It is not every day that Breitbart News highlights commentary from MSNBC's Chris Matthews, but the Hardball host said something on Thursday that Breitbart wanted to amplify. Matthews said that if he were President Trump, he would fire White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly.

It was a glib remark, made in the context of a discussion about reports that Kelly is trying to position himself as Trump's gatekeeper, blocking dubious news articles from reaching the president's desk. He's controlling the cage, Matthews said of Kelly. If Iwere Trump, I'd fire him just for saying that.

The implication is that Trump's ego should rebel against Kelly's attempt to control whatthe president sees. To be sure, reports on Kelly's effort, by Politico and the New York Times, are a bit insulting, suggesting that Kelly views Trump as highly impressionable and incapable of discerning fact from fiction on his own.

If Kelly's new system works, perhaps Trump's pride won't be wounded because he won't see Breitbart's article or Politico's or the Times's or this one. But considering the amount of time Trump spends glued toTwitter and cable news, it is extremely difficult to block information from reaching him.

Thus, as Kelly tries to filter out articles from the likes of Breitbart, Infowars, GotNews and the Gateway Pundit, those websites will likely try to erode his standing in their readers' and the president's eyes. And their message will probably get through to Trump, one way or another.

President Trump said his new chief of staff John Kelly will do a "tremendous job," after his swearing-in on July 31. "We have a tremendous group of support, the country is optimistic and I think the general will just add to it," Trump said. (The Washington Post)

Infowars's Paul Joseph Watson wrote on Friday that Kelly's restrictions will undoubtedly bolster complaints emanating from Trump's base that he has been isolated and surrounded by globalists who have no interest in furthering Trump's 'America first' message.

Mike Cernovich, another Infowars personality, told BuzzFeed that he is confident the presidentwill continue to see news from sources like Infowars because Donald Trump Jr., who does not work in the White House, will pass articles along to his father, unchecked by Kelly.GotNews founder Charles C. Johnson added his belief that first lady Melania Trump also will supply unfiltered news to the president.

An un-bylined GotNews post on Thursday struck a defiant note: We in the alternative media won the election for Trump. We will survive a failed general who was weak on borders. The people who share the truth with the president are those we are interested in helping. Those who seek to control him have not learned the key lesson of the 2016 election: Neither Trump nor the people will be controlled.

Much of the pro-Trump media's fury this week has been aimed at a different general, national security adviser H.R. McMaster, who prevailed on the president not to withdraw from Afghanistan. Chief economic adviser Gary Cohn, always a favorite target, drew new fire for publicly criticizing Trump's response to Charlottesville in an interview with the Financial Times.

But Kelly's turn is coming, if it hasn't already arrived.

Leaders are urging residents to stay with verified sources for the latest on Harvey and ignore rumors from other sources.

Adam Bennett , KHOU 8:13 PM. CDT August 24, 2017

With a hurricane churning in the Gulf, it is critical to stay with trusted sources for the latest information and to ignore internet rumors.

One false post, in particular, has city and county leaders urging residents to avoid spreading false information.

The post says they are projecting tens of thousands of homes in Houston will be underwater, among other things. We can verify this post is FALSE.

We can also verify that NO evacuation orders have been issued for Houston or other inland cities.

Get your news from legitimate news services, get your news from official sources, said Harris County Judge Ed Emmett. There are things on the internet and social media that are just false. We're trying to give you the best information, and we'll continue to do that."

False forecasts and irresponsible rumors on social media are interfering with efforts by the city of Houston, and its government and news media partners, to provide accurate information to the public about the expected effects Hurricane Harvey," Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner said. Please continue to monitor mainstream news sources for updates on the weather and act accordingly as an informed resident. Rumors are nothing new, but the widespread use of social media has needlessly frightened many people today.

Meteorologist Jeff Lindner with the Harris County Flood Control District also Verified that those rumors are false. He's asking people on social media to help them by NOT spreading it.

VERIFY: Alarming posts spreading on social media are FALSE - KHOU

It is fascinating to watch the Trump Phenomenon! The old guard, New World Order folks and those who have become successful the way things are expect things to remain the way they are. They expect to be in charge of what you love, hate, distrust and depend upon. They have been able to control your passion, interest and actions. We have all become influenced by what they call mean, intolerant, right and wrong. But no more will we follow losing belief systems.

Black Americans were never bothered by a Confederate flag, until we were told to be. No one, I mean NO ONE cared about a statue of a general in a park, until we were told to do so. How many of you needed a safe space before safe spaces were invented? We are playing follow the leader with folks who admit they cannot lead.

It has all changed and changed rapidly. They have not even caught on yet, but it is over. They will look back at pre-2016 as the good old days back when they were relevant. After decades of training our children in indoctrination centers (public schools), entertainment, social activism and political beliefs, how did it all go wrong so fast?

The media declared Hillary a historical figure, but her own party looked at her as hysterical. They brushed Trump away as the last candidate of the dying Republican Party, but he grew more and more powerful as they attacked him.

