Ivanka Trump was interviewed by CBS This Morning and discusses the New York Times political hit piece against her father, candidate Donald Trump:

A new PPP poll from Arizona (full pdf below) shows Senator John McCain is in a serious battle for the GOP primary.  Challenger Kelli Ward is currently tied with McCain at 41% and the majority of republican electorate have a negative view of McCain.

Some of the internal polling results might be surprising to readers and political followers, especially given the preferred media narratives bantered about by the insufferable MSM punditry.
Example:  Kelli Ward is more heavily supported by Men 46/40 over McCain.  Conversely Women support McCain 43/36 over Ward.  The complete opposite narrative from what national punditry will opine (gaslight) when discussing gender based voting. (more…)

The preferred narrative is gaining increasing evidence. Those who gain benefit from leveraging a cultural shift of modern feminism are working earnestly to retain it.
The phrase:  “you cannot talk down to me because I’m a woman“, traditional -arguably appropriate- ERA feminism, demanded equality in opportunity.  However, that argument has now been dropped.
Modern feminism is leveraged: “you cannot criticize me, because I’m a woman“.
The traditional demands of equality are following a predictable pattern and now invoking leveraged benefit.
Ultimately, this is the modern version of feminism, and one currently being advanced by personalities like Fox News host Megyn Kelly.  Social justice memes demanding a higher position of consideration based on (fill_in_the_blank), where this specific blank is filled with gender.
The objective determinations of skill and competency are now being clouded by lowered expectations forced by the benefactors who gain by lowering the expectation.  It is a dangerous and slippery slope to bar critical evaluation based on lowered expectations due to gender.   Such well-intentioned pathways historically lead to soft-bigotry caused by lessened expectations.
However, if Hillary Clinton is to gain nation-wide elected office her incompetence and inability must be shielded.  This is the basic motive for a growing gender-based narrative as injected into the 2016 presidential race.   The latest attempts by the Washington Post and New York Times are ultimately evidence of this intention.

It should come as no surprise to discover a recent New York Times article was written as a specifically intended and targeted hit piece against a candidate who is opposed to the liberal world-view preferred by the Times.  After all, the NYT is infamous for injecting their liberal ideological views into their publications, and even admissions by former editors of using the newspaper to target ideological opponents.
The most recent story outlining candidate Donald Trump was written to provide support for Hillary Clinton and to disparage the candidacy of Trump.   To show further evidence of this intention, the woman at the center of the NYT article, a former girlfriend of Mr. Trump, is stating today the Times article was fraught with lies and manipulations of her interview.
In her own words:

This is a follow-up to an earlier story from April.  The pastor has admitted to making the entire thing up.  Whole Foods has a counter lawsuit against Pastor Jordan Brown for perpetrating fraud and defamation. No word on whether Whole Foods plans to drop their counter lawsuit. 
Doubtful the MSM will expose this admission with the same severity they pushed the original story…

(Via MSM) The Texas pastor who sued Whole Foods in April for allegedly writing a gay slur on a cake he bought withdrew his lawsuit on Monday and apologized to the supermarket chain for perpetrating a hoax, KVUE reported.
Openly gay pastor Jordan Brown said in April that he requested a cake from Whole Foods with the phrase “Love Wins” written on it, but when he received his cake there was a homophobic remark added. Brown made the accusation in an Internet video and launched a lawsuit shortly thereafter.
But alert viewers quickly pointed out that the icing style used to write “Love Wins” and the gay slur appeared to differ, and Whole Foods released surveillance video showing the cake being purchased with only “Love Wins” in writing.

Against the backlash from Facebook being exposed for controlling content based on ideological views, CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced he was going to meet with “conservative voices” to discuss their concerns.
Glenn Beck subsequently announced his participation in this upcoming meeting. –SEE HERE –
It’s all smoke and mirrors folks.  This PR ruse is about the most insufferable damage control amid years of behind-the-scenes political consultation is, well, silly.
The control of Facebook and other social media platforms to push political narratives is well documented, and extends far beyond non-traditional social media.  Matt Drudge was talking about it last year (see here).  And we’ve been following it since 2010.
Consider this picture:

Yes, that’s the leadership within the House of representatives in the spring of 2014 (Paul Ryan, Eric Cantor and Kevin McCarthy) meeting with Facebook’s CEO, Zuckerberg, and COO Sheryl Sandberg, to outline how Facebook could help the House of Representative pass comprehensive immigration reform by removing oppositional viewpoint from the social media feeds.

