Vice President-elect Mike Pence was called out by the cast of Hamilton.
We're still in transition period. The controversial Christian extremist who happens to be the outgoing governor of Indiana is enjoying a night on the town. He goes to a hit Broadway show and the cast stops the script to address an issue that got the junk food media buzzing.
The cast of the hit musical Hamilton took a moment from performing to send a message to Vice President-elect Mike Pence. They called upon Pence to inform the controversial billionaire/racist/sexist/reality television star to work on behalf of all Americans.
Of course, President-elect Donald Trump was none too happy about it. So instead of ignoring the comments, he hopped on social media to bitch about it and demanded an apology.
The Theater must always be a safe and special place.The cast of Hamilton was very rude last night to a very good man, Mike Pence. Apologize!
Now the "no PC" crowd wants to boycott the musical. Pathetic.
In Trump's America, if you criticize him or his administration you're not making America great again.
Of course, Trump forgotten the Freedom of Speech works both ways.
Trump and his crew built their victory on attacking everything as "corrupt". For those who decide to scalp their tickets, go right ahead. It's nearly impossible to get a ticket to the Broadway show and I highly doubt a boycott against it will stop the show. There's boycotts against Starbucks, Pepsi and reality.
Besides, the cast was respectful towards him.
Fake news websites have contributed to a lot of misinformation about the election. It's not likely to stop anytime soon. Trust me, the grace period isn't happening with Trump. He will be attacked for everything regardless.
While they're boycotting reality, Trump finally settled the lawsuit. His defunct Trump University was a part of the many failures he's achieved. He gave a measly $25 million to settle the case against him.
Even though I haven't watch the news lately, I seen some of the social media reaction to it. They believe that Trump's ethics will come to question.
At Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, an anti-Trump protester was shoved from a stairwell to ground by a man at Ohio Union, the main lobby of the college/
The attack was caught on film and it went viral. The person, Shane Michael Stanton was booked in Franklin County lockup on aggravated assault. The victim Timothy Adams said that he wants the charges dropped.
Stanton is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
Trump thug has a day in court.
This is one of many incident post-election. The Southern Poverty Law Center and the Anti-Defamation League are watching for extremism.
The White extremists see the president-elect and his team as the "saviors" of White America.
The controversial billionaire/racist/sexist/reality television star and the Christian extremist Indiana governor will be President and Vice President of the United States on January 20th, 2017.
White people are now free to express themselves now that the controversial Republican billionaire/racist/reality television star won the election. They are free from "political correctness".
Since announcing his bid for president, the billionair/racist/reality star said that Mexican immigrants are "rapists" and "killers". He called a federal judge "unfair" because he has roots to Mexico. He still believes the five Black teens exonerated from rape charges are rapists and guilty as sin. He says minority-majority cities (i.e. Black communities) are "war zones" and "hell". He retweeted a fake statistic about Black on whatever crime. He proposes for a ban on all Muslims entering our country. That includes American born men and women who freely head to Mecca for a religious gathering. He mocked a man with disabilities. He said that he loves to grab women by the pussy because he rich and powerful. He has retweeted anti-semitic and racist tweets. He went onto kookspiracy shows like Alex Jones. He got his talking points from Sean "Softball" Hannity and the folks over at Fox News.
He picked an Indiana governor who supported discrimination towards LGBT citizens.
Yeah, he shocked the world by winning the presidency. Now he's going to know what it's like being the President of the United States. They're no breaks and no time off. It's 24/7 job.
It may get worse once he takes office.
Matter of fact, I expect he will get a lot of death threats and threats of assassination.
This election has made America more divided.
President Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and the reality television star soon the be president Donald Trump called for unity since the election ended. Those calls are being ignored.
Hate crimes and protests are on the rise.
It's mostly aimed at Blacks, Hispanics, Muslims and those in the LGBT community.
Even Stephen K. Bannon, the former president of Breitbart News is getting a spot in the White House. The transition team is proposing Bannon a role as chief strategist. Now people are demanding that Bannon doesn't get a spot.
Bannon proudly wears this alt-right label on his sleeve. He allowed his minion Milo Yiannopoulos attack Leslie Jones. The trolls who post in the comments sections (including this one) are unfiltered and unapologetic.
Until January 20th, I will not worry about the transition period or whomever the Republicans happen to line up for the leadership. I will not worry about the Democrats or their leaders.
For the time being, I will take a break from the heated rhetoric that comes from politics. I will not stand for the American flag. I will not pledge allegiance to the flag. I will take a knee when the National Anthem is on. I will oppose Republicans and their conservative allies for everything.
A reality television star who is a "blue collar billionaire" won the U.S. presidency. He defied all the rules of a typical election.
He managed to pull in the Blue Collar White Working Class Democrats. The Republicans pulled it off and smashed the establishment and world's pick Hillary Clinton.
I didn't bother watching the news or the gloating of Republicans and conservatives agitators.
I realized that racism is alive and well in the United States.
Blacks, Hispanics, women, LGBT, Muslims, immigrants, and well educated Americans beware, the silent majority won this. They allowed their hatred of change get in the way.
