Sean Colarossi | 2016-10-27T02:47:11.477+03:00 | former gop congressman goes full trump encourages armed revolt if clinton wins | trump warned his supporters that the us postal service is trying to steal the election for hillary clinton in colorado
video
at a rally in golden co trump said
i have real problems with ballots being sent does that make sense
like people saying oh heres a ballot heres another ballot throw it away oh heres one i like well keep that one
i have real problems so get your ballots in
trump also accused election officials of throwing away ballots as his rally was a mixture of claims of voter fraud and baseless speculation about hillary clintons emails
donald trump appears to be losing his mind he also seems to think that accusing the us postal service and election officials of stealing the election for hillary clinton is going to motivate republicans to vote
consider the contradiction in trumps message the republican nominee tells his supporters that the us postal service is throwing away ballots while at the same time he is urging them to mail in their ballots
if their ballots are going to be thrown away by usps why should republicans bother mailing their ballots in
it is this sort of incoherent gibberish that makes no sense trumps inability to stay disciplined and on message is also one of the biggest reasons why republicans on pace to lose this election

Sean Colarossi | 2016-10-27T03:48:56.617+03:00 | conservatives already plotting to block clintons scotus picks let court die out | by rmuse on sat oct th at pm he is taking the conspiracy theories and obstruction that dogged his presidency from day one and throwing them back in republicans faces the following is an opinion column by r muse
although this campaign season has been interesting to say the least there is something happening one never thought would occur after spending nearly eight years demonizing obstructing and criticizing every and anything about the president of the united states republicans desperate to save their jobs are beginning to tout their imagined close ties to the democratic president whose approval rating and popularity are growing
it is hypocritical to say the least and at some point a result of a toxic republican candidate for the presidency but for some gop candidates it is a very dangerous strategy if any republican believed president obama would allow them to take advantage of him after spending eight years assailing him as illegitimate and corrupt they were sadly mistaken and underestimated the commander in chiefs tolerance during an election
the president is using the final two weeks before the election to decimate republicans for either belated rejection or continued support of donald trump president obama is also reminding republicans that donald trump is the endpoint of eight years of gop toxic hostility it may be a tad of an exaggeration to claim that obama seems determined to spend the last two weeks of the election laying waste to every republican who ever crossed him but he is getting some wellplaced and wellwarranted shots at republicans
two republican hypocrites hoping to take advantage of the presidents approval ratings have been some of his harshest critics so it likely stunned the president that they are boasting working closely with the man they obstructed opposed and attempted to get rid of
ohio senator rob portman had the temerity to run a campaign ad boasting about working closely with the president to break the grip of heroin addiction president obama took the time to excoriate portman for
finally withdrawing his support from donald trump but only after looking at the polling now that its politically expedient but he has supported him up until last week so i guess it was ok when trump was attacking minorities and suggesting that mexicans were rapists and insulting gold star moms making fun of disabled americans i guess that didnt quite tip it over the edge why was that ok and now he says he will vote for the vicepresidential nominee instead except that guy still supports donald trump
the president was a little more exercised after learning that the man who called the president one of the most corrupt presidents in modern times california republican representative daryl issa is sending out campaign mailers with the presidents face on them and boasting about his close work with president obama to protect victims of sexual assault
daryl issa is in a fairly competitive race compared to past elections and he certainly has earned the presidents wrath after obstructing progress and wasting taxpayer money on issacreated scandals during a fundraiser in la jolla california sunday last the president assailed issa for having the audacity to use a campaign mailer with the presidents image on it the president said
issas primary contribution to the united states congress has been to obstruct and to waste taxpayer dollars on trumpedup investigations that have led nowhere this is now a guy who because poll numbers are bad has sent out brochures with my picture on them touting his cooperation on issues with me now that is the definition of chutzpah
as remarked by tim murphy at mother jones president obama is not just evening up the score with republicans who made his tenure miserable he is attempting to have the last word on the personal and political fights of the last eight yearsto take the conspiracy theories and obstruction that dogged his presidency from day one and throw them back in republicans faces
the president clearly has a lot of words to harangue republicans with he said
heres the thing for years republican politicians and the farright media outlets have pumped up all kinds of crazy stuff about me about hillary about harry they said i wasnt born here they said climate change is a hoax they said that i was going to take everybodys guns away they said that while we were doing military exercises that weve been doing forever suddenly this was a plot to impose martial law this is what theyve been saying for years now so people have been hearing it they start thinking well maybe its true and if the world theyve been seeing is im powerful enough to cause hurricanes on my own and to steal everybodys guns in the middle of the night and impose martial laweven though i cant talk without a prompterthen is it any wonder that they end up nominating somebody like donald trump
and the fact is that there are a lot of politicians who knew better there are a lot of senators who knew better but they went along with these stories because they figured you know what thisll help rile up the base itll give us an excuse to obstruct what were trying to do we wont be able to appoint judges well gum up the works well create gridlock itll give us a political advantage so they just stood by and said nothing and their base began to actually believe this stuff so donald trump did not start this donald trump didnt start it he just did what he always did which is slap his name on it take credit for it and promote it thats what he always does and so now when suddenly its not working and people are saying wow this guys kind of out of line all of a sudden these republican politicians who were okay with all this crazy stuff up to a point suddenly theyre all walking away oh this is too much so when you finally get him on tape bragging about actions that qualify as sexual assault and his poll numbers go down suddenly thats a dealbreaker well what took you so long what the heck what took you so long all these years
the mother jones piece made out like president obama is seeking retribution or revenge against republicans for their impropriety as legislators over the past eight years without knowing what goes on in the presidents head to motivate his campaign rhetoric that is a hard call to make with any surety barack obama does not strike one as being vindictive
the president is though an accomplished campaigner and as his tenure in the white house is winding down and republicans are struggling to find an identity apart from donald trump it is prudent of the president to remind voters exactly what republicans are about and what they are about is precisely why donald trump is their standard bearer and why republicans are hypocrites for both abandoning trump and embracing the man they obstructed and tried to remove from the white house | english | politicususa.com | http://15130-presscdn-0-89.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/clinton-eyeroll.jpg | bias | Real | trump kicks africanamerican protester north carolina rally calls thug | rmuse pm party doesnt learn lessons change based whats gone last year half think going catastrophic following opinion column r muse may understatement year say republican party verge fullon civil war may obvious many americans blame interparty discord standard bearer donald j trump however much trumps candidacy contributed tensions establishment types terrified trumps reckless disregard longevity party rebellionminded trump supporters real instigators koch brothers although oil magnates never trump bandwagon responsible trump loyalists within gop part teabagger movement intent disrupting nations political system indeed workings government tea party caucus extremist sect succeeded chasing former house speaker john boehner congress morphed inaptly named freedom caucus embraced trump set set fire party establishment isnt solely put current speaker paul ryan job although high trump supporters todo list noted wednesdays new york times mr trumps supporters said determined harness antiestablishment energy mr trump catalyzed refocus republican leadership congress target many seemeager take rightwing extremist actually took former house majority leader eric cantor conservative extremist house freedom caucus member david brat issued warning establishment republicans theres huge chunk people want see fight taken dc leadership comes smacks guy thats youre going put marker really american people scratching head saying really thats rich brat thorn establishments side since paul ryan became speaker joins dangerous number real conservatives cannot understand comport ryan establishment leaders dared criticize trump instead using majority advantage go hillary clinton donald trump senior aides prodding extremist conservatives revolt establishment leadership election defending trump fact besides assailing ryan sticking trump reported trump said privately ryan made pay heavy price disloyalty trump candidacy interview reuters complained people angry leadership party election win percent support top win lose going major bloodletting election establishment although powerful may face herculean task save party impending conflict within gop brewing longer donald trump candidate may brought experienced antiestablishment devotee run campaign chairman breitbart news stephen bannon made one primary goals get paul ryan house speaker true conservative intent tearing government restructure uberconservative paradise uberconservative different way saying nongovernment according koch brothers vision american libertarianism dont believe two groups closely aligned koch brothers heritage action america freedomworks pushing republicans party adopt extremist positions see civil war stellar opportunity greater influence partys decisions something establishment types resisting past days leaders koch groups joined extremist conservatives calling delay vote selecting candidate next new speaker house something typically occurring directly general election november regardless outcome according chief executive heritage action michael needham going hell pay establishment republicans dont bend extremist wing created kochs heavily courted donald trump mr needham said party doesnt learn lessons change based whats gone last year half think going catastrophe another conservative extremist house freedom caucus member ardent donald trump supporter echoed needhams sentiment said cant ignore millions millions people expressed election cycle dilemma republicans election matter outcome maintaining semblance stability political party doesnt seem likely trump loses big small extremists unleash whatever level hell muster establishment daring criticize trumps outrageous dangerous comments stump trump wins extremists emboldened purge party disloyal establishment types appears matter happens november end hostilities among republicans republican party establishment reckoning extremist wing content threatening full faith credit united states shutting government show anger four years internal bickering means true conservative past yearandahalf incitement donald trump republican party faces serious threat longterm survival threat began six years ago koch brothers ushered age extremist conservatives donald trump took advantage seize control republican party | 1 |
Jason Easley | 2016-10-27T03:48:57.025+03:00 | the media is getting desperate and pushing a bogus trump comeback story | by hrafnkell haraldsson on sat oct th at pm you do know you just attacked a gold star family one adviser warned trump whats that he asked share on twitter print this post
gabriel sherman writes at new york mag that when donald trump attacked the khan family over khizr khans speech at the democratic national convention he had no idea what a gold star family was
you will remember that khizr khan stood up in front of the entire world and said to donald trump let me ask you have you even read the united states consitution i will gladly lend you my copy in this document look for the words liberty and equal protection of the law
the fallout was predictable donald trump openly criticized lost it he attacked the khans religious beliefs saying if you look at his wife she was standing there she had nothing to say she probably maybe she wasnt allowed to have anything to say
now it turns out that he had no idea what he was doing because he is ignorant and because as mark cuban has observed he isnt interested in learning anything gabriel sherman explains
you do know you just attacked a gold star family one adviser warned trump trump didnt know what a gold star family was whats that he asked to trump khizr khan and his wife ghazala were enemies who had said something mean about him just like rosie odonnell and any number of people who had gotten under his skin over the years wasnt it his right to respond ?the election is about the american people its not about you? manafort told trump according to a person briefed on the conversation trump countered with breitbarts report on khans purported belief in sharia ?hes not running for president? manafort shot back ?the clintons did this to us to waste our time getting off message?
of course trump could not and would not admit his own ignorance and he certainly wasnt prepared to take the blame instead as sherman reveals he took it out on manafort in front of his senior advisors including ailes according to trump manafort wasnt able to get the media to focus on the right stuff
no wonder when trump refuses to take manaforts advice and focus on the right stuff this is not to defend manafort who is at least as despicable as his boss but it serves as an example of how trumps first reaction each and every time is to get back at his critic
it was one of donald trumps most visible joe mccarthy moments and his response to khizr khan actually reinforced the point khan was trying to make

Sean Colarossi | 2016-10-27T04:30:13.423+03:00 | trump kicks africanamerican protester out of north carolina rally calls him a thug | by rmuse pm if the party doesnt learn lessons and change based on whats gone on for the last year and a half i think its going to be just catastrophic the following is an opinion column by r muse
it may be the understatement of the year to say the republican party is on the verge of a fullon civil war and it may be obvious to many americans that the blame for the interparty discord is its standard bearer donald j trump however much trumps candidacy has contributed to the tensions between establishment types terrified of trumps reckless disregard for the longevity of the party and rebellionminded trump supporters the real instigators are the koch brothers
although the oil magnates were never on the trump bandwagon they are responsible for the trump loyalists within the gop who were part of the teabagger movement intent on disrupting the nations political system and indeed the workings of government itself the tea party caucus an extremist sect that succeeded in chasing former house speaker john a boehner out of congress morphed into the inaptly named freedom caucus that has embraced trump are set to set fire to the party establishment and it isnt solely to put current speaker paul ryan out of a job although that is high on the trump supporters todo list
as noted in wednesdays new york times mr trumps supporters said they were determined to harness the antiestablishment energy that mr trump had catalyzed and to refocus it on the republican leadership in congress a target many of them seemeager to take down
the rightwing extremist that actually took down former house majority leader eric cantor conservative extremist and house freedom caucus member david brat issued a warning to establishment republicans
theres a huge chunk of people who want to see a fight taken to dc leadership comes and smacks our guy thats where youre going to put down a marker really and the american people are just scratching their head saying really thats rich
brat has been a thorn in the establishments side since paul ryan became speaker and he joins a dangerous number of real conservatives who cannot understand or comport with ryan and establishment leaders who dared criticize trump instead of using their majority advantage to go after hillary clinton
donald trump and a few of his senior aides are prodding extremist conservatives to revolt against the establishment leadership after the election for not defending trump in fact besides assailing ryan for not sticking by trump it is reported that trump said privately that ryan should be made to pay a heavy price for disloyalty to the trump candidacy and during an interview with reuters he complained that the people are very angry with the leadership of this party because this is an election that we will win percent if we had support from the top win or lose there is going to be a major bloodletting after the election and the establishment although powerful may face a herculean task to save the party
this impending conflict within the gop has been brewing longer than donald trump has been a candidate and it may be why he brought on an experienced antiestablishment devotee to run his campaign the chairman of breitbart news stephen bannon had made it one of his primary goals to get paul ryan out as house speaker because he is not a true conservative intent on tearing government down to restructure it into an uberconservative paradise and uberconservative is just a different way of saying a nongovernment according to the koch brothers vision of american libertarianism dont believe it
two groups closely aligned with the koch brothers heritage action for america and freedomworks have been pushing republicans as a party to adopt more extremist positions and see the civil war as a stellar opportunity to have greater influence over the partys decisions something establishment types are resisting
over the past few days leaders of both koch groups joined extremist conservatives in calling to delay a vote on selecting a candidate to be the next or new speaker of the house something typically occurring directly after the general election in november regardless the outcome
according to the chief executive of heritage action michael needham there is going to be hell to pay for establishment republicans if they dont bend to the will of the extremist wing created by the kochs and heavily courted by donald trump mr needham said
if the party doesnt learn lessons and change based on whats gone on for the last year and a half i think its going to be just catastrophe
another conservative extremist house freedom caucus member and ardent donald trump supporter echoed needhams sentiment and said you cant ignore what millions and millions of people have expressed in this election cycle
the dilemma for republicans after the election no matter the outcome is maintaining a semblance of stability as a political party that doesnt seem likely because if trump loses big or small the extremists will unleash whatever level of hell they can muster on the establishment for daring to criticize any of trumps more outrageous and dangerous comments on the stump if trump wins the extremists will be emboldened to purge the party of any disloyal establishment types and it appears that no matter what happens on november it will not be the end of hostilities among republicans
the republican party establishment is in for a reckoning with an extremist wing that was once content threatening the full faith and credit of the united states or shutting down the government as a show of anger after four years of internal bickering over what it means to be a true conservative and the past yearandahalf of incitement by donald trump the republican party faces a serious threat to its longterm survival it is a threat that began about six years ago when the koch brothers ushered in an age of extremist conservatives that donald trump took advantage of to seize control of the republican party | english | politicususa.com | http://15130-presscdn-0-89.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Screen-Shot-2016-10-26-at-9.45.51-PM.png | bias | Real | trump gotten republican party sued trying intimidate voters | reuters pm democrat hillary clintons top aides saturday lashed fbi director james comey igniting new controversy longrunning private email investigation less two weeks presidential election saying evidence wrongdoing accusing spreading innuendo roberta rampton steve holland daytona beach flagolden colo reuters democrat hillary clintons top aides saturday lashed fbi director james comey igniting new controversy longrunning private email investigation less two weeks presidential election saying evidence wrongdoing accusing spreading innuendo comey headed federal bureau investigation since notified us congress friday agency reviewing emails even though july decided seek prosecution clinton handling classified materials private email server secretary state john podesta heads clintons presidential campaign told reporters comeys letter congress light facts heavy innuendo urged comey come forward give answers american public exact nature fbis latest review emails sources close investigation friday said latest emails discovered part separate probe anthony weiner estranged husband top clinton aide huma abedin weiner former us congressman new york target fbi investigation illicit text messages alleged sent yearold girl north carolina nov elections quickly approaching republican presidential candidate donald trump pounded away new fbi development devoting large part campaign speech golden colorado attacking clinton arguing trusted presidency criminal action willful deliberate intentional purposeful trump said standing front hay bales stacked horse barn hillary set illegal server obvious purpose shielding illegal actions public disclosure exposure comey however provided details whether emails review seen first time fbi nature contents clintons campaign tried play new review theres evidence wrongdoing charge wrongdoing podesta said fbis latest announcement taking appropriate investigative steps learning emails appear pertinent earlier probe clinton campaign manager robby mook trying tamp speculation voter backlash late campaign said americans already factored knew email investigation would cast ballots dont see changing landscape undecided voters mook said clinton aides also said latest controversy energized supporters clinton campaigning florida saturday battleground state many analysts say trump must win order chance elected recent weeks trump running behind clinton public opinion polls justice department officials according source asked identified opposed fbi directors letter sent congress believe actions conflict justice department memo outlining instructions agencies act ways could influence elections attorney general loretta lynch discuss matter directly comey source said aides touch comey let known felt send letter followup congressional testimony earlier year regarding fbis probe clintons emails source said meanwhile clinton supporters rallied defense following fridays fbi disclosure congressional black caucus comprised members house representatives nearly democrats held news conference columbus ohio urged comey release details reporting steve holland golden colorado ans roberta rampton daytona beach florida additional reporting mark hosenball washington writing richard cowan editing james dalgleish leslie adlerand leslie adler clinton campaign urges fbi detail new developments email case added reuters sat oct th | 1 |

