The Definition Of Irony!

Boy saying to Fox News agitator "screw the president." Conservatives get outraged.

Hey conservatives, expect more.

You spent eight years demonizing Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Democrats, progressives and people of color. I think the most divisive person to ever be in the White House isn't Obama.

It's the guy who will take over for the next four years.

Expect more disrespect. Expect more anarchy!

They will never be peace as long as the fuhrer Donald J. Trump is in power.

Democrats better fight Trump. They better treat him like the Republicans treated Obama.

I warn Democrats that going "soft" isn't the way of winning. If Republicans complained and their allies amplified the message, they got their voters out. Let's fight dirty, rotten and nasty!

You liberal agitators better start acting like that old fart Rush Limbaugh and Sean "Softball" Hannity.

Rachel Maddow, Al Sharpton, Stephanie Miller, Joe Madison, Lawrence O'Donnell, Alan Colmes, Leslie Marshall, Thom Hartmann, Ed Schultz, Van Jones, Keith Olbermann, John Fugelsang, Chris Matthews, Chris Hayes, Joy Reid and Bill Press better stop being pacifists.

Get on the bullhorn and start rallying your base to these Republican town halls and events. Shout them down like the Tea Party did the Democratic lawmakers.

I can't wait til the lawmakers have their town halls. I can imagine that progressives will start a "revolution". I hope a Democratic lawmaker disrespect the fuhrer during his "Fate of the Union" speech.

And let's stop treating Fox News as a news channel. Fuck these assholes. The network is an orgy room of old white male perverts.

The softball, perverts like Bill O'Reilly and Tucker Carlson rant and rave for ratings. Why don't these so-called progressives start ranting and raving?

Fox News agitator Geoff Jenkins confronts a 11 year old boy. The boy expresses his frustrations with the system and he made his feelings known on live television.





Hey, Carter.

If you stay in college you could be a progressive agitator and have your show canceled or low rated.

If you drop out of college, you make money like Sean "Softball" Hannity, internet creeper Matt Drudge, white extremist twink Milo Yannopoulos and old fart Rush Limbaugh. They make money swaying their base with ignorance.

Progressives need less college and more blue collar in their ranks. I'm not saying drop out of college, but think like a blue collar. These blue collar people are reactionary and totally ignorant to facts.

Lie and lie until it actually becomes a campaign issue. The kookster Alex Jones and the fuhrer managed to get the birther issue rolling. Fox News and conservative blogs got the Muslim smears running. The junk food media is giving White extremism a new name. It's called the "alt-right" and they are riding this canard to mainstream.

And at 12pm on Friday, you will have Donald John Trump, Sr. and Michael Richard Pence will become your leaders. I offer only a few words for the two and their families.....

FUCK YOU!

I am aware of the Deplorable Ball and the lackluster Trump Inauguration Concerts. I am going to cover this in simple terms.

NOT HUGE!

More commentary on the boy saying "screw the president".

Greta Van Susteren Leans Forward!

Good evening folks. Greta Van Susteren heads to liberal MSNBC as their conservative voice.

Official. The spot once held by liberal agitator and civil rights leader Al Sharpton will now belong to a conservative agitator who is notorious for covering missing white girl stories.

Greta Van Susteren's return to cable news is in mid January. Her show For the Record will premiere on MSNBC at 6pm. Van Susteren will maintain her residence in Washington, DC and come as a direct competitor to her former Fox News allies.

Bloomberg News and MSNBC's show With All Due Respect is canceled.

CNN's The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer is still a ratings draw but its not a big success as Special Report on Fox.

Bret Baier dominates with Special Report and it's been awful hard for MSNBC and CNN to come into that area. With Al Sharpton demoted to the Sunday morning spot, the replacement for the 6pm spot was pretty difficult.

I mean the talk was Chris Hayes, Lawrence O'Donnell and Joy Reid were heading to that spot.

Still who knows? The chairs are being moved around at the three cable news channels.

I hope MSNBC becomes the flagship of all things anti-Trump. I mean Fox News did a good job on President Barack Obama and perennial failure Hillary Clinton. Fox enjoyed great ratings during Obama's eight years as president.

Van Susteren is a controversial figure. She is the ambulance chaser and "where the White ladies at?" agitator.

