Donald Trump lays out his message to the nation. In an astonishing 76 minutes, Donald J. Trump, the Republican nominee for president has went there. I mean it was long rant about how Hillary Clinton, President Barack Obama, Muslims, immigrants, those who criticizes law enforcement being the enemy.
I will be blunt, I tuned out after 20 minutes. It was the longest and most unimpressive speech ever.
Trump was still in primary mode. He was hoping to bring the Republicans together. Alas, he didn't.
Someone on the inside allegedly leaked out Trump's acceptance speech tonight. The Hillary Clinton presidential campaign had all the ammunition to take down Trump.
Okay, I won't bore you too much with the details but it's the list of talkers who ended up on the floor before The Donald made his plea for president.
The man behind the most successful cable news channel is officially gone. Roger Ailes was fired out the cannon. As of 4:00pm news went out that the 76 year old political agitator and business mogul was loaded in the cannon and fired out the tent.
For a portion of his contract, he will stay on 21th Century Fox (Fox Television) until 2018.
Ailes public response leaked to The Drudge Report.
Dear Rupert,
With your support, I am proud that we have built Fox News and Fox Business Channels into powerful and lucrative news organizations that inform our audience and reward our shareholders. I take particular pride in the role that I have played advancing the careers of the many women I have promoted to executive and on-air positions. Many of these talented journalists have deservedly become household names known for their intelligence and strength, whether reporting the news, fair and balanced, and offering exciting opinions on our opinion programs. . Fox News has become Number 1 in all of cable because I consistently identified and promoted the most talented men and women in television, and they performed at the highest levels.
Having spent 20 years building this historic business, I will not allow my presence to become a distraction from the work that must be done every day to ensure that Fox News and Fox Business continue to lead our industry. I am confident that everyone at Fox News and Fox Business will continue as the standard setters that they are, and that the businesses are well positioned for even greater success in the future.
I am proud of our accomplishments and look forward to continuing to work with you as an adviser in building 21st Century Fox.
All the best,
Roger.
It was Gretchen Carlson and Megyn Kelly who took the controversial Republican media mogul down. Carlson sued Ailes for sexual harassment and wrongful termination. She managed to get other women to inform the Murdochs about the behind the scene antics of the Fox News network.
Rupert Murdoch and his sons James and Lachlan hired a law firm and did an investigation of all the workers and staff at News Corp. Some of the people working say that Roger was a nasty old guy who had a fixation for blonde women in mini skirts.
Megyn Kelly, then a reporter admitted that Ailes did harass her. It was enough to get Ailes out of Fox News effective immediately.
Ailes who has been a muckraker for most of his life finally got shafted by the Murdoch family.
The scandal comes as turmoil boils between Republicans at their own convention. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) disgraced the stage by not endorsing Donald Trump for president.
Melania Trump stole phrases from First Lady Michelle Obama and the speech was panned.
Mike Pence was extremely boring and his acceptance speech wasn't memorable. Cruz, Rudy Giuliani, David Clarke and Newt Gingrich were the biggest assholes of the night.
He leaves a company that he's ran since its beginnings in 1996.
The most divisive figure in politics has brewed up a shitstorm. His network continues on with its hatred of President Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Black Lives Matter and Muslims.
A network for over 20 years, Fox News has devoted its time, personalities and agenda to make Americans extremely cynical of one another.
No word from Bill O'Reilly, Greta Van Susteren, Megyn Kelly, and Sean "Softball" Hannity.
There's rumors going around the place that righties are mounting a walkout because of this.
If Sean "Softball" Hannity and Bill O'Reilly do leave Fox News, maybe it's a good thing for Ailes.
Ailes has been a profitable asset to Fox News. If he goes and take his loyal supporters with him, it could ruin the network.
Charles Kinsey is alive today. Counting his blessings that he wasn't killed by the law. Charles is an unarmed man who was a caretaker for an autistic man. His client ran away and he was looking for him.
Kinsey works at a mental health center, was trying to bring back a 23-year-old man who had wandered outside carrying a toy truck when police arrived, having received a 911 call about a man with a gun, the Miami Herald reports. In video taken just before Kinsey, who is black, was shot in the leg, he can be seen lying down and trying to persuade the heavyset autistic man, who is still playing with the truck, to do the same. "He has a toy truck," Kinsey yells to police. "I am a behavior tech at the group home. That's all this is."