by roberta rampton
daytona beach fla reuters heading into the homestretch of the presidential campaign democratic candidate hillary clinton is looking to harness some celebrity star power to help get out the vote and energize volunteers in battleground states
jennifer lopez will headline a free concert for clinton supporters in miami on saturday giving the former secretary of state a chance to connect with the key demographic of millennials she has sometimes struggled to reach and some visual counterprogramming to the latest email controversy to roil her race for the white house
the federal bureau of investigation said on friday it is investigating more emails as part of a probe into clintons use of a private email system a latebreaking surprise that will likely continue to get extensive media play leading up to the nov vote
celebritydriven events like the concert can serve as a bit of a distraction from the controversy said eric kasper a political scientist at the university of wisconsineau claire
it is a way to kind of take the edge off things because it tends to be more positive kasper said
the jlo concert is the first in a series next week clinton will take the stage with jay z in cleveland and then with katy perry in philadelphia on nov
a harvard university poll this week showed that among likely voters aged to clinton is leading republican rival donald trump a celebrity in his own right who starred in the reality television show the apprentice
but turnout is a concern the exceptionally negative tone of this years race for the white house has soured young americans on politics reutersipsos polling shows
presidential candidates have long sought to create buzz with help from celebrity pals said tevi troy who chronicled the strategy in his book what jefferson read ike watched and obama tweeted years of pop culture in the white house
campaigns do it to reach out to people who are not necessarily interested in politics but are interested in pop culture said troy a presidential historian who worked in the george w bush white house
the events are like a larger version of a campaign yard sign a way to show a groundswell of support behind a candidate and a way to appeal to fans of the musicians said kasper who has studied the intersection between pop culture and politics
it can create a kind of psychological connection that we otherwise might not have when a politician endorses a presidential candidate for instance kasper said

by roberta rampton and steve holland
daytona beach flagolden colo reuters democrat hillary clintons top aides on saturday lashed out at fbi director james comey for igniting a new controversy over a longrunning private email investigation less than two weeks before the presidential election saying there was no evidence of wrongdoing and accusing him of spreading innuendo
comey who has headed the federal bureau of investigation since notified the us congress on friday that the agency is again reviewing emails even though in july it decided not to seek prosecution of clinton for her handling of classified materials on a private email server while she was secretary of state
john podesta who heads clintons presidential campaign told reporters that comeys letter to congress was light on facts heavy on innuendo and he urged comey to come forward and give those answers to the american public about the exact nature of the fbis latest review of emails
sources close to the investigation on friday said the latest emails were discovered as part of a separate probe into anthony weiner the estranged husband of top clinton aide huma abedin
weiner a former us congressman from new york is the target of an fbi investigation into illicit text messages he is alleged to have sent to a yearold girl in north carolina
with the nov elections quickly approaching republican presidential candidate donald trump pounded away at the new fbi development devoting a large part of a campaign speech in golden colorado to attacking clinton and arguing that she is not to be trusted with the presidency
her criminal action was willful deliberate intentional and purposeful trump said standing in front of hay bales stacked in a horse barn hillary set up an illegal server for the obvious purpose of shielding her illegal actions from public disclosure and exposure
comey however has not provided any details on whether the emails now under review are being seen for the first time by the fbi or the nature of their contents
clintons campaign tried to play down the new review theres no evidence of wrongdoing no charge of wrongdoing podesta said in the fbis latest announcement that it was taking appropriate investigative steps after learning of emails that appear to be pertinent to the earlier probe
clinton campaign manager robby mook trying to tamp down speculation of a voter backlash this late in the campaign said americans had already factored what they knew about the email investigation into how they would cast their ballots
we dont see it changing the landscape for undecided voters mook said
clinton aides also said this latest controversy has further energized her supporters
clinton was campaigning in florida on saturday a battleground state that many analysts say trump must win in order to have any chance of being elected
in recent weeks trump has been running behind clinton in most public opinion polls
justice department officials according to a source who asked not to be identified were opposed to the fbi directors letter being sent to congress and believe his actions conflict with a justice department memo outlining instructions that agencies should not to act in ways that could influence elections
while attorney general loretta lynch did not discuss the matter directly with comey the source said aides were in touch with each other
comey let it be known he felt he had to send the letter as a followup to his congressional testimony earlier this year regarding the fbis probe of clintons emails the source said
meanwhile clinton supporters rallied to her defense following fridays fbi disclosure

Hrafnkell Haraldsson | 2016-10-27T15:01:20.223+03:00 | stung by clinton allegations trump claims he used no undocumented workers in dc hotel | by reuters pm democratic nominee hillary clinton leads republican donald trump by percentage points among early voters surveyed in the past two weeks according to the reutersipsos states of the nation project
by maurice tamman
new york reuters with days to go before the us presidential election democratic nominee hillary clinton leads republican donald trump by percentage points among early voters surveyed in the past two weeks according to the reutersipsos states of the nation project
though data is not available for all early voting states clinton enjoys an edge in swing states such as ohio and arizona and in republican party strongholds such as georgia and texas
an estimated million americans have voted so far in the election according to the university of floridas united states election project accounting for as much as percent of the electorate
overall clinton remained on track to win a majority of votes in the electoral college the reutersipsos survey showed
having so many ballots locked down before the nov election is good news for the clinton campaign on friday the federal bureau of investigation announced that it is examining newly discovered emails belonging to clintons close aide huma abedin those emails were found on a computer belonging to anthony weiner abedins estranged husband during an unrelated investigation into illicit messages he is alleged to have sent to a teenage girl the reutersipsos survey was conducted before the news emerged friday afternoon
it remains unclear whether the fbi inquiry will upset the balance in the race the bureau disclosed nothing about the abedin emails including whether any of the messages were sent by or to clinton over the summer the fbi said it was closing its investigation into clintons use of a private email system while secretary of state until friday her campaign seemed to have weathered the initial fbi email probe
clinton has held a lead averaging four to seven percentage points in polls in recent weeks as the trump campaign wrestled with accusations by women of groping and other sexual advances trump has said none of the accusations are true he also struggled in the recent presidential debates and faced questions about his taxes
as of thursday clintons odds of receiving the electoral college votes needed to win the presidency remained at greater than percent according to state of the nation polling results released saturday the project estimated she would win by votes to with votes solidly for the democrat
clintons lead among early voters is similar to the lead enjoyed by president barack obama over republican mitt romney at this point of the race according to a reutersipsos poll taken at the time obama won the election by electoral votes to romneys
but even before the latest email news it had been a difficult week for clinton news coverage of trumps accusers had diminished while clinton confronted the almost daily release by wikileaks of emails purportedly hacked from her campaign managers account this weeks leaked messages raised questions about former president bill clintons finances
and her lead in the states of the nation project fell slightly from last week though the projected electoral college votes hardly moved the number of states solidly for clinton slid from to this week trump didnt see any additional states tilt solidly to him but he did see some gains the swing states of pennsylvania colorado iowa and nevada all moved from leaning to clinton to being too close to call
still trumps path to a victory is narrow and any realistic chance rests on his winning ohio north carolina and florida as of thursday ohio remained a tossup florida and north carolina were still tilting toward clinton according to the states of the nation results
early voting data for florida and north carolina was not yet available this week in ohio clinton led trump by double digits among early voters the projects broader polling suggests the state is deadlocked between the two candidates
in arizona clinton also was solidly ahead among early voters in the past month arizona has gradually moved from a solid trump state to a marginal clinton state although it is still too close to call according to the project results
in georgia she enjoyed a similar lead among early voters overall georgia leans to trump but his lead narrowed to five percentage points this week down from eights points last week and points a month ago
even in texas where trump enjoys a sizable lead clinton has a doubledigit edge among early voters according to project results
the states of the nation project is a survey of about people every week in all states plus washington dc state by state results are available by visiting httpwwwreuterscomstatesofthenation

not only is donald trump a liar and a thinskinned crybaby but he is selfish never spending his own money when he can spend somebody elses this behavior was never more in evidence than the washington post s david fahrentholds account of a a ribboncutting held by the association to benefit children for a nursery school when donald trump showed up sat down to appear to be a great supporter and then left without leaving a donation
as sopan deb tweeted
sopan deb sopandeb october
frank and kathie lee gifford were big donors and it is no wonder gifford was so shocked by trumps presence what had been exposed is that trumps life is a sham a gigantic show put on by him in which he parades through life pretending to be something he is not
as fahrenthold explains
for as long as he has been rich and famous donald trump has also wanted people to believe he is generous he spent years constructing an image as a philanthropist by appearing at charity events and by making very public even nationally televised promises to give his own money away it was in large part a facade a monthslong investigation by the washington post has not been able to verify many of trumps boasts about his philanthropy
that philanthropist isnt the real trump the only person trump visibly cares about is donald trump he uses his foundation to buy himself nice things spending other peoples money for luxury items and collectibles when he does make donations it is again because he gives no money to his own foundation with other peoples money
fahrenthold says that the only donation of trumps own money the paper could find from the period of to today is a gift to the police athletic league of new york city in
for a man as rich as trump claims to be in eight years is nothing to brag about not that this stops the monumental deadbeat hypocrite that is donald trump from bragging anyway | english | politicususa.com | http://15130-presscdn-0-89.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/african-american-voters-trump.jpg | bias | Real | democrats may get special trump defeat could take paul ryan | meet press clinton campaign manager robbie mook said early voting strong democrats nevada hillary clinton could build insurmountable lead week video chuck todd asked mook believed email story could cost clinton election answered dont think look said volunteers seeing record early voting numbers north carolina florida look would wager nevada turnout strong among democrats hillary could build insurmountable lead coming days nevada feeling really good record turnout million people country registered vote fifty million young people nose grindstone going finish people take anything granted going work hard earn hillary clinton could put nevada reach trump week whether happens voters democrats continue vote overwhelming numbers swing states email story wont matter democrats dont show trumps chance winning early voting numbers hillary clinton running florida north carolina nevada accident clinton democratic party invested heavily extensive get vote operation early voting states democrats already strategic advantage early voting election donal trumps refusal invest substantial get vote operation widened gap two parties area final week election could vital democrats swing states election day hillary clinton piles big margins early voting could leave minimal drama election night democratic early voting plan working perfection mook said left democrats put heads work hard close deal early voting strong democrats clinton could lock nevada week added jason easley sun oct th | 1 |
Jason Easley | 2016-10-27T18:37:48.144+03:00 | trump campaign admits they are trying to steal the election with voter suppression | by hrafnkell haraldsson on sat oct th at pm that fog thats on christians is the collective witchcraft that comes over the body of christ because theres spirits being authorized to be released
coming from people who believe in something called spiritual warfare a nebulous spiritual struggle taking place over and above all the talk about issues and policy positions it is perhaps no surprise that the religious right should declare that their messiah donald trump is being threatened with witchcraft
lance wallnau whose twitter page claims to be your spiritual warfare guide to the election appeared on the jim bakker show to push the crazy idea that many christians feel this fog on their head at times and that fog thats on christians is the collective witchcraft that comes over the body of christ because theres spirits being authorized to be released
watch courtesy of right wing watch
oh sweet baby jesus the mighty lance has struck out what has happened of course is that the religious right not only endorsed but anointed a candidate who embodies the exact opposite of the values they claim to champion its no wonder they feel in a fog metaphorically or physically theyre selling their souls
wallnau claims the left is a smaller number of radicals better organized than the larger body of christ who doesnt work together and thats the dilemma that americas in right now even though the left is a disparate alliance of various groups working together and the religious right has been organizing since goldwater lost in
a hypocrite just cant catch a break it seems
the web literally is coming down on america and whats sad is how many christians feel this fog on their head at times do you feel that its almost like everythings going wrong we dont realize its a remnant operating strategically through organizations that are intent on shifting the american culture and discipling the country and that fog thats on christians is the collective witchcraft that comes over the body of christ because theres spirits being authorized to be released
wherever theres agreement theres power the more unbelievers agree with the narrative that theyre hearing the more power and authorization satan has to manifest so unless the church has an exposure of what the enemys doing and begins to agree together with a counterstrategy were going to deal with more and more fog and the worst part iswe dont have to surrender nations to the devil
so if you disagree with wallnau if you oppose trump it can only because youre manifesting the power of satan who in the old testament is gods lieutenant not his adversary so pick your testament i suppose
lance wallnau insists he is not a big conspiracy theorist buff but this doesnt do anything to convince us hes not some wackadoodle instead this is nothing new as a nonchristian being told that you represent a devil you dont even believe exists
there are years of history backing up the accusation and testifying to its usefulness for religious zealots hoping to delegitimize or worse their opponents
without charges of satanism and witchcraft you dont have the genocide of european and middle eastern paganism you dont have antijewish pogroms and you dont have the crusades or the spanish inquisition you dont have witchburnings
what this sort of nonsense illustrates for liberals and progressives is that were not fighting on the same battleground as our opponents
not only do they deal in a conspiracyladen world a world free of facts but a world in which what might be hiding under your bed or in your closet has real power and reason and lets go ahead and say sanity do not
lets face it donald trumps biggest enemy is not satan but donald trump himself and wallnau can claim believers have an edge all they want but all the belief in the world wont overturn reality | english | politicususa.com | http://15130-presscdn-0-89.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Paul-Ryan-Trump.jpg | bias | Real | donald trump tanking trump supporter waves hillary noose doll rally | jason easley sun oct th republicans hoped fbi director james comeys letter new clinton related emails would swing election new series cbs news battleground polls shows clinton keeping lead within points trump arizona share twitter print post cbs news republicans hoped fbi director james comeys letter new clinton related emails would swing election new series cbs news battleground polls shows clinton keeping lead within points trump arizona battleground tracker found small margin comeys letter made democrats likely net support clinton individual battleground states clinton leads eight points pennsylvania north carolina colorado state four polled trump small two point lead arizona according cbs news larger demographic difference defining race clinton donald trump gender gap slightly larger last time states offsets smaller movement republicans trump put another way hillary clintons support women going larger rate republican movement towards trump first swing state polls taken since fbi director comey released infamous letter friday email story isnt moving voters reinforcing partisanship election democrats going vote clinton republicans going vote trump arent enough undecided voters swing election trump republicans hoping hail mary touchdown save trump clinton continues lead critical states little week go election day comey letter big october surprise isnt working voters hillary clinton maintains swing state leads comey email letter flops added jason easley sun oct th | 1 |

video
chuck todd asked mook if he believed the email story could cost clinton the election
he answered
i dont think so look as i said we have over volunteers out there were seeing record early voting numbers in north carolina florida look i would wager in nevada turnout is so strong among democrats there hillary could build an insurmountable lead in the coming days in nevada were feeling really good about this record turnout over million people in our country now registered to vote fifty million of those are young people were just nose to the grindstone and were going to finish this out but people should not take anything for granted and were going to have to work hard to earn this
hillary clinton could put nevada out of reach for trump this week but whether or not that happens is up to the voters if democrats continue to vote in overwhelming numbers in swing states the email story wont matter if democrats dont show up that is trumps only chance of winning
the early voting numbers that hillary clinton is running up in florida north carolina and nevada are no accident clinton and the democratic party have invested heavily in an extensive get out the vote operation in early voting states
democrats already had a strategic advantage in early voting before the election but donal trumps refusal to invest in a substantial get out the vote operation has widened the gap between the two parties in this area
the final week before the election could be just as vital to democrats in swing states as election day if hillary clinton piles up big margins in early voting it could leave minimal drama for election night
the democratic early voting plan is working to perfection now as mook said all that is left is for democrats to put their heads down work hard and close the deal

the cbs news republicans hoped that fbi director james comeys letter about new clinton related emails would swing the election for them but a new series of cbs news battleground polls shows clinton keeping her lead and within points of trump in arizona
battleground tracker found that by a small margin comeys letter made democrats more likely net to support clinton
in the individual battleground states clinton leads by eight points in pennsylvania north carolina and in colorado the only state of the four polled where trump has a small two point lead in arizona
according to cbs news and the larger demographic difference defining the race between clinton and donald trump has been a gender gap slightly larger now than the last time in these states that offsets a smaller movement of republicans to trump
to put it another way hillary clintons support with women is going up at a larger rate than republican movement towards trump
these are the first swing state polls to be taken since fbi director comey released his now infamous letter on friday the email story isnt moving voters it is reinforcing the partisanship of the election democrats are going to vote clinton republicans are going to vote for trump and there arent enough undecided voters to swing the election to trump

