Cupid Shoots An Arrow!

The jobs are coming.

Looks like we're off to a "good" start for the fuhrer. The January jobs report comes out with a gain of 227,000 jobs for the month. The unemployment rate ticks up to 4.8%. It shows a sign of Americans interested in finding a long term job. It's a small increase in employment.

The first job report under Fuhrer Donald J. Trump. The Labor Department conducted this job report when Barack Obama was still the president.

"Trump is inheriting an economy on its way to full employment, but there is still more work to do," says Elise Gould, an economist at the Economic Policy Institute.

CNN reports that the underemployment rate which says that people who are unemployed plus the part-time workers rose to 9.4%.

And like how they did Obama, I will do the same for the fuhrer. Conservatives ignore the facts once again for political gains. They will likely credit Trump for the jobs number.

Now that Obama's out of office, how many of these conservatives are going to spread misinformation about 95 million Americans not working?

Cuck 'n Tuck!

Cuckold Tucker Carlson take the 9pm spot. Fox News gambles on a man who struggled with ratings at the previous networks.

Tucker Carlson, the founder of The Daily Caller and former weekend host of Fox & Friends is now promoted to succeed Megyn Kelly. Carlson who recently replaced Greta Van Susteren will now get the primetime spot at 9pm.

So as it's followed, only White old men dominate Fox News's primetime lineup.

Bill O'Reilly, Tucker Carlson and Sean "Softball" Hannity now have to defend their fuhrer Donald J. Trump from accusations. They will have to defend everything. Even if Trump eats a pizza with a fork.

The fuhrer has friendly ties to O'Reilly, Carlson and the softball.

This will be the latest attempt at gambling the future of the network with a perennial failure like Carlson.

Carlson who is most famous for wearing those stupid bow ties during his confrontational debates with Paul Begala and James Carville on CNN's Crossfire.

When CNN took a nosedive in the ratings, they canceled Crossfire. Carlson would end up taking the 5pm spot over at MSNBC. When then liberal agitator Keith Olbermann helped the network succeed in ratings success, Carlson was soon replaced with liberal agitators like Rachel Maddow, David Shuster and Al Sharpton.

Carlson held the spot for a moment before he was bumped again for Ed Schultz.

Carlson would soon appear as a guest host on Fox News shows like The O'Reilly Factor and Hannity.

Then he would take a spot over at Fox & Friends. He was on the couch during the weekends.

When Van Susteren abruptly left the network in 2016, they filled the void with Brit Hume and then permanently gave Carlson the spot.

Now in the wake of Megyn Kelly leaving Fox News for NBC, the pick was pretty simple and risky as well. Now Fox News primetime is really lacking diversity. It's mostly old White guys who beeyotch about what's wrong in America.

Carlson already made the news when he was trying to insult Tariq Nasheed and Lauren Duca.

The Fuhrer Praises The Bear!

Donni and the Vlad. The fuhrer is praising the Russia president's move to not expel Americans from consulates.

We're going to be good friends, trust me!

That's the words of your fuhrer Donald J. Trump when he takes office in January. Democrats and some Republicans are voicing concern that the fuhrer is playing into the Russian leader Vladimir Putin's hands.

Putin threatens retaliation against the United States in the wake of President Barack Obama's executive orders imposing sanctions and expelling of diplomats from Russia.

Putin backed off threats of kicking out the U.S. diplomats. That's won praise from the Trumpster.




Trump's praise comes fresh after the sanctions were imposed. The 35 suspected spies that the U.S. believes had an hand in the meddling in the election were told to bounce. If they choose to stay, they might be detained in federal time out.

"All Americans should be alarmed by Russia's actions," said the president.

Russians were barred from entering two compounds in Maryland and New York.

Trump's praise brought unease among Republicans. Inept Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) said to the junk food media that "Russia isn't our friends."

House Speaker Paul Ryan said that Obama was right on the move. Failed presidential candidates and current senators John McCain (R-AZ) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) both said that Trump was out of line by praising Putin.

