www.dailywire.com/news/30361/media-hides-eric-schneidermans-political-ryan-saavedra?ampMedia Hides Eric Schneiderman's Political Affiliation by RYAN SAAVEDRA May 7, 2018 On Monday, New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman resigned after multiple women came forward and accused him of violent physical abuse, and from the way many media outlets reported the story, readers wouldn't know that Schneiderman is a Democrat. Schneiderman's political affiliation is important enough that the original source of the story— The New Yorker, which is a left-leaning publication — mentioned in the first two lines of its report that Schneiderman is a "liberal Democratic champion of women’s rights." The Hill's Julia Manchester failed to identify Schneiderman's political affiliation anywhere in her report, which was also posted at MSN and was the report that Facebook linked to on their trending now section. web.archive.org/web/20180508014105/http://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/386609-multiple-women-accuse-ny-attorney-general-of-physical-misconductThe Washington Post's Marwa Eltagouri and Mark Berman waited until the last paragraph in their report to inform readers that Eric Schneiderman is a Democrat. Politico's Laura Nahmias failed to identify Schneiderman's political affiliation anywhere in her report. CNN's Sophie Tatum waited until the 12th and final paragraph in her report to inform readers of Schneiderman's political affiliation. CNN also did not give the story prime placement on their website as the network prioritized a tweet from Trump over the allegations of a top Democrat beating and threatening women. CNN www.dailywire.com/file/cnnCNN's Brian Stelter also conveniently failed to report Schneiderman's political affiliation in his "Reliable Sources" newsletter. The New York Times and the Associated Press both waited until the eighth paragraph in their reports to identify Schneiderman as a Democrat.

Mika Brzezinski seemed to forget that New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman is at the center of a physical abuse scandal involving multiple women. She and cohost Joe Scarborough tried to turn the accusations against Schneiderman on President Trump on “Morning Joe” Tuesday. Schneiderman is currently the cornerstone of a scandal in which multiple women have accused him of physical abuse including slapping women in the face, threatening to kill women if they spoke up, and choking women in bed, among other heinous actions. The former New York Attorney General submitted his resignation hours after an expose in The New Yorker surfaced. In a mix of hypocritical statements and actions, Schneiderman was at the forefront of the Harvey Weinstein accusations, announcing a lawsuit against the movie mogul’s company while claiming to be a #MeToo champion.

dailycaller.com/2018/05/08/cuomo-trump-voters-looking-for-someone-to-help/CNN’s Chris Cuomo gave an awkward explanation Tuesday morning of why people voted for Donald Trump in the 2016 election. If Donald Trump were running for pastor, it doesn’t happy that way, but if he were running for a position where they were valuing the morality, valuing the decency, valuing how he treats other people, they might have different feelings about it.” “We’re putting him into the swamp. Who are we going to put in the swamp? The cleanest person, the person who we revere? No, not the right agent for our cause,” he stated. “You need to understand your interconnections and where your fellow Americans are. You can’t just write off everything you don’t like on Twitter as being a bot.” Cuomo explained that a “lot of these people are just dealing with real hard needs in their lives that are not unlike from anybody else’s, and they’re looking for someone to help.” “That’s how they arrived at Donald Trump,” he continued. “You may not like it but that’s the truth.”

www.yahoo.com/news/connecticut-electoral-college-votes-national-112753194.htmlConnecticut’s legislature has passed a bill that would give the state’s Electoral College votes to the presidential candidate who wins the popular vote nationally. The state Senate voted 21-14 on Saturday to join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, which includes 10 states and the District of Columbia. The state House passed the measure last week, 77 to 73. The compact requires its members to cast their Electoral College ballots for the presidential candidate who wins the national popular vote. The agreement goes into effect once states representing at least 270 electoral votes — the number needed for a candidate to win the presidency — signs the compact. Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy (D) has promised to sign the legislation committing his state to the interstate agreement. Once he does so, the compact will have 172 electoral votes. California, Hawaii, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington and the District of Columbia have already signed the accord. ... Interesting bit of Constitutional law here: No State shall...enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power...-- US Constitution 10:3:1