Van Susteren gain notoriety for being the woman who obsessed with the Natalee Holloway disappearance. Also during the 2008, 2012 and 2016 elections, Van Susteren was notorious for doing lap dances for the fuhrer Donald Trump and washed up politicos Mitt Romney and Sarah Palin.

She was on Fox News for nearly 15 years. She was the first conservative agitator to bounce off Fox News when Roger Ailes was fired out the cannon. It left her show On The Record in limbo.

Brit Hume picked up the pieces and then let the show die on its own. Tucker Carlson, the CEO of The Daily Caller and former knucklehead on the couch of Fox & Friends was promoted to take over her spot.

Now Carlson is promoted again to take over Megyn Kelly's spot. At 9pm, Tucker Carlson will be at the helm of a spot that long belonged to the most annoying conservative agitator in the junk food media.

Sean "Softball" Hannity will continue to be on at 10pm. Martha MacCallum will take a promotion to host her own show at 7pm.

It will be sort of difficult for me to scope her out. She's not as pretty as Megyn but she will be a draw for the die hard Trump minions who love see MacCallum sport off legs and skirts.

CNN's Erin Burnett and MSNBC's Chris Matthews are on the 7pm spot. The Fox 7pm spot was originally Shepard Smith's until he was promoted to be a breaking news host. Smith still is retaining his 3pm spot.

Cuck 'n Tuck!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The Fox Left The Hen House!

Megyn Kelly's departure from Fox News is big. It also leaves the network primetime line up full of old White and extremely conservative men hosting the programs.

Gabriel Sherman broke the news of a major shakeup over at Fox News. It appears that the biggest shakeup since 2013 was the one who involuntarily became a voice to women.

I peeped social media and found that 2017 is already off to an interesting start. It was confirmed that the primetime lineup will be shaken up over at Fox News. The 9pm spot held by Megyn Kelly will likely go back to Sean "Softball" Hannity.

Megyn Kelly heads to NBC and the news is HUGE.

NBC offered Kelly a big payday plus her own daytime show and discussion program, anchor an in-depth Sunday night news show and take regular part in the network's special political programming and other big event coverage.

Kelly had tangles with the fuhrer. Donald J. Trump and his minions have often attacked Kelly on her journalism and called her some nasty words.

Kelly who been with Fox News since 2005 slayed the beast. The beast was Roger Ailes. Kelly had felt betrayed after the network didn't defend her during the first Republican debate. Matter of fact, Bill O'Reilly, the softball were egging Trump on to attack Kelly.

Kelly was infamous for saying Santa Claus and Jesus were White and it's a fact.

Last year, she tangled with D.L. Hughley, Newt Gingrich and Michael Moore. Those made the news.

Softball Hannity who is the biggest Trump and Republican booster was pretty bitter after being demoted to the 10pm. The softball has a major feud with Kelly.

Ailes who was then president and CEO of Fox News and Fox Entertainment was fired out the cannon after Kelly came forth to admit that Ailes sexually harassed her. Her story helped former anchor Gretchen Carlson win her case against Fox News. She sued Ailes for sexuality harassment and wrongful termination. It opened the door to many others. Andrea Tantaros would come forth and sue Ailes as well.

Greta Van Susteren who held the 7pm spot abruptly left Fox News and is rumored for a deal over at MSNBC, a direct competitor to Fox News in the partisan rancor.

The Definition Of Irony: #HillaryForPrision!

Trump holds a sign.

Cue the irony.....

Notice that whoever made the hashtag #HillaryForPrision go viral may have set up those who followed the trend. Notice that the word in the hashtag, "Prision".

The word is spelled incorrectly. Some of the Trump supporters are saying that the social micro blog Twitter deliberately let the misspelling go viral in a suppression attempt.

Mind you that Donald Trump is embracing the folks who call Black people NIGGERS when they're not in the room. Mind you these are the folks who wanted to tear down walls in Germany and Western Europe but build walls between the U.S. and Mexico.

These are the people who believe that if Hillary Clinton wins a historical victory, it's going to be a "constitutional crisis."

These are the people who claim the junk food media is blacking out the email scandal when its been covered since Friday.

The Trump campaign says that he can change the toxic environment n Washington. Republicans have opposed about 85% of President Barack Obama's agenda. Trump's own campaign implanted the narrative that the junk food media isn't fair and the government is corrupt.

If he becomes the president, Trump will face resistance from Democrats the moment he is sworn to office.

