It's 5 and 10 for July 12, 2017.
I'm Derek Gilbert.
Topic number five today, a deadly crash in Mississippi.
A Marine Corps KC-130 or similar variant of aircraft crashed in western Mississippi
Monday afternoon, around 4 p.m. local time, killing as many as 16 people.
Marine bodies were removed from the crash site that spanned over 5 miles, about 85 miles
north of Jackson.
15 of the victims were active-duty Marines.
The 16th was a Navy corpsman, six of the Marines, and the Navy sailor from the Marine
Corps Special Operations Command.
Topic number four, DARPA's Brain Modem, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency,
allocating about $65 million to develop a brain-computer interface that would allow
soldiers to plug directly into or at least connect via Wi-Fi or some other wireless means
to computers.
The DARPA program wants to develop an implantable neural interface to facilitate signal resolution
and data transfer between the human brain and the digital world.
Four teams responsible for increasing vision and two working on hearing and speech.
The military adds this will help develop new treatments for patients with sensory disorders.
The program being backed by Brown University, Columbia University, the Seeing and Hearing
Foundation, John B. Pierce Laboratory, Paradromics Incorporated, and the University of California.
Now, we're all in favor of technology that would help restore functionality and help
restore quality of life to soldiers who've been injured, but when it comes to DARPA,
the one question you have to ask about any project it's involved with is how can the
technology be weaponized?
Topic number three, ISIS 2.0.
The battle for Mosul may be over.
That was the ISIS stronghold in northern Iraq, but the senior U.S. commander on the ground
in Iraq is urging the Shiite-dominated government in Baghdad to reach out to the Sunni Arab community,
which is the minority in Iraq, to ensure that ISIS, which is Sunni, Salafist Sunni, that
ISIS 2.0 doesn't emerge from the ashes.
Lieutenant General Stephen Townsend said if we're to keep ISIS 2.0 from emerging, the
Iraqi government is going to have to do something pretty significantly different.
They're going to have to reach out and reconcile with the Sunni population and make them feel
like the government in Baghdad represents them.
And on Wednesday afternoon, 36 hours after the government in Baghdad declared victory
over ISIS, Iraqi soldiers engaged in yet another firefight with ISIS militants still holding
out in the old city of Mosul, which, by the way, now looks a lot like this.
Topic number two, a Russian or the Russians.
Donald Trump Jr. has released an email chain that documents him setting up a meeting at
Trump Tower with a Russian attorney with ties to the Kremlin.
The email correspondence seemed to offer the younger Trump the opportunity to get some
dirt on the Hillary Clinton campaign.
The release of this email chain, allegedly between Trump Jr. and a British music publicist
named Rob Goldstone, comes after the media launched into a feeding frenzy over this meeting
when it was published by the New York Times over the weekend.
This meeting took place in January of 2016 during the presidential campaign.
Now, Democrats like Senator Mark Warner of Virginia are really making hay out of this
new announcement, this new development.
Quote, this is the first time the public has seen clear evidence of senior level members
of the Trump campaign meeting with Russians, Russians plural, to try to obtain information
that might hurt the campaign of Hillary Clinton, end quote.
Now see what he did there.
Trump Jr. along with his brother-in-law Jared Kushner and then campaign chairman Paul Manafort
met with a Russian, the attorney, Natalia Veselnitskaya.
I've been practicing on that name.
And by saying Russians, they conflate and then see the idea that it wasn't just a Russian,
but the Russians that the Trump campaign was meeting with, as if this particular attorney
was on Vladimir Putin's speed dial, which she denies by the way.
But there are a couple of curious things about this meeting and about this attorney.
For one, Veselnitskaya appeared at a congressional committee hearing, the House Foreign Relations
Committee, just five days after meeting with Donald Trump Jr. at Trump Tower as the guest
of President Obama's ambassador to Russia, Mike McFall, who made the rounds of cable
news shows over the last month or so talking about the vast Russian conspiracy.
So why was Veselnitskaya working with members of the Obama administration just less than
a week after meeting with the Trump campaign?
I think that's a fair question to ask, but I haven't seen it from the New York Times
or any of the liberal media.
The media seems to be applying an incredible double standard here, even for them, because
Donald Trump Jr. is being raked over the coals for attending a meeting, which he describes
as a waste of time.