Trump supporters don't give a fuck about the tweet. They believe that Trump is right no matter how dumb his move are.

Obama did put Trump in a vice grip. Because if Trump undoes the sanctions, he could piss off the intelligence agencies.

Debbie Reynolds Passed Away!

Debbie Reynolds passed away. Carrie Fisher, her daughter passed away yesterday.

BREAKING....

Not long after Carrie Fisher passed away, her mother, legendary actress Debbie Reynolds passed away. One day after the news broke. I am truly saddened by this latest event. This broke around 4pm.

This is a shocking moment in American history.

Carrie Fisher was best known for being Princess Leia Organa in the Star Wars franchise. She was in London reprising her role. When she was heading back to the United States, she would be unconscious on a plane flight.

She was rushed to the hospital for cardiac arrest. She would pass away on Tuesday. Not long after the news broke, her mother, Debbie Reynolds issued a statement saying that she was heartbroken and torn by the lost of her daughter.

Now the family confirmed that Debbie had a stroke and didn't recover from it. She was 84 years old.

TMZ reported that she was hospitalized for the emergency at Cedar-Sinai Hospital where she was pronounced dead at 11am.

Todd Fisher spoke on behalf of the family.

"She wanted to be with Carrie.", he said to the junk food media.

Born Mary Frances Reynolds in El Paso, Texas, she grew up without a father. She would strive for success in acting. She would get a Golden Globe nomination for her role as Helen Kane in the move "Three Little Words." But the movie "Singin' in the Rain" made her a legend of Hollywood.

Other notable successes include The Affairs of Dobie Gillis (1953), Susan Slept Here (1954), Bundle of Joy (1956 Golden Globe nomination), The Catered Affair (1956 National Board of Review Best Supporting Actress Winner), and Tammy and the Bachelor (1957), in which her rendering of the song "Tammy" reached number one on the music charts. In 1959, she released her first pop music album, entitled Debbie.

She starred in How the West Was Won (1963), and The Unsinkable Molly Brown (1964), a biographical film about the famously boisterous Molly Brown. Her performance as Molly Brown earned her a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actress. Her other notable films include The Singing Nun (1966), Divorce American Style (1967), What's the Matter with Helen? (1971), Mother (1996 Golden Globe nomination), and In & Out (1997). Reynolds was also a noted cabaret performer. In 1979 she founded the Debbie Reynolds Dance Studio in North Hollywood, which still operates today.

In 1973 Reynolds starred in a Broadway revival of the musical Irene and was nominated for the Tony Award for Best Lead Actress in a Musical. In 1969 she starred in her own television show The Debbie Reynolds Show, for which she received a Golden Globe nomination. She was also nominated for a Daytime Emmy Award for her performance in A Gift of Love (1999) and an Emmy Award for playing Grace's mother Bobbi on Will & Grace. At the turn of the millennium, Reynolds reached a new younger generation with her role as Aggie Cromwell in Disney's Halloweentown series. In 1988 she released her autobiography titled, Debbie: My Life. In 2013, she released an updated version titled Unsinkable: A Memoir.

Reynolds was a noted businesswoman, having operated her own hotel in Las Vegas. She was also a collector of film memorabilia, beginning with the landmark 1970 MGM auction. She was the former president of The Thalians, an organization dedicated to mental health causes. Reynolds continued to perform successfully on stage, television, and film into her eighties. In January 2015, Reynolds received the Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award. In August 2015, it was announced Reynolds would be the recipient of the 2016 Academy Awards Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award.[4] In 2016, a documentary about her life was released titled Bright Lights: Starring Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds.

She was married three times. She married pop singer Eddie Fisher in 1955, with whom she had two children with. Carrie and Todd were the children. She also married business executive Harry Karl for a while. She would also marry a real estate developer named Richard Hamlett before divorcing him.

