NEW POLL: Pro-Trump Businessman Leading Establishment Senator


Nevada Senator Dean Heller is looking to keep his seat against fellow Republican and anti-establishment candidate Danny Tarkanian.
In the first poll of Nevada’s primary, the outsider businessman and vocal Trump supporter, Tarkanian, is leading by six points.
Per the Hill:
The survey from JMC Analytics finds Tarkanian at 44 percent and Heller at 38 percent. Seventeen percent say they are undecided.
Tarkanian, who has never won elected office despite five previous bids, is viewed favorably by 59 percent of Nevadans and unfavorably by 24 percent. Heller, the first-term incumbent, is at 51 percent favorable and 43 unfavorable.

Republican primaries across the nation could be hotly contested with the anti-establishment movement looking to take seats from more centralist incumbents:
Republicans are bracing for a nasty primary season that is breaking along establishment and grassroots lines. The 2018 contests will pit Breitbart News chairman Stephen Bannon against Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and the incumbents he is trying to protect.
Bannon is recruiting primary challengers for every Republican senator seeking reelection in 2018 except for Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas.). It is widely expected that Breitbart and an outside group run by Bannon’s allies will support Tarkanian in the race over Heller.
President Donald Trump has yet to endorse either candidate, but his opinion could make an impact in the polls:
Trump figures to weigh heavily over the race. Eighty-five percent of those polled have a favorable view of the president. Eighty-six percent said they’d be more likely to vote for a candidate who supports the president’s agenda.
The poll of 500 registered voters in Nevada was conducted between Oct. 24 and Oct. 26 and has a 4.4 percentage point margin of error.
Gov. Palin endorsed Tarkanian early in his campaign:
“Danny Tarkanian is a conservative outsider who will support the ‘America First’ policies our nation needs to survive and thrive, including building the border wall, ending sanctuary cities, and finally repealing Obamacare,” Palin said in the statement endorsing Tarkanian, provided exclusively to Breitbart News. “Commonsense Conservatives in Nevada and across America need to unite and help win this critical fight. I strongly endorse Danny Tarkanian for the United States Senate and look forward to helping him win this important election.”

SOUTHWEST AIRLINES: PICTURE OF PASSENGERS DURING EMERGENCY LANDING SHOWS WHY YOU SHOULD ALWAYS WATCH THE SAFETY VIDEO

Image
The recent Southwest Airlines tragedy that claimed the life of a woman who was sucked through an aircraft window also showed up a worrying lack of knowledge about basic safety procedures. An image shared online by Marty Martinez, a passenger on board flight 1380 from New York to Dallas, shows him and his fellow passengers wearing oxygen masks, which dropped down after one of the jet’s engines blew. Oxygen masks should be placed over the nose and mouth (Facebook/Marty Martinez ) However, as travel expert and former flight attendant Bobby Laurie pointed out on social media, none of the people in the picture are wearing their masks correctly.
He tweeted: “PEOPLE: Listen to your flight attendants! ALMOST EVERYONE in this photo from @SouthwestAir #SWA1380 today is wearing their mask WRONG. Put down the phone, stop with the selfies and LISTEN. **Cover your NOSE AND MOUTH.”    In the photo, the three passengers clearly shown only have the mask over their mouths, contrary to the advice given …

Nunes Says This Is Only The Tip of the Iceberg & Discloses His Next Target

Image
Devin Nunes set off a storm with the FISA memo, which now has the whole nation talking. Reactions have been split, with many saying this is a major break through and there should be prosecutions. While others, mainly from the left, are saying this is a bunch of nothing. Nunes has come under harsh attack from the left since the memo’s release, with some even going as far to say he is a Russian agent. Brett Baier was able to have a moment to ask Nunes about what he thinks about the aftermath of the release and what comes next. And what Nunes said will likely not cause the situation to simmer down. In fact, it appears that this is just the beginning. See The Video Below: NUNES REVEALS WHO HIS NEXT TARGET IS Devin Nunes appeared calm and collected in his interview, despite the new BOMB he dropped on the State Departmemt. Nunes said the recent memo release “completes the FISA-abuse portion” of the investigation and stated: “We are in the middle of (what he calls) Phase Two of the investigat…

Donald Trump 'to cancel Guantanamo Bay closure' and 'load it up with bad dudes'

Image
Donald Trump is set to reverse an order by former President Barack Obama to close Guantanamo Bay, it has been claimed. The notorious military prison holds suspected terrorists but has attracted fierce criticism from human rights groups. During his time in office, President Obama signed an executive order for Guantanamo to be closed "as soon as practicable". In practice, he wasn't able to end the facility entirely due to opposition from US Congress. But hundreds of prisoners were moved to the mainland and just 41 remain. During his presidential campaign, Donald Trump made clear his support for Guantanamo and said he wanted to "load it up with bad dudes". According to Politico, he now intends to come good on that promise and will start by signing an executive order reversing the Obama mandate. He is expected to make the announcement during the State of the Union address on Tuesday or perhaps before, the reports claim.
