It would appear the greatest media concern is President-Elect Trump’s ability to communicate directly to the U.S. Electorate without needing the filter of corporate media. This potential new media irrelevance seems to lie at the heart of the MSM current angst.

Interestingly, Donald Trump is meeting with several executives and media personalities today in Trump Tower for an off-the-record discussion:

(Via CNN) […] The meeting will involve Trump, Conway and representatives from ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, and Fox News. (NBC’s cable news channel MSNBC is included in the NBC invitation, Conway noted.)

Some of the top network anchors are traveling or on vacation this week, but others will be in attendance, the Trump aide said. Several executives from the networks will also be there.

Inside the Webster’s dictionary next to the word “insufferable” you’ll find a picture of CNN moonbat Chris Cuomo.  Earlier today Cuomo interviewed Donald Trump’s former campaign manager Kellyanne Conway:

Despite voter enthusiasm the Trump team should proceed with an abundance of caution.
For over a week the executives and producers within CNN have been running various story lines associated with presidential assassination attempts.  
All of those broadcasts have been accompanied with images of Donald Trump campaigning. 
Example above. Donald Trump discussion with Regan assassination footage. 
The subliminal messaging when added to the preferred MSM narrative of a “dangerous” or “divisive” presidency equal an alarming dog whistle toward traditionally violent leftist minds.

Former Campaign Chairperson Kellyanne Conway interviewed today by Howie Kurtz to discuss media coverage of the campaign and transition:

While a little challenging to understand, essentially the french conservatives (Republican party) are holding their first round primary today.  However, everyone in France gets to vote in the primary, and the two with the highest vote percentage then go head-to-head in a run off in round two (next week).

“Brexit – Trexit – Frexit”

The winner of next week’s head-to-head will then enter the general election race and face Marine Le Pen of the French National party, along with other left-wing party candidates next April. Assuming no-one gets over 50% in the April 2017 general election, the top two then going head to head in the General election run-off in May.
The three leading conservative republican candidates going into today were former French President Nicolas Sarkozy,  and former french prime ministers Francois Fillon and Alain Juppe’.  Most non-Republican (liberal) voters hoping Mr Alain Juppe’ would win because he has the best chance of beating Marine Le Pen.
With 72% of the vote counted Francois Fillon appears to be winning. (more…)

According to The Sunday Times Queen Elizabeth is planning to invite President Donald Trump for an official state visit during the summer of 2017.  Great Britain has long been the strongest ally to the U.S. provoking causing consternation from the left-wing elements amid both nations.
President Obama strained the relationship by criticizing the United Kingdom’s colonial heritage, removing a Winston Churchill bust from the oval office, and giving the Queen the gift of an iPod containing all of his own speeches.


(Via Sunday Times) Donald Trump is to be invited to meet the Queen as the government deploys its “secret weapon” to cement close ties with the new American president.
Plans to roll out the red carpet for Trump with a state visit in the summer of 2017 are being drawn up at the highest levels in Whitehall.  A formal invitation for Trump to make the UK one of his first foreign stops will be issued once he is sworn in as president on January 20. (more…)

Vice-President Elect Mike Pence appeared on Fox News Sunday for an interview with Rupert Murdoch’s little prince, Chris Wallace.  Most of the conversation centers around the transition team and the potential Cabinet picks:

...But some, I’m sure, are good people…
MEXICO – A group of armed men have kidnapped 10 people in the violent southwestern Mexican state of Guerrero, where 43 students were abducted and likely massacred two years ago, authorities said on Saturday.
Suspected members of a gang known as Los Tequileros took the 10, which included two minors, from the municipality of San Jeronimo on Thursday evening, said Roberto Alvarez, a spokesman for a government task force overseeing security in Guerrero.
Alvarez said the gang was created by former cohorts of drug cartels the Knights Templar and La Familia, and had been carrying out kidnappings in the state for ransom for several months.

We discussed this at length prior to the general election.  Now there’s statistics available to evidence what we felt was predictable.  In the voting precincts in/around Miami-Dade Florida, containing the highest demographics of Cuban-Americans, Donald Trump won more than 58%.  The Patrone’ Effect.


(Via Capital Hill Cubans) A look at the election results in the 30+ precincts in Miami-Dade County with the highest concentration of Cuban-American voters show that President-elect Donald Trump won with over 58% and Senator Marco Rubio won with over 69%.
These aren’t exit polls or issue polls. These are actual votes counted.
Moreover, these numbers simply represent a base — a starting point — for they are somewhat diluted by non-Cuban voters.  (read more)
