The president described Weinstein’s conviction as a “great victory” for women that “sends a very strong message” for the #MeToo movement.
“I think from the point of view of women, it is a great day, a great victory,” Trump said.
Trump is indeed correct about Weinstein’s connections to the Obamas and the Clintons.

Weinstein also was a big Democratic donor, most notably donating $250,000 to the Clinton Foundation that has yet to be returned. Since 2000, he’s donated $26,000 to Hillary Clinton’s various failed presidential bids as well as $45,000 to campaigns or super PACs supporting Barack Obama’s two campaigns.

Could for President Trump for calling out Michelle and Hillary for their connections to Weinstein. We hope the public will never forget how close to him they really were.

Politico reported that Clinton’s podcast is set to be co-produced by audio giant iHeartMedia, and it will launch in the late spring, giving her more than enough time to exert her influence over the election.
Clinton was reportedly partly inspired to launch a podcast after being interviewed with her daughter Chelsea on Conan O’Brien’s audio show, “Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend,” back in the fall, when they were promoting their book “The Book of Gutsy Women.”
Clinton was struck by how different her hour-long conversation with O’Brien was in comparison to shorter interviews that she has done, and she believes this format will give her time to have deeper discussions with her guests.
“Conan just exudes enthusiasm about this platform and he does these interviews that are really evergreen and the idea with her, in part inspired by that experience, is to do the same thing,” said a source close to Clinton. “She wants to try to have a wider-ranging conversation that will be lasting, so you can listen to it in a year or you can listen to it tomorrow and it will be interesting.

Clinton is undoubtedly hoping to use her show to promote her Democratic presidential candidates of choice and to eventually help them defeat President Donald Trump in November. One Democrat who likely won’t be appearing on the podcast, however, is Bernie Sanders (I-VT), who Clinton made headlines for bashing in her upcoming Hulu documentary “Hillary.”
“He was in Congress for years,” she said of Sanders, according to Fox News. “He had one senator support him. Nobody likes him, nobody wants to work with him, he got nothing done. He was a career politician. It’s all just baloney and I feel so bad that people got sucked into it.”
Though Clinton had suggested last month that she would not support Sanders if he won the nomination, she has since backtracked on this.

Clinton may think she can use her podcast to take Trump down, but it likely won’t impact him at all, as anyone who would take the time to listen to Clinton rant for an hour or more has probably already made up their minds to vote Democrat. Clinton will end up preaching to the choir, and not reaching any voters who are either pro-Trump or undecided.
At the end of the day, this is a huge waste of time, and will end up just being another failure Clinton can add to her long list of losses.

Donald Trump Jr. Blasts Democrats For Politicizing Coronavirus – Calls Out Their ‘New Level Of Sickness’

Donald Trump Jr. lashed out at Democrats and the mainstream media today for politicizing the coronavirus , calling what they are doing a “ new level of sickness.
” During an interview with “ Fox & Friends ” on Friday morning , Trump Jr. said that he is “ not at all surprised ” by the way Democrats have reacted to his father ’ s administration ’ s handling of the coronavirus pandemic .
“ Anything that they can use to try to hurt Trump , they will , ” Trump Jr. said .
“ Anything he does in a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reporter that was just suspended from ABC— they will not give him credit for.
” MORE NEWS : Democrats file lawsuit to have Bernie Sanders kept off ballot in Florida He went on to say that though the Democrats ’ strategy is “ old at this point , ” for them to try to take a potential pandemic and “ seemingly hope that it comes here , and kills millions of people so they can end Donald Trump ’ s streak of winning is a new level of sickness.
” This comes after @ @ @ @ @ @ @ backlash for running an op-ed that effectively blamed the entire coronavirus on President Donald Trump , going so far as to say that the ailment should be renamed “ Trumpvirus.
” “ I don ’ t know if this is coronavirus or Trump Derangement Syndrome , but these people are infected badly , ” Trump Jr. said .
“ To run that in The New York Times —this isn ’ t Vox , this isn ’ t one of those left-wing journals— this is The New York Times writing this with seriousness , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Now those same Democrats last week , when my father shut down travel to and from China , were saying it ’ s an overreaction , it ’ s a disaster , ‘ you ’ re being xenophobic.
’ Now , they ’ re flipping that , ” he continued .
“ I mean they can have it both ways because no one in the media will actually cover themselves honestly .
And that ’ s what ’ s gone on and I think the American people have seen it for what it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ travesty.
” Coronavirus has quickly spread like wildfire around the world , with over 83,000 cases reported globally .
In the U.S. , there have been 60 recorded cases so far at the time of this writing , 33 of which are in California .
We can certainly feel the frustration of Trump Jr.
It ’ s truly despicable that Democrats are politicizing a deadly virus at a time when we should be putting politics aside to come together and work on saving lives .
Democrats have long made it clear that they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ than see Trump succeed .
Now , they are showing that they ’ d rather see people die than see Trump succeed in stopping the coronavirus .

