GOP presidential frontrunner Donald Trump caused another media frenzy over comments he made during a series of interviews in the aftermath of news that his campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, had been charged with simple battery.

White House press secretary Josh Earnest on Wednesday condemned Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump Corey Lewandowski is accused of grabbing the arm of a reporter after a Trump press conference in Florida earlier this month. “I am confident that neither President Obama nor President Bush would tolerate someone on their staff being accused of physically assaulting a reporter, lying about it and then blaming the victim,” Earnest told reporters. Earnest said Trump's response to the Lewandowski incident, as well his other controversial actions, is "completely outside the realm of acceptable behavior.”

I’m demanding that Michelle Fields charge me with hacking her computer. She won’t, of course, because I didn’t do it. She only charges people for brushing past her at a campaign event. Nothing serious like hacking. In December of 2015 Fields falsely accused me of hacking her computer and has continued to repeat the lie even after her bosses told her to cut it out. She had sent me a LinkedIn request and I called her. We had a friendly conversation before she tweeted out to the world that I had hacked her. Seriously. I texted her and said something...

The Florida prosecutor who will oversee the battery case against Donald Trump’s campaign manager is a donor to Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton and part of her Florida “leadership council" — but his office shut off any questions about his political stance 
as “inappropriate.” A spokesman for Palm Beach County State Attorney Dave 
Aronberg scolded a Herald 
reporter for requesting an interview with the Democrat to discuss how he’ll balance his own political leanings with the politically charged case against Lowell native Corey Lewandowski, 
calling it an “inappropriate 
conversation.” “It’s an inappropriate request, and we’re not responding to it,” spokesman Mike...

Imagine that a senior Hillary aide--not to mention Hillary herself--were indicted over the email scandal. In a million years, could you imagine John Heilemann asking what such person would have to do to prove his or her innocence? Neither could I. But on today's With All Due Respect, Heilemann asked a Florida criminal defense attorney [not Lewandowski's lawyer]: "What is the legal standard? What does Corey Lewandowski have to prove, to prove his innocence?" Attorney Whitney Boan politely pointed out that under the Constitution, Lewandowski doesn't have to prove or disprove anything, and that to the contrary the burden is...

Donald Trump's campaign blocked a Politico reporter from attending the candidate's victory rally on Tuesday night, continuing a troubling trend of denying access to reporters who write critically about Trump and his campaign. Ben Schreckinger, who has been covering Trump for more than six months, was denied access to Tuesday night's "press conference" -- Trump did not actually take any questions -- despite the fact that the campaign had already given press credentials. In blocking Schreckinger, the Trump campaign appears to have been following through on a threat it made last week to exclude Politico reporters from campaign events because...

Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields made headlines last week when she claimed Trump Campaign Manager Corey Lewandowski grabbed her and threw her down on the ground at the Jupiter, Florida victory speech on Tuesday night. Video now proves that Fields exaggerated the story for some strange reason.

Breitbart has adjusted a report which originally suggested video evidence showed that Washington Post reporter Ben Terris misidentified the man who grabbed at Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields following a Tuesday night press conference with Donald Trump. The new version of the report includes new video that appears to show Lewandowski reaching for Fields. Both Fields and Terris have said Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski aggressively yanked Fields out of the way on Tuesday night after Fields tried to ask a question. Though the conservative, and often pro-Trump site, noted in its first report that "the altercation itself is not shown"...

Stop speculating about the story,” Pollak told staffers in one message, and reminded them that “you were given explicit instructions.”“You may wish to defend your colleague, and that...
