Trump pushes back at NYT reporter

"Trump, speaking to supporters in South Carolina on Tuesday, was defending his remarks about
Muslims in Jersey City supposedly celebrating 9/11 when he called out reporter Serge Kovaleski — whose Washington Post article Trump quoted.
Kovaleski, who now works for The New York Times, said recently he didn’t remember “thousands, or even hundreds, of people celebrating.”“Now the poor guy, you ought to see the guy,” Trump said, mimicking the reporter. “‘Uhh, I don’t know what I said. I don’t remember.’ ” yahoo

"Thanksgiving just came early for Donald Trump.

Russia - Turkey CRISES

"NATO faced being thrust into a new Middle Eastern crisis on Tuesday after warplanes from
member state Turkey shot down a Russian jet that Turkish officials said had violated their country’s airspace on the border with Syria.
The incident marked a serious escalation in the Syrian conflict that is likely to further strain relations between Russia and the NATO alliance.
Russian officials confirmed that a Russian Su-24 attack aircraft was shot down Tuesday morning but insisted it had not violated Turkey’s airspace.
Russia’s Defense Ministry said one of at least two pilots probably died during the incident, and a marine also was killed by apparent Syrian insurgent fire during a helicopter rescue operation to retrieve the downed airmen.
The downing brings renewed attention to a scenario feared for months by the Pentagon and its partners: a potential conflict arising from overlapping air missions over Syria — with Russia backing the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and a U.S.-led coalition conducting airstrikes against the Islamic State."

There are whole agencies set up to put them in government housing, government cash assistance and they're basically put into our welfare programs...

One of the biggest supporters of Sunni terrorism in the world is Saudi Arabia, Qatar is up there, UAE
is up there. Sometimes government, sometimes private donors. What I would say is no more sales of any arms to these countries until they start accepting refugees. The Gulf states have poured gasoline on this fire, they have not taken a refugee. Iran has not taken in refugees and they've been an arsonist in this situation as well. So those who live there need to step up and we need to say we're not going to sell arms to you anymore if you're not willing to do your fair share." ABC

Clinton threatens comics

"In what appears to be a first for a serious presidential contender, Hillary Clinton’s campaign is
going after five comedians who made fun of the former Secretary of State in standup skits at a popular Hollywood comedy club.
A video of the short performance, which is less than three minutes, is posted on the website of the renowned club, Laugh Factory, and the Clinton campaign has tried to censor it. Besides demanding that the video be taken down, the Clinton campaign has demanded the personal contact information of the performers that appear in the recording. This is no laughing matter for club owner Jamie Masada, a comedy guru who opened Laugh Factory more than three decades ago and has been instrumental in launching the careers of many famous comics. “They threatened me,” Masada told Judicial Watch. “I have received complains before but never a call like this, threatening to put me out of business if I don’t cut the video.” yahoo

You’re going to have to watch and study the mosques because a lot of talk is going on at the mosques,” Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump says on MSNBC when asked what should be done to protect U.S. citizens.

    in and around mosques in New York City and I understand our mayor totally cut that out

Dem Debate Analysis

"The event took place in the shadow of the horrifying attacks in Paris, and as such, the first section
focused heavily on foreign policy, an area in which Bernie Sanders and Martin O'Malley don't demonstrate much interest. Clinton came in for criticisms, but none really landed.
The second section turned domestic, and got more lively, but neither challenger really landed the body blows against Clinton they needed to. They had the material — her Wall Street ties, her more moderate take on the minimum wage — but she parried the attacks well, and was never caught unprepared. Sanders and O'Malley desperately needed big moments to give them momentum with the Iowa caucuses less than three months away. They didn't get those moments, and so Clinton won by default." vox

"Jeb Bush argued Wednesday that he’d be a “better bet” than Marco Rubio in a general election matchup against Hillary Clinton, but he appeared to be at odds with his own super PAC over a potential attack strategy against the Florida senator.
Speaking to reporters after holding a town hall here, Bush was asked whether he thinks Rubio, whose relationship with the former Florida governor goes back more than a decade, could beat Clinton next November.
I’m a better bet,” Bush said. “I got a proven record and I campaign in a way that’s based on that record and based on ideas that I’ve had. I’ve been vetted. I’ve been tested. I’m an open book.” MarkLevin

