Women’s World Cup Final viewership cut nearly in half as more clips of obnoxious, egocentric antics roll in Conservative News Today
Women’s World Cup Final viewership cut nearly in half as more clips of obnoxious, egocentric antics roll in Conservative News Today"According to numbers out Monday, nearly 10 million fewer American viewers on average tuned in for this year’s historic FIFA Women’s World Cup Final than tuned in when the U.S. team went up against and defeated Japan in the otherwise equally historic 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup Final.
...“The audience was down 43.8 percent from the 2015 final between the U.S. and Japan, which averaged 25.4 million viewers.
...Recorded after the team was handed the keys to New York City on Wednesday in recognition of its achievement, the clip shows player Ashlyn Harris obnoxiously bragging.
“Hide your kids, hide your wives, lock your f–kin doors, because I got the key too the motherf–king city, and I’m coming for all ya’ll b–ches,” she drunkenly says...

Who Will Clean Up America's Voter Rolls? | RealClearInvestigations
"Los Angeles County has too many voters.
An estimated 1.6 million, according to the latest calculations – which is roughly the population of Philadelphia.
That’s the difference between the number of people on the county’s voter rolls and the actual number of voting age residents.
...Los Angeles County may be California’s worst offender, but 10 of the state’s 58 counties also have registration rates exceeding 100% of the voting age population.
In fact, the voter registration rate for the entire state of California is 101%.
And the Golden State isn’t alone.
Eight states, as well as the District of Columbia, have total voter registration tallies exceeding 100%, and in total, 38 states have counties where voter registration rates exceed 100%.
Another state that stands out is Kentucky, where the voter registration rate in 48 of its 120 counties exceeded 100% last year.
About 15% of America’s counties where there is reliable voter data – that is, over 400 counties out of 2,800 – have voter registration rates over 100%..."

Federal judges ruling against Trump are setting precedents they may regret
Federal judges ruling against Trump are setting precedents they may regret:
In a Tuesday decision, the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals noted that because Trump uses Twitter to communicate with the public about his administration, and his account is open to the public for people to comment on his posts, it warrants constitutional free speech protection under the First Amendment.
Well, that makes Twitter, when used by a federal official, covered by First Amendment protections. So much for the discussion that Twitter might suspend or close President Trump's account, as it has done to many other conservatives' accounts.
Even better, it also enshrines the right of conservatives to respond to tweets by leftist elected officials. Within hours of the ruling:

The 22-year-old university student in Osaka purchased toner, moisturizer, and a tinted face primer—yes, makeup—made by a Japanese brand called Fiveism x Three.
Now Nakamura, a neuroscience student, is thinking ahead to next year, when he’ll start a job as a consultant in Tokyo.
He wants to make sure he has the right foundation and concealer lined up.
“When I start working, I’ll be meeting with clients a lot, so I think I would like to use makeup,” he says.
“Maybe it would be embarrassing to say you’re using lipstick, but things like face primer or foundation? No one would think anything of it.”

Ignore the Fear Mongering, Here's What Climate Change Models Actually Say | Mises Wire
Ignore the Fear Mongering, Here's What Climate Change Models Actually Say | Mises Wire
"An Earth scientist’s recent article making the rounds on social media highlights a terrifying conversation he had with “a very senior member” of the IPCC, which is the UN’s body devoted to studying climate science.
The upshot of their conversation was that millions of people will die from climate change, a conclusion that leads the author to lament that humans have created a consumption-driven civilization that is “hell bent on destroying itself.”
...The Conversation
Here is the opening hook from James Dyke’s article, in which he grabs the reader with an apocalyptic conversation:
...“But what about the many millions of people directly threatened,” I went on.
“Those living in low-lying nations, the farmers affected by abrupt changes in weather, kids exposed to new diseases?”
He gave a sigh, paused for a few seconds, and a sad, resigned smile crept over his face.
He then simply said: “They will die.”
Putting aside the creepiness of someone smiling as he predicts millions of deaths—sort of like a James Bond villain—we must inquire: How plausible are these warnings?
Does the climate change literature actually support such bold projections?
As it turns out, the answer is “no.”
...Conclusion
The climate change alarmists are given a free pass to throw out the most absurd rhetoric, such as a recent author’s warning that potentially billions of people could die because of human-caused climate change.
Yet despite their claimed fidelity to the “consensus science,” such claims are not supported by the UN’s own climate change reports.
The most alarming of the projections of climate change damages rely on naïve assumptions about human adaptability..."