Progressives don't be discouraged. It's time to start creating a movement that will oppose Donald Trump regardless of what he does. We want him to fail.
HE WILL NOT BE MY PRESIDENT!
See if we're discouraged, we will lose. Don't look discourage. Dust yourself off and fight again.
Fight for change. Help build a stronger coalition that will defeat the corrupt junk food media, the agitators who divide us and politicians who don't support our cause.
Today is the beginning. For the next four or eight years, we will fight!
Three dangerous terrorists are off the streets. They wanted to attack a Kansas town because it has immigrants and Muslims.
Federal prosecutors plan to announce charges related to a planned attack on the Somali immigrant community in Kansas, the AP reports. A law enforcement official said Friday that federal prosecutors in Wichita, Kansas, are announcing the arrests of three men in connection with the plot. The official was not authorized to discuss an ongoing investigation by name and spoke on condition of anonymity. Acting US Attorney Tom Beal and FBI Special Agent Eric Jackson have scheduled a news conference late Friday in Wichita. The Justice Department's National Security Division created a new position a year ago to help coordinate investigations into violent homegrown extremism, like the one that resulted in the three arrests.
Countless people showed up to listen to Garden City Police Michael Utz explain the investigation about the planned attack.
A translator helped Somali community members address their concerns, but they were assured there is no longer any reason to be scared.
"I didn't sleep very well, but today when I saw the police and heard the police, all the people in the community coming here, I was feeling very, very happy," said Frah Farah, a community member. "I will sleep very well tonight."
Garden City Police say community members can help the community safe by reporting any suspicious activity.
Acting U.S. Attorney Tom Beall says Curtis Allen, 49, Gavin Wright, 51, and Patrick Stein were all charged with domestic terrorism.
Beall said the three were planning to bomb an apartment complex and mosque in Garden City occupied by a Muslim community of about 120 Somali refugees.
Beall said the men planned to carry out the attack on Nov. 9, the day after Election Day.
He said the men stockpiled a large cache of firearms, and ammunition.
Beall said the men planned to park vehicles full of explosives at all four corners of the Garden City apartment complex. The men said they wanted to "wake people up".
Beall said the men wrote a manifesto, which they wanted published after the bombing.
According to an affidavit, the were a part of a group called the Kansas Security Force and the Crusaders.
"These are militia groups whose members support and espouse sovereign citizen, anti-government, anti-Muslim, and anti-immigrant extremist beliefs," read the affidavit.
Beall said the men's arrest is a part of an eight month long investigation.
Eyewitness News first learned about the investigation when Liberal police and the FBI shutdown multiple streets in town on Tuesday.
All three men are currently in the Sedgwick County jail on one count of conspiring to use a weapon of mass destruction.
If convicted, all three could face life in prison.
The Garden City Mayor and Police Chief issued the following statements Friday evening:
"Our community is forever grateful for the protection provided to us every day, but especially today in learning of the thwarted attack on our community. I'm shocked, but at the same time extremely proud of and grateful for the efforts of local, state, and federal law enforcement. Today should also serve as a reminder that vigilance should be a common practice by all citizens. 'See something, say something' is a cause we should champion each day even in a rural community like Garden City. I would encourage anyone that sees something suspicious to call 911."
Mayor Chris Law
"The GCPD was aware of the investigation, and has cooperated with the FBI since the onset. We have been assured that all individuals involved are in custody, and that the safety of the community was ensured throughout the investigation. All inquiries about the investigation, arrest, and prosecution are referred to the US Attorney's Office and the FBI."
Chief Michael Utz
The growing tension within the Donald Trump campaign has conservatives screaming that the election is "rigged". His rhetoric has inspired extremism.
Before the debate, we're going to get this little bit of bad news out the way.
Hillary Clinton is struggling.
Democrats should not panic but they better get nervous with the latest round of polls. In a matchup in the five key swing states, Donald Trump is either tied or leading with Hillary Clinton.
Ohio, Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Iowa are very competitive right now and the convention bump that Clinton enjoyed for nearly two months is gone.
After she took time off the campaign trail for battling pneumonia and the "deplorables" comment, Trump found an edge in a race that should have been a wrap.
With the latest endorsement from bitter rival Ted Cruz, Trump got 90% of Republicans supporting him. At previous time, he was getting 70% of the Republican support.
Clinton better get her act together.
Now if you do the predictions, Trump now is at 52% chance of winning the presidential election and Clinton now has 47% and Gary Johnson has 1%. The Republicans are likely to keep control of the senate.
Ohio is going to Rob Portman, the incumbent who never lost an election. Ted Strickland was extremely slow to catch up to Portman. Portman has a 11-point advantage against the former Ohio governor. At one time, they were tied. Strickland's awkward comments and Portman's attacks on the candidate made him "slow to the table". This is similar to the Ohio governor's race when John Kasich beaten Ed Fitzgerald by 30 points. Kasich failed presidential campaign and refusal to support Trump may have backfired. Trump is doing at least three in national polls.
