Michael Flynn Got The Kremlin In His Back Pocket!

National Security Adviser may have been compromised.

Retired general and noted Islamophobe Michael Flynn is the current National Security Adviser.

Flynn had made numerous appearances on Fox News and got lap dances from the likes of Sean "Softball" Hannity. It's noted that Flynn was a contracted agitator on the network before he became a top advisor to the fuhrer. He is strongly in favor of the controversial Muslim ban that his fuhrer ordered.

Democrats have called for Flynn to be fired out the cannon after reports of him discussing sanctions and cooperation with Russia's Ambassador to the United States before the fuhrer took office.

Top officials including the vice fuhrer said last month that Flynn and Sergey Kislyak talked simply to arrange a phone call between the Russian Federation president Vladimir Putin and Fuhrer Donald J. Trump.

Flynn was calling then president Barack Obama an "enemy of the state." He said that the sanctions that were imposed on the country after the accusations of the country meddling in the election.

Flynn was trying to calm down the tension between the U.S. and Russia as a private citizen. It was a clear violation of the Logan Act.

Now I'm wondering if the conservative agitators who longed demonized Obama will address this scandal in the making?

Nope. They're too busy trying to blame Obama for Trump's fuck ups!

Stand Off At The Vaughn Iron College!

Stand off at a Delaware iron college. 

The interns got the best of the inept guards and medical officials at Vaughn in Smyrna, Delaware.

Now the fuhrer, governor John C. Carney, Jr., and the FBI are notified of the situation.

 The took four workers hostage. They demand that Vaughn workers treat the interns with respect. They believe that the fuhrer's treatment of Americans in the iron college. They want education and rehabilitation for all interns. They want their books to be monitored and not abused by guards.

The hostage situation drew dozens of officers and law enforcement vehicles to the facility.

One of the hostages was released tonight and another one was released a few hours later.

We will get back with you on the latest going on with Vaughn.

Mitch McConnell: Democrats Better Give Trump His SCOTUS Pick Or Else!

Bitch McConnell now wants to Democrats to get along and support the fuhrer.

The fuhrer Donald J. Trump nominated Neil Gorsuch for the Supreme Court. Expect this to be a partisan fight. The conservatives are hoping for Trump to keep his word by nominating these type of justices to the Court.

Democrats who are seething from their loss are vowing to delay nominations and not hold hearings on candidates. They will take the route that Republicans done.

Progressives warn Democrats that they better get a spine or continue to lose elections.

When Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) and later Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) spoke in 2016 about the confirmation of a nominee, they said that they will wait until the results of the election when a new president is charge. They gambled their chances and it paid off.

A Republican president, a Republican congress, no problems rights! Uh, not so.

Democrats still can delay the nomination and oppose it. It takes up to 60 Senators to confirm the nominee. If the nominee fails to get a vote, McConnell could impose the "nuclear option".

The option could reduce the nomination confirmation to 51.

Barack Obama nominated Merrick Garland for the position and it ended with no confirmation nor a hearing. Republicans took the legal steps to deny Obama his third justice to the Supreme Court.

I am still amazed that McConnell has the audacity to get on this soapbox to warn Democrats to not clog up Washington. This asshole spent eight years doing so.

Antonin Scalia's death was partisan from the start. Republicans quickly went to social media and the junk food media to warn Obama not to pick a nominee. Obama was constitutionally in the right to pick a nominee. So when he did, the Republicans bemoaned about our country's courts are going to be fundamentally changed forever and it's the end of the world.

Now that Trump is entitled to getting a nomination, he will now face the wrath as well.

Trump is likely to get a nominee confirmed to the court.

The real test for the partisans is how far and how long could this go. Obama is still angered by Republicans and their unrepentant obstruction. Democrats are hoping to capitalize off the anger that Trump's two weeks in office brought upon the nation.



Trump Slides A Dick Into The Court!

The fuhrer nominates Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court.

Neil Gorsuch is currently a federal appeals judge from U.S. 10th Circuit of Appeals in Denver. He is chosen to be the fuhrer's pick for the Supreme Court. This pick will replace the late Antonin Scalia who passed away a year ago.

Donald J. Trump nominated this judge for the court. Republicans are on board with this pick.

Democrats aren't. So it's likely a showdown for the spot. Democrats are seething over the Republican obstruction to Barack Obama's pick Merrick Garland. The Republicans held off the confirmation hearings and vote. It ended with Garland heading back to the federal court for the District of Columbia. Democrats vow complete obstruction to this guy.

Now the very same Republicans are warning Democrats to get in line or prepare for "nuclear option."

Conservatives are going to praise this guy. Progressives not so much. They're going to hate this guy and the very things he stands for.

The announcement came forth with the spotlights of a reality television show.

Gorsuch would be considered one of
the youngest judges appointed to the highest court. He is currently 49 years old and is married with children.

Mr. Comey, You Got Some Explaining To Do!

James Comey refused to pursue allegations of Russian meddling in election.

The government agency overseeing the U.S. Justice Department is looking into the actions of James Comey, the FBI director. The Inspector General is concerned that Comey's last minute decision to look into perennial failure Hillary Clinton's emails doomed her in the final weeks of the presidential election.

The decision to reopen the case became the talk of the nation and also led to fuhrer Donald J. Trump winning the election.

Of course, he refused to go after Trump's connections to Russia. He basically blew all that off for some goddamn emails.

Michael Horowitz will not look into the decision not to prosecute Clinton and her aides. Instead he will review the actions of Comey took that Clinton and many of her supporters believe cost her the election.

The news presser in July which he called the actions of Clinton, "extremely careless". The latter to Congressional Republicans in October. Then the decision to close the investigation in November.

Democrats are seething with anger over this. Comey was also briefed on the Russian hacks and chose not to pursue the allegations of them meddling in the election.

Trump during his campaign wanted Comey fired out the cannon for not pursuing charges against Clinton. Trump said that the system was "rigged" and the FBI was politicized by him. He said if he won, he would continue dogging Clinton. So far, that's not going to happen. Even the Benghazi Committee finally closed.

Now that he will be the fuhrer, he might keep Comey on to do political witch hunts against the Democrats, Rosie O'Donnell, Meryl Streep, Megyn Kelly, CNN, the women who accused him of inappropriate behavior, his ex-wives, and his likely mistresses.

Clinton and former president Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter without Roselyn and the Obamas will be there to see their mortal enemy sworn in.

Vice fuhrer Mike Pence will be sworn in by Clarence Thomas, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court. Trump will be sworn by Chief Justice John Roberts.