Wait, she.
Oh settle down, it was funny.
Megan Rapinoe of all people kinda sorta had it coming, don’t you think?
Spending months crapping on America and then pretending to be some sort of ambassador?
GIRL PLEASE.
Blah blah blah.
We know, you’re as sick of reading about her as we are writing about her BUT when you see Buck Sexton’s response you’ll see why we decided to write just one more.
Antagonizing half the country at every opportunity instead of trying to expand audience is exactly the kind of strategic thinking one would expect from a team that lost to a bunch of 14 year old boys in 2017 twitter.com/thehill/status…

HAMMER: Josh Hawley’s Bill Taking On Big Tech Censorship Gains GOP Momentum. Good. | Daily Wire:
"With Section 230, tech companies get a sweetheart deal that no other industry enjoys: Complete exemption from traditional publisher liability in exchange for providing a forum free of political censorship," Hawley said at the time.
Hawley's bill did not emerge out of nowhere. In April, Cruz, in his capacity as chairman of the Senate Judiciary Judiciary's Subcommittee on the Constitution, convened a hearing on the topic of CDA Section 230 immunity. During the hearing, constitutional law expert Eugene Kontorovich offered testimony that seemed to preview the eventual filing of Hawley's bill:

"It is hard to watch someone work as hard as Trump...laying it all on the line...& then see MSM losers sit there & tear him apart.
A businessman runs for POTUS & the MSM seem to think it is their job to destroy him.
It is just too sickening to watch.
Who would ever run for POTUS after seeing what the MSM is doing to Trump?
Are only "professional politicians" allowed to run?"

And it has only gotten worse.
The crazed MSM is out to destroy President Trump & his family.
I love the fact that a businessman ran for President & won.
We elected a businessman that wants to put America & Americans first for a change. What's wrong with that?
Trump is not a professional politician.
That is a good thing for heaven's sake. We need lots of new people in DC that aren't professional politicians.
Who will be brave enough to run seeing what the MSM is doing to President Trump & his family?
Even if the MSM are not successful in their efforts to destroy President Trump, their behavior will keep many good Americans from ever running.
That will be a loss for America."

Puerto Rico governor under pressure over corruption probe, leaked messages | TheHill
"Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rosselló (D) was hit by a growing furor over a corruption probe that's rocked his administration and the release of private text messages where he made derogatory comments about other public figures.
...Federal officials allege that former Puerto Rico government officials directed federal funds to friendly contractors.
...In another message, the Puerto Rico governor mocked the Fiscal Oversight Board established by Congress to oversee the territory's finances.
"Dear Oversight Board -- Go f--- yourself," Rosselló wrote to the group, joking those were his "authorized expressions," according to the reports.
...President Trump tried to hold up aid to Puerto Rico earlier this year, accusing officials in the island of being "corrupt" as well as "incompetent," though Congress ultimately approved the disaster aid."

Records show Clinton dined with Epstein in 1995, predating public timeline | Fox News:
“Joining Clinton for a three-hour dinner was a very select group of people, some of whom, according to one Democratic Party source, gave as much as $100,000 to the Democratic National Committee for the privilege of dining with the president,” the report said.
The nearly 25-year-old report, reviewed by Fox News, indicates that Clinton and Epstein interacted years before the instances detailed in the former president's statement this week.