Donald Trump Jr. lashed out at Democrats and the mainstream media today for politicizing the coronavirus, calling what they are doing a “new level of sickness.”
During an interview with “Fox & Friends” on Friday morning, Trump Jr. said that he is “not at all surprised” by the way Democrats have reacted to his father’s administration’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
“Anything that they can use to try to hurt Trump, they will,” Trump Jr. said. “Anything he does in a positive sense —like we heard from the reporter that was just suspended from ABC— they will not give him credit for.”

He went on to say that though the Democrats’ strategy is “old at this point,” for them to try to take a potential pandemic and “seemingly hope that it comes here, and kills millions of people so they can end Donald Trump’s streak of winning is a new level of sickness.”
This comes after The New York Times was hit with backlash for running an op-ed that effectively blamed the entire coronavirus on President Donald Trump, going so far as to say that the ailment should be renamed “Trumpvirus.”
“I don’t know if this is coronavirus or Trump Derangement Syndrome, but these people are infected badly,” Trump Jr. said. “To run that in The New York Times —this isn’t Vox, this isn’t one of those left-wing journals— this is The New York Times writing this with seriousness, it’s truly sick.”
“Now those same Democrats last week, when my father shut down travel to and from China, were saying it’s an overreaction, it’s a disaster, ‘you’re being xenophobic.’ Now, they’re flipping that,” he continued. “I mean they can have it both ways because no one in the media will actually cover themselves honestly. And that’s what’s gone on and I think the American people have seen it for what it is and it’s an absolute travesty.”

Coronavirus has quickly spread like wildfire around the world, with over 83,000 cases reported globally. In the U.S., there have been 60 recorded cases so far at the time of this writing, 33 of which are in California.

We can certainly feel the frustration of Trump Jr. It’s truly despicable that Democrats are politicizing a deadly virus at a time when we should be putting politics aside to come together and work on saving lives.
Democrats have long made it clear that they’d rather see our country fail than see Trump succeed. Now, they are showing that they’d rather see people die than see Trump succeed in stopping the coronavirus.
They should all be ashamed of themselves.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-02-28--Finally, Joe Biden Under Investigation in Ukraine for Quid Pro Quo

We saw how a man innocent of the charge of quid pro quo , President Donald Trump , was dragged through the mud by Democrats , to no avail .
Now the man who actually got an unethical deal from the Ukrainians is coming under probe .
Just in time for his presidential campaign .
Joe Biden is under a microscope by investigators in Ukraine for using U.S. pressure to force out a prosecutor who was looking into Burisma , a firm where his son Hunter sat on the board .
The prosecutor who was ousted , Viktor Shokin , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Looks like he ’ s going to get it .
He got a court order to launch it .
His lawyer said this : “ They need to investigate this .
They have no other alternative , ” Oleksandr Teleshetsky told The Washington Post .
“ They are required to do this by the decision of the court .
If they don ’ t , then they violate a whole string of procedural norms.
” If you forgot the blatant conflict of interest and glaring quid pro quo involved in this case , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for you .
“ I said , ‘ You ’ re not getting the billion.
’ I ’ m going to be leaving here in , I think it was about six hours .
I looked at them and said : ‘ I ’ m leaving in six hours .
If the prosecutor is not fired , you ’ re not getting the money , ’ ” Biden said , talking to then-Ukraine President Petro Poroshenko .
MORE NEWS : Democrats file lawsuit to have Bernie Sanders kept off ballot in Florida “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he got fired , ” Biden added .
“ And they put in place someone who was solid at the time.
” And by “ solid ” Biden meant a weak legal bureaucrat who would let Hunter Biden continue to make a fortune trading on the name of his father and the office his father held at the time .
Maybe now , the GOP Senate Judiciary Committee can do a real hearing on actual quid pro quo .

Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said this week that she would be “ comfortable ” with Bernie Sanders ( I-VT ) as her party ’ s presidential nominee , but a bombshell new report from The New York Times is directly contradicting this , stating that top Democratic leaders are preparing to launch a plan to take him down at the nominating convention this summer .

After interviewing dozens of party leaders and 93 super-delegates, The Times found that many of them are secretly planning to stop Sanders at the convention, even if it will hurt the party’s chances of beating Trump in November. The Times reported:
“This article is based on interviews with the 93 superdelegates, out of 771 total, as well as party strategists and aides to senior Democrats about the thinking of party leaders. A vast majority of those superdelegates — whose ranks include federal elected officials, former presidents and vice presidents and D.N.C. members — predicted that no candidate would clinch the nomination during the primaries, and that there would be a brokered convention fight in July to choose a nominee.”

“We’re way, way, way past the day where party leaders can determine an outcome here, but I think there’s a vibrant conversation about whether there is anything that can be done,” Connecticut Congressman and super-delegate Jim Himes told The Times.
The Times also claimed that just nine of the 93 super-delegates said that Sanders should become the Democratic nominee, should he get to the convention with a plurality of delegates.
“I’ve had 60 years experience with Democratic delegates — I don’t think they will do anything like that,” explained super-delegate and former Vice President Walter Mondale. “They will each do what they want to do, and somehow they will work it out. God knows how.”
This comes as Sanders has become the front-runner of the Democratic presidential race, much to the dismay of members of the Democratic establishment. Congressman Steve Israel (D-NY) said that four top donors had contacted him asking if he knew of anyone who could help them build a super PAC whose goal would be to take Sanders down. He claims to have told them that he did not know of anyone.
“People are worried,” said former Connecticut Sen. Chris Dodd, who has endorsed Joe Biden in the race: “How you can spend four or five months hoping you don’t have to put a bumper sticker from that guy on your car?”

Democrats have good reason to panic given the fact that nobody in the middle is ever going to vote for Sanders. If he does indeed become the nominee, Donald Trump will likely have no problem winning in November, so leftists should probably start preparing themselves now for four more years of this president in the White House.

Mike Bloomberg , not exactly a poster boy for the ethnic vibrancy and emotional fire that typifies Latin culture , is making a run at Latin voters on Super Tuesday .

His campaign , NBC reports , “ is reaching out to Latino voters in a variety of ways , including direct mail , advertising and supporter mobilization program , ” said Bloomberg spokesperson Alejandra Soto .
“ Mike launched the campaign ’ s Ganamos con Mike outreach initiative at the end of January , and the campaign @ @ @ @ @ @ @ states.
” On the stump Bloomberg has worked out a message he thinks will energize Latin voters .
He emphasized the concept of security .
“ And by ‘ security , ’ I don ’ t mean only physical security .
I mean economic security .
I mean housing security .
I mean the security of knowing your kids will have a quality education , knowing you will be able to afford health care , and knowing you will be safe from climate change — which , make no mistake , is hitting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ right here in Texas , not to mention places like Puerto Rico.
” MORE NEWS : Democrats file lawsuit to have Bernie Sanders kept off ballot in Florida “ And we will create a path to legalization and citizenship for the 11 million people living in the shadows .
This will be one of the top priorities during my first month in office .
And I ’ ve got to tell you , after too many years of inaction , I want to make it clear : We will get it done.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in this space before , the Latin vote is not monolithic .

So the liberal tone of Bloomberg’s message may not play with all Latins, especially in Florida. But more than that, Latins are very intuitive voters.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-02-26--Super Tuesday Will Set The Pace To The Convention And Beyond

