Updated: Facebook late last night has responded to the charge of manipulating trend results.
The accusation reported by Gizmodo.com: Facebook “routinely suppressed news stories of interest to conservative readers from the social network’s influential ‘trending’ news section, according to a former journalist who worked on the project.” The response was provided by Facebook’s “Vice President of Search.”

It is a fait accompli; Donald Trump will be the GOP nominee for President.
Here in Oklahoma, Sen. Ted Cruz received the most votes and Sen. Marco Rubio made a strong showing. Mr. Trump had (and has) a dedicated following, but he lacks overt support among a significant portion of this state’s Republican voters and he retains a large and vocal group of Republican activists who are openly antagonistic to him.
It’s only been a short time since Cruz and Gov. John Kasich suspended their campaigns and healing takes time.
Islamic and Communist Supremacists agree.
Media in Brownsville, Texas is reporting today that the number of people crossing America’s southern border illegally is on the rise to a point consistent with the surge two years ago.
Chief Patrol Agent and Commander of the South Texas Corridor Manuel Padilla Jr. insisted this time, his agents are better prepared and border security isn’t in jeopardy. Others suggest that with the Obama Administration’s encouragement, more are coming, less are held and services to quickly relocate the invaders hide them until they can vote for Democrats.

Today Donald Trump presented at the Center for the National Interest a policy speech in stark contrast to his usual happy hour styled popcorn bits. This was substantive. An adult conversation that may calm those that believe he mostly worships in the mirror preening Right rather than Left as does Barack Obama.
The National Interest advisory council and the Center’s board of directors took part as did Grover Norquist, repeatedly linked to operatives for the Muslim Brotherhood. Other participants included Senator Jeff Sessions, several Members of the House of Representatives and the ambassadors of Italy, Philippines, Russia and Singapore.
Hillary Clinton, the first presidential candidate in American History to campaign while under investigation by the FBI.
While many media have covered the Hillary Clinton email scandal, the year the FBI effort has taken to date has raised additional speculations.
Some analysts are now suggesting that more agents than announced are engaged on multiple subjects and topics may include charges of influence peddling and corruptions from the Clinton Foundation to the Department of State and beyond.
The Daily Caller posted a story Thursday with video of FBI Director James Comey at the Aspen Security Forum in London asserting that he has no “set timetable” for wrapping up the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private email server and that the probe could even extend beyond the Democratic National Committee’s convention in July.
