The Gloves Are Off!



The South Carolina Republican Primary and the Nevada Caucus. Congratulations to Donald J. Trump and Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton on winning.

Donald Trump took the victory in the most bitterly fought primary. It became a huge defeat for not only Ted Cruz, but Marco Rubio, Ben Carson and Jeb Bush. John Kasich still has some breath of life left in him. Rubio and Cruz will continue to fight to the bitter end.

Donald Trump has won the South Carolina primary, according to projections from the AP, CBS News, NBC News, and Fox News. It's the second victory in a row for the billionaire, who looks to have about 34% of the vote. This in spite of exit polls that showed that some four in 10 voters made up their minds at the last minute and many broke for Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio, who are still locked in a battle for second and third place at around 21% of the vote. Jeb Bush is running a distant fourth place, and faces some hard decisions as his fundraising dries up.

Hillary Clinton managed to beat Bernie Sanders in the Nevada caucus. It was considered one of the toughest fights for the former secretary of state. Agitators in the junk food media were hoping that Sanders was going to upset Clinton in the race.

Clinton avoided a "dramatic setback" with the win. And the Hill states it will "calm some nerves" after Sanders nearly beat both expectations and Clinton in the state. Sanders managed to turn a double-digit deficit in earlier polls into a narrow loss. The results of the caucus were called about two hours after it started.

The win gives Clinton some momentum with the South Carolina primary and Super Tuesday coming up. She also now has evidence that 2016 will play out differently than her 2008 contest against Obama and that she is more electable than Sanders. But it wasn't all good news for Clinton. She underperformed among Latino voters and isn't getting "fervent support" from young people. New Republic notes this "enthusiasm gap" could hurt her in the general election.

Nikki Haley Endorses Marco Rubio!



Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) is fighting against Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) for the second spot.

Rubio scored a huge endorsement today. The governor of South Carolina, Nikki Haley came out in favor of him. She also bucked front runners Donald Trump and Cruz for being too divisive.

Haley is a rising star in the Republican Party. She bucked her own party when it came to the Confederate flag. The governor faced pressure from the families of the victims killed at Emanuel AME Church and  #BlackLivesMatter.

In July, the state officially removed the flag from the state grounds. The governor won praise from Democrats and Republicans for taking a

Rubio gets the approval of South Carolina's Nikki Haley.
Haley along with Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) and Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) believe that Rubio can bring the Republicans together.

Jeb Bush who was hoping for Haley's endorsement was none too happy about it. Bush felt that she made a huge mistake in endorsing Rubio.

Bush has been hammering Rubio, Trump and Cruz for having no experience. He's so far trailing either in fourth place or fifth place.

Dr. Ben Carson and John Kasich are stumbling in the national polls.

Carson's last stand could be in South Carolina. If he doesn't finish strong he may eventually drop out.

Kasich's second place victory in New Hampshire was a bump that all but disappeared. He's signals he'll carry the contest to Super Tuesday, Ohio and Florida.

The country's most nastiest agitator went to social media to blast Haley. The ignorant woman thinks that American-born Nikki Haley is an immigrant.






The South Carolina primary is on Saturday. It looks like Trump may pull a strong victory in the state.

But don't count out polls. Rubio and Cruz are both competitive challengers.

Rubio's Morning In America Was Actually In Canada!

The Morning In America by Marco Rubio was filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) is such a dork.

Desperately trying to win the Republican presidential nomination, he tries to channel his inner Ronald Reagan by making his version of Morning in America. He would have a calm voice narrator cover the political ad blasting President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

In the first scene you see a skyline of a major city with tugboats cruising across the waterway.

The skyline is not an American city. It's actually Vancouver, Canada. To make it even more noticeable, they zoomed in on the flag aside the tugboat showing the Canadian flag.

Okay, the Rubio campaign said that it's not the video, it's the message. He's trying to make the point that Obama's policies hurt America.

Those pseudo-patriots will say that the Canadian city in the video will always be a distraction.
Pathetic. Marco Rubio got stuck with the robotic claim.
Rubio hired the company to produce the video and used stock footage of Vancouver, Washington, DC, San Francisco and New York City for the video.