Carrie did blame her mother for her turmoils. She claimed that her mother's cold reputation led her to drugs, alcohol and depression. They had a fallout for nearly a decade. Debbie did at least make peace with Carrie before their passings.

They reunited and decided to work together on projects.

Reynolds was survived by her son and her granddaughter, Billie Lourd.

Shocking stuff in the entertainment world.

Yung Mazi Got A Lead Sandwich Instead Of Waffles!

Rapper Yung Mazi had a lead sandwich and a hospital bill.

Atlanta rapper Yung Mazi was bucked in the chest at a local Waffle House in the Buckhead neighborhood. He and his girlfriend were enjoying some breakfast when a terrorist shot him mulitple times and taking off.

The terrorist is still at large and the Atlanta Metro Police are checking the cameras for vehicle and pedestrian movement around Piedmont Road.

Police say that Mazi was ordering the food when he was shot.

He is reportedly recovering from the shooting. No condition was released at this time.

As most rappers, they usually brag about the "trap life". Mazi said it est, he's been shot over 10 times and he said that "looks like that type of dude" that strokes fear in the weak. He's after all a "real dude" from the streets of Atlanta.

He said that he might walk around with at least $250K in jewelry on and not worry about people noticing.

Mazi is a devout Muslim and is the father of three children.

In his biography he states he was shot five times --- one bullet hitting him in the head and leaving him temporarily brain damaged, almost ending his life.

"When the bullet hit me in the head it greatly affected me. I had to learn how to read, write, and speak all over again. I'm still not 100% right. I tried doing my daughter's elementary school homework and it was hard. I couldn't count money. My brother had to send text messages for me from my phone. It was deep."

After this shooting, I hope he reconsiders the "trap life" before going back into the studio.

The rapper has ties to "trap life" rapper Kevin Gates and Waka Flocka Flame.

Zsa Zsa Gabor Passed Away!

Socialite Zsa Zsa Gabor passed away. Until the mid-2000s, Zsa Zsa live her life in glamour and luxury.

Before we had all this garbage reality television and socialites like Paris Hilton, Blac Chyna and the legendary Kim Kardashian West, there were the Gabor sisters. Magda, Zsa Zsa and Eva were the ladies who had class, charm and a long list of men whom they've married. But of the three only one survived until her late nineties.

We bid adieu to legendary socialite and actress Zsa Zsa Gabor. The last of the famed Gabor sisters passed away at home in Bel Air at the age 99. When I last looked into the issue of Zsa Zsa, the junk food media was saying she was living in deplorable conditions.

The junk food media confirmed that she passed away of a major heart attack.

Her caretaker or the final husband Frederic Prinz von Anhalt let her deteriorate. At age 94, she was bedridden. She had her leg amputated because he allowed her to have a bed sore that became an infection.

And for the most part, she was dead already. It was painful to see her in the conditions she was in.

Mind you, Zsa Zsa outlived her sisters Magda and Eva. She even outlasted her daughter Francesca Hilton. Her only daughter was from famous hotel founder Conrad Hilton. The Hilton family disapproved of the relationship.  Zsa Zsa and Francesca have long feuded with the Hilton family over the fortune.

Zsa Zsa claimed that she gave birth to Francesca out of a forcible rape.

She and Francesca were not close. Francesca was feuding with von Anhalt over the custody of her mother. He banned her from the property and placed an hold on her inheritance, Francesca would die of a stroke in 2015.

von Anhalt would never tell Zsa Zsa that her daughter died. He said that it would "break her".

Zsa Zsa was also famous for slapping a Beverly Hills cop. After a pull over in 1989, she slapped Paul Kramer after a pullover. He believed she was under the influence and driving without valid ID.

She would get time in county lockup when she refused to get treatment for alcoholism and failure to perform community service.

