    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.

    Russian bots? No. Steve Bannon and Cambridge Analytica used Facebook to manipulate 50 million voters and helped Trump win.

    Cambridge Analytica got a major contract last year from the US State Dept to combat Russian propaganda on Facebook for the $120M ‘Global Engagement Center’
    So Cambridge Analytica harvested 50m US Facebook accounts without authorization and manipulated them for electoral purposes.

    Why is the bombings of Black people in Austin, TX not a bigger story? I guess for the state-corporate ruling class Black lives really don't matter when it comes to protecting the image of the U.S.

    True. But you don’t have to be a scientist to know this.
    White men stockpile guns because they’re scared of black people and feel inadequate, science says via rawstory

    Last night, BBC photoshopped a photograph of Jeremy Corbyn onto a red background, adjacent to the Kremlin, Moscow, and altered his hat to match communist style headwear. They ran that as their background to BBC Newsnight discussion on the Salisbury Attack.

    Jeremy Corbyn suggested we establish facts rather than escalate tension. How did the BBC respond? By photoshopping a Russian hat onto his head and putting him in front of the Kremlin.

    Did BBC photoshop hat to make it look more Russian? Not enough that Moscow is the back drop photo. This is war propaganda.

    What if I told you that Putin rose to power after Clinton meddled in the affairs of Yeltsin & Yeltsin rose to power after Bush meddled in the affairs of Gorbachev. If we're going to claim high road of respecting Democracy, maybe we should exit the low road of intrusive tyranny.

    UK police announce they have found Vladimir Putin's wallet at the scene of the spy poisoning crime. He must've dropped it. Plus Assad's wallet and the wallets of the entire Iranian Supreme Council.

    They always forget the illegal coup in Kiev don't they? It was that that caused the civil war in Ukraine and it was backed by the US and UK with money and support. Thats why CRIMEANS left Ukraine.

    That anyone in the UK government, after having received the Saudis, mentions human rights with regards to Russia is farcical.

    Corbyn disappoints. Barely better than May. Demonizes Russia. Evil oligarchs etc. One small mention of Saudi genocide in Yemen. The PM, the queen, the press rolled out a red carpet for Saudi killer prince.

    He was also looking forward to gentrifying the Southside neighborhood where his narcissistic “presidential compound” will be. Mr. 44’s already bullshitting and making excuses for why he will be summarily uprooting and displacing low income, Black families from their homes.

    The evidence that Russia carried out the poisonings has not been shown to the Russian government, nor to us, the British public. Until it is we have every right to be sceptical, bearing in mind the lies we were told by our government about Iraqi WMDs 15 years ago
