I’m a woman — and this is why I voted for Donald Trump | New York Post

Prominent attorney Rosemarie Arnold owns a personal-injury law firm. Here, she explains why she cast her ballot for Donald Trump.I am not a racist or a bully. I have no prejudice against lesbian, gay or transgender people.I am a staunch supporter of women. In fact, I own a law firm full of women lawyers and paralegals who help victims of disability, sexual and other discrimination everyday.I am also a diehard Donald Trump supporter, and I proudly voted for him because he was the better candidate.Donald Trump is intelligent, successful, commanding and well-spoken. He has built an empire.He has no political agenda, and actually hears what his constituents say.His ability to act without owing favors to special-interest groups will aid our economy and our health-care system.I, too, have been offended by some of the words Trump has spoken in the past, before he had political aspirations — but most of us can admit we’ve said things in private that we wouldn’t want made public.Donald Trump will excel as a president when he surrounds himself with experienced, intelligent people.I know that women worry about their right to choose. Trump does not advocate outlawing those rights. He simply wants to put that decision in the states’ hands.I could not vote for Hillary Clinton, although I believe that a woman one day should be president.She’s dishonest and feels that she’s above the law. She’s a career politician and her personal agenda outweighs the good of the country.She has been a public servant for more than 30 years, and during that time I have disagreed with many of her decisions, including her support of the Affordable Care Act.But even beyond her policies, Hillary’s use of her private e-mail server and attempted cover-up, was criminal (in my personal and legal opinion), regardless of whether or not she understood that “C” meant Classified.

The Math: Trump 2016 Would’ve Beaten Obama 2012 | National Review

It’s easy to glance at Tuesday’s popular vote — which, with 92 percent of all precincts reporting, shows Hillary Clinton with six million fewer votes than Barack Obama won in 2012 – and reach the conclusion that Clinton lost the White House because she failed to turn out the Democratic base. But the truth is much more complicated.While she underperformed relative to Obama’s 2012 totals in several Midwestern states — Ohio, Michigan, Iowa, and Wisconsin — Clinton ran virtually even with Obama in the battlegrounds of Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Virginia, Nevada, and New Hampshire. What’s more, she far surpassed Obama’s 2012 vote total in Florida, the country’s biggest swing state. Yet somehow, while Obama carried Florida, Clinton lost it. Which brings us to an important question: Was Donald Trump just good enough to beat a bad Democratic opponent on Tuesday, or does he deserve far more credit? Could he, for instance, have competed with the vaunted Obama machine? The answer, somewhat shockingly, is yes. A review of vote totals in the past two elections reveals that Trump 2016 would have defeated Obama 2012 in the electoral college.(Disclaimer: This obviously is an apples-to-oranges exercise because no two elections are the same, nor are any two electorates. Still, unlike debating whether the 2016 Cubs would defeat the 1927 Yankees, this is not an entirely abstract argument; a comparison of their respective performances in the country’s most competitive states shows Trump edging Obama in a hypothetical head-to-head matchup.)The math might seem impossible. After all, Obama won nearly 66 million votes in 2012; Trump is currently at 59.5 million and should finish around 60 million, which will actually be one million fewer votes than Mitt Romney won. How, then, could Trump have topped Obama in the electoral college? The answer: Republican turnout lagged in certain parts of the country but shot through the roof in the nation’s most critical battleground states.Let’s look at them individually, in descending order by population, and do the electoral-vote math. The 2016 totals aren’t yet final because not all precincts have reported.FLORIDA — 29 EVs — 98 percent reportingObama 2012: 4,235,270Clinton 2016: 4,485,745 Romney 2012: 4,162,081Trump 2016: 4,605,515Conclusion: Trump beats Obama by some 370,000 votes and wins Florida. (Note: Clinton herself won 250,000 more votes in Florida than Obama did in 2012.) PENNSYLVANIA — 20 EVs — 97 percent reportingObama 2012: 2,907,448Clinton 2016: 2,844,705 Romney 2012: 2,619,583Trump 2016: 2,912,941 Conclusion: Trump squeezes past Obama by a margin of some 5,000 votes and wins Pennsylvania. (Note: Clinton runs about 60,000 votes behind Obama, but would’ve had more than enough to defeat Romney in 2012.) OHIO — 18 EVs – 94 percent reportingObama 2012: 2,697,260Clinton 2016: 2,317,001 Romney 2012: 2,593,779Trump 2016: 2,771,984 Conclusion: Trump edges Obama by roughly 75,000 votes and wins Ohio. (Note: Clinton’s worst battleground state showing was Ohio, winning 380,000 [!] fewer votes than Obama.) Stop right there and crunch the numbers: Florida (29) + Pennsylvania (20) + Ohio (18) = 67 EVs.Romney finished with 206 EVs. By protecting all of those, and then taking 67 from Obama, Trump would hit 273 and win the presidency. The question: Did Trump 2016 defeat Obama 2012 in all of the states Romney won? Yes. Here’s a look at the competitive ones:– NORTH CAROLINA (98 percent reporting): Trump 2,339,603 … Obama 2,178,388– ARIZONA (73 percent reporting): Trump 947,284 … Obama 930,669– GEORGIA (93 percent reporting): Trump 2,068,623 … Obama 1,761,761– UTAH (78 percent reporting): Trump 360,634 … Obama 229,463A review of the Romney 2012 states confirms that Trump, in this hypothetical matchup, would have carried every single one against Obama.It doesn’t matter that Obama would have trounced Trump by nearly 300,000 votes in Michigan; by more than 200,000 in Wisconsin; by 175,000 in Virginia; and by 160,000 in Colorado. It’s similarly meaningless that Obama would have narrowly defeated Trump in Iowa, Nevada, and New Hampshire. The 44th president carried all of those states in 2012, and in this hypothetical contest, he would successfully defend all of them. But it wouldn’t be enough.The electoral college would produce a razor-thin margin: Trump 273, Obama 265.Again, this is an apples-to-oranges exercise. It’s impossible to know how the Obama campaign might have targeted certain voters in a contest against Trump, or whether Trump would have the same success in the three big battleground states against a more formidable opponent. But that’s not the point here; the point is that it’s not entirely fair to blame Clinton for depressing Democratic turnout when she ran even with him in five of the country’s most competitive states and ahead of him in a sixth, Florida, the single biggest swing state — and still lost the electoral college.