Florida is leaning towards Marco Rubio. Rubio who is a divisive figure in the Senate re-nig on his retirement. He decided to run for reelection and right now he's leading by four points in latest polls.
Pennsylvania is looking like it's going to Pat Toomey. Toomey who is widely disliked in the state is assured that he could make improvements if he gets reelected.
New Hampshire is still a toss up. I have Democrat Maggie Hassan tied with Republican senator Kelly Ayotte. Ayotte is looking a lot confident she could keep the seat.
Nevada is leaning Republican. The Rep. Joe Heck (R-NV) is leading against Democrat state assemblywoman Catherine Cortez Masto. Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV) the Minority Leader in the U.S. Senate is retiring after he had a serious eye injury. He handily beaten Sharon Angle in a match in 2010.
Again, the suspect is innocent until proven guilty. He will likely face state and federal charges since this happened in New York City. He will face a possibility of LIFE in the iron college or federal timeout. The DEATH CARD isn't off the table. He will face a judge in the coming week.
The intelligence agencies say that the biggest fear is the lone wolf.
People who are motivated by terrorism are usually getting their inspiration from the social media.
Intelligence agencies across the world are active 24/7. They have to be on this everyday.
It takes one terrorist to get it right. Stopping terrorism is an everyday thing. They can't stop all the threats in the world. That's one thing I often understand. They are on this everyday. It's an exhausting and thankless job. People willing to sacrifice their lives for their fellow American.
When the United States fired upon civilians and Syrian military officers, the world expressed rightfully outrage against this. The Americans deny that it was a targeted attack. Russia is leading the way in having a public condemnation of the U.S. in the reckless call.
This attack may have ended the truce between the Syrian military and the rebels.
Now the Islamic State and its predecessor al Qaeda are a boogie man in the United States. The junk food media has constantly promoted them. They're quickly turning up on social media. They are exposing legal loopholes in government in order to take advantage of the possibilities to commit mass murder upon this country.
Obviously seeing these videos could make someone become a terrorist.
Or perhaps the changes in demographics could be a motivating factor.
Would terrorism be inspired by the constant racism towards people of color?
Could it be inspired by the xenophobia of immigrants?
It is possibly the rise of Islamophobia that inspire terrorism?
Could homophobia and sexism inspire terrorism?
Could political motivations such as this election be an inspiration for terrorism? Terrorism isn't solely a Muslim or Brown person thing.
So the feds determined a 28 year old man from New Jersey was the alleged suspect in the bombings in New York City. The terrorist was just caught in New Jersey after a brief encounter with the law. He was shot and injured by the law. He will be treated for his injuries. He was allegedly sleeping inside an alley of a bar.
Ahmad Rahmi was fingered as the suspect in the bombing in the New York neighborhood of Chelsea.
He was a naturalized citizen who has ties to Afghanistan. The terrorist was spotted on cameras putting a book bag inside a train station terminal trash near Elizabeth, New Jersey.
The tips came in when they pinged the phone to the terrorist's father. The family was abruptly detained by that time.
At the point of escape, the terrorist was confronted by Linden, New Jersey police.
The terrorist put a bomb inside a dumpster and it went off. It injured over 29 people. No deaths were reported at this time. But the situation has driven terrorism back into the narrative.
The New York Daily News reports that allegedly five members of this terrorist's family were en route to John F. Kennedy International Airport. They were stopped in their tracks. The SUV the five were traveling in contained a stash of weapons. Of course, they have the right to carry firearms in New York state.
The terrorist was not on any terror watch lists or in any counterterrorism databases, Reuters reports. It is not known if he has a criminal record.
He was allegedly the "NICE GUY". He was a student at Middlesex Community College from 2010 to 2012 in New Jersey, but did not graduate, the school told NBC News. He studied criminal justice.
The terrorist worked with his family at a local chicken joint in Linden, New Jersey.
According to the Times, the terrorist eventually took over the day-to-day operations of his family’s restaurant.
There may be local ordinance laws towards carrying firearms in New York City.
The agitators in the junk food media have licked their chops once again.
Everyone once again will jump to conclusions about how this terrorist motivated his attack.
We'll hear the "radical Islam" nonsense again. Saying radical Islam doesn't make the threat go away.
If saying that makes you feel comfortable, more power to you. I mean I call it terrorism.
Mass shootings should be classified as terrorism.
The shiny coin is being chased again by the agitators. They will focus on this for the next two weeks and then we're back into another controversy in which Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton and President Barack Obama will be thrusted upon again.
Blaming someone other than the suspect is common. The partisan driven media agitators are likely the ones to continue this "divide". Republicans and Democrats do it. It's pathetic.
There's no such thing as unity in the United States. All these symbolic themes, all this talk about coming together and these holidays based off tragedy aren't helpful.
Martin Luther King Day, Independence Day, 9/11 tributes, Thanksgiving and Christmas are days where Americans are supposed to come together.
If you ask me about it, I would gladly tell you that unity is never gonna happen as long as we have a country ran by politicians, a polarizing junk food media and a closed mind.
Open minds tend to shape the world. It's an eternity to shape the world.
Who's the real threat to country?
Look in the mirror and point at yourself.
President Barack Obama addresses the United Nations and the public. He took a moment to address the feds involvement in the attacks in New York, New Jersey and the one in Minnesota.
A reminder to the folks who blame one group for the acts of one. Terrorism isn't exclusively Muslim. There are plenty of folks who willing to terrorize people and property for their twisted views. If we lump mass shootings, White extremism, gang violence, arson, illegal hacking and criminal hate crimes into terrorism, anyone who commits these acts of violence should be tried for the same criminal acts similar to international terrorism.
The destruction of religious institutions was always an act of terrorism. It went back to the years of the Klan burning down predominantly Black churches in the South.
Now the extremists are destroying mosques in the United States.
There have been numerous reports of extremists leaving burned q'urans, pig's blood, pig's heads and graffiti on the walls of mosques.
There was a fire at an Fort Pierce, Florida mosque overnight. This mosque was the place where the Pulse nightclub shooter once prayed.
The Islamic Center of Fort Pierce has images of the terrorist. The Florida state authorities and FBI are determined to capture this person.
In June, the Orlando community was hit by a terrorist who massacred 49 people inside a local gay nightclub. The terrorist was killed by the law after a gunfire exchange. To this day no laws were passed on handling mass shootings.
I will address the mass shooter in the usual blame game postings. After that, I will not mention the name of any mass shooter. I am done sending condolences to victims.
Ironic that on the 15th anniversary of the terrorist attack in 2001, we are no where close to being united. The cliches of "United We Stand" and "We Shall Overcome" are just words not speeches.
The hateful acts of this arsonist will not be tolerated. Hopefully justice will be served to this extremist.
Another figure in the conservative movement is gone.
Another conservative bigot passes away. I think for the better. They have nominated Donald Trump as their Republican nominee. A business/media mogul who has maintained this movement of extremists. She didn't live to see the day Donald Trump could either become our 45th President of The United States or another picture on the Washed Up Presidential Candidates Museum in Norton, Kansas.
A woman who embraced Trump's campaign died today at the age of 92. A few weeks after celebrating her birthday.
Phyllis Schlafly. an iconic conservative activist and business mogul passed away in St. Louis.
Schlafly once called feminist, "a bunch of bitter women seeking a constitutional cure for their personal problems". She believed women should find their greatest fulfillment at home with their family.
She famously opposed the Equal Rights Amendment. She was the founder of the Eagle Forum. The forum was staunchly anti-feminist, anti-gay, anti-immigrant, anti-Muslim and anti-Black.
She was a deeply polarizing figure. She would call for activism against the Equal Rights Amendment.
She would fail at achieving the goal. The Congress passed it and 35 of 38 states ratified the amendment.
She was survived by six children and many grandchildren.
Teen apparel store Abercrombie & Fitch will close 60 shops.
Abercrombie & Fitch is hanging by a thread. Ever since the Supreme Court laid the hammer on the company it's nosediving fast. The company lost a federal lawsuit issued by a woman who was fired out the cannon for wearing a hijab.
The decision now puts all retailers on notice about discriminating workers and potential hirers.
The teen themed retailer also tried to rebrand its image by rolling out its fall catalogue and trying make trendy discounts for the school year.
The company based out of New Albany, Ohio outside of Columbus has seen changes in the past three years. One being it's controversial CEO being fired out the cannon.
The former CEO Mike Jeffries and his boyfriend ruined the company. They instigated this policy where employees had to "look a certain way" in order to get a job at their stores. Often many people of color were rejected from the job because they didn't look the part. They would spend the company earning on lavish planes and boats. They would have the private plane and home decorated with hunky men wearing A&F clothes and cologne.
The company decided to close 60 stores across the U.S. and Canada. We don't know which ones would be affected
There's biggest obstacle is getting a former Sears Holding Group CEO to turn this company around.
Arthur Martinez, left Sears/Kmart after troubling years there. Now he's on board another sinking ship.
He's got two years to do something or he'll finding the cannon is ready to load him out too.
Sears has at leas than two years to turn around or face extinction. The company has struggled since the merger with Kmart. Now Kmart is on the verge of closing all their stores. Sears may soon follow.
A&F is still around but I'll give it at least five years before a new fad comes along and wipes this fad into the thrift stores.
He's gotta a way with words. It seems like pressure is mounting on The Voice to cannon fire Blake Shelton. The country music singer is under fire for his social media outbursts.
The celebrity agitator had posted some years ago some real ignorant shit.
Currently Shelton is dating bisexual pop singer, fellow co-host and celebrity agitator Gwen Stefani.
Shelton posted some ignorant shit between 2009-11 when he was just a country boy with a guitar.
He's now one of the highest paid entertainers in the junk food media.
The controversy started when Shelton's tweets which went under the radar were posted. Shelton didn't join The Voice until 2012.
Page Six obtained the cache of offensive remarks. Some were, "wish the towelhead in the next room would either shut up or learn some English so I would at least know what's he's planning to bomb."
Another goody, "standing in line at a coffee shop in LA talking with the man in front of me. He orders a skinny caramel latte. I couldn't tell he was gay!!"
Another good one, "flying home to sleep with two young blonde and black bitches". He was taking a shot at actress Dakota Fanning.
"Sooo....I just figure out a great excuse for my sick fantasy about Dakota Fanning. I thought she was Amanda Seyfried."
The Voice is aware of the controversy. They haven't made a decision yet, but expect Shelton to be on the bubble for the time being. The cannon fire could come as soon as next season.
I mean they got rid Cee-Lo Green after he was accused of slipping a roofie in a woman's drink. He avoided time in the iron college. He had to do PSA and community service.
Keep this going. Benghazi and Hillary Clinton's emails continue to be used by Republicans.
Desperation
Rep. Bob Goodlatte (R-VA) and Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) are calling for another investigation into Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton and her email server.
The FBI released a report about the emails. Some of the information is currently classified.
The State Department wants a chance to review notes of the FBI's probe of her email usage. House Republicans continue to waste taxpayer money on the email server and Benghazi .
Now there's talk that the Republicans are pressing for perjury charges against Clinton. Of course, Democrats are calling this latest obsession with the email server another distraction.
Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD) has slammed the Republicans for putting forth this. He said, Republicans are wasting more time chasing an already closed case. They plot would plot less than 90 days from the presidential election.
A reminder to you. Rep. Bob Goodlatte is one of the reasons for why the 9/11 First Responders Bill being delayed. He is a piece of shit lawmaker.
By the way, Donald Trump will get classified information from the U.S. Intelligence Agencies.
It's funny that he would get this stuff given that he's not fit to be president.
Just in: An active shooter at a Raleigh, North Carolina mall. No word on casualties but a large police and emergency presence is there in the area.
What could be the motivations of this terrorist?
Could the terrorist been inspired by the Islamic State?
Could the terrorist's motives been inspired by the death of Kouren Thomas?
Could the terrorist been inspired by a loss of job, relationship, or spurn by service?
Could the terrorist been a person with mental illness?
What could motivate a mass shooter?
Well I have an easy answer. Easy access to firearms. Congress continues to avoid passing comprehensive gun control laws that could prevent many of these tragedies to happen.
Sure you can't prevent ever mass shooting in the world. If we have the laws to stop these military style firearms from reaching the hands of domestic terrorists, then it could change the dynamic of mass shootings.
Anyway, what I know so far is that the Crabtree Valley Mall is on lockdown after were reports of an active shooter in the facility. Officials at the mall have gave no reason to the why the building was ordered a lockdown.
If the mass shooting involved more than five people, the junk food media will talk about it non-stop for the next two or three weeks. The agitators will come to Raleigh, North Carolina and post outside the mall or a designated area for the junk food media. They will hear from residents, victims and survivors of the tragedy.
You will hear comments about how this incident carries forth since the last incident. You will hear about other mass shootings that didn't make the news but finally got recognition.
Republican governor Pat McCrory and President Barack Obama will be notified of this. Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC) and Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) will respond. Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton will issue statements.
The blame game will once again begin.
If the shooter was a Muslim, you've hear cries of "Radical Islam" and President Barack Obama not doing anything to stop it. They will say that refugees from Syria and Iraq are the reasons to why this happened. They will blame the entire Muslim community for this. They will say that Muslims won't condemn terrorism. Conservative agitators and Donald Trump will lick their chops about this being a Muslim. They don't care if the terrorist is American born. As long as it's a Muslim, they will have their "I told you so moment".
If the shooter was a Black male, obviously Black Lives Matter and President Barack Obama will be blamed. Conservatives will say the terrorist had probably got riled up by cops killing unarmed Black people. They will play concern troll and bemoan about gun violence in the Black community or Black on whatever crime. Racial asshats Matt Drudge and Colin Flaherty will use this narrative to get unwanted attention to his blog or YouTube page. Softball Hannity will chant the repeated chants "Pigs in a blanket, fry 'em like bacon" or play the endless loop from a protest rally.
If the shooter was a Hispanic, obviously the cries of illegal immigration and closing the U.S.-Mexican border will be brought up. Conservatives will rehash the old canard that President Barack Obama is "soft on the border" and he will allow immigrants and refugees into the country in massive numbers. It will be once again played on Fox News or AM agitator programs about how Obama is responsible for the mass shooting since the terrorist is an illegal immigrant. If he was American born but had parents who were immigrants, you're going to hear or read nonsense from bigots who believe that if you're family came here illegally, they need to go back to their own country and take you along with them.
If the shooter was a White guy. Conservatives will claim he's a liberal Democrat. Obviously, they don't want to be blamed for every mass shooting in the country. But whenever it's revealed that the terrorist had some form of connection to Republican causes, the conservatives will deflect from the subject to say that Democrats are likely the ones who harbor racial angst towards people. They will rehash narratives about how the shooter was a registered Democrat by looking up old records. Some of the stuff is not confirmed or verified but once it hits Gateway Pundit, Breitbart News, InfoWars and GotNews, conservatives take it as fact.
Now if the victims or survivors speak to the junk food media, some will call them crisis actors. I don't understand why people are so driven to making accusations about people they don't even know personally. You don't know what happened! If a mass shooting occurred in your area, you're going to panic. You're going to have a moment that will be forever etched in memory. You might see traumatic things like a person dying right in front of you. Calling a victim a "crisis actor" is ridiculous. But given the freedom of speech and the constant cynicism of fellow Americans, expect this come forth.
Another thing that annoys me, is the price of fame. Obviously some will whip out their camera phones to record the events. Is it worth your life to do such dangerous things for click bait?
Some of the early videos show a bunch of shoppers exiting the mall en masse.
But it's obvious if this is either a mass shooting or a domestic shooting, the facts are clear, the shooter is a terrorist. It's not because of his skin color, nationality, religion or political motivations.
It's the fact that he would ruin the lives of others because of rejection. I don't care what his life was, he sure as hell didn't value the lives of others.
I blame Hillary Clinton for the death of my son. Pat Smith at the RNC. Smith relentless fight against Clinton now merits a frivolous lawsuit.
Larry Klayman is a vexatious lawyer who continues to agitate these baseless claims against the Clintons and Obamas. Klayman has filed a federal lawsuit against Hillary Clinton on behalf of the mother of Sean Smith and the father of Tyrone Woods.
Patricia Smith and Charles Woods blame Clinton and President Barack Obama for the deaths of their sons. They conclude that her email server contributed to the deaths.
The lawsuit contends that "the deaths of Sean Smith and Tyrone Woods were directly and proximately caused by the negligent and reckless actions" of Clinton, who was secretary of State at the time. It goes on to specifically fault Clinton's use of a private email server while at the State Department, saying any information received or sent through her personal account was "compromised" and ultimately helped facilitate the attack.
The suit was filed in federal court in Washington, D.C., on Monday.
Vexatious lawyer Larry Klayman
Smith and Woods are represented by attorney Larry Klayman, who has long targeted the Clintons, dating back to the administration of President Bill Clinton during the 1990s.
The lawsuit also alleges defamation by Clinton over her public statements about whether she'd attributed the attack to an anti-Muslim video in her discussions with family members.
Smith spoke at last month's Republican National Convention in Cleveland and delivered a blistering critique of Hillary Clinton's handling of Benghazi, where four Americans, including Sean Smith and Tyrone Woods, lost their lives.
"I blame Hillary Clinton personally for the death of my son," Patricia Smith said.
The right won't let this go.
In a statement provided to The New York Times and NBC News, Clinton campaign spokesman Nick Merrill said of the lawsuit: “While no one can imagine the pain of the families of the brave Americans we lost at Benghazi, there have been nine different investigations into this attack and none found any evidence whatsoever of any wrongdoing on the part of Hillary Clinton.”
While many agitators on Fox News trash Khizr Khan and Saddique Mateen, Smith and Woods made numerous appearances on the cable network. Fox News hasn't hosted Khan or Mateen on their programs.
Smith appeared more on Fox News to trash Clinton and Obama for their alleged roles in the 2012 Benghazi attack.
I will catch you up on the scandal that won't go away. On September 11, 2012, there was an attack on the Libyan U.S. Consulate and CIA-annex by terrorist under the guise of protests. The CIA gave information to President Barack Obama and his administration. They believed that protests sparked by a video. Susan Rice then U.N. Secretary appeared on GOP Sundays to blame the video for the attacks. It turned out that a group with associations to al Qaeda were responsible for the attack.
Ambassador Chris Stevens, Tyrone Woods, Glen Doherty and Sean Smith were killed and the terrorists were caught within the next year.
Blame Clinton not the terrorists.
Around that time, perennial loser Mitt Romney and his allies were licking their chops hoping to score political points on President Barack Obama being aloof on terrorism. At the third debate, Romney claimed Obama wasn't concerned about the Benghazi attack. Obama struck back and CNN Candy Crowley corrected Romney on the accusations of being a stand down order.
When the president won his reelection, Republicans would launch investigations into his role in the Benghazi attack. After the president and his top officials were cleared of any wrong-doing, Clinton would announce her run for president. Clinton was then subjected to many criticism and allegations.
When her emails being used on a personal server instead of a government server, Republicans seethed. The seething led to Republicans launched into many investigations and smear campaigns against Clinton.
In June, House Republicans issued a report from a two-year investigation into the Benghazi attacks that cited the Obama administration for security lapses but revealed nothing particularly new about Clinton's handling of the matter.
The following month, FBI Director James Comey sharply criticized Clinton's use of private email servers while at the State Department as "extremely careless," but argued that she should face no criminal charges, a recommendation Attorney General Loretta Lynch soon after adopted.
I believe this smells of desperation. Clinton is beating Donald Trump by almost double digits.
The federal government officials can't be sued for the deaths of workers who were willing to scarifice for their lives for their country.
The father of the Orlando mass shooter was at a Clinton rally.
Smells of desperation. The conservative outrage is once again in full stream over an unintentional moment in the campaign of Hillary Clinton. As passionate as these issues are, Republicans and their conservative allies will advocate distractions instead of solutions to the problem.
To blame others for the acts of one is usual of the agitators in the junk food media. They will find reason to fault the families of the victim or suspect.
This is the usual stuff that happens when Republicans are panicking and are losing hope in their chances at winning the U.S. presidency.
The Orlando massacre happened in June 2016. This was the deadliest mass shooting in American history. The terrorist who claimed that he was inspired by the Islamic State went into the Pulse Nightclub and lit the place up.
Over 49 people and the shooter were killed. The law and feds were stressed over how a man with a seemingly normal life became inspired to kill. He was an American born man who was a Muslim.
His attack on an Orlando nightclub hasn't moved the Congress to pass gun control laws. A few weeks later would be Dallas, Baton Rouge and numerous other mass shootings that haven't made the news.
We have become numb to mass shootings. We have become more cynical of Americans because of race, religion, sexuality, gender, nationality, economic and social class. We have become more outraged over things that happen in the news. And I believe that the news is driven by ratings and not partisan agendas.
Now the latest conservative outrage, the father of the terrorist attends a Clinton rally.
Cameras captured Seddique Mateen standing in the crowd. He later told a reporter for WPTV, a Palm Beach-based NBC affiliate, that he wanted to attend the rally as a member of the public and a Clinton supporter.
"Why should they be surprised? I love the United States, and I've been living here a long time," Mateen said.
The Clinton campaign said that the rally was a 3,000-person, open-door event for the public.
As Clinton speaks, he was spotted and photographed. Now the guilt by association soon follows Mateen and Clinton.
Mateen is calling for gun control and mental health screenings. His son was mentally disturbed and he said that he had no ties to the Islamic State.
Clinton met with victims' family and friends during a visit to Orlando in July.
In her speech Monday night, Clinton expressed support for the survivors of the attack and the loved ones of the 49 people who were killed.
"We can't ever let that kind of hatred and violence break the spirit and break the soul of any place in America," she said.
Now if you're devoted to smearing the Gold Star families like the Khans, complain about Seddique Mateen attending the Clinton rally, complain about Sybrina Fulton speaking at the DNC, having Christina Leinonen being called a "crisis actor" is typical of a Donald Trump and Mike Pence supporter.
So if you're Islamophobic, numb to gun violence in America, devoted blame others for the acts of one, listen to old fart Rush Limbaugh, watch "Softball Hannity" or read from internet creeper Matt Drudge, you're a Trump and Pence supporter.
Donald Trump is now engaged in a public feud with the family of an American soldier. The Republican nominee is giving his opponent Hillary Clinton an opening. Will this be the nail that deflates an almost indestructible campaign that refuses to back down?
Trump's facing a backlash after he criticized Khizr and Ghazala Khan. The Khan family criticized Donald Trump's Muslim and immigrant ban at the Democratic National Convention and it drew praise from the junk food media as being the most passionate speech of the night.
Their son Humayun Khan was U.S. army captain who died in 2004 after a vehicle packed with an improvised explosive device drove into the gate of his compound while he was inspecting soldiers on guard duty.
Trump getting hammered for smearing a fallen soldier.
The conservative agitators are starting to mount an offense against the family of a fallen U.S. Army soldier who was a practicing Muslim.
Fox News, the far right network is already accusing Khizr of being a supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood. Alt-right agitator Roger Stone is tossing to Fox News the allegations of Khizr being a supporter of "radical Islam" and "al-Qaeda" sleeper cell. He also disgraced their son.
Fox News got into a hissy fit over the fact the junk food media is covering the Khans but not Pat Smith, the mother of Sean Smith. Sean was one of the four victims in the 2012 Benghazi tragedy.
Conservatives have used this as a rope around the neck of President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton for years. They are more riled up over 9/11/12 than 9/11/01. They spent more time going through Benghazi than 9/11.
They were making a pathetic accusation saying that CNN, MSNBC, and the major three didn't cover Pat Smith. Of course, they didn't cover Pat's speech. They were busy covering Bill O'Reilly's ego.
The damage is done.
Republicans are already hammering Trump for wasting his time going after the Khans instead of Clinton.
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.
The truck that killed 84 innocent people. A terrorist managed to plow over people watching fireworks in Nice.
There was a tragic event in France. The world is mourning another terrorist attack on the people who were just celebrating French independence. The blame game here in the United States will once again be focused on Muslims, immigrants, Black or Brown men, and of course President Barack Obama.
Will the trolls call the victims crisis actors?
Will the Republicans and their conservative allies blame Obama for this?
Will the Republicans and their conservative allies say things like "radical Islam", "scourge" and "weak" when they describe this attack?
As the French were celebrating Bastille's Day, a terrorist managed to sneak pass the barricades to infiltrate the crowds who were watching fireworks in the city of Nice.
The terrorist was in a semi-truck and he was mowing through the crowds. He managed to cause carnage through a two mile stretch of road.
