    I’m paraphrasing but this is what Obama said to . “I’m sorry for your loss but f**k you.” In 8 years Obama DOJ only prosecuted 2 cops. The one who killed was not one of them. He is still on the force and got overtime pay for appearing in court.

    it's still kind of incredible how much liberals are committing to the "Black liberation is a Russian plot and always has been" line
    Fanning the flames of America’s racial tensions is as Russian as vodka and blini:

    "I think what happens is white people get to be everything. They get to be victims. They get to be heroes. And black people continue to be criminalized for our moments of courage." This video is less than 3 minutes long and absolutely worth watching:

    IMAGINE: A massive effort to impact the election using social media data mining, spending millions of dollars to get Trump elected. ...The British company that did it is Cambridge Analytica. Not Russians.

    I was quite disappointed when Jill Stein took to pushing the “Bernie Revolution” shtick. I get that he was on the lefter side of what anyone running as a Dem had on offer, but revolutionary he ain’t.

    I'm always skeptical about these reports of chemical weapons attacks in Syria. Does anyone have information about it.

    Here to tell everyone that Bernie Sanders doesn't believe the sh*t he's spewing about Russia. Bernie knows that Russia didn't cheat him or wanted him or Trump over Clinton. Bernie thinks he can get a chance to lead Democrats by playing ball. Sadly they'll cheat him again in 2020

    Some white people disagreed with my prediction that armed teachers would shoot black students... but over 100 pieces of hate mail later, I feel like they've proved my point for me. Here's some of the lowlights. (by )

    As you read this tweet, Turkey has surrounded, with its navy, a large part of the Republic of and is threatening to launch another military invasion of the island. Despite that, there is silence from the world. Idiocy over Turkey has cost lives - and thousands of them.

    Still sheepdogging. And for what. The dems won't let him get anywhere near the nomination. What a dope.
    As someone who campaigned hard for Hillary Clinton from one end of this country to another, it is an outrage that she had to run against not only Donald Trump but also the Russian government.

    So we're just going to forget Correct The Record Brock Trolls and the demonization of your supporters by Joy Reid, Neera Tanden, Peter Daou and Company? Senator, I and many others remember who trolled us and it wasn't Russians.

    Remember when you killed Abdulrahman al-Awlaki?
    Young people have helped lead all our great movements. How inspiring to see it again in so many smart, fearless students standing up for their right to be safe; marching and organizing to remake the world as it should be. We've been waiting for you. And we've got your backs.

    Once is liberated from Al-Qaeda, the world will see the same response from its inhabitants as the world saw once East Aleppo was liberated: jubilation. And, like with East Aleppo, East Ghouta will serve as another testimony about the facade that is the White Helmets.

    As I write, Turkish forces are massacring civilians in while Al-Qaeda is massacring civilians in Damascus from their positions in . Despite those atrocities, there is silence from US and UK politicians and journalists. Deplorable and unforgivable.

    Medium is a publish platform, not a news paper. They are censoring conservatives for their politics. This is wrong, and it’s merely a matter of time before they censor more people.

    No bigger conspiracy theorists than those who desperately believe that is true despite the lack of any solid evidence and take as an article of faith the word of terrorists that Assad has used CW.

    I knew Mother Jones had gone down hill. But now their liberals are calling for censorship. Shameful.
    This is good, but If is serious about cracking down on conspiracy theorists, it needs to go beyond the alt-right and reign in the garbage published on Syria by people like .
