Wow Mule. I forgot just how vile and sick your putrid heart actually is. I feel a transcendence. I'm actually happy you are in pain. I'm happy you are so black hearted, so bitter, so filled with hate.
What kind of malignancy fills your soul? What kind of carnivorous worms are eating you from the inside out?
You are mired in the deepest black pit of hatred Son. I hope your agony ends soon. May you find the light.
__________________________________________________________________________
Get a clue son, get informed.
Your rant is understandable. You are the one who actually believes the mainstream news media is not driven by political ideology.
Of course you can't explain why the mainstream news media's ratings continue in a downward spiral but don't let the facts confuse you. You are already confused.
Donald Trump Made Up Stuff 71 Times In An Hour
And that’s counting the commercial breaks.
WASHINGTON — Critics of Donald Trump’s presidential campaign often complain about the way the media has reported on his candidacy. It is not just the incessant coverage that riles them. It’s the perceived lack of fact-checking.
Trump is known for making outlandish and dubious claims with little connection to the truth. The press corps, these critics argue, allows him to float along in a perpetual state of unreality.
The truth is, Trump is routinely fact-checked. It’s just that he makes so many statements in such a rapid and continuous fashion that it becomes virtually impossible to keep up.
On Wednesday, The Huffington Post assigned five and a half reporters to look into a roughly 12,000-word transcript of Trump’s town hall event on CNN the night before. It took us hours, but in all, we found 71 separate instances in which Trump made a claim that was inaccurate, misleading or deeply questionable. That’s basically one falsehood every 169 words (counting the words uttered by moderator Anderson Cooper), or 1.16 falsehoods every minute (the town hall lasted an hour, including commercial breaks).

Looks like Trump is now being investigated. Apparently it was illegal for him to promise Carson an administration position if Carson endorsed Trump.
I wonder if folks will immediately consider Trump guilty in the same way they assume Hillary is guilty?
Regardless. It looks like the FBI will have more to do with choosing our next President than the people will have. Hoover must be ballroom dancing in hell.
Hoover ballroom dancing in hell, lol, probably chasing Jimmy Hoffa with a pitchfork too!

This story is so laughable even the liberal media is not reporting it.
The ballroom dancing thing isn't something big with the liberal crowd right now.
Did y'all see obama trying to Tango in Argentina?
One would think he could dance but alas; he embarrassed our country again.
The dancing (attempt) while murdered American citizens were being taken to morgues in Brussels was just classless and disrespectful but that has been constant during his failed presidency.
At least he's having a positive impact someplace... 😛
Donald Trump makes Mexican mask factory great again
A Halloween mask factory in Jiutepec, Mexico, is busier than ever. And it's all thanks to Donald Trump.
The company, Caretas REV, has two factories in Jiutepec, a city of nearly 200,000 in the central Mexican state of Morelos.
Trump's fame in the United States -- and infamy in Mexico -- drove demand for the unflattering Trump mask, which picked up last fall when it became clear that the Republican presidential candidate was going to be a serious contender.
Ricardo Esponda, a third-generation co-owner of the mask company and an executive in charge of innovation and design, takes us to one of the multiple shops inside the factory, a warehouse where mostly female workers put the finishing touches on the masks before they're shipped out.
He points toward one worker who's neatly placing strands of artificial hair onto a latex mask.
"We weren't making this mask with hair at first," Esponda said, "but some of our customers asked for it. It's got to have hair."
The one with hair is the deluxe model, and sells for $23 in the United States. The standard all-latex version is $19.95. Caretas REV has since produced tens of thousands of Donald Trump masks.

