Israel's President Reuven Rivlin will visit India on a six-day tour starting November 15. Israeli President will be accompanied by a “delegation of unprecedented size comprising businessmen and university officials”, Indian newspaper The Hindu reports. President Rivlin will become the second sitting Israeli President to visit the South Asian country since the establishment of diplomatic ties between the two nations almost twenty-five years ago. President Rivlin and his Indian counterpart, President Pranab Mukherjee, will preside over the signing of a number of cooperation agreements ranging from agriculture to national security.

It's hard to rank Clinton scandals. Hillary's email scandal has been the focus for good reason -- it's been more accessible because the records at issue were public records even if hidden and destroyed by Hillary in good measure. The Washington Post reports tonight that the Huma-Weiner computer issue that led to FBI Director Comey's letter to Congress was discovered in early October. The sequence of events leading to Comey's letter was not as quick or haphazard as reported, but fairly methodical to the point that Comey felt word would leak out because prosecutors needed a search warrant:

The election is less than a week away. It's been an awful cycle. You deserve to have some feel-good story in your day. Like this one... Erling Kindem and Emmett Rychner are the best of pals. They're also 86 years apart.

"What, like with a cloth or something?" is how Hillary Clinton answered Fox News's Ed Henry's question about wiping her email server. People used BleachBit, a software that strips away files and makes it unable to recover any data. Now BleachBit is selling cloths with Hillary on it: https://twitter.com/bleachbit/status/791106417952305152

While school choice is under fire in some states, Delaware continues to expand its charter school and school choice programs. The ability to choose where children go to school, irrespective of zip code helps to raise the education bar and provides opportunities those in lower income locals would never receive otherwise. Delaware is an example of a choice-friendly state where one third of public school-attending children take advantage of choice opportunities. Once again, they're opening up applications for those wishing to participate in school choice or charter school initiatives.

Not only does the media collude with Hillary Clinton, but a Department of Justice official leaked information to the campaign about the investigation. Assistant Attorney General Peter Kadzik, who is also involved with the probe into emails found on Huma Abedin and Anthony Weiner's devices, warned John Podesta, Hillary's campaign chair, when the State would release the emails and on hearings: https://twitter.com/wikileaks/status/793831278382428164

Less than a week before Election Day and Project Veritas released yet another undercover video showing yet another high ranking Democrat behaving badly. Though I'd argue this one crosses into "sick" territory. At a fundraiser for Democratic U.S. Senate Candidate, Deborah Ross, fundraiser Benjamin Barber was captured on tape disparaging the African American community that refuses to vote Democrat. Not only did Barber say that blacks who "helped the other side are seriously f***ed in the head," he compared them Jews who aided Nazis.

Citizens have set an October gun sales record by having the FBI process over 2.3 million background checks, meaning 2016 could become the biggest year ever for guns. Every month has set a record for the past 18 months. The 2,333,539 checks through the National Instant Criminal Background Check (NICS) in October is 350,000 more than October 2015.

Given how much I plan to drink after Nov. 8th, in either celebration or despair, I have been toying with the idea of opening a winery. The idea has merit, given that it may be the only way I see any of my tax dollars back! The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Value Added Producer grants (VAPG) has awarded nearly $10 million to wineries, distilleries, and other makers of fine, alcoholic beverages millions!
The recently released list of the 2016 VAPG awards includes $7,417,459 for those producing, marketing, and packaging wine.