Cory Booker: Jeff Sessions Ain't AG Material!

Sen. Cory Booker and many others oppose Jeff Session as the Attorney General.

Today is the confirmation hearings of the Attorney General. A controversial senator from the state of Alabama is the pick for the position. But his neo-Confederate ties, his past statements and his reaction towards the current issues in a post-Obama America are under fire.

Democrats are determined to fight against Republicans. They may lose this fight after the 113th Session pulled the "nuclear option" when it came to confirmation hearings. The 115th Session will quickly confirm nominees in this Republican controlled senate. They will now have the power to play moves they've longed complained the Democrats done during the eight years of Barack Obama's term.

New Jersey Democratic senator Cory Booker will testify against Alabama Republican senator Jeff Sessions in an attempt to block his nomination as the Attorney General of the United States.

Republicans faced criticism after they said they'll swiftly confirm fuhrer Donald J. Trump's picks for his cabinet and the federal courts.

At the Judiciary Committee, Booker will say that Session's record on civil rights and immigration will not live up to the principles of his predecessors.

The NAACP, the ACLU, many LGBT groups and immigration rights groups are opposing the nomination.

"I'm breaking a pretty long Senate tradition," said Booker when he was on All In with Chris Hayes.

"We've seen Jeff Sessions that's Senator Jeff Sessions --- consistently voting against or speaking out against key ideals of the Voting Rights Act, taking measures to try to block criminal justice reform."

Session was called "a threat to desegregation and the Voting Rights Act" by the NAACP.
The fuhrer and the squinty eyed bigot who he wants as the Attorney General.
So far Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) and Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) are strongly opposed to the nomination and will vote against him. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) signaled the same.

Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) and Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) are cautious about Sessions as well. Scott as the only Black senator who votes as a rank-and-file Republican had said that Sessions will get his vote after a "special emphasis". He is going to remind Sessions that his vote will be cast on the answers that are relevant to the current environment.

Given the time of racial and societal unrest, Scott did voice a bit of concern about the nominees.

Republicans demonized Eric Holder and his successor Loretta Lynch. Holder and Lynch are African American and they were attacked on their credentials and race by many agitators. Sessions was one of those agitators.

Fuhrer Trump, vice fuhrer Mike Pence and the beady eyed squinty bigot Jeff Sessions are a match made in Hell.

Yearly Wrap Up!

On to the next one.

And like that we're gone....!

Here's our unscientific poll for the last of the year.


What will you most remember about 2016?

Donald J. Trump becoming the 45th President of the United States.
The shocking deaths of many known legends in politics, sports, education and entertainment.
The tragic shootings of unarmed people of color.
The mass shootings that happened this year and Congress not acting on measures to curb gun violence.
The junk food media giving White extremism (far right politics/conservatism) the title "alt-right".
Fake news websites becoming mainstream.
The meltdowns of Kanye West, Kim Kardashian, George Zimmerman, Tomi Lahren, Ronda Rousy, Bill Cosby, Hillary Clinton, Jeb Bush and Ted Cruz.
Calling out systematic racism. People Magazine, The Academy Awards, Facebook, The Bachelor and public officials who advocated racism and people called them out for it.
Other
Please Specify:

Damn, who would've thought Donald J. Trump would become the 45th President of the United States. A billionaire with no political experience or the temperament to lead the world's only superpower makes me shake my head with disgust. His win was apart of the flagrant racism, sexism, Islamophobia, xenophobia and utter ignorance of the American people. 

White conservatives came out for the former reality television star and business mogul. President Trump and Vice President Mike Pence will have the opportunities to prove to their supporters they can actually "Make America Great Again." 

And Democrats will now have to prove to their disgruntled supporters that they have fight in them.

With the defeat of Hillary Clinton, the progressive and moderate/conservative wing of the Democratic Party are at odds with each other. They are trying to find a viable path to winning in the 2018 Midterm and 2020 General. With four years on the line, Democrats have no real viable candidate to take on Trump when he wants to run for reelection. 

Hillary Clinton will be the first woman in American history to be a nominee for a major party. Her loss was a slap to the face to the establishment, women and history. Thanks to the onslaught of misinformation, resentment, and a lackluster appeal to the hardcore left, she lost the electoral college but ended up winning the popular vote. Clinton blames the FBI memo, the conservative agitators, Bernie Sanders, and Russia for the loss.

Trump's win also gave Republicans a HUGE majority. The Democrats go down in flames after this election. Republicans have the White House, Congress and many state legislatures.

And they have the wind in their sails. Trump can sign off the repeal of Obamacare, swing the court back when he gets his nominees for the Supreme Court confirmed. Trump's inept behavior spells trouble for those who believe in progress. The Republicans have insulted and dog whistle through the eight years of President Barack Obama's term. We are reminded that White supremacy is still relevant. 

It's unfortunate that we live in the society where Jada Pinkett Smith, Jesse Williams and Colin Kaepernick are attacked for being engaged. From #OscarsSoWhite to taking a knee to police brutality, Black entertainers and athletes have expressed frustration with the justice system. 

When cops get away with murder, it makes the irrational target them. So many in law enforcement were lost in the wake of gun violence. And the police are overworked as well. They have to defend their honor from the corruption within their departments. They allowed Michael Slager, Ray Tensing and many other cops walk. Even with video evidence, it's nearly impossible to indict an officer.

Mass shootings continue to plague the United States. The most deadliest shooting in history was the Pulse Nightclub shooting. Omar Mateen, a former security guard went into a gay bar and massacred many people before the law him. The law involuntarily massacred the innocent in their attempt to stop Mateen. Then of course, the mass shootings in Washington state mall where Arcan Cetin massacred four people before the law caught him without a bullet being fired.

The shootings of law enforcement in Dallas and Baton Rouge brought attention to police officers being targeted in the wake of other officers murdering people of color.

Things must change. We must change things for the better and hope for a better future of all humans beings.

We lost so many this year. The biggest shocks were the deaths of Prince, David Bowie, Muhammad Ali, Natalie Cole, Glenn Frey, Maurice White, Denise "Vanity" Matthews, Gwen Ifill, Frank Sinatra, Jr., George Michael, Patty Duke, Joanie "Chyna" Laurer, Florence Henderson, Bankroll Fresh, Shawty Lo, Phife Dawg, John Glenn, Nancy Reagan, Antonin Scalia, Doug Banks, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Harper Lee, Rob Ford, Doug Banks, Afeni Shakur, Billy Paul, Kimbo Slice, Gordie Howe, Ricky Harris, Christina Grimmie, Miss Cleo, Janet Waldo, Elie Wiesel, Fidel Castro, Gene Wilder, Lou Pearlman, Jerry Heller, Thomas Mikal Ford, Arnold Palmer, Ron Glass, Henry Judah Heimlich, Janet Reno, Sharon Jones, and many others this year.