Sarah Jones | 2016-10-27T20:50:29.628+03:00 | number of accusers grows to as former miss finland accuses trump of sexual assault | by robert franek on sun oct th at am imagine if working to end rape culture were treated with the same attention as hillary clintons emails this is one fire that is burning strong and is a true threat to personal and public safety security and wellbeing share on twitter print this post
the following post written by the rev robert a franek is a part of politicus policy discussion in which writers draw connections between real lives and public policy
even after months and months of coverage blown out of proportion and at great expense to the public in dollars psychic stress and issue coverage it seems all one has to do is put hillary clinton and emails together in the same sentence with claims of lying and threatening national security and pandemonium continues to break loose throughout the mass media and social media worlds and yet despite multiple investigations and repeated explanations the pandemonium persists so much so that every time republicans stir up some smoke the media assumes there must be a blazing fire and sadly this is not going away anytime soon as republicans are promising more sham investigations in lieu of actually governing as sarah jones reported
republicans are already planning how to avoid being grown ups who do their jobs if hillary clinton is elected president yes there will be more toythrowing and tantrums and best of all for the party of fiscal humiliations more wasteful spending on political witch hunts sarah jones
meanwhile women continue to come forward with painful heartbreaking stories of donald trumps sexual harassment and assault yet instead of being portrayed as survivors who have finally had enough of the republican presidential nominee and his lies and as women who have the strength and courage to go public with their stories they are being made into opportunistic victims and challenged for not coming forward sooner much sooner woefully no mention is made of the many intersecting reasons that lead many women and men not to report these crimes including that this is the only time when the victim is placed on trial
after walking her readers through one incident of donald trumps public sexual humiliation of a woman for revenge sarah jones makes the following observation
if there is any good to come out of the total crapfest of the trump candidacy perhaps it is a raised awareness that women are people and that this kind of thing is horrific but its not all trumps fault its the cultures fault because it takes a willing audience to successfully publicly sexually shame a woman
she is right donald trump is despicable still there is cultural culpability in the perpetuation of rape culture where women are treated as objects forced into silence and placed on trial for their assailants crimes
this must change
it is unacceptable in a country that places such a high value on freedom that so many are not free from sexual harassment assault exploitation and humiliation more it is appalling that such behavior is often cheered unchallenged and dismissed it is also inexcusable that survivors face unparalleled levels of scrutiny when they do finally come forward
it is also beyond tragic that people of faith who read the first chapter of genesis cant bear out the implications of men and women being created simultaneously and bearing equally the divine image
supposed christian values champion and republican vice presidential nominee mike pence is more upset over an article he didnt read regarding voter suppression efforts by the trump campaign than any of the horrifying things donald trump has said including bragging about sexual assault
these are not christian values nor are they values any civil society should hold failing to call out donald trumps abhorrent behavior and speech is beyond deplorable additionally supporting candidates like donald trump and mike pence gives validity to their wretched views and is especially shocking when done by people of faith and family values
as a society we must challenge the pervasive and systemic sexism and misogyny that persists in our culture as much as we need changes in our laws and lawmakers at every level of government to reflect the equality and humanity of women we need a moral revival in our collective conscience as a nation that decries every facet of rape culture from how we raise our children to the victim blaming and shaming that happens each time a survivor goes public with their story
imagine if working to end rape culture were treated with the same attention as hillary clintons emails this is one fire that is burning strong and is a true threat to personal and public safety security and wellbeing

senate democrats arent fooling around they want answers and they want them right now as more details become known fbi director comeys motives have come under criticism comey was advised by attorney general lynch not to send his letter until after the election but he sent it anyway
comey worried to fbi employees that his letter would be misunderstood but he could have easily avoided any misunderstanding by either being specific in his letter or not sending the letter at all it is becoming difficult to look at comeys actions in an objective manner and not see partisan political motivations
the fbi director has interfered in a presidential election with new emails that have nothing to do with the democratic nominee but can be used by her opponents for political purposes

such acts could also be prohibited under the hatch act which bars the use of an official position to influence an election that is why the fbi presumably would keep those aspects of an investigation confidential until after the election the usual penalty for a violation is termination of federal employment
and that is why on saturday i filed a complaint against the fbi with the office of special counsel which investigates hatch act violations and with the office of government ethics i have spent much of my career working on government ethics and lawyers ethics including two and a half years as the chief white house ethics lawyer for president george w bush and i never thought that the fbi could be dragged into a political circus surrounding one of its investigations until this week
this is the second complaint to be filed against fbi director comey the democratic coalition against trump has also filed a complaint against comey for interfering in a presidential election as a federal employee
suspicion around comeys actions has grown as the fbi director is not expected to make any additional statements on this matter before the presidential election director comey appears to have set himself for problems after the election as senate democrats are making it known that they are open to holding hearings to investigate the fbi investigation if they win back the senate majority

Jason Easley | 2016-10-28T00:33:09.717+03:00 | new polls suggest that republicans are on the cusp of a total election disaster | by jason easley on sun oct th at pm fox news sundays chris wallace tried to blame hillary clinton for the email scandal that republicans created and got destroyed by clinton campaign manager robbie mook share on twitter print this post
fox news sundays chris wallace tried to blame hillary clinton for the email scandal that republicans created and got destroyed by clinton campaign manager robbie mook
this exchange between fox news sunday host chris wallace and clinton campaign manager robbie mook highlighted why the email scandal isnt working for the gop
video
transcript via fox news sunday wallace the last question i want to ask you is that youre acting as if it was the director who brought this into the election when the fact is that it was hillary clinton who brought this into the election
i want to go back to the email exchange on march nd when the new york times broke the story about hillary clinton using private emails were going to put it up on the screen
clinton adviser neera tanden why didnt they get the stuff out like months ago so crazy
campaign chairman john podesta unbelievable tanden i guess i know the answer they wanted to get away with it
robby it was clinton who delayed and it was clinton who brought this into the presidential campaign
mook and it is secretary clinton who has said this was a mistake it is secretary clinton who cooperated fully with the investigation and it was secretary clinton who accepted the outcome of that investigation and what secretary clinton is doing now is saying if theres new information get it out on the table lets get it out these could be duplicates
again its been reported these emails may not have been sent or received by secretary clinton we dont know anything and this close to an election this unprecedented announcement of new information when when again its been reported by yahoo news that that the fbi may have not even seen it that that that director comey sent this unprecedented letter shortly before the election when he doesnt even know what the information is thats disturbing and were just asking him get everything out there that he knows
fox news has no evidence of wrongdoing on the part of clinton so they have been reduced to whining about why she didnt release the emails sooner what wallace left out was that the release of clintons emails represented an unprecedented level of disclosure
hillary clinton didnt cause this email scandal house republicans misused their benghazi select committee to go on a fishing expedition for hillary clintons emails
robbie mook destroyed fox news with facts because unlike donald trump hillary clinton hasnt worked to keep information hidden from the public trump has not released his tax returns medical records or an accounting of his business dealings with russia trump has been the least transparent nominee in more than years
republicans and conservative media are blaming clinton for the scandal that they created as justification for continuing the investigations of her after the election
clintons campaign manager was able to wipe the floor with the republican talking points because at the end of the day the email scandal remains a conspiracy about nothing | english | politicususa.com | http://15130-presscdn-0-89.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/rubio-water.jpg | bias | Real | trump proposes canceling election calls black communities ghettos ohio rally | full text sen reids letter director comey dear director comey actions recent months demonstrated disturbing double standard treatment sensitive information appears clear intent aid one political party another writing inform office determined actions may violate hatch act bars fbi officials using official authority influence election partisan actions may broken law double standard established actions clear communications top officials national security community become clear possess explosive information close ties coordination donald trump top advisors russian government foreign interest openly hostile united states trump praises every opportunity public right know information wrote months ago calling information released public danger american interests releasing yet continue resist calls inform public critical information contrast soon came possession slightest innuendo related secretary clinton rushed publicize negative light possible moreover tarring secretary clinton thin innuendo overruled longstanding tradition explicit guidance department rushed take step eleven days presidential election despite fact know information possess could entirely duplicative information already examined exonerated secretary clinton know memo authored deputy attorney general sally yates march makes clear justice department employees including subject hatch act memo defines political activity prohibited hatch act activity directed towards success failure political party candidate partisan political office partisan political group clear doublestandard established actions strongly suggests highly selective approach publicizing information along timing intended success failure partisan candidate political group please keep mind supporter past republicans filibustered nomination delayed confirmation longer previous nominee position led fight get confirmed believed principled public servant deepest regret see wrong sincerely senator harry reid reid basically accused comey violating hatch act releasing letter close presidential election even though harry reid retiring bad news comey reids letter clear sign senate democrats arent going let matter drop democrats take back senate director comey brace agencys methods going congressional investigation | 1 |

a trump supporter sporting a hillary for prison tshirt chanted jews sa in support of his candidate during a rally in arizona on saturday
the target was the pen of reporters who have been fodder for trumps rhetoric at every rally
the context while the crowd was chanting usa one man chanted jews sa words like that cant be spun or read into the intent and meaning were obvious to everyone
watch here on video obtained by the huffington post
this sort of thing comes as no surprise considering that donald trump spent the last year spewing hate filled venom in every possible direction it may seem superfluous to restate every category of people for which trump has shown contempt but it is not
muslims jews immigrants labor taxpayers latinos hispanics mexicans africanamericans women pows veterans people with disabilities gold star families and the military have felt the sting of trumps words and the disdain in his heart
throughout this campaign season the vitriol against hillary clinton saw no limit signs and tshirts too disgusting to quote in this article chants of lock her up at the republican convention and since trump promised his base of thugs lowlifes and haters he would weaken the first amendment strengthen the second and establish the altright utopia
hillary clinton was already the most qualified candidate in this race she also proved to have more stamina than any previous candidate needed not only was she competing against a vicious and pathological liar she was competing for who we are and who we could be for all the trump claims that the media is rigged in clintons favor it was trump who got free advertising who framed the narrative and whose words were the primary news stories of the campaign
there is no doubt that hillary clinton will keep her promise to fight for us she has been doing it from the beginning of this campaign every time hillary clinton called out donald trumps sexist comments she was fighting for all women who were attacked humiliated and sexually abused by men like trump every time clinton shamed trumps horrific and disgusting comments about the khan family she was standing up for every gold star family she was also standing up for every muslimamerican the same is true every time clinton condemned trump for mocking a disabled reporter or resorted to altright stereotypes about africanamericans innercities and africanamerican communities
every time trump spewed hate in whatever direction hillary clinton defended the target
so no this isnt about choosing the lesser of two evils like every election this is about choosing our next president more importantly its about voting for who we are and who we aspire to be

your actions in recent months have demonstrated a disturbing double standard for the treatment of sensitive information with what appears to be a clear intent to aid one political party over another i am writing to inform you that my office has determined that these actions may violate the hatch act which bars fbi officials from using their official authority to influence an election through your partisan actions you may have broken the law
the double standard established by your actions is clear
in my communications with you and other top officials in the national security community it has become clear that you possess explosive information about close ties and coordination between donald trump his top advisors and the russian government a foreign interest openly hostile to the united states which trump praises at every opportunity the public has a right to know this information i wrote to you months ago calling for this information to be released to the public there is no danger to american interests from releasing it and yet you continue to resist calls to inform the public of this critical information
by contrast as soon as you came into possession of the slightest innuendo related to secretary clinton you rushed to publicize it in the most negative light possible
moreover in tarring secretary clinton with thin innuendo you overruled longstanding tradition and the explicit guidance of your own department you rushed to take this step eleven days before a presidential election despite the fact that for all you know the information you possess could be entirely duplicative of the information you already examined which exonerated secretary clinton
as you know a memo authored by deputy attorney general sally yates on march makes clear that all justice department employees including you are subject to the hatch act the memo defines the political activity prohibited under the hatch act as activity directed towards the success or failure of a political party candidate for partisan political office or partisan political group
the clear doublestandard established by your actions strongly suggests that your highly selective approach to publicizing information along with your timing was intended for the success or failure of a partisan candidate or political group
please keep in mind that i have been a supporter of yours in the past when republicans filibustered your nomination and delayed your confirmation longer than any previous nominee to your position i led the fight to get you confirmed because i believed you to be a principled public servant
with the deepest regret i now see that i was wrong
sincerely

talk about burying the lede
in senator harry reids letter in which he suggests that fbi director james comey may have broken the law the hatch law he also drops the bomb that the fbi and national security experts possess explosive information about ties and coordination between russia and donald trump and his campaign
reid writes in my communications with you and other top officials in the national security community it has become clear that you possess explosive information about close ties and coordination between donald trump his top advisors and the russian government a foreign interest openly hostile to the united states which trump praises at every opportunity
reid points out the disturbing double standard in comeys treatment of sensitive information between the two parties with a clear intent to aid one over the other
if the fbi and national security experts have information that donald trump and or his campaign are colluding or collaborating to bring about a particular result regarding the us election or our foreign policy stances this is an emergency
which issue is so much of an emergency that a federal official might consider dropping the bomb just days before an election electing someone who is conspiring with russia or electing someone whose aide may have sent an email she forget to tell everyone about
the double standard is not only troubling at this point but dangerous
bomb dropped
everyone already suspected trumps ties to russia and his campaign has been full of ties to the kremlin but now reid has confirmed information about coordination between trump and russia
now that ladies and gentlemen is an october shocker
reids full letter follows

the trump campaign is now that reality detached place where a few true believers are running the show this is why trump is going to spend the last week of his presidential campaign in blue states that he has no chance of winning trump still thinks that he can win michigan wisconsin and new mexico wisconsin might be the most laughable of three delusions because trump was routed in the republican primary there and gop support from wisconsin republicans like paul ryan and scott walker has been lukewarm at best
these are the final days that all losing campaigns go through when the nominee refuses to accept the likelihood of their defeat the comey letter didnt move the needle for trump it didnt give him a surge of national momentum or make the majority of voters rethink their support for hillary clinton

Jason Easley | 2016-10-28T03:20:33.086+03:00 | retired star general blasts trump for not supporting us troops | by rmuse on sun oct th at pm the fbi has a solemn obligation to remain neutral in political matters the faintest appearance of using the agency to influence our election is deeply troubling share on twitter print this post the following is an opinion column by r muse
as a nation of laws the american people should and most likely do demand that law enforcement officials hew as closely to the law as humanly possible and that goes double for the countrys largest investigative agency one thing every american who has ever watched a law enforcement press conference after a crime has occurred understands is that the public never really knows the details of an investigation regardless the severity of the crime or who the suspect is as an occasional print journalist this author can attest that asking a police spokesman for details during a press conference about what the police are doing or who they are investigating never fails to get a stern scolding about expecting law enforcement to reveal any facts during an investigation for glaringly obvious reasons the scold always includes referral to the agency responsible for charging and prosecuting a crime after the investigation is complete and the results are handed over to the local district attorney
apparently the federal bureau of investigation fbi director james comey never got the memo that discussing an investigation publicly is verboten if for no other reason than to maintain the integrity of said investigation and not hamper a possible prosecution however as it turns out mr comey did get a memo from the department of justice in the form of a warning but because he is a law unto himself and his allegiance is to house republicans and not the department of justice he ignored the doj counsel to do a solid for the gop less than two weeks before a presidential election
since mr comey cant keep it investigations in his pants or follow longstanding law enforcement and investigative rules or take heed to justice department warnings it is incumbent on president barack obama to summarily fire fbi director james comey on the morning of wednesday november th why should president obama wait until the day after a general election to fire the partisan director of the fbi so as not to give the appearance of any impropriety or partisanship during a campaign or just prior a presidential election something fbi director james comey is apparently incapable of comprehending
this incident just like the one in july when comey broke precedent and convened a press conference in july and then publicly testified before congress to discuss the bureaus ongoing investigation is more than just a breach of precedent it smacks of partisanship for more than one reason first as mentioned above not only did the department of justice warn mr comey that it was inappropriate to discuss an ongoing investigation at all much less so close to an election that warning came after the fbi contacted the doj about going public with information the bureau admitted it had not yet even reviewed that was precisely what comey told his republican buddies in a letter to congress
in the letter comey told congressional republicans that the fbi really had no clue whether any of the emails were related to hillary clintons private email server but what he did know for sure was that they appeared to be pertinent even though his agency the fbi had not yet examined them so the real pertinent question is why did mr comey publicly inform congress about emails the agency had not yet examined if he wasnt attempting to inject some partisan drama into the election that might have deleterious impact on the outcome
it is just as pertinent a question as demanding to know from mr comey precisely what his motivation was in holding a press conference back in july to discuss the agencys finding on an investigation before the doj weighed in or discuss that investigation in public and before a viciously partisan republican committee in congress and no it was not to defend the bureaus decision not to bring criminal charges against clinton only a braindead moronic imbecile or partisan republican hack would begin to think that the fbi cia local sheriff or any police investigative agency has the ability to bring charges to prosecute a violation for dogs sake even the s fictional sheriff andy griffiths hapless deputy barney fife was competent enough to comprehend that a district attorneys office or department of justice is tasked with prosecution any violation of the law
according to mr comey who was stung by criticism from both democrats and republicans as well as former prosecutors and appeared to be on the defensive he felt obligated to inform republicans in congress even though the bureau really didnt know the significance of this newly discovered collection of emails likely because he knew they did not come from hillary clinton as an aside sarah jones has a nifty summary of the email caper the fbi uncovered while investigating serial sexter anthony weiners laptop computer ipad and cellphone and no anthony weiner was not sexting nasty pictures to presidential candidate hillary clinton
it doesnt matter what kind of pathetic excuse comey gave for publicly commenting on an ongoing investigation it is virtually impossible to believe he didnt have partisan intents and purposes in publicly alerting house republicans as interim chairwoman of the democratic national committee donna brazile said the fbi has a solemn obligation to remain neutral in political matters even the faintest appearance of using the agencys power to influence our election is deeply troubling ms brazile demanded more information from comey and didnt conceal her concern over comey interfering with the election
mr comey claimed very conveniently one might add that as a diedinthewool republican he contributed to john mccain and willard romneys presidential campaigns in and respectively that he is not a republican now that was his remark back in july when he first began breaking precedent and revealing information about an investigation that was the proper purview of the department of justice not the federal bureau of investigation it was a suspicious confession in july and it is nearly impossible to believe in late october after he ignored department of justice warnings and revealed information about an ongoing investigation into a disgraced former congressman and serial sexter just days before an election and before the bureau had even reviewed anything
comey cannot possibly remain as head of the federal bureau of investigation after twice revealing information about an ongoing investigation if comey hadnt taken heat for his reveal in july and a warning from the justice department this week then one might just regard him as an inept law enforcement official pulling a publicity stunt for attention but since he was warned and is not an inept law enforcement official it is more than reasonable to believe that comeys most recent act was a partisan political ploy that should earn him a summary termination on november because firing his partisan personage just prior to the general election would break a longstanding precedent and look like a highly partisan move something a sap like james comey might try but not president obama | english | politicususa.com | http://15130-presscdn-0-89.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Screen-Shot-2016-10-27-at-8.25.39-PM.png | bias | Real | trumps new defense strategy access hollywood tape blame microphone | hrafnkell haraldsson mon oct st donald trump candidate frequently saying false things day days share twitter print post cnns brian stelter calls donald trump uniquely factchallenged candidate prelude introducing daniel dale washington correspondent toronto star fact checks every single word trump utters tallies paper dale says factcheckers look two three things trump says meticulously factchecks posts article doesnt work candidate frequently saying false things day days example dale tallied trump lies tuesday october donald trump said false things yesterday trumpcheck pictwittercomewfyfedfx daniel dale ddale october dale pointed followed recordtying false claims monday coincidentally day trump called fact checkers scum watch courtesy cnns reliable sources massive imbalance frequency dishonesty ddale says trump lies lot clinton httpstcokpkvpntmo reliable sources reliablesources october mainstream media likes play false equivalence game equivalence trump clinton dale told stelter massive imbalance frequency dishonesty trump says dale normal political liar example look presidential debates dale found trump false statements opposed clinton dales judgment comparison level accuracy opponent trump also lies pointlessly argues dale explaining brian stelter gets things wrong political advantage gained cases clear whether hes lying confused unwilling take time learn facts mark cubans complaint course trump interest learning end matters less trump lies especially since busily convincing base hillary clinton dishonest candidate working trope frequently repeated trumps supporters correct often want effect lie taken hold one many many likely expected observational bias takes care rest trump base effectively lost shared reality dale tweeted last night trump loses smart republican excavation going involve long hard base reeducation given gops history facts good luck image screen capture twitter | 1 |