When the authorities tried to apprehend him, he got out his vehicle and started firing upon the residents and the law.
In this act of terrorism, we have over 80 people and rising.
Once again, the junk food media takes it's focus off the issues of violence in the United States to focus on the ongoing fight against terrorism.
The Islamic State and al-Qaeda haven't claimed responsibility for the attacks but on social media it's praised.
The terrorist was a 29 year old man who had minor run-ins with the law. Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlei was a delivery driver who at one point was delivering ice cream. That was a rouse to get through and mow over victims.
The terrorist was a nice guy who had a family.
There is some disturbing videos circulating through social media. The part where he mows over victims and the law shooting the terrorist.
BE WARNED THIS IS DISTURBING.
Okay, as usual Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton and President Barack Obama offer their thoughts and condolences to the victims. Two Americans were among the dead. A father and son from Austin, Texas were killed.
The terrorist's identification.
President Francois Hollande vows revenge against those involved. He will immediately order military and law enforcement go into the terrorist's home and obtain information and accomplices.
Of course, American conservatives are rehashing "radical Islam" and blaming the president for the attack. The president was in Washington at a town hall about gun violence and racial tensions. It being hosted by ABC when this jumped off.
They seriously believe that the president is weak on terrorism.
Donald Trump held back introducing Indiana governor Mike Pence held was pushed back. Pence declared he's not running for reelection at this time so he'll be the running mate for Trump.
World News Today send our condolences to the family of those lost in this senseless tragedy.
Freshman senator Joni Ernst of Iowa is being vetted by the Donald Trump presidential campaign.
The senator along with freshman senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas are in the running of being Trump's running mate.
Ernst went to Fox News to say that she's had a good conversation.
"I will continue to share my insights with Donald about the need to strengthen our economy, keep our nation safe, and ensure America is always a strong stabilizing force around the globe."
The Iowa senator who did a campaign video about castrating hogs is seriously being vetted. She hasn't accomplished much in one year of being a senator. She's kept a low key profile. I was expecting her to be a bombastic agitator like failed presidential candidates Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY).
Ernst is a retired National Guard lieutenant colonel and veteran of the Iraq war.
Ernst previously endorsed Rubio for president.
Trump is also heading to Indiana. He's talking with Governor Mike Pence. Pence who endorsed Cruz for president is making peace with Trump. Pence who is facing a reelection bid is trying to score some political points by embracing the Republicans presumptive nominee he distanced himself from earlier.
Trump needs a brain to move his body.
Pence faced a backlash after he passed a religious freedom bill that could discriminate against LGBT residents of Indiana. He looks the other way when Indiana mosques are firebombed and Rep. Andre Carson (D-IN) is being slandered by agitators for being a "ISIS-sympathizer".
Spokesman Marc Lotter said that Ernst and Pence will do all they can to help Trump win.
Also on the Trump veepstakes is Newt Gingrich, the former House Speaker who is a washed up politico. Gingrich ran for president in 2012. Chris Christie, the failed 2016 presidential candidate is in the running.
Sen. Bob Corker (R-TN), Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) are also on the list of potential Trump veeps.
One insurgent who isn't showing up for the Republican National Convention is Utah's Mia Love.
Love who is the first woman and African American elected in Utah. She said that she's going to focus on the residents of Utah and skip the convention. Love endorsed Rubio for president.
Avon Police and the mayor had to formally apologize to a man who traveled to the Cleveland area after they arrest him. They mistaken him as an Islamic State supporter. This arrest touched an international firestorm.
A hotel worker swatted a call about a man looking suspicious and pledging support to the Islamic State. The Avon Police come with high power firearms. The police immediately arrive at the hotel and order the man on the ground and search him for items.
Ahmed passed out after being detained by the law on a crank call.
Fairfield Inns and Suites, the Avon Police and the mayor had to formally apologize to the man after they detained him.
Fairfield Inns a division of Marriott Hotels, Inc hasn't commented on the worker, but it's assumed that the cannon is ready to fire after this came forth.
This was recorded on body camera.
Ahmed al-Menhali was detained by the law after the call. He would suffer from a fainting spell after they released him.
Of course, saying you support the Islamic State isn't illegal. Carrying out a potential terrorist plot is.
The United Arab Emirates quickly condemned the police and the hotel chain for rushing to judgement and basing their accusations on agitators in the media.
It's attracted the attention of #BlackLivesMatter, the Council of American Islamic Relations, Cop Block and the NAACP.
They are calling for heads to roll. After watching some of the videos on YouTube courtesy of WEWS 5 for the Cleveland/Akron/Canton area, I am certain that Avon will have a U.S. Justice Department investigation in the coming years.
Matter of fact, they want to make this a message about how quick law enforcement are when it comes to Blacks, Hispanics and Muslims. The officers are quick to load and shoot an unarmed citizen of color rather than use proper judgement.
Okay there were incidents in Florida, Texas, California and this one in Ohio this year. While conservatives are screaming "radical Islam" and "ISIS". their loyal base are attacking innocent men and women.
Why are the conservatives not condemning their own?
