Two days to Comey, but lots of news …..

Plenty of news stories but don’t you get the feeling the MSM really wants only to report on Comey and his testimony on Thursday?

The MSM:

If you want to see what the media is really like with this administration watch a daily briefing. (Generally airs around 1:30). They are now covered on the cable stations. One  viewership and you see the attacking, anger and vehemence of the WH press core. Their bias and “I want to get you attitude” is like never before.
Then go ahead and contrast it with a similar date from the previous administration. You will want to ask for ID’s to assure it is the same people.

Executive Privilege and Comey:

How often have you heard the press running with the headline and story asking if the President is going to invoke “executive privilege” to attempt and prevent Comey’s testimony. It was all over MSM TV and print.
Only one thing. Where did they get that from? At no time did the President or anyone in the administration raise it, hint it was an option or they might do it. It was a media story. One that has been so overly reported I bet a good portion of citizens believe it.

If you think the MSM doesn’t run with anti stories here’s another apology from NBC yesterday on a false Russian story. They issued a correction   after spinning a claim that Russian President Vladimir Putin “does not deny having compromising information” from Megan Kelly’s first interview. It wasn’t true, he said the opposite.

Now why can’t the administration answer this?

Since the announcement of our pulling out of the Paris Climate Control Agreement the press has asked over and over “does the President believe in climate change”. The refusal of everyone to answer it is plain dumb. All they have accomplished is allowing the press to paint them out of touch and against the world. No matter what he believes what is so hard to answer “the President believes the climate has and will always be changing, caused both by natural events and what man does”. End.

Plus why does …

Why does the President (and his team and family) allow him to continue to shoot himself in the foot with his tweets? We have said from day one his tweeting is good because he can reach people outside the media spin. However, he needs someone to check the messaging before it goes out. Is that so hard? His fight with the London Mayor is ridiculous and harms him on an issue he should own. His tweets on the travel ban have placed his legal team in a bind. In fact, one his attorneys George Conway (Kelly Ann’s husband) begs him to stop.
It just makes no sense with the media so aligned against you that you harm yourself. How could people so smart be so dumb?

First Leaker Arrest:

On Monday night the report came that the first leaker of classified information was arrested. Her name is Reality Winner. She is 25 years old and worked at the National Security Agency as a contractor. She had a Top Secret clearance at a Georgia facility since February.
The early report is that she is very anti President Trump and pro Bernie Sanders. On election night she apparently tweeted “Well. People suck.” She also tweeted Sanders statement calling Trump racist and xenophobic immediately after. In fact she frequently tweeted at Trump asking recently “have you ever even met an Iranian?”
Here’s an early story that likely will be updated and out by the time you read this: http://dailycaller.com/2017/06/05/nsa-leaker-is-a-bernie-supporter-who-resists-trump/

 

California votes for Single Payer system:

The California senate approved a $400 billion-a-year program that is the ulitmate goal of the national Democratic party for Health Care. A single government-run, universal-care system for everyone in the state.
Sound like a lot of money? Well the total cost would surpass the state’s annual budget of $180 billion. Where would the money come from?
A legislative analysis said that about $200 billion could be raised from a new 15 percent payroll tax. The other $200 billion could come from existing federal, state and local spending on health care.
By the way, many think that $400 Billion is understating the amount needed.
Once again we say, everyone wants to insure everyone, but when you provide free to so many you can’t pay the bill. Here’s the story if you want to review it. http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/single-payer-health-care-bill-passes-california-senate-heads-to-assembly/ar-BBBNFtd?li=BBnb7Kz

The Ratings (And Megyn Kelly’s): 

Megyn Kelly’s show debuted on Sunday. It didn’t do well. She came in third in the time slot, behind a rerun of 60 Minutes even.

Here’s Fridays ratings. Fox closed the week strong.
