Gingrich affirms election being stolen – by media

Calls it a 'coup,' says Trump would be winning by 15 points without 1-sided press

WND

WASHINGTON – Former House Speaker affirmed Donald Trump’s claims that the presidential election is being stolen by a one-sided media almost universally working shamelessly for his opponent, ignoring substantive Hillary Clinton scandals while hyping unsubstantiated charges against Trump.

“I think that without the unending one-sided assault of the news media, Trump would be beating Hillary by 15 points,” he told Martha Raddatz on ABC’s “This Week.” “I think when you look at WikiLeaks and you look at all the things she has said, when you look at the deals in Russia that Bill Clinton made, and that the Clinton Foundation – I mean, all this nonsense by [Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim] Kaine about Russia, it’s Clinton, Bill Clinton, who got a half a million dollar speech. It is the Clintons who got money for the Clinton Foundation from Russia. It is – it is [Hillary Clinton’s campaign manager John] Podesta who was on a Russian company advisory board that was apparently funded by [Vladimir] Putin.

Philippine president's China trip puts US ties to the test

AP News / via Townhall.com

MANILA, Philippines (AP) — After lashing out at longtime ally America, the new Philippine president is making a state visit to China in a charm offensive that will help define how far he wants to shift allegiance from treaty ally the U.S. to an Asian superpower locked in a territorial standoff with his small, impoverished country.

It's a high-stakes gamble for brash President Rodrigo Duterte.

While he recalibrates Philippine relations with the world's big powers, his country's 65-year alliance with the United States — a key pillar of President Barack Obama's rebalance to Asia — hangs in the balance. China will likely move to regain lost ground in a Southeast Asian nation that won a major arbitration lawsuit against Beijing's massive territorial claims in the South China Sea just three months ago.

Below is a look at some of the issues surrounding Duterte's four-day visit to China that begins Tuesday and will include meetings with President Xi Jinping and other officials.

Wikileaks: Optics Be Damned, Hillary Wanted To Give Bill One Last Bite Of the Paid Speech Apple From Wall Street

Matt Vespa / Townhall Tipsheet

Hillary Clinton’s campaign staffers were quite adamant that former President Bill Clinton shouldn’t be allowed to take one last bite of the paid speech apple from Wall Street three days before she officially announced her presidential run, according to the latest string of emails released by Wikileaks. The optics of it all didn’t appear to bother Hillary Clinton, a possible window into the former first lady’s brazen confidence that she was going to win the 2016 election. There appears to be a back and forth between Hillary, longtime aide Huma Abedin, and campaign manager Robby Mook, who understood how big of a mistake it would be for Bill to deliver that speech. In the end, Hillary relented and agreed that Bill should probably cancel his speech appearance (via Huffington Post):

The internal emails reveal Clinton staffers’ attempts to reason with a wealthy political candidate who didn’t appreciate the potential damage that could be done if her husband ? referred to as “WJC” in the communications ? spoke to a prominent Wall Street firm just three days after she formally announced her presidential campaign. 

Staffers knew that Clinton didn’t want to hear it, and maneuvered to make their objections understood.

Podesta lamented that San Bernardino killer was Muslim, “not a guy named Christopher Hayes”
By Robert Spencer / Jihad Watch 

 

Podesta, the Clinton Campaign Chairman, was reflecting the perspective held generally by Leftists: the truth doesn’t fit their narrative. Reality is revoltingly inconvenient, so they are determined to ignore and deny it and substitute a scenario more to their liking: that “right-wing extremists” are the threat, not Islamic jihadists. “WikiLeaks: Podesta lamented that a Muslim, […]