Not to mention the man who created the red Solo cup, Robert Leo Hulseman passed away this year.

I didn't have time to name everyone else who died this year but I want them to know that they all will be missed.

See you when I get there.

You know I wanted to keep this short and simple because you have to proof-read and reedit this stuff constantly. Hell I know I am not perfect. I don't have to prove to anyone that I'm not.

But in the next year, we'll be vigorous and motivated. I will address an issue that's personal in the coming weeks and give a rundown of the latest issues in my community, the government and the junk food media.

Again, thanks to S. Baldwin for allowing me an opportunity to help grow the blog and the many contributors who help as well.

Let's be motivated.

Let's be strong.

Let's be at least better a human......!

Farewell 2016! I'm ready for the new year and I'm motivated!

John Glenn Passed Away!

Famed astronaut and former U.S. Senator John Glenn passed away.

Sad news to report. The legendary astronaut and former Democratic senator from Ohio, John Glenn passed away. Around that time, he was hospitalized at the Ohio State University James Cancer Center. A specific cause of death wasn't revealed but at the time of his death, the family confirmed he was in dire straits.

Buzz Aldrin is suffering from declining health issues as well. He was in Antarctica when he was getting ill and had to return back to the United States. He was told of the news while in the hospital.

President Barack Obama and President-elect Donald Trump were notified of the passing.

Obama said that "with John's passing, our nation has lost an icon."

"When John Glenn blasted off from Cape Canaveral atop an Atlas rocket in 1962, he lifted the hopes of a nation," Obama said in a statement. "And when his Friendship 7 spacecraft splashed down a few hours later, the first American to orbit the Earth reminded us that with courage and a spirit of discovery there’s no limit to the heights we can reach together."

Trump said in a tweet that the nation had lost "a great pioneer of air and space in John Glenn. He was a hero and inspired generations of future explorers."

Ohio governor John Kasich, Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) and Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH) were notified as well.

Glenn was the last survivor of the Mercury 7. He was selected in 1959 as NASA's first groups of astronauts. He became the first American to orbit the Earth on February 20th, 1962.

He was born on July 18, 1921 in Cambridge, Ohio to Clara and John H. Glenn, Sr. The family moved to New Concord when he was young. His father was involved in the business of plumbing. He didn't want to get into the business, he wanted to be an engineer.

He went to Muskingum College to study there. He dropped out to join the Navy. He was influenced to join after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. In World War II, John flew 59 combat missions in the South Pacific as Marine aviator. He flew a further 90 combat missions during the Korean War. He survived skirts with enemy fire and lived to tell about it.

Around that time, he met his love Annie and she always had his back. They would have two children and live in Columbus, Ohio.

Glenn was elected to the U.S. Senate in 1974. Served from 1975 until 1999. He lost his first bid for the Senate from Ohio in 1970, after abandoning a race in 1964 because of a head injury suffered in a fall.

Glenn was briefly considered as a running mate for Democratic presidential candidate Jimmy Carter in 1980. But a ponderous address at the Democratic National Convention – people walked out – caused Carter to remark that Glenn was "the most boring man I ever met."

Glenn sought the Democratic presidential nomination himself in 1984 but was quickly eliminated by eventual nominee Walter Mondale, Carter's vice president. His failure was all the more stinging because he had been touted as an early front-runner.

In the Senate, Glenn was respected as a thoughtful moderate with expertise in defense and foreign policy. But his career's luster was dulled by a Senate investigation of the "Keating Five" – five senators suspected of doing favors for campaign contributor Charles Keating Jr. The panel eventually found Glenn did nothing improper or illegal.

He took a leading role in seeking to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons, especially to Pakistan. He was the author of a law that forced the United States to impose sanctions on India and Pakistan in 1998 after both countries conducted nuclear tests.

He also was a staunch advocate of a strong military and took a keen interest in strategic issues. He retired from the Senate in 1999.

Thirty-six years after his maiden space voyage, Glenn became America's first geriatric astronaut on Oct. 29, 1998. He was 77 years old when he blasted off as a mission specialist aboard the shuttle Discovery. He saw it as a blow to stereotyping of the elderly.

"Maybe prior to this flight, we were looked at as old geezers who ought to get out of the way," Glenn said after his nine-day shuttle mission. "Just because you’re up in years some doesn't mean you don't have hopes and dreams and aspirations just as much as younger people do."

Recently the city of Columbus renamed its airport John Glenn Metro Columbus International Airport.

The former was Port Columbus.

The skies are the limit for a legend. He will be sorely missed. Godspeed John Glenn.

Canada Fears Trump Could Ruin Alliance!

My vacation in Niagara Falls. I took a picture of the International Boundary Line at the Rainbow Bridge. Its one of the many border crossings that the United States and Canada share. 

Our future dictator has one of his properties in Toronto.

Our neighbor to the north is concerned about the nationalist stance of your incoming dictator. His surprise win has concerns globally. He is not prepared for the job. The controversial billionaire/racist/sexist/pussy grabbing/reality television star who will become the 1st Dictator of the United States will take office in January along with his running mate the Christian extremist who is the outgoing Indiana governor. They promised that they will make America Great Again.

On his journey he may takedown many allies in his quest.

Canada our most reliable ally in the world is hoping that the incoming leader will not ruin a century's worth of trade and friendship.

If you didn't know this lovely fact, let me inform you about it. The U.S.-Canadian border is one of the longest boundary in the world. It's an invisible line that cuts through two countries and the U.S. Border Patrol and Canadian Border Service Agency monitor it 24/7, everyday. The International Boundary Commission is the agency that deals with maintaining the border. The IBC must cut through forests and mountains to maintain a clear path dividing the countries.

It spreads from Alaska in the extreme northwest with the Yukon and British Columbia. Then it starts from Washington state to Maine. It passes through the Canadian provinces of British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, and New Brunswick.

It pass through the U.S. States of  Alaska, Washington, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Minnesota, Michigan (water), Ohio (water), Pennsylvania (water), New York, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine.

It passes through forests, mountains, valleys, and water. However the border is complex. Some of the United States extends into Canadian mainland and vise versa. It's noted that some of the border does pass through buildings such as homes, businesses, and a library.