If it wasn't for Buzzfeed once again taking the time to cover the goofs and gaffes of the political candidates, Rubio would have gotten away with it.

Even the Canadian junk food media mocking Rubio.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau hasn't spoken on the video but he probably appreciates Rubio's shout out to his country.

Vancouver is the eighth largest city in Canada. It's located in British Columbia on the west coast. It's population of 605,000. The vicinity covers 2.4 million residents. It's 35 miles from the U.S.-Canadian border.

Vancouver gives tax breaks to American and Canadian filmmakers. Many shows such as The Flash, Arrow and Supergirl (DC comics) are filmed in the city.

Some of American television shows and movies are filmed in Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal.



Around The Bush!

Miss me, yet?

Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush is bring out his brother.

Mr. 43, himself, George Walker Bush.

The campaign trail is getting a little rockier for the former Florida governor. Bush is hoping to cash in on his brother's popularity in the deeply conservative state.

The Bush family is in South Carolina in a last ditch effort to score a win. They're touting the narrative that "Trump is a reality television star" while the Bush family "kept America safe".

As you know, George W. Bush is relatively unpopular among many in the nation. He left the country in such disarray and to this day never apologized for his actions. Bush gave America, Barack Obama.

After winning two terms, Obama managed to proceed over the most partisan Congress to ever exist.

Republicans forgotten that 9/11 happened under George W. Bush's watch. They forgotten that Bush is responsible for the negligent handling of Hurricane Katrina. But it's the Democrats fault right!

Republicans made it top priority to defeat him as best as they could. They figure that its fiction that Obama's impact helped the economy. They believe that the numbers are fixed when it comes unemployment. The Republicans believe that a united front in creating stability in the Middle East is betraying Israel. Republicans are fearing that Obama picking a potential Supreme Court justice nominee could swing the court away from its conservative slant.

The Republicans are cautious about addressing the obvious. They'll scapegoat Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama as the blame for the nation's woes.

Now that the partisan bar shifted from terrorism to the potential swing of the Supreme Court, Bush is hoping that his brother's legacy of appointing John Roberts and Samuel Alito could bring conservatives back to their senses.

Donald Trump and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) are aiming at Bush. They believe that appointing Roberts as the Chief Justice was a big mistake. Trump aimed at Cruz for backing him. Cruz aimed at Trump for supporting the liberal justices in some issues.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) is a failed presidential candidate. He went ahead and endorse Bush for president.

Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC), Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) and Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC) endorsed Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) for president.

Here's the video of the Brothers Bush with the most annoying conservative agitator Sean Hannity.

Hannity is one of the biggest ass kissing shrills for Republicans. He constantly bitches about Obama's policies and Bush doing his best to "keep America safe".

Knight To Pawn!

Republicans threaten government shutdown over Obama's pick to replace Antonin Scalia.

The right is scrambling for an offense. The sudden death of Supreme Court justice Antonin Scalia has become a political football. The conservative justice died in Texas yesterday leaving the Supreme Court in limbo. Republicans are demanding the president hold back. They don't want him to nominate a justice. They rather have a new president take control of the situation.

President Barack Obama said that he will nominate a person to fill the position. Republicans are signaling a fight in the Senate.

Once again the Republicans threaten to shut down the government because they fear the wrath of elites and conservative agitators in the junk food media.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) are threatening filibuster if Obama nominate anyone to the Supreme Court.

Check it, the Republican Party got to booing John Dickerson when he corrected Cruz at the debate.

Cruz boldly said that Ronald Reagan appointed his third justice, Anthony Kennedy in 1987. It was true that he appointed the nominee, but the fact it was 1988 when he was confirmed. It was confirmed during an election year. Cruz was dishonest in that point.
President Barack Obama is going forth to pick a nominee. And he dares Republicans to stop him.
Cruz did pause and stare down Dickerson which led to the audience booing. Yes, Cruz told something that was false but it didn't stop him from making his platitude speech.

This is a lose/lose for the Republicans. The Supreme Court decisions that conservatives favor could be in jeopardy of being struck down.