last summer the court granted the school boards request to put a lower court ruling in the students favor on hold until the board filed its petition for review by the supreme court justice breyer joined the conservative justices in that ruling as a courtesy
the virginia school board established a policy mirroring bathroom police laws in red states like north carolina that required students to use rest rooms and locker rooms to correspond with the gender they were assigned at birth
in this case the district court ruled against gg by relying on a regulation allowing schools to provide separate toilet locker room and shower facilities based on sex provided those facilities are comparable to those provided to the opposite sex
in january the department of educations office of civil rights issued a letter opining that if schools separate students in restroom and locker rooms based on their sex a school must treat transgender students in a manner consistent with their gender identity
because of that letter the us court of appeals for the th circuit reversed the lower court ruling in favor of gg it relied on a supreme court decision that courts generally should defer to an agencys interpretation of its own regulation
in reality the right wing hopes to achieve two political objectives with this case first this is about denying basic rights and dignity to people who are transgender which is consistent with their ideological opposition to rights for women poc and members of the lgbt community second the right wing is hoping to weaken federal agencies by attacking their ability to interpret their own

Sean Colarossi | 2016-10-28T04:10:02.350+03:00 | trumps new defense strategy on access hollywood tape blame the microphone | by hrafnkell haraldsson on mon oct st at am in donald trump you have a candidate who is frequently saying false things in a day up to on some days share on twitter print this post
cnns brian stelter calls donald trump a uniquely factchallenged candidate which is a prelude to introducing daniel dale washington correspondent for the toronto star who fact checks every single word trump utters and tallies them up for his paper
dale says most factcheckers look at two or three things trump says meticulously factchecks them and posts an article but that doesnt work when you have a candidate who is frequently saying false things in a day up to on some days
for example dale tallied trump lies on tuesday october donald trump said false things yesterday trumpcheck pictwittercomewfyfedfx
daniel dale ddale october
which as dale pointed out followed his recordtying false claims on monday not coincidentally a day on which trump called fact checkers scum
watch courtesy of cnns reliable sources there is a massive imbalance in the frequency of dishonesty ddale says trump lies a lot more than clinton httpstcokpkvpntmo
reliable sources reliablesources october
the mainstream media likes to play the false equivalence game but there is no equivalence between trump and clinton as dale told stelter there is a massive imbalance in the frequency of dishonesty trump says dale is not a normal political liar
for example look at the presidential debates in which dale found trump false statements as opposed to by clinton
dales judgment is that there is no comparison in her level of accuracy with her opponent
trump also lies pointlessly argues dale explaining to brian stelter that
he gets things wrong where there is no political advantage to be gained and in those cases it is not clear whether hes lying or confused or unwilling to take the time to learn the facts
this was mark cubans complaint of course that trump has no interest in learning
in the end it matters less why trump lies than that he does especially since he is busily convincing his base that hillary clinton is the dishonest candidate and it is working this is a trope frequently repeated by trumps supporters you can correct them as often as you want it will have no effect
the lie has taken hold one of many many more than you likely expected and observational bias takes care of the rest the trump base is effectively lost to our shared reality and as dale tweeted last night
if trump loses the smart republican excavation is going to have to involve some long hard base reeducation
given the gops history with facts good luck with that

Sean Colarossi | 2016-10-28T05:12:12.375+03:00 | trump is ahead in zero national polls while the media continues close race narrative | by rmuse am the archdiocese holds the matter among its highest priorities if passed the law would have significantly detrimental impacts on our parishes our ministries the following is an opinion column by r muse
for almost all secular humanists organized religion is nothing more than an easy means of controlling people through fear and intimidation throughout recorded history the catholic church has been responsible for all manner of devious machinations to control not just its adherents but any humans it comes in contact with that lust to control human beings has continued unabated into the st century and in america like the rest of the earth the catholics number one focus has been on controlling women apparently the catholic church in massachusetts wants to expand its control over the population
on friday the boston globe reported that the archdiocese of boston dropped about a million dollars in a lastditch effort to exert church control over massachusetts law and citizens to stop marijuana from being legalized for recreational use other reports reveal that the taxexempt political spending is meant to help defeat a massachusetts ballot measure question question simply legalizes cannabis for recreational use for people over and creates a commission to regulate marijuana in the state of massachusetts question contains no references to the catholic or any other church and makes no claim of trying to impact ministries
a spokesman for the boston archdiocese terrence donilon made a truly pathetic attempt at justifying the catholic churchs political donation to the campaign against massachusetts version of legalized recreational marijuana saying
it reflects the fact that the archdiocese holds the matter among its highest priorities its a recognition that if passed the law would have significantly detrimental impacts on our parishes our ministries
seriously that has to be one of the most monumental piles of bovine excrement of a reason to use taxfree congregants donations to interfere in an election ever offered nowhere in massachusetts or any states decriminalization statutes is any church mentioned much less affected by the outcome of an election catholic priests will still be free to sexually abuse little boys if adults can legally purchase and consume cannabis and despite residents having a toke in the privacy of their homes the church will still frighten its members into increasing their tithes and the usccb will still attempt to control and dominate all american women no reefer decriminalization will impact the catholic ministry but it will drastically reduce the number of people being arrested and imprisoned for marijuana possession free up law enforcement to pursue nasty pedophile priests and relieve americas overburdened judicial system
now the catholics claim that people using cannabis legally whether they inhale or eat it will have significantly detrimental impacts on their ministries that is an odd assertion on yet another point surely part of catholic ministries is teaching according to their gods word in the christian bible it is nearly certain that every catholic priest on the planet including those in massachusetts are aware of gods word in genesis where in chapter verse the catholics almighty god said
out of the ground the lord god caused to grow every tree that is pleasing to the sight and good for food and he continues in verses then the lord god took the man and put him into the garden of eden to cultivate it and keep it the lord god commanded the man saying from any tree of the garden you may eat freely but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat for in the day that you eat from it you will surely die
although there is recorded evidence that cannabis was first discovered to be used for its medicinal qualities years ago there is no record of reefer ever being confused with the tree of the knowledge of good and evil weed is not and will not affect the catholic ministries if it is decriminalized today any more than it has over the past twothousand years the catholic church has existed and cannabis was either unknown to the clergy or illegal
in a reaction to the news the archdiocese was interfering with politics with taxexempt money an advocate and spokesman for the yes on question jim borghesani said
the archdiocese has come up with a position that frankly we think is based on unfounded assumptions and junk science what i think the archdiocese is missing is the terrible harm that marijuana prohibition has done to people of color to people who have chosen a substance that is less dangerous than alcohol and have had their lives ruined because theyve been arrested
one wonders if part of the boston archdioceses ministry entails increasing the number of americans mainly americans of color sent to prison for possessing or using a plant that god caused to grow and was pleasing to the sight and good to eat obviously that is the case and according to a new set of data keeping marijuana illegal means keeping americans arrested for drug possession at a rate of every seconds of every day of the year
why is the catholic church so interested in perpetuating the failed war on drugs in general and the criminalization of marijuana in particular as noted by michael stone over at patheos what the massachusetts catholics and mormons are actually helping to sustain is in reality a war on poor people and people of color mr stone really nails it when he said that by spending taxexempt donations on a political agenda to defend the unjust prohibition on marijuana the catholic church is guilty of perpetuating the failed war on drugs and the new jim crow
the archdiocese is also guilty of hypocrisy besides implicit racism because any religious organization that condones and even promotes the use of alcohol while using taxexempt donations to maintain the ridiculous prohibition on cannabis is morally indefensible mormons are also busy instructing lds members to vote against all state initiatives that seek to decriminalize and regulate recreational marijuana use as if it has any affect whatsoever on either their private mormon lives or their lds ministry but they allegedly dont condone or enjoy alcohol so they just have control issues and are not blatant hypocrites at least where cannabis decriminalization is concerned
the massachusetts catholics may not be violating the law by acting as an antimarijuana super pac but they are using taxexempt member donations to politically influence an election and control other americans lives the church is all about wielding ultimate control over all facets of american society however if the church is so flush with money why not use that money to compensate the thousands of victims of the churchs pedophile priests or dog forbid use that taxexempt donors money to help the people of massachusetts in need
the catholic church is guilty of using fear and intimidation to control its own adherents and that is down to frightened people needing a daddy figure in the church to tell them what is right what is wrong and how to stay out of the proverbial hell that is all well and good for people that willingly cry out for a controlling organization speaking for a deity but for people that are not in the church it is an affront to use donated taxexempt money to impact read control their private lives the only good news out of this abominable story is that it looks like question will pass with relative ease informing that the archdiocese wasted about a million dollars of its congregations hardearned money
this is yet another example of why all churches should be taxed like every other business and american citizen except donald trump it is morally obnoxious that the archdiocese is using the congregations donations for political purposes to influence an election and yet another sign that there is no area the church considers as out of bounds in attempting to control every aspect of society with taxexempt funds wrung out of hardworking americans many of whom use recreational cannabis

Hrafnkell Haraldsson | 2016-10-28T16:28:39.022+03:00 | in the first days of october trump gave just k to his own campaign | by hrafnkell haraldsson am we cant do waterboarding its far too tough were fighting on a different level we have to be toughand in some cases pretty vicious
donald trump complains about spending a fortune on a war in the middle east that he supported a war brought to us by a republican administration that knowingly lied about the facts trump is also lying about the facts which at least brings our countrys middle east ordeal fullcircle
according to trump speaking at a rally in new mexico and youve no doubt seen the barrage of commercials repeating the same lie hillary brought disaster to iraq syria libya and every place that she touches she empowered iran and she unleashed isis by leaving that big vacuum
of course it was republican president george w bush who negotiated the balance of forces agreement with iraq stipulating that america draw down its combat strength reneging on that agreement would have meant not peace in iraq or a negation of isis but a second us invasion on top of the rise of isis
we want peace through strength trump told the crowd we dont want to be in wars but these savages are chopping off heads
well in fact we did want to be in that war we invaded iraq not vice versa
trump went on to say
drowning people in steel cages burying people in the sand we havent had this is medieval times this is medieval times and then we cant do waterboarding its far too tough you know were fighting on a different level see were fighting on a different level folks and we have to be tough and we have to be smart and we have to be in some cases pretty vicious to be honest with you pretty vicious but we have to take them out and then we have to get back to building our country because our country weve spent trillion in the middle east trillion and we couldve rebuilt our country twice
never mind for a moment that torture is illegal under international law never mind that a senate intelligence committees report said torture doesnt work trumps argument sounds once again like a child wanting to get back at another child who has aggrieved him
this is trump wanting to spite his enemies on an international scale and arguing to boot that the end justifies the means
he doesnt because he cant prove that acting like barbarians somehow doesnt make us barbarians ourselves he certainly cant prove because that senate report says otherwise that torturing people will win the war
the claim of million by the way is one trump made last week in charlotte nc as well and politifact ruled it half true at the time saying
trump is citing the highend estimate of credible analyses of spending associated with the wars in iraq and afghanistan yet he is confusing money thats been spent with money that researchers say will be spent
the point here is that this is a war begun not by obama and certainly not by hillary clinton who at least admits she supported it and has apologized for doing so while trump continued to deny he was ever for it despite the facts to the contrary
when trump says we have to be pretty vicious he is also saying we have to be pretty dishonest and nobody lies with such success or at such a rate as donald trump
trump has said he loves war he has said he likes to be unpredictable he has asked why we cant use nuclear weapons since we have them this is a man most national security experts say should not have the nuclear football in his hands
this is a man who no matter how much he claims otherwise does not understand how the world works and he does not understand that by promoting torture he is only fulfilling the wildest propaganda wishes of the islamic state by promising to do precisely what they want him to do | english | politicususa.com | http://15130-presscdn-0-89.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/kirk-duckworth-thailand.jpg | bias | Real | banishment trump begun american people tuning | hrafnkell haraldsson mon oct st pm trump refused produce records sought prosecutors months said oath destroying whole time share twitter print post newsweek kurt eichenwald struck reporting donald trump refused produce records sought prosecutors months said oath destroying whole time whole strategy writes newsweek article swears written comeys announcement deny impede delay destroying documents court ordered hand reveals republican nominee father real estate company battled federal government civil charges refused rent apartments africanamericans shortly government filed case october trump attacked falsely declared reporters feds evidence father discriminated minorities instead attempting force lease welfare recipients couldnt pay rentthe familys attempts slow federal case times nonsensical trump submitted affidavit contending government engaged unspecified wrongdoing releasing statements press day brought case without first formal communications contended hed learned complaint listening car radio morning trumps sworn statement lie court records show government filed complaint phoned almost immediately afterward government later notified media press release six months original filing case nowhere trumps repeatedly ignored deadlines produce records answers questions known interrogatoriesfinally subpoena trump appeared short deposition asked missing documents made shocking admission trumps destroying corporate records previous six months documentretention program conducted inspections determine files might sought discovery requests might otherwise related case instead order save space trump testified officials company tossing documents shredder garbage trump accuse hillary clinton destroying emails nearly every day means covering deflecting misdeeds regard false affidavits deny delay strategies writes eichenwald trump cos hid destroyed records sought court donald trump world class liar man known deflection tactics projecting guilt onto others foundation trouble point finger clinton foundation sexual assault allegations point finger bill hillary clinton kurt eichenwald dug donald trumps deplorable past revealed real donald trump pretty revelation eichenwald david fahrenthold shows trump even worse human last wonder deplorables love much turns trump put investigators months destroyed emails added hrafnkell haraldsson mon oct st | 1 |