Kinsey, 47 was shot in the leg with an assault rifle. The moment doesn't appear on video released by his lawyer, though one of the people filming can be heard wondering why they "shot the black boy instead of the fat boy." "When it hit me, I'm like, 'I still got my hands in the air, and I said, 'No, I just got shot!' And I'm saying, 'Sir, why did you shoot me?' and his words to me, he said, 'I don’t know,'" Kinsey tells WSVN. He says the worst part is that after he was shot, police handcuffed him and then left him bleeding in the street for what he estimates was 20 minutes. NBC Miami reports that the officer involved has been placed on administrative duty while police investigate. Kinsey was hospitalized for the gunshot wound, but he could be released as soon as Thursday.
Well according to the law, there was a man with a gun in the area. So they obviously run towards the danger. What they see what two men and they ordered them to have their hands up.
Well the client was incapable of listening because he's severely autistic. But the caretaker was on the ground belly up with his hands up.
And yet he was shot by the police. When asked why he was shot, the law said he don't know.
Now the name #CharlesKinsey is trending and the supporters of Black Lives Matter are calling out Fox News, Milwaukee County sheriff David Clarke, Jr. and Rudy Giuliani for not mentioning this in their feud against the group.
The North Miami Police is under fire for this one.
The officer who shot Kinsey is in the freezer pending a state and federal investigation.
Okay, how long will it take for conservatives to find some reason to claim this was a justified shooting?
When will conservative justify the shooting by trolling for incriminating evidence on social media?
When will we hear agitators say the officer needs the benefit of the doubt?
No comments from the AM agitators yet Obviously they don't have anything that incriminates Charles.
When will they blame President Barack Obama for this?
Day three of the Republican Convention in Cleveland. The world gets introduced to the running mate of Donald J. Trump. He is Indiana governor Mike Pence. He's relatively controversial for a Midwestern governor.
He was the second pick. According to CBS, the Trump campaign was seriously vetting the failed presidential candidate John Kasich as their running mate. Kasich is the current governor of Ohio.
Kasich refuses to endorse Trump. He stayed clear of Cleveland.
Paul Ryan formally introduced Mike Pence to the stage.
Pence right off the bat went to defending his past days as a lawmaker in Washington. He talks about his life, his family and why he chose to be the running mate for Trump instead of running for reelection governor of Indiana. He was critical of President Barack Obama, Bernie Sanders and Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton. I am going to be honest. I was bored with his speech.
I was bored with the speech of failed presidential candidate Scott Walker. Walker is the current governor of Wisconsin. He was the first serious candidate to drop out the race. He was speaking to a bored RNC audience.
Eric Trump got an opportunity to give mad props to his dad. He said the usual disgust with Obama, Clinton, government regulations, his faith, his family and why the need to support his dad is very important. It was a bore.
Former astronaut Eileen Collins didn't endorse Donald Trump and it got some major attention.
It was the conservative agitator Laura Ingraham, the failed 2012 presidential candidate and washed up politico Newt Gingrich and failed presidential candidate Ted Cruz who got the crowd on their feet.
Newt "Frankly" Gingrich got praised for his sharp tongue. His attacks on Obama, Clinton, Muslims and Black Lives Matter got huge standing ovations.
Ted Cruz stole the show by not endorsing Trump. He was booed by the Republicans.
Here's the videos

For good measure, Ted Cruz getting interrupted by Donald Trump's plane.
The second night of the Republican National Convention in Cleveland.
It's official Donald J. Trump will be the nominee for the Republican Party.
The bombastic business and media mogul has finally accomplish his goal. He's now representing a party somewhat enthusiastic about their chances against Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton.
Right now they are statistically tied. Both candidates are equally hated. Both candidates are equally polarizing. I believe most of the criticism of Hillary Clinton is based on sexism.
President Barack Obama right now enjoys job approvals in the high 50s. He, Bill Clinton, Vice President Joe Biden will speak at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia next week. Clinton will pick her running mate on Thursday and have an event Saturday. Andrea Mitchell will likely have the first interview with the Democratic candidate and her running mate.
Most of the speakers at the "Make America Work Again" event were simply attacking President Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders, and others.
Ben Carson, Chris Christie, Donald Trump, Jr., Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell, and Shelley Moore Capito were expected to talk about jobs, economy and prosperity.
Of course, they go into attacking Clinton and Obama with ugly rhetoric. The ugly memes were "Lock Her Up", "Hi-LIAR-y" and "Lucifer" aimed at Clinton.
