Donald Trump’s broke campaign cancels TV ads in several more key states [ Trump is stealing the money you give him. ] Bill Palmer \| 4:00 pm EDT September 14, 2020 Palmer Report » Analysis Last week a bombshell landed which would have dominated the headlines if not for so much else going on. The reelection campaign for the sitting President of the United States has gone broke, to the point that it can’t afford to run TV ads in the swing state of Arizona, and the key people involved with the campaign have been reduced to blaming each other in the media for the evaporating money. Now it’s gotten even uglier. Bloomberg is reporting that the Trump 2020 campaign has cut its TV advertising budgets in Pennsylvania and Michigan to zero. Tracking site Medium Buying is reporting that the Trump campaign is also canceling its planned TV ads this upcoming week in states including Ohio, Iowa, and Nevada. It’s one thing to not schedule TV ads to begin with, which would suggest a shrinking budget. It’s another to cancel them the day before they’re supposed to begin running, which suggests that the Trump campaign realized it doesn’t even have enough cash on hand to pay for this week’s TV ads. Moreover, with Pennsylvania and Wisconsin looking uglier for him, Donald Trump has spent the past several days trying to make up for it by making a long shot play in Nevada – and now he’s even canceling his TV ads in Nevada. It’s not that Trump is shifting his resources. It’s that he’s out of resources. When you’re forced to cancel your ads in the state you just decided is your key to victory, it points to your campaign having close to zero dollars in the bank. The next thing to watch for is whether the Trump campaign begins laying off staffers and/or grumblings begin to surface about staffers not getting their paychecks. If the campaign is this broke, they’re probably struggling to make payroll as well.

Video catches Los Angeles sheriffs in lie about events outside hospital where ambushed cops were recovering The LA County Sheriff’s Department has been caught in a series of lies about their arrest of KPCC Josie Huang, who was reporting outside of St. Francis Medical Center in Lynwood where the two police officers shot in an ambush were taken. Two LA County deputies were shot and are in critical condition after their patrol car was fired on by an individual captured on video. While sitting outside of a metro station in Compton, an individual can be seen in the video approaching the car and firing shots. One deputy got out of the vehicle to pursue the suspect, then the video ends. “Both deputies sustained multiple gunshot wounds and underwent surgery at a local hospital,” said an ABC7 report. “They were described as alive but in critical condition.” The heartbreaking story took a turn, however, when the officers were recovering at a nearby hospital. The LA County Sheriff’s department tweeted that there was a huge crowd of protesters blocking the hospital entrance and chanting, “we hope they die.” LA County Sheriffs @LASDHQ Sep 12, 2020 . @LACoSheriff Villanueva to Discuss Ambush Shooting of 2 LA Sheriff's in Compton, 10PM at St. Francis Med Ctr in Lynwood. LA County Sheriffs @LASDHQ To the protesters blocking the entrance & exit of the HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOM yelling "We hope they die" referring to 2 LA Sheriff's ambushed today in #Compton: DO NOT BLOCK EMERGENCY ENTRIES & EXITS TO THE HOSPITAL. People's lives are at stake when ambulances can't get through. Despite multiple cell phone videos capturing the protests, none seem to be able to show the so-called “chant.” In fact, videos showed just a few individuals, not a huge crowd of people and nothing was being blocked. One person said the phrase “we hope they die,” one time. There wasn’t a huge crowd of protesters. No ambulances were blocked. There were no chants. Police then claimed that when they were arresting one protester, a woman rushed up to the scene with a cell phone camera in hand. She never identified herself, they claimed, but later they found out she was a press-member. That turned out to be a lie as well. After the reporter was released from jail, she uploaded the video in which she repeatedly identifies herself that as a member of the press. Another video captured the moment where Huang’s press credentials can be seen hanging around her neck, showing that she was media. Josie Huang @josie_huang I was at St. Francis Medical Center in Lynwood last night covering a press conference led by Sheriff Villanueva about the shooting of two deputies. One of the deputies is a mom of a 6 year-old. I felt my chest tighten thinking about the little boy. Josie Huang @josie_huang Villanueva says the 2 deputies suffered multiple gunshot wounds and are out of surgery. One is a 31 yo mother of a 6 yo boy. Her husband is at the hospital. The other deputy is 24 years old. His parents and gf are with him. Villanueva says both were sworn in 14 mos ago. Show this thread Josie Huang @josie_huang After the press conference, I went to my car in the hospital garage and was tying things up on the phone with 1 of my editors. It was almost 11 pm. Then I heard loud shouting outside the garage, so I went to check things out. I had on a lanyard around my neck with a press ID. Josie Huang @josie_huang A handful of men were on the sidewalk. A couple were carrying large flags. Others were filming deputies and taunting them. One deputy pointed a weapon at the protesters. I started filming on my phone, standing off to the side. No one took issue with me being there. Josie Huang @josie_huang I texted video to editors. When I looked up from my phone, the small group of men had dispersed & deputies were following at least 1 man down the street. I walked behind, using the zoom on my camera so I could keep physical distance. A couple deputies looked at me as I filmed. Josie Huang @josie_huang Here’s more of the video, the zoom is still on. I saw a commotion ahead of me. Deputies rushed one man and chased another. I was filming an arrest when suddenly deputies shout “back up.” Within seconds, I was getting shoved around. There was nowhere to back up. Josie Huang @josie_huang Somehow I was able to start a new video right away. You see my phone clatter to the ground and I start shouting “I’m a reporter...I’m with KPCC.” I scream for help from the TV reporters I know are around the corner doing their 11 p.m. live hits Josie Huang @josie_huang After my phone drops, it keeps recording and it captures two deputies damaging my phone by kicking and stepping on it. I can hear myself in the background shouting: “You guys are hurting me” and “Stop it.” It feels very out-of-body to play this back. Josie Huang @josie_huang I was put in the back of a patrol car -- the start of some 5 hours in LASD custody that began with the deputy refusing to uncuff me so I could put my face covering back on, telling me I just had a “scrape” when I was bleeding from my foot and not giving me back a shoe At a time when everyone could rally around the idea that no person should be gunned down in cold blood, whether police or civilian, the sheriff’s department spread misinformation, making the issue even worse. rawstory.com

Should Donald Trump and his enablers seek to incite violent insurrection, they should be treated as enemies of the state and dealt with as such. Violent sedition is lawless, childish behavior. It's even more insidious in that it's being wrapped in fake veneers of liberty and virtue.