In the tiny town of Derby Line, Vermont, there is a handful residents who are literally neighbors to the people of the city of Stanstead, Quebec. The town was cut in half and the residents must apply for passports to see their neighbors. So if you live in Derby Line to get a fresh pizza from Stanstead, you better have a passport. If you from Stanstead and want to travel to the nearest Walmart 30 miles down the Interstate 91, better get a passport.

It's even rough for the residents of the tiny village of Estcourt Station, Maine. The town sits at the northernmost point of the United States. You have to drive through Canada to enter the tiny hamlet.

Only five people live there and they have the worst luck of border residents. Their homes are directly on the border. Those who live in the United States must travel through Canada to get back to the town of Fort Kent, Maine. Those who want to get gas from the Gulf station in Estcourt Station and live in the city of Pohenegamook, Quebec have to drive nearly a mile to border patrol before going to the gas station to fill up. That's if they're open. If the U.S. Custom and Border Patrol station isn't open, you're out of luck. Because if you have a home in the Canada but have to get through your driveway in United States, you're pretty much trapped in your home.

If you live in New York, you have the St. Regis Mohawk Reservation. It is a Native American claim that cuts into both countries. Many residents can freely travel through the countries without being stopped. Although both government monitor the area, the area is independent governance.

If you live at the Northwest Angle in Minnesota, you have to travel through Manitoba to get to the area. You must contact the border patrol once you enter the Angle. If you fail to do so, within 30 minutes the border agents and the U.S. Coast Guard will appear and round you up.

If you live in Point Roberts, Washington, you have a rough way to the mainland. The city is part of the United States and it sits on the peninsula of British Columbia. You have only an elementary school in Point Roberts. Many residents who have children who are passed 5th grade have to go to either Canadian schools for education or take the hour ride from Surrey, British Columbia to Blaine, Washington for middle and high school education.

With the Republican Party fixated on building walls and having countries pay for it, I wonder if the Republicans are willing to pay the residents of the United State sand Canada to clear the way for that wall to the north.

The soon-to-be dictator wants to end trade agreements with countries that don't help America first.

But in the same breathe he wants the Keystone XL pipeline and Dakota Access Pipeline to carry forth. Those pipelines will cut through the United States from Canada.

The issues with legalization of marijuana is also divisive. Canada is going to legalize the weed nationwide. In the United States, a handful of states are legalizing the weed. The rest considers it a felony if you possess the weed.

Nonetheless, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will meet with the guy in the coming month as a jester of goodwill. The two will have some tension on issues. His stance on refugees, the poor and the American-Canadian trade agreements are issues that the dictator may have to focus on.

Border security is truly a Republican issue. They want to ban Muslims from coming into the country.

They want to ship immigrants back to their nations (including Canada).

Did you know it's easier to get into Canada than it is the United States. The U.S. takes everything seriously and assured that you'll be banned from entry if you commit a felony in the country of your origin. Matter of fact, if you're an American cause an criminal incident in Canada, you could be banned from entry in the United States. You might have to face Canadian courts or detainment for an indefinite period.

Fidel Castro Passed Away!

The world is mourning the loss of Cuba's former leader Fidel Castro.

Fidel Castro, the legendary leader in the Caribbean nation of Cuba has passed away at the age of 90. World leaders have sent their condolences to the former Cuban president. Born Fidel Alejandro Castro Ruz, he led Cuba throughout the Cold War. He was icon in Cuba as well as her in the United States.

Here in the United States, I can only imagine how conservatives are screaming for joy knowing an "enemy" of the country is gone.

Castro was the leader of the 1959 Cuban Revolution. He lead a coalition of Cubans to overthrow U.S.-backed dictator Fulgencio Batista. Castro ruled the island nation for nearly 50 years. His supporters say that he was for the people. His detractors said that he was a dictator and cruel despot who suppressed opposition.

He would test the United States by thumbing his finger in the eye of 10 presidents.

In 2006, Castro would face ill health and couldn't lead the nation. He would pass his legacy to his younger brother Raul. Raul Castro announced the news on state television tonight.

Castro spent his final years in seclusion and made some appearances with foreign dignitaries. He would also take to a blog to talk about the world events. The junk food media over here broke into local programming to express their know nothing opinions.

He was born in Cuba. He was upset over the Batista government and how it was cruelly treating the people of Cuba. Castro was aided by guerrilla war strategist Che Guevara. They fought the Cuban leader and defeated him. Castro would become the prime minister of Cuba.

He would criticize the United States after the CIA-lead Bay of Pigs Invasion. He would ban all Americans propeties from the island. That in turn led to the embargo of Cuba. This is still in effect. President Barack Obama eased tensions with Cuba by lifting sanctions against the island.

Castro would spark the Cold War when he said that the United Socialist Soviet Republic (USSR/Soviet Union/Russia) and their nuclear weapons are welcomed in Cuba.

Castro would be sworn in as president of Cuba in 1976.

Castro played a role in the Elian Gonzalez affair. The Cuban government demanded the U.S. to return the boy to his father. The U.S. rightfully so by force. It was the iconic picture of a frightened boy with U.S. Marshals armed pulling him from a closet. The U.S. and Cuba would negotiate a refugee agreement after that.

Throughout the Cold War, Castro was considered a threat to the U.S.

Expect President Barack Obama and his successor, that controversial billionaire/racist/sexist/pussy grabbing/dictator in waiting Donald J. Trump to respond to the news.

Cubans exiles are cheering the death.

The nation of Cuba uses economic Communism. Castro believed that the government should give the land back to the people and to defend the rights of the poor. Some didn't agree to Communism and opposed him. But all threats were quickly stopped. Some middle class Cubans would flee to Florida to settle after Castro threatened imprisonment and death to people who tried to overthrow him.

No Charge!

Clinton is feeling like a winner. Conservatives are outraged.

Can we finally put to rest those goddamn emails?

Confirmed. The FBI stands firm in not indicting Hillary Clinton on the emails being held on a private server.

Two weeks since the bombshell, Donald Trump and his allies have push the notion that Clinton would be indicted for criminal acts. It turns out that Clinton followed the rules and is once again cleared of any criminal acts.

FBI director James Comey who is facing backlash for dropping a bombshell close to the election.

The FBI has cleared Clinton in the ongoing issue facing Huma Abedin's estranged husband Anthony Weiner. The disgraced congressman is accused of sending inappropriate sexting pictures to a minor.