This FBI memo released by James Comey has became catnip to Donald Trump and his Republican (alt-right) allies.

In the letter, Comey said that there is something that may have been on the laptop of ex-lawmaker Anthony Weiner who is the estranged husband of Huma Abedin, a top aide to Hillary Clinton.

Clinton bucked the FBI director for bringing this late into the election season. She said that Comey is not concerned about Wikileaks hacking into John Podesta's emails. The Clinton campaign also said that the Republicans are desperate to win by any means.

The Reckoning Pt. 2 Debate @ Farmville!

The running mates go at it.

Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA) and Republican governor of Indiana Mike Pence are going at it tonight.

The two will be appearing at Longwood University tonight to duke it out. It's not going to be the monumental 1st type of debate but it's going to be interesting.

Kaine, a former governor and DNC chairman verus Pence, a former talk radio host, congressman and majority whip. Both are relatively unknown to the general public. Only within their states, Kaine and Pence will be the heroes.

Who won this debate?

Mike Pence
Tim Kaine
Sage Quotes


As you know this will be the only debate for the vice presidential nominees. The two will have to defend their running mate.

Pence will single out the policies of President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton's handling of state secrets. He will also address the controversy with Donald Trump's tax returns.

Kaine will address the Trump tax returns. He will address the vile language of Trump. He will try to defend Clinton's emails and The Clinton Foundation. He will also try to defend Obama's legacy.

Feds Releases Fatal Cop Bucking Of Jeremy Mardis!

The state and federal prosecutors release the graphic video of police shooting an unarmed man and his child. Jeremy Mardis was hit 18 times by the law.

BE WARNED THE VIDEO CONTAINS GRAPHIC IMAGES.

TAKE DISCRETION IN VIEWING THIS VIDEO.

Two former Marksville, Louisiana police officers are facing murder charges after they fired upon a man's truck killing a six year old boy inside. Norris Greenhouse, Jr. and Derrick Stafford are going to face LIFE or the DEATH card if found guilty in this murder.

They are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Jeremy Mardis was the young life lost to this senseless act of violence. His father Chris Few was being chased by the law for an outstanding warrant. It turns out that Few wasn't wanted for skipping court.

Few was upset with his girlfriend at the time and probably didn't notice the lights. Well Greenhouse and Stafford were in pursuit of Few and cornered him in a cul-de-sac.

At some point, the two called for backup and one of the officers turned on his body camera.
Two former cops are held on a $1 million get out of jail free card.
For some unknown reason, the two fired upon 18 shots into Few's vehicle.

Chris Few was struck in the head and chest. He had his hands in the air when he was being detained.

Jeremy was struck five times in the head and chest. He would die immediately of the injuries.

The video being shown is the aftermath of the situation. Greenhouse, 23 and Stafford, 32, were officers with Marksville. Greenhouse served as a secondary reserve for Alexandria.

Stafford was a marshal and police lieutenant for the Marksville police for eight years.

They were Black cops and the victims were White.

The Reckoning Pt. 1: Debate @ Hofstra!

Debate night.

Well the day of reckoning is here!

The first debate is on tonight and it's going to be a ratings pulls. All the major networks with the exception of The CW will run the debate at 9pm (EST). The debate will be moderated by NBC Nightly News host Lester Holt.

Holt will have the most challenge job in his career. He will be moderating Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. It's going to be an interesting event to say at least.

An estimated 110 million people will watch this tonight.

The Big Debate: Who Wins?

Donald Trump
Hillary Clinton
Poll Maker

The debate will be at Hofstra University. The previous host pussied out sparking outrage among the students, facility and the state party chairs.

Wright State University was the original host of the debate. They backed out when it became a fiscal issue. Of course, I drive for Uber and I would love to have an opportunity to have made some extra money on the side driving people to the Nutter Center.

Wright State will likely be out the running in 2020 and future presidential debates.

Anyway, the whole debate will be something to see.

Many expect Hillary Clinton will be prepared. Some will expect Donald Trump to be on his toes.

Updates will begin at 9pm (EST)/6pm (PST).

I will give my best take on this debate.

The candidates arrive at the event. Trump in a business suit and Clinton in a red pantsuit. Bill Clinton and Melania Trump shake hands.

Lester Holt introduces the candidates. The moderator has a big challenge ahead.

Blame Game: Nathan DeSai!