www.theroot.com/cynthia-nixon-catches-heat-for-calling-cannabis-license-1825850510/ampIn an interview with Forbes magazine Saturday, Cynthia Nixon, the former Sex and the City star and current New York gubernatorial candidate, told the outlet that communities of color most devastated by decades of the country’s war on drugs should get first priority when it comes to licenses to sell legal cannabis. “Now that cannabis is exploding as an industry, we have to make sure that those communities that have been harmed and devastated by marijuana arrests get the first shot at this industry,” Nixon told Forbes. “We [must] prioritize them in terms of licenses. It’s a form of reparations.” The comments have drawn criticism from several prominent black leaders and organizations for conflating reparations—in this case, government repayment for hundreds of years of stolen and exploited black labor—with equitable participation in the cannabis industry. The Rev. Al Sharpton, Manhattan Democratic Party Chairman Keith Wright and Black Lives Matter of Greater New York all spoke out against Nixon’s comments, the New York Daily News reports. “I’m for legalizing marijuana and I like Cynthia Nixon but putting pot shops in our communities is not reparations,” Sharpton wrote on Twitter Monday morning, adding that health care and education were more suitable points of focus. “It does a disservice to our community for her to play into harmful stereotypes of African Americans as drug users and dealers,” wrote Black Lives Matter of Greater New York in a statement. “And it does an even greater disservice to the enduring consequences of both slavery and Jim Crow and the inequities these systems of oppression perpetuated to claim that legalizing marijuana would somehow erase that experience.” The group called on Nixon to apologize for the comments. Before the Forbes interview, Nixon had attended the NYC Cannabis Parade. During a speech, Nixon highlighted the disproportionate arrest rates for people of color for drug violations.

www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/commentary/ct-perspec-socialism-democrats-hillary-clinton-millennials-0508-20180507-story,amp.html The Democrats' frightening embrace of socialism ...... oup Speaking at an event last week in New York City, Hillary Clinton said something interesting about Democrats today and their lurch to the left. Clinton said being a capitalist “probably” hurt her when campaigning against democratic socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., in 2016. Think about that. Part of the reason so many Republicans are frozen like deer in headlights when it comes to President Donald Trump is the horror of thinking about Clinton as president. It is stunning to realize how in today's Democratic Party, being a capitalist is something one must either apologize for or at least give qualified acceptance. Talk about nostalgia for the 1950s. It seems that socialism is making a comeback. I think if Bill Clinton had been asked the same question Hillary Clinton was, he would have thought it was a softball and proceeded to give a valuable history lesson on the negative impact of socialism versus the global benefits of capitalism. Of course, Hillary Clinton’s instinct is to pander and hedge, but it is nevertheless revealing that she thought she had to do so to keep from alienating the socialists. Democrats want to talk about Republicans living in the past, but the new progressives, as they like to call themselves, are in fact a lot like the old socialists. They want free college, free cash, free health care, new mandates for this and that, and so on. The latest progressive policy du jour gaining traction among Democratic Party presidential hopefuls is the so-called “job guarantee.” Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., announced one, Sanders has one in the works and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., says she supports the idea too. Yet there are some signs of intellectual honesty on the left. Kevin Drum, a liberal blogger for the progressive gospel Mother Jones, thinks the jobs guarantee is a ludicrous idea: “Even our lefty comrades in social democratic Europe don’t guarantee jobs for everyone. It would cost a fortune; it would massively disrupt the private labor market; it would almost certainly tank productivity; and it’s unlikely in the extreme that the millions of workers in this program could ever be made fully competent at their jobs.” Well said. If Democrats go down this road, their only way forward will be to one-up each other in every primary election. Clueless liberals such as Facebook co-founder Chris Hughes want to guarantee $500 per month for every American earning less than $50,000 a year. But why not $550? Or should we go ahead and call it an even $600? A guaranteed monthly stipend would become the floor. And every subsequent election would be a referendum on whether voters want to support the candidate promising the larger pay raise from Washington. Is that where we want our elections to go? Anyway, Clinton’s admission of the Democrats’ matter-of-fact acceptance of socialism couldn’t have been any timelier. Saturday marked the bicentennial of Karl Marx’s birth, and as Paul Kengor reminded us in his smart Wall Street Journal commentary last week, Marx’s communist philosophy “set the stage ... for the greatest ideological massacres in history.” Marx’s rebuke of capitalism and individual property rights inspired the likes of Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotsky, Mao Zedong, the Kim family, the Castros and countless others to wage mass murder against millions of innocents. But never mind that, at least according to many of today’s millennial voters. According to the 2017 YouGov-Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation Report on U.S. Attitudes Toward Socialism, more millennials would prefer to live in socialist countries than they would in capitalist countries. That fact reveals a powerful force shifting today’s Democratic Party. Barack “you didn't build that” Obama and his contempt for private business is starting to seem quaint. It certainly means every Democrat running for president in 2020 will be asked if they favor socialism or capitalism. It will be interesting to see if they blush, stammer and wince, or if any of them will have the confidence to give a robust endorsement of free enterprise and a historically accurate critique of socialism vs. capitalism. I’m not holding my breath. Rather than a wholesale capitulation to the shallow-minded embrace of socialism, I hope at least a few Democrats will have the courage to teach millennials and others the history of socialism’s debilitating, murderous past and the historic human advancement that has been produced by a free market. Remember, socialism is just a kinder, gentler version of communism. Democrats should think twice before they abandon capitalism.

