Donald Trump on George Bush – “The World Trade Center came down during his reign”

In an interview with Bloomberg on Friday, Donald Trump, the current leader in the Republican race for president, put the blame for the September 11th attacks directly on the shoulders of then President, George W Bush.

“He was President,” Trump said. “Blame him, or don’t blame him, but he was President. The World Trade Center came down during his reign.”

Breaking News: Donald Trump spoke the truth when he made that statement. And it leaves me to wonder why the current leader of the Republican Party will throw George Bush under the bus. We all know that a vast majority of Republicans believe that George Bush was not even the President when the world trade Center came tumbling down – an attack on this country that killed almost 3,000 Americans. What will cause Donald Trump to speak the truth about George W Bush’s failure to protect this country?

My take:

I think Donald Trump is really trying to get himself out of this presidential race he’s in. In the beginning, this was all a joke for Trump but Republicans  started believing his nonsense and his poll numbers shot up. His intentions, I think, were never to lead in the polls the way he has. But the Republican voters love this man and he cannot figure out a way to shake them off and get out of this race.

So Donald Trump is doing all he can to get Republicans to hate him. He spoke bad about John McCain, he spoke bad about women, he spoke profanity at a campaign event and speaking about campaign events,  his campaign events has nothing to do with policies, but about his poll numbers.  And just when all the pundits say his last statement did him in and wrote him off, more and more  Republicans jumped on the trump-wagon.

What other way can Donald Trump get out of this presidential race? Well, by throwing the anointed one of the Republican party  under the bus of course.

By coming down this hard on George Bush, Donald Trump is sure to lose some in the Republican who think George Bush – their Supreme Leader – did nothing wrong and protected this country in his eight years in office. And maybe then with the Republican base is against him, Donald Trump can finally withdraw from the race and concentrate on selling his hats and books.

X- Rated Sounds Broadcasted Over Speaker System at Target Store – Video

“I felt violated, and my body said wait a minute, this ain’t right. So I was uneasy,” said shopper Chris Minor,  who then recorded 3 minutes of the ordeal on his cell phone. “I thought it may have been Halloween related, maybe an employee playing games, but this was rated-X material, which made me feel very uncomfortable. I was taken aback, very frustrated, and appalled, and angered by what I heard,”

Bernie Sanders Rejects Contribution from Pharmaceutical CEO

Bernie Sanders is always bragging that he is not financed by big donors and the lobbyists crowd, but instead by the grassroots with the average donor giving around $30. And by the looks of things, Sanders is apparently telling the truth.

 The man who has become the public face of rising drug prices says he has donated to presidential candidate Bernie Sanders — who has been bashing Big Pharma on the campaign trail — to try to get a meeting so the two can talk it out.

Sanders isn’t interested. His campaign said Thursday that he’s giving the money to a Washington health clinic instead — and the drug executive isn’t getting the meeting.

Fox News CIA Expert Arrested for Lying About His CIA Expertise

Only in the world of Fox News would you find a regular guest to the network getting indicted for lying about who he professed to be.

According to the Huffington Post, Wayne Simmons — who was often identified as a “terrorism analyst” by Fox News — was indicted by a federal grand jury in connection to alleged misconduct, including making false statements to the government, major fraud and wire fraud. The 62-year-old often touted his CIA record on the cable news channel, claiming to have worked overseas for the agency as an “Outside Paramilitary Special Operations Officer” from 1973 to 2000.

According to a press release from the U.S. Attorney’s office in the Eastern District of Virginia, Simmons “used that false claim in an attempt to obtain government security clearances and work as a defense contractor, including at one point successfully getting deployed overseas as an intelligence advisor to senior military personnel.”

Principal Fired After Appearing in Twerk-Filled Trey Songz Video

Esther Adler-O’Keefe, the principal at Southampton High School, was just trying to reach new kids through music when she made her appearance in JR’s “Best Friends” music video, featuring Trey Songz.

In the video, the principal is with her husband and leaving for vacation. Apparently leaving the rapper in charge, the principal tells JR to have a good time, but she warns, “enjoy yourself. Just remember, security’s here.”

After the couple walks out the door, the twerking began in earnest. And the content of that video along with the principal’s association with it cost her dearly!