Terrorist shot innocent victims before he was put down by the Houston Metro Police. The terrorist was a disgruntled lawyer.
If we consider mass shootings an act of terrorism, maybe the inept Republican-controlled Congress could pass legislation to handle this.

They will not pass anything until a new president is in office. Republicans hope Donald Trump will become the next president. He will do everything if not anything to win. He will not control this. He signals more guns and more freedom for purchasing high powered firearms.

I refuse to say this terrorist name! This terrorist doesn't deserve any attention.

Fresh off the heels of Saturday's mass shooting, here's another one that will get little or no attention. A terrorist disgruntled with his job got a firearm and started bucking people.

The missing element to this story, he was not a Black man as the junk food media reported it was a White man and he wore Nazi paraphernalia.

This man was identified by Houston officials as the gunman, died after a shootout with police. He was wearing an old German military uniform adorned with Swastikas, KPRC-TV reports.

The gunfire broke out about 6:30 a.m. local time outside of Randall’s grocery store in the southwest area of the city. The attack then continued at the Weslayan Plaza strip mall.

Authorities do not believe there are any other suspects in the attack and a motive has not yet been determined. The shooting lasted for 20 minutes, according to Assistant Chief Richard Mann. Mann added that the injuries range from minor injuries to “more serious” wounds.

Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner said that the gunman “appeared to be a disgruntled lawyer who took out his anger and frustration on individuals.”

The Houston PD said at a press conference just after the attack that the gunman was a disgruntled lawyer who had “issues concerning firm.” According to Yelp, the terrorist was a lawyer with Kenneth McDaniel at McDaniel & DeSai LLP. This terrorist specialized in family law and criminal cases, felonies and misdemeanors.

The terrorist father told Click 2 Houston that his son’s new venture wasn’t going well saying, “He was worried … because his law practice was not running good, so he (was) worried about this all the time.”

The victims ranged from minor to critical injuries.

Trump Is Rising!

The blowhard is catching up in national polls.

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.

Arianna Huffington Abandons Ship!

Arianna Huffington steps down from The Huffington Post.

Arianna Huffington is a Greek-American socialite, blogger, and business woman. She along with the late Andrew Breitbart, Kenneth Lerer and Jonah Peretti founded the news agitation blog The Huffington Post. She created the blog in 2005 and to this day it's by far one of the most successful blogs in America. It is one of the most popular progressive blogs. It competes with the conservative news agitation website The Drudge Report.

The Huffington Post is part by AOL Media. It's a subsidiary of Verizon Media Group.

Reports that Huffington is to step down as CEO of the Huffington Post are buzzing around the social media. She announced that she will start Thrive Global and focus on health and wellness.

Huffington denies internal conflict was a reason for her departure.

Huffington was born Ariadne-Anna Stasinopoulou. She had once being married to former lawmaker by the name of Michael Huffington, a staunch Republican who would come out as bisexual.

Huffington was a big time conservative during the 1990s. She even was tempted to run for governor of California after Gray Davis faced a recall.  She would throw her support to actor Arnold Schwarzenegger who successfully became the governor of the state.

During the George W. Bush administration, the media mogul decided to switch it up. She has become a fierce critics of Republicans and recent stalwart Donald Trump.

She wrote her letter of resignation today.

For the past 11 years, The Huffington Post has been at the center of my life, and frankly I thought it would be my last act. What we have built together has exceeded my wildest expectations. Never did I imagine when there were just five of us working out of my home office in L.A. that we'd grow HuffPost to be one of the most visited news sites in the world with editions in (soon-to-be) 16 countries and a Pulitzer Prize-winning global leader in news and politics, solutions journalism and wellness.

The Huffington Post is a critical pillar of our strategy and is only becoming more important with our recent moves into AR/VR with RYOT. As the connected world expands and the global need for news and information expands, The Huffington Post is well positioned to be a leader for decades to come.

Huffington said that she's been thinking about transitioning for a long time. She denies that Verizon pushed her out. Verizon is reportedly buying Yahoo! and the creative direction. A source suggested to Recode that shifting power dynamics as a result of the dealt prompted the departure.

Did you know that Arianna Huffington played a role on The Cleveland Show. She played Arianna the Bear, the wife of Tim the Bear, one of Cleveland's friends. Seth MacFarlane and Mike Henry created a spin-off to Family Guy that focused on Cleveland Brown, the long striving Black friend of Peter Griffin.

