File this articles under:  Cuomo trying to reset (with the Clinton’s)  after DNC Convention.   Gov. Cuomo blames Legislature after Hillary Clinton comes under fire for unfulfilled promise to add 200,000 upstate New York jobs when she was senator. 

The above article shows Governor Cuomo trying to make amends with democrats after being panned for his DNC speech.  Then he blasts his fellow democrats in this article.  Ummm, Governor, Buffalo was not the only area to “hemorrhage jobs”, the rest of the state is still hemorrhaging jobs.  

Governor Cuomo — and Mayor de Blasio —  should be more concerned about this!  By the way, Mr. Mayor, this is not how you increase city funds.

How silly of us for thinking Hillary can’t create jobs.   Here is how she creates jobs…of course, a pay-to-play job comes with a prerequisite and a pungent stench.  Here is how The Hill plays the information.

Hillary avoids pertinent press questions again…one would think with all the good press she gets from them she would be more willing to talk to them.

There she goes again, Hillary just cannot help herself from exaggerating what she will do if elected.  She promised New Yorker’s 200,00 jobs as Senator and failed; now the promise is 640,000 for New Yorker’s.  Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me. 

Hillary is being sued…for wrongful death and defamation. 

Have you seen this photo?  Breitbart has more on the Orlando Rally here.  The NY Post wants to know why he was invited…but true to form Hillary and her camp deny his being invited.  It is worth reading the editorial.

Sen. Schumer is out of control with his and Sen. Reid’s demand for the names of donors to 22 national or state think tanks because they may dare to disagree with them on climate change.  Sen. Schumer will live in AMERICA and we do not have to agree with what you dictate!  New Yorker’s must speak up in November; Chuckie has been in the Senate way too long.  While Lord Acton said “Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely,” he also said, “Authority that does not exist for Liberty is not authority but force.”  Senators Reid and Schumer are exercising the use of force to admonish those who present strong arguments for the other side.  Time for Chuckie to join Harry in retirement.

Help me understand this — President Obama who airlifted $400 million to Iran in January as 4 Americans were being released by Theran and claims it wasn’t ransom — is calling Donald J. Trump “unfit to be President” while holding a news conference with the Prime Minister of Singapore.  President Obama consistently praises Hillary despite the fact that the FBI Director detailed a long list of Clinton’s violations but declined to prosecute the case. 

Mr. President, your remarks are purely political and made to help elect a woman who is unfit to be president just to protect your legacy. 

Need more proof that Hillary is unfit to be president.  Watch this clip with Joe Connor on Fox and Friends this morning. 

Of course, there are still things we do not know about Hillary’s term as Secretary of State.

This is a terrifying thought. 

Expect more of this if Hillary were to become president.

Obama speaks of what he knows, being ‘unfit to be president’. 

Sen. Schumer sidesteps debate question.  Seriously, Sen. Schumer?  What are you afraid of?

Thanks to Governor Cuomo your electric bill is going up.

Today we have more followup on getting the rest of the story.  Who is Khizr Khan?  Of course he is a grieving father — the loss of a child leaves a wound so deep that time cannot heal it — but is he also a man with an agenda helping immigrants to buy their way into the United States?  Is he using the freedoms granted us in our US Constitution to promote his belief that “to Muslims, the Quran being the very word of God, it is the absolute authority from which springs the very conception of legality and every legal obligation.”  Donald J. Trump made a grave error in what he said, but knowing more helps us understand that Mr. Khan’s attack on Mr. Trump was more politically motivated than this grieving father wants you to know.  Captain Humayun Khan gave his life in the service of his country and let us not forget his sacrifice…may he rest in peace with all of our gratitude for helping to keep freedom and our way of life strong.  Gov. Mike Pence responds.

Tuesday’s with Thomas Sowell.

Just a quick reminder on how important it is to go beyond the headlines.  Paul Harvey used to remind us of the “rest of the story” and for your information here is the rest of the story on what Donald Trump said to the parents of hero Captain Humayun Khan.  The media and those who want to see Donald Trump destroyed are all to quick to react to partial statements.

Likewise, few will report on the glaring lies Hillary said on Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace.  While Wallace did his best…Hillary was in full spin mode. Listen and watch the cunning use of words as she answers Chris Wallace.   “I don’t hold any ill feeling for someone who in that moment may not fully recall everything that was or wasn’t said.”  Seriously?  Patricia Smith should be grateful you don’t hold any “Ill feeling.”  Then ask yourself what it would be like if she became number 45?  Remember what FBI Director James Comey said to Congressman Trey Gowdy. Always get the rest of the story and know who you are voting for.  You know Hillary’s interview with Chris Wallace was pure fantasy spin when even the fact checker at the Washington Post gives it 4 “Pinocchios.”

More bad news for taxpayers from the Empire Center on two different items:  Pensions and Hospitals. 

Tonight is the night Hillary Clinton accepts the manipulated nomination to become the presidential nominee of the Democratic Party.  According to The Hill, Hillary will cast the election as a “moment of reckoning.”  Hillary and her cronies have done their best to reinvent her, yet again, as a dedicated public servant only interested in the well beings of others.  Here is a more accurate picture of the woman who was too busy worrying about what the rescuers of our citizens in Benghazi would wear instead of actually rescuing them.  Here is what Dr. Sebastian Gorka thinks of Hillary’s foreign policy record. 

Hillary Clinton’s Petard.  

John Stossel opines on Clinton’s Cash. 

Ben Shapiro opines on that glass ceiling Hillary shattered.  He ends with “She may have made things worse. The last thing America needs is for its first female president to be a felonious harridan concerned with her own power above the priorities of the American people.”

