Mitt Romney says he voted for his wife in 2016



Man was I wrong about this guy!

He voted for his wife which in effect was a vote for Hillary. He hates Trump calling him a "phony" and a "fraud" but gladly kissed his ass in attempting to become SOS. Totally surprised Trump even had a meeting with this turd. If Romney becomes a senator and you believe in reincarnation he's a John McCain in the making.

Reality...



----------------------------------


Mitt Romney made no secret of his criticism of Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign, but until now, he had not publicly revealed who he voted for: his wife, Ann.

"I wrote in the name of a person who I admire deeply, who I think would be an excellent president," the Utah US Senate candidate told the Deseret News and KSL editorial boards <https://www.deseretnews.com/article/900020076/mitt-romney-reveals-his-2016-presidential-vote.html> Wednesday.

Romney said he realized his vote "wasn't going to go anywhere, but nonetheless felt that I was putting in a very solid name."

During the 2016 campaign, Romney, the 2012 Republican presidential nominee, became a leading conservative of the "Never Trump" movement and forcefully rebuked <https://www.cnn.com/2016/03/03/politics/mitt-romney-presidential-race-speech/index.html> Trump, calling him a "phony" and a "fraud." 

Romney revealed he voted for Texas Sen. Ted Cruz in the Utah caucuses in March 2016 and urged other Republicans to do so and even attempted to recruit a third-party challenger <https://www.cnn.com/2016/05/18/politics/mitt-romney-never-trump-independent-2016-campaign/index.html> to Trump and Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton.

Since Trump took office, Romney has applauded some of Trump's policies while still remaining critical of Trump's rhetoric and character.

Romney recently would not commit to supporting Trump <https://www.cnn.com/2018/04/21/politics/romney-utah-gop-convention-interview/index.html> in the next presidential cycle in 2020 and told NBC News earlier this week he would not point to Trump as a "role model for his grandkids <https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/29/politics/mitt-romney-trump-role-model/index.html>" given Trump's "personal style."

The former Massachusetts governor is currently seeking retiring Republican Sen. Orrin Hatch's Senate seat. Romney, who has Trump's endorsement in the race, faces state Rep. Mike Kennedy in the Republican primary on June 26.

Obamas' Netflix deal inked with help from bundler buddy



Believe me, I'm rethinking my membership with Netflix


Barry's famous quotes:

“I do think at a certain point you’ve made enough money.” — Barack Obama

Barry inked a book deal for $67 million and is sure to get at least a $100 million from Netflix. Wonder if he hit that 'certain point' yet?

“I think when you spread the wealth around, it’s good for everybody.” — Barack Obama

Shop's at Cartier's, dinner and Peter Luger's, buying homes left and right, so he's spreading it around alright.

Netflix chief content officer Ted Sarandos celebrated Barack and Michelle Obama as “among the world’s most respected and highly-recognized public figures” in announcing a deal last week for the Obama family to produce films and series for the streaming service.

“We are incredibly proud they have chosen to make Netflix the home for their formidable storytelling abilities,” Sarandos said in a news release.

What Sarandos didn’t mention: He and his wife have long been donors and friends to the Obamas, having raised more than a half-million dollars as bundlers for the president’s campaign in 2012. His wife, Nicole Avant, also was appointed by Obama as ambassador to the Bahamas, serving from 2009 to 2011.

Netflix confirmed to Fox News on Tuesday that Sarandos himself was directly involved in brokering the Obama deal.

"Ted Sarandos is our chief content officer so of course he was engaged in bringing Higher Ground Productions to Netflix,” a company spokesman told Fox News on Monday.

Higher Ground Productions is the name of the company established by the Obamas to produce content for Netflix.


When will this air?





According to the New York Post, which first reported Sarandos’ involvement in the deal, Sarandos and Avant bundled nearly $600,000 in contributions to Obama during the 2012 presidential campaign.

Avant’s father, Clarence, a music executive, also bundled nearly $450,000 for Obama’s presidential campaigns, the Post reported. The newspaper said one source estimated the deal with the Obamas could be worth over $50 million. 

The Obama deal also comes just two months after Netflix announced that Susan Rice, Obama’s former national security adviser and ambassador to the United Nations, would be joining the company’s board of directors.

“I am thrilled to be joining the board of directors of Netflix, a cutting-edge company whose leadership, high-quality productions, and unique culture I deeply admire,” Rice said in March.



Netflix on Monday suggested Rice had no involvement in bringing the Obamas to the company.

“Board members play no role in content decisions at Netflix," the spokesman said when asked about Rice's potential role. 

Netflix says the Obamas will produce a variety of content, including scripted series, unscripted series, docu-series, documentaries and features. 

“One of the simple joys of our time in public service was getting to meet so many fascinating people from all walks of life, and to help them share their experiences with a wider audience,” Obama said in a statement last week. “That’s why Michelle and I are so excited to partner with Netflix – we hope to cultivate and curate the talented, inspiring, creative voices who are able to promote greater empathy and understanding between peoples, and help them share their stories with the entire world.”