The celebrity, known for her multiple marriages and jet-setting lifestyle, had suffered a spate of setbacks to her health in recent years. After a stroke in 2005, she had been hospitalized repeatedly since 2010 after breaking her hip in a fall. Known more for her public antics and lavish ways than acting abilities, she was likely the first figure to inspire the phrase “famous for being famous.” She died just two months short of her 100th birthday.

Born as Sari Gabor, she was the middle daughter and the most notable.

Zsa Zsa was married nine times. She divorced seven times and had one annulled.

Alan Thicke, thank you for the years of laughs and charm. You will be missed.

Obama: Fox's Brainwashing Gave America Trump!

President Barack Obama voices frustration with Washington lawmakers who look upon fake news as facts.

Relentless rambling from fake news sites, Fox News and that annoying conservative agitator Sean "Softball" Hannity helped that controversial billionaire/racist/sexist/pussy grabbing/reality television star Donald J. Trump become your next dictator-in-chief.

Fox News shot to the top in the early 2000s. It was created by Roger Ailes and Rupert Murdoch. In 1996, it started slow but quickly rose to being the number one watched cable news channel.

It ran on this narrative that it's "fair and balanced" and the "we report, you decide" mantra.

It also ran on the hot women in skirts and heels. It's primetime lineup is very profitable. Agitators like Bill O'Reilly, Shepard Smith, Bret Baier, Neil Cavuto, Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson and Sean "Softball" Hannity do exceptionally well. Because of their attacks on President Barack Obama, failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and the Democrats, White people poured out in favor of this asshole and his Christian Extremist sidekick.

Roger Ailes would have been proud of his network. Unfortunately his behind the scenes antics doomed his career.

And of course, the president has followed the scandal over at Fox. He believes that Fox News created this bubble of resistance. No matter what is said or proven as fact, a Fox News viewer will not support it.

President Barack Obama is not happy about this election. His legacy could be turned upside down with the Republicans back in charge.

He made his feelings known in one of his last interviews with the Rolling Stone. He talks to Jann Wenner about the election, his post-presidency and the future dictator.

He said that Democrats can't connect to America because of the junk food media brainwashing them with garbage.

"The challenge is people are getting a hundred different visions of the world from a hundred different outlets or a thousand different outlets, and that is ramping up divisions. It’s making people exaggerate or say what’s most controversial or peddling in the most vicious of insults or lies, because that attracts eyeballs", said Obama.

He said that Fox News, talk radio and outlets like The Drudge Report makes it harder for Democrats to get their message out there. These outlets spread the seeds of distrust and despair and it makes Americans very skeptical about government.

Obama added, "In this election, [White working class voters] turned out in huge numbers for [Dictator-elect] Donald Trump. And I think that part of it has to do with our inability, our failure, to reach those voters effectively. Part of it is Fox News in every bar and restaurant in big chunks of the country, but part of it is also Democrats not working at a grassroots level, being in there, showing up, making arguments. That part of the critique of the Democratic Party is accurate. We spend a lot of time focused on international policy and national policy and less time being on the ground. And when we're on ground, we do well."

He said that fake news sites sponsored by foreign governments like Russia also make it easier for Trump to win this election.

Fox News, MSNBC and CNN are driven towards controversy for partisan rancor and ratings.

I can't even watch the cable news right now.

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.

Expect More!

A San Antonio detective was bucked while doing a traffic stop. His death along with three other shootings of police officers are showing a disturbing trend. Is there really a war on cops?

I don't condone violence against any member of law enforcement. However, too many of these incidents in America signals retaliation. The disturbed will use their Second Amendment rights to attack police officers. They are frustrated with the failure to indict officers in the murders of unarmed people of color. Some groups are plotting for mass attacks on communities of color and those in law enforcement.

White extremists are interested in positions with law enforcement. Some of the members of law enforcement were fired out the cannon after they were caught doing something racially offensive.

The rise of extremism is fueled by the victory of the most divisive piece of shit elected to the White House. His win is a victory to the so-called alt-right. This group are the professional suit and tie White extremists.

Maybe there's some truth to this!

Is there really a war on cops?