www.dailywire.com/news/30518/ouch-cnns-may-ratings-crash-something-behold-amanda-prestigiacomo?ampIt looks like all that porn coverage isn't resulting in the hoped-for climax for CNN's ratings. So far, the left-wing network's ratings for the month of May have dropped by at least 20 percent over last year's numbers, whereas their competitors' numbers have largely remained steady. According to Variety, CNN averaged 1.12 million total viewers in 2017, with 399,000 demo viewers, behind both Fox News and MSNBC. As reported by John Nolte, the average total-viewer ratings for May of this year dropped a stunning 23%, at just 859,000. And it gets worse with their average demo-viewer numbers: CNN took a whopping 29% hit with only 399,000. Ouch. Making matters worse for CNN, their ratings nose-dive is not occurring across the board; it's specific to their network. "By comparison, year-over-year in primetime, Fox News is up 5 percent in total viewers (2.24 million compared to 2.359 million) and experience only a 1 percent drop in the demo (453K compared to 448K)," notes Nolte. "MSNBC enjoyed a 4 percent increase in total viewers (1.69 million compared to 1.755 million) and a 16 percent drop in the demo (417K compared to 352K)." As reported by The Daily Wire last week, CNN interviewed Michael Avenatti 59 times in less than two months (from March 7 to April 30). Avenatti is the lawyer to Stormy Daniels, AKA Stephanie Clifford, a porn star who claims she had consensual sex with Donald Trump back in 2006, when Melania was pregnant. And Avenatti's still making regular appearances on the network into the month of May. Apparently, the viewers are not aroused by all the porn coverage broken up by intermittent Russian hysteria sessions. CNN can't be ignorant to this reality, but it seems narrative and agenda trump ratings, even if that means elevating a porn star as a prime player for the Democrat Party.

dailycaller.com/2018/05/11/california-bill-washington-lincoln-holidays-communist/The California Assembly discussed Thursday a bill that would replace Abraham Lincoln or George Washington’s birthday with International Socialist Workers’ Day as a paid holiday. California Democrat Assemblyman Miguel Santiago introduced Bill AB-3042, which would allow schools to replace Washington Day and Lincoln Day with Presidents’ Day and install an “International Workers’ Day” — conventionally known as “May Day” — as a second holiday. “I’m aghast that a bill like this would be able to get through committee,” California Republican Assemblyman Matthew Harper said to the Assembly. “Are we in competition to be the laughing stock of the United States?” “Are we going that far to the left?” Harper asked. “This is ridiculous; this is insane; this is un-American. And for folks who think that the U.S. won the Cold War with the Soviet Union, this makes it sound like we’re going in the other direction — that indeed California is kowtowing to the Soviet domination of the Cold War.”

