    Christopher Krebs was the head of the US Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.

On national television, diGenova called for Krebs' summary execution, saying Krebs 'should be drawn and quartered,' and 'take out at dawn and shot.'

  • How Trump Can Pull Off Another Win

    CNN columnist Chris Cillizza says that President Donald Trump is the underdog going into today's election. Cillizza says it is plausible that Trump gets to 270 electoral votes and a wins second term. First, Cillizza gave Trump the 125 Electoral votes solidly in his camp. The President would then have to win four states: Texas, Georgia, Ohio, Arizona. If he wins those he's up to 208 electoral votes. Then there is Florida, which gets him to 237. The President then needs to win Iowa and North Carolina. That gets him to 258. He would need 12 more to clinch. It all comes down to Pennsylvania. A win in Pennsylvania gives the President 278 electoral votes and makes him the clear winner.

According to CNN, Trump threatened to withhold federal aid or other assistance the next time Pennsylvania needs it because Gov. Wolf inconvenienced him. I'll remember it, Tom. I'm gonna remember it, Tom. 'Hello, Mr. President, this is Governor Wolf, I need help, I need help.' You know what? These people are bad. President Donald J. Trump Campaign Rally, Allentown, Pennsylvania Trump's words may have a chilling effect on other governors, who do not wish to have to factor in Trump's wrath in making decisions for their state. It also indicates Trump's mindset that the public purse is something he can wield as a personal weapon against those who displease him.