Teletrumper!

Donald Trump used to mock President Barack Obama for using a teleprompter. Now struggling in the polls, guess Trump decided to use one to deliver an economic speech.

Already facing a mountain of criticism, the Trump campaign decided to "reset" the campaign.

Donald Trump delivers his economic speech in Detroit and guess what he used!

The teleprompter. That device that conservatives were complaining about when President Barack Obama was using it during his prepared speeches. To this day, they still complain about the president using them. Last month, The Drudge Report splashed on its website the president stuttering during his concerns about Trump.

They were saying without the teleprompter, Obama would be a hot mess.


Anyway, Trump gives out his "low energy" speech on how to improve the economy by offering the same Republican talking points. He also took aim at Hillary Clinton for being a part of "yesterday".

Trump decided to make Detroit the fault of Obama and Clinton. He also pointed out his proposals should be able to bring people into the workforce and out of food stamps.

Now Trump's proposals include a lowering of tax rate from 39.6 percent to 25 percent and creating two other rates of 10 percent and 10 percent. Pretty much trickle down economics.

He will used the Paul Ryan's austerity budget as kickstart.

Trump had endorsed Ryan for his bitter primary fight.

His speech was interrupted by protesters. Trump didn't get too angry at them. He stuck to the script.



Clinton hits him back. She first points out the Trump economic team is mostly old White men. She also said that the Trump plan is the same recycled garbage that perennial loser Mitt Romney tried to sell to the public.

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.

Bernie Sanders



Elizabeth Warren



Cory Booker



Michelle Obama



Al Franken & Sarah Silverman





Demi Lovato



Protesters





Debbie Wasserman Schultz

Raising Kaine!

It's raining Kaine!


Hillary Clinton's running mate is Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA). He was the former governor of Virginia and Democratic Party chairman. He was formerly the mayor of Richmond.

"I'm thrilled to share this news: I've chosen Tim Kaine as my running mate," Clinton said to the email. "Tim is a lifelong fighter for progressive causes and one of the most qualified vice presidential candidates in our nation's history."

She added, "I've have the privilege of seeing two presidents and two vice presidents up close. I want a vice president who can be my partner in bringing this country together. I want someone who will be able to give me their best advice, look me in the eye, and tell me they disagree with me when they do," said Clinton.

Clinton's pick will rile up liberals. They were hoping that her pick would be more progressive.

Alas it's not. Many progressives are pissed that Clinton would pick a candidate who is in favor of deregulating the banks.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) was a formidable opponent. He forced Clinton to the left on many issues that the base supports. Kaine isn't 100% progressive. He's about 75% at best on the progressive level.

Sanders said back in May.

"I would hope, if I am not the nominee, that the vice-presidential candidate will not be from Wall Street, will be somebody who has a history of standing up and fighting for working families, taking on the drug companies whose greed is doing so much harm, taking on Wall Street, taking on corporate America, and fighting for a government that works for all of us, not just the 1%."

He will bring his A-game to a campaign that needs some major boost. Clinton's pick will be the attack dog against Donald Trump and his running mate Mike Pence.

Gretchen Carlson: Fox News Is Not Only "Sexist" But It Is GOP Propaganda!

Gretchen Carlson sues the Fox.

Looks like Gretchen Carlson is no longer on the right leaning network. Fox News let her go over the past two weeks. It seems to be some bad blood on her way out.

Carlson filed a federal lawsuit against Fox News and FOX Entertainment CEO Roger Ailes alleging wrongful termination, hostile work environment and sexual harassment.

The news is a bombshell. After all, the Fox News Channel is obsessed with Bill Clinton's alleged affairs and it's no surprise that Roger Ailes has a thing for blonde women.

Jon Stewart called it right. Carlson was playing dumb to keep her job.



Carlson who was the host of The Real Story at 2pm was absent for the last few weeks and it started to grab the attention of the junk food media. I mean she held that spot for two years after leaving the couch.

She was the co-host of Fox & Friends from 2006 to 2013 with those two pinheads Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmeade. She got the gig after E.D. Hill was booted off the couch. Carlson was soon replaced with Elisabeth Hasselbeck who took over in 2013 and left the network in 2015.

Ainsley Earhardt is the current blonde on the couch.