He sought sexual treatment and is cooperating with the FBI.

Clinton's lead shrunk because of this FBI memo to Congress. Clinton blames Republicans and their obsession with issues that aren't important in this election.

Clinton's odds of winning the U.S. presidential election remain at 60% at present time.

Trump. Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) and RNC chief Reince Priebus condemn the decision and still believe that Clinton committed criminal acts.

Golden Harvest!

On his way out, he will leave unemployment rate at the lowest.

President Barack Obama's final two months are here. The first African American president leaves the White House on January 20th, 2017. On his way out, he may leave his predecessor with the lowest unemployment rate in American history.

The job numbers for October are out. It nets 161,000 jobs, 73-months of job growth. It's amazing.

Nonfarm payrolls increased by 161,000 jobs last month, the Labor Department said on Friday. August and September data was revised to show 44,000 more jobs created than previously reported.

The unemployment rate fell one-tenth of a percentage point to 4.9 percent, in part as people dropped out the labor force.

The closely watched employment report was published four days before the Nov. 8 presidential election. It came on the heels of data last week showing an acceleration in economic growth in the third quarter. But economists see little impact from the report on an increasingly bitter and divisive campaign.

“There is so much noise out there right now, everyone is screaming from the rooftops. I just don’t know that any particular data point is going to have a great bearing on the election, in and of itself,” said Sam Bullard, senior economist at Wells Fargo Securities in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Though the U.S. central bank is expected to increase borrowing costs next month, that decision will likely depend on the outcome of Tuesday’s election. The tight race between Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton and her Republican rival Donald Trump has rattled financial markets.

Economists polled by Reuters had forecast payrolls increasing by 175,000 jobs last month and the unemployment rate falling one-tenth of a percentage point to 4.9 percent.

The Fed on Wednesday left interest rates unchanged but said its monetary policy-setting committee “judges that the case for an increase in the federal funds rate has continued to strengthen.” It lifted its benchmark overnight interest rate last December for the first time in nearly a decade.

“The election could still derail the Fed’s plans, particularly if a very close result led to one or both candidates contesting it via the courts,” said Paul Ashworth, chief economist at Capital Economics in Toronto.

TREND HAS SLOWED

The trend in employment growth has slowed as the labor market nears full employment and the economy’s recovery from the 2007-09 recession shows signs of aging.

Employment growth so far this year has averaged 181,000 jobs per month, down from an average gain of 229,000 per month in 2015. Still, the monthly job gains are more than enough to absorb new entrants into the labor market.

Fed Chair Janet Yellen has said the economy needs to create just under 100,000 jobs a month to keep up with growth in the work-age population.

The prospects of an interest rate hike next month were also bolstered by a solid rise in wages. Average hourly earnings increased 10 cents or 0.4 percent in October after advancing 0.3 percent in September.

The lift from a calendar quirk pushed the year-on-year increase to 2.8 percent, the biggest gain since June 2009, from 2.6 percent in September. The Fed on Wednesday struck a fairly upbeat note on inflation, saying price pressures had “increased somewhat since earlier this year.”

Despite the labor market nearing full employment, wage growth has been moderate. Economists blame this on a low labor force participation rate.

The participation rate, or the share of working-age Americans who are employed or at least looking for a job, fell 0.1 percentage point to 62.8 percent last month, not too far from multi-decade lows, in part reflecting demographic changes.

The solid payrolls gain accompanied by the surge in wages could support consumer spending heading into the holiday season, and in turn keep the economy on a relatively higher growth path.

While the household survey showed a increase in the number of people saying they could not get to work because of bad weather, the department said it was difficult to assess the impact of Hurricane Matthew on job growth last month. The storm lashed the east coast of the country last month, causing extensive flooding. The average workweek held steady at 34.4 hours.

Manufacturing employment fell 9,000 last month, falling for a third straight month. Construction payrolls increased 11,000, rising for a second straight month.

Retail sector employment surprising fell 1,100 jobs, despite expectations of a jump in early holiday season hiring.

Professional and business services payrolls rose 43,000.

Temporary-help jobs, a harbinger for future hiring, increased 6,400. Government employment rose by 19,000 jobs.

Republicans Signal Fight With Clinton!

Hillary Clinton is working to help down ticket candidates. Will it help

Hillary Clinton celebrates her 69th birthday by campaigning in the crucial swing states. Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona and North Carolina are the key to her victory. She sees an advantage in plucking away three states that normally goes to Republicans.

Republican in the Congress are by far the most inept ever to run government. Running on the narratives of agitators in the junk food media, these lawmakers are determined to create scandals where none existed.

Take for example, the John Podesta emails. I don't give a damn about those emails. They are not really important to me. Yeah, this is a scandal for the Democratic nominee, but this is cake compared to the nonsense coming out of Donald Trump's mouth. The Republican nominee and his party are determined to make life miserable for Clinton if she does win.

Right now over 200 days and counting since President Barack Obama nominated Merrick Garland for the Supreme Court. Republicans said that they will not take up any nominee until a new president is sworn in.
The most inept members of the Republican controlled Senate will fight President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton to the bitter end.
Now that it's looking likely Clinton got this in the bag, Republicans are taking back their pledge.

Embattled Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) is leading by five in state polls. The senator and former presidential nominee in 2008 said that he and Republicans will oppose any nominee Clinton lines up in her administration. He walked back the comments after the junk food media called him out on his bullshit.

He already let the cat out the bag. Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) and Sen. Ted Cruz already planning an opposition tour. Lee will likely win his senate race. Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH) also likely to win signaled his opposition to a potential Clinton nominee.

Now Clinton, Obama and Rep. Ann Kirkpatrick have seized upon those comments as a way to prove that Republicans can't govern. Democrats are hoping his "senile" moment will hurt him.

Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) the Majority Leader has been awful stubborn about getting Garland through. Matter of fact, there are a handful of federal appointees wrangled up. It will Obama without most of his nominees confirmed.

Why Is Florida Still Riding With "Little Marco?"



Pathetic lawmakers Marco Rubio and Rand Paul will try for 2020 if the Republican nominee Donald Trump fails at beating Hillary Clinton. The two lawmakers failed at winning the Republican nomination. Now as a consolation prize, the two are looking to be reelected to the senate to protect their worthless leader Mitch McConnell's hold on the chamber.

It looks like they're cruising to victory in their bid for reelection. These two are the most polarizing and least productive members of the Senate. I don't understand why so many people are willing to elect these guys, knowing that they're planning on running for president again.

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) are failed Republican presidential candidates who were defeated by Trump. They (along with Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC)) were hoping that they could defeat President Barack Obama's policies and the Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton at the ballot box.

Trump reluctantly gave his blessings to Rubio, Paul and Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) in their bid to keep the Senate in Republican hands.

Rubio is leading in some polls. But he is still being mocked as being robotic and inconsistent. He is taking on a Florida congressman who has little accomplishments other than defeating the one term asshole Allen West.

Here's the debate.


Rep. Patrick Murphy (D-FL), is a lawmaker who refuses to embrace President Barack Obama and Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton. He's running on "I'm the independent" in the room nonsense.

However, Murphy was endorsed by The Miami Herald, The Orlando Sentinel, the Tampa Bay Times, and the Sun-Sentinel.

The newspapers say that Rubio being an opportunist. They called him out on flip-flopping about retiring from the Senate. They said that he and the Republicans are deliberately delaying the confirmation of Merrick Garland, Obama's choice for the Supreme Court. He blocked recommended nominees for the federal court. One candidate he personally asked the president to look at is being held up. Rubio refuses to support measures that could stop mass shootings.

"Floridians deserve a full time Senator who will show up and work hard for them for a full six-year term," said Murphy. "From fighting the spread of Zika to addressing gun violence, and strengthening our middle class, the issues facing Florida are just too important for part time leadership. Marco Rubio abandoned this state to run for President and has the worst voting attendance record of any Florida Senator in nearly 50 years. Floridians deserve a commitment from Marco Rubio that he won’t just use them as a stepping stone to run for President again in 2020."

"Unlike Senator Rubio, I love working hard for Floridians and I am humbled to serve in Congress. Floridians can trust that I will show up and fight for them for the full six years in the U.S. Senate. I have signed this pledge and made a commitment to Florida. I hope Marco Rubio will do the same."

The Pulse nightclub shooting, Jordan Davis and Trayvon Martin's deaths were examples of reckless people contributing to gun violence. The newspapers gave him some credit. He did support Zika funding after the mosquito threat was declining. He did support immigration reform before he retreated from it.
Little Marco (R-FL) shakes hands with Rep. Patrick Murphy (D-FL)
His lukewarm support of Trump is a double edged sword. He said that Trump has "little hands" and is a "con man" who has no business being near the nuclear codes. Not to mention that failed presidential candidate New Jersey governor Chris Christie tore him apart. Christie said that he's robotic. Christie went on to endorse Trump for president bucking Rubio, the Republican's last hope for winning.

The memorized 30 second stump caught Rubio off guard. Christie put a huge dent in his presidential bid. Donald Trump buried him in the dirt after that.



Mind you that South Florida is the only place in Florida where Marco Rubio won in his failed presidential bid. He's hoping to court on Cuban Americans and dissatisfied Floridians.

He's talking the same game as Rubio. Both candidates are flawed.

Given that Murphy was the serious candidate at the time. He roundedly beat Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) in a bid for the Democratic nomination. He is considered a moderate Democrat. He was formerly a Republican. He got tired of the party shifting from its practical base. I had him beating Rubio by 3 points in the previous postings. But so far I am going to correct myself on this. I will say that Rubio will win his reelection by 1.4 points.

Clinton is leading in Florida polls. She and the Democrats are going after Rubio and McCain.

Murphy baits Rubio by writing a pledge to not run for president after becoming a senator.
 McCain said that if Clinton becomes the president, he and the Republicans will continue oppose nominees for her administration and nominees for the Supreme Court.

Obama went to Miami to aim at Rubio for his inept work as a senator.

"How can he call him a con artist and dangerous, and object to all the controversial things he's said, but then say, 'I'm still going to vote for him?'" Obama said to a boisterous crowd at a Hillary Clinton rally at a historically black college in this swing state.

"C'mon, man," he said.

"If you're willing to be anybody just to be somebody, man, you don't have the leadership that Florida needs in the United States Senate," said Obama.

Now if Florida does elect this turd back to Congress, he will spend more time preparing for president than doing his job.

Trump: Grab 'Em By The P....!



Surprise!

HILLARY CLINTON'S CHANCES AT WINNING THE PRESIDENCY IS NOW 80%.

Donald Trump didn't expect this one to happen. Fresh off a week of mishaps comes the "October Surprise". An audio recording from 2005 features Trump talking to Access Hollywood's Billy Bush.

Trump on hot mic talks dirty about women in such a vulgar way, it may have put some major damage to his campaign.

BOOM. The Trump tapes may have doomed him.
Trump on a bus describes his attempts to seduce a woman who's full name is not given in the video.

The Washington Post delivered a major shock to the 2016 U.S. Presidential Campaign.

David Fahrenthold is now getting protection in the wake of him reporting on the audio. The audio is released and it's a doozy.

Bush and Trump arrive on the set of Days of Our Lives to tape a segment of the soap opera. Trump was to do a cameo appearance on the show. In the audio, Trump said, "I moved on her, and I failed. I'll admit it."

"Whoa," another voice aid. "Whoa my man!".

"I did try and fuck her. She was married," said Trump.

Trump continues on: "And I move on her very heavily. In fact, I took her out furniture shopping. She wanted to get some furniture. I said, 'I'll show you where they have some nice furniture.'"

"I moved on her like a bitch, but I couldn't get there. And she was married. Then all of a sudden I see her, she's now got the big phony tits and everything. She's totally changed her look."

At that point, Trump and Bush appear to notice Arianne Zucker, the actress who was to take them to the set of the soap opera.
Shit just got real.
"Your girl's hot as shit, in the purple," said Bush. The celebrity agitator is a host on NBC's Today.

"Whoa!" Trump says. "Whoa!"

"I've got to use some Tic Tacs, just in case I start kissing her. You know I'm automatically attracted to beautiful --- I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait," said Trump.

"And when you're a star, they let you do it," said Trump. "You can do anything."

"Whatever you want," said Bush.

"Grab them by the pussy," says Trump. "You can do anything."

It got worse. Trump gets a rise out of one of the women on the set.

"Oh, nice legs, huh?" Trump says.
Billy Bush is in some deep shit right now. He may have inadvertently ruined Trump's presidential campaign. 
"Oof, get out the way, honey," says Bush apparently blocking the view of Zucker.

The two exit the bus and greet Zucker.

"We're ready, let's go," Trump says. "Make me a soap star."

"How about a little hug for the Donald?" says Bush. "He just got off the bus."

"Would you like a hug, darling?" Zucker says.