BREAKING BOMBSHELL: NYPD Blows Whistle on New Hillary Emails: Money Laundering, Sex Crimes with Children, Child Exploitation, Pay to Play, Perjury | True Pundit

New York Police Department detectives and prosecutors working an alleged underage sexting case against former Congressman Anthony Weiner have turned over a newly-found laptop he shared with wife Huma Abedin to the FBI with enough evidence “to put Hillary (Clinton) and her crew away for life,” NYPD sources told True Pundit.NYPD sources said Clinton’s “crew” also included several unnamed yet implicated members of Congress in addition to her aides and insiders.The NYPD seized the computer from Weiner during a search warrant and detectives discovered a trove of over 500,000 emails to and from Hillary Clinton, Abedin and other insiders during her tenure as secretary of state. The content of those emails sparked the FBI to reopen its defunct email investigation into Clinton on Friday.But new revelations on the contents of that laptop, according to law enforcement sources, implicate the Democratic presidential candidate, her subordinates, and even select elected officials in far more alleged serious crimes than mishandling classified and top secret emails, sources said. NYPD sources said these new emails include evidence linking Clinton herself and associates to:Money launderingChild exploitationSex crimes with minors (children)PerjuryPay to play through Clinton FoundationObstruction of justiceOther felony crimesNYPD detectives and a NYPD Chief, the department’s highest rank under Commissioner, said openly that if the FBI and Justice Department fail to garner timely indictments against Clinton and co- conspirators, NYPD will go public with the damaging emails now in the hands of FBI Director James Comey and many FBI field offices.“What’s in the emails is staggering and as a father, it turned my stomach,” the NYPD Chief said. “There is not going to be any Houdini-like escape from what we found. We have copies of everything. We will ship them to Wikileaks or I will personally hold my own press conference if it comes to that.”The NYPD Chief said once Comey saw the alarming contents of the emails he was forced to reopen a criminal probe against Clinton.“People are going to prison,” he said.Meanwhile, FBI sources said Abedin and Weiner were cooperating with federal agents, who have taken over the non-sexting portions the case from NYPD. The husband-and-wife Clinton insiders  are both shopping for separate immunity deals, sources said.“If they don’t cooperate they are going to see long sentences,” a federal law enforcement source said.NYPD sources said Weiner or Abedin stored all the emails in a massive Microsoft Outlook program on the laptop. The emails implicate other current and former members of Congress and one high-ranking Democratic Senator as having possibly engaged in criminal activity too, sources said.Prosecutors in the office of US Attorney Preet Bharara have issued a subpoena for Weiner’s cell phones and travel records, law enforcement sources confirmed. NYPD said it planned to order the same phone and travel records on Clinton and Abedin, however, the FBI said it was in the process of requesting the identical records. Law enforcement sources are particularly interested in cell phone activity and travel to the Bahamas, U.S. Virgin Islands and other locations that sources would not divulge.The new emails contain travel documents and itineraries indicating Hillary Clinton, President Bill Clinton, Weiner and multiple members of Congress and other government officials accompanied convicted pedophile billionaire Jeffrey Epstein on his Boeing 727 on multiple occasions to his private island in the U.S Virgin Islands, sources said. Epstein’s island has also been dubbed Orgy Island or Sex Slave Island where Epstein allegedly pimps out underage girls and boys to international dignitaries.Both NYPD and FBI sources confirm based on the new emails they now believe Hillary Clinton traveled as Epstein’s guest on at least six occasions, probably more when all the evidence is combed, sources said. Bill Clinton, it has been confirmed in media reports spanning recent years, that he too traveled with Epstein over 20 times to the island.Laptop Also Unveiled More Classified, Top Secret BreachesAccording to other uncovered emails, Abedin and Clinton both sent and received thousands of classified and top secret documents to personal email accounts including Weiner’s unsecured campaign web site which is managed by Democratic political consultants in Washington D.C.Weiner maintained little known email accounts that the couple shared on the website anthonyweiner.com. Weiner, a former seven-term Democratic Congressman from New York, primarily used that domain to campaign for Congress and for his failed mayoral bid of New York City.At one point, FBI sources said, Abedin and Clinton’s classified and top secret State Department documents and emails were stored in Weiner’s email on a server shared with a dog grooming service and a western Canadian bicycle shop.However, Weiner and Abedin, who is Hillary Clinton’s closest personal aide, wer

Clinton advisor Podesta is a sex magic witch: Drudge Report via Infowars via Wikileaks (seems legit) / Boing Boing

onpodestasexmagick.html”>

John Podesta practices Aleister Crowley-inspired blood sex semen magic, reports Drudge Report, citing Infowars, which cites Wikileaks. They just went Full Drudge.You never go full Drudge. Here’s a chunk of the Infowars item, citing Julian Assange and Wikileaks:“SPIRIT COOKING”: CLINTON CAMPAIGN CHAIRMAN PRACTICES BIZARRE OCCULT RITUALMenstrual blood, semen and breast milk: Most bizarre Wikileaks revelation yetIn what is undoubtedly the most bizarre Wikileaks revelation to date, Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta was invited to a “spirit cooking dinner” by performance artist Marina Abramovic, to take part in an occult ritual founded by Satanist Aleister Crowley.What is “spirit cooking”?Spirit cooking refers to “a sacrament in the religion of Thelema which was founded by Aleister Crowley” and involves an occult performance during which menstrual blood, breast milk, urine and sperm are used to create a “painting”.According to Marina Abramovic, if the ritual is performed in an art gallery, it is merely art, but if the ritual is performed privately, then it represents an intimate spiritual ceremony.The video embedded above depicts the bizarre nature of the ceremony. Abramovic mixes together thickly congealed blood as the “recipe” for the “painting,” which is comprised of the words, “With a sharp knife cut deeply into the middle finger of your left hand eat the pain.”The ceremony is, “meant to symbolize the union between the microcosm, Man, and the macrocosm, the Divine, which is a representation of one of the prime maxims in Hermeticism “As Above, So Below.”“Abramovic is known for her often-gory art that confronts pain and ritual. Her first performance involved repeatedly, stabbing herself in her hands. The next performance featured her throwing her nails, toenails, and hair into a flaming five-point star — which she eventually jumped inside of, causing her to lose consciousness,” writes Cassandra Fairbanks.Another image shows Abramovic posing with a bloody goat’s head – a representation of the occult symbol Baphomet.Spirit cooking is also an “occult practice used during sex cult rituals, as explained in the book “Spirit cooking with essential aphrodisiac recipes,” notes Mike Cernovich.The revelation that John Podesta, Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman, is presumably interested in weird, gory occult ceremonies was too juicy for even Wikileaks to ignore.“The Podestas’ “Spirit Cooking” dinner? It’s not what you think. It’s blood, sperm and breastmilk. But mostly blood,” the organization tweeted.

Julian Assange Says Trump Won’t Be Allowed To Win, “Clinton And ISIS Are Funded By The Same Money” | Zero Hedge

One day after Julian Assange officially revealed for the first time that the source of hacked Podesta and DNC emails in Wikileaks’ possession is not Russia, in the second excerpt from the John Pilger Special, to be broadcast by RT on Saturday Julian Assange accuses Hillary Clinton of misleading Americans about the true scope of Islamic State’s support from Washington’s Middle East allies.As previously reported, in an August 17, 2014 email made public WikiLeaks last month, Hillary Clinton, who had served as secretary of state until the year before, urges John Podesta, then an advisor to Barack Obama, to “bring pressure” on Qatar and Saudi Arabia, “which are providing clandestine financial and logistic support to ISIS and other radical Sunni groups.””I think this is the most significant email in the whole collection,” Assange, whose whistleblowing site released three tranches of Clinton-related emails over the past year, told Pilger in the interview. “All serious analysts know, and even the US government has agreed, that some Saudi figures have been supporting ISIS and funding ISIS, but the dodge has always been that it is some “rogue” princes using their oil money to do whatever they like, but actually the government disapproves. But that email says that it is the government of Saudi Arabia, and the government of Qatar that have been funding ISIS.”As recounted by RT, Assange and Pilger, who sat down for their 25-minute interview at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London where the whistleblower has been a refugee since 2012, also talked about the conflict of interest between Clinton’s official post, her husband’s nonprofit, and the Middle East officials, whose stated desire to fight terrorism may not have been sincere.John Pilger: The Saudis, the Qataris, the Moroccans, the Bahrainis, particularly the first two, are giving all this money to the Clinton Foundation, while Hillary Clinton is secretary of state, and the State Department is approving massive arms sales, particularly Saudi Arabia.

Witches ‘Exert Mental Influence’ to Force Donald Trump to Quit the Presidential Race — Charisma News

I’ve been sounding the alarm about witchcraft season. Every October, spiritual witchcraft rises up and attacks the saints. You may feel like quitting and giving up, among other symptoms of witchcraft’s assault against your mind and body.But this I did not expect.The Telegraph is reporting witches and pagans are so offended with Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump that they are launching witchcraft grenades at him.

World Ad-Hock Association of Witches, a non-partisan group, has vowed to “exert mental influence” on the debate. The witches are convinced their dastardly deeds will force Trump to throw in the towel and are rallying the pagan troops in a “call to action.”Here’s the witchcraft strategy: When Anderson Cooper asked questions during the last debate, they will chant in one voice “quit the race.” When Trump speaks they would say on one accord, “I quit,” in efforts to find an opening in Trump’s “mental field.””From the moment we begin our influence, the idea of quitting will dominate Trump’s mind,” the group argues. “We will cause no physical harm. We will simply hold up a mirror to him on the astral plane. As we watch the debate, tens of thousands of us will shout the idea of quitting into his mind,” Peter Gower, the group’s Scotland-based spokesman, told the Telegraph. “This is exactly what part of this extremely dangerous man’s mind wants anyway, and we intend to ensure that it happens. It is possible he may announce during the debate itself that he’s quitting. But whatever happens, he will quit no more than 24 hours later.”Looks like witchcraft bowed to the prayers of the saints in Jesus’ name. Trump is still in the race, but we cannot take for granted the war we’re in over our nation no matter who’s elected.

Madonna says she’ll give blow jobs in return for Hillary Clinton votes | Metro News

Madonna has promised sexual favours for anyone who votes for Hillary Clinton in the upcoming US election, because that’s how politics works in 2016.While she’s never been shy of controversy over the years, whether its snogging Britney Spears live on-stage or using nudity to back her preferred presidential candidate, Madonna is now resorting to offering the world free rounds of oral sex in return for a vote for the Democratic nominee.No, really. She did. What do you mean you’re voting Trump now?

Trump’s presidential run is an ‘evil miracle,’ Barry Diller says

Media executive Barry Diller called Donald Trump’s presidential run an “evil miracle,” telling CNBC on Tuesday that he can’t believe the GOP presidential candidate’s campaign is still going.”The idea that clown, bad clown, could actually be president of the United States, it just insults all of us,” the chairman of IAC/InterActive and Expedia, Inc. said.This isn’t the first time that Diller and Trump have butted heads. At the Bloomberg Markets Most Influential Summit in New York, Diller said he would move out of the country if Trump won the election. He also called him a “self-promoting huckster who found a vein. A vein of meanness and nastiness.” Trump tweeted on Saturday that Diller was a “sad and pathetic figure,” pointing out Diller’s losses on The Daily Beast and Newsweek and saying the executive was “100 percent clueless on Internet.”Diller also expressed his belief that Hillary Clinton would win the election in his interview with CNBC, despite intense scrutiny. He said that he believed Clinton’s long time in the political spotlight had made her a target. Overall, Diller expressed disgust at the “horrible process we found ourselves in.” “The only thing that I would like for [the election] is to be over because he has lasted too long,” Diller said. “And, I really hope that the one thing that comes out of this is we will, first of all, say ‘Please do not speak of politics for at least another year and a half.’ Although I fear the next hour of the next day, we’ll be off to the races again.”Diller’s comments came at Virtuous Circle 2016, in Menlo Park, California. The conference brings together internet business leaders and elected officials to talk about industry trends, policy and innovation. IAC is the parent company of such internet businesses as Match Group, Home Advisor and Vimeo, as well as publications like The Daily Beast and CollegeHumor. It also owned Expedia, which it spun out into Expedia, Inc. in 2005. Michelle CastilloReporter

Fox News’s Bill O’Reilly is about to expose an unprecedented American media conspiracy – The Washington Post

Fox News’s Bill O’Reilly is about to expose an unprecedented American media conspiracy
By Erik Wemple October 10 at 2:21 PM

Bill O’Reilly. (Richard Drew, Associated Press)
All campaign long, Fox News host Bill O’Reilly has served as one of the country’s chief media critics. When Donald Trump has weathered controversies for his remarks about minorities and women, O’Reilly has been there to assess the messengers. “Americans are tired, sick and tired of far-left media people accusing others of racism, bigotry, and hatred,” said the host on his program last month.

And now O’Reilly may have landed perhaps his biggest media scoop ever. Bigger than Brian Williams embellishing; bigger than his former boss’s sexual harassment scandal; bigger than the Rolling Stone rape story; bigger than Tronc-Gannett; bigger than O’Reilly’s own embellishments about his reportorial career. It’s so big that the Erik Wemple Blog fears that abridging it would do it an injustice. So let’s just leave O’Reilly’s own words as the authority on this matter. In an interview this morning with Fox News host Bill Hemmer, O’Reilly, ever the investigative reporter, said this in the context of the country’s reaction to last night’s second presidential debate:

It’s a complicated situation, but I think everyone can agree — except for the media organizations that now have ordered their employees to destroy Trump — there’s at least three of them. And, I can’t say who they are right now because I don’t have it nailed down, but I am 100 percent convinced, and these media organizations have actually put out, ‘If you support Trump, your career is done done here.’ … News organizations have sent, not officially, but through the corporate grapevine that we don’t want anybody supporting Trump. If you study it, you can see which ones they are.

Now this is the toughest form of reporting out there: There are no documents, no emails and no memos, apparently. Just “grapevine” communications, as O’Reilly terms them. Hats off to this cable news talent. In between promoting his new book, “Killing the Rising Sun: How America Vanquished World War II Japan,” hosting his industry-leading primetime show and doing all the other things that the King of Cable News must do, O’Reilly has managed to gather the necessary human intelligence — that is, real-live sources high on the command chain at major U.S. media conglomerates — to aver on live television that perhaps the most sprawling media conspiracy in U.S. history is afoot.

This sort of reporting is why Bill O’Reilly is the King of Cable News. We’ve asked Fox News when O’Reilly will disclose the results of his investigation, because we can’t afford to miss it.

Millions evacuate East Coast before Hurricane Matthew makes landfall in US | Daily Mail Online

More than two million people in the US have been urged to evacuate their homes as Hurricane Matthew strengthens potentially causing ‘loss of life’ on the East Coast.Thousands of families have been caught in gridlock in Florida, the Carolinas and Georgia after fleeing their homes ahead of the storm – which is expected to strike Miami early on Friday morning with winds of up to 145mph.The powerful category-three hurricane, the fiercest Caribbean storm in nearly a decade, has already killed at least 22 people in Haiti and four in the Dominican Republic on Tuesday. Matthew is expected to intensify into a ‘catastrophic’ category-four again as it approaches Florida. At its height, the hurricane was a Category 5 with wind speeds of more than 157 mph.The National Weather Service has advised that ‘loss of life’ and ‘immense human suffering’ is possible for those who don’t take precautions.President Barack Obama warned: ‘I want to emphasise to the public – this is a serious storm. If there is an evacuation order in your community, you need to take it seriously.”Just remember that you can always rebuild,’ he added. ‘You can always repair property. You cannot restore a life if it is lost and we want to make sure that we minimize any possible loss of life or risk to people in these areas.