The president may nominate a moderate.

The Republicans can stall a nominee but it will backfire. The Democrats will sabotage the Republican if he makes it to the White House.

This game is getting old.

Republicans are proving themselves to be quite inept.

If Donald Trump or Ted Cruz should become the Republican nominee, the party could face a bitter defeat. I know that the moderates and non-partisan Republicans are going to sour on the two bombastic candidates.

BREAKING: Antonin Scalia Passed Away!

Supreme Court justice Antonin Scalia passed away.


It was learned today that the Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia had passed away. He died one month shy of his 80th birthday. He was 79 years old.

World News Today send our condolences to the family of Justice Antonin Scalia.

A New Jersey native, Scalia was then a lawyer, a professor and a mentor. He mentored presidential candidate and current senator Ted Cruz (R-TX).

He was of Italian-American heritage and is the father of nine. He was married to Maureen McCarthy, a woman Scalia found love after having a blind date.

Scalia was appointed by Ronald Reagan in 1986, he served as one of the longest serving justices in the Court. He was known for his colorful and yet controversial stances on many issues brought to the Court.

Scalia said that the day will come when monumental change could occur. But as an originalist he wanted to keep things the way is was. He shown that type of actions when he became the influential decision maker in the District of Columbia v. Heller case. That stripped localities from issuing gun bans in the communities. The gun owners cheered that as one of the Court's biggest gun rights decisions.

Scalia was in West Texas. He apparently passed away of natural causes. He was a featured speaker and guest at the Cibolo Creek Ranch, a resort in the Big Bend region south of the town of Marfa.

He was attending a private party at the ranch. When he didn't arrive for a breakfast gathering, a bell hop went to the room and found his body.

The U.S. Marshals are investigating the ranch to make sure that issues there didn't result in negligence.

The nation's court is hanging at the balance.

Conservatives praised the justice for taking the ground on issues such as abortion, gun rights, tort laws and gay marriage. His death is a huge blow to the conservative movement.

Matter of fact, they feared this could happen.

Scalia's death has far-reaching implications for the Court and a set of major court cases are set to come down. One in particular deals with Affirmative Action. The Fisher v. University of Texas case was going to be a monumental decision. President Barack Obama's executive orders on immigration were brought up in the court. A split decision will void the case. The Republicans also threatened to bring Obamacare back into the Court.

President Barack Obama and members of Congress as well as the candidates had chimed in on the passing.

Obama will nominate a person to fill the vacancy. It will be certainly a fight with Republicans in the Senate. They have the majority. They can hold the nominee or call a vote to reject the nominee.

Already putting out a statement, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) said that the next president will fill the vacancy. The Republicans will pull bullshit moves to hold back Obama's nominee.

But eventually they'll have to vote on it.

It also makes them vulnerable to Democrat charges that the Republicans can't govern. Democrats warn Republicans that denying Obama a nominee will result in "payback" if a Republican wins the White House.

Republicans are in a situation where they have a no win situation. They can't deny the president his Constitutional right to nominate a Supreme Court justice. They are allowed to run the clock out on the nominee. The Democrats can also force a vote on the floor.

Republicans are going to be fucked regardless of what they do!

We will keep you informed on this developing story.

Cruz The Backstroke!

Actress denounced Ted Cruz after she slut shames her.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) got egg on his face this weekend ahead of the debate and South Carolina primary.

The Ted Cruz Campaign was hit by friendly fire. That friendly fire was the definition of irony.

There was a political ad aimed at Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) in which a group of disgruntled Republicans met at an anonymous meeting discussing their frustrations with Washington.

One of the actresses who gave the line, "Maybe you should vote for more than a pretty face" was named Amy Lindsay.

Amy gave the dog whistle "about them people". The commercial was hard hitting until a person recognized Lindsay. Someone found out that Amy was the girl guys really got a hold on. I mean they really wanted her.
Damn.
It turns out that Amy was a former softcore porn actress. She played in some X-rated movies on Cinemax and HBO. The word got to the social media and Cruz was ridiculed for the decision to run the ad.

