Donald Trump Washington (Telephost) - The pastor of a black church interrupted Donald Trump’s remarks in Flint, Michigan, on Wednesday as the Republican presidential nominee began to attack his Democratic opponent, Hillary Clinton. “Mr. Trump, I invited you here to thank us for what we’ve done in Flint, not to give a political speech,” the Rev. Faith Green Timmons told Trump as she approached the businessman. Trump turned to the pastor and immediately changed course. “Oh, oh, oh, OK, that’s good. Then I’m going to back on Flint. OK,” he said, before addressing the community once more. Trump spoke in front of about 50 Flint residents at Bethel United Methodist Church, which has distributed aid and water to the community during the lead crisis that started in 2014. The GOP nominee praised residents for their response to the crisis, before launching into an attack against Clinton and her support for trade agreements such as NAFTA. Earlier in the day, he toured the city’s water treatment ...

Hillary Clinton leaves her daughter Chelsea’s home in New York, New York, United States New York (Telephost) - Hillary Clinton’s campaign released an updated letter from her doctor Wednesday, following her disclosure over the weekend that she had been diagnosed with pneumonia.

Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin Kentucky (Telephost) - Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin said conservatives may need to turn to physical violence in order to protect the United States against contemporary liberalism. The Republican governor put forth the controversial suggestion after speaking of the “degradation of society” during an impassioned, 15-minute speech at the Values Voter Summit in Washington, D.C., on Saturday. The provocative comments started to gain national attention at the start of this week. “America is worth fighting for ideologically. I want us to be able to fight ideologically, mentally, spiritually, economically, so that we don’t have to do it physically. But that may, in fact, be the case,” he told the crowd. Bevin suggested that if Democrat Hillary Clinton were elected president, she would set the nation on a dangerous course that might require bloodshed to correct. He told the audience that the “candle” of liberty might go out “on our watch.” To hammer home his point, he para...

The Trump Foundation uses money from other people to finance Trump’s high-profile charity giving. New York (Telephost) - New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said Tuesday that his office has launched an ongoing “inquiry” into whether the nonprofit Donald J. Trump Foundation is “complying with the laws governing charities in New York.” The revelation about the Trump Foundation comes in the wake of numerous media reports that raised questions about whether the foundation’s operational and funding structures complied with tax laws governing nonprofits. The Huffington Post raised many of these questions in January. Schneiderman is also leading a case against Trump and his associates over Trump University, the Republican presidential nominee’s now-shuttered seminar program. The attorney general launched his case against Trump University in 2013 and has called the Trump U program “a fraud from beginning to end.” Speaking on CNN Tuesday, Schneiderman said his office has been “looking ...