Trump on Missouri University Crises

"Donald Trump blasted the recent University of Missouri protests, which he called "disgraceful,"
during a Thursday-morning interview on Fox Business Network.
"I think it's disgusting. I think it's disgusting," the Republican presidential candidate began when asked about the university.
Weeks of protests over racial tensions have rocked the campus, leading University of Missouri president Tim Wolfe to resign on Monday. Chancellor R. Bowen Loftin also said he would step down at the end of the year.
But Trump argued that it was a "weak" move for the two leaders to step aside.
"I think the two people that resigned are weak, ineffective people," he said. "I think that when they resigned, they set something in motion that's going to be a disaster for the next long period of time. They were weak, ineffective people."
Trump added: "Trump should have been the chancellor of that university. Believe me, there would have been no resignations."
He also slammed the "crazy" demands of the leading student-protest group, Concerned Student 1950, which, are a list of sweeping actions to address racial tensions at the school.
Those included that the university increase its percentage of black faculty and staff on campus to 10%, a handwritten apology, and a mandatory "comprehensive racial awareness and inclusion curriculum" overseen by students and faculty of color." yahoo

Christie was demoted to undercard debate

"Christie de­livered an­oth­er strong de­bate per­form­ance Tues­day, re­kind­ling hope that des­pite a de­mo­tion to the un­der­card event, the New Jer­sey gov­ernor’s nat­ur­al cha­risma and blunt style is giv­ing the long-shot cam­paign a chance to build mo­mentum as the GOP pres­id­en­tial primary heats up. 
Christie didn’t dom­in­ate a de­bate in which his trio of foes—Mike Hucka­bee, Bobby Jin­dal, and Rick San­tor­um—each had a hand­ful of im­press­ive mo­ments dur­ing the hour-long event in Mil­wau­kee. But his hu­mor, firm grip on the is­sues, and—above all—un­re­lent­ing fo­cus on likely Demo­crat­ic pres­id­en­tial nom­in­ee Hil­lary Clin­ton helped him rise above the fray.

Cruz scores with focus group in Debate

"Ted Cruz struck gold with his comments on immigration at Tuesday night’s debate, delivering
remarks that resonated well with a Fox News focus group composed of New Hampshire primary voters.
The Democrats are laughing, because if Republicans join Democrats as the party of amnesty, we will lose,” Cruz said.
 “And, you know, I understand that when the mainstream media covers immigration, it doesn’t often see it as an economic issue,” he continued. “But, I can tell you for millions — of Americans at home watching this, it is a very personal economic issue. And, I will say the politics of it will be very, very different if a bunch of lawyers or bankers were crossing the Rio Grande. Or if a bunch of people with journalism degrees were coming over and driving down the wages in the press.”
Cruz then hit things home with a line that drew loud applause from the crowd.
And, I will say for those of us who believe people ‘ought to come to this country legally, and we should enforce the law, we’re tired of being told it’s anti-immigrant,” he said. “It’s offensive.” TheBlaze

Well, you know, Lee Atwater was a very good friend of mine, as you may have known,” Trump said on ABC’s “This Week” on Sunday.
And I was asked that question by Lee. He said what do you think of that idea?” Trump continued. “I said, 'I don’t know, Lee, you can check it out if you want but it doesn’t sound right,' because at that time I had no political aspiration.

Dems pounce on Hillary in S.C.

"ROCK HILL, S.C. (AP) — The Democratic primary race entered a new phase on Friday night, with Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and former Gov. Martin O'Malley escalating their criticism of front-runner Hillary Rodham Clinton.
 But in South Carolina on Friday night, there was a bit less Southern gentility on display.
In individual interviews with MSNBC host Rachel Maddow, both Sen. Bernie Sanders and former Gov. Martin O'Malley cast themselves as the party's liberal standard-bearers, questioning Clinton's commitment to the causes Democrats hold dear.
Though careful never to mention Clinton by name, Sanders drew a sharp contrast with her on
everything from campaign finance reform to foreign affairs.
He noted his opposition to the war in Iraq and his refusal to accept super PAC donations and said he opposes the Obama administration's recent decision to send special forces to Syria, a position that Clinton supports. He also undermined Clinton's opposition to the Keystone XL pipeline, which was officially rejected by President Barack Obama's administration hours earlier after a years long campaign by liberal activists." msn

