Trump Aide Finally Spills the Beans on Heidi Cruz

/16 Comments/in , /by

By Christian Datoc. During a Friday interview with MSNBC’s Steve Kornacki, Donald Trump spokesman Katrina Pierson finally spilled the beans on Heidi Cruz . . .

“Spilling the beans is quite simple when it comes to Heidi Cruz,” she told Kornacki. “She is a Bush operative. She worked for the architect of NAFTA, which has killed millions of jobs in this country. She was a member on the Council on Foreign Relations, who in Sen. Cruz’s own words, called a nest of snakes that seeks to undermine national sovereignty. And she’s been working for Goldman Sachs, the same global bank that Ted Cruz left off of his financial disclosure.”

Donald Trump, Ted Cruz Battle Over Delegates, Debates — and Families

By David M Jackson. In the wake of personal accusations against each other, Donald Trump and Ted Cruz opened new lines of attack against each other Sunday on delegates and debates.

Trump accused Cruz of trying to steal Republican convention delegates from him, while the Texas senator said the New York businessman is afraid to debate because he knows so little about the issues.

Responding to reports that Cruz may wind up with more delegates in Louisiana even though Trump took more votes in the state, Trump told ABC’s This Week that “it tells you what a crooked system we have and what a rotten political system we have.”

Attacking both Cruz and the GOP in general, Trump said that “I have a guy going around trying to steal people’s delegates,” and “what’s going on in the Republican Party is a disgrace.” (Read more from “Donald Trump, Ted Cruz Battle Over Delegates, Debates — and Families” HERE)

Trump: Contested Convention, Cruz’s Louisiana Win Proves ‘Crooked System’

/7 Comments/in , /by

Talk of a contested convention and that Ted Cruz won the most delegates in Louisiana’s primary while losing the race in votes is proof of “what a crooked system we have and what a rotten political system we have,” front-runner Donald Trump said Sunday.

“I have millions of votes more than ‘Lyin’ Ted,'” Trump told ABC’s Jonathan Karl on the “This Week” program. “Millions. Millions of votes more. I have many, many delegates more. I’ve won areas and he’s trying steal things because that’s the way Ted works, okay?”

Further, said Trump, the Republican tabulation system is broken and unfair.

“I have so many millions of votes more,” he said. “I’ve brought people into the party by the millions. You understand that. They voted by the millions more. It’s one of the biggest stories in all of politics. And what do I have? I have a guy trying to steal people’s delegates. This is supposed to be America. A free America. This is supposed to be a system of votes. Where you go out, you have elections. Free elections. Not elections where I won. I won Louisiana. And now I hear he’s trying to steal delegates.” (Read more from “Trump: Contested Convention, Cruz’s Louisiana Win Proves ‘Crooked System'” HERE)

After Big Promises, House GOP Facing Reality of Not Passing Budget, and Backlash

/3 Comments/in , /by

Few people in Washington think House Republicans this year will complete a budget . . .

Republicans have batted around dozens of ideas. They’ve conducted closed door meetings. Entertained options. And still, House Republicans aren’t much closer to solving the budget riddle than they were when conversations began over the winter.

“The leadership has been on a listening tour for three months,” said Rep. Dave Brat, R-Va. “We have to go back to constituents and say we made up for the crap sandwich. Made up for the barn cleaning.”

What Brat refers to is a plan President Obama forged last fall with then-House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, to “clean the barn” for the next speaker.

Both houses of Congress approved the package, and Obama signed it into law. Only 79 House GOPers voted in favor of the measure in late October — including new House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis. (Read more from “After Big Promises, House GOP Facing Reality of Not Passing Budget, and Backlash” HERE)

Pakistani Park Suicide Bombing That Killed 65 Targeted Christians

/1 Comment/in , /by

At least 65 people were killed and as many as 280 injured in an explosion at a park in the Pakistani city of Lahore, which, according to the BBC, were Christian families out for the Easter weekend. The bomb went off in the early evening when the park was crowded with families.

The Taliban faction Jamaat-ul-Ahrar has claimed responsibility for the attack. “The target were Christians,” a spokesman for the faction said in a statement. “We want to send this message to Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif that we have entered Lahore. He can do what he wants but he won’t be able to stop us. Our suicide bombers will continue these attacks” . . .

Facebook has apologized for sending out security check notifications to users across the world Sunday after the blast in Pakistan. The feature urges Facebook users to connect with friends and family during disasters to let them know they’re safe. The notification said, “Are you OK? It looks like you’re in the area affected by [the explosion]. Let friends know that you’re safe.” (Read more from “Pakistani Park Suicide Bombing That Killed 65 Targeted Christians” HERE)

The HARD TRUTH the Cuba Trip Exposed About Obama [+video]

/5 Comments/in , /by

Barack Obama was dismissive of the threat ISIS posed, saying he has a lot on his plate, so can’t he go back to his South American tour, please?

