The elder George H.W. Bush former president is being treated for pneumonia.
Well wishes to G.H.W. and Barbara Bush.
Former president George H.W. Bush, Sr. is being treated for a mild illness and it got the junk food media's attention.
41 will not attend the transfer of power. He is having breathing problems and is being treated at Houston's Methodist Hospital for pneumonia and his wife Barbara was admitted for fatigue and coughing.
Bush is in stable condition and is resting comfortably.
Earlier he was placed in ICU to address "an acute respiratory problem stemming form pneumonia.
Bush is the father of 43 and failed presidential candidate Jeb Bush.
The Bush didn't endorse the fuhrer Donald J. Trump for president. They considered him an embarrassment to the Republican Party.
Even though, the Carters. the Bushes, the Clintons and the Obamas hate this guy, they'll show an ounce of respect of Trump.
He and vice fuhrer Mike Pence will take over at 12pm on Friday.
I plan on not watching it. I will not give this asshole any respect or the dignity.
The CIA concluded that the Russian Federation interfered in this election by spreading misinformation about failed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. The Russian government aided by Wikileaks had infiltrated the private emails of the Democratic National Committee and John Podesta's emails.
Intelligence agencies have identified individuals with connections to the Russian government who provided WikiLeaks with thousands of hacked emails. The reasons were to hurt Clinton and boost their puppet, the controversial billionaire/racist/sexist/pussy grabbing/immature fuhrer in waiting Donald J. Trump.
The Russian president Vladimir Putin and the Kremlin denies interfering in the election. Putin did say that Trump was a brilliant man who had the will of his people on his side.
In a secret briefing Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), the inept Majority Leader voiced doubts that Russia had a hand in the hacking of the emails of Democratic leaders. So McConnell doesn't put his trust in the federal agencies that fight terrorism. He only believes the CIA when they can produce yellowcake uranium in Iraq. He doesn't seem to care where Osama bin Laden was. He believed President Barack Obama's predecessor George W. Bush when he said that bin Laden was probably hiding in a cave.
Me not know. Yet he gets intelligence briefings.
Even the fuhrer is denying he got a leg up from his buddy he can see from Sarah Palin's backyard.
Trump said no way. "I don't believe they interfered. it could be Russia. And it could be China. And it could be some guy in his home in New Jersey."
Trump already pissed of the Democratic People's Republic of China by taking a personal call from the president of Taiwan (the Republic of China).
White House and the CIA declined comment on the issue.
Fake news sites with ties to Russia include: The Drudge Report, InfoWars, Prison Planet, ZeroHedge, Daily Trump, BeforeItsNews and Corbett Report are named as websites that traffic propaganda.
Colin Powell endorsed Hillary Clinton for president. Powell and Condoleezza Rice both former Secretaries of State under George W. Bush have publicly denounced Donald Trump's presidency.
George W. Bush's former Secretary of State Colin Powell had endorsed Barack Obama for president in 2008 and 2012.
He was roundly criticized by the likes of that old fart Rush Limbaugh for selling out principles.
Powell renounced the Republican Party. He warned the party to start making inroads with minorities and young voters. In 2013, autopsy, party leaders said that they can't be the party of White people.
The party ignored the warning. The party nominated Donald J. Trump for president. He's another old White and rich man. He said that old fart Limbaugh, Sean "Softball" Hannity and internet creeper Matt Drudge are too polarizing. The party is still afraid of them and the impact they could have in primaries.
He said it's time to move on past the Republican Party.
He's now an independent. He came out in favor of Hillary Clinton for president.
Powell who served in the Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush administration back in the days said that Clinton is not the perfect candidate.
Clinton was notified of the endorsement while campaign in Florida.
Hacked emails from Wikileaks showed that Powell has strong disdain for Trump.
"Donald Trump is nuts. Everyone wants me to speak out, but I will pick the time and place for maximum effort like I did in 2008 and 2012. Right now, Trump is his own worst enemy."
Trump called former secretary of state Condoleezza Rice a bitch.
Powell is still a Republican at heart but he's totally done with the rabid base that give birth to Trump.
I'm still a Republican because I believe in a strong defense, because I believe in the entrepreneurial spirit that is so typical of the Republican Party of the past," said Powell.
By the way, it was revealed that Trump once called former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice a "bitch" while at a charity event. He believes in his mind that Rice couldn't handle pressure when she was negotiating overseas.
Rice on her part said, "Can't wait until November 9!"
Rice called upon Trump to drop out the race. Trump is in this until the end.
I want to make this clear, there is no such thing as a united nation. The people here in the United States will forever be cynical of someone because of their differences.
It's unfortunate that 9/11, Martin Luther King Day and Christmas are supposed to be days of unity.
We put too much symbolism into these days. Cause once the names are read, the bells cling and the speakers say "there's hope for change", the next day, we head back to our corners waiting to destroy one another.
We are so freaking divided. It's divided among race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, education, economic and political standings.
President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are relentless attacked by Republicans for the 9/11 attack in Benghazi. The Republicans claim that they are more stronger on terrorism. They forgot a Republican president dealt with the country's worst act of terrorism on homeland soil.
It doesn't matter how many times our country comes together to mourn the 2846 victims of the September 2001 tragedy.
Our country changed 15 years ago. On September 11, 2001, we were attack by al Qaeda inspired hijackers. They managed to take four planes and use them as weapons on American targets.
The World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania are now sacred grounds for the numerous lives lost in this act of terror.
September 11, 2001 was the day that George W. Bush was thrust into a war against a foreign terrorist organization that many barely known. Bill Clinton had dealt with this organization during the first attack at the World Trade Center, the Kenya and Tanzania embassy bombing, USS Cole, the attacks on American citizens in Saudi Arabia.
The organization al-Qaeda claimed responsibility for this mission in which apparently over a dozen individuals left their families and decided to join a conservative Sunni fundamental Islamic extremist group for a suicide mission.
Since 9/11, Republicans boasted they're strongest on handling terrorism. Unfortunately, their obsession with cutting government and stifling human rights led to the worst disaster on American soil. George W. Bush exploited 9/11 to lead us to two wars.
Al-Qaeda was led by a Saudi Arabian man who was an heir to successful construction company. This gentleman, aided by an Egyptian doctor/activist, and a Kuwaiti engineer managed to plot a mass attack on the United States.
Osama bin Laden, Ayman al-Zawahiri and Khalid Sheikh Mohammed were the backers of terrorist attack.
They saw lapses at American airports. They found that an opportunity was born when the United States lets their guard down after an election.
This tragedy brought together America.
For nearly 10 years, Osama bin Laden lived in hiding. He was held up in a safe haven in Pakistan.
President Barack Obama kept his promise. He was relentless in his quest to capture bin Laden. He didn't mince words on May 2011. The president announced to the world that the leader of al-Qaeda was killed by the United States Military Special Operatives in Abbottabad, Pakistan.
President Barack Obama has been really aggressive on disrupting al-Qaeda and its affiliates.
Now that al-Qaeda broken up into the new scare de jour the Islamic State, Republicans once again are flexing their tongues instead of their brains. They often attack Obama for not realizing the threat of "radical Islam" and the Islamic State.
The president ignores them and focuses on using his allies and the finest in intelligence and military to help him defeat an enemy that is more savvier online than on the battlefield.
Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are both flexing their tongues on how to take on terrorism.
Being partisan is a part of 9/11 as well. To this day, Republicans believe that their policies kept America safe.Republicans claim that if it wasn't for Bill Clinton, the 9/11 attacks would of never happened. They blame Clinton for allowing bin Laden escape to Afghanistan. They claim that if it wasn't for George W. Bush, Osama bin Laden would of never been taken out. They refuse to acknowledge that Barack Obama solely focused on the fight against terrorism.
REPUBLICANS ONLY USE THEIR TONGUES IN THE FIGHT AGAINST TERRORISM.
Perennial loser Mitt Romney met with some prominent Republicans over the weekend. He is being courted to run an insurgent campaign against Donald Trump, the Republican presumptive nominee.
Romney served one term as governor of the state of Massachusetts. Romney's legacy is most forgotten. He is a failed candidate. He failed at winning the U.S. senate. He failed at capturing the Republican nomination in 2008. As the Republican nominee, he felt a landslide in the U.S. presidential election in 2012.
Agitator for hire, Bill Kristol met with Romney at a Washington hotel thinking about a third run.
Kristol is practically begging for a third party candidate to stop Trump.
Now we've heard this nonsense before.
Romney will be forever labeled a flip-flopper if he chooses to run for an independent bid.
His former running mate, House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) has set of a shitstorm by saying that he's not ready to jump on the Trump bandwagon. That led to his buddy Republican honcho Reince Priebus to have a sit-down to air out differences.
A huge number of Republicans are staying away from Cleveland. Former presidents George W. and his father George H.W Bush joined failed presidential candidate Jeb Bush in opposing the Trump nomination.
Exit stage left.
They will not appear at the Republican convention. Matter of fact, Senators John McCain (R-AZ), Jeff Flake (R-AZ), Ben Sasse (R-NE), and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) are staying away as well.
The Republican Party created the mess. They were playing with the cards. They created Donald Trump. They were using the dog whistle to rile up votes. Trump is basically using the foghorn and it lead to him becoming their soon-to-be nominee.
By no means, I am not the strongest supporter of Bernie Sanders or Hillary Clinton. They are both are flawed. People aren't inspired by them at all.
Trump is a flawed candidate as well. He will not get things done. If he becomes our president, he will have the most inept Congress to deal with. He will deal with Ted Cruz and Rand Paul in the senate. They are going to stall everything. The Democrats are plotting as well. They are waiting for him to slip so they can use him to have Republicans defeated in the Midterms.
Trump is getting the most attention and it could lead to him becoming the 45th President of the United States.
By all means, let the Republican Party fight it out all the way to the general election. They already lost by having Trump as their nominee.
Breaking the widow of former president Ronald Reagan, Nancy Reagan passed away at age 94.
The former first lady was the rock to Ronald Reagan who she referred to as "Ronnie".
President Barack Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama, the Bush family, Bill and Hillary Clinton were notified of this.
The Republican candidates were notified as well.
The former actress who got roles in many movies and television married Ronald Reagan after a messy divorce from his first wife Jane Hyman.
Nancy Reagan was a charming woman. She was the mother of liberal activists Ron Reagan and Patti Davis. Her step-son Michael Reagan is a conservative agitator.
She will be missed among the Republicans and Democrats alike.
Nancy Davis Reagan (born Anne Frances Robbins) was an American actress and the wife of the 40th President of the United States, Ronald Reagan. She was the First Lady of the United States from 1981 to 1989.
Nancy was born in New York City. After her parents separated, she grew up in Maryland, living with an aunt and uncle for some years.
As Nancy Davis, she was a Hollywood actress in the 1940s and 1950s, starring in films such as The Next Voice You Hear..., Night Into Morning, and Donovan's Brain. In 1952, she married Ronald Reagan who was then president of the Screen Actors Guild. They had two children together. Reagan was the First Lady of California when her husband was Governor from 1967 to 1975 and she began to work with the Foster Grandparents Program.
Outpouring of grievances from President Barack Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama, former first ladies Barbara Bush, Laura Bush and Hillary Clinton. Clinton is the only former first lady running for president.
Nancy Reagan became First Lady of the United States in January 1981, following her husband's victory in the 1980 presidential election. She was criticized early in his first term largely due to her decision to replace the White House china, despite its being paid for by private donations. She aimed to restore a Kennedy-esque glamour to the White House following years of lax formality, and her interest in high-end fashion garnered much attention as well as criticism. She championed recreational drug prevention causes by founding the "Just Say No" drug awareness campaign, which was considered her major initiative as First Lady. More controversy ensued when it was revealed in 1988 that she had consulted an astrologer to assist in planning the president's schedule after the attempted assassination of her husband in 1981. She had a strong influence on her husband and played a role in a few of his personnel and diplomatic decisions.
The Reagans retired to their home in Bel Air, Los Angeles, California, in 1989. Nancy devoted most of her time to caring for her husband, diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 1994, until his death at the age of 93 in 2004. Nancy remained active within the Reagan Library and in politics, particularly in support of embryonic stem cell research, until her death in March 2016.
World News Today send our condolences to the Reagan family.
If I was a Republican, I would be ashamed. I would be ashamed that these candidates have no clear strategy when it comes to solving problems.
CBS will host this latest train wreck with the Republicans.
I am so done with debates and these clowns. They have no real idea on how to solve problems. All they can pull out their asses is.....platitudes.
Heat is being felt on the stage. CBS News hosts John Dickerson and Major Garrett along with Kimberly Strassel of the Wall Street Journal host this debate in Greenville, South Carolina.
The six candidates running for the Republican nomination already got a jilt in the system. With the death of Supreme Court justice Antonin Scalia, Republicans will have no choice but to address what's going to happen with the court.
I am going to be clear that the Republicans are desperate.
What pisses me off, is the platitudes being spoken by the Republican candidates. They offer no real solutions to fixing this country.
Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, Ben Carson, John Kasich, and Jeb Bush square off with the gloves off and feelings hurt.
Of course, Barack Obama, George W. Bush, Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, and liberalism will be hammered by the candidates.
If you're watching the debate, get some Advil. Also if you're playing the drinking game, look for the same shit and same name drops.
The global city of Paris was rocked by a horrific terrorist attack.
I don't want to jump to conclusions on the death count, but I can tell you that the causality count is extremely high. Me and S. Baldwin send our condolences to the victims of tonight's tragedy in Paris.
According to the numerous sources, there was a series of mass shootings and bombings in the entertainment districts of Paris.
This worst of the attacks happened at the Le Bataclan Music Hall. The concert featured American rock band Eagles of Death Metal. While people were cheering on the music, these terrorists opened fire on concert goers, people enjoying dinner and watching a soccer event. These individuals who were cornered by the law decided to take more lives out by detonating suicide explosives.
This tragedy has merit global attention.
#PrayforParis is trending on the social networks.
The blame game also is trending.
I am picturing our conservative agitators saying that President Barack Obama didn't do enough or say enough. I can imagine that terrorism will be front and center in the Democratic debate. I can imagine that Republicans will agitate bigotry towards Muslims.
Muslims condemn this tragedy.
The French government imposed a mandatory curfew for the entire country. President François Hollande announced that borders are closed. He also vows to find everyone involved in this tragedy.
The leaders come to the aid of the French government. President Barack Obama, Britain's David Cameron, Canada's Justin Trudeau, Germany's Angela Murkel, and Russia's Vladimir Putin all send sympathies to the French Republic.
The Beirut bombings, the Jordanian police officer who murdered American contractors, the apparent take down of the Russian Boeing plane has intelligence agencies pointing fingers at the Islamic State.
At least seven individual attacks took place, comprising of at least six shootings and three explosions.
Shootings were reported around the Rue de la Fontaine-au-Roi, Rue de Charonne, and Rue Bataclan.
Petit Cambodge and Le Carillon shootings
A shooting at the Petit Cambodge ("Little Cambodia") restaurant in the 10th arrondissement of Paris resulted in several deaths, which are reported to be between four to eleven.
The assailants also shot people outside a bar called Le Carillon near the Canal Saint-Martin.
According to a police official, 11 people were killed at the restaurant. The assailants reportedly "fled in one or two vehicles" after the shootings.
La Belle Equipe shooting
Shots were fired at La Belle Equipe, a restaurant in the 11th arrondissement of Paris.
Bataclan theatre siege and mass shooting
Shootings and hostage takings occurred at the Bataclan theatre in the 11th arrondissement where the American rock band Eagles of Death Metal were playing to an audience of around 1,500. 60—100 hostages were taken.
The band's members escaped without injury.
Someone who escaped the attack told a journalist that the attackers mentioned Syria and that there were five or six attackers. One witness in the Bataclan stated that a gunman yelled "This is because of all the harm done by Hollande to Muslims all over the world."
There were further attacks reported on police and first responders who arrived at the scene after initial reports of shooting inside the theatre.
One of the attackers at the Bataclan had explosives, according to a police officer at the scene.
Julien Pierce, a journalist from Europe 1, said that he saw armed men enter the Bataclan, and two or three men not wearing masks fired indiscriminately on the crowd.
The siege ended at 1 am.
The police reported that an estimated 100 people were killed at the theatre.
Four attackers were killed, three of whom died by detonating their suicide belts.
Stade de France explosion
At least 10 people were injured or killed in an explosion at a bar near the Stade de France in the Paris suburb of Saint-Denis.
The President of France, François Hollande, was at the Stade de France attending an international friendly football match between France and Germany. Hollande was safely evacuated from the scene and met the French interior minister Bernard Cazeneuve to coordinate a response to the emergency.
Explosions were heard on the live televised broadcast of the match.
Following the game, fans were brought onto the pitch to await evacuation as police monitored all exits from the venue.
I stand with the people of France in the wake of this horrific tragedy. We will continue to follow this tragedy.

It's gotten ugly in the race. Trump goes on the third rail.
Donald Trump is still the front runner. It's a shocking to the establishment that a reality television star is trouncing the favorite sons. Jeb Bush, Rand Paul, Marco Rubio and even Ted Cruz are taking nosedives while Trump, Ben Carson and Carly Fiorina continue to soar.
Republicans are feuding with one another. The fights are ugly and the possible nomination of Trump may spark a boycott within the party.
Trump is never apologizing for anything. He's went after a lot of people. But one person, Republicans seem to still respect is 43.
Trump went into sensitive territory. He managed to tell the truth about the handling of terrorism.
The Politico reports that Trump gave an interview to Bloomberg. The clown went right into it.
“I think I have a bigger heart than all of them," Trump responded. "I think I’m much more competent then all of them. I mean, say what you want, the World Trade Center came down during [George W. Bush's] time.”
Ruhle interjected: “Hold on, you can’t blame George Bush for that."
“He was president, OK? Don’t blame him or don’t blame him, but he was president," Trump continued. "The World Trade Center came down during his reign. If you look at Sandy Hook, those people are still begging for help."
That was aimed Jeb Bush. Bush is struggling in the polls. He was the "favorite son" of many in the establishment. But since Trump joined the race, the establishment candidates took a nosedive.
This feud between Bush and Trump has gotten the junk food media's attention.
According to the Republicans, you can't blame Bush for 9/11. It wasn't his fault. Of course, you can't blame him for missing the urgent memos about foreign terrorists plotting an attack on the United States.
9/11 was Bill Clinton's fault. He failed to understand terrorism. He was busy messing around with interns at the White House. He let our embassies and USS Cole get attacked.
Clinton ignored Osama bin Laden.
When the first attack on the World Trade Center happened, Clinton was not doing his job.
No comment.
Truth is that nine months into George W. Bush's first term, the world saw the World Trade Centers, the Pentagon and a piece of rural Pennsylvania go up in flames. The flames of terrorism happened under Bush's watch.
After the tragedy, the president and Congress mounted war. We soon went into war with Afghanistan and later into Iraq. We were under the impression that Bush "kept us safe".
When Bush won his second term, a horrible hurricane struck the Gulf coast. Hurricane Katrina came to shore and destroyed New Orleans. We were under the impression that Bush "kept us safe".
Those events are examples of Bush keeping us safe. Of course, Republicans will always resort to finding fault in Benghazi over 9/11. For Republicans and their conservative allies, Benghazi was a bigger disaster than 9/11.
Former president George W. Bush decided to stay out of the race. He's "endorsed" Jeb. But in reality, he's painting and keeping his distance from the political theater.
Out the trash bin comes former vice president Dick Cheney. He and daughter Liz are pushing a book criticizing President Barack Obama's handling of the war in Iraq.
The former vice president and his lobbyist daughter are pimping out a book criticizing the Iranian deal. Again, pimping this notion that the world is evil and America must stop them.
The former vice president is by far the most hated in American history.
The Republicans often distance themselves from the Bush legacy. The failures of leadership mount through Dick Cheney's influence on George W. Bush. As the right hand man, Cheney will advice the president on where they should go if they were to engage in combat. Bush would lead us into two wars. One in Afghanistan and one in Iraq. Those wars cost numerous causalities. It became one of the most costliest wars to ever be on record.
George W. Bush enjoyed high job approval ratings during the September 11th tragedy and first years of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Also winning reelection with a steady economy was a plus. The ball was dropped during his second term. The wars in Afghanistan and Iraq went south, his job approval went down. When Hurricane Katrina and Rita went down, the Bush legacy went down in flames. Then the economic crash occurred. That put the country in a recession.
This led to the Republicans being thrown out of Congress and Barack Obama becoming the president. When he became the president, the Republicans wasted no time trying to find fault with the new president.
They would immediately start this insurgency movement to undermine the progress the president.
The Republicans went into this narrative that Obama's not working, Obamacare is a disaster, Obama this and Obama that. That helped them win back Congress.
Now the Republicans control Congress and they're back to their old ways. Still acting inept and still trying to blame the president for their own failures. Their failures are causing our country to suffer.
Yet, it's Obama's fault.
Matter of fact, the bitching continues.
Cheney and his daughter wrote a book criticizing President Barack Obama's foreign policies.
The Ohio Republicans are mad that the President Barack Obama issued an executive order changing Mount McKinley to its tribal name Denali. The president travels to Alaska to address climate change and of course grant land to the oil companies. The mountain was named after William McKinley.
House Weeper John Boehner (R-OH), Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH) and John Kasich, the clown running for the White House all bitched about it. They believe the president is throwing William McKinley under the bus.
As I watched the junk food media AM shows and political agitators give Cheney and his daughter Liz exposure.
Climbing from underneath the rock, Cheney pimps this notion that the president is not willing to see engagement with dangerous regimes such as Iran. He also blames the president for the mandatory troop withdrawal from Iraq. The Islamic State has grown in power and Republicans are seething for another war engagement.
Their book is basically a critique of President Barack Obama's handling of Iraq and the rise of the Islamic State. Also added their criticism of the Iranian deal.
The former vice president claims the president doesn't believe in American exceptionalism.
This book Exceptional: Why the World Needs a Powerful America is released today and it's certainly a talked about book.
Also conservative agitators are willing to book him and Liz on their shows. They ask if they're surprised about the rise of Donald Trump and the fall of Jeb Bush.
Cheney without endorsing said that Trump is an example of the anger at Obama and Hillary Clinton.
Controversial blogger got banned from at least one social media forum.
Charles C. Johnson (aka Chuck Johnson) is a notorious race-baiter. He is the founder of conservative blog GotNews. He is allied with agitators such as the conservative Craigslist, racial asshat Colin Flaherty and numerous other bigots.
He spends his time in the social media trolling. He wants to prove the point that liberals lie.
He wants to prove that unarmed Black suspects being killed by law enforcement deserved it. After all, you seen the Facebook page of the deceased Michael Brown and he's giving you the finger. Proof of a violent thug.
Note that THUG is being used instead of NIGGER. The conservatives are using every event in which a crime is committed by a Black male as an excuse to denounce #BlackLivesMatter.
Johnson is a part of this.
Today, Mediaite can claim a victory in the battle against racism. They report that Chuck is banned.
Chuck was trying to troll Ferguson activist DeRay McKesson. He threatened to publish the information about McKesson.
So, I woke up to this. Hate is organized in America. & yes, I take this as a serious threat. pic.twitter.com/V0zThcJJs6
McKesson wrote an email to Twitter and called upon others to effectively throw Chuck off the social media. It was successful. For the time being, Chuck is off the social network.
Thank you, @twitter. And he's been suspended before. I am hopeful that this time it's permanent. And thanks, y'all. pic.twitter.com/3JgFLRP9gl
Chuck has been suspended from the site several times before, largely for releasing news figures’ personal information, such as the Dallas nurses Amber Vinson and Nina Pham who contracted ebola. Many have derided Johnson as a serial harasser and called upon Twitter to remove him from the service, his main megaphone along with his would-be news site GotNews.com
He tried to regain his account and created phony profiles. Alas, Twitter suspended them.
Omaha officer Kerrie Orozco was gunned down by a suspect who didn't give two fucks about her life. He killed a wife, mother, sister and friend of the community. This heartless act gotten the junk food media's attention because she was going to be on maternity leave after this.
Of course we blame the shooter. But since we live in this gotcha media, the fingers start pointing at the people who have an opinion about it. Of course in the minds of conservatives, it's obviously going towards President Barack Obama.
Damn, it's almost like they believe that Obama was the man who shot two officers. Seeing that he's spoken about the disparaging statistics of Black residents and interactions with police being on the rise, one would think he's talking about a real issue in America.
Of course not. In the minds of the tone deaf, he's preaching anti-cop rhetoric. He's trying to justify rioting and looting. He won't allow the critics to say "THUG". He won't mention the names of hundreds of other victims lost to gun violence.
On average, one day can equal 2000 people killed by gun fire. That's a list that would take at least four hours to read if the president had time to cover every name.
Now I haven't got the whole information on the police officers who paid the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty, World News Today will continue to honor those who serve in law enforcement.
There was a officer from Omaha, NE who was about to go on maternity leave. She was killed by a man who she tried to serve an arrest warrant to. The man went down in a hail of gunfire.
Marcus Wheeler was killed after firing on police.
Kerrie Orozco, a 29 year old mother of a newborn daughter was on duty. She was suppose to be on maternity leave a few days later. But that didn't happen. She got slugged in the chest just above her bulletproof vest. She would die of injuries at a hospital.
Orozco was assigned to the gang activity unit. She was trying to deal with criminal activity in the streets of Omaha.
The shooter Marcus Wheeler, 26 eventually ate a bullet sandwich after a brief pursuit. He died on scene.
A New Orleans Housing Officer was found this morning with a slug to the head. In a brazen assassination, the police officer was bucked without remorse. The suspect in this shooting is on the loose. The name of the officer wasn't released to the public.
These two officers were doing their jobs and paid the price for protecting the citizens they swore to protect. World News Today sends our condolences to the families of Kerrie Orozco and the New Orleans officer who's name wasn't released.
Now the Blame Game. A tradition that comes whenever the agitators finds some reason to blame someone other than the actual criminal.
Wheeler was a Black man. So of course, the conservative outrage meter is on. Wheeler was a "racist" cop killer according to the idiot Jim Hoft.
Usual word vomits include the following. Will Obama say something about Orozco? Will this be a reminder of the violent behavior of Blacks? Will Rev. Perm and Cut His Nuts Off Jackson say something about the shooting of this young woman and her role as an arresting officer? Will the people supporting the #BlackLivesMatter Movement finally understand that #BlueLivesMatter?
The conservative agitator Loudmouth Bill Cunningham went right into it on his Sunday night cabal.
Cunningham is the pitchman for the conservative Craigslist. He took over when the head honcho Matt Drudge (founder of the conservative Craigslist) left the Sunday night radio gig after failing to make $$$$.
The moment he mentioned the shooting of two officers, I say I bet he will say Obama in the sentence.
New Orleans police are searching for the suspect who assassinated an officer.
As predicted. The agitator went into the holier than thou argument that the president supports criminal behavior and his words are dangerous to cops.
Note this Loudmouth Cunningham is a fraud. He has a trash television show on The CW that is going into its fourth season.
Loudmouth Cunningham plays the role of a midday agitator from iHeart Radio in Cincinnati at WLW 700 AM. On Sunday nights he does it from New York while he's taping his reality television talk show. He's the second most listened to in the noon agitation. He and that old fart Rush Limbaugh are buddies.
What makes him so bad is the fact he trashes on the very same folks he kindly invites on his reality talk show. He has spoken on the John Crawford shooting the very same way he's talked about Michael Brown and Tamir Rice.
Again we don't condone the killing of anyone in law enforcement.
Right wing agitator Bill Cunningham.
We don't condone police brutality, abuse of power, the Blue Wall of Silence, and the killing of unarmed suspects.
We believe that those in law enforcement should be held accountable for any event in which they use improper judgement in a situation. That includes firing a service weapon, using restraint, profiling an individual based on "suspicion", running a traffic signal without lights or siren, and doing unprofessional conduct while on and off duty.
We believe that law enforcement should be photographed or videotaped by residents. An officer's body camera or a dash camera isn't effective enough. The officer's dash camera or body camera footage can magically disappear or it may be released in portions to sway public opinion.
We believe that the media shouldn't believe "everything" a cop tells. That includes a public statement on a controversial event, a grand jury decision, leaking evidence to portray an unarmed suspect as the one who agitated the event and spreading the perception that anyone who criticizes the police are anti-cop.
The Supreme Court allows an arresting officer to "stretch" the truth. Basically the officer can lie when doing a vice/terrorist/drug sting operation, a pull over, a citation, an arrest, a restraint and a discharge of a service weapon.
We take the opportunity to talk about issues that face our community, the government and the corrupt mainstream media.
I tend to have a rational view on most things. I am not a raving partisan. The constant negative reactions towards President Barack Obama, Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown and the Black community in general by the conservative agitators in the media made me a little more liberal on most issues facing America.
Yeah, I call them names. They deserved to be called more than just that. I believe that they're entitled to their opinions. But I figured that since they're name calling, why not!
When they die, some will care. Others won't.
Officer Kerrie Orozco meeting with youth at a sporting event.
Although I tend to be more independent minded on issues, I have to conclude that I tend to be a little more progressive (liberal) on issues now because of four notorious agitators.
What pisses me off more than anything is the tone deafness of conservatives whenever President Barack Obama actually makes a statement on an issue.
This month he held a forum on policing and reminded them how proud he was of the men and women in law enforcement. He told those in attendance that there needs to be a call for unity among the police and the residents of the recent events.
The president mentioned the rise in cop being killed while on duty. He also signed an executive order banning the use of military style weapons and vehicles for police.
The president's speeches are often lost to the bombastic agitators who solely believe that no matter what is said, Barack Obama is just a naturally born NIGGER/ They believe that he's a criminal and he should be locked up with the rest of them.
I will conclude the month with a honest opinion about the agitators in the media.
Washington, DC police nabbed the man who is accused of murdering a family and setting their properties on fire.
The racist right is obsessed with calling every Black criminal a Thug. Any criminal act by Black man is now considered an act of thuggery.
Forget the innocent until proven guilty, according to the racist right, the Black criminal is automatically guilty. No need for a trial or jury. Send this thug to the gas house.
Thug is the new NIGGER.
A man who was caught overnight was responsible for the death of four people in Washington, DC.
Of course, our friends on the racist right have this obsession to cry foul to every event in America.
The racist right believes that the police involved killings of unarmed Freddie Gray, Tony Robinson, Walter Scott, Darrien Hunt, John Crawford, Tamir Rice, Rekia Boyd, Eric Garner, Michael Brown, and the vigilante killing of unarmed Trayvon Martin are equal to every Black on White crime in America.
This 34 year old man was being sought by the FBI and U.S. Marshals after he was implicated in a murder and arson in an upscale Washington, DC neighborhood. There was a murder of four, an arson of the home and sports car.
DC police focused on the cameras and saw a sportscar zoom through the neighborhoods. Then in suburban Maryland, they saw the sportscar stop. A man get out and soon a fire.
Savvas Savopoulos and wife Amy along with their son and housekeeper were murdered by a crazed man.
The law determined that they have DNA evidence to pinpoint him to the crime. The fool eat a piece of pizza and they swabbed the crust. Daron Dylon Wint was caught in a matter of days. He's currently in city lockup awaiting trial.
CNN reported Thursday that police are searching for the 34-year-old Wint, who is believed to have traveled from D.C. to New York City and has previously faced charges of “theft, assault and a sexual offense.”
He is wanted for first-degree murder in the deaths of Savvas Savopoulos, the CEO of a Maryland building materials manufacturer, his wife, Amy, 10-year-old son Philip and their housekeeper, Veralicia Figueroa.
As for motive, police believe Wint was looking for money. During the incident, one of Savopoulos’ employees dropped off $40,000 in cash at the home for the suspect. He is believed to have escaped in the family’s Porsche, which was later found burning in the parking lot of a church in Maryland.
World News Today sends our condolences to the Savopoulous family and the family of Veralicia Figueroa. Their lives were lost in this senseless tragedy.
Prince performs at Baltimore. Conservative outrage over Marilyn Mosby attending the event.
When Prince came to perform for Baltimore he released a song in tribute to Michael Brown and Freddie Gray.
The song was leaked online and it's called "Baltimore".
As Prince performed for three hours at a sold out show, one guest managed to catch the ire of conservatives and the Baltimore police union.
In attendance is Marilyn Mosby, the state prosecutor in the case against six Baltimore cops who were charged in the murder of Freddie Gray.
While the junk food media went up Interstate 95 to cover the derailment in Philadelphia, the junk food media was silent (or barely covered) the Baltimore state prosecutor taking stage at a concert.
It's nothing bad about her appearing on stage. But to the racist right and the police union, it's a conflict of interest. They are calling for her to recuse herself and have an independent prosecutor look into this. They are also demanding that she gets ethics charges for appearing at the concert.
They seriously believe that Mosby is inexperienced. They feel that she's playing politics. Despite the already numerous federal investigations into the city police and the millions of payouts to victims of police brutality, this Freddie Gray situation is different.
If it wasn't for them cameras filming the officers lift up Gray and drag him to the vehicle while he was screaming in agonizing pain, they would have gotten away with a disciplinary or no charges at all.
Mosby found enough evidence to charge the six officers with involuntary manslaughter and misconduct in office. They had enough evidence to charge the officers. They will have a day in court.
They are innocent until proven guilty.
The racist right is angry at Marilyn Mosby.
The murder of Freddie Gray set off two days of rioting in the city.
Of course the networks were running with cameras in tow trying show the world that young Black teens are looting the Foot Locker for Nike's. Or the Black man stealing a 40 out of the CVS. Maybe they managed to witness two correction officers stealing a bag of chips and grape juice.
Conservative agitators take to the internet to slam Mosby, the mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, Rev. Perm, Cut His Nuts Off Jackson, Eric Holder, Attorney General Loretta Lynch, and their favorite son President Barack Obama as being racial agitators and NIGGERS.
I bet them white extremists were seething in joy watching Black frustration in the matter of injustice launch into violence.
Knowing the Republican Party and its allies in the conservative movement are color blind and tone deaf is understatement.
O'Loofus complains about Baltimore having a high crime rate. Yet, he never thinks about taking his private jet down to the city. He never will visit a neighborhood and interact with the residents in Baltimore. In his mind as well as many other agitators in the media, the city is an American Benghazi.
But to see the Democratic Party use this as a weapon is also a disgrace. They seem to take advantage of these issues to encourage Black America to rise up against injustice.
In the minds of Republicans, the Democrats are the ones who keep Blacks poor. I agree. But not the way the Republican Party sees it.
No one wants to see people live in poverty. At least in my opinion, no political party owns "poor", "poverty" and "welfare".
Once again, I stress that Republicans are condescending. They don't see the poor as victims. They see them as lazy, immoral, leeches and handouts. They believe just because you have a microwave, a refrigerator, a television, a computer and a cell phone, you are able to work. They don't know the poor's struggle. They can't understand that people who have things have earned them too.
Angry Megyn saying that Marilyn Mosby attending a Prince concert was inappropriate.
They see you in the store with an EBT card or state issued child support debit card buying groceries and some items maybe name brands. They believe if you're buying a pack of Oreos. Fruit Loops, and Coca-Cola 36 cubes on food stamps, you're abusing the system.
You're buying a pack of Newport or Marlboro cigarettes or an Ol' English. And even though you got a little bit of cash, the moment they see that EBT card, they consider you leeching off the system.
They believe that you own a luxury car or a nice home, but still earn less than a "hard worker", you're a parasite to the government.
That narrative being express by agitators makes Republicans look like heartless assholes.
The Democrats believe the safety net is unfiltered. No one should go hungry. No one should live on the streets or homeless shelters.
The Republicans believe that the safety net creates entitlements and dependency. And even though, in their minds, giving to the poor is going overboard, they too believe that no one should go hungry. They believe you have to work 50 hours at least earn a piece of that apple pie.
See in a perfect world, you should have a home. If there's some who are of the working class unable to work, they should be able to own a house and luxuries of a single family home. Why have a family lives on the streets? It should be right not a privilege to have a home.
No one wants to see their child buried before them. The families of Trayvon Martin, Rekia Boyd, John Crawford, Michael Brown, Tony Robinson, Darrien Hunt, and Eric Garner weren't thrilled about their deaths.
They have a right to complain about issues of police brutality, the Blue Wall of Silence, and the need for reform. When the junk food media gets the names of the victims of gun violence (especially by law enforcement) it's almost routine to hear about the race. If the victim is Black, the conservative agitators immediately start searching court public records and social media to find something incriminating. They find guilt-by-association in the friends, immediate family members or non-essential figures. Conservatives will label the victim a "thug" or call him "Obama's son".
It never ceases to amaze me that a man smoking weed is more criminal than an officer putting a bullet in him. And to make this clear, that man was unarmed at the time.
The families deserve the right to see those in law enforcement (or an armed vigilante) be held responsible whenever they fire their service weapon. And if the suspect is unarmed, the families have a right to demand an officer be charged with criminal misconduct.
But unfortunately with the first Black president, the conservatives who agitate on radio, television and the social media are polarizing it to a degree where anything that involves race is magnified.
You may not be able to obtain Prince's new song on YouTube. He doesn't advocate video streaming or use of music without permission. Anytime, you upload a video or download illegally a song from Prince, you may be subject to a lawsuit. He doesn't play any games when it comes to his copyright. So if you want to hear the song, hear it on Soundcloud or buy it on iTunes and Google Play.
But in the blame game, the agitators would find some reason to attack the president. When American citizens are gunned down by callous individuals, the president comments on it. The president is passionate about the issues in America. He has a right to say whatever he wants. But for the agitators, no matter what he says, the agitators will dissect it and make it into some political blame game.
Today, we have a tragedy.
In the city of Hattiesburg, Mississippi, the community is in mourning. Two officers were gunned down by callous murderers. The routine pull over on Saturday became a deadly situation.
A veteran officer and a first year officer were gunned down after one of the passengers open fire on them. Benjamin Deen, 34, and Liquori Tate, 24 were the victims of this tragedy.
We here at World News Today send our condolences to the families of Hattiesburg officers Benjamin Deen and Liquori Tate and NYPD officer Brian Moore.
The Jackson Clarion-Ledger reports that the suspects were quickly caught. They are facing charges for capital murder and obstruction of justice.
Marvin Banks, Joanie Calloway, and Curtis Banks were put in county lockup. Cornelius Clark was also busted in this crime.
Authorities arrested Curtis Banks, 26, and Marvin Banks, 29, and Joanie Calloway, 22, early Sunday morning. They were taken to Troop J of the Mississippi Highway Patrol, where they were to be questioned by the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation.
Cornelius Clark in lockup.
Cornelius Clark, age unavailable, was arrested Sunday afternoon and charged with obstruction of justice, Mississippi Bureau of Investigation spokesman Warren Strain said.
Marvin Banks and Calloway have been charged with two counts each of capital murder, and Curtis Banks is charged with two counts of accessory after the fact to capital murder.
Marvis Banks was convicted of possession of stolen property in Forrest County in 2010, according to Mississippi Department of Corrections records. He was sentenced in November 2010 to one year and one day to serve, with four years of probation.
His probation was revoked, and he started a three-year sentence that ended in June 2012, when he was freed from custody on earned release supervision. That ended in May 2014.
Both Marvin and Curtis Banks were charged with the sale of crack cocaine in July 2013, according to Forrest County arrest records.
At this point, authorities are not discussing the motive. They said interviews with the suspects are ongoing. Toxicology tests are also pending.
Residents were very upset over this. Hattiesburg haven't seen a law enforcement officer killing in over 30 years.
"Never in my life have I experienced or seen anything like this except on TV, and to be in the midst of it, it's shocking and heartbreaking," Tamika Mills said. "As we were coming down Fourth Street, we noticed a bunch of lights. As we came on through, (Pearnell Roberts) told me to turn around because she saw somebody laying on the ground.
They heard the shooting and checked on the situation. They called 9-1-1.
"So I backed up. That's when we noticed the officer was down. We just saw that one, but in the course of me being on the phone with 9-1-1, I turned and I saw another officer across the street rolling on the ground. (Roberts) ran across the street to check on him. He wasn't all the way alert but he asked her, 'Am I dying? I know I'm dying. Just hand me my walkie-talkie.'"
This community is sadden by this. We are determined to bring those to justice. The words of Hattiesburg mayor Johnny DuPree are felt across the nation.
Hattiesburg Mayor Johnny DuPree spoke from the hospital after the shooting, asking for prayers and telling the public that the suspects would be found.
"The men and women who go out every day to protect us, the men and woman who go out every day to make sure that we're safe, they were turned on (Saturday) night," DuPree said during a brief news conference outside the hospital. "But the person or persons who did this are not safe in the City of Hattiesburg."
Multiple law enforcement agencies swarmed to the scene between Gordon Street and East Fourth Street, crisscrossing throughout the fringes of downtown.
Strain said the three are being held in different locations outside of Forrest County, which is routine in a situation like this.
Gov. Phil Bryant, a former law enforcement officer himself, commented on the deaths on Sunday morning.
"Deborah and I join all Mississippians this morning in mourning the death of our two police officers in Hattiesburg. This should remind us to thank all law enforcement for their unwavering service to protect and serve. May God keep them all in the hollow of his hand."
It is the first slaying of a Hattiesburg officer since Jackie Dole Sherrill was killed on New Year's Eve in 1984.
So Joanie Calloway, Cornelius Clark, Marvin and Curtis Banks were charged with capital murder and obstruction of justice. Mind you that the shooter and those associated are innocent until proven guilty.
In criminal law, even though the person who fired on law enforcement was the sole shooter, those who didn't stop the shooter, hid the shooter in the wake of a manhunt and aided the shooter's injuries instead of the victims are considered murderers. That's why there's three others involved.
They didn't stop the shooter. They aided the shooter. They treated the shooter's injuries and hid evidence. That's obstruction of justice. That's murder in the eyes of law enforcement.
But in the wake of two officers being killed, who are they really going to blame for the death of the lawmen?
Two Words: BARACK OBAMA.
