Clinton campaign braces for more DNC leaks

The Clinton campaign is bracing for another WikiLeaks email dump. Jennifer Palmieri, the Clinton campaign's communications director told reporters she wouldn't be surprised if the rogue organization notorious for publishing hacked documents releases more emails from the trove it stole from the Democratic National Committee.
Sanders makes extra plea to California delegates to line up behind Clinton

Sanders makes extra plea to California delegates to line up behind Clinton

Bernie Sanders made an impromptu stop at the California delegation breakfast Tuesday to talk to the largest faction of "Bernie-or-bust" delegates and urge them to unify the Democratic Party. "Elections come and go. What we must do or forever look back in regret is defeat Donald trump and elect Hillary Clinton," Sanders told the delegates the morning after his address on the convention floor. "It's easy to boo but it is harder to look your kids in the face who will be living under Donald Trump presidency. Trump is the worst candidate for president in the modern history of this country."

'Bernie started a revolution, he can't stop it now': Sanders backers still refuse to quit

For diehard Bernie Sanders supporters at the Democratic National Convention, nothing he said in his Monday night speech will convince them to vote for Hillary Clinton, or to quiet down during her all-but-guaranteed nomination this week. "Under no circumstances will I ever vote for Hillary Clinton," Nebraska delegate Edgar DeLeon said as the Wells Fargo Center emptied out after Sanders spoke. "Jill Stein!" yelled another pro-Sanders delegate, referring to the Green Party candidate who some Sanders backers say they'll now vote for in November instead of Clinton.
Barone: Democrats come together Monday -- up to a point

Barone: Democrats come together Monday -- up to a point

Democratic delegates didn't dare boo or catcall at all during Michelle Obama's finely crafted speech in which she solidly backed Hillary Clinton. Her two main points: Clinton is the most qualified presidential candidate ever, maybe overqualified, and she has persevered through difficult, even humiliating personal setbacks.

Antle: Bill Clinton to address a party abandoning his legacy

Antle: Bill Clinton to address a party abandoning his legacy

When Bill Clinton takes the stage at the Democratic National Convention Tuesday night, he will be addressing a party vastly changed from when he last accepted the nomination. Back then, Clinton declared the era of big government was over. He said welfare should be a second chance, not a way of life. He proposed mending welfare and affirmative action, even he would end neither. He briefly entertained bipartisan entitlement reforms, although they ultimately went nowhere.

Black caucus split on Debbie 'what's-her-name' Schultz

Leading members of the Congressional Black Caucus offered very different reactions to Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz's decision to resign her post as chair of the Democratic National Committee. "I think she was treated unfairly," South Carolina Rep. Jim Clyburn, the third-ranking House Democrat, told the Charleston Post and Courier. "Absolutely. No question in my mind." Not every CBC member who endorsed Clinton was as warm toward Wasserman Schultz, however. "They made up this thing about what's-her-name Schultz, just to make it exciting," retiring Rep. Charlie Rangel, who co-founded the CBC and has represented Harlem since 1971, told the New York Times. "We don't need her now! ... So she resigned. So it's onward to victory. Is that bad?"

Trump faces lawsuit from 'USA Freedom Kids' manager

A man representing the group of young girls who performed at a Donald Trump rally in January is suing the candidate in a bid to force him to honor his commitment to let them perform again. Jeff Popick, director of the group "USA Freedom Kids," which performed at a Trump rally in Pensacola, Fla., is suing over the campaign's failure to pay the group as agreed and to let them have a repeat performance.
Obama may need to calm Dem divides at Clinton convention

Obama may need to calm Dem divides at Clinton convention

Democrats called for unity in their party Monday night, but after a day of protesting from Bernie Sanders supporters, it might be up to President Obama to actually deliver it when he speaks Wednesday night. Hillary Clinton was booed repeatedly on the convention floor by supporters of Sanders who felt burned by the Democratic National Convention. The spectacle destroyed her campaign's plan for a perfectly choreographed convention, and that's why Obama speech to conventioneers is suddenly more important.

Ohio Police hand Portman another union endorsement

Ohio Sen. Rob Portman won a second big endorsement from union members in as many days when the Fraternal Order of Police of Ohio announced their support of him over former Gov.

There were eight major speeches at the Democratic National Convention on Monday night, given by Cory Booker, Bob Casey, Al Franken, Kirsten Gillibrand, Michelle Obama, Bernie Sanders, Sarah Silverman and Elizabeth Warren. Among the eight speakers, almost 10,000 words were spoken. So what did they talk about? Mostly, Hillary Clinton. "Hillary" was said 66 times, compared to the 63 times "Trump" was said. Mike Pence was never mentioned, while Tim Kaine came up four times.

Indiana Republicans chose Lt. Gov. Eric Holcomb to replace Gov. Mike Pence as their candidate for governor in a vote by the state party's 22-member leadership committee on Tuesday. Holcomb became Indiana's lieutenant governor in March after years working as a Republican political operative in the Hoosier State.

SecDef Carter puts big names on Pentagon innovation board

Defense Secretary Ash Carter on Tuesday touted the progress his signature innovation hubs have made over the past couple months since their reboot, and announced that Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos and astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson were joining his Defense Innovation Advisory Board. The hubs have accelerated tech projects such as small drones that can operate in caves or tunnels and algorithms that can sift through millions of social media posts for terrorist propaganda.
