Mitch McConnell Tells Elizabeth Warren To Stop Talking About Coretta Scott King!

Nasty tension in the senate after Bitch McConnell told Elizabeth Warren to Shut Up!

Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is the Majority Leader and he's a rotten piece of shit. He's by far the corrupt lawmaker in Washington, DC. His wife Elaine Chao is now the fuhrer's choice for Transportation Secretary.

McConnell is the face of the establishment. He's dirty. And it's unfortunate that the disrespect towards women and Black people is a part of his tradition of being the biggest asshole leading our Senate.

Senate Republicans voted to silence Elizabeth Warren after she read from a letter by the widow of Martin Luther King that criticized the civil rights record of Trump's nominee for attorney general, Jeff Sessions.

The marathon debate on the confirmation of Sen. Sessions, which stretched overnight and was ongoing Wednesday, came to a temporary halt Tuesday night when Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) objected to a speech that the Massachusetts Democrat was giving.

Warren quoted from a letter that Coretta Scott King wrote in opposition to Sessions, an Alabama Republican, during his attempted confirmation for a federal judgeship 30 years ago.

The letter said that Sessions, who was then U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Alabama, had used the "the awesome power of his office to chill the free exercise of the vote by black citizens in the district he now seeks to serve as a federal judge."

McConnell and other Republicans said Warren violated Senate rules. The rule, No. 19, says senators cannot "directly or indirectly, by any form of words impute to another Senator or to other Senators any conduct or motive unworthy or unbecoming a Senator."

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (R-NY) objected to the ruling, calling it "selective enforcement" and citing previous apparent violations by Republicans that went unpunished.

At times in the past, Schumer said in a statement released by his office, Republican senators have accused their colleagues of telling "a flat-out lie," of "stirring up global hysteria to score political points" and of engaging in "bitter, vulgar, incoherent ramblings."

That last one came from Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AK), who last may denounced Schumer's predecessor, former Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) for what he called "cancerous leadership" designed to "protect his own sad, sorry legacy."

But Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT), insisted that Warren's actions had no place in the Senate.

"Even if what she said was true, it wasn't the right thing to do," Hatch said. "I've been appalled at the way Democrats have treated Jeff Sessions."

Progressives Warn Dems They Better Fight Or They Will Fall!

Sens. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) and Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) face scrutiny for supporting Ben Carson's bid to be HUD Secretary.

Democrats are starting to wobble on resistance. Protesters want unrepentant obstruction against the fuhrer Donald J. Trump and the Republicans. The spineless Democrats want to take cautious steps to fight the fuhrer.

You done fuck up now!

Republicans refuse to respect Barack Obama during his eight years as president.

Now the very same Republicans want protesters to respect Trump as their leader. I don't think so!

I will not give in this asshole. I refuse to support Trump and Republicans. If the Democratic Party decides go soft on Trump, they will face the wrath of progressives.

The Huffington Post and many outlets are calling out Democrats for going wobbly on Trump.

Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) are in the crosshairs of progressives. They were being hammered for supporting Ben Carson, a completely inept, failed presidential candidate. Carson is a former neurosurgeon who is tapped to be the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development.

Brown and Warren are up for reelection. Trump carried Ohio and Brown is easily targeted as the most vulnerable Democrat running.

John Glenn Passed Away!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The former was Port Columbus.

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

Golden Harvest!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

TREND HAS SLOWED

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Professional and business services payrolls rose 43,000.

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

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.

FLOTUS Stings Like A Bee...

The first lady comes out swinging against Donald Trump. He's facing a mountain of controversy after five women accused the Republican nominee of sexual harassment. It was revealed by The New York Times and the Republican nominee is on the defensive.

First Lady Michelle Obama delivered a powerful statement today going after Trump.

Speaking at a rally for Hillary Clinton in Manchester, New Hampshire, Obama lit into Trump over a video that surfaced last week in which he can be heard talking about being sexually aggressive with women.

"I can't believe I'm saying a candidate for president of the United States has bragged about sexually assaulting women," Obama said.

The speech was an uncharacteristically direct attack from the first lady, who said she eschewed her "normal campaign speech" because it would have been "dishonest and disingenuous to me to just move on to the next thing like this was all just a bad dream."

The first lady never addressed Trump by name, referring to him only as a "candidate." She began the speech by reflecting on what she called a "rough week in an already rough election."

The current first lady is lending her aid to the former first lady, Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.

Why would any woman support a man who says things like that? First Lady Michelle Obama lays into Donald Trump.

Trump's now infamous audio of him talking about sexually assaulting women isn't faring well with voters. Now it's likely Trump may lose in a landslide after several mishaps since the tape's release.