The officers acquitted have gotten away with "justifiable" murder without an ounce of remorse. Now I fear that the mentally insane are willing to pour blood of officers for the lives lost to police violence.

Now I remember the controversial billionaire/racist/sexist/reality television star who will serve as your next President of the United States has said that there's a war on the police. He said he will be the president of "law and order" and will work to help the inner cities. In the mind of your soon to be president, the inner cities are hellholes and he promises to make them great again.

Well if he keeps his word, I expect gun violence will increase. He is a huge supporter of the Second Amendment and believes its essential to not take firearms from "real Americans".

Donald J. Trump is well on his way to create a civil war.

Well in the world of law enforcement, a good guy with a gun is still an active shooter and their lives are on the line.

In Texas, Missouri, Kansas and Florida, there were police shootings.

A manhunt ended today for the individual who murdered a veteran San Antonio police detective who was during a routine traffic stop. Det. Benjamin Marconi was shot and killed a terrorist named Otis McCain. The terrorist was apprehended without a shot fired. The terrorist was a Black man. He will be indicted on capital murder. He is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. He could face the DEATH CARD.

In Missouri a sergeant with the St. Louis Police was shot in the face by a man who pulled up next to him at a traffic light. The terrorist George P. Bush was caught. He allegedly has a long rap sheet with criminal activity. He was caught without a shot fired. The sergeant was injured but will survive his injuries. The terrorist is innocent until proven guilty. Attempted murder in Missouri can carry LIFE in the iron college.

In Kansas City metro area, a Gladstone Police officer was shot at point blank range after a routine traffic stop. The officer survived his injuries. He managed to get the terrorist. The terrorist was killed after the encounter. The terrorist wasn't identified at present time. The Kansas City Metro Police and FBI will aid in this investigation.

In Florida, an officer was shot by a terrorist after he done a routine stop. Officer Jarred Ciccone was shot in the shoulder by the terrorist. The terrorist Jon Hay was quickly apprehended and is charge with attempted murder. He will face LIFE in prison if convicted. The terrorist is innocent until proven guilty.

And of course, we will expect the controversial Wisconsin sheriff of Milwaukee County David Clarke, Jr. comes on to bash President Barack Obama, Black Lives Matter, and gun control advocates. Clarke is a bully behind the badge. He is a token and a fucking internet troll.

Clarke is vying for a position in the Trump Klan Administration.

Sharon Jones Passed Away!



In the late thread, we'll pay tribute to soul singer Sharon Jones. We just learned she died of pancreatic cancer. Jones was the leader of the soul group The Dap Kings.

The band announced the tragic news tonight.
Sharon Jones passed away. She was the lead singer of The Dap-Kings.
Jones was born in North Augusta, South Carolina and was the youngest of six children. Her parent gave her motivation. As she was a regular at the church, Sharon would enter talent shows and try out for bands as a background vocalist. While she was dreaming of being a singer, she spent days watching the interns at Rikers Island and being an armored car guard for money loads.

Sharon would get her break in the 1990s. In 1996, she would got a chance to break into the music scene with her 2002 debut Dap Dipping with Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings.

She was nominated for a Grammy in 2014. Sharon and her group's last album Give the People What They Want was a critically acclaimed album.

Gwen Ifill Passed Away!

Gwen Ifill, the host of PBS Newshour and Washington Week passed away.

We've lost a legend.

Gwen Ifill, the host of PBS NewsHour had passed away today of cancer. She was 61 years old. A remarkable woman of color who covered Washington, DC like no other. She was at the forefront of a journalism vanguard as a Black woman in a field dominated by white men.

She co-hosted NewsHour with Judy Woodruff and broke ground by being an all-female anchor team on a network nightly news.

Gwen was the daughter of Caribbean immigrants. She wanted to cover the news since the younger ages. She was a native of New York City. She grew up in Jamaica, Queens. She was the fifth of six children.

