  Top Trump campaign officials on Sunday expressed optimism about recent poll numbers amid the fallout from Democratic rival Hillary Clinton’s FBI email investigation and sought to defend the Republican presidential nominee's immigration plan in advance of the White House race intensifying after Labor Day. “The polling data that you showed earlier really tells the tale,” Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway told ABC’s “This Week.” “Hillary Clinton is having a hard time being accepted as a truthful and honest candidate vis-à-vis the American people.”  Clinton’s poll numbers have dropped in recent weeks amid further revelations about her use of a private email server while secretary of state and connections between Clinton Foundation donors and the State Department during and after her tenure at the agency. The RealClearPolitics polls average showed Clinton leading Donald Trump by as many as 8 percentage points in mid-August, when the first-time candidate m, ...ادامه مطلب

  President Obama may be struggling to tilt the balance of the Supreme Court – but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t already made his mark on the bench. The president, over the course of his two terms, has appointed hundreds of justices to the lower federal courts, leading to a majority of appeals courts now dominated by Democratic picks. While those nomination battles aren’t nearly as high-profile as they are for the high court, the impact of the appointments is just as pronounced.   “It's often overlooked, but nominees to the lower courts ... are often one of the most important legacies a president leaves behind,” said Elizabeth Wydra, president of the Constitutional Accountability Center. The Fourth Circuit, which sits just one level below the Supreme Court and is headquartered in Richmond, Va., is a prime example.

  Debbie Wasserman Schultz is fighting Tuesday to hold onto her House seat after losing her post atop the Democratic National Committee last month over a leaked email scandal, amid waings from her primary challenger that she’s taken her base “for granted.” First-time candidate Tim Canova, a law professor backed by Beie Sanders, is trying to unseat the incumbent Tuesday, in one of several big end-of-the-season primaries. Canova’s longshot bid to upset Wasserman Schultz got a huge boost this spring when Sanders endorsed him and even hinted at coming to Florida to campaign for him. He benefited again when Wasserman Schultz was caught up in the leak of emails showing top DNC officials criticizing and discussing ways to undermine Sanders’ presidential primary campaign against Hillary Clinton. In the end, Sanders never did show up to stump for Canova. But the candidate was able to mount a considerable campaign on his own, amassing $3.8 million to advertise across south , ...ادامه مطلب

  Donald Trump walked a political tightrope Saturday -- promising in heartland Iowa to help farmers across the country by cutting taxes and federal regulations while continuing his stark appeal to potentially disaffected minority voters in U.S. inner cities. “We are going to end this war on the American farmer,” Trump told the crowd at Iowa GOP Sen. Joni Est’s influential “Roast and Ride” rally in Des Moines. In a roughly 45-minute address in which Trump largely stuck to measured and prepared remarks, the Republican presidential nominee also repeatedly tried to distinguish himself from Democratic rival Hillary Clinton and appealed to evangelicals and others to assist him in helping minorities and winning the November election. “Clinton wants to shut down family farms just like she wants to shut down the mines and the steel workers,” said Trump, waing her plan includes “radical” regulations and raising taxes on family farms, to rates as high as nearly 50 pe,chris christie heartland appeal ...ادامه مطلب

  San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepeick is refusing to stand for the national anthem before games because he believes the United States oppresses African Americans and other minorities. Kaepeick sat on the team's bench Friday night during the anthem before the Niners played host to the Green Bay Packers in an exhibition game. He later explained his reasoning in an interview with NFL Media . ''I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color,'' Kaepeick said. ''To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder.'' The 49ers issued a statement after Pro Football Talk initially reported on Kaepeick's stand, saying that Americans have the right to protest or support the anthem. ''The national anthem is and always will be a special part of the pregame ceremony,'' the team , ...ادامه مطلب

  With 75 days before voters pick their new president, email revelations are threatening to overtake Hillary Clinton’s campaign – with WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange hurling another log on an already raging fire with a vow to release “significant” Clinton documents. In an exclusive interview Wednesday night with Fox News’ Megyn Kelly, Assange was asked whether new information culled from Clinton emails would be released before the general election: "Yes, absolutely.”  Asked whether it could be an election game-changer, Assange told Kelly, “It depends on how it catches fire." Dana Perino, former White House press secretary under the George W. Bush administration and co-host of Fox News’ “The Five,” predicted Assange would release the files before the third presidential debate, since “it is the one everyone pays attention to.” WikiLeaks is the same gr,caught in a trap,caught in a sticky situation,caught in a mosh,caught in a crossfire,caught in a lie,caught in a mosh lyrics,caught in a bad romance,caught in a landslide,caught in a trap lyrics,caught in action ...ادامه مطلب

WASHINGTON –  The former Navy SEAL who wrote a book about his role in the raid that killed Usama bin Laden will pay the govement more than $6.6 million for violating non-disclosure agreements and publishing without getting the document cleared by the Defense Department, according to federal court documents. Matt Bissonnette, who wrote "No Easy Day" under the pseudonym Mark Owen, will give the U.S. govement all profits and royalties from the book or movie rights.

People walk around the Princeton University campus in New Jersey (Reuters) Princeton has become no man’s land. The famed Ivy League institution rolled out a series of gender-neutral terms aimed at removing the word “man” and other male-leaning language from official school material. As first reported Thursday by the conservative campus news outfit The College Fix, Princeton’s Human Resources and Office of Communications issued a four-page memo filled with examples of gender-neutral terminology that must now be used in official school documents, such as: The word “actress” should be replaced by “actor.” A “cameraman” must now be called a “camera operator.” There will be no more references to a “cleaning lady,” but instead an “office cleaner.” New students are no longer “freshmen” but rather “first-year students.” A “mailman” no longer delive,no man's sky,no man's sky update,no man's sky review,no man's sky 1 04,no man's sky patch,no man's sky reddit,no man's sky pc,no man's sky mods,no man's sky release,no man's sky xbox one ...ادامه مطلب

  Joanna and Chip Gaines, of HGTV’s  “Fixer Upper,” aren't too happy that some of the homes they have remodeled in Waco, Texas, are being marketed as vacation rentals. The Waco Tribune reported that at least six of the Gaines’ remodeled homes are on the rental sites Airbnb and VRBO. One more Gaines' remodeled home will reportedly be listed in the near future. "Fixer Upper" follows the Gaines as they find wannabe homeowners in need of a new place who can't afford a home with all the bells and whistles. The couple then works to remodel an older home. The couple, according to a spokesperson, say never intended for their remodeled homes to be used for financial gain.

On March 20, 2013, William P. Franklin, an “inteational realty specialist” at the State Department, emailed Mary E. Davis, an American diplomat stationed in Africa, instructing her to “put on Post letterhead” an “expression of interest” by the department in purchasing property at Eko Atlantic, a massive real estate development off the coast of Lagos. Franklin further instructed that the signed letter was to be “delivered to Ronald Chagoury.” The draft letter, also obtained by Fox News, was undated and addressed to Chagoury care of his firm South Energyx Nigeria Limited, a subsidiary of the larger, ...ادامه مطلب