True to form, Barack Obama’s can really whip up a crowd with words that mean nothing to him…unless they are extolling how wonderful he is.  Obama missed his true calling…being an actor!  Justin Holcomb reviews President Obama’s speech here. 

The headline is:  Obama and Biden, arguing to stay the course, make a case against Trump…Seriously?  Stay the course?  The Washington Post is so wrong to encourage … no believe and promote the lies these two put forth which is why I will not link to the article.

Michael Goodwin sums up last night’s DNC convention with this little tidbit about Hillary “But for one night, she was a saint. Her husband said so.”  Most of Goodwin’s column is great, however, I disagree with his statement that the “Democratic Party is not the same party it was a generation ago, and it’s definitely not Bill Clinton’s party anymore.”  Bill and Hillary were leftist when they entered the White House.  Hillary lobbied for government run health care, Bill’s agenda was forced to change when the Republicans stood strong in 1994.  Bill adapted to the changes sought and took credit, but neither ever changed their core beliefs; both are quite comfortable with today’s Democratic Party.  Sensible democrats are not, they become conservatives or republicans.   Americans are smart and understand how the Clinton’s are chameleons adapting to the current climate to consolidate personal power. 

Byron York: After Bill’s speech, is it ‘change maker’ Hillary or ‘steady’ Hillary?

Tammy Bruce gives us her take on the DNC Convention so far.  It ends with this “Recently, Hillary said if elected she’d put Bill Clinton in charge of the economy and during Sunday’s “60 Minutes” interview, she said as president she’d be calling Mr. Obama for his advice. In other words, even Hillary doesn’t think she can be president. It’s the one thing we can trust her on.”

How many times do we have to meet a “new” Hillary Clinton.

Hillary has bigger problems that reinventing herself as the email scandal is proving.  The Daily Signal has more on the newest email problems.  The Hill is reporting that “the fixer” is ready to acknowledge that, “Yes, there were maybe some bad things that happened but now let’s move on,” doing what democrats do best:  sweep problems under the rug until the press moves on. 

It may not be that easy to “just move on” since Hillary’s America cracks the top 10 at the box office.  (To watch the trailer click on Hillary’s America).)

Hillary’s VP candidate – Tim Kain – promises a bill to legalize illegal immigrants in “first 100 days”, of course he would have to win to do that.  The DNC and prime time speakers avoid mentions of the real problems — terrorism and ISIS.  

Courtney O’Brien sums up last night at the DNC with a few paragraphs…most of the media misses the irony in some many of the speeches.  Ms. O’Brien also tells us that viewers are quick to remind Mrs. Obama that it isn’t true that Hillary never quits on anything with one word:  Benghazi

The Democratic National Convention is off to a rocky start, as another email scandal shatters Hillary’s flawless coronation.  Wasserman-Schultz is out and Donna Brazile is in.  But Brazile is also implicated in the hacked email.  Leave it to the Democrats, especially Hillary,  to keep tapping someone with the same problems.  You know it is really bad when the medial cannot keep it under wraps just before the convention.

Politifact rules Clinton “fact” false.

Tonight’s DNC Convention is not dedicated to the police officers who do their best to protect our localities so be sure to read Robert Knight’s article on “Don’t Defend Yourselves“.

Governor Andrew Cuomo isn’t having a much better day.  A former North Carolina Supreme Court judge has filed complaints with the U.S. Office of Special Counsel and a New York state ethics panel alleging that taxpayer-funded ads Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s administration has run in North Carolina violated the Hatch Act by interfering with the gubernatorial and legislative races in that state.

The latest nail in Obamacare’s coffin.

Dinesh D’Souza’s forthcoming full-length film, Hillary’s America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party, will premiere in theaters nationwide on July 22nd.  The film exposes the secret history of the Democratic Party and the true motivations of Hillary Clinton. More specifically, it details how Democrats have been the party of more government control, oppression, and segregation, starting with Andrew Jackson and culminating in Hillary Clinton. It also brings to light the shady history of Bill and Hillary Clinton, with emphasis on the Clinton Foundation, which they have used as a cover to line their pockets with hundreds of millions of dollars. This highly anticipated documentary will serve as a timely and massive blow to Hillary Clinton as she looks to take control of the White House. Dinesh’s first documentary, 2016: Obama’s America, was the 2nd highest grossing political documentary of all time, and we’re hoping Hillary’s America does even better!  With the vacant seat in the Supreme Court, increased threats from ISIS, North Korea, Iran, Russia and China; and government spending that has grown out of control, I don’t need to remind you how terrible Hillary Clinton would be for America. But we must relay this message to the American people and expose, not just the deceit of Hillary, but of Democrat elites. We hope you’ll encourage your friends, family, and neighbors to go watch this controversial movie, that Hillary Clinton does not want you to see. Visit the official movie website and pre-order tickets, here:

The story of the night should be Eric Trump’s speech and the home run by VP candidate Mike Pence.  If you missed them, you can watch the video here.  Kyle Smith states that Mike Pence proves you can be both kind and ruthless in rousing speech.  Unfortunately, the media is focused on Ted Cruz who as the California Political Review correctly points out – Ted Cruz is no Ronald Reagan at GOP Convention.  Here is Charles Hurt’s assessment of the Cruz implosion.  It really is too bad that a man who is a true constitutionalist may have done permanent damage to himself.

Wendy Long is making progress and with your help will do even better.  Schumer down 6 points and Wendy Long up 5 points.

Governor Cuomo’s administration misses another report deadline.  Maybe the real reason is is late is because he is busy being Santa Clause.  By the way, they are also late in responding to Congresses request for the Hoosic Falls documents.