Jason Easley | 2016-10-28T18:10:27.176+03:00 | the banishment of trump has begun as the american people are tuning him out | by hrafnkell haraldsson on mon oct st at pm trump refused produce records sought by prosecutors for months said under oath was destroying them whole time share on twitter print this post
newsweek s kurt eichenwald has struck again reporting that donald trump refused produce records sought by prosecutors for months said under oath was destroying them whole time
the whole strategy he writes at newsweek in an article he swears was written before comeys announcement was deny impede and delay while destroying documents the court had ordered them to hand over
in he reveals the republican nominee his father and their real estate company battled the federal government over civil charges that they refused to rent apartments to africanamericans
shortly after the government filed its case in october trump attacked he falsely declared to reporters that the feds had no evidence he and his father discriminated against minorities but instead were attempting to force them to lease to welfare recipients who couldnt pay their rentthe familys attempts to slow down the federal case were at times nonsensical trump submitted an affidavit contending that the government had engaged in some unspecified wrongdoing by releasing statements to the press on the day it brought the case without first having any formal communications with him he contended that hed learned of the complaint only while listening to his car radio that morning but trumps sworn statement was a lie court records show that the government had filed its complaint at am and phoned him almost immediately afterward the government later notified the media with a press release six months after the original filing the case was nowhere because the trumps had repeatedly ignored the deadlines to produce records and answers to questions known as interrogatoriesfinally under subpoena trump appeared for a short deposition when asked about the missing documents he made a shocking admission the trumps had been destroying their corporate records for the previous six months and had no documentretention program they had conducted no inspections to determine which files might have been sought in the discovery requests or might otherwise be related to the case instead in order to save space trump testified officials with his company had been tossing documents into the shredder and garbage
so trump can accuse hillary clinton of destroying emails and he does nearly every day but only as a means of covering up and deflecting his own misdeeds in that regard
with false affidavits and deny and delay strategies writes eichenwald trump his cos hid and destroyed records sought in court
donald trump is a world class liar and a man known for his deflection tactics projecting his own guilt onto others his foundation in trouble point the finger at the clinton foundation sexual assault allegations point the finger at bill and hillary clinton
once again kurt eichenwald has dug into donald trumps deplorable past and revealed the real donald trump its not pretty and each revelation from eichenwald and david fahrenthold shows trump to be an even worse human being than the last
it is no wonder his deplorables love him so much
it turns out trump put off investigators for months while he destroyed emails added by hrafnkell haraldsson on mon oct st | english | politicususa.com | http://15130-presscdn-0-89.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/trump-freak-out.jpg | bias | Real | moronic trump campaign thinks reopened clinton email investigation save | sean colarossi mon oct st pm cnn obtained audio north carolina gop senator richard burr joking gun owners putting bullseye hillary clinton share twitter print post cnn obtained brand new audio north carolina republican senator richard burr joking gun owners putting bullseye hillary clinton despicable comments come burr faces close senate race democratic opponent deborah ross candidates within point according realclearpolitics cnn report north carolina republican locked tight race reelection quipped walked gun shop nothing made feel better seeing magazine rifles picture hillary clinton front little bit shocked didnt bullseye said saturday gop volunteers prompting laughter crowd mooresville north carolina bottom right magazine everybody federal office particular state vote let assure theres army support right candidates type rhetoric hardly uncommon comes republican leaders campaign gone hateful violent rhetoric particularly man top republican ticket become increasingly worse one point year donald trump suggested second amendment people take arms clinton nominates supreme court justices dont like also said hed like see happens democratic nominees bodyguards disarmed cnn notes trump never issued genuine apology dangerous language anything hes ever said done burr quickly came statement audio revealed although excuse said comment made inappropriate apologize republican senator said according cnn type imagery place politics regardless whether said public private especially given heightened level anger hatred toward hillary clinton trump supporters whether trump burr voters remember irresponsible language go vote one week | 1 |

cnn has obtained brand new audio of north carolina republican senator richard burr joking about gun owners putting a bullseye on hillary clinton
the despicable comments come as burr faces a close senate race against democratic opponent deborah ross both candidates are within a point of each other according to realclearpolitics
more of the cnn report
the north carolina republican locked in a tight race for reelection quipped that as he walked into a gun shop nothing made me feel better than seeing a magazine about rifles with a picture of hillary clinton on the front of it
i was a little bit shocked at that it didnt have a bullseye on it he said saturday to gop volunteers prompting laughter from the crowd in mooresville north carolina but on the bottom right of the magazine it had everybody for federal office in this particular state that they should vote for so let me assure you theres an army of support out there right now for our candidates
this type of rhetoric is hardly uncommon when it comes to republican leaders in as the campaign has gone on the hateful and violent rhetoric particularly from the man at the top of the republican ticket has become increasingly worse
at one point this year donald trump suggested that second amendment people should take up arms against clinton if she nominates a supreme court justices they dont like he also said that hed like to see what happens if the democratic nominees bodyguards were disarmed
as cnn notes trump has never issued a genuine apology for his dangerous language or anything hes ever said or done but burr quickly came out with a statement once the audio was revealed although it does not excuse what he said
the comment i made was inappropriate and i apologize for it the republican senator said according to cnn
this type of imagery has no place in our politics regardless of whether its being said in public or private especially given the heightened level of anger and hatred toward hillary clinton from trump supporters

a new report is painting cia director james comey as having used his office to influence the presidential election as comey sent a letter about hillary clintons emails but refused to call out russia for meddling in the election by hacking democrats
cnbc reported fbi director james comey argued privately that it was too close to election day for the united states government to name russia as meddling in the us election and ultimately ensured that the fbis name was not on the document that the us government put out a former fbi official tells cnbc
according to the former official comey agreed with the conclusion the intelligence community came to a foreign power was trying to undermine the election he believed it to be true but was against putting it out before the election comeys position this official said was if it is said it shouldnt come from the fbi which as youll recall it did not
director comey didnt want to interfere in the presidential election by releasing information that could harm republican presidential nominee donald trump but he had no qualms about sending a letter to congress about emails that he had never seen in an apparent effort to interfere in the current presidential election
with each new revelation and detail it is becoming impossible not to come to the conclusion that fbi director comey may have violated the hatch act with his letter to congress it is illegal for federal employees to use their positions to interfere in elections
when the information was bad for donald trump comey argued that it should not be publicly released so close to the election however he embraced a different standard when he had less information but could frame it in a way that could damage hillary clintons campaign
it is becoming clear that comey has abused his power and must be removed as fbi director immediately | english | politicususa.com | http://15130-presscdn-0-89.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/clinton-victory-speech.jpg | bias | Real | marco rubio inches closer unemployment poll shows florida senate race tie | hillary clinton supporting priorities usa super pac released powerful ad makes closing argument women get vote support democratic nominee video ad set carole king classic natural woman sung daughter ad features clips ordinary women living lives mixed clips elinor roosevelt rosa parks sally ride hillary clinton twothirds way ad trump appears audio calling women fat pigs slobs fat asses flat chested among insults screen shots women holding cards hashtag vote message clear powerful absolutely devastating women need vote behavior donald trump words donald trump treatment women must rejected time americans conscience lead way realistic us society women lead way women provide moral voice rejects trump according polling women lead way hillary clinton win presidential cnn asked trump campaign comment ad request met silence donald trumps words talking voters need hear | 1 |

but the republican presidential nominee appears to have taken issue with some of the services provided by the veteran gop strategist who has advised candidates from gop nominee bob dole to florida gov rick scott the trump campaigns latest federal election commission report shows that it is disputing nearly that fabrizios firm says it is still owed for polling
trumps decision not to pay his pollster is the first of this type of story but given trumps history of not paying for services performed it wont be the last it is astonishing that the party of supposed fiscal responsibility and conservativism would put someone forward as their presidential nominee who has made a career out of running up debt for personal gain
donald trumps mentality has always been to put himself first paying his debts never seems to have been a top priority for trump his businesses have been stiffing vendors and contractors for decades so it isnt surprising that he would bring this same mentality to the presidential campaign
anybody who works for the trump campaign would be smart to get paid up front because donald trumps version of making america great involves taking your money and putting it in his own pocket

while the media continues to focus on what is increasingly becoming a nonstory fbi director james comeys vague letter regarding more emails related to hillary clinton news about donald trumps ties to russia continues to gain steam
not only did nbc just report that the fbi is now in the preliminary stages of investigating trumps excampaign managers connection to russia but slate also reported on monday that a trump server may have repeatedly been communicating with a russian bank
slate claims that while a group of computer scientists was looking into the russian cyber attack of the dnc they stumbled onto something unexpectedly
the report
in late july one of these scientistswho asked to be referred to as tea leaves a pseudonym that would protect his relationship with the networks and banks that employ him to sift their datafound what looked like malware emanating from russia the destination domain had trump in its name which of course attracted tea leaves attention but his discovery of the data was pure happenstancea surprising needle in a large haystack of dns lookups on his screen i have an outlier here that connects to russia in a strange way he wrote in his notes he couldnt quite figure it out at first but what he saw was a bank in moscow that kept irregularly pinging a server registered to the trump organization on fifth avenue
more data was needed so he began carefully keeping logs of the trump servers dns activity as he collected the logs he would circulate them in periodic batches to colleagues in the cybersecurity world six of them began scrutinizing them for clues
the researchers quickly dismissed their initial fear that the logs represented a malware attack the communication wasnt the work of bots the irregular pattern of server lookups actually resembled the pattern of human conversationconversations that began during office hours in new york and continued during office hours in moscow it dawned on the researchers that this wasnt an attack but a sustained relationship between a server registered to the trump organization and two servers registered to an entity called alfa bank
this news doesnt come out of nowhere trump has repeatedly praised vladimir putin as a strong leader all while taking prorussia positions throughout the campaign that come straight off a kremlin wishlist
the clinton campaign was quick to jump on the report in a statement by clinton senior policy adviser jake sullivan
this secret hotline may be the key to unlocking the mystery of trumps ties to russia it certainly seems the trump organization felt it had something to hide given that it apparently took steps to conceal the link when it was discovered by journalists
this line of communication may help explain trumps bizarre adoration of vladimir putin and endorsement of so many prokremlin positions throughout this campaign it raises even more troubling questions in light of russias masterminding of hacking efforts that are clearly intended to hurt hillary clintons campaign we can only assume that federal authorities will now explore this direct connection between trump and russia as part of their existing probe into russias meddling in our elections
trumps prorussia rhetoric and policy positions are not a coincidence the more information that comes out the clearer it is that the republican nominee has connections to russia that he is hiding from voters

Jason Easley | 2016-10-28T22:03:39.478+03:00 | revived clinton email scandal killed by a slew of new facts in record time | by sean colarossi on mon oct st at pm trump used a tax avoidance maneuver so legally dubious his own lawyers advised him that the internal revenue service would likely declare it improper if he were audited share on twitter print this post
while donald trump has repeatedly said he took advantage of loopholes that allowed him to legally pay nothing in federal income taxes for decades the new york times reported on monday that trump may have actually crossed a legal boundary to avoid paying his fair share
according to the times the republican nominee used a tax avoidance maneuver so legally dubious his own lawyers advised him that the internal revenue service would likely declare it improper if he were audited
the report
tax experts who reviewed the newly obtained documents for the new york times said mr trumps tax avoidance maneuver conjured from ambiguous provisions of highly technical tax court rulings clearly pushed the edge of the envelope of what tax laws permitted at the time whatever loophole existed was not exploited here but stretched beyond any recognition said steven m rosenthal a senior fellow at the nonpartisan tax policy center who helped draft tax legislation in the early s
moreover the tax experts said the maneuver trampled a core tenet of american tax policy by conferring enormous tax benefits to mr trump for losing vast amounts of other peoples money in this case money investors and banks had entrusted to him to build a casino empire in atlantic city
the reason that trump bent over backward and potentially broke laws to avoid paying these taxes is because he was scrambling to stave off financial ruin
this is the same man who claims he would be a great president because of his successful business background
yet he calls himself the king of debt his businesses have declared bankruptcy six times he has spent decades paying zero dollars in federal income taxes he lost a billion dollars in a single year running a casino business reporting out tonight even suggests that he has direct financial ties to russia
all of this is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to his business background
even as all of this information is out there american voters still know very little about donald trumps finances because he has refused to be transparent about them
and consider this what trump is hiding in his tax returns must be much worse than the already damning information that keeps coming out through good reporting if it werent he would have already released them

republicans are being ordered to explain their comments that they will be monitoring the polls for voter fraud
the united states district court in new jersey ordered discovery on donald trump and the rncs poll monitoring efforts with a hearing on november th just days before the november th election
the order demands affidavits from several parties including from someone with personal knowledge about the defendants rncs efforts with the trump campaign to monitor precincts around the country as indicated by kellyanne conway
affidavits are also demanded from several republican operatives in various states who are said to be conducting state wide voter fraud monitoring and poll monitoring such as rnc member rob gleasons efforts to recruit persons to act as poll watchers in philadelphia pennsylvania and rnc member ronna romney mcdaniels efforts in michigan to prepare a massive statewide antivoter fraud effort
the rnc must also answer for governor mike pences comments that the trump campaign is working with state governments and secretaries of state to ensure ballot integrity
this is what happens when you have zero regard for election law and try to go vigilante
rick hasen at election law blog noted that the discovery granted is pretty broad pretty broad discovery required in short order with hearing on november
however the judge rejected much of the discovery sought by the dnc given the time frame but this should alone should be pretty educational on what efforts are actually going on behind the scenes
the dnc filed a lawsuit against the republican national committee for violating a court order intended to prevent voter intimidation over donald trumps claims that the election is rigged and that his supporters need to go to the polls to intimidate voters
donald trumps urging that his supporters go to polling places other than their own often in urban areas to watch voters is a clear violation of the consent decree and the court isnt likely to stand for it
so now discovery has been courtordered which is just more bad news for republicans who are already facing an uphill battle in their bid for the white house
its exceptionally unpatriotic to try to intimidate fellow citizens from exercising their right to vote everyone has the right to vote free of intimidation dont let anyone dissuade you from voting

Jason Easley | 2016-10-28T22:03:41.265+03:00 | trump wrecks any hope gop had of taking advantage of clinton email investigation | by hrafnkell haraldsson on tue nov st at am last springnew york had to take legal action to collect in unpaid taxes on the trumpowned company that owns the trademark boeing
we looked yesterday at kurt eichenwalds revelation that donald trump put off investigators for six months while busily destroying emails that is hardly trumps only misdeed but how many people realize that donald trump at this moment has seventyfive legal issues hanging over his head
hes lying to times a day and has his followers and with much less excuse the mainstream media thoroughly distracted by the clinton email nonstory so he can divert their attention away from his own legally questionable activities
usa today reported at the end of october that just two weeks before election day at least of the plus lawsuits involving trump and his businesses remain open according to an ongoing nationwide analysis of state and federal court records by usa today
it will surprise no one because trump is already deadbeating on his own pollster that one trump case over nonpayment of tips to caterers at trump soho hotel in new york city is scheduled to go to trial a week before election day
if one thing has become clear throughout this election it is that trump does not pay his bills earlier we had covered an incident where he had declined to finish paying a florida contractor for work it did on one of his resorts having decided that the contractor had been paid enough even though it wasnt the agreedupon amount trump got nailed by the court for k in attorneys fees in that case
just a few examples from usa todays investigation
trump faces significant open litigation tied to his businesses angry members at his jupiter fla golf course say they were cheated out of refunds on their dues and a former employee at the same club claims she was fired after reporting sexual harassment theres a fraud case brought by trump university students who say the moguls company ripped them off for tens of thousands in tuition for a sham real estate course trump is also defending lawsuits tied to his campaign a disgruntled gop political consultant sued for million saying trump defamed her another suit a class action says the campaign violated consumer protection laws by sending unsolicited text messages
as pointed out by usa todays nick penzenstadler and john kelly these lawsuits will dog trump into the white house should he win he will have no immunity because he is president and america and the world will be treated to the spectacle of the president of the united states having to make trip after trip to the court to settle his highly questionable personal and business affairs
there are harassment cases sex discrimination lawsuits fraud unpaid bills racist comments defamation cases involving trump university as usa today notes as recently as last springnew york had to take legal action to collect in unpaid taxes on the trumpowned company that owns the trademark boeing that jetted the mogul to campaign rallies across the country
and those cases will likely grow
trump has promised after all to sue the new york times and each of the women nymag maintains an exhaustive list who have accused him of sexual assault
usa today says it spent six months researching court records the exclusive analysis they say found an unprecedented mountain of legal battles for a presidential candidate ranging from skirmishes with pageant contestants to multimillion dollar real estate lawsuits the cases offer clues to the leadership style the billionaire would bring to the white house