She was the host of Washington Week and worked both positions. She had an opportunity to gain national recognition as a debate moderator.

She hosted two vice presidential debates. She hosted the 2004 debate between then Vice President Dick Cheney and then senator John Edwards. She also had an opportunity to host the 2008 debate between then senator Joe Biden and then Alaskan governor Sarah Palin.

Back in 2007, bigot talker Don Imus was caught up in scandal where he called the Rutgers women's basketball team a bunch of "nappy headed hos". He called Gwen Ifill the "cleaning lady".

She handled this with such class.


She had covered the White House and Congress and was praised from both sides of the political aisle.

She took a month long leave from PBS without disclosing her medical condition. I am guessing she had terminal uterine cancer.  

President Barack Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, President-elect Donald Trump and Vice President-elect Mike Pence came out with condolences today.

Trump Gets The White House Tour!

President-elect Donald Trump meets President Barack Obama.

So what should we talk about?

I don't know!

I am done watching CNN, HLN, Fox News, Fox Business, MSNBC, and Bloomberg. They are forever labeled the "liberal media". They missed the point. They gave Democrats and liberals false hope of an election victory for Hillary Clinton.

I give credit to not only the president-elect but that old fart Rush Limbaugh, Sean "Softball" Hannity and Matt Drudge. I want to congratulate them on their nonstop agitation this election season. They now made it easier for America to more divided.

There is so much going on in the world. I mean protests and unrest in America will now be apart of the norm now that the most divisive person to ever hold office is elected. A man with no experience or the temperament to lead is the president.

He will not be my president.

I will treat Donald J. Trump, Melania Trump and Mike Pence like they did the Obamas. I will show no respect to Trump and his family.

I bet you that 4 out of 10 are not happy about this election.

Nate Silver goes down in flames.

President Barack Obama and President-elect Donald Trump met today at the White House. Of course, bad blood will exist between two.

The first black president and the most polarizing in-coming leader traded barbs throughout the years.

Already I am planning on taking my frustrations to the town halls.

I don't want to post any videos with Trump in it until January 20th. I will hold my word to that.

Queen Bey's Country!

Beyonce surprise appearance at the CMA.

Beyonce made a surprise appearance at the Country Music Awards to perform a duet with The Dixie Chicks, Wednesday.

The queen of pop and the country music trio started off their set by giving a shout out to Texas. They all grew up in Texas. They collaborated for a remix to Daddy Lessons. The album comes from Lemonade, the visual album.

The audience were on their feet when Queen Bey performed.

Many country music stations refuse to play the song because they don't believe it's a country music song.

The song went viral. Now it's streaming its way to Billboard's top spot in not only mainstream but country.

Many in the audience didn't expect Beyonce to appear at the awards. Brad Paisley confirmed Queen Bey's appearance in the second hour of the show.

Softball Hannity Is A Foul Ball!

Sean "Softball" Hannity is a foul ball.


The most annoying conservative agitator in radio and television is pimping discouragement in his right wing carnival. He cites from The Drudge Report and the most dumbest agitator in the blogosphere.

Sean "Softball" Hannity read from The Gateway Pundit about Hillary Clinton struggles since the FBI director James Comey opened his investigation into her email server. According to the softball, President Barack Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) have abandoned Clinton.

The softball cites the social microblog Twitter as his source.

CNN's Brian Stelter who the softball is feuding with called him out once again on peddling bullshit as news.

Stelter noted that Pro-Trump social media users tweeted about it, further amplifying the falsehood.

And a contributor to a relatively credible web site, ForexLive.com, posted an item asking "Is the First Lady distancing the Obamas from the Clintons?"

Then new characters were added to the fake storyline. "Elizabeth Warren just unfollowed Hillary, and Michelle Obama deleted all her tweets about Hillary," Jack Posobiec, who calls himself a "recovering political operative," tweeted at 2 p.m. Tuesday. He kept going, adding President Obama's name to the list, without any evidence to back it up.