In the lawsuit, Carlson says that her 11 years on the network were miserable. She was getting condescending treatment from Ailes after she complained about the antics behind the camera.

She says that Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmeade just couldn't keep their mouths closed when they saw a female anchor walking around in a tight mini skirt. They basically were treating female guests and co-hosts like sluts.

Ailes basically shrugged it off and offered a night on him. She said that Ailes wanted to have a sexaul relationship with her after she complained about them pinheads.

I've noticed this sometime ago when I did have cable. Doocy did act like an ass around Carlson.

In the lawsuit, she said that Doocy engaged in a "pattern and practice of severe and pervasive sexual harassment" that included "mocking her during commercial breaks, shunning off air, refusing to engage with her on air, belittling her contributions to the show."
Damn, it's getting ugly over at The Avenue of Americas.
It might also be noted that Alisyn Camerota left the network to join CNN. It might also be noted that Elisabeth Hasselbeck said that she rather spend time with her family. Did they feel some type of way too?

Wondering how Megyn Kelly got her primetime gig?

Did she have to do something to get something?

Oh, the gossip around the tree is Roger Ailes. It was said that Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is sitting on a bombshell story about Roger Ailes and Bill O'Reilly. He bailed on Fox News during his feud with Kelly. Trump had talked to Ailes and Rupert Murdoch in the past and they seem to be making nice for the time being.

It's also noted that Ed Henry is probably off Fox News too. He was caught in his own sexual harassment scandal. Henry was dogging on Hillary Clinton about them goddamn emails.

Fox is running this narrative that Hillary Clinton got away with murder.....by not being indicted on misuse of emails. Republicans have now called for investigations into the FBI and their handling of the case.

HLN Loses Nancy Grace!

Nancy Grace announces her departure from HLN.

The courtroom agitator who has hosted her program for nearly 13 years is about to say goodbye to the network.

Nancy Grace announced that she will leave HLN in October. She had gotten her start on CourtTV before striking it on CNN and then its sister network HLN.

She told the executives that her departure will be on October 13. She will focus on digital content programming.

"This fall, I'll be leaving HLN, my longtime TV home, with a full heart and endless gratitude," Grace said in a statement Thursday. "The network has been my extended family for nearly a dozen years, and I am proud of the amazing work we've produced together."

The host of one of HLN's most popular shows went on to say, "We created an unparalleled platform that gave crime victims a voice and succeeded in helping to find missing people and spotlight unsolved homicides."

Grace, a native of Macon, Georgia, came to her career via a personal tragedy.

She was only 19 when her then-fiance, Keith Griffin, was murdered. After his death, she abandoned her studies in Shakespearean literature to seek a career in law.

After graduating from Mercer Law School and completing an LLM in constitutional and criminal law at New York University, Grace became a special prosecutor for the Fulton County District Attorney's Office in Atlanta.

Her reputation handling high-profile cases in Atlanta courts caught the attention of Court TV executives, who put her on air and eventually created "Cochran and Grace," which she co-hosted with Johnnie Cochran of O.J. Simpson trial fame.

She became known as a tough-as-nails advocate for crime victims on her eponymous nightly show.

Her coverage of the Casey Anthony trial, in which Anthony was accused and eventually acquitted of the murder of her young daughter Caylee Anthony, helped make Grace even more of a household name.

The fame also made her a target for parody.

Grace told CNN in 2009 that she didn't mind the "Saturday Night Live" sketches or You Tube videos that poked fun at her.

"It's very flattering that they would think enough to make fun of me," she said. "I want [rapper] Eminem to make fun of me, but I don't think it would be very nice."

Grace, who will leave in the fall when her contract ends, did not share specifics about her next venture. She did say, "I will continue my fight for justice across a variety of traditional and new media, where victims' voices can reach an entirely engaged audience."

In an internal note to employees, CNN executive vice president Ken Jautz celebrated Grace's time at HLN, CNN's sister network.

"Nancy has worked tirelessly on behalf of the missing and exploited for more than a decade on HLN," he wrote. "She gave a voice to the voiceless and we are extremely grateful for her contributions to the network. During her remarkable career at HLN, she led the coverage of two of this century's most talked about and infamous trials, Casey Anthony and Jodi Arias.

Equally Hated!

Donald Trump is leading in some polls against Hillary Clinton. The public equally hates them and Bernie Sanders.

