Rasmussen weekly survey of independent (unaffiliated) voters shows again that Donald Trump is holding a 20 point lead among all independents:
It has just been reported that Jacksonville Florida Congressional Representative Corrine Brown has been indicted by a federal grand jury and is expected to turn herself in to federal law enforcement tomorrow at the Jacksonville Courthouse.
Representative Brown has been controversial as an advocate for various grievance causes; and is recently well known for her advocacy surrounding the Trayvon Martin shooting.
The federal indictment is still under seal until tomorrow when it is expected Brown will turn herself in, therefore the details of the charges against her are not specifically known.
However, Representative Brown is widely accepted to be “Person A” who is outlined in a wire-fraud case surrounding a group called “One Door for Education”, which advertised itself as a charity, but was never a registered nonprofit.
One Door’s president Carla Wiley entered a guilty plea of Conspiracy to Commit Wire Fraud charges in early March 2016. Wiley and Brown were both active in the One Door education “enterprise” which was determined to be entirely based on fraud. (more…)

Against the earlier shooting in Baton Rouge Louisiana, unfortunately this police shooting will lead the news cycles – guaranteed.
This latest shooting happened only a few hours ago. Police said the incident began with a traffic stop around 9 p.m (link).
Sketchy Details / No media yet – As best we can determine, a woman named Lavish Reynolds (aka Diamond Reynolds) immediately began live-streaming video of the aftermath from a police officer shooting her boyfriend four times. A four year old girl was in the back seat. (more…)
It’s a little odd to see a “not guilty” plea, considering Michael Sandford previously admitted to the plot to assassinate presidential candidate Donald Trump.
LAS VEGAS (AP) – A British citizen pleaded not guilty Wednesday to U.S. federal charges alleging he tried to grab a police officer’s gun to shoot presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump at a Las Vegas campaign rally.
A judge set an Aug. 22 trial date for Michael Steven Sandford, 20, on charges of disrupting an official function and two firearm possession counts.
Sandford stood wearing a yellow jail jump suit with his federal public defense attorneys during his brief arraignment. (more…)