Yet another dismal day for Muleman. Your life sounds painful and exhausting. Are you capable of experiencing joy? Or did mommy and daddy take that away from you?
Anyone ever see the SNL skit "Debbie Downer"? Reminds me of Muleman.
One would think he could dance...
Why is that?
All presidents know how to dance......
Obama has never demonstrated the class and dignity of the office.
When American citizens were murdered by Islamic Extremist Terrorists in Brussels, obama goes to a baseball game with a communist dictator in Cuba.
At least in Cuba obama was comfortable.
Obama has more class than you will ever have......and he definitely understands the dignity of the office...
I have read the posts by right wingers that have just vilified Obama and his family - in despicable ways - and he has never stooped to their level, and has ignored them for 7 years - I know I wouldn't have been able to....
Obama accepted a Herculean task. Throughout that task he has been an extraordinary leader. I've disagreed with him on many issues but I know history will judge him to be one of the finest Presidents in American History.
That will happen. Obama is the Jackie Robinson of Presidents. The bar was set higher for him. Way higher. And by God President Obama high jumped right over that bar.
That's just my opinion.
I have a friend that hates him. I think primarily because of Obama Care. Last year my friend finally caved, went on the exchange and purchase a policy for his family. Within weeks his youngest son swallowed a tooth pick and had to go to the emergency room. A couple more weeks pass and his eldest son gets hit by a car while he is riding his skateboard. A couple more weeks pass and his wife suffers a cluster of strokes. She spends more than 3 weeks in the hospital for tests. Finally, through the testing, they discover she has ovarian cancer. Now she is going through an arduous and debilitating treatment of chemo.
If my friend had not been forced into buying health insurance because of the Affordable Care Act he might very well be homeless and bankrupt now.
That is no exaggeration. I think he owes Obama a huge thanks. But to talk to my friend its like Obama caused his entire string of bad luck.
Have you noticed that GE has a nationwide advertising campaign going on right now looking for employees? I know my wife is constantly hiring. About 4 years ago her work force consisted of about 4500 people. Now she has nearly 8000 people working for her and she needs more. The company has been building in all sorts of incentives to persuade people to take the jobs and then to keep the long term employees happy and productive.
This wasn't the situation when Obama took office.
When Cruz talks "Republicans are uniting behind our campaign because they want a leader with real solutions who will bring back jobs, freedom, and security." I really got to wonder where he has been for the last 8 years.
Any person with a grasp on reality cannot deny that Obama has made this country better.
He has done a great job.

CIA director says agency will not use controversial interrogation techniques again
CIA Director John Brennan has said that his spy agency will not use controversial interrogation techniques, such as waterboarding, even if ordered to do so by a future president.
Brennan made the remarks in an interview with NBC News released Sunday.
"I will not agree to carry out some of these tactics and techniques I've heard bandied about because this institution needs to endure," he said. Brennan later added that he would "not agree to having any CIA officer carrying out waterboarding again."
President Barack Obama banned waterboarding shortly after taking office in 2009. However, Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump has repeatedly promised that he would revive the practice if elected.
At a Republican debate in New Hampshire this past February, Trump said he would "bring back a hell of a lot worse than waterboarding", an interrogation technique in which a detainee is made to feel that he is drowning.
Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, Trump's greatest rival for the GOP nomination, said at that same debate that he would not make "widespread use" of the practice, but added that he did not believe the practice amounted to torture.
In December 2014, Democrats on the Senate Intelligence Committee released a report claiming the interrogation methods used by the CIA in the months after the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks were "brutal and far worse" than the agency had represented to lawmakers.
The report alleged that the agency had tortured several suspected Al Qaeda detainees held in secret facilities in Europe and Asia. CIA officials claimed at the time that the interrogation methods produced valuable and actionable intelligence, including information that led U.S. forces to the whereabouts of Usama bin Laden in 2011.
That assessment was echoed by Brennan himself in his response to the report, which read in part, "The intelligence gained from the program was critical to our understanding of Al Qaeda and continues to inform our counterterrorism efforts to this day."
However, during his confirmation hearings to be CIA director in February 2013, Brennan said the intelligence committee's report "raises serious questions about the information that I was given" about the effectiveness of enhanced interrogation techniques.
Brennan later added, "I do not know what the truth is."

Trump, is that still a thing ?
Trump, is that still a thing ?
Ummm, yes?
Although his kids must not think so since they didn't register to in time to vote in the NY primary (must register 25 days in advance). Trump didn't know the rules either and has said that he thought they had to be registered a year in advance so they missed it, when in reality they could have registered up until late-March. It is also telling that at 32 and 34 years old, neither of them have ever bothered to vote...kinda funny watching them stump for dad knowing neither one of them can actually cast a vote for him in the NY primary. 😛

NC's own "esteemed" Senator Richard Burr, who also happens to be chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, showed up to vote in the NC Primary and had NO ID, so he had to cast a provisional ballot.
How ironic that one of the staunchest defenders of NC's voting laws, which are the among the most restrictive in the nation and were clearly rewritten to disenfranchise anyone who votes democratic - blacks, non - whites, even students (student picture IDs are now not accepted) was bitten in the ass by the same law that he and all his cronies in the state legislature rammed through in the wake of Obama's election(s).
You can't make this sh!t up.
The Kansas Secretary of State, Kris Kobach (he wrote that Arizona bill that raised all that ruckus and is serving as a top Trump advisor on how to get Mexico to pay for that wall) had to issue a statement yesterday. Seems that the Spanish voting instructions had erroneous information on what forms of ID are acceptable as well as an incorrect deadline date...telling voters reading the Spanish voting guide that you can register up to 15 days before the election. The English version had the correct info, you can register 21 days prior.
Kobach blamed "an administrative error."

