‘Inside Edition’: Was Trump Muslim Questioner a Plant?
On Monday’s broadcast of the syndicated show “Inside Edition,” the question was asked who exactly was the questioner at last week’s rally in New Hampshire that asked GOP front-runner Donald Trump about the Muslim problem in the United States and said that President Barack Obama was a Muslim. The report suggested there was a possibility it may have been a plant intended to embarrass Trump. The man in question garbled his name, but said he was from White Plains. According to the report, the only White Plains in the United States is White Plains, NY, which is 250 miles From New Hampshire. “Inside Edition” asked audio expert Kent Gibson if he could make out the man’s name, but said the mic wasn’t there yet and he couldn’t make out the name of the man.

Levin: Media Should Receive ‘Backlash’ For Carson Coverage
Talk radio host Mark Levin criticized the media for its coverage of GOP presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson’s comments about a Muslim being president on Monday. Levin said Carson’s remarks have “nothing to do” with the Constitution, since Article VI deals with federal rules, not Carson’s personal preferences. He added that there should be “backlash” against the media for their liberal bias. He also argued that there is a difference between Sharia Law and the laws of Christianity and Judaism, which are personal, as opposed to seeking dominance of the state, and that while not all Muslims follow Sharia, someone should ask Democratic candidates whether they would support a candidate who agrees with Sharia Law. Levin further stated that someone’s faith shouldn’t matter if their faith is consistent with the Constitution, but that Carson should have asked Todd if he believes orthodox Sharia Law is consistent with the Constitution. He concluded that such discussions of meaningless hypotheticals prevent discussions of real issues (h/t The Right Scoop) Follow Breitbart.TV on Twitter @BreitbartVideo

Levin: Media Is Focusing on ‘Phony’ Trump Muslim Question Interview
Talk radio host Mark Levin criticized the media’s focus on a “phony” controversy over GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump’s handling of a questioner who said President Obama is a Muslim on Friday. Levin dismissed the issue as “phony,” and that Trump essentially dismissed the question, while denouncing the questioner as an “a-hole” and saying the question was idiotic. “backstabbing Republicans” wanted to make something out of a “fake issue.” He later added that no one cares what other candidates would do or think in such a situation, and criticized the media for making it a big issue. Levin also stated that Hillary Clinton started the birther movement and “pushed the Muslim stuff,” and that Hillary Clinton is worse than Trump for “planting the seed in the first place.” Levin concluded that people should “fight the media,” wondering why liberals thought it was a big deal if Obama is a Muslim, stating he doesn’t care about President Obama’s faith, and discussing President Obama’s relationship Rashid Khalidi and criticizing the media for not covering that.

Rubio: The President’s a Christian, But That Debate Is ‘Irrelevant’
Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio stated that while fellow GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump should have pushed back on a questioner who said President Obama is a Muslim, the president is a Christian, and his faith is irrelevant on Friday’s “Kelly File” on the Fox News Channel. Rubio said Trump should have pushed back on the questioner, as he has in the past. He continued, “I think that’s irrelevant, and second of all, it’s not true. And the president has made very clear what his faith is…Christianity, if someone says they’re a Christian, and that’s what they are, we accept that. That’s what it is. And I don’t know why that keeps coming up. The truth is, my problems with the president are not personal. My problems with the president are his policy decisions. They’re dangerous for America on national security, and they’re bad for our economy, and for the individual lives of our people.” Earlier, Rubio commented on Trump saying that he’ll have good advisers by stating that another candidate, Carly Fiorina showed, “if you take the time, you can learn a lot about these issues. But what’s important is that you need to be prepared to lead the very first

I feel like I failed my child,” she said. :They made it sound like she was going to be safe. I sent her to school and this is what happens. A teacher opened the door, let them in, and stood against the wall as they jumped her. Another teacher had to run in to try to break it up.” Follow Breitbart.tv on Twitter @BreitbartVideo
Glenn Beck: Tea Partiers Who Support Donald Trump Are Racist
On Tuesday, talk radio host Glenn Beck accused the Tea Party supporters of GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump of being racists. While he questioned whether Trump’s supporters are genuine Tea Partiers, Beck said of them, “If you were a Tea Party person, then you were lying. You were lying. It was about Barack Obama being black. It was about him being a Democrat.” Although he later identified fellow talk show host Sean Hannity as a Tea Party supporter who thinks Trump is “a great guy,” Beck said that he simply disagrees with Hannity about Trump. Beck’s comments came as part of a discussion of Trump’s rally in Texas yesterday before a sold-out crowd of 20,000. Beck stated, “The media’s making this look like [Trump’s supporters are] Tea Party people. I don’t think these are Tea Party people who are following him. Some of them may be, but I think these —