The softball did apologize but went on to bash the junk food media for being in the tank for Clinton.

The softball is desperate for something to fall upon Clinton. He and many of agitators of the conservative/alt right media are pushing for Trump.

Clinton: I Ain't Got No Worries!

Does Hillary Clinton got this wrapped up? Could we all be wrong?

When will it be over?

If you're a Clinton supporter, don't panic. She is LIKELY to win this. She has a 75% chance at winning the election. If you are already tired of the election and the news about her emails, then you're not alone.

For die hard Trump supporters, its the turnaround for the controversial billionaire.

The folks over at Fox News are having a nonstop montage of Hillary Clinton and the goddamn emails. Without any facts, the agitators on that network are making assumptions about Clinton. They claim her campaign is panicking.

A discipline campaign doesn't panic. Clinton is pretty confident that she will win this general election. The email scandal isn't earth shattering. It's a distraction.

Democrats are furious about this. They believe the FBI director is playing politics.

FBI director James Comey wrote to Congress a letter that acknowledged an issue that has nothing to do with her. This set off the conservatives and their standard bearer Donald Trump.

Trump licking his chops is calling upon the FBI to finally deliver justice to Clinton.

Trump who is struggling in the polls is hoping this surprise could help him.

Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) and many Republican lawmakers are saying this could be the smoking gun.

The FBI obtained the laptop of Huma Abdein, the estranged ife of disgraced congressman Anthony Weiner.

Weiner who resigned from Congress in 2011 after he was caught sexting women online became an issue back in July. He allegedly sexted a 15 year old girl and the FBI is looking on that laptop for any evidence of child porn.

Now I don't care about this stuff. In 10 days, one of these candidates will be the president. Expect this partisan rancor to carry the new president into the new year.

Flight Attendants Told Black Doctor To Not Aid Sick Passenger!

Dr, Tanuka Cross was told to sit down after she tried to assist an ailing airline passenger. She posted on Facebook about the experience and it went viral. 

A woman who flew on Delta Airlines is none too happy about her experience.

Dr. Tamika Cross was shoved aside by Delta's flight crew after a passenger was having a medical issue.

On a trip from Detroit to Chicago, Cross had told the crew that she's a doctor, but the flight crew ignored her. They believed that she wasn't legitimate.

They told her to sit down or be restrained.

So she hits social media to let the world know how Delta employees react to professionals.

I'm sure many of my fellow young, corporate America working women of color can all understand my frustration when I say I'm sick of being disrespected.

Was on Delta flight DL945 and someone 2 rows in front of me was screaming for help. Her husband was unresponsive. I naturally jumped into Doctor mode as no one else was getting up. Unbuckle my seatbelt and throw my tray table up and as I'm about to stand up, flight attendant says "everyone stay calm, it's just a night terror, he is alright". I continue to watch the scene closely.

A couple mins later he is unresponsive again and the flight attendant yells "call overhead for a physician on board". I raised my hand to grab her attention. She said to me "oh no sweetie put ur hand down, we are looking for actual physicians or nurses or some type of medical personnel, we don't have time to talk to you" I tried to inform her that I was a physician but I was continually cut off by condescending remarks.

Then overhead they paged "any physician on board please press your button". I stare at her as I go to press my button. She said "oh wow you're an actual physician?" I reply yes. She said "let me see your credentials. What type of Doctor are you? Where do you work? Why were you in Detroit?" (Please remember this man is still in need of help and she is blocking my row from even standing up while
Bombarding me with questions).