Congressman Tim Huelskamp appeared on Fox News Sunday today to provide the #NeverTrumpers with a proselytizing butthurt voice in the media cycle.  Huelskamp was so proud of himself after the interview, he bragged about it to his #NeverTrump cohorts.
Of course, it goes without saying, corporate Fox News Broadcasting is more than willing to give the location coordinates  to a social purity moonbat on a kamikaze mission in order to continue their efforts to sabotage any adversary to Wall Street’s preferred candidate, Hillary Clinton.

It is doubtful you could find a more representative persona (and set of accompanying arguments) for the typical Ted Cruz supporter than Tim Huelskamp.
In the video below the congressman outlines how Donald Trump fails all applied social litmus tests for conservative purity because Mr. Trump is not: religious enough, preachy enough, politically correct enough, and in a general sense is too crass for the moral authority wing of the religious right.
As Congressman Huelskamp outlines, those who are elected to legislate on appropriate bathroom issues, tone and manners, gender roles, as well as appropriate hem lengths, distance between dance partners and the dangers of modern cultural music, are aghast that a republican electorate would consider such vulgar “New York values” (<— yes Alice, he actually said that).
You must watch this video below and you’ll see exactly why “Religious Purity Conservative Republicans” lose elections: (more…)

Tensions exploded in Nevada today as a newly engaged Democrat electoral base found out how corrupt the Clinton Political Machine is.
Clinton determined to “Destroy The Bern”.
It started when the “PARTY APPARATUS”, through the direction of Hillary Clinton, scheduled the Nevada Convention on the same day as UNLV graduation. This was intended to keep the Bernie Sanders supporters out of the convention itself, and provide additional leverage for the Clinton team to steamroll the process.  Team Clinton began the steamrolling by counting the delegates while Team Bernie was still in the registration process….

The convention began with secret meetings within the rules committee and a quick collection of delegate counts prior to all of the attendees and Delegates actually having an opportunity to be present on the floor. Bernie Sanders supporters demanding delegate recounts, and requesting a re-vote.
This was followed by Bernie Sanders supporters becoming angry over a voice vote that adopted a set of temporary convention rules as the permanent rules. The rules committee denied points of order brought up by the attending Bernie Sanders supporters. The Bernie voters were shut down and not allowed to have their voices heard. (more…)

Here’s a summary of day two in the trial of police officer Edward Nero…
(Via Baltimore Sun)  Prosecutors spent much of the second day of Officer Edward Nero‘s trial trying to prove he was directly involved in Freddie Gray‘s detention and arrest — at times using Nero’s own statement to police investigators.
At one point Friday, Chief Deputy State’s Attorney Michael Schatzow read from a transcript of Nero’s statement.
“I then see Officer [Garrett] Miller chasing the other suspect, and Officer Miller at this time is now on foot,” Nero said, according to Schatzow. “He has his Taser in his hand. He’s saying, ‘Stop or I’m going to tase you.’
“He never tases him. I guess the suspect seen me. He then — he then stops. He looked like he kind of like slipped. I don’t know what he did, but either way he stopped.”

“Miller and I, we got him in custody. Miller took out his cuffs; he cuffs him.” (more…)

Nero’s defense attorney Marc Zayon said his client had a limited role. Rice was out of Nero’s view when he called out over the radio that he was involved in a pursuit, and Officer Garrett Miller was the one who caught and handcuffed Gray, Zayon said. Miller was in control, at one point asking Nero to retrieve his bike from a few blocks away.

(Via The Baltimore Sun)  Attorneys for Baltimore Police Officer Edward Nero sought to minimize his role in the arrest of Freddie Gray on the first day of his trial, saying he pursued the 25-year-old based on a supervisor’s calls for help and only touched him to try to find his inhaler.
Nero’s bench trial began Thursday in a downtown courtroom with prosecutors saying the officers who detained Gray on April 12, 2015 lacked legal justification, making his arrest an assault. Legal observers have said it is an unusual theory, and the case is expected to involve complex arguments about the authority of officers to stop citizens.
The trial, which could last five days, also involves allegations that Nero failed to care for Gray when he did not secure him with a seat belt in the back of the arrest van, where he ultimately suffered a fatal spine injury. (more…)
