I need to take the media to task. But it does need to be said that the Trump people have made a series of missteps around Russia. The way they have handled this has kept the media on their trail.

But for all the people who are shocked by the recent Donald Trump Jr. revelations, what about Hillary Clinton and the Ukrainian connection?

When everything goes to a Spinal Tap “11,” then everything is a “1.” News outlets are taking this to such an extreme level.

The news media is draining any credibility they have with Conservatives because they aren’t reporting the other side of the issues. And, now, they are saying that Trump Jr.’s actions are treason!

Media, you will no longer be able to warn me about anything. Because you twist so much information and have such loyalty to the letter “D,” I can never take you seriously again.

Hillary continually met with Ukrainian contacts to dig up dirt on Donald Trump. But the news is ignoring that story.

As always, please listen to the full audio clip for complete context.

As heat becomes more extreme, inmates are increasingly threatened by rising temperatures

Steve Brooks’ cell has no windows or air conditioning, so he relies on two eight-inch fans when it’s stifling inside California’s oldest prison. There’s no access to ice or cold water, and during periodic power outages, there’s no electricity. “It’s kind of like you’re hyperventilating.