In hypothetical polling, Donald Trump leads Hillary Clinton by five points. The Republicans are seething with joy knowing that Clinton's prolong fight with Bernie Sanders is hurting her in the general. Sanders leads Trump by a seven points in a hypothetical poll.

Trump also got some praise for his very mention of possible Supreme Court nominees if he becomes the president. Trump's picks for the court already cause a great deal of controversy.

The Republicans have ignored their constitutional duties to confirm President Barack Obama's nominee for the Supreme Court Merrick Garland. The death of conservative justice Antonin Scalia gave the Republicans more enthusiasm to winning. They prolong the nomination of Gerrick because they hate the fact that Obama is still in office. They fear that if Obama gets his pick confirmed or Clinton wins, conservatism will lose. The Democrats warn Republicans if Trump wins, they will do him like they've done Obama.

Republicans know that the changing demographics aren't in their favor. So in order to gain a little bit of support, they'll rehash old news to stop Clinton. The allegations thrown at Clinton have started to stick. Matter of fact, Trump's "crooked Hillary" name is now a Republican talking point.

Sanders is also getting flack for having no control over his supporters. Many in the junk food media claim that he's acting like a sore loser. Conservative agitators (i.e.The Drudgelist, Old fart Rush Limbaugh and Softball Hannity) are spewing kookspiracies theories about Clinton "stealing" the nomination from Sanders.

Sanders's supporters are starting to get riled up. Now you're hearing that they'll vote for Trump over Clinton. Of course, liberals who support a sexist, Islamophobic, narcissist asshole are not really supporters of Sandres. They're just trolls who want to create chaos in the Democratic Party.

If you agree that Muslims should be banned from the United States and you're a Bernie Sanders supporter, then you're head is screwed on wrong.

If you agree that illegal immigrants are bringing in drugs, crime, disease and you're a Bernie Sanders supporter, then you're head is screwed on wrong.

As you know, Bernie Sanders joins Clinton and Trump as heavily disliked. His supporters kind of pissed off the Democratic Party. And with good reason. In their minds, they believe that Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) was rigging the primary for Clinton.
Bernie Sanders's negatives are going up.
I agree that the congresswoman is inept. For the sake of the party, she should bow out.

Sanders's problem is the informed public. Most of the public isn't familiar with socialism and they aren't familiar with him. They know enough about Trump and Clinton and they're not really inspired by their messages.

Although Trump gets most of the attention, Republicans seriously believe that the junk food media is in the tank for Hillary Clinton.

Softball Hannity is feeding Trump these allegations of Bill Clinton cheating in another desperate attempt to distract the public from Trump's inept responses to policies. Softball Hannity is a huge concern troll and the most annoying person to ever have a radio or television show. He ignores the allegations of cheating from Trump and hasn't asked the Republican about how to fix the economy or bring back jobs. All Trump's stated so far is platitudes and Republicans are soaking it up. He stuck on this notion that being politically incorrect is the key to winning elections.

Republicans have no real ideas. The Republicans in Congress wasted two session of Congress demonizing Clinton over Benghazi, Obama over the Affordable Care Act, his executive orders, the IRS, the TSA, unions, Planned Parenthood, NPR, and Facebook.

Republicans in control of Congress enacted only 14% of the laws. The current job approval of Congress is 9% job approval. That's terrible and I believe that if Clinton, Sanders or Trump become the 45th President of the United States, they will have the most unproductive Congress ever.

My Honest Take On The Uber Experience!

Being a driver for Uber is fun but it comes with a price.

For the last nine weeks, I've started driving for Uber. I wanted to participate in an experience that would give me an opportunity to make money and interact with people. At first, I loved the opportunity to meet interesting people, but now I am starting to find concern with it.

Uber is the people-friendly ride share service which allows "riders" to get picked up by "partners" willing to help them reach their destination. The flat rate, plus miles and time spent inside the vehicle calculates the fare. During a peak time, Uber advocates a surge rating. The surge rating makes "partners" earn a little extra on nights where the demand for riders is high and the need is great.

The riders uses their smartphone to activate the app. The app gives a description of the "partner" his vehicle and the average rating. The "partner" is called upon if the "rider" selects the option to arrange a pickup. The "partner" is then pinged by the app to accept the pickup. The "partner" has an approximate time to pickup the "rider". Once the "partner" arrives at the pickup, the "rider" enters the vehicle and the "partner" activates the fare.