You know in the wake of the Freddie Gray murder by law enforcement, the partisan agitators have sought to discredit the BlackLivesMatter movement. The agitators must find some tangent issue in America to discredit Freddie Gray, Michael Brown, Trayvon Martin and Tamir Rice.
Today, they find the death of two officers in Mississippi.
Fast food worker was fired out the cannon after she posted on her social media about the controversy. She praised the killers.
Nobody is calling for the killing of cops. Those in law enforcement must endure a daily routine where their lives are on the line 24/7. I don't condone the killing of law enforcement.
Never mind, a Subway restaurant worker from Laurel, Mississippi posted on the social media about it. She was happy that they were killed. She was let go after that posting. Some of her co-workers tipped off the bosses. And while she's entitled to her opinion, the junk food media will use this an excuse to discredit the peaceful protesters who call for justice against police brutality and more police training for those using firearms.
But we also need reasonable gun control as well. To prevent this from happening we need to look into how individuals obtain illegal firearms. We must shut the door on unregistered firearms.
Nobody is immune from the firearm.
Understand that the bullet has no eyes. It will always hit a target.
Key witness in Michael Brown shooting got a night in the county after disorderly conduct with the law.
Damn, not a great day to be Dorian Johnson. Just a few days after filing a federal lawsuit against the city of Ferguson and the former cop Darren Wilson, the friend of Michael Brown got his ass back in lock up again.
Giving himself another reason to why the racist right attacks him.
Once a thug......
Okay, here's what happened. According to the junk food media, he was resisting arrest and having possession of drugs. An arresting officer was trying grab his brother after a protest. Johnson was trying to film and shout out the cops. The cops decided that Johnson was too much of a burden so they put the clappers on him. The cops said that he was pretty damn feisty.
The arrest came on the same day that an attorney announced Johnson is suing the city of Ferguson, its former police chief and former officer Darren Wilson. In the lawsuit, Johnson claims he suffered psychological scars and emotional distress on the day that Wilson stopped him and Brown, CNN affiliates KTVI and KPLR reported. He is seeking at least $25,000 in damages and is also asking for an injunction to stop what he calls discriminatory police practices in Ferguson, KTVI and KPLR said.
MSNBC reports that Dorian Johnson is charged with interfering with an arrest, a misdemeanor.
His brother Demonte Johnson is charged with resisting arrest and third-degree assault on a police officer, both misdemeanors. Requests for comment from Dorian Johnson’s attorneys were not immediately returned Thursday.
Johnson's arrest is automatic bait for the racist right. Even though it's minor criminal acts, to the racist right, it's like he robbed a bank and took hostages.
Dorian Johnson sues Ferguson. Conservative pounce on him.
As the racist right prays for more violent riots in Baltimore, let's take a ride on Interstate 70 and head back to St. Louis. Back to the city of Ferguson, MO. The city that sparked a few days of unrest because of the death of an unarmed man being gunned down by the law. The officer got off and it triggered riots in the city.
Dorian Johnson, the guy who claimed that Darren Wilson shot Michael Brown like an animal, is back in the news. Johnson gave his account of the shooting. He the junk food media, that Michael Brown was not a criminal. He got his share of death threats and slander by the racist right. To this day, those on the racist right will respond with their keyboard garbage slandering him and the Black community.
The "Hands Up Don't Shoot" narrative was sparked by his account. This narrative is used to this day despite the racist right's frustration with it and those who use it.
Johnson was there with his friend and he told the federal authorities that he and Michael Brown left a QuikTrip. As they were walking, they saw Wilson pull up in his police vehicle. Wilson ordered them to get on the street.
Darren Wilson is cleared of federal charges.
Johnson claimed that Wilson tried to pull Brown in his vehicle and there was a struggle. The firearm goes off. Brown was struck. Brown runs away and Wilson was shooting him after he exited his police vehicle.
The U.S. Justice Department determined Wilson didn't violate Michael Brown's civil rights. But it also noted that the city of Ferguson was using its police force as a money maker. It was wrongly targeting residents (mostly Black) at an unprecedented rate. This was the things that came after the grand jury's decision to find Wilson not liable.
Johnson's account didn't match up. Of course the Witness 40 claim that Brown charged Wilson like a football player was dismissed too. But these narratives are stuck in the minds of some and to this day will be aforementioned.
Johnson like many others was upset that the criminal justice system is stacked against Black America.
So in order to get his redemption ($$$$$$$), he files a federal lawsuit against Darren Wilson and the city of Ferguson for unlawful restraint.
I am assured that the racist right is already attacking him as I speak.
In the case of Freddie Gray and the six officers being charged. You hear the carnival barkers.
That annoying conservative agitator boldly claimed that Freddie Gray had heroin in his system. The worst cable news host to ever be on, says this "bombshell" could help the cops. Of course, he talks to an anonymous source who heard from another anonymous source and talked to the bail bondsman and not his probation officer. Of course a parole officer can't disclose an offender's information without a court order.
So I don't understand why that annoying conservative agitator would have a bondsman on instead of a probation officer!
A bondsman can say anything without being verified. Of course, that's the narrative of this piece of shit.
That old fart said that state prosecutor Marilyn Mosby might as well go riot with the people of Baltimore. Mosby's swift charges towards the six officers involved in the death of Freddie Gray dire the ire of the racist right. That old fart refers to Michael Brown as "the gentle giant" and Freddie Gray as "a known dope boy"
Alan Dershowitz, a Harvard professor who the racist right uses as their "token liberal" said that Mosby's charges are not going to fly because according to his oh-so great mind, the charges were too harsh.
Milwaukee County sheriff David Clarke, Jr. called Mosby a disgrace and the protesters a bunch of filthy scum. He said that it's a sad day for all in law enforcement to see a partisan charge cops for a criminal's own faults.
Each of these partisan hacks have the right to criticize.
We have a right to tune them out and keep the pressure on those who believe that Freddie Gray's death was due to police brutality. Regardless of the outcome, this will give those in law enforcement a sense of understanding the need to work as protectors and not enforcers. See if the law was more invested in working with the communities they serve, you wouldn't hear "FUCK THE COPS" from those already lost to the pipeline of society's ills.