For a Democrat to win the nomination on the first ballot in Milwaukee in July they will have to secure 1,990 delegates out of a total of 3,979 available .
On Tuesday , California with 494 delegates , Texas with 261 , and North Carolina with 122 all go to the polls .
That ’ s 877 just with those three .
On Tuesday 1,357 are totally available , counting the other states like Virginia , Minnesota , and Colorado that also take part .
That ’ s 1,357 up for grabs next Tuesday out of 1,990 needed for the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ goes into it with an already solid lead .
He does well delegate-wise then and he may be close to impossible to stop .
Close to , not impossible .
We ’ ve seen how the Democrats don ’ t like the results of voting that doesn ’ t go their way by their attempt to overthrow the president .
Well , the Democrat establishment feels the same way about races inside their own party .
So they ’ ve laid booby traps for Sanders all the way from here to Milwaukee .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ are winner-take-all .
So Sanders could win the state but not get a majority of the delegates .
Some states allow voting by mail and other ways , like ballot harvesting , that can overturn a legitimate result .
Then there ’ s the fail-safe at the convention : Super-delegates .
500 people are standing by on the second ballot at the convention to throw a spanner into Sanders ’ hopes .
He just has to be stopped from getting to 1,990 on the first ballot .
Then Bernie will start to bleed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an alternative , like Klobuchar .
Or so the thinking goes .
After getting robbed at the last Democratic convention , the Sanderistas are in no mood to play patsy a second time .
If it goes to a second ballot and Bernie is losing ground , they will scream bloody murder and stay with their man .
There is an even more murky dirty trick waiting for the Vermonter : Fake endorsements .
Up to and during the convention , before the first ballot , he ’ ll have some pretty good @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hillary ’ s of the past couple of days .

“I watch this and I realize there’s a lot of stupid people on TV,” Levin told Fox News’ Sean Hannity. “The last people I want playing doctor with me or the American people are Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi.”

Levin then read a number of things Trump has done since the outbreak began, even as Democrats accuse the administration for not having a good response.
“There’s no CDC cuts. There’s been [funding] increases,” Levin said. “Certain individuals have been quarantined by this president — the first time a U.S. president has done that in over half a century. The White House coronavirus task force was appointed over a month ago. The president temporarily suspended entry into the United States.”
Democrats Should Have Been More Worried About Coronavirus Than Impeachment
Levin said that while Trump’s team worked feverishly to contain the virus, Democrats were too busy worrying about the impeachment trial.
“From January 16 to February 5, the United States Senate was paralyzed by the House Democrats and Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi with this outrageous impeachment trial where the Senators had to sit on their hands, shut their mouths and couldn’t pass any business,” Levin charged.
“They couldn’t address the coronavirus because Pelosi and Schumer shut down the Congress,” he continued. “They don’t want to talk about that, do they?”

Levin then slammed the 2020 Democratic field.

Liberals Have No Answers
“The Democrats, they go to the microphone and they attack. They don’t know anything,” Levin said. “What is their plan? What is the Schumer-Pelosi-[Bernie] Sanders – [Amy] Klobuchar- [Michael] Bloomberg whatever plans? They have great plans for containment. Open borders, eliminate ICE, no vetting of foreigners, sanctuary cities, nationalize and destroy the greatest healthcare system, destroy our pharmaceutical companies … that will come up with the solutions? ”
“The answers won’t come from the liberals and the Democrats,” Levin added, “which is why they attack.”

In a recent article for GQ , which used to be a men ’ s magazine , journo Laura Bassett had some unkind things to say about MSNBC host Chris Matthews .
“ In 2017 , I wrote about a cable news host being gross and inappropriate with me .
I was afraid to name him at the time , ” she tweeted on Friday , in addition to the GQ piece .
“ I ’ m not anymore ; it was Chris Matthews !
And his sexist exchange with [ Sen. Elizabeth ] Warren this week inspired me to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ After that overwrought set up , the GQ piece took over , as reported by Fox News .
“ She recalled Matthews looking at her in the adjacent makeup chair and asking : ‘ Why haven ’ t I fallen in love with you yet ? '
” MORE NEWS : Democrats file lawsuit to have Bernie Sanders kept off ballot in Florida “ Keep putting makeup on her , I ’ ll fall in love with her , ” Matthews supposedly said .
“ Another time , Matthews seemed to make a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of her makeup .
“ Make sure you wipe this off her face after the show .
We don ’ t make her up so some guy at a bar can look at her like this , ” Bassett said Matthews told a makeup artist .
“ In fact , ” Bassett wrote , “ Matthews ’ whole modus operandi seems to be inviting smart women onto his show , flirting with them or otherwise making them uncomfortable before or while the camera rolls , asking them a question on air and then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they ’ re wrong.
” The key parts to take away from this are “ …his sexist exchange with [ Sen. Elizabeth ] Warren this week inspired me… ” and “ …interrupting them to tell them why they ’ re wrong.

Her victim act is laughable .
