The entire Clinton Clan have a long history of manufacturing optics. Either by paying supporters to seem unaffiliated, genuine or grassroots – or by seeding protests against their political opponents to give the appearance of genuine controversy/protest. The latest example of a Veteran Protest at Trump Tower is the latter.
The Washington Post wrote a story last week questioning Donald Trump’s fundraiser for veterans. The Clinton campaign organized a phone call with campaign activists to stimulate ideas to stir up the controversy.

The Daily Beast caught wind of the manufactured protest effort:

[…] The Clinton campaign swiftly organized a conference call for Saturday, led by the Clinton campaign’s veterans and military families outreach director, Jonathan Murray. According to one of the people on that call, participants were told that the Clinton campaign should not be seen viewed as behind the organizer of the protest.

At Monday’s protest, Marine veteran and Clinton supporter Alexander McCoy served as a spokesman for the demonstrators—and went to great lengths to hide the Clinton campaign’s involvement with organizing the demonstration.

Candidate Donald Trump is back on the campaign trail today with a rally scheduled in Albuquerque New Mexico at 7:00pm Local / 9:00pm Eastern.
The rally is scheduled at the Albuquerque Convention Center. There are three live stream links available (Alternate link #1 will probably active first):
Live Stream Link – Alternate Live Stream #1 – Alternate Live Stream #2

Facing diminishing polls, and the solidifying narrative emanating from them, which hold a very real potential to permanently damage her in the presidential election, Team Clinton have requested immediate aid from one of their primary corporate media sponsors.
In response Michael Cohen goes on CNN this morning to defend Donald Trump.
Two parts of the 15 minute interview. Part I:

Apparently the U.S. media has chosen this week to once again reassert itself as the epitome of broadcast propaganda; Pravda must have been giving them a run for the ruses.
One of the examples today comes from the nascent Jake Tapper of CNN who rallied the proverbial troops around a claim that Donald Trump “brought up Vince Foster” while campaigning for President.

After a two minute diatribe on his framework Tapper begins the panel discussion by saying: “how do you respond to Donald Trump bringing up Vince Foster?”
Except there’s a problem; you know, the pesky truth,… Donald Trump didn’t bring up Vince Foster, a reporter did.
As outlined in the Washington Post: (more…)

Washington State Election Deadline is Today

Washington State holds 44 Delegates.  The polling closes at 8:00pm tonight.  All voting is done by mail in ballot.
All 44 of Washington’s delegates to the Republican National Convention are allocated to presidential contenders based on the results of the voting in today’s Presidential Primary.
Delegates are awarded by State total vote (14) and by congressional district (30):

• Each of the state’s 10 congressional districts is allocated 3 delegates.
  • If a candidate receives a majority of the vote or only 1 candidate receives 20% of the vote, that candidate receives all 3 delegates.
  • If there are 2 candidates who receive at least 20% of the primary vote, then the top vote getter will be allocated 2 delegates and the other candidate will be allocated 1 delegate.
  • If no candidate receives at least 20% of the vote or more than 2 candidates receive at least 20% of the vote, then the top three vote getters each receive 1 delegate.

CNN broadcast a one hour special yesterday called “Why they hate us” discussing why adherents to the most authentic interpretations of Islam hate the United States.
Overall, the broadcasted presentation by Fareed Zakaria was good; actually, very good.  Perhaps one of the best one hour presentations in quite a while.  The content was engaging, the historical references were well presented and well outlined…. until a fatal flaw. The common, disconcerting and uncomfortable fatal flaw.

In what can only be viewed as an effort to downplay the scope of the threat, Fareed Zakaria claims the existence of only 100,000 jihad-minded Islamic followers world-wide.  Fifteen minutes later he presents the 2014 terror victim outcome of 30,000 dead in a single year from Muslim Terrorist Attacks; most victims also Muslim – as if that matters.
Zakaria would have the viewing audience believe that 100k world-wide adherent followers, could inflict 30,00 fatalities.  Common sense, not prone to co-dependency, would refute such an obtuse argument. (more…)

An Associated Press article notes advice to Hillary Clinton to drop the use of gender in her campaign:

Clinton has stopped explicitly mentioning her role in history and joking about being the “youngest woman president.” That’s by design: Those kinds of direct appeals weren’t working with voters.
“De-emphasize the ‘first’ talk,” advised a research report done by Emily’s List. “They already know she’d be the first woman president,” the report said of donors, “but we don’t get anything by reminding them.” (link)

My goodness, this young woman is such an intensely well-centered overachiever that  most ordinary overachievers are looking up when she passes.
TMZ Reports – Presidential Candidate Donald Trump’s daughter, Ivanka, was at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster in Jersey today.  Preparation for the 2017 Women’s Open with Cristie Kerr, Paula Creamer and Brittany Lincicome when they decided to show off their swings.
Check out Ivanka, who was so impressive, you can even hear the pros giving her props:

Having noted a Politico article with Speaker Paul Ryan mentioned in a litany of media articles today, all spinning the same narrative, we decided to dig directly to the sourcing and find out what CBS (here), The Hill (here), and Politico (here), were actually selling.

“Ryan: Trump could win, but I’m not ‘betting’ on it” (politico)

“Paul Ryan on Donald Trump victory: “I’m not a betting man“” (CBS)

It took a little scouring, but the audio of a 30 minute interview between Glenn Thrush and Paul Ryan was located. (embedded below)
Having listened to the interview the articles outlined above are intensely dishonest about the construct of the interview and the subject of Ryan’s commentary surrounding candidate Donald Trump.  The media is so dishonest – brutally so. (more…)

Candidate Donald Trump released a new social media video on Monday (via instagram) using audio of Kathleen Willey and Juanita Broaddrick who have accused President Clinton of sexual assault.

Candidate Hillary Clinton has been called an “enabler” by both Kathleen Willey and Juanita Broaddrick who have also asserted Hillary began a smear campaign against them to protect the political future of her husband.