If the govt. was going to stop the torture interrogation techniques, there would not be any rendition sites in any countries, yet there are and always will be. After the scandal of the torture at Abu Ghraib, it should have NEVER happened again at Gitmo. It just shows you they do not plan to stop and you haven't even heard some of what they do.
No comments about Trump vs. Cruz, Battle of the Wives? 😛
After that GQ (Gentleman's Quarterly Magazine) photo shoot that Melania did, I don't think we'll have a debate about who has the better looking wife.
Interesting though is Trump had a covert meeting with Megyn Kelly. She was spotted going into Trump Tower and Fox News worked on arranging the meet.
Trump campaign manager will not be prosecuted on battery charge -Politico
April 13 (Reuters) - Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump's campaign manager, who was charged in Florida last month with battery on a reporter, will not be prosecuted, Politico reported on Wednesday, citing sources with knowledge of the situation.
Corey Lewandowski was charged with intentionally grabbing and bruising the arm of Michelle Fields, then a reporter for the conservative news outlet Breitbart, when she tried to question Trump at a campaign event on March 8.
Palm Beach County State Attorney David Aronberg is scheduled to announce the decision not to press charges against Lewandowski on Thursday afternoon, Politico said. (Reporting by Eric Beech in Washington; Editing by Mohammad Zargham)

Michelle Fields now says she will pursue a defamation lawsuit. This was always all about money.
Too funny...Trump's giving shout outs to dead guys now as he attempts to pander to PA voters.
Donald Trump gives Joe Paterno a shout-out in Pittsburgh
Washington (CNN) Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump tried to appeal to Pennsylvania State University fans at a rally in Pittsburgh Wednesday night by mentioning former legendary Penn State football coach Joe Paterno.
"How's Joe Paterno? We're gonna bring that back? Right? How about that whole deal?" Trump said invoking Paterno, who died in 2012.
Trump, who made the comments before a raucus crowd, then turned his attention back to the university.
"We do love Penn State. Do we love Penn State?" he said to cheers.
A campaign spokesperson said Trump was referring to the statue of Paterno on campus, that was taken down after his former assistant coach, Jerry Sandusky was convicted of child molestation in 2012.
In November 2011, a grand jury report said officials at Penn State failed to notify law enforcement after learning about some of the allegations. Paterno subsequently announced his intent to retire at the end of the season, but hours later, university trustees said Paterno -- and university president Graham Spanier -- were fired, effective immediately.
Penn State had five undefeated seasons under Paterno, also known as "JoePa." In 2012, the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) ruled that Penn State must vacate all football wins from 1998-2011. In 2015, the NCAA restored 112 of the team's wins. Some Penn State alumni have been trying to restore the coach's statue.