"Absolutely," says Trump. As they embrace and air kiss, Trump says, "Melania said this was okay."

Trump and Zucker would appear on the show. Zucker's character is asking Trump for a job at his business and tells him suggestively, "I think you'll find I'm a very willing employee. Working under you, I think, could be mutually beneficial."

Trump gives her a brush off.

"That's an interesting proposition," Trump says on-screen."I'll get back to you."

Reince Priebus, the chairman of the Republican National Committee was pissed and he condemned the Republican nominee for this. "No woman should ever be described in these terms or talked about in this manner. Ever," Priebus said in a statement.

Running mate Mike Pence kicked the press out when he got a private call from the campaign.

Clinton slammed Trump. On social media. Clinton said that the comments and remarks were "horrific" and she said that this man should never be the president.

NBC News and NBC Universal haven't commented on the situation but it's clear that Billy Bush is getting loaded into the cannon. He quickly apologized.

Trump said, hell this is locker room talk.

"This was locker room banter, a private conversation that took place many years ago." Trump said in a statement Friday. "Bill Clinton has said far worse to me on the golf course --- not even close. I apologize if anyone was offended."

As we are heading to Sunday's debate, Trump is doing damage control over this. He may have sealed his fate.

By the way, Wikileaks done a document drop on Hillary Clinton. Some of leaks include transcripts of her paid speeches to Wall Street.

Did Clinton Slashed The Bern?

The Clinton Campaign dismiss an audiotape of her dashing on Bernie Sanders and his supporters.

While being recorded, Hillary Clinton said that former rival Bernie Sanders's supporters are "living in their parent's basement". The Clinton campaign dismissed this as junk food media click bait.

The Clinton campaign says that their old rival's proposals make a whole lot of sense.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), the former Democratic candidate for president was aggressive. He forced President Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and the Democrats to take a hardline stance on social, economic and political issues. The Democrats are moving to the left on issues that were once considered political suicide for a candidate.

Clinton has struggled to win over younger supporters.

In a nearly hour tape, Clinton has suggested that 2016 presidential race has been divided into two camps: the far-right "populist, nationalist, xenophobic, discriminatory kind of approach" espoused by many Republicans. The other is the Sanders's democratic socialist vision that includes "free college, free healthcare and "go as far as Scandinavia, whatever it is."

She said that young Americans particularly college students who supported Sanders during the primaries are "living in their parents basement" and feeling like their post-graduate jobs are "not at all as they envisioned for themselves....They don't see much of a future."

"If you're feeling like you're consigned to being a barista... then the idea that maybe, just maybe, you could be part of a political revolution is pretty appealing".

She was addressing the concerns of an African-American voter who was gravely concerned about the future.

The Washington Free Beacon obtained the audio and released it yesterday. Wikileaks leaks a portion of a Democratic fundraiser where Clinton was criticizing Sanders for believing that he could jam his progressive agenda through a stubborn do-nothing Republican controlled Congress.

The Clinton campaign dismissed the audio. They said that it's true and she's determined to make things work for the working class.

"As Hillary Clinton said in those remarks, she wants young people to be idealistic and set big goals. She is fighting for exactly what the millennial generation cares most about.... a fairer more equal, just world.... That's why she worked with Sen. Sanders on a plan to provide students with debt-free college and it's why she's traveling the country listening to their concerns and talking about not only what's at stake in this election, but her plan for the generation... They've helped her craft and promote the most progressive platform in Democratic Party history."



Robby Mook, Clinton's campaign manager told the junk food media to not jump to conclusions.

"I really encourage everybody to listen to that full audio. The original piece that came out on it had to have the headline changed because it completely mischaracterized what she was talking about. She was talking about young people that she'd met who were frustrated that they graduated  from college and went into an economy where they couldn't find the job they wanted."

When Sanders appearing on GOP Sundays to talk about the controversy. He shrugged off the criticism and said that Clinton is correct on this.

"If you listen to the whole discussion that she had, a very important point that she made is that a lot of young people who went into debt, worked very hard to get a good education, can't find a job commensurate to the education that they received," Sanders said on CNN.

By the way, Julian Assange of Wikileaks had canceled his announcement on Tuesday citing "security concerns". Many of the conservatives were hoping that Assange would blow up the internet with damaging information about Clinton.

They put their trust in a man who leaked state secrets. The United States alleges Assange is a supporter of the Russian Federation. The Swedish government wants him to face trial for allegations of rape.

Respect Your Elders!

Flip-Flop: John McCain and Marco Rubio won their Republican primaries.

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) survived an insurgency attack. The two failed presidential candidates of 2008 and 2016, respectively have beaten their Republican primary challenger.

Conservatives were mounting a challenge against them.

The most notable is Kelli Ward. The insurgent was getting backing from major conservative groups. It wasn't enough. Donald Trump's last minute endorsement of McCain kind of killed the chances of Ward knocking him out.

In the beginning, Trump said that he loves the veterans, not the ones who were caught. The comment was aimed at McCain. McCain called Trump's supporters a bunch of lunatics. He said failed presidential candidates Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) were wacko birds.
Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) lost his bid for the U.S. Senate. Defeated by Rep. Patrick Murphy (D-FL) in Democratic primary.
McCain who is dubbed himself as a "maverick" even said that Ward was more of a challenge than J.D. Hayworth, a former lawmaker turned conservative agitator.

Ward slipped by calling McCain old. You know Republicans are old, White and out of touch. A whipper snapper like Ward should have been more careful with attacking an elderly man.

McCain is a Vietnam veteran.

Rep. David Jolly (R-FL) was going to run for the seat but dropped out at the last minute given that Rubio was being coached into running against one of the two ethically challenged Democrats.

Rubio, the least productive lawmaker in the Senate claimed that his consideration into the race was motivated by the Orlando massacre. But actually it's the political expediency of his fellow Republicans leaders that drove him back into the race.

Mind you that Little Marco said he would retire from the senate if he failed to win the presidency. He changed his mind when Majority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) saw Florida being the firewall between a possible Clinton administration.
Former Democratic chairwoman, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz is forgiven by the voters. She beats Tim Conva, a law professor who was endorsed by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), the failed Democratic presidential candidate.
Trump's support for Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) came just in time. The House Speaker handily beats his rival in a landslide.

Also the Democrats in Florida seem to like the former DNC chairwoman. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) survived an insurgent attack from the progressive Tim Conva.

Conva who was endorsed by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) was hoping to upset an embattled Wasserman Schultz. She was facing harsh criticism over the handling of the DNC's debate schedule and perceived favoritism towards Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.

