NIKE’S FAVORABILITY TANKS FOLLOWING COLIN KAEPERNICK CAMPAIGN. THE NUMBERS ARE ATROCIOUS
Nike’s favorability took a massive hit after it made Colin Kaepernickthe face of its new “Just Do It” campaign.
According to a study conducted by the Morning Consult and interviews with thousands of people, the popular apparel brand had a net favorability rating of +69 prior to the Kaepernick ad. It’s now sitting at +35. (RELATED: NIKE MAKES MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT COLIN KAEPERNICK. NFL FANS WON’T BE HAPPY)
The brand’s popularity also dropped eight points with black Americans. It went from +82 to +74. (RELATED: THE REASON FOR NIKE’S DEAL WITH COLIN KAEPERNICK HAS BEEN REVEALED. IT’S A WILD ONE)
Go ahead and raise your hand if you could see this coming. This was the most obvious outcome I think I’ve ever seen in the history of dumb business decisions. Here are some numbers from the study that should terrify Nike: Favorability for Republicans went from +75 to zero, and among white people, it went from +67 to +27.
I didn’t graduate from Harvard Business School, but I’m pretty sure those numbers are bad.
I really hope the geniuses running Nike know what they’re doing because, so far, this looks like an utter disaster. Here’s some truth for everybody out there. Kaepernick isn’t an elite quarterback, defensive coordinators figured out how to stop him, his play dropped off, the San Francisco 49ers benched him, he started kneeling, and now he isn’t in the NFL anymore.
He’s not a martyr or hero. He’s a guy that’s simply not good enough to...

Jobless Claims Unexpectedly Plunge to New Post-1969 Record
This is the lowest level for initial claims for state unemployment benefits since December 6, 1969 when it was 202,000.
The 4-week moving average, considered a better gauge of the labor market because it smooths out week-to-week volatility, fell to 209,500 from 212,250. This is the lowest level for this average since December 6, 1969 when it was 204,500.
Jobless claims have been closely watched in recent weeks for signs that trade disputes might weigh on the jobs market. To the surprise of many economists and critics of the Trump administration, jobless claims show no signs of stress from tariffs that U.S. has put in place or retaliation from...
Illegal Alien Charged With Killing Mollie Tibbetts Worked Under The Name 'John Budd'
The Mexican man charged with abducting and killing an Iowa college student was known for years on the dairy farm where he worked by another name: John Budd.
The alias has emerged as Cristhian Bahena Rivera’s employer, a dairy farm operation owned by a prominent Republican family, faces questions over whether its managers were aware of any warning signs that he may have been in the country illegally.
The name under which Rivera was hired and paid for the last four years was confirmed by three people with knowledge of his employment history, according to the Associated Press. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to release the information during an ongoing criminal investigation. One of the people said Rivera’s work identity as John Budd appears in official government records.
The Des Moines Register could not independently confirm the information reported Wednesday by the AP. Law enforcement officials, including ones with the Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation, and Bahena Rivera's lawyers, Chad and Jennifer Frese, would not say whether he used the name.
Bahena Rivera's employer, Yarrabee Farms, also declined to confirm or deny Rivera’s work identity. Lori Chesser, an immigration employment lawyer advising the farm, said that companies cannot discriminate against workers based on how they look or how their names sound.
Questioning whether Mexican illegal alien Cristhian Bahena Rivera's actual name was John Budd would have been "pretty racist," retired federal prosecutor Bob Teig told The Des Moines Register:
Employers typically do not face legal consequences for hiring a worker under false documents as long as they were not involved in obtaining them and had no other obvious reason to suspect they are fraudulent, said Bob Teig, a retired federal prosecutor in Iowa.
“Absent unusual circumstances, it would be difficult to show they knew any more than what they were told,” Teig said, adding that it would be “pretty racist” to assume a John Budd could not be Hispanic.
Whether anyone else knew Bahena Rivera as John Budd is unclear. The 24-year-old had a Facebook page under his real name, and his account listed many friends from the central Iowa area. He has a...
Hit piece on Trump in NYT is ‘total hoax’
Conservative filmmaker and author Dinesh D’Souza says the opinion piece in a New York newspaper allegedly authored by an anti-Trump “senior official” within the Trump administration is a total hoax.
American as well as international media have been speculating about the The New York Times op-ed, but conservative pundits believe it is fake news published to try and embarrass President Donald Trump.
“Just read the anonymous @nytimes article and it’s blindingly obvious it’s an in-house product written not by any Trump official but by a professional writer at the newspaper itself. This is the very definition of #FakeNews,” D’Souza tweeted on Wednesday.
President Trump on Twitter called the op-ed a “gutless editorial” from a newspaper which was forced to apologise to its readers because they had been delivering so much anti-Trump fake news during the presidential race.
“We have somebody in what I call the failing New York Times talking about he’s part of the resistance within the Trump administration,” Trump told a group of county sheriffs during a meeting.
“This is what we have to deal with. And you know, the dishonest media … it’s really a disgrace. I will say this: Nobody has done what this administration has done in terms of getting things passed, in terms of getting things through.”
Trump tweeted that the newspaper should hand over the anonymous official for national security reasons.
The official described a cabal of administration officials actively circumventing the president’s orders.
The op-ed strangely coincides with excerpts from Bob Woodward’s new book on the administration that have been leaked to the press.
White House press secretary Sarah Sanders released a statement saying Trump won with 306 Electoral College votes — versus 232 for his opponent. “None of them voted for a gutless, anonymous source to the failing New York Times.”
The press secretary ended her statement calling for the official to resign. “The individual behind this piece has chosen to deceive, rather than support, the duly elected President of the United States. He is not putting country first, but putting himself and his ego ahead of the will of the American people. This coward should do the right thing and resign.”
Fox Business host Lou Dobbs on Wednesday dismissed the anonymous White House official who authored the piece critical of Trump, calling him a “delusional, egomaniacal, self-aggrandizing jackass”. Dobbs said such a betrayal was...