Talking to reporters Wednesday, Obama said the terrorist attacks in Brussels did not demonstrate that the Islamic State posed an “existential threat” to national security.

“I addressed this issue a little bit at the baseball game when I was interviewed by ESPN,” the president explained, “but let me reiterate: Groups like ISIL can’t destroy us. They can’t defeat us,” he said, the Washington Free Beacon is reporting. “They can’t produce anything. They’re not an existential threat to us” . . .

“We see high-profile attacks in Europe, but they’re also killing Muslims throughout the Middle East, people who are innocent … people who are guilty only of worshipping Islam in a different way than this organization.”

He then left to do the tango with a scantily-clad woman. (Read more from “The HARD TRUTH the Cuba Trip Exposed About Obama” HERE)

Could Trump Turn New York Red?

/1 Comment/in , /by

Donald Trump has made it clear that he thinks he can win New York in a general election match-up against Hillary Clinton, the former senator from the Empire State.

Trump, the billionaire businessman who resides in New York City and has a number of properties dotting the streets of the Big Apple, has repeatedly said he thinks the traditional blue state is very much in play . . .

For better or worse, the Republican front-runner is associated with Gotham. Even Republican rival Ted Cruz (R-TX) has tried to define Trump as a Yankee with “New York values,” while this week labeling him a “New York bully.”

Democrats insist there’s no way the state will go red in 2016.

They say Trump’s outsized presence in New York — which includes his business deals, relationships and branding on buildings like the famed Trump Tower — will not be enough to deliver the liberal state to Republicans. (Read more from “Could Trump Turn New York Red?” HERE)

Glenn Beck: Ted Cruz ‘Anointed for This Time,’ Walks Back Blast of Christians Supporting Trump

/5 Comments/in , /by

Chastened by negative public reaction to his recent comments that “real Christians” don’t support Donald Trump and “all throughout the South the Evangelicals are not listening to their God,” radio talk show host Glenn Beck is walking back his criticism of Christians who support the New York City billionaire and GOP frontrunner.

But now he’s claiming that Sen. Ted Cruz, whom he has endorsed for President, “was anointed for this time.”

On Friday, less than 24 hours after he proclaimed on his television program that “no real Christian says ‘I want that guy’” Donald Trump, Beck issued an apology in an article posted on his website.

“I’d like to apologize for any of the comments that I’ve made that offended anyone’s religious sensibilities or implied that I thought you weren’t good Christians,” Beck wrote in the article that appears to be an edited version from the transcript of his lengthy monologue on his radio program Friday.

“If that’s what I had said, but that’s not what I said,” he added as a qualifier to his apology. (Read more from “Glenn Beck: Ted Cruz ‘Anointed for This Time,’ Walks Back Blast of Christians Supporting Trump” HERE)

Polar Vortex to Plunge Cold Into Midwestern, Eastern US in Early April

/3 Comments/in , /by

Arctic air will plunge into much of the central and eastern United States, as the polar vortex shifts its position during early April.

Following a pattern favoring more warm days than cold days into next week, a change will likely bring record cold to parts of the Midwest and East . . .

“From Sunday, April 3, through Monday, April 4, temperatures will be below-average from the northern Plains to the mid-Atlantic coast,” Lundberg said. “We expect nighttime temperatures to drop near the freezing mark as far south as the Tennessee Valley.”

Temperatures will average 15-30 degrees Fahrenheit below normal with the core of the cold air directed at the North Central states. Normal highs during the first week of April are in the lower to middle 50s in Minneapolis, Chicago and Detroit and in the 60s from Kansas City, Missouri, to Nashville and Cincinnati.

“The intense cold could impact play for opening day MLB games in Pittsburgh and Kansas City, Missouri, on Sunday, as well as games elsewhere in the Midwest and Northeast on Monday,” according to AccuWeather Lead Long-Range Meteorologist Paul Pastelok.

/6 Comments/in , /by

An Easter egg hunt descended into chaos on Saturday after parents in Orange, Connecticut, stormed the field.

Children as young as four were trampled by adults in a rampage to steal buckets and grab as many of the 9,000 hidden eggs as possible from the third annual free event at the PEZ headquarters.

One four-year-old son was left ‘bloody’ on the sports field and a two-year-old girl was shoved into the mud, witnesses claimed.

A horrified parent described the scene as ‘an angry mob of chaos’ with ‘not one toddler hunting for eggs’ among the crowds of adults . . .

She added: ‘My toddler that was standing with her brothers were shoved into the field and went with the flow. By that time it didn’t matter. I had to yell GO to my boys because it was like an angry mob of chaos.
