? Don’t you remember?
ITEM NUMBER SIX
Steve Bannon. Not David Duke or Lyndon Larouche. Noted.
ITEM NUMBER SEVEN
A blast from the past… circa 1986…
Richard Black, area coordinator for ultra-conservative former Presidential candidate Lyndon LaRouche, joined the panelists. He said the United States should invest $40 billion in laser beam technology.
Note that “Richard Nixon is a Chinese agent”, which in a previous era of the org I think would’ve been a bad thing.
There are two state legislators I’m stuck paying some attention to if I’m paying attention to the larouche org. One is Richard Black of Virginia, whose relationship with the org is as a propped up Authority to be funneled through larouche media to Russian and foreign propaganda/news outlets to sell Putin‘s and other authoritarian government’s line…
(And to get identified incorrectly as a “US Senator”).
Curious. It’s a different Richard Black than we see round about here (even if it’s the same Mike Billington) … correct?
The other figure of note, Kentucky state Senator Perry Clark. (See the freepers discourse on him over here.) Who is probably useless for the org now that he’s not seeking Obama’s impeachment. And for that matter when last I checked in, he was seeking some marijuana decriminalization measure. Still, it’d be interesting to see if Kesha Rogers can gnab his endorsement… which would be worth something, I… guess? Richard Black’s is apparently worthwhile, even though it did nothing for Kelli Ward.
ITEM NUMBER EIGHT
Harley Schlanger tries to work his brand. (The SGT Report… now on a different platform.) Funny, as I bump about this… and a trashing of the Clinton camp as Coup leaders against the President. Clinton, of course, in a previous era… a talisman of goodness.
ITEM NUMBER NINE:Â A degree here, and a degree there, of separation, multiples, as the Larouche org and Rudy Giuliani begin hanging out with the same crowd.
Rudy Giuliani, the personal lawyer to President Donald Trump, is scheduled to speak at a conference in Armenia alongside one of the first Russian officials the U.S. sanctioned following Russia’s 2014 invasion of Ukraine. […]
Glazyev, identified by the conference as an “adviser to the president of the Russian Federation,†has a distinct history with American far-right activists. As ThinkProgress reported earlier this year, Glazyev was once close with noted American anti-Semite Lyndon LaRouche, even going so far as to use LaRouche to translate one of Glazyev’s books into English. Glazyev was also one of the most vocal Russian officials opposing Ukrainian membership in the European Union, and reportedly helped organize protests across Ukraine in the aftermath of the 2013-14 EuroMaidan revolution.