Once the "partner" makes it to the final destination, the "partner" ends the trip. Once the trip is over, the "rider" will have an option to rate the "partner" if they enjoyed the experience or not. The "partner" can also rate the "rider" if the experience didn't live up to expectations as well.

I have covered over 400 trips in the nine weeks of being a partner with Uber. Out of them 400 trips, I can say that some of the experiences aren't as pleasant.

Uber and rival Lyft are beating the taxi companies in rates. Since Uber and Lyft came to Dayton, Ohio, it's quickly pickup steam around the University of Dayton, Sinclair Community College and Wright State University.

When I pickup the "riders", I offer them water, fruit snacks and crackers. I want to make them feel comfortable when they ride with me. I often ask them if they have a preferred route to their final destination.

I've picked up "riders" from the airport, the mall, the bars and restaurants. I've taken them home, to their jobs and their friends homes. I've also pickup riders who weren't the actual pickup.

I've picked up usually people who are intoxicated. I've picked up over 6 or more passengers in a five seated vehicle. I've taken people to other destinations that aren't the final stop. And I've picked up people from their destinations without them activating their app.

I've picked up people who talked inappropriately. Sometimes, I've said a few inappropriate things as well. I will admit this, I did have a "crush" on one of the "riders". All in the way of relating to the "riders".

But now, I am seeing the negatives of being an Uber driver. Only a few weeks ago, I picked up a rider who masturbated inside my vehicle. I picked up a bachelor's party and the groom ripped off my door handle. I picked up a group of women and one vomited inside the vehicle.
Uber is the ridesharing service.
Not to mention the wear and tear of your vehicle. You're driving your vehicle and it's putting a whole lot of miles on your car. The amount of fuel being placed in your car also adds up.

Even when you are on a pickup, you might find a law enforcement bothering you as you are doing your job.

Since Uber doesn't consider you an employee, you're responsible for the taxes. You're a small business and you have to file a 1099 on your IRS tax form. They petition for Uber to have all "partners" as employees instead of contractors.

Each of these experiences might end my time driving for Uber and eventually Lyft. But I am certain that my opportunities to improve will overcome the negative.

Uber's ratings are determined by how the experience was. By average a "partner" has to at least have a rating between 4.8 and 4.9. Only a few can pass the threshold of 4.95 to a perfect 5.

I am concerned that no matter how good I've done, the "riders" will rate me poor. It's almost discouraging. If you fall behind 4.6 in your ratings, you could have your account deactivated.

Many "partners" are starting to find some discouragement in the way Uber handles things.

I've read some of the articles from current and former Uber drivers and I am kind of on the fence of how I might continue driving. I know that nobody is perfect. But I am determined to do all that I can to be the best.

If I can't be the best, then there's no purpose in being an Uber driver.

Anyway, I want to get a rant off in my random musings.

Clinton Pulls A Win In The Bluegrass!

A small victory is a still a victory!

The Kentucky Democratic primary goes to the former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. She ended up beating Bernie Sanders in a nailbiter.

If Clinton would have face another defeat, it would have made the race more complicated.

Sanders didn't pour a lot of money into this race. He figured that her comments about coal country would have doomed her chances at winning the state.

Given the state elected a right wing bigot governor named Matt Bevin and the Kim Davis fiasco, Democrats would have not supported either Clinton or Sanders.

The Sanders campaign was hoping for an upset. Hopefully the Oregon primary could be a victory for Sanders.

Clinton has also invested time and money in the bluegrass state in an attempt to blunt Sanders' recent surge of primary victories and strengthen her position in the general election if she's nominated. Her 300-strong lead in pledged delegates, along with an advantage among party officials and superdelegates, almost assure her the nomination.

Clinton isn't expected to win in Oregon's Tuesday primary, which will be decided by an electorate that's mostly white, liberal, and seemingly pro-Sanders. The Oregonian reports on voters coming up to the polls saying they prefer Sanders because he focuses on income inequality or because, says one, Clinton is "criminal." Oregon is actually holding Tuesday primaries for both parties, with 61 Democratic delegates and 28 Republican delegates up for grabs, but hasn't posted any returns yet. Like all Democratic primaries, Oregon and Kentucky will divvy up delegates proportionally, so Sanders isn't likely to make much of a dent in Clinton's delegate-lead, Five Thirty-Eight notes.