In other words, he didn't get any useful information on the Hillary campaign, while the Democratic
National Committee and the Hillary Clinton campaign are getting a free pass for doing
exactly what Donald Trump Jr. is accused of wanting to do, that is colluding with a foreign
government to try to affect the outcome of the presidential election.
The DNC and the Hillary Clinton campaign, according to a report published by Politico
in January, worked with members of the government of Ukraine and American and Ukrainian journalists
to dig up dirt on the Donald Trump campaign.
This information was coordinated by a DNC operative who formerly worked in the Clinton
White House named Alexandra Chalupa.
She collaborated with Ukrainian government officials and journalists, American and Ukrainian,
to dig up Russia-related opposition research to try to derail the Trump campaign.
She shared this research with the DNC and with the Hillary campaign, according to Politico.
So where are the cries of treason?
Where are the calls for a congressional investigation?
Why is Keith Overman not shouting into a camera in his basement?
Oh, wait, he actually is, but he's still going on about Russians and Donald Trump.
And topic number one, the backlash against the media from all this, the obsession of
the media with trying to take down Donald Trump, is having some consequences where it
really hurts like in the wallet.
Even though the New York Times has seen an increase since the election in its digital
subscriptions, it is not enough to offset the loss in print advertising.
At the end of June, the New York Times announced it was laying off about half of its copy editors,
which prompted a walkout of the newsroom.
The Washington Post this past weekend kicked off a Twitter storm when it published a story
linking James T. Hodgkinson, the gentleman who went to Alexandria of Virginia and shot
House Majority Whip Steve Scalise, and a number of others involved in the Republican
Congressman's baseball practice for the annual congressional baseball game, because a racist
right-wing radio broadcaster in Belleville, Illinois just happens to be located in the
same town that Hodgkinson lived in, of course he was shot dead as part of the exchange of
fire with police officers.
Hodgkinson, remember, was a Bernie Sanders supporter, volunteered for the Sanders campaign,
and he targeted Republican congressmen.
And yet the Washington Post went to Belleville, Illinois to try to link Hodgkinson to a Donald
Trump broadcaster, racist right-winger, on a small radio station no one's ever heard
of, frankly.
Look, I was a broadcaster in St. Louis.
I lived in St. Louis for 17 years.
The station that this guy broadcasts on, you can barely hear it west of the Mississippi
River, and there's no evidence that Hodgkinson even knew who this guy was, or listened to
him.
And yet the Post ran the story trying to link the two.
Even liberal reporters are tweeting and saying, what was the point of this?
And finally CNN, and the most recent primetime cable ratings, have dropped to 13th place
That means on any given week night, more people are watching FX, Nick at night, and investigation
discovery than CNN.
That's what happens when you keep publishing and broadcasting fake news.

In 2006, one month from the day Mark Taylor retired from his post as a career firefighter,
he was suddenly overcome by a Holy Spirit-guided supernatural vision of the future.
This revelation, as the world would soon discover, was a message to the most powerful nation
on earth.
The Spirit of God says, I have chosen this man, Donald Trump, for such a time as this.
It's time to embrace our glorious American destiny.
Anything we can dream for our country.
We can achieve for our country.
America will once again stand hand in hand with Israel, and the two shall be his one.
I want the Israeli people to know that the United States stands with Israel.
The dollar will be the strongest that has ever been in history of the United States,
and will once again be the currency by which all others are judged.
The economy is booming under this president.
We're up 254 points, 21,000 on the Dow.
They will say things about this man, the enemy, but it will not affect him.
Well, he's kind of a comic book figure.
I mean, he's a show-off.
He's a sideshow who threatens to swallow the Republican Party.
He was attacked by other people who were running with him.
His poll numbers would go up, theirs would go down, even to the point where they got
kicked out of the race.
He would not be the commander in chief we need to keep our country safe.
Donald, adults learn not to interrupt you.
We are suspending our campaign.
I am suspending my campaign.
This next election will be a clean sweep for the man that I have chosen.
Donald Trump will never be elected president of the United States.
Donald looks like Harry's the next president.
On election day 2016, the world witnessed the impossible when in the final hour, the map
turned red.
Donald J. Trump is the president of the United States.
Donald Trump is going to be our president.
Well, my crystal ball has been shattered into atoms here because I predicted the exact opposite
of what happened.
But the election of 2016 was only the beginning.