None of the old tricks worked; none of the old heroes they dragged out affected anyone. The old guard was stunned and are still stunned. The movie stars had no effect; the wise editorial writers were ignored; the trusted news commentaries were useless. The media expected to control the conversations with just a headline, but Trump completely controlled them with just a tweet. And the media followed him, begging him to stop. Something had changed, and they could not comprehend it or contain it.

They still do not understand and never will understand. They will not give up and will always fight us. But now they are showing their true colors. We can see clearly who they are, on both sides of the issues. They are everywhere, they are deceptive, and they wish to mislead us. But they can no longer hide themselves. We see them, and we now know who they are.

Let them quit Trumps advisory commissions. Let them speak out against him. Allow them to keep on attacking him. Even the most uniformed patriot can now see the scope of the work laid out before us.

Their rent a mob agitators are funny and fake. Their looting will not persuade us. We will handle their traveling bands of uninformed, masked clowns, and the lewd left will submit to us. I know they are dangerous and highly motivated, but I also know who we are. We are Americans and will soon grow tired of their antics.

We are now running primary opponents against the RINOs and have seen the Republican leadership spending money and endorsing RINOs in the primaries. This is against their own rules and spirit not to endorse during primary elections. But that seems to only count when they can choose the winners.

The media are full of liars who have an agenda ALL OF THE MEDIA. I think that is why Steve Bannon left the White House, to head up the patriots resistance to the mainstream press. Bannon is retuning to Brietbart to head up the real resistance. Brietbart will soon become one of the few primary sources for truth and information. Trump is now openly challenging the GOP leadership and campaigning against them in the primaries and within their districts.

Trump is going to pardon Sheriff Joe Arpaio and fire a shot across the bow of the America-hating opponents looking to punish us patriots. We have a president bent on not just shaking the tree of fools, but cutting it down.

Trump is going to shut the border with a wall, make arrests, deport, renegotiate NAFTA, bring business back, and back it up by building the baddest military the world has ever seen. Trump has placed the world on notice (with Syria and North Korea) that our military is no longer for show. We are no longer building your roads, schools and paying bribes. Terrorists are finally being terrorized.

The lewd, looney left can try all the tricks in their handbook but to no avail. We will win this battle because we are awake. We will not be shamed into submission. No name-calling will work, nor debates over racism or hatred. We know who you are, and we know who we are.

The media are in shock that they can no longer dictate our response to their lead. They may never recover from being uncovered. The Americans are back, and the whole world is better off because of it.

We Americans now see the fallacy of multiculturalism (separate but equal), and we recognize that the only racial division happens on the 6 oclock news.

What Trump did in Phoenix, Aug. 22, 2017, was close the noose around the illegitimate liberal doctrine in America. The Trump Phenomenon has completed encircled the freedom-hating powers in America. Now We The People will see a government fighting for us and not fighting for control over us.

White House chief of staff John Kelly is looking to bring change to the Trump administration.

According the multiple published reports Kelly is making sure he sees anything headed toward the presidents desk.

The common procedure is part of the White Houses efforts to regulate the administrations decisions and limit Trumps public and social media outbursts. He sent out two memos to staffon Mondaydetailing his plans, how we wants information to get to the president and how Mr. Trump will respond.

He has made one thing clear --he will not seek to directly control the behavior of the president.

The memos have brought some comfort to those in the West Wing according to the New York Times.

But despite Kellys effort, the White House still remains under fire.

The president has faced a lot of criticism for his comments on the rallies in Charlottesville, Virgina, blaming both sides for the violence.

He also attacked the media along with his critiques on TwitterThursdaystating, The Fake News is now complaining about my different types of back to back speeches. Well, there was Afghanistan (somber), the big Rally...(enthusiastic, dynamic and fun) and the American Legion - V.A. (respectful and strong). Too bad the Dems have no one who can change tones!

The White House had tried several times in the past to minimize Trumps social media rants.

Oswego County is making final preparations for aerial spraying to control the mosquito population in the county.

In a release Wednesday the county's health department said the state had declared an "Imminent Threat to Public Health" from mosquito-borne disease, which the health department says allows it to begin actions to control the mosquito population, including aerial spraying.

The declaration comes after the discovery of Eastern equine encephalitis (EEE) virus in samples of bird-biting mosquitoes collected in the area of Toad Harbor Swamp on the shore of Oneida Lake.

A date for aerial spraying hasn't been determined yet, but the health department says it will be shared with the public as soon as a date is determined.

Aerial spraying is a temporary, partial control measure to reduce mosquito populations and reduce the risk of human infection from the EEE virus, said Oswego County Public Health Director Jiancheng Huang. It is most effective when it is conducted in a concentrated area with large populations of EEE virus positive mosquitoes. Widespread random spraying is not effective in controlling EEE.

Residents within the spray zone will be notified of the aerial spraying. More information can be found on the county's website.

According to the health department, the following area will be subject to spraying:
