Current runner-ups to "Biggest NRA-Cash Taker/Cycle 2016" distinction are Representative Martha McSally (AZ) receiving $5,500, followed by Senator Kelly Ayotte (NH), Senator Roy Blunt (MO), Senator Richard Burr (NC), Senator Chuck Grassley (IA), Senator Jerry Moran (KS), Senator Rob Portman (OH), Senator Richard Shelby (AL), Senator David Vitter (LA), Representative Charles Boustany Jr. (LA), Representative John Culbertson (TX), Representative Bob Goodlatte (VA), Representative Joe Heck (NV), Representative Will Hurd (TX), Representative Steve Scales (LA), and Representative Lamar Smith (TX) -- each having received $4,950 thus far.

There's a surprise, however, as to who has really hauled in the largest Cycle 2016 NRA donation to date: it's former Speaker/Weeper of the House, John Boehner who retired October 2015. Boehner collected NRA 2016 dough at a stunning $9,900.

CNN’s Corey Lewandowski Struggles To Defend Trump From Newest Financial Report Irregularities

In his first interview as a CNN contributor, former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski attempted to defend Donald Trump against allegations of wrongdoing after the Washington Post reported that the campaign paid over $700,000 to a company called Left Hand Enterprises LLC.

The Washington Post reported on June 23 that a company called Left Hand Enterprises LLC, which was to print and send direct mail advertisements, “received two big payments” totaling “$730,637 over five days.” The first payment was made to the company just three days after it was formed, raising questions about what the company actually did for the campaign.

In Scotland and everywhere else, Trump mixes politics and profits.

The journey is the latest example of the fuzzy, and sometimes invisible, line between Trump the presumptive GOP nominee and Trump the businessman — an arrangement that many ethics experts, including many fellow Republicans, view as inappropriate or worse.

They say Trump should take formal steps to separate himself from his business and financial holdings, both domestic and foreign, as he seeks to enter the White House, just as Mitt Romney and other candidates have done.

Texas mother, a vocal gun rights advocate, killed by police after fatally shooting her two daughters during 'family argument'.

The woman killed by police after she fatally shot her two daughters at their Texas home was identified as an outspoken gun advocate.

Christy Sheats, 42, shot and killed her two young daughters, Taylor, 22, and Madison Sheats, 17, on what neighbors said was their father’s birthday, according to local reports. A family spat started inside the married couple’s Houston-area home and spiraled into gun violence that spilled out onto their street.

“It was a family argument that turned into a shooting,” Fort Bend County Sheriff Troy Nehls told the Houston Chronicle. “But we’re still trying to put the pieces together.”

A witness said the sisters tried escaping with their father, but Taylor collapsed outside the home and Madison was shot in the back, KTRK-TV reported.

Sarah Palin gets trashed by a 10 year old.

The first question came from 10-year-old Adam Chernick, a Tarzana fifth-grader who had a press pass and a preternaturally adult manner. “You are a lot prettier than Tina Fey,” he told Palin.

Carville ushered the boy onstage to ask his question, I guess because he was just too cute. Who knew the most dangerous creature in the lion’s den would turn out to be Simba?

“You said you hate countries that don’t give women rights,” Adam began.

“I don’t think I ever said I hate countries,” Palin replied.

Adam pushed on: “Donald Trump said to Megyn Kelly, ‘You’ve got blood coming out of your wherever.’ How can you endorse someone who said something sexist like that?”

This, of course, brought the house down.

“If he were sexist,” Palin said, “I wouldn’t be endorsing him.”

I stopped Adam on his way out.

Was he happy with Palin’s response?

“No,” he said, “She didn’t even answer my question. I am not happy with Gov. Palin right now.”

Remember when Donald Trump said he forgave the loan he made to his presidential campaign? That hasn’t happened yet, NBC News reported on Thursday.
Apparently, the Federal Election Commission said it had no evidence the candidate followed through on his promise.

Trump was accused of destroying email evidence in lawsuit 10 years ago.

In 2006, when a judge ordered Donald Trump's casino operation to hand over several years' worth of emails, the answer surprised him: The Trump Organization routinely erased emails and had no records from 1996 to 2001.

The defendants in a case that Trump brought said this amounted to destruction of evidence, a charge never resolved.

At that time, a Trump IT director testified that until 2001, executives in Trump Tower relied on personal email accounts using dial-up Internet services, despite the fact that Trump had launched a high-speed Internet provider in 1998 and announced he would wire his whole building with it.

Now, a decade later, Trump regularly hammers Hillary Clinton, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, for using her own email server while she was secretary of State and deleting emails from that server that she deemed to be private.
