Governor Mike Pence is holding a town hall in Carson City, NV at the Carson Nugget. Vice Presidential nominee Mike Pence’s event is scheduled for 3:00pm PT / 6:00pm EDT
Both Donald Trump (thunder) and Governor Mike Pence (lightning) hit the high energy campaign trail again today with events in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Nevada.
Part of their smart campaign strategy is to outwork the weaker, sickly and less energetic Clinton campaign. Eventually the media will have to report on the noted disparity.
Trump appearing in Columbus Ohio (3pm), and Harrisburg Pennsylvania (7pm). Pence is campaigning in Carson City Nevada (6pm EDT), and Reno Nevada (10pm EDT). Beginning today Right Side Broadcasting will also live stream Mike Pence rallies.
Donald Trump begins with a town hall event in Columbus, OH at the Columbus Convention Center. Live coverage begins at 3:00pm EDT:

In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “2016 Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the Presidential Race and/or any of the candidates therein.

This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †
The people trying to say ‘what’s there isn’t actually there’, are starting to look more than a little silly. It’s beyond obvious something was removed (cut out) from Hillary Clinton’s tongue. It’s clear in the before and after pictures.
What was it?

Some people are speculating it might be a lesion as symptomatic of a form of Oropharyngeal cancer. Two Types: HPV Positive and HPV Negative
There does appear to be a similar precedent, and also for it being hidden by a well known actor, Michael Douglas. –SEE HERE–
There’s several ways you can look at the carefully scripted use of Khizr Muazzam Kahn by the media today in an all out effort to aid Hillary Clinton in her campaign efforts. However, perhaps the most analogous approach is to consider the similarity to Ahmed Mohamed, aka: “Clock Boy”.
Unfortunately for the U.S. media, the transparency of narrative use becomes more obvious the more they coordinate the pile-on. Putting the narrative front and center of every single talking point for the Sunday shows was just a little too transparent:

However, beyond the insufferable talking points, it’s worth noting there is a positive aspect behind the media need to drum up such ridiculous controversies; Hillary Clinton is a horribly weak, ineffective, and inauthentic candidate. If she was not, the media wouldn’t need such coordinated distraction efforts.
But first, to Mr. Kahn. (more…)
The bus-tour “optics” concluded today as Hillary Clinton spoke at the AME church, Imani Temple, in Cleveland Ohio. Several dozen predominately African-American (AME church network) supporters were in attendance to hear her speak:

(link) It is interesting to note the reliance on the identity politics outlined in the Clinton-Kaine venue selection for today.
However, the more concerning aspect for the Clinton campaign will be the lackluster attendance within a constituency they are absolutely dependent upon.
Is the bloom off the ruse?. (more…)
WikiLeaks President Julian Assange appeared on NBC’s Meet The Press to answer questions about the latest email leaks from inside the DNC showing the Democrat Party was conspiring against candidate Bernie Sanders.
Obviously everyone is noticing the “narrative trend” today in the media… LOL
On the positive side, the MSM transparent attempts to deflect attention, use the Media Matters talking points, and prop up Hillary Clinton are going more than a smidge too far.
Oh well:
After months of changes within the corporate executives who makeup of Fox News, the Clinton campaign now removes the prior boycott of the Rupert Murdoch outlet.