The New York Post reports: A jury of seven women and five men found Silver, 74, guilty of all seven counts against him, including two counts of honest services mail fraud and money laundering. "Sheldon Silver repeatedly used his enormous public power for his own enormous private gain," prosecutor Tatiana R. Martins said.

www.dailywire.com/news/30545/former-obama-officials-nyt-european-countries-ben-shapiroOn Friday, The New York Times printed a piece from Steven Simon, President Obama’s former National Security Council’s senior director for Middle East and North Africa, and Jonathan Stevenson, a director for political-military affairs in the Middle East and North Africa for the Obama NSC. That piece explicitly called on the Europeans to undercut President Trump. “Europe Doesn’t Have to Be Trump’s Doormat,” these two former Obama officials suggested. This follows on former Obama Secretary of State John Kerry galumphing around the planet trying to gin up support for the Iran deal. So it’s not really a shock. Still, the spectacle of former Obama officials openly appealing to foreign countries to undermine Trumpian policy is rather amazing. They begin by suggesting that Trump had somehow trampled on “European leaders, who urged Mr. Trump to exercise restraint in the interest of international security and multilateralism.” That’s odd, since President Obama trampled on America’s Congress, which didn’t approve the Iran deal, and America’s public, which hated it according to polls. But politics has its winners and its losers. The authors then call on the Europeans to join the #Resistance. Notwithstanding an abundance of kvetching, European powers have not yet shown Mr. Trump that he has anything to fear from ignoring their wishes. Since taking office, Mr. Trump has treated Europe like a doormat, questioning the value of NATO, ridiculing the mission of the European Union and dismissing European exhortations on policy matters.

John McCain's (R-AZ) deteriorating health. Wallace's comment suggesting violence on a member of the Trump administration comes after a report surfaced on Thursday that claims a staffer responded to McCain's failure to support CIA Director nominee Gina Haspel by saying, "He's dying anyway."

Heilemann's comments came after MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace suggested she wanted to choke Sanders before she compared her to a former Saddam Hussein official who once attacked a top U.S. diplomat for being "a known Jew." "I don't know the difference anymore between Baghdad Bob and Sarah Sanders," Wallace said, referring to Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf, Iraq's former information minister who was known for making blatantly false statements.

On the Stormy Daniels front: dailycaller.com/2018/05/13/michael-avenatti-past-history/Many of the developments surrounding Stormy Daniels’ lawsuit against President Donald Trump have focused on the business dealings of attorney Michael Cohen, but an investigation by The Daily Caller News Foundation reveals that Daniels’ counsel, Michael Avenatti, has his own questionable history. Avenatti’s past is littered with lawsuits, jilted business partners and bankruptcy filings. People who have worked with the lawyer described him to TheDCNF as ruthless, greedy and unbothered by ethical questions. Dillanos Coffee CEO David Morris claimed last Tuesday that Avenatti never paid him for over $160,000 worth of coffee that Dillanos supplied to Avenatti’s company. “So @stormydaniels hot shot lawyer Michael owes my small company @dillanos $160,179 for coffee,” Morris wrote on Twitter. “He talks a big talk about integrity. We trusted him.” “Michael Avenatti owned Tully’s coffee. They were a large chain of coffee shops. We are a wholesale roaster. We supplied his coffee. The $160,000 represented only a few weeks worth of beans. We cut him off when he wouldn’t pay, he had to close,” Morris explained in a subsequent tweet.

So, he now threatens to sue the reporters: dailycaller.com/2018/05/14/michael-avenatti-threatens-daily-caller-news-foundation/Michael Avenatti, the lawyer for adult film star Stormy Daniels in her legal battles against President Donald Trump, threatened to sue reporters at The Daily Caller News Foundation for writing about his legal and business history. Avenatti tried to claim his uninvited email was off record, even though TheDCNF never agreed to those terms. “Let me be clear. If you and your colleagues do not stop with the hit pieces that are full of lies and defamatory statements, I will have no choice but to sue each of you and your publication for defamation,” Avenatti wrote in an email to TheDCNF. “During that process, we will expose your publication for what it truly is. We will also recover significant damages against each of you that participated personally. So if I were you, I would tell Mr. Trump to find someone else to fabricate things about me.” “If you think I’m kidding, you really don’t know anything about me. This is the last warning,” he warned. Avenatti’s threats came after TheDCNF wrote a story on the lawyer’s questionable history. (RELATED: With Avenatti In The Spotlight, His Own Questionable Past Emerges)