Jason Easley | 2016-10-28T22:49:01.981+03:00 | gop scandal falls apart as new emails didnt come from hillary clintons server | by rmuse am the voter suppression tactic is right out of the gop election rigging playbook to suppress the black vote in north carolina the following is an opinion column by r muse
some americans are likely aware of the psychological term projecting that roughly means a person attributes their own faults and actions onto someone else as an unconscious form of transferring guilt for ones own actions as soon as the republican primaries concluded donald trump projected republicans guilt for election rigging either through vote obstruction or suppression onto democrats and his opponent hillary clinton republicans have been actively suppressing votes since the election of barack obama in and they have only ramped up their election rigging activities over the past eight years and yet trump accuses democrats of election rigging as frequently as most human beings draw breath
yesterday the north carolina conference of the national association for the advancement of colored people naacp filed a lawsuit against north carolina republicans and demanded they put an immediate stop to the coordinated effort to suppress the black vote in the state what the naacp rightly said was that the voter suppression tactic was right out of the gop election rigging playbook to suppress the black vote in the state
the election rigging amounts to three counties in north carolina canceling voter registration of thousands of mostly african american democratic residents a week before the presidential election the lawsuit charged election officials in beaufort moore and cumberland counties of denying primarily african american voters eligibility to participate in democracy because their voter registration documents mysteriously were bounced back as undeliverable
most of the voters whose eligibility to vote was denied and flagged for purging such as james edward arthur sr had moved within the same county and were still legally allowed to cast ballots many of the purged voters lived at their original registration address and were victims of a simple postal service error
mr arthur is an african american who lives in a nursing home and has voted in at least the last elections in the same county he was born and raised in without issue arthur testified that he like thousands of other african american democratic voters never received any state or county election documents informing him that his eligibility was denied or that if he didnt attend an appeal hearing to maintain his right to vote he would be denied the right to participate in democracy mr arthur said
if i knew my right to vote was in jeopardy i would do whatever i could to protect it i want and plan to vote in the upcoming election but i am concerned that since my registration has been canceled i will not be able to cast a ballot or it will not be counted
it is what any sane human being would consider election rigging simply because the tricounty ploy targeted primarily african americans who typically vote for democrats it is also something north carolina republicans have been guilty of for the past six years
according to the naacp lawsuit north carolina republicans are in violation of the national voter registration act which bans the systemic removal of voters from the rolls in the final days before an election republican election officials state officials defended their election rigging and said they were justified in purging tensofthousands of mainly african american democratic voters eligibility the definition of systemic on an individual basis
however the naacp also accused republicans of conducting a coordinated mailing campaign for the sole purpose of challenging the eligibility of thousands of mainly african american voters eligibility who did not receive the mailing one republican who ran for a local office last year shane hubers challenged the registration of voters?the majority who are them democrats ?in beaufort county
in one of the other counties charged in the lawsuit cumberland county one individual used returned mail to challenge the registrations of mostly democratic voters in moore county the secretary of the local republican party n carol wheeldon challenged approximately mainly african american registered voters likely because they do not vote for republicans
the lead attorney for the naacps lawsuit penda hair said that although she cannot yet prove there is a concerted republican election rigging conspiracy
we know that in two of the counties the people who brought the challenges had connections to the local republican party we also know that the pattern of these challenges is very similar across the counties ms hair also noted that in moore county the return address of a rightwing group called the voter integrity project appeared on the mail that was used to challenge voters this is a very pernicious treatment of voters she said it is also a deliberate act of election rigging by republicans
the president of the north carolina naacp reverend dr william barber said
we are seeing the worst attempts of voter suppression here in north carolina that weve seen since the days of jim crow the tar heel state is ground zero in the intentional surgical efforts to suppress the voice of voters these attempts are a direct affront to our constitution
the naacp lawsuit is demanding the state reinstate all voters challenged since using this election rigging process back on the rolls immediately the organization also demands that the state notifies the voters that they have been reinstated as eligible voters and allow them to cast regular ballots early or on election day they have already put in a request for an emergency hearing this week to decide the case
it might be the case that the naacps request for a hearing may be granted especially in light of these new charges arising just days after a federal court ruled that north carolina republicans violated the national voter registration act in yet another manner failing to add tens of thousands of voters to the rolls who registered at a dmv office over the past few years
last thursday us district court judge loretta biggs ordered north carolina republicans to permit those tensofthousands of voters to cast provisional ballots it is highly doubtful that north carolina republicans will obey the federal judges orders because they have been the recipients of several court orders over their election rigging actions that have had no effect whatsoever or the republicans would not continue disenfranchising voters
republicans have been on a tear to rig elections since the american people first elected barack obama as president and the conservatives on the supreme court are ultimately guilty of conspiring with republicans to suppress or obstruct the voting rights of primarily people of color because they dont support republicans to be perfectly clear it is irrelevant if it is called voter suppression obstruction or disenfranchisement it is a deliberate attempt to rig elections and it is only republicans and the koch brothers outfit the american legislative exchange council alec who are behind each and every attempt in republicancontrolled states to kill democracy by doing what the republican party standard bearer donald trump is guilty of projecting rig elections | english | politicususa.com | http://15130-presscdn-0-89.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/black-Trump-suppoter-kicked-out.png | bias | Real | hillary clinton laughs asked new emails could sink campaign | major omen potential election disaster republicans donald trump scored lowest rating history gallups presidential leadership poll gallup released presidential leadership survey results historically bad donald trump voters rate trump worse presidential candidate gallups records personality leadership qualities president previous readings taken late october campaigns years registered voters said two majorparty candidates right personality leadership qualities sharp contrast trumps current clintons rating one percentage point previous low score clintons score low one point range previous presidential cycles going back trumps score twenty percent lowest score history poll voters arent going elect man next president view lacking basic qualities presidential leadership popular vote total may reflect nations political polarization reason electoral map projections continue look good democratic candidate donald trump failed elemental test presidential candidate doesnt look act behave like person qualities needed occupy oval office lead united states america last week election day tension air normal fundamental motivating factors contest havent changed democrats holding electoral map advantage donald trump become central issue question ballot republicans look heading major ballot box disaster voters believe donald trump fit president | 1 |
Sarah Jones | 2016-10-29T03:41:06.368+03:00 | donald trump calls a black supporter a paid thug and kicks him out of his rally | by hrafnkell haraldsson am the kkk newspaper features the front page full page story make america great again with a big featured center photo of donald trump
rachel maddow traces the history of the postcivil war enforcement acts signed by president ulysses s grant including the ku klux klan act or the enforcement act of stat which still makes it illegal to conspire to intimidate voters
to show that the klan act is not vestigial but very much relevant in this election maddow points to the citation of this law by the democrat party in a whole raft of lawsuits in nevada arizona pennsylvania and ohio alleging voter intimidation
maddow points out that though voter intimidation is illegal anyway the significance of the klan act is that it prohibits conspiracy to prevent by force intimidation or threat any citizen who is lawfully entitled to vote from giving his support or advocacy in a legal manner toward or in favor of the election of any lawfully qualified person as an elector for president or vice president or as a member of congress of the united states
as an example of the role the kkk plays in trumps campaign maddow produced the kkks newspaper of today which bills itself as the political voice of white christian america which you might note is identical with fox news demographic this paper she says has been turning up on front lawns in the great state of georgia
watch courtesy of msnbc discussion begins at mark
tonight we just got a hold of this disgusting development this is the newspaper of the ku klux klan today its the crusader the political voice of white christian america the premier voice of white resistance theyve got you see the white power symbol there in the upper righthand corner theyve got a whole media operation going on apparently watch white pride tv listen to kkk radio hours a day this newsletter is about pages long features articles on the threat of nonwhite immigration a very subtle feature on black people committing terrible crimes against white people theres an article by the founder of the america first party which is all about the terrorist jews he brags in his byline that hes the man who david duke credits for awakening him to the threat of jewish supremacism its exactly what you would think from the ku klux klan newspaper if you knew there was a ku klux klan newspaper these days but the front page full page story is make america great again with a big featured center photo of donald trump its one of several articles in the paper about trump including this inset article about how trumps candidacy is moving the dialogue forward those are a couple of the many many robocalls that were made during the republican primary campaign on behalf of donald trumps candidacy calls made by a white nationalist group that calls itself the american national super pac the trump campaign doesnt appear to have anything to do with these calls they reportedly returned a donation from the white nationalist guy who you hear on the call when it was first reported that he was making these calls and that he was a trump donor it was further embarrassing to the trump campaign when this guy this farmer and white nationalist who does these robocalls he was initially picked to be a trump delegate to the republican convention this year before his delegate status once got yanked once it was widely reported
donald trumps white supremacist followers have made no secret of the fact that they want a white homeland and that of necessity the united states must be this white homeland as maddow has pointed out in the past and by their own admission their eugenics insanity is now out in the open because of donald trump
dont believe maddow demographics pro looked at donald trump twitter supporters and found that more than one third follow white nationalist twitter accounts
the fact is trump has mainstreamed white supremacy and by not strongly denouncing it brought it into his own movement which seems to be a meeting place for much more than disaffected white workingclass americans whatever the mainstream media tells you

Sarah Jones | 2016-10-29T03:41:08.721+03:00 | hillary clinton laughs when asked if the new emails could sink her campaign | in a major omen of potential election disaster for republicans donald trump has scored the lowest rating in the history of gallups presidential leadership poll
gallup released their presidential leadership survey and the results were historically bad for donald trump
voters rate trump worse than any other presidential candidate in gallups records on having the personality and leadership qualities a president should have previous readings were taken in late october in the and campaigns in those years between and of registered voters said the two majorparty candidates had the right personality and leadership qualities a sharp contrast to trumps current clintons rating of is one percentage point below the previous low score
clintons score while low was one point of the range for previous presidential cycles going back to trumps score was twenty percent below the lowest score in the history of the poll
voters arent going to elect a man to be the next president who they view as lacking the basic qualities of presidential leadership the popular vote total in may reflect the nations political polarization but there is a reason why electoral map projections continue to look very good for the democratic candidate
donald trump has failed the most elemental test for any presidential candidate he doesnt look act or behave like a person who has the qualities needed to occupy the oval office and lead the united states of america
the last week before election day tension that is in the air is normal but the fundamental motivating factors of this contest havent changed democrats are holding on to their electoral map advantage while donald trump has become the central issue and question on the ballot

Jason Easley | 2016-10-29T03:41:08.886+03:00 | the real reason why the clinton email scandal is back has nothing to do with helping trump | by sarah jones on tue nov st at am a veteran spy is alleging that russia is cultivating supporting and assisting donald trump and has been for at least five years the spy said the response from the fbi was shock and horror share on twitter print this post
a veteran spy is alleging that russia is cultivating supporting and assisting donald trump and has been for at least five years the spy said the response from the fbi was shock and horror
the report alleges that trump and his inner circle have accepted a regular flow of intelligence from the kremlin and that russian intelligence claims to have compromised trump on his visits and could blackmail him
david corn at mother jones reported
mother jones has reviewed that report and other memos this former spy wrote the first memo based on the former intelligence officers conversations with russian sources noted russian regime has been cultivating supporting and assisting trump for at least years aim endorsed by putin has been to encourage splits and divisions in western alliance it maintained that trump and his inner circle have accepted a regular flow of intelligence from the kremlin including on his democratic and other political rivals it claimed that russian intelligence had compromised trump during his visits to moscow and could blackmail him it also reported that russian intelligence had compiled a dossier on hillary clinton based on bugged conversations she had on various visits to russia and intercepted phone calls
the former intelligence officer says the response from the fbi was shock and horror the fbi after receiving the first memo did not immediately request additional material according to the former intelligence officer and his american associates yet in august they say the fbi asked him for all information in his possession and for him to explain how the material had been gathered and to identify his sources the former spy forwarded to the bureau several memossome of which referred to members of trumps inner circle after that point he continued to share information with the fbi its quite clear there was or is a pretty substantial inquiry going on he says
in august corn reports the fbi asked the spy for all information related to his findings and he continued to share information with the fbi which he says made it clear there was a pretty substantial inquiry going on
if this report is accurate the spys information confirms what senator harry reid says intelligence experts and fbi director james comey already shared with him regarding explosive information regarding ties and coordination between donald trump and russia
this report also rings true given report about the trump server repeatedly being connected to russia including trumps server possibly communicating with a russian bank
it also makes sense given the many ties to russia within trumps own campaign and indeed trumps own rhetoric regarding nato and russia trump changed the republican party platforms proukraine proposals and talked about weakening nato both of which mirrored putins wish list nbc reported monday evening that the fbi is in the preliminary stages of investigating trumps excampaign managers connection to russia
donald trump has already been busted for reading russian propaganda at his rallies as newsweeks kurt eichenwald uncovered an instance of trump reading propaganda directly from putin at a rally in pennsylvania
eichenwald pointed out something vital and that is that the russians have been hacking into american emails and then falsifying them in hopes of impacting the presidential election the russians have been obtaining american emails and now are presenting complete misrepresentations of themfalsifying themin hopes of setting off a cascade of events that might change the outcome of the presidential election the big question of course is why are the russians working so hard to damage clinton and in the process aid donald trump
the answer to why putin is trying so hard to defeat clinton might be in multiple reports that he fears her unlike donald trump hillary clinton is no pushover according to former us officials putin sees clinton as a forceful proponent of regime change policies that the russian leader considers a grave threat to his own survival
trump has been acting like someone already groomed by the kremlin hes been a willing puppet for their dangerous goal of destroying western democracy he is easily flattered and easily manipulated its also easy to see how they could have gotten something on him with which to blackmail him see the billy bush bus tape of trump bragging about sexual assault trump is easy bait
the fact that the fbi director felt compelled to announce something about hillarys emails that turned out to not be about her emails but about her aides emails and even then he wasnt sure what they said or even if they were duplicates but he chose to keep this explosive information about donald trumps ties to russia under wraps is very disturbing
this isnt a matter of partisan disagreement about the rules the fbi follows about ongoing investigations this is a matter of national security at this point if all of these reports from different sources are accurate but the fact that they come from different sources and that trump willingly staffed his own campaign with russian ties and he is advocating for their dream positions and he reads their propaganda straight from the vault so to speak these facts add up to what looks like a terrifying fire of epic proportions | english | politicususa.com | http://15130-presscdn-0-89.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/2016-07-07T163623Z_1_LYNXNPEC6616G_RTROPTP_4_USA-ELECTION-CLINTON-COMEY.jpg | bias | Real | trump supporter jailed trying rig election committing voter fraud | letter james comey hillary clinton email scandal motivated democrats clinton campaign says raised million online last hours lisa lerer ap reported clinton campaign says theyve raised online last hrs since clinton became nominee convention lisa lerer llerer november comey letter supposed boost trump depress democratic turnout opposite appears happening james comeys interference presidential election motivated clinton supporters work harder give money get polls republicans wanted democrats seen comeys letter republican spin october surprise failed instead made hillary clinton even stronger giving campaign resources use close presidential election political tactic comey letter harming republicans republicans thrown everything think hillary clinton nothing stopped hillary clinton supporters continue grow stronger donald trump marching back reality television star clist celebrity obscurity | 1 |
Jason Easley | 2016-10-29T03:41:10.067+03:00 | doj complaint filed against fbi director james comey for interfering in presidential election | by sarah jones on tue nov st at pm comey struggled with not wanting to appear biased as the fbi investigated russian interference with the us presidential election and so he told the obama administration not to accuse russia of the dnc hackings lest they be seen as partisan share on twitter print this post
russia did hack the democrats so all of that email information that the media has been reporting came from a foreign entity that seeks to alter the outcome of the us election
but fbi director james comey struggled with not wanting to appear biased as the fbi investigated russian interference with the us presidential election and so he told the obama administration not to accuse russia of the dnc hackings lest they be seen as partisan
republican fbi director james comey advised the obama administration not to publicly accuse russia of hacking the dnc and more on the grounds that it would make the administration appear unduly partisan too close to the nov election officials familiar with the deliberations told the washington post
these sources with knowledge of the internal discussions spoke to the post on the condition of anonymity
there are a few reasons why comey might want to keep his agencys investigation of russian interference under the radar but given his choice to publicly suggest that his agency might be reopening its exhaustive investigation of clintons emails which resulted from a republicanled bogus overreaching and seemingly endless benghazi investigation that also cleared clinton it seems odd that comey was going to stay silent on the russia matter
comeys decisions is especially odd given the reports that the russians have been communicating and coordinating with republican presidential nominee donald trump to the point that he is already compromised
only one of these matters might allow a foreign power control over the united states president
the same sources tell the post that comey made the decision to reveal the clinton emails to congress because he had already testified in that matter and said the investigation was closed which suggests that he was concerned with his own reputation
not sure im buying that because if comey really only cared about his own reputation ahead of not appearing partisan he wouldnt have said anything at all but that doesnt mean that his motives were nefarious
there might well be good reason for this after all this is the fbi and they cant tell us everything but as of right now comey has mishandled this and appears to be trying to influence an election to help republicans just because he is a republican and just because he has donated to republicans doesnt mean he isnt doing his job properly

of nations top economists have come together to urge the american people not to elect donald trump to be the next president of the united states
in the letter the economists listed a dozen economic policy reasons why voters should not vote for trump but it as their conclusion that was stunning he promotes magical thinking and conspiracy theories over sober assessments of feasible economic policy optionsdonald trump is a dangerous destructive choice for the country he misinforms the electorate degrades trust in public institutions with conspiracy theories and promotes willful delusion over engagement with reality if elected he poses a unique danger to the functioning of democratic and economic institutions and to the prosperity of the country for these reasons we strongly recommend that you do not vote for donald trump
trumps thoughts on the economy are dangerous to the prosperity of the country it isnt just that trump is a person of bad character who lacks any of the human traits that voters should seek in a president it is also that his policies are nonsense
economists dont write these types of letters ever the economists arent discussing partisan politics they view trump and his ideas as a threat to the american economy