Fox News chief Roger Ailes isn't having a good day. Rupert Murdoch gave Ailes two opinions, get fired out the cannon or quit the job.
Sources report that 21th Century Fox Entertainment and Fox News CEO Roger Ailes is about to be fired out the cannon.
Fox News's brain and mastermind behind the most successful cable news channel is under fire for sexual harassment. His reckoning came from Gretchen Carlson. The former anchor filed a federal lawsuit against him and he's trying to get it dismissed.
He claims that she's bitter. But in reality, he's bitter. His past is coming back to haunt him.
James and Lachlan Murdoch are the sons and investors of News Corp, the international mass media company founded by their father Rupert Murdoch.
Gretchen Carlson admits that Fox News is GOP propaganda.
Murdoch is very concerned about the allegations. Now it's reported that all media personalities will be interviewed and recorded for comments said by Ailes.
Gretchen found an ally in five other women. But what got me rocked out of my seat is the one woman I would never expect aid Gretchen in her fight against Ailes.
I was not expecting this!
Megyn Kelly told investigators that Ailes sexually harassed her. This bombshell also falls in suit of the feud between Kelly and Donald Trump. When Trump was berating Kelly during the primaries, Ailes and his acolytes weren't helping her out.
She took a few weeks off after the dustup. Trump and Kelly sort of settled their feud.
Megyn Kelly gets a shout out for taking down the biggest asshole in the junk food media that's not Donald Trump.
Many media figures have somewhat defended him. But the evidence is there and now those pinheads on the couch Steve Doocy, Brian Kilmeade, and Ainsley Earhardt got to be retrained.
Tucker Carlson, Greg Gutfeld, Chris Wallace, Bret Baier, Keith Ablow, Geraldo Rivera, Martha MacCallum, Bill Hemmer, Shepard Smith, Jon Scott, Jenna Lee, Sean "Softball" Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, Neil Cavuto, and Greta Van Susteren have to report to investigators and be retained on their behavior in the workplace.
I can say that Bill O'Reilly, Shepard Smith, Softball Hannity, Brian Kilmeade, Steve Doocy, and Greg Gutfeld better start looking over their shoulder.
O'Reilly, Smith, Kilmeade and Doocy were accused by women and men of sexual harassment.
No word of any comments from Gretchen Carlson or Roger Ailes. No comment from Fox News or the News Corp folks.
Stay tuned to the story. Biggest media story of the year.
Melania Trump getting slammed for ripping off First Lady Michelle Obama's speech in 2008.
The Republican National Convention in Cleveland. Day one went down in history as one of the most angriest I've seen or heard. Donald Trump sure knows how to pick 'em.
I was at work when all the drama happened. I did managed to listen to the circling firing squad of bigots.
Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA), Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR), Sen. Jeff Session (R-AL), Darryl Glenn, Michael Flynn, Marcus Luttrell, David Clarke, Jr. Scott Baio, Rudy Giuliani, Pat Smith, Antonio Sabato, Jr.,and headliner Melania Trump were "Make America Safe" by bashing Hillary Clinton, President Barack Obama, Black Lives Matter, Muslims, and immigrants.
The whole event was controversial.
What was the biggest controversy of the whole event was the allegations that Melania ripped off First Lady Michelle Obama's 2008 speech. The speech the wife of Republican nominee was doing her introduction. Many speculators claim that the words seem oddly similar to the first lady.
Rudy Giuliani raised the bar on Black Lives Matter. He outcrazied David Clarke, Jr., the controversial sheriff of Milwaukee County, Wisconsin with the rhetoric targeting protesters against police brutality as a bunch of racists. Clarke called the movement a terrorist group. The Republicans cheered when the Baltimore police officers got off criminal indictment charges for the death of Freddie Gray.
The delegates who didn't support Donald Trump were none too happy. Their last ditch effort to stop Trump went down in flames. They did a walkout protest against Trump.
Pat Smith and the former Navy Seal Marcus Luttrell accused Obama and Clinton of being murderers.
Sen. Ernst got embarrassed. After Melania finished her speech, attendees bounced. Ernst got to speak to an nearly empty arena. It was a big flub for her.
Baio, a washed up celebrity in his own right had an opportunity to trash Clinton and Obama by calling them out for giving moochers "free stuff". Dog whistle rhetoric. He also slammed Clinton in an offensive meme. It labeled her a cunt.
I will give you the most controversial parts of the RNC Day 1