Trump Will be interviewed by @SeanHannity on @FoxNews tonight at 10pm from Pennsylvania.
Trump Tower Funded by Rich Chinese Who Invest Cash for Visas
Throughout his presidential campaign, Donald Trump has attacked China and warned about the dangers of deficient immigrant screening.
"They’ve taken our jobs, they’ve taken our money, they’ve taken everything," he said of China in a speech late last month. He has called for a revamping, even a freezing, of the immigration system, but says he would make an exception for the highly skilled.
Yet no skills are required of the wealthy Chinese being courted by a Chinese-subtitled video to help finance a huge Trump-branded tower in New Jersey. The video leads viewers behind the wheel of a car into Jersey City with scenes of the tower, all to the tune of the theme song from The Sopranos, "Woke Up This Morning."
The video was produced to help raise tens of millions of dollars through a controversial government program that offers expedited visas to foreign investors overwhelmingly from China. While the program has many supporters who argue it attracts foreign capital and creates jobs at no U.S. taxpayer cost, congressional overseers and Homeland Security have raised sharp concerns. Applicants are sometimes cleared in less than a month and the critics say the government is essentially selling visas to wealthy foreigners with no proven skills, paving the way for money laundering and compromising national security.
Outdoor Pool, Indoor Golf
Trump Bay Street is a 50-story luxury rental apartment building being built by Kushner Companies, whose chief executive officer, Jared Kushner, is married to Trump’s daughter Ivanka. It will have an outdoor pool, indoor golf simulator and sweeping views of Lower Manhattan; it adjoins an existing high rise condo, Trump Plaza Residence. The firm that was hired to seek investors, US Immigration Fund, is run by Florida developer Nicholas Mastroianni, who announced a partnership last year with a Trump golf course in Jupiter, Florida.
The visa program is known as EB-5. In exchange for investing at least $500,000 in a project promising to create jobs, foreigners receive a two-year visa with a good chance of obtaining permanent residency for them and their families. In 2014, the most recent year for which records are available, the U.S. issued 10,692 of these visas -- 85% to people from China.
The Jersey City project has raised $50 million, about a quarter of its funding, from loans obtained through EB-5, according to a slide presentation by US Immigration Fund. Mark Giresi, general counsel of US Immigration Fund, said he believed nearly all of the EB-5 investors in the Trump project were from China.
Asked for a comment for this article, a Trump spokeswoman said by email, "This was a highly successful license deal but he is not a partner in the financing of the development." She did not respond to questions about EB-5. A Kushner spokeswoman said the project was entirely legal and creating jobs.
Verifying Source of Funds
The Government Accountability Office, the investigative branch of Congress, found last year in a general report about the EB-5 program that many applications contained a high risk of fraud, and discovered cases of counterfeit documentation. State Department officials told the GAO that there is “no reliable method to verify the source of the funds of petitioners.â€
Giresi of US Immigration Fund says his firm uses “very stringent compliance programs†with a “great amount of due diligence†to look into the background of prospective investors, including hiring private investigators.
Senator Charles Grassley, a Republican who is chairman of the judiciary committee, last month cited a memo from Homeland Security saying that EB-5 visa holders do not clear the same hurdles as other immigrants, like proof of education and work qualifications. Senator Patrick Leahy, a Vermont Democrat, said at the hearing that while he has supported EB-5 over the years, "If the program is to continue, it must be reformed."
Last spring, a Homeland Security special agent testified that EB-5 applicants from China, Russia, Pakistan and Malaysia "had been approved in as little as 16 days, with files lacking basic law enforcement queries." And a report last year by the Department of Homeland Security Inspector General found politically connected participants may have received favorable treatment, citing projects involving Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe and Hillary Clinton’s brother, Tony Rodham.
A spokesman for Governor McAuliffe said the report demonstrates that he, “along with many other bipartisan individuals and businesses," asked Homeland Security "to fulfill its obligation to adjudicate the applications that were before them in a timely fashion.â€
Rodham said in a phone interview that his interaction with Homeland Security was appropriate.
High-Profile Developments
The visa program was intended to create jobs in economically distressed areas but has often turned into a source of financing for high-profile developments in prosperous neighborhoods, such as Brooklyn’s Barclays Center and Manhattan’s Hudson Yards. Audrey Singer, a Brookings fellow, says data collected through the program makes it impossible to track how many jobs get created.
Visas have become an issue in the Trump campaign although he hasn’t addressed the EB-5 program. He has acknowledged using temporary visas for workers at his Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach, Florida. He says he wants to eliminate what he calls "rampant, widespread" abuse of temporary visas for skilled workers and is committed to "institute an absolute requirement to hire American workers first for every visa and immigration program."
Trump himself has built few buildings in the past two decades. Instead, developers who want to use the name pay him a licensing fee. A Kushner spokeswoman, Risa Heller, declined to comment on the specific arrangement in Jersey City with Trump’s son-in-law. She said, "The money was raised lawfully by the US Immigration Fund consistent with all the requirements of EB-5. This program enabled a development that created hundreds of new jobs in an area with employment needs.â€
Kushner Companies is a New Jersey-based real estate firm built by Kushner’s father Charles, a former rainmaker in New Jersey Democratic politics who pleaded guilty to a federal campaign finance violation, filing false tax returns as well as attempts to silence a witness. Charles was sentenced in 2005 to a prison term of two years. He remains active in the company. Jersey City is the first and, so far, only Trump project for the company.
The Trump building, barely a 5-minute train ride from Lower Manhattan, is located in Jersey City’s Powerhouse district, the site of numerous new high rises and other new construction and renovation. The pale yellow tower is expected to be completed this summer.