Wasserman Schultz resigned from the DNC after Wikileaks illegally obtained the emails of members.

Some of the emails were criticizing Sanders and his supporters for being sore losers and nuisances.

Rubio's challenger will be Rep. Patrick Murphy (D-FL). Murphy defeated scandal plagued Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL). Grayson and his own wife were defeated in the Democratic primary. Dena Grayson, a medical doctor and activist was defeated in the seat Alan Grayson gave up to run for the senate.

Grayson once again heads back to Florida a defeated man. Now he will be labeled perennial.

By the way, former Texas governor and perennial loser Rick Perry will be on Dancing With The Stars along with disgraced Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte.

Tim Huelskamp Fell Flat On His Face!

Republican congressman Tim Huelskamp's Black family. The Kansas lawmaker was defeated in a GOP primary.

One insurgent lawmaker felt the bern yesterday. While I will cover the Donald Trump controversy, I want to get issue out the way.

Kansas congressman Tim Huelskamp was defeated in the Republican primary. The Tea Party insurgent was defeated by a physician. Great Bend obstetrician Roger Marshall, a somewhat moderate Republican defeated the Softball Hannity supported Huelskamp.

Marshall's supporters said that Huelskamp's ignorance harmed the 1st Congressional District.

When Huelskamp was stripped of his title in the House Agriculture Committee, many Republicans saw this as a failure. He comes from a Kansas district that depends on farm aid.

Huelskamp who was gaining a national profile often clashed with Republican leaders over the farm and budget legislation. He was a critic of the former Weeper of the House John Boehner of Ohio.

Huelskamp said that he provided the GOP a conservative voice.
Roger Marshall knocks the smirk off Republican lawmaker's face.
He even went as far to not congratulate the opponent and kicked the media watch party out of the hotel in Hutchinson.

Did you know that the Huelskamp had an adopted Black family?

Maybe the Republicans pulled the "race card" on him.

Huelskamp refused to support Donald Trump. I guess the Trump effect wiped him out.

Other lawmakers skirted by easily. Sen. Jerry Moran (R-KS), Rep. Kevin Yoder (R-KS), Rep. Lynn Jenkins (R-KS) and Rep. Mike Pompeo (R-KS) managed to easily beat their opponents.

Huelskamp will be on his way out along with Rep. Renee Ellmers (R-NC), Rep. Randy Forbes (R-VA), Rep. Donna Edwards (D-MD), Rep. Pedro Pierluisi (D-PR), and Rep. Chaka Fattah (D-PA).

Forbes and Ellmers were defeated by Republicans in their primaries. They will finish their terms.

Fattah quickly resigned from his seat after he faced defeat. He didn't endorse Clinton for president.

Edwards was running for the U.S. Senate against Rep. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD). She lost.

Resident commissioner Pedro Pierluisi was running for governor of Puerto Rico under the New Progressive Party ticket (an affiliate of the Democratic Party). He lost his primary. His seat is a four year term. He will resign from the House soon.

Think Before You Speak!

Trump's Republican backers order him to more presidential. He ignores it.

The convention bump got Donald Trump and Mike Pence in a slight lead against Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine. Trump is still defiant. The Republicans are urging him to be more presidential. Trump is ignoring that and it's starting to effect his chances.

I believe that Trump has a slight lead at 50% against Hillary Clinton 48% with 2% undecided.

Donald Trump is doing damage control after he made the comment that he would advocate Russia to hack into the emails of Hillary Clinton. Democrats are calling the notion treasonous.

Given the Democrats trying to save grace after the Wikileaks scandal. Debbie Wasserman Schultz had to resign after the scandal broke that DNC officials were trash talking Bernie Sanders through emails. The FBI is investigating who is responsible for the leaks.

Julian Assange, the Wikileaks founder is holed up in an embassy in fear of being detained for sexual assault. He claims responsibility for the hack and denies Russia had ties to it.

Trump found some way to exploit the situation.

In Miami, Trump did a presser to blast Clinton and running mate Tim Kaine. He would get riled up over the fact that the Democrats are attacking him for being inept as a leader.

Trump on the defense saying it was just a joke.

"Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing."

Those comments got him in trouble. The intelligence community is probably shaking their heads thinking that it's simply stupid.

The Republicans are alarmed by this.

As usual, Trump's biggest backers, old fart Rush Limbaugh, internet creeper Matt Drudge and Softball Hannity will find some way to make the conversation about President Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton.

Bubba Shows Hills Love!

Bill delivers.

History was made on day two of the Democratic National Convention. Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton became the first woman ever to represent a national party's presidential ticket.

She became a historical feat. The Democratic Party is willing to take on policies Republicans often scare voters with.

Bernie Sanders officially ends his bid for president. He went forth to embrace the Clinton campaign by saying he will pledge his delegates to her and help her win the election.

The night went to Bill Clinton who best described his wife, the former first lady and former secretary of state. The 42nd President of the United States was the most successful and deeply controversial of the modern day presidents. While he didn't lead us into a costly war, a near recession and a deeply partisan environment, Bill Clinton had his misfortunes in women. He was allegedly having numerous affairs on Hillary Clinton.

She shown strength by standing by Bill despite her angry towards him for the affairs.

Bill delivered a 45 minute speech with standing ovation and boos from the Bernie Bros.

As Clinton became the nominee, Bernie Sanders supporters stormed out the convention floor.

The FBI is investigating the Wikileaks email bombshell. The emails forced Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz to step down. Julian Assange who is currently held up in an embassy is facing charges in numerous countries said that he wants to damage Hillary Clinton's chances.

Democrats gave support to the mothers of #BlackLivesMatter. The mothers of Trayvon Martin, Sandra Bland, Jordan Davis, Eric Garner and Michael Brown gave a compassionate speech about their lost family members. They gave praise to Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders for giving them a message.

The winners of the day was of course Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton and the mothers of a movement (#BlackLivesMatter).

Terry McAuliffe, the controversial governor of Virginia and former DNC chairman himself got booed and hissed when he threw his support for the Trans Pacific Trade Agreement.

Actresses Lena Dunham, America Ferrera, Meryl Streep and Elizabeth Banks threw their support to Hillary Clinton. Pop singer/actress Alicia Keys closed out the event with a plea for unity.

The Democratic Convention pledges for a stronger progressive agenda. That agenda will be exploited by Donald Trump, Softball Hannity, internet creeper Matt Drudge and old fart Rush Limbaugh.