Cruz, Jindal & Huckabee on Religous Freedom

"Protecting religious liberty was the focal point for Republican presidential candidates Gov. Bobby Jindal, former Gov. Mike Huckabee and Sen. Ted Cruz during the Freedom 2015 National Religious Liberties Conference in downtown Des Moines on Friday.
Christians are under physical assault all over the world and Christian values are under assault right here at home,” said Jindal, of Louisiana. “Four more years of these radical left policies, we won't even recognize our country anymore.”
The two-day conference focused on religious liberty and Christian values. Organizers said 1,700 people registered for the conference and to see the candidates speak.
"Any president who doesn’t begin everyday on his knees isn’t fit to be commander-in-chief," Cruz, from Texas, said when asked about the importance of that the president fear God.
All three candidates took time to mention Kim Davis, a Kentucky county clerk who made national headlines after refusing to issue same-sex marriage licenses. They all said she has the right to exercise her religious views.
Who would have ever thought that an elected county clerk in Kentucky would be put in jail by a federal judge for believing exactly what Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton believed about marriage just three and a half years ago?” Huckabee, of Arkansas, said. "Our religious liberties are under assault."
In order to protect religious liberty, though, Cruz said religious conservatives will need to leave their
homes on election night. He called Friday for those voters to energize pastors and other believers and remind them that “we have a responsibility, as scripture tells us, to be watchmen on the walls."
"If another 10 million evangelical Christians vote in 2016 and simply vote our values, we won’t be up at three in the morning wondering what happened in Ohio and Florida," Cruz said. "They’ll call the election at 8:35 p.m. because Christians would have turned this country around."
Following their speeches, Jindal and Huckabee each spoke with reporters about Cruz.
Jindal, Huckabee and Cruz are all competing for similar groups of voters, particularly evangelical Christians.
Huckabee was questioned on how he would garner voters, especially when candidates like Cruz are better funded.
"People need to ask themselves if they only want to vote for someone because they have money or because they have poll numbers, or because they're tested, proven and ready to do the job," Huckabee said, not mentioning Cruz by name. "You won't even hire someone to mow your lawn that has never started a lawn mower. You won't. So we're going to send someone to the Oval Office that has never ever governed?"
Jindal said he is prepared to debate Cruz anytime, noting that both of the candidates will be in Milwaukee at the same time next week.
"Ted Cruz, he loves to shut down the government over Obamacare, but he's yet to come up with his own plan," Jindal said. "All these guys talk about getting rid of Obamacare. We're the only one with a plan." DesMoinesRegister

WINDHAM — Plans for a Hillary Clinton campaign-stop here next week stirred up a bit of tension Friday over who will foot the bill for the town’s extra security precautions at the event.

Assistant Fire Chief Ed Morgan said he planned to have two firefighters and an ambulance on hand at the event, to the tune of about $300 in overtime. Police Chief Gerald Lewis said there would be some police officers — the number yet to be determined — costing no more than $1,000.

Morgan, Lewis and town administrator David Sullivan all emphasized that the decision was strictly a matter of public safety, not politics.

Muslim stabbing spree in California

"A handwritten manifesto carried by a California college student whose stabbing spree Wednesday left four wounded bore names of his targets, a vow “to cut someone’s head off” and as many as five reminders to “praise Allah,” law enforcement authorities told FoxNews.com, while insisting that neither terrorism nor religion appear to be motives in the attack.

In the two-page document found in Faisal Mohammad’s pocket by the county coroner, the 18-year-old freshman wrote a numeric list outlining his plans of who he wanted to kill, and how, including beheading and shooting his victims, Merced County Sheriff Vern Warnke told FoxNews.com
 No. 27 was to ‘make sure people are tied down,’ No. 28 was “sit down and praise Allah,'” Warnke said. “I remember seeing four or five times, scribbled on the side of the two-page manifesto, where he wrote something like ‘praise Allah.’” FOX