Hrafnkell Haraldsson | 2016-10-29T16:02:00.803+03:00 | fox news calls for special prosecutor to investigate hillary clinton | by hrafnkell haraldsson pm were not conceding were behind in our enthusiasm we have closed the gapdramatically over the last week
donald trumps deputy campaign manager the clintonobsessed republican operative david bossie told abc news george stephanopoulos this morning that theres an enthusiasm gap and that this bit of math republicans do is trumps path to victory on november
this is how the conversation went per cbs news sopan deb as always highlighting the important bits
stephanopoulos was not about to let bossie get away with the claim about trumps tax returns and hammered him on the issue hes going to release his tax return when he is not under audit david bossie trump deputy campaign manager httpstcoyxvgrjix
good morning america gma november
bossie deflected like a pro you can see why trump hired him
as a corollary to bossies claims trump suddenly found himself interested in polls again this morning tweeting wow now leading in abc washingtonpost poll to gone up points in two weeks mostly before the crooked hillary blowup
donald j trump realdonaldtrump november
the trump campaign has always been about making much out of nothing elections are not rigged if trump gets his way and neither are polls if trump is leading otherwise its all leftwing shenanigans
however even newt gingrich isnt buying the new poll washington postabc poll is an absurdity trump has not moved up points in the last dayshe was never points behind ignore polls
newt gingrich newtgingrich november
and what trump fails to mention is that his lead disappears if johnson and stein are taken out of the mix then clinton leads by
these latest claims are an absolute sham as clinton leads overwhelmingly in early voting and comeys email gambit seems to have failed to sway voters to trumps camp
meanwhile trumps own legal problems are beginning to overwhelm the narrative and if there is any evidence of a clinton enthusiasm gap it exists only in bossies own head
david bossie is living proof that clintons vast rightwing conspiracy is real and all the hating on hillary isnt going to change the fact that it is trump who is the crooked candidate not hillary clinton | english | politicususa.com | http://15130-presscdn-0-89.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Hillary_Clinton_23705602384.jpg | bias | Real | comey letter backfires email scandal revival energizes hillary clinton supporters | jason easley tue nov st pm republicans far removed reality sean hannity spread fake news story radio show nobody noticed difference share twitter print post republicans far removed reality sean hannity spread fake news story radio show nobody noticed difference cnn reported progression events illustrates fake news stories expand spread fringe web sites nationally syndicated radio shows millions listeners case fake news originated dubious site called news wire publishes mix true slanted madeup news like game telephone time story got hannity even fake facts wrong rightwing websites spread story turned tall tale added new details stop fake news eventually reached gateway pundit sean hannitys radio show spreading fake news millions listeners hannity downplayed responsibility get facts right bottom line brought insignificant way dealing important issues like hrc crimes lies cnn colluding clinton campaign cheating bernie sanders hannity busy dealing real fake issues like hillary clintons crimes election stolen donald trump hannity put fake story air perfect example rightwing media echo chamber works nobody level bothered check facts republican party belief replaced fact conservative media knows audience wants confirmation beliefs provide doesnt matter confirmation true matters audience wants true sean hannity pushing fake news doesnt care disconnect republicans rest country republican voters living fantasy land donald trump able exploit ride whole way republican nomination conservative media bubble alive well things get lot worse republicans begin get better | 1 |

the more things change the more they stay the same the house freedom caucus is planning a secret meeting which in typical republican fashion was leaked to the press to discuss ousting paul ryan and demanding more ransom from gop leadership
politico reported one of the most pressing questions preoccupying washington is what the group will do about paul ryan the wisconsin republican has said he intends to seek another term as house speaker but has rankled members of the group of several dozen republican lawmakers that drove john boehner out of the speakership last year the freedom caucus is also weighing proposals meant to empower its members some at the expense of gop leaderships authority
there have been early rumblings that speaker ryan may be open to making a few deals on policies like tax reform with hillary clinton if she wins the election one of the reasons why these deals may never happen is because of the ability of far right republicans to cause trouble
if ryans republican majority shrinks he will be an even bigger hostage to the farright wing of his caucus the dysfunctional dynamic in the house is going to continue even if hillary clinton wins the election ryan has run into the same hurdles that john boehner faced house republicans are deeply divided and unable to agree on much of anything
the fact that the freedom caucus is holding a secret meeting is a sign that nothing is going to change if paul ryan doesnt cave to their demands they will force ryan out of the speaker position
a group of house republicans is plotting new ways to keep the house from working properly before a new president has even been elected

republicans are so far removed from reality that sean hannity spread a fake news story on his radio show and nobody noticed the difference
cnn reported the progression of events illustrates how fake news stories expand and spread from fringe web sites to nationally syndicated radio shows with millions of listeners in this case the fake news originated on a dubious site called your news wire which publishes a mix of true slanted and madeup news then like a game of telephone by the time the story got to hannity even the fake facts were wrong
some rightwing websites spread the story which turned into a tall tale that added new details at each stop the fake news eventually reached the gateway pundit and to sean hannitys radio show
after spreading the fake news to millions of listeners hannity downplayed his responsibility to get the facts right bottom line it was brought up in an insignificant way i was dealing with more important issues like hrc crimes and lies and how cnn has been colluding with the clinton campaign and cheating bernie sanders
hannity was busy dealing with real fake issues like hillary clintons crimes and how the election is being stolen from donald trump
how hannity put a fake story on the air is a perfect example of how the rightwing media echo chamber works nobody at any level bothered to check the facts because in the republican party belief has replaced fact conservative media knows that their audience wants confirmation of their beliefs so that is what they provide
it doesnt matter if the confirmation is true what matters is that the audience wants it to be true
sean hannity is pushing fake news and he doesnt care
this is why there is such a disconnect between republicans and the rest of the country republican voters are living in a fantasy land that donald trump was able to exploit and ride the whole way to the republican nomination

the republican nominee begged clinton voters to change their vote in states where its not too late to do so trump wrote wednesday morning so now that you can see hillary was a big mistake change your vote to make american great again you can change your vote in six states so now that you see that hillary was a big mistake change your vote to make america great again
donald j trump realdonaldtrump november
tuesday evening trump made the case that due to the fbis announcement about clintons emails voters might have buyers remorse a lot of things have happened over the last few days this is a message for any democratic voters who have already cast their ballots for hillary clinton and are having a bad case of buyers remorse in other words you want to change your vote wisconsin is one of several states where you can change your early ballot if you think youve made a mistake
while its true that people in some states can change their votes its not true that this rule was changed because of hillary clintons emails and yes thats a new right wing thing apparently trump doesnt suggest the law was changed because of clinton but he seems to think people will be rushing to change their mind about clinton because of the nonsurprise october surprise the republican fbi director delivered which was perceived to have benefited the trump ticket
days ago snopes debunked the notion that changing early votes is being allowed because of the fbis bizarre announcement that they may or may not have more emails pertaining to clinton
claim after fbi director jim comey announced that he was reviewing emails potentially linked to hillary clinton several states announced that they were allowing people to change their early votes mixture
whats true some states allow early voters to change their votes before election day
whats false no states changed their election laws in order to allow people who voted early for hillary clinton to change their votes
and to make this even better that false information was based on a fox news report that wasnt selling the false story about clinton but still got some of the information wrong this is why the right cant have nice things the left should be vigilant against allowing itself to become too insular because epistemic closure leads to losing
trump conveniently ignores his own history of email dumping exhaustive list of lawsuits bragging about sexual assault dissing minorities and a gold star family and national security experts investigating his ties and his campaigns ties to russia
only a desperate candidate runs on trying to get people to change their votes to him because someone found a clinton aides emails when they dont even know what they say or if they are duplicates yet

speaking at reverend samuel delevoe memorial park in fort lauderdale tuesday night hillary clinton was interrupted by a donald trump supporter who shouted bill clinton is a rapist he was no doubt working for the reward offered by infowars but clinton was having none of it rather than ignoring the man she issued a stern rebuke stabbing her finger at the man she said
you know i am sick and tired of the negative dark divisive dangerous vision and behavior from people who support donald trump
the man continued to shout waving his sign and the crowd countered with cries of hillary hillary as she said
it is time for us to say no we are not going backwards were going forward into a brighter future
the protester was escorted out by security and clinton told the man and everyone like him you may be angry about something but anger is not a plan dont be used dont be exploited
see the protesters antics here note that he was neither roughed up nor attacked by clinton supporters
sadly all too many angry white christians are allowing themselves to be exploited by donald trump who represents the very forces that have deprived them of the american dream a man whom as clinton says has taken everything and given nothing
last night in florida hillary clinton was taking nothing and giving everything

a us congressman has warned that american troops could be prosecuted for providing military support to the saudi war on yemen
ted lieu made the warning in a letter to us secretary of state john kerry and defense secretary ashton carter saying the us governments denial of target selection for saudi airstrikes in yemen does not excuse washington from legal responsibilities
i find it deeply troubling that the us apparently has no advanced knowledge of what targets will be struck by jets that are refueled by us personnel with us tankers lieu said in his letter
the us would appear to be violating loac laws of armed conflict and international standards by engaging in such direct military operations if us personnel are not aware if targets are civilian or military if the loss of life and property are disproportional or if the operation is even militarily necessary he noted a yemeni boy walks past a mural depicting a us drone and reading why did you kill my family photo by afp
pointing to the month involvement of the us in saudi war on the yemeni people the democratic congressman stressed that washington had knowledge of a bombardment campaign hitting civilian targets including schools and hospitals multiple times
us personnel are now at legal risk of being investigated and potentially prosecuted for committing war crimes under international law a person can be found guilty of aiding and abetting war crimes under us law a person can be found guilty for conspiring to commit war crimes lieu wrote
the pentagon has been providing logistic and surveillance support to saudi arabia in its military aggression against yemen the kingdoms impoverished southern neighbor which has killed more than yemenis since its onset in march

Reuters | 2016-10-30T02:03:36.775+02:00 | clinton campaign urges fbi to detail new developments in email case | interviews the fbi probe was inevitable because of the metastasizing of the links and the connections that the clinton foundation had most specifically and grievously to saudi arabia to qatar says american analyst scott bennett
the ongoing federal investigation into the clinton foundation was expected because of the clinton familys ties with us enemies says scott bennett a former us army psychological warfare officer
the fbi has been probing possible paytoplay schemes at the family foundation for over a year now and is likely to press charges against it fox news reported wednesday citing informed officials
bennett told press tv on friday that the probe was inevitable because of the metastasizing of the links and the connections that the clinton foundation had most specifically and grievously to saudi arabia to qatar and many other countries blacklisted by washington
it was revealed on friday that the clinton foundation took a million gift from qatar during hillary clintons tenure as the us secretary of state without her informing the state department
hillary decided to not inform the department of the transaction despite signing an ethics agreement with regards to the foundation when she became secretary of state
according to the foundations website qatar has so far given the clintons a total of between million and million over the years
aside from qatar saudi arabia has also been one of the clinton foundations biggest donors it became known in that the kingdom had given them between million and million
so those terrorist entities which have been labeled as the enemies of the united states have been appearing as clinton foundation donors bennett said
that is a serious crime it is treason it is corruption it is bribery of officials said the analyst
bennett argued that all the leaks and investigations concerning the clinton family were coming from those personnel in the american government who have had enough
they have stepped up they have released emails they have hacked into their own computers and in some cases they have provided it to wikileaks he added
whistleblowing website wikileaks has released thousands of hillarys campaign chairman and top aide john podestas emails since last month exposing some of the wellkept secrets surrounding the clinton family and hillary clintons bid for the white house

former us democratic presidential candidate bernie sanders has threatened presidentelect donald trump warning that his camp will be trumps worst nightmare if he goes after minorities in america
if donald trump takes peoples anger and turns it against muslims hispanics african americans and women we will be his worst nightmare the vermont senator wrote on his twitter page on thursday
the yearold senator had earlier issued a statement after the new york businessmans victory in the us election on november promising to work with him on certain issues but also to oppose him should he pursue divisive and discriminatory policies
to the degree that mr trump is serious about pursuing policies that improve the lives of working families in this country i and other progressives are prepared to work with him sanders said
to the degree that he pursues racist sexist xenophobic and antienvironment policies we will vigorously oppose him he added
during the primaries sanders ran a close race with clinton and promised to continue the fight all the way until the democratic national convention in june where the partys nominee was going to be named
towards the end of the race however sanders changed his tone and bowed out in favor of clinton he also appeared next to her during the dnc and supported his party opponent in the democratic campaigns
on july sanders formally endorsed clinton after facing mounting pressure from major democratic figures including outgoing us president barack obama himself us republican presidentelect donald trump delivers his acceptance speech during his election night event at the new york hilton midtown in the early morning hours of november in new york city photo by afp
on tuesday trump stunned the world by defeating heavily favored clinton in the presidential election sending the united states on a new uncertain path
trump rode a wave of anger toward the elite us establishment to win the white house race against clinton a longtime washington insider
the new york businessman garnered electoral votes in the us election while his rival and the former secretary of state received votes despite winning the popular vote
thousands of people since then have rallied in cities across the us to protest against trumps presidential election victory condemning his controversial campaign rhetoric against muslims immigrants women and other groups
this is while trump said in his victory speech he would be president for all americans it is time for us to come together as one united people he said
the real estate moguls election campaign had been marred by his disparaging remarks against minorities in the us his comments include a call to ban all muslims from coming to america as well as stopping mexican migrants by building a long wall along the usmexico border
he has also sought for a database to track muslims across the united states and said that the us would have absolutely no choice but to close down mosques

hillary clintons top advisers blame fbi director james comey for the democrats bruising loss to presidentelect donald trump
navin nayak the head of the clinton campaigns opinion research division sent an email to senior staffers thursday outlining early signals as to why the candidate lost the november presidential election politico reported on friday
we believe that we lost this election in the last week said nayaks email which was published by politico comeys letter in the last days of the election both helped depress our turnout and also drove away some of our critical support among collegeeducated white voters particularly in the suburbs
we also think comeys nd letter which was intended to absolve sec clinton actually helped to bolster trumps turnout he continued
the letter also highlighted several other challenges the clinton team faced throughout the campaign including a desire for change after two terms by a democratic president and the reluctance of some americans to vote for a female candidate hillary clinton makes a concession speech after being defeated by donald trump in new york on november photo by afp
despite those challenges nayak said clinton was on course to win until the last week when everything changed and the momentum began to shift in favor of trump
voters who decided in the last week broke for trump by a larger margin these numbers were even more exaggerated in the key battleground states he said
the fbi director angered democrats late in october by announcing in a letter to congress that the agency had uncovered new emails connected to the clinton email investigation
just over a week later comey notified congress that clinton would not face charges over the newly discovered messages
nayak said comeys letters encouraged trump supporters and depressed the turnout for clinton on election day
there is no question that a week from election day sec clinton was poised for a historic win in the end less than k votes out of tens of millions cast on election day made the difference in this race he wrote
in the end nayak concluded late breaking developments in the race proved one hurdle too many for us to overcome

the american people have repudiated the foreign policy of president barack obama and former secretary of state hillary clinton which was a complete disgrace for the united states according to james fetzer an american scholar and political analyst
professor fetzer made the remarks in a phone interview with press tv on monday days after republican presidential nominee donald trump stunned the world by defeating the heavilyfavored democratic candidate hillary clinton in the november election
during the election campaign trump repeatedly expressed his willingness to work with russian president vladimir putin and other leaders in order to resolve global problems including the issue of daesh terrorism which he has blamed on the policies of the obama administration
on the other hand clinton has shown eagerness to confront russia and continue the interventionist policies us administrations have practiced since
professor fetzer said that clinton was behind the massacre of libya the butchery of benghazi the transfer of weapons to rebels in syria
more than five years after the overthrow of muammar gaddafi libya has become a failed state with the central government holding no sway over the country and africas wealthiest nation has become a haven for terrorist organizations
and since the united states and its allies have been sponsoring terrorists wreaking havoc in syria
professor fetzer stated that clinton was being advised by israeli intelligence telling her how to conduct american foreign policy it was a complete disgrace
the american people have repudiated the foreign policy of barack obama and hillary clinton the scholar said
donald trump is going to restore a measure of sanity he is going to end the wars in the middle east he is going to restore the reputation of the united states for integrity and dealing with the international community he noted
he respects russia as should any president of the united states where barack obama and hillary clinton fell miserably short the analyst pointed out
i believe we are already seeing signs that the situation for the world community is going to vastly dramatically improve that the united states is going to conduct itself in accordance with international law and restrain from regime change and hopefully we will no longer be the greatest aggressor nation in the world fetzer said in his concluding remarks loading | english | politicususa.com | http://15130-presscdn-0-89.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Harry_Reid-big-fist.jpg | bias | Real | october shocker fbi explosive information trump conspiring putin | politics vintage cars parked forecourt buckingham palace london part display historic britishbuilt motor vehicles commemorate queen elizabeth iis th birthday photo afp thousands britons signed petition express outrage queen elizabeths use million taxpayers money repair buckingham palace people signed petition sunday two days government prime minister theresa may allowed royal family repair palace public funds uk parliament discuss petition hits mark friday chancellor exchequer philip hammond granted yearold queen percent rise funding required palaces refurbishment next years money would used replace cables pipes boilers installed years ago prevent catastrophic event might destroy palace according master queens household tony johnstoneburt petitioners argued royals foot massive bill given vast extent wealth crown estates made fund renovations wrote mark johnson posted petition protesters said money could used mend faltering national health service nhs help families get affordable homes amid housing crisis britains queen elizabeth ii rides carriage colombias president juan manuel santos ceremonial welcome horse guards parade central london november photo afp wholly unreasonable cut benefits sick disabled take away housing benefits poor pay said one signatory petition antimonarchy campaign group republic also took issue announcement denouncing disgrace whats worse appalling increase small part annual cost royal family put said graham smith member group past years uk government generous towards royal family despite cutting billions public money former treasury minister george osborne queens sovereign grant increased percent bringing total million year annual grant would inflated twothirds rising million grant financed profit coming royal familys acres land across uk loading | 1 |

the brightest moon in almost years will be lighting up the night sky this week in a treat for star watchers around the globe
the phenomenon known as the supermoon will reach its zenith in asia and the south pacific on monday night
it will then reach its most brightest mode in north america before dawn on monday
across the international dateline in new zealand it will reach its brightest after midnight on tuesday local time
if skies are clear the upcoming full moon will appear up to percent bigger and percent brighter than usual according to nasa this image shows a near full moon in aravica arizona on october photo by afp
the moons distance from earth varies because it is in an eggshaped not circular orbit around the planet
since the moons orbit is elliptical one side perigee is about kilometers closer to earth than the other apogee
the word syzygy is the scientific term used for when the earth sun and moon line up as the moon orbits earth
when perigeesyzygy of the earthmoonsun system occurs and the moon is on the opposite side of the earth from the sun we get a perigee moon which is more commonly known as supermoon
this coincidence already happened one time on october
on november and december it happens again as the moon becomes full on the same day as perigee on november it becomes full within about two hours of perigeearguably making it an extra supermoon