Obama urges supporters of Clinton to vote early. She says the time to be on the sidelines is over.

"This is not something that we can ignore," Obama added. "It's not something that we can just sweep under the rug as just another disturbing footnote in a sad election season."

Obama also cautioned against a "protest vote" and urged the supporters gathered to do "everything possible to elect Hillary Clinton."

"If you vote for someone other than Hillary ... you are helping to elect her opponent," Obama said.

"We need to recover from our shock and our depression," she added, referring to the sordid campaign developments, "and we need to do what women have always done in this country: we need to roll up our sleeves and get to work."

Many Republicans have denounced Trump and fear him on the ticket could hurt their chances at the election.

For his part, Trump struck back at Clinton and Republicans for writing him off. We'll cover this in a moment.

It's Bern'n!

Bernie Sanders urges support for former rival Hillary Clinton

Day one of the Democratic National Convention and much of the chaos exposed by the DNC chief has deflated some of the support from Hillary Clinton. She has to owe up to the skeptical progressives who felt that Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) got shafted by her.

Bernie Sanders, Michelle Obama, Elizabeth Warren, Cory Booker had an opportunity to give their support to Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine.

The standing ovation Bernie Sanders got shows that he's still a powerful force in the Democratic Party. He mentioned Clinton's name and it somewhat gets applause. He dumps on the media and the agitators hoping for a bloodbath in Philadelphia.

Still bitterness with the insurgent wing of the Democratic Party. Clinton and Kaine will have to find opportunity to make the case.

Bernie lays out the message. He warns Democrats (including Hillary Clinton and Pres. Barack Obama) to find their progressive roots or face a bitter defeat at the ballot box.

First Lady Michelle Obama won the night for the fact that she called for party unity and told a factual statement about the White House.

Conservatives seethe with rage over the true fact that the White House was built with slave blood.

Each of the speakers faced a set of boos from the Bernie Bros. The supporters of Sanders are frustrating but have a point. If the DNC chief Debbie Wasserman Schultz would have stayed neutral, you wouldn't see these concern trolls bemoaning the nomination of the first woman to ever clinch it.

So here's the videos. Love them or hate them.

Trump's Logo Is XXX!

Trump reveals his new logo and it's getting panned by the junk food media.

Now I am no fan of Donald Trump. I am no fan of his running mate, Indiana governor Mike Pence.

I believe these two will hurt our country. Donald Trump's chances of winning the presidency went to 49% while Hillary Clinton's chances slimmed to 51%.

So far, the odds of Donald Trump becoming the president is 44%. Its a significant rise from the previous encounters.

Trump introduces Pence today and reveals the new logo.

It's already getting slammed by pundits and mocked by those who believe the logo is sexually divisive.

Trump and Pence could make it to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Trump licks his chops after the Nice incident. He automatically blames President Barack Obama and Clinton for the crisis in France and crisis in the Middle East.

Trump also denounces the notion that he was wobbly on Pence. He said that Pence was his "first choice".

He also says that Hillary Clinton is a criminal for her emails. The FBI found no credible evidence of wrongdoing and yet it hasn't stopped Republicans from accusing her of murder.

The choice of Mike Pence is safe for conservatives. He's a nobody who could inspire Republicans to vote for a sketchy candidate.

Trump is declaring himself now the "Law and Order" candidate. He is using the "Southern Strategy" to win over a declining population of angry White men.

Trump's behavior is dangerous. The extremists here and abroad are hoping for Trump to win.

I really believe Trump could inflame racial tensions and spark terrorists attacks.

The logo is stupid but given how Donald Trump's never apologize or never fold, expect his loyal supporters to wear this logo like a badge of honor.

I will provide the full video of Trump introducing Pence in a few.

Obama Endorses Clinton!

Fired up and ready to go.

It's official President Barack Obama endorsed Hillary Clinton for president. After the brutal fight against Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) for the Democratic nomination, Clinton secured enough delegates to become the first woman in U.S. history to become the presumptive nominee of the party.

The president did a video for Clinton.



It also gave her boast in the polls. Right now, Clinton is leading Donald Trump by five points in most national polls. Although, it's still early, the slip-ups from Trump has given Clinton an advantage.

Also at the dinner, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) gave one of the most hardest attacks on Trump and her fellow senators who stall the president's nomination.

It's fueling speculation that Warren is being tapped to be the running mate. Warren stated that she's not interested....for now.

The president met with Sanders and had a formal discussion about his political future. Sanders for the most part said that he's staying in the race despite Clinton clinching the nomination.