“The video in question showcases behaviors and language use that is not promoted by the Southampton School District,” the superintendent Dr. Scott Farina tells the Southampton Press. “In fact, we actively teach our students the importance of good character and making smart choices. Additionally, this is not representative of who we are as a district, nor of our students and staff.” Twerking does not fall under “smart choices” in Southampton, Long Island, apparently.

Money Calls – Ben Carson Suspends Campaign to Sell his New Book

You wouldn’t have Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson to kick around any more… well, at least for the next two weeks. The Republican is suspending his campaign to promote his new book.

Can you say priorities?

According to ABC News, Carson has put his public campaign events on hold to focus on fundraising events and stops to promote his new book, A More Perfect Union. He is scheduled to hold book signings next week in Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska and Iowa.

Carson’s last public event was a health care town hall meeting in Des Moines, Iowa, on Oct. 2. He will not appear at a public campaign event again until the next Republican presidential debate in Boulder, Colorado, on Oct. 28.

Carson’s campaign staff will not travel with him while he’s on his book tour to avoid the unsavory image that he’s using his presidential bid to make money, a spokesman told ABC. But there are legal issues at hand, too. Federal law prohibits candidates from using campaign resources to profit personally.

ESPN’s Scott Van Pelt – Lamar Odom is More than a Reality TV Star

Lamar Odom is currently hospitalized. He was found unconscious and unresponsive in a Brothel earlier this week. But the way Odom is described in the media as a reality television star and married to one of the Kardashians, is not going over too well with a host at ESPN.

Scott Van Pelt from ESPN’s Sports Center took offense to the way Odom is being portrayed. He made his feelings known in this statement;

I have to remind myself there are people who think of Jerry Rice and Emmitt Smith as ‘those guys who were on Dancing With the Stars.’ Not everybody views things through the prism of sports the way I do, and I presume you do as well, given that you’re watching this show. I mean, those are two of the best who ever played football, but if you frame things from the People Magazine perspective, it’s a different world.

To that end, I saw a tweet from rapper Bun B that got to me. It was about Lamar Odom, who fights for his life in a Vegas hospital. His plight was described across entertainment-based shows this way, and I quote, ‘Kardashian reality star in a coma.’ Now I can’t quote Bun B directly, but my feelings mirrored his — Kardashian reality star? No, no, no, no. Lamar Odom, unlike those for whom fame is oxygen, whose fame comes in the absence of accomplishment, his fame was earned: as Sixth Man of the Year, as a multiple NBA champion, as the result of his significant role with the Los Angeles Lakers teams and being a beloved NBA teammate and peer. Everyone across the league, it seems, loves the man. To read the tweets from the stars still in the league was to feel genuine anguish for a brother who has had an unspeakably difficult road, and who has struggled mightily to find his footing, post-NBA. “Passed out in a brothel” makes for a hell of a headline, and I’m sure quite a juicy episode of TV, but stripped to the foundation, it’s just incredibly sad. All of it. A man who’s dealt with so much loss, unable to find his way, who’s unfortunate reality becomes a plot line in alleged reality.

I understand not everyone watches sports, but ‘Kardashian reality star?’ His name is Lamar Odom, and we knew it, long before he got married on a TV show that we don’t watch.

Another Republican Confess – Benghazi Committee Created to Attack Clinton

For those of you who think Kevin McCarthy misspoke when he admitted that the Benghazi Committee’s only goal was to bring down Hillary Clinton’s approval numbers, what will you think if I told you that another Republican congressman is backing up McCarthy’s statement?

Well, another Republican congressman is backing up McCarthy’s statement.

In an interview with WIBX 950 in New York on Wednesday, moderate Republican Rep. Richard Hanna said House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy was speaking the truth when he said this month that the committee had successfully injured Clinton.

 “Sometimes the biggest sin you can commit in D.C. is to tell the truth,” Hanna told the upstate New York radio station. “This may not be politically correct, but I think that there was a big part of this investigation that was designed to go after people and an individual, Hillary Clinton.”

I know,  I know. It’s hard to find one Republican in Congress capable of telling the truth, but finding two? This is totally unheard of and I understand your skepticism. But it’s true. The rest of America knew that this committee was nothing more than a very expensive political sham and now, one by one, Republicans are finally admitting it too, that the Benghazi Committee was just dirty politics.