It's not yet known what specific projects the Obamas will tackle. Sarandos, during an event in New York on Tuesday, denied that the former first family would be using the platform to turn Netflix into “the Obama Network.”

“There’s no political slant to the programming,” Sarandos said of the planned Obama productions, according to Variety.

Sure there is. 
Trump would get the same deal.

The leftist hypocrisy...its like peanut butter and jelly




Unless you are living in a cave you know the show "Roseanne" was canceled because of this tweet referring to Valerie Jarrett. 





What course of action was taken when the left does the exact same thing. Let's see. 

Isn't that Whoppi Goldberg? Does she still have a job?





How about this one? Is she still employed?



This one's the capper.

Remember the WH Correspondents Dinner with the 'comedian' Michelle Wolf no one ever heard of?

Carrot top has a twin?


This is what she said about Sarah Huckabee Sanders.

"I actually really like Sarah. I think she’s very resourceful," the former “Daily Show” writer said. "She burns facts and then she uses that ash to create a perfect smoky eye. Maybe she’s born with it, maybe it’s lies. It’s probably lies."

"I'm never really sure what to call Sarah Huckabee Sanders," the comedian continued. "Is it Sarah Sanders? Is it Sarah Huckabee Sanders? Is it Cousin Huckabee? Is it Auntie Huckabee Sanders? Like, what's Uncle Tom but for white women who disappoint other white women?"

Sarah's reaction.


Certainly, there should be some action taken for these raucous, racist, statements made right in front of Sarah Huckabee Sanders.

There was.

Chelsea Clinton says Trump 'degrades what it means to be an American,' says Brits should protest his UK trip









10 Scandals Involving Hillary Clinton You May Have Forgotten

In fact, the Clinton's have been embroiled in so many scandals and lies they had to coin a new word to handle it all.

Clintonesque


Oh...and wasn't her father impeached and had his law license revoked?



Talk about degrading.

-----------------------------------------------



During a wide-ranging interview to promote her latest book, Chelsea Clinton said that President Trump “degrades what it means to be an American” and said she would protest his planned July visit to the U.K. if she was British. 

The former first daughter, who just published "She Persisted Around the World," blamed the Trump administration for having “mainlined hate” and cited reports of a rise in hate crimes — as documented by organizations like the Southern Poverty Law Center and the FBI.

“Not just the hundreds, but now thousands of instances in schools across America, where children are citing the president as they’re demeaning a little girl, or they’re chanting ‘Build a wall’ in an attempt to demean and degrade brown children,” she told the Guardian.

Trump made building a wall at America’s southern border a cornerstone of his 2016 presidential campaign, and, despite the fact that it has become comedic fodder for late-night talk show hosts —the wall is being built.

“I think those of us who have platforms to do that have to say this is wrong and unacceptable, so we don’t normalize it but try to detoxify what has been unleashed. Because if we don’t, we leave a vacuum. And I think the darkness fills that vacuum,” she added.
When asked by the Guardian how British people should respond to Trump’s planned visit in July, Clinton referenced her children, saying:

“Well, I’ve been to multiple protests since the election. Charlotte’s been to at least three, maybe four. Aidan’s been to one. If I lived in Britain I would show up to protest, because I don’t agree with what he’s doing to degrade what it means to be an American.”

Of her reported friendship with Ivanka Trump, current first daughter, and assistant to the president, Clinton said the two haven’t spoken “in a long time” and implied that Ivanka is fair game in terms of her advocacy for her father’s policies.

“She’s an adult. She can make the choices for herself. I mean, she’s 36. We are responsible for our choices. In 2008, I was really proud to support my mom — but I disagreed with her fundamentally on a few things, particularly her then opposition to equal marriage rights for LGBTQ Americans,” she explained. “I never defended that position, because it wasn’t what I believed was the right thing to do.”

Clinton said that liberals have been too focused on “tolerance” when it comes to different minority groups. In her view, that's not enough.

“People tolerated casual misogyny, but casual misogyny is maybe the gateway drug. We have freedom of speech, which I do think is hugely important — and yet people thought you couldn’t dispute hateful things because they’re like — well, it’s freedom of speech. Well, freedom of speech doesn’t mean there is freedom of consequences.”

The 38-year-old, who serves as vice chair of the Clinton Foundation and has two children with her husband Mark Mezvinsky, remains focused on electing Democrats but said the country will have a long way to go to repair the damage that’s been done.

“I think the wreckage that we’re seeing at this moment is one that will, I hope, be repaired on the policy standpoint when we elect Democrats,” Clinton said. “But I think we will still then have work to do on repairing the tone in our country, the exposure of the real racist and sexist, homophobic, Islamophobic and anti-Semitic feeling which is on the rise in our country – a rot that has been exposed.”
