    I want to update all of you who prayed for my Aunt Florence who was diagnosed with Covid-19. It is with a heavy heart to tell you that she passed away last night only six days after being diagnosed. She went very peacefully on angel's wings and I have no doubt that your prayers brought this about with hundreds of others who prayed. I am deeply grateful at the outpouring of concern from all of you who prayed and sent me messages. You are all very special and wonderful Americans whom I'm proud to associate with and call friends.

    The Russian military has allowed U.S. officials to inspect a hypersonic nuclear missile that Moscow claims can evade any American military defenses. According to Interfax, U.S. inspectors traveled to Russia this week on a two-day visit to see the weapon as part of the New START bilateral nuclear arms control treaty, which is set to expire in 2021. Russian President Vladimir Putin has said his forces would be ready to deploy the hypersonic Avangard missile by the end of 2019. It is one of a host of futuristic weapons announced by Putin in 2018, as he sought to advertise Russia's...

According to ABC News, prosecutors still want charges brought against the governor, but want a special prosecutor to bring them later. Prosecutors have acknowledged not having the supposed picture.

    Young Conservatives ^ | 7 June 2016 | Andrew Mark Miller
    Donald Trump got in a lot of trouble for criticizing the Mexican heritage of the judge that is presiding over the Trump University case. It obviously wasn’t his best moment but the media is overlooking the connection between this judge and La Raza which is a radical leftist group that basically doesn’t believe in borders and violently attacks anyone that disagrees with them. That is a huge factor in determining whether or not this judge can be fair in the case. That’s exactly what we saw from them in San Jose over the weekend.

    Conservative HQ ^ | 5/24/2016 | Jeffrey A. Rendall
    With Donald Trump now ahead in the Real Clear Politics polling average, it’s safe to declare the “Trump bump” is real. Since Ted Cruz left the race three weeks ago, The Donald has been busy meeting with Republican leaders, making media appearances and by the looks of it, purposely trying to steer away from anything too controversial that might get his name in the news for the wrong reasons.

    The Bull Elephant ^ | May 5, 2016 | Michael Giere
    “What the hell is “conservative” about uncontrolled immigration and corporate trade pacts?” Donald Trump’s electoral rampage through the Northeastern states and then his stunning Indiana victory – taking all but five counties statewide and walking away with 57 delegates – did a lot more than drive Ted Cruz and John Kasich out of the race. It has driven a stake in the heart of the post-1988 Republican Party. It’s dead.