thousands of britons have signed a petition to express their outrage over queen elizabeths use of million in taxpayers money to repair the buckingham palace
more than people had signed the petition as of sunday two days after the government of prime minister theresa may allowed the royal family to repair the palace with public funds
the uk parliament should discuss the petition when it hits the mark
on friday the chancellor of the exchequer philip hammond granted the yearold queen a percent rise in funding required for the palaces refurbishment over the next years
the money would be used to replace cables pipes and boilers installed years ago to prevent a catastrophic event that might destroy the palace according to master of the queens household tony johnstoneburt
petitioners argued that the royals should foot the massive bill themselves given the vast extent of their wealth
the crown and its estates should be made to fund its own renovations wrote mark johnson who posted the petition
protesters said the money could be used to mend the faltering national health service nhs or help families get more affordable homes amid a housing crisis britains queen elizabeth ii rides a carriage with colombias president juan manuel santos after the ceremonial welcome at horse guards parade in central london november photo by afp
it is wholly unreasonable to cut the benefits of the sick and disabled take away housing benefits from the poor and then pay for this said one signatory of the petition
the antimonarchy campaign group republic also took issue with the announcement denouncing it as a disgrace
whats worse is this appalling increase is only a small part of the annual cost of the royal family which we put at m said graham smith a member of the group
over the past years the uk government has been generous towards the royal family despite cutting billions in public money

the iranian official also stressed that such preplanned and savage assaults emanate from the desperation of the terrorists who are taking successive blows on the battlefield
these brutal and inhumane acts will not affect the iraqi government and nations determination and the islamic republic of irans support for the oppressed iraqi people in the unrelenting fight against terrorism qassemi said the photo shows the site of a blast at a gas station near hilla south of the iraqi capital baghdad november

iranian parliament speaker ali larijani says the european union can play a significant role in the settlement of the syrian crisis and the campaign against terrorism
larijani made the remarks in a meeting with visiting finnish president sauli niinistö in tehran on wednesday
he said that iran supports political solutions to crises in the middle east including the conflict in syria while some extraregional players as well as regional sponsors of terrorist groups sabotaged diplomatic solutions through adopting wrong approaches
the top iranian parliamentarian also warned against the spillover of terrorism to other regions across the world
unfortunately military intervention by outsiders in regional issues and adopting a military approach and double standards on terrorism have led to a rise in the number of terrorist groups and contributed to their activities larijani said
he also blamed the extremist and deviated ideology of wahhabism for the spread of terrorism in the region stressing that neither sunnis nor shias support terrorist or extremist acts
elsewhere in his remarks larijani welcomed the expansion of ties between tehran and helsinki
the finnish official for his part called for the further promotion of ties between his country and iran
he also expressed regret about terrorist attacks in afghanistan iraq and syria and the lack of a political will to end the conflicts

syria has dismissed as baseless recent allegations brought against the damascus government by western countries in connection with chemical attacks in the wartorn arab country
the syrian arab republic has repeatedly denied all allegations circulated by some western circles and their agents about the use of chemical poisonous materials by syrian sides like chlorine gas during military operations against terrorists syrias foreign ministry said in a statement carried by the official sana news agency on wednesday
the statement came four days after an international inquiry blamed syrian government forces for a toxic gas attack in qminas in northwestern idlib province on march
the accusation was made in the fourth report from the monthlong probe by the united nations and the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons
however the syrian foreign ministry statement said that there was no tangible evidence for the inquirys findings
syria has repeatedly warned against repercussions of politicizing this issue regarding the credibility of the work of international relevant sides the ministry added
it also stressed that the syrian government remains committed to all its obligations under the chemical weapons convention a multilateral treaty that bans chemical weapons and requires their destruction
daesh has frequently used chemical weapons in both in syria and iraq where the takfiri terrorist group is mainly active

the pentagons plan to launch an offensive against the daesh isil terrorist group in syria is only aimed at undermining a successful attempt by the syrian government and its allies to defeat the terror group says james petras an american political commentator
us defense secretary ashton carter told nbc news on wednesday that the pentagon is planning a ground offensive to oust daesh from the syrian city of raqqah the terror groups stronghold in the country
carter who was in iraq earlier this week amid the ongoing battle to retake the city of mosul from daesh said the raqqah offensive would begin when iraqs second largest city is cleared
he claimed that us forces wont be directly involved in any of the operations
this is a ploy to have the us in northern syria petras said arguing that the us was seeking to undermine international efforts to defeat daesh in a bid to reinforce its own foothold in the conflictridden country
i dont believe that the attack on raqqah is a positive move because i think it brings the us closer to its policy of establishing a nofly zone in northern syria which will directly affect the efforts of the syrian government and its alliesiran and russiato defend the country
the analyst noted that raqqah is a problem for the syrian people and damascus should be allowed to choose its allies in the battle
petras went on to note that carters remarks bear similarities to us democratic presidential candidate hillary clintons plans for a conflagration in the middle east
the ongoing western efforts in syria have a different nature washington and its allies have come under fire for openly seeking to remove president bashar alassad from power

secret peace negotiations between mozambiques opposition leader afonso dhlakama and eu mediators were annulled at the weekend after fighting erupted between the countrys army and former rebel fighters local media say
the meeting aimed to contribute to talks that began in may to find a solution to the conflict between the government and dhlakamas rebel group turned political party renamo
we had agreed with president filipe nyusi that two mediators would come to meet me the independent weekly canal de mocambique quoted dhlakama as saying
dhlakama said he had cancelled the meeting after the army increased its presence near the place of the meeting
there was a violent shootout i even heard explosions from here said dhlakama who has been in hiding in the central gorongosa mountains since october
so i called chief mediator mario raffaelli to tell him that armed forces had come to ambush me he added
dhlakama quoted the mediator as saying that he was convinced that the ruling frelimo party wanted to capture me during the meeting
it is obvious they have a plan to kill me he added
raffaelli declined to comment on the matter but an eu diplomat who spoke on condition of anonymity confirmed that two mediators had gone to gorongosa for a meeting with the opposition leader
the diplomat said dhlakama had told the mediators to turn back at the very last moment
the political situation in mozambique has been tense for months with dhlakama refusing to recognize the results of the elections where the frelimo party was declared the winner the party has been in power since the southern african countrys independence from portugal in dhlakama also threatened to seize power by force in the northern half of the country
renamo and the frelimoled government had been engaged in a civil war for years that was brought to an end in
renamos armed wing has conducted a string of fatal assaults in central mozambique in recent years as it seeks to increase its share of power

unescos member world heritage committee adopted the resolution in wednesdays secret ballot at the agencys headquarters in paris
ten countries voted for two against eight abstained and one was absent in the voting
the resolution expresses unescos deep concerns over israeli construction works and archaeological excavations in the old city of jerusalem alquds
saeb erekat the secretary general of the palestine liberation organization welcomed the passage of the motion and accused the tel aviv regime of resorting to a campaign of distorting facts in a bid to legitimize its occupation of east jerusalem alquds
through an orchestrated campaign israel has been using archaeological claims and distortion of facts as a way to legitimize the annexation of occupied east jerusalem erekat said
he further noted that the unesco resolution urges respecting the status quo of its religious sites including the alaqsa mosque compound that continues to be threatened by the systematic incitement and provocative actions of the israeli government and extremist jewish groups
earlier this month unescos member executive board approved a similar resolution prompting a furious reaction from israel as the regime suspended its ties with the agency

british defense minister michael fallon says the uk is set to deploy hundreds of troops to the baltic region in europe to support its nato allies in the face of a more assertive russia
fallon told a nato ministerial meeting in brussels on wednesday that britain would send soldiers to estonia to fulfill its pledge to deliver one of four battalions to natos enhanced forward presence in eastern europe
backed by a rising defense budget this deployment of air land and sea forces shows that we will continue to play a leading role in nato supporting the defense and security of our allies from the north to the south of the alliance fallon said
nato had announced in july that it would deploy on a rotational basis four multinational battalions to poland and the baltic statesestonia latvia and lithuaniato deter what it referred to as any russian incursion
during his address at the meeting fallon also said that four british typhoon fighter jets would be dispatched to romania under the nato southern air policing mission which is supposed to protect the baltic states airspace against possible attacks from russia
this is about two things reassurance and that needs to be done with some formidable presence and deterrence fallon had said in an earlier interview this is not simply a tripwirethis is a serious military presence
the move is likely to draw criticism from moscow which has been angered by natos military buildup on its western borders
the usled military alliance cut its ties with moscow in and has been reinforcing its presence near russias borders ever since
the uk and russia have strong disagreements over a number of issues mainly the conflicts in syria and ukraine
the two countries military forces have been involved in a series of aerial and naval confrontations with britain sending its jets and warships on several occasions to intercept russian bombers and naval fleets

gordon duff a senior editor with the veterans today told press tv that james clapper who spoke out against former secretary of states emphasis on a nofly zone over syria is responsible because the american officials obtain their intelligence on the syrian conflict from the spy chief
the public position of the united states visàvis syria was established based on intelligence supplied exclusively by james clapper duff noted adding he clapper is the one that talks about the gas hes the one who talks about the barrel bombs and everything thats been disproven
he said every crazy scheme that the us comes up with to blame syria for killing its own people or the russians for slaughtering people in hospitals it all comes from james clapper the director of the national intelligence agency who fed that information to secretary clinton who fed that information to president barack obama
clinton said that she favored a nofly zone only if acceptable for both russia and damascus and after negotiations which is a very different story than the one said by the spy chief for political purposes duff said
duff added that the imposition of nofly zone obviously is going to help no one but alnusra front and isis daesh terrorists
damascus and moscow carry out airstrikes against terrorist groups who wreak havoc in the arab country but the us and its allies push for imposing a nofly zone on syria to pursue their agenda in the warridden state

clashes have erupted outside south africas parliament as police struggled to disperse students protesting against financial hardships and the deteriorating economic situation in the country
the protest on wednesday outside the national assembly building in cape town saw a direct confrontation between the police and about students
the protesting students were mainly angry at the increased tuition fees in the universities they also voiced anger at south africas grim economic prospects
other cities across the country have seen similar protests over the past weeks some of them violent officials in cape town johannesburg and elsewhere have even ordered the temporary closure of the universities to calm down the situation an injured student is helped by classmates during a protest outside the parliament in cape town south africa october photo by reuters
the clashes on wednesday came as finance minister pravin gordhan delivered a speech in the parliament to warn about south africas weakening economy although he vowed that the government would do anything to help students in the country cope with financial problems
we will do everything that is possible to regain normality on our campuses we want the violence to stop gordhan said adding many students face financial hardships that undermine their ability to succeed academically
gordhan said south africas growth forecast stood at percent he also stated that an extra billion rand billion would be earmarked for funding university students
he warned that a growing sense of political uncertainty in south africa could seriously harm the countrys financial position in the world
much more disturbing and more difficult is the rise in our own communities of anger and discontent spilling over into violence and destructive protests gordhan said adding it is not just that our economic outlook is distressed and there is the possibility of downgrades in credit ratings
gordhans promise of spending cuts and fighting corruption has triggered a new political standoff in south africa he has been ordered to appear in court on november to face charges of fraud in what many see as a direct clash between him and people loyal to president jacob zuma the minister enjoys a good deal of public support over his record in office

the un refugee agency also known as the unhcr says the number of refugees who died in the mediterranean sea on their way to europe in has reached an alltime high
we can confirm that at least people have been reported dead or missing in the mediterranean sea so far this year making the death toll in the highest ever recorded said the un refugee agency spokesman william spindler on wednesday
the alarming surge which surpassed the death toll of for comes despite a considerable decline in the number of refugees crossing the mediterranean in
more than a million people reached europe via the mediterranean in while fewer than crossings have been reported so far this year
the number of refugees heading to europe has declined as the european union in march signed a controversial deal with turkey aimed at stemming the flow of refugees into the continent by forcing those deported from the eu to either be located in turkey or go back to the original country of departure
since then the route between libya and italy across the central mediterranean has become the main way as pathways to greece have been closed down
according to the agency the likelihood of perishing in the shorter route between turkey and greece was one in while one death for every arrivals was reported in the most perilous route between libya and italy in

the recovery operation which took place with the help of a team from the berlinbased nongovernmental organization seawatch took a long time as the boat was flooded with a mixture of fuel and seawater
the mixture of water and fuel was so foul that we could not stay on the boat for long periods it was horrible said michele telaro the msf project leader

speaking to nbc news on wednesday carter said washington was ready to equip syrian and kurdish fighters to launch the assault in the near future
it starts in the next few weeks hat has long been our plan and we will be capable of resourcing both groups the pentagon chief noted
carter who was in iraq earlier this week amid the ongoing battle to retake the city of mosul from daesh said the raqqah offensive would begin when iraqs second largest city is cleared
the iraqi army backed by volunteer forces has been engaged in a large military offensive to cleanse mosul of daesh terrorists since last week a coalition of usled countries has been reportedly providing air support to the operation
its been long a part of our plan that the mosul operation would kick off when it did this was a plan that goes back many months now and that raqqah would follow soon behind carter added iraqi forces gather in the alshura area south of mosul october photo by afp
carter acknowledged that us forces wont be directly involved in any of the operations
more than american soldiers are currently stationed in iraq tasked with providing training and intelligence to iraqi forces according to us military officials
the usled coalition has also been carrying out airstrikes against purported daesh positions in syria since
however the ongoing western efforts in syria have a different nature washington and its allies have come under fire for openly seeking to remove president bashar alassad from power
amnesty international a ukbased rights group said wednesday that the usled airstrikes have killed hundreds of civilians across syria
carters remarks came only a day after british defense secretary michael fallon said uk special forces will soon resume training moderate militants in syria to bolster the fight against daesh
the new effort would be an extension of a failed million program by the pentagon that was supposed to train and equip up to militants every year but was discontinued in november last year after failing to attract enough volunteers

the us military forces have secretly been using an airbase in tunisia for drone operations to gather intelligence from inside oilrich libya officials say
the announcement was made by unnamed sources cited in a washington post report on wednesday
libya has been struggling to contain the daesh takfiri terrorists who started expanding their presence in the country following the overthrow and death of longtime dictator muammar gaddafi in
the base has apparently been in use since late june in an alleged effort to support the libyan governments fight against the terrorists currently in control of the northern city of sirte
the us has also been using bases in niger and djibouti but those ones are farther away
efforts by the administration of president barack obama to access the airbase were meant to keep drones and small special operations teams within striking distance of the militants and close a blind spot for us and western spy agencies
the officials also asserted that the drones were unarmed and tasked with gathering intelligences adding they could be armed in the future if tunis agrees
the tunisian government is yet to issue a possible response to the report
drones tasked with assassination in the north african country usually fly out of naval air station sigonella on the italian island of sicily
the reason for keeping use of the airbase secret has been mentioned as part of the obama administration efforts not to harm tunisias young democracy as put by the washington post
washington conducts targeted killings through remotelycontrolled armed drones in several african and middle eastern countries
the united states claims the airstrikes target members of alqaeda and other militants but according to local officials and witnesses civilians have been the victims of the attacks
the airstrikes initiated by former us president george w bush have been escalated since barack obama took office in

british prime minister theresa may is facing growing criticism over her comments about brexit at a leaked private speech to goldman sachs
the premier who has publicly made the case for a hard brexit following a june referendum speaks of the benefits of being an eu member in the hourlong session whose audio file was leaked to the guardian on tuesday night drawing harsh criticism on wednesday
i think the economic arguments are clear i think being part of a million population trading bloc is significant for us i think as i was saying to you a little earlier that one of the issues is that a lot of people will invest here in the uk because it is the uk in europe she is heard saying if we were not in europe i think there would be firms and companies who would be looking to say do they need to develop a mainland europe presence rather than a uk presence so i think there are definite benefits for us in economic terms
the leader of the rival labour party jeremy corbyn attacked the prime minister for having failed to address her own concerns about leaving the european union
corbyn has previously been calling on the toryheld government for a clear plan to exit the bloc a video grab from footage broadcast by the uk parliaments parliamentary recording unit pru shows british opposition labour party leader jeremy corbyn r as he responds during prime ministers questions pmqs in the house of commons in london on october photo by afp
the prime minister has given her private views on brexit to goldman sachs bankers but refuses to give the british people a clear plan for negotiations said the labour leader it shouldnt take a leaked tape for the public to find out what she really thinks
the former labour leader and leading member of the open britain campaign group ed miliband also reacted to the comments saying the leaked comments prove that may shares the concerns of all the britons on brexit
if private warnings are to be matched by proper public debate it is essential that the government is not allowed to hoard vital analysis of the impact on our economy of leaving the single market this work is being done in government and it must now be published he said asserting that mays comments demonstrated that the prime minister was just as worried privately as the rest of us are publicly about the economic impact of the hard destructive brexit her government seems set on
according to the guardian the audio file was leaked as may was prioritizing cutting immigration over staying in the single market while refusing to elaborate any further on her plans for taking the uk out of the eu british foreign minister boris johnson leaves the weekly cabinet meeting at downing street in london on october photo by afp
