    Conservative radio talk show host Laura Ingraham's next microphone could be behind the White House press briefing room podium. Ingraham is under serious consideration for White House press secretary, sources confirmed to CNN on Monday. Other people are in contention for the post as well, the sources said. But Ingraham's name stands out because of her nationally syndicated talk radio show and her close ties to Trump. Ingraham, 53, spoke at the Republican National Convention over the summer and advised Trump ahead of the fall debates. She has also advocated for Trump on her radio show and in numerous Fox...

    The Washington Post's Post Politics ^ | November 11, 2016 | John Wagner and Mike DeBonis
    Sen. Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.), who is expected to be the incoming Senate minority leader, has thrown his support behind Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) to be the next chairman of the Democratic National Committee. The backing provides a major boost to the expected candidacy of Ellison, who has the support of several liberal lawmakers, including Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and an array of progressive advocacy groups. Schumer spokesman Matt House said that Schumer and Ellison spoke Thursday and that Schumer has decided to support the Minnesota lawmaker, who co-chairs the Congressional Progressive Caucus....

    Greetings world. The time for celebration is over. The fight is just beginning. The powers of evil have already regrouped. They are already acting to make our lives harder. The riots in America are paid for by George Soros. If you think that they will just go away. You are wrong. We know that you want to be happy. We know that you want to let the presidential election go. But the forces of evil never quit. The forces of evil want you to suffer for making your own decisions. The global elite want you to do as they say....

    Hillary Clinton's closest aide Huma Abedin wept in the street as she approached the failed campaign's headquarters in Brooklyn The FBI investigation into her pervert estranged husband Anthony Weiner is being cited as one of the reasons for her boss losing - it led to the Clinton email investigation being re-opened It is unclear what Abedin, 40, will do now that her boss's political career is over; she has never worked for anyone else Abedin made the phonecall to Trump's aide Kellyann Conway in which Clinton conceded to the President-elect - minutes after her cmapaign chairman had suggested there would...
  • Indian Americans voted for Trump in significant numbers

    The Hindu ^ | November 11, 2016 | Varghese K. George
    Indian Americans are mostly Democrats in the U.S according to quantitative analyses but a large number of them voted for Republican Donald Trump in this election, anecdotal evidence suggests. And one of the main reasons that many cite for doing so is Huma Abedin, former Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton’s close aide, who happens to be a Muslim. Some others voted hoping that Mr. Trump will cut taxes. Indian American leaders in the Democratic Party - candidates and major donors – have sought to create a larger Asian minority coalition in support of Ms. Clinton with Pakistani activists playing a significant...

    Longtime Clinton backer James Carville reacts to the apparent outcome of the 2016 election. JAMES CARVILLE: Shaky is about as optimistic a word as I can see right now. I think this is, if this thing goes where it looks like, where I hope it doesn't go, people gotta understand, this election is gonna have consequences like you can't believe. I was looking with Steve Schmidt's presentation and I think Steve was, if anything, optimistic. Donald Trump now has the authority of an election behind him. It's the biggest thing that you can have in a democracy. You can't --...

    I think we should document those "Conservatives", GOP Politicians and Center-Right media figures who sided with the Clinton camp this time around. I am looking for those who rode the #Never Trump train right down to the bitter end on Nov 8th, 2016 I think it important we remember, going forward, that when a "time for choosing" came, some of ours supposed allies failed the test. The next time they come asking for money, subscriptions or other support, we need to remember they are not really on our side politically

    Dark prophecies are more likely to seem credible in church. So when Hillary Clinton took the stage at Mt. Airy Church of God and quoted Proverbs—”where there is no vision, the people perish”—the congregation nodded and said “amen” in solemn agreement. “This election, in many ways, is about what kind of future our country will have,” Clinton told the members of the black church in Philadelphia on Sunday. “Will it be dark and divisive, calling up the specters of our past?” But Clinton did not need the Bible to convince them. In the twilight of the presidential campaign, Clinton’s supporters...

    Not everyone had positive things to say about Hillary Clinton at a campaign rally for the Democratic nominee in Ames, Iowa, on Saturday. Ahead of a speech by Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, a student of Iowa State University took the briefly took the stage where he attacked Clinton for her ties to billionaire donors and the military industrial complex. The speech by Kaleb Vanfosson, the president of the Iowa State chapter of Students for Bernie club, started out with a knock against GOP nominee Donald Trump. On rising student debt, Vanfosson said, "While the part-time reality TV show and full-time...

    The Daily Caller ^ | November 5, 2016 | Peter Hasson, associate editor
    Leaked transcripts from a closed-door fundraiser reveal former president Bill Clinton privately agreeing with one of Republican nominee Donald Trump’s major campaign themes: the political system is rigged against working class Americans. Clinton also appeared to tell the audience of Democratic donors that Hillary Clinton “deserves” to be elected president. Clinton’s comments took place at an October 2015 private fundraiser for Hillary Clinton in Cheseapeake, Maryland. The transcript of Clinton’s remarks were published by WikiLeaks alongside thousands of emails sent and received by Clinton campaign chair John Podesta. In the speech, Clinton admitted that “there are lots of people in...

    Al Jazeera ^ | November 4, 2016 | Chris Sheridan
    It makes fans of Hillary Clinton very anxious every time I state this simple fact: attendance at the Democratic candidate's rallies is mediocre at best. The pictures have told the story over the past six months. Republican Donald Trump is filling convention centres, airport hangars and parks. Clinton, on the other hand, is filling community centres and small colleges, but just barely. The people campaigning for her - the rock stars of the Democratic Party like First Lady Michelle Obama, President Barack Obama and Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders - have bigger and more energetic crowds. Moreover, as Clinton goes into...

    CLEVELAND (AP) — The Latest on legal arguments over allegations Republican volunteers are engaging in voter intimidation in the guise of preventing voter fraud (all times local): 7:30 p.m. A federal judge in Phoenix is refusing to issue an injunction sought by Democrats that would have ordered Republicans not to engage in illegal voter intimidation tactics at the polls next week. U.S. District Judge John Tuchi's Friday evening ruling says the state Democratic Party hadn't shown evidence that the Republicans were conspiring to conduct illegal voter intimidation. He says he's willing to revisit the issue if evidence of voter intimidation...

    The Democratic elector from Washington — a state Clinton is all but certain to win — called the presidential candidate a “criminal” and said he won’t cast his ballot for her. Calling Hillary Clinton a “criminal,” a Democratic Electoral College voter from Washington state has vowed not to cast his ballot for the Democratic nominee if she wins the popular vote in his state. Robert Satiacum told the Associated Press Friday that Clinton “will not get my vote, period.” Satiacum, a member of the Puyallup Tribe and former Bernie Sanders supporter, said he believes Clinton has “done nothing but flip...
  • What If The First Few Swing States Go To Trump By An Eight To Fifteen Point Margin?

    11/04/2016 4:08:00 PM PDT · by Pence_Dispenser · 62 replies
    A definite and early sign that Trump will win will be the gap in the first few states that call in their totals. Lets say its Iowa,Indiana,South Carolina,Michigan and one more in middle America. Trump wins all of them handily,either a 65/35 or 60/40 clear victory. This would prove what we have all been suspicious of regarding the skewed polls. ABC and CNN in particular will lose all credibility.
