Wisconsin billionaire Diane Hendricks listed as ‘everyday American’ RNC speaker

Billionaire Diane Hendricks, one of the richest people in Wisconsin, will apparently be speaking as an “everyday American” when she takes the stage Thursday at the Republican National Convention.

Hendricks is the co-founder of ABC Supply, the largest wholesale distributor of roofing supplies and a major distributor of siding and windows in North America. She started the Beloit-based company in 1982 with her husband, Ken, and has been the chairwoman and sole owner since his death in 2007.

By calling herself a self-made woman, Hendricks is discrediting her deceased husband! They made ABC Supply, together! She practically owns the City of Beloit. Housing is unaffordable due to the rapid pace of economic development.* When I lived in Beloit, in the late nineties, my rent was only $800 for a two-story, three-bedroom, two-bath home that I shared with two others and that was before I worked for General Motors. The minimum wage is still $7.25 in Wisconsin.

Kylie Minogue: I Was Gonna Cancel

I Was Gonna Cancel:

Musically, the song is influenced by disco and funk, which noted similarities from William’s previous work and Daft Punk. Lyrically, the song was based on Kylie’s conception of having a bad day. “I Was Gonna Cancel” received positive reviews from music critics, many recognizing it as the more “interesting” song on the record and praised William’s production.

[2017] The Trump-Media Circus and Continuity of Agenda

The Trump-Media Circus and Continuity of Agenda

How the US Presidency Really Works


Imagine the United States is a corporation. It thus has a board of directors (Wall Street). It has a CEO (the US President). The candidates for CEO and the CEO are all chosen by the board of directors merely under the guise of “democratic elections.” The CEO then implements the desires of the unelected board of directors, serving also as a spokesperson for the board and a representative of the board’s overarching agenda.

This explains how, over the past 16 years from US President George Bush Jr. to now President-elect Donald Trump, singular agendas, including unending war in Iraq and Afghanistan, still rage and expanding confrontations with Russia, China, and Iran continue unabated regardless of who is president, and regardless of the alleged principles, political ideals, and campaign promises they respectively represented.

Rhetorically and ideologically, Presidents Bush Jr. and Obama could not have been any more diametrically opposed, yet the continuity of agenda from one 8-year administration to the other was almost seamless. Upon closer examination of the actual corporate-financier interests underpinning both presidencies’ policies, we find the same profiteering special interests and their agendas at play; from big-defense and big-auto to big-oil and mega-finance. From big-pharma to big-ag, and all of these industries sponsoring the same circle of “policy experts” within the halls of corporate-financier funded “think tanks.” 

The presidency of Donald Trump will be no different. There is nothing about either Trump or those he has surrounded himself with that makes him any more “independent” from the defacto “board of directors” that runs corporate America than the administrations of Bush or Obama.