I respond "OBGYN, work in Houston, in Detroit for a wedding, but believe it or not they DO HAVE doctors in Detroit. Now excuse me so I can help the man in need". Another "seasoned" white male approaches the row and says he is a physician as well. She says to me "thanks for your help but he can help us, and he has his credentials". (Mind you he hasn't shown anything to her. Just showed up and fit the "description of a doctor") I stay seated. Mind blown. Blood boiling. (Man is responding the his questions and is seemingly better now Thank God)

Then this heifer has the nerve to ask for my input on what to do next about 10 mins later. I tell her we need vitals and blood sugar. She comes back to report to me a BP of 80/50 (super low, to my non medical peeps) and they can't find a glucometer. We continue down that pathway of medical work up, but the point is she needed my help and I continued to help despite the choice words I had saved up for her. The patient and his wife weren't the problem, they needed help and we were mid flight.

She came and apologized to me several times and offering me skymiles. I kindly refused. This is going higher than her. I don't want skymiles in exchange for blatant discrimination. Whether this was race, age, gender discrimination, it's not right. She will not get away with this....and I will still get my skymiles....



It sparked #WhatADoctorLooksLike movement on social media. It also sparked discussion about how Black doctors are treated in the general public.

Delta was none too happy about the situation. And of course, conservatives are trying to discredit her story by trying to claim she made it up for attention.

Delta released a statement over this.

Delta continues to investigate a story surfaced by Dr. Tamika Cross in a recent post on Facebook.

We are troubled by any accusations of discrimination and take them very seriously. The experience Dr. Cross has described is not reflective of Delta’s culture or of the values our employees live out every day. We are in the process of conducting a full investigation. We’ve reached out to Dr. Cross to speak with her directly, talked with our crew members and we’re reaching out to customers who were on board to gather as much information as we can.

While there is much we can’t share because our investigation involves confidential personnel matters, we do want to share what we can.

Three medical professionals identified themselves on the flight in question. Only one was able to produce documentation of medical training and that is the doctor who was asked to assist the customer onboard. In addition, paramedics met the flight to assist the customer further.

Flight attendants are trained to collect information from medical volunteers offering to assist with an onboard medical emergency. When an individual’s medical identification isn’t available, they’re instructed to ask questions such as where medical training was received or whether an individual has a business card or other documentation and ultimately to use their best judgment.

Delta's commitment to diversity, inclusion and respect of all of our customers worldwide is rooted deeply in our company’s values and culture. As a global carrier with a diverse workforce, serving a diverse customer base, we are committed to treating all passengers with kindness and respect.

The Reckoning Pt. 4: The Final Chapter @ UNLV!

Trump is going to be even more combative towards Clinton.

We're all but certain that Donald J. Trump will clearly bring everything he's got to take down Hillary Clinton. The Republican nominee is so upset that's he's struggling, he's decided to rile his supporters up with kookspiracy stories.

Trump invited Pat Smith, the half-brother of President Barack Obama, Malik and alt-right agitator James O'Keefe to the debate.

Pat Smith is a relentless critic of Obama and Clinton. She blames the pair for her son Sean Smith being killed in the 2012 attack in Benghazi.

Malik Obama is the half-brother of the president. He's an anti-gay politico who has dual citizenship with Kenya and the United States. Malik said he endorsed Trump for president this year. He also brought the man who claims Bill Clinton is his father.

James O'Keefe is a notorious concern troll who does "investigative" journalism for conservatism. He's the famous "ACORN Pimp" who gain fame and infamy for altering his tapes to make people he recorded seem sinister than what they were. He and his former girl Hannah Giles were forced to pay a man $100,000 and punitive damages after he was fired out the cannon by ACORN. O'Keefe has released numerous videos claiming activists were intentionally agitating at Trump rallies. He makes claims that the Clinton campaign and the Democratic Party were paying these people to infiltrate events.

I have no word on who Clinton's bringing in. But I expect it's going to be polarizing Mark Cuban, the celebrity agitating billionaire who owns the Dallas Mavericks, Rev. Jesse Jackson and Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards.

Expect Chris Wallace to find some curve ball in this debate. He's the Fox News GOP Sundays and was the first moderator for the first Republican debate in Cleveland.

So I be perfectly blunt with you. Donald Trump will have to stay focused on topics and not stray off the plantation with accusations.


Who won this debate?