Hillary Clinton is scheduled to appear before this fake committee next week. There will be fireworks. Consider yourselves warned.

Rush Limbaugh Longs for the Soup Lines of The Great Depression – Audio

He has everything he can ever want now, and for generations to come. Starving or having to go to a soup line will never happen to Rush Limbaugh. But hearing him talk about how things were in 1933 as compared to how they are now, you get the feeling that Rush would prefer seeing soup lines make a comeback, would prefer seeing other Americans starve, jobless and homeless.

After rambling on about the unemployment and homelessness then and now, and what was different then as oppose to now, Rush concluded;

In 1933, if you were out of work, you didn’t eat. You had to stand in a soup line and depend on charity. In 2015, you can be among the 94 million not working and have a roof over your head, have a cell phone, a car, your air conditioned home probably– or your home is probably air conditioned and, you’re eating as much as you want.

He then ask himself, “What you want people to starve?” He mockingly answered, “No.” He ended his diatribe with, ” If you can eat, and have a house, and a big screen, and a cell phone without working, who in the world is paying for it? Back during the Great Depression, if you couldn’t pay for it, you didn’t have it.”

Listen To The Interview Trump’s People Claimed Never Happened – AUDIO

BIRCH RUN, MI - AUGUST 11: Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump speaks at a press conference before delivering the keynote address at the Genesee and Saginaw Republican Party Lincoln Day Event August 11, 2015 in Birch Run, Michigan. This is Trump's first campaign event since his Republican debate last week. (Photo by Bill Pugliano/Getty Images)

Now this story is chalking up to be a bit of a controversy. A radio host in Atlanta claimed he interviewed Donald Trump but was told not to ask the Republican presidential candidate any policy questions.

Steve McCoy, hosts of The News Radio 106.7 Morning Show With Steve McCoy and Cheryl White, said that Trump’s handlers barred him from asking policy questions because they say, Trump’s policies weren’t “set in stone!”

“It came with some restrictions,” McCoy said, explaining the terms of the interview. “I couldn’t ask anything about his current policies, and they had the right to X out any questions that I did ask, and we got through about three minutes of it.”

When asked again if he couldn’t ask about policies, McCoy replied, “No, ‘cause he said those policies — well, he didn’t say it, his handlers said — the policies aren’t set in stone yet, and I guess we can kind of understand that, they got a year to go.”

But Trump’s people are adamant that the interview never took place.

A lawyer for the Trump campaign disputes radio host Steve McCoy’s account, telling BuzzFeed News that Trump did not do an interview with the Georgia radio host this week. The lawyer, Donald McGahn, says McCoy admitted to him the interview took place a year ago.

Hope Hicks, a spokeswoman for the Trump campaign slammed McCoy at length in a statement to BuzzFeed News.

“This interview did not take place. It is a fraud and/or a spoof. The Trump campaign has never communicated with this man. He said Mr. Trump spoke to him yesterday prior to the debate, Mr. Trump never spoke to him yesterday or any day before that. The radio host admitted it was a fraud to our attorney, apologized and he is now hiding and not returning anyone’s call. This is representative of the dishonesty Mr. Trump faces from the media.”

And now even the radio station where McCoy works is acting as if they don’t know of any interview. Program Director Greg Tantum, told media outlets that the station is “investigating” the situation. Meanwhile any semblance of an interview by McCoy was removed from the station’s SoundCloud account.

But Buzzfeed was able to capture the interview. Despite the claims from Trump’s people that it never happened, below is a recording of Steve McCoy and someone sounding remarkably like Donald Trump, even sharing some of Trump’s unbearable mannerisms.

Police Tackles Teenager For Attempting to Use ATM Machine – Video

Well, he had to be tackled! Apparently, he does not have the right to use an ATM machine!

On Monday, D.C. Metropolitan Police converged on 18-year-old Jason Goolsby as he stood outside of a bank on Pennsylvania Ave. Goolsby, who was with two friends, ran as the cop cars approached him.

Several blocks away, police detained him. Footage of the event — shot by one of Goolsby’s friends — shows officers two officers pressing the teen into the ground while wrangling his arms behind his back. As Goolsby screams, officers tell him to “stop resisting.” Goolsby’s friend repeatedly tells officers that the teen had done nothing wrong. Officials later detained the videographer for interfering with a police investigation. No charges were filed against either teen.
