“I don’t think she has a soul,” Paronto said of Clinton . . .  “I hope it haunts her. I don’t think it will.”

"Nailed it."

BRIDGEPORT — A survivor of the 2012 Benghazi siege that claimed the lives of four Americans and subject of the movie “13 Hours” repudiated Hillary Clinton Thursday night in Connecticut’s largest Democratic stronghold.

Kris “Tanto” Paronto, a military contractor and former Army Ranger, said Clinton failed as secretary of state to send in adequate reinforcements when the U.S. mission in Libya was under terrorist attack.

Part of the security team that tried to defend the compound, Paronto headlined the annual Lincoln Day fundraising dinner of Bridgeport Republicans, who make up less than 10 percent of the city’s electorate.

Paronto stopped short of endorsing the GOP’s presumptive presidential nominee, Donald Trump, but said he will work with Republicans to shine a light on what happened in the confusion of the attack that killed U.S. ambassador to Libya J. Christopher Stevens on Sept. 11, 2012.

“I don’t think she has a soul,” Paronto said of Clinton during an interview with Hearst Connecticut Media. “I hope it haunts her. I don’t think it will.”

Telemundo caught staging #NeverTrump Mexicans for camera shot

Rebel Pundit

"Filmmaker Andrew Marcus, on the scene for Rebel Pundit at yesterday’s anti-Trump protest in San Diego, caught a Telemundo cameraman red-handed as he was staging a camera shot with #NeverTrump protesters brandishing the Mexican flag (upside-down).

"Marcus confronted the Telemundo journalist instructing the protesters to gather for a shot for his camera, and then telling them to change the position of the Mexican flag, which they were displaying upside down.

"As for the protesters, they proceeded to harass Marcus, obstructing his camera and spitting on his face. One of the female protesters defended the spit by saying it was a minor who had done it."

According to the website of National Review, where French is a staff writer, he is a constitutional lawyer, a recipient of the Bronze Star, and an author of several books who lives in Columbia, Tenn., with his wife Nancy and three children.

"Reached in Israel late Tuesday afternoon, Kristol declined to comment on his efforts to induce French to run. The two Republicans confirmed that French is open to launching a bid, but that he has not made a final decision." . . .

Texas’s War Against Washington DC

"Texas is involved in suits against the federal government about abortion clinic regulations, immigration, and now school bathrooms. And that’s not all."

The Federalist  "The number of Texas suits against the federal government is growing. One might—accurately—deduce that Texas is presently not thrilled with Washington DC.

"We will need to call the new suit filed against the United States in the Northern District of Texas something besides Texas v. United States in the popular media, as the suit comes while we wait for the Supreme Court opinion in United States v. Texas, in which the Obama administration issued regulatory directives that amend U.S. law on immigration. We are also waiting for the opinion in the Texas abortion regulations case this term. Both are popular news cases, although the latter is called Whole Women’s Health v. Hellerstedt, so is less likely to cause confusion when the press refers to it properly." . . .

We must never take our eyes off the media

Couric Takes Responsibility for Inaccurate Edit in 'Under the Gun' Film   . . . "When I screened an early version of the film with the director, Stephanie Soechtig, I questioned her and the editor about the pause and was told that a "beat" was added for, as she described it, “dramatic effect," to give the audience a moment to consider the question. When VCDL members recently pointed out that they had in fact immediately answered this question, I went back and reviewed it and agree that those eight seconds do not accurately represent their response." . . .

First Couric, Now Gumbel Accused of Deceptive Edits in Anti-Gun Segment  "Sullivan went on to list his specific objections: 

The examples I most object to are: 1) When I appear to say that the civilian-model AR-15 is just as effective or deadly as the military M16, they omitted that I had said “When firing semi-auto only” and that “the select fire M16 on full auto is of course more effective”; and 2) the interviewer pretended not to understand the relevance that, due to the Hague Convention, military bullets cannot be expanding hollow points like hunting bullets that give up all of their energy in the target body instead of passing through with minimum wound effect, with most of the energy still in the bullet and wasted.

Brian Williams: America Bombed Japan ‘in Anger’   "Friday on MSNBC, anchor Brian Williams remembered the bombing of Japan as the United States bombing “in anger.”

“ 'If people have found the U.S. to be preachy in the years since Hiroshima and Nagasaki about the use of weapons because we are the only nation to have used them in anger,” he said."

Journalist Laments: We ‘Won’t Be Forcing the Faithful into Straightjackets Any Time Soon’  . . . "Alas for Mr. Tayler. Indeed, the journalist had already treated religion as a mental illness before this study had seemed to confirm it. Yet, “the hour was not nigh,” he wrote sadly. “Psychologists were not yet ready to diagnose firm belief in God as what it is: an unhealthy delusion.”

“ 'Yet, would that it were so,” he whined in a piece for Salon. “Imagine, so many Supreme Court justices and Republican politicians, from Antonin Scalia to Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum, disqualified in one fell swoop on mental health grounds from holding public office!”

" 'Of course, call any sort of gender dysphoria or non-heterosexual orientation a mental illness and the PC police would be on you in a moment. But religion? Fair game!" . . .

The media corruption was in force back during the Vietnam War. Many Americans (loathed by Democrat Bill Clinton, you may recall) died because of it and their killers were praised by the left.  “The media fueled the anti-war movement, empowering the protestors, the North Vietnamese, and the Vietcong,” he told The DCNF.

“ 'It was rare to have a ‘good news’ story about what was happening there,” Cowan said.

“ 'I recall a reporter coming to interview me at the village I was living at and apologizing after she was done by saying, ‘You know, this story will probably never see the light of day. My editors will quash it because it has too many good things in here about what you guys are doing.’” Cowan told The DCNF." . . .   Emphasis added by TD.

Read NYC’s List Of 31 Different Gender Identities You Must Recognize, Or Be Fined…

Weasel Zippers   "We brought you this story last week, but actually seeing the list that they put out is a bit stupefying. It’s not just that they believe this, it’s that they will fine you if you don’t also adhere to this nonsense. Just exactly how do I judge whether someone is a ‘two-spirit’? And what is the ‘appropriate’ pronoun for such a person? Who is gender-gifted? Isn’t that elitism, and isn’t that bad? And you list 31. At what point does it stop, because sure as God made little green apples, having gone this far, someone will say you haven’t gone far enough."