Amy who supported Cruz during his run was pissed that the campaign pulled the ad and shamed the her for being a "vile liberal operative" who tried to sabotage the campaign.

Amy was getting some really good airplay on the junk food media. Amy retired from the porn game and is doing minor roles on television. She said that Cruz was foolish for dumping the ad. She said that she would have voted for him but seeing how he reacts to things, she may consider supporting his arch-rival Donald Trump.

Her website and social media spiked a bit after she was outed as the woman who once did a backstroke on a man's....Well you know!

The video is circulating and it's too late for Cruz to call for removal. Many of the people seen it and they're laughing at him for being such a stick in the mud.

Obama To Visit A Mosque!

President Barack Obama to visit a Baltimore Islamic center.

No he's not a Muslim. He's a part of the United Church of Christ. You may remember that they were hand ringing about the president's former pastor Jeremiah Wright making the fiery sermons about the United States and god's law.

Well the White House announced that President Barack Obama will head to the Islamic Society of Baltimore to address religious freedom and acceptance.

President Obama has been criticizing increasing anti-Islamic sentiment in the United States.

"When politicians insult Muslims, whether abroad or our fellow citizens, when a mosque is vandalized, or a kid is called names, that doesn't make us safer," the president said during the 2016 State of the Union.

Fear of terrorist attacks on American soil has risen after attacks in San Bernardino, California, and Paris. And according to a study by the Council on American-Islamic Relations, attacks on mosques in 2015 were at the highest point since the group began keeping track in 2009.

But presidents visiting mosques is obviously nothing new. President George W. Bush famously visited one just 6 days after the attacks on September 11, in another attempt to quell intolerance.

"The face of terror is not the true faith of Islam," President Bush said when he visited the Islamic Center at Washington D.C. "That's not what Islam is all about. Islam is peace."

I am expecting the Islamophobia to be off the hook from assholes like Donald Trump and Ted Cruz.

Pam Geller will be in the spotlight again.

That annoying conservative agitator Sean Hannity or that old fart Rush Limbaugh will likely bemoan about the president refusing to say the polarizing word vomit "radical Islam".

It will be splashed on Matt Drudge's conservative Craiglist.

Ann Coulter would use her Twitter fingers to attack the president on being a sympathizer to Muslims.

And of course it will be more dog whistle to Trumpublicans to question the president's birth or religion.

These clowns on that right wing network going right into him.

Teens Put On Ice After Pulling A N****r Prank!

Say if you were doing this and you thought it was funny!



A group of White teens who attended Arizona's Desert Vista High School posed with t-shirts spelling the word NI**ER. The girls left out the Gs in the offensive word.

This picture sparked outrage and it put the girls on ice.

The girls were wearing the shirts for senior picture day when a larger group of students wrote letter tees and posed to spell out "Best You've Ever Seen Class of 2016."

Change.org petition calls for the girls to be sent home without diploma. There has been over 10,000 signatures according to the New York Daily News. Matter of fact, the principal is under fire as well.

The principal said that giving them 5 days of freezer burn is acceptable. Not according to the people who created the petition.

This hurtful use of a racial slur is a complete disregard for the dignity of the black community in Arizona and across the nation and the punishment does not fit the total ignorance and cruelty of the crime.

The people of Change.org demand the resignation of the school's principal, Christine Barela, immediately for deeming this "5-day vacation" from school an acceptable punishment.
What did you learn in high school?
RacistGetFired blog outs them by name. In no particular order: Samantha Iannone, Emily Sears, Brooke Taylor, Riley Conner, Erin Lum, and Rachel Steigerwald were the girls involved in this.

The teens received a share of online bullying and death threats since.

There was a Phoenix city councilman who somewhat defended the girls. He said that they're idiots, but it shouldn't merit death threats and online harassment. Sal DiCicco posted on social media saying that school resource officers will try to calm the situation.

"They made a bad mistake as many teenagers do in life. But, any threats against these young women is going to be taken very seriously. The threats against these young girls is unacceptable."

For a few weeks, the law will monitor the school for potential threats upon the school and those attending.

Will the junk food media call these girls a bunch of thugs and miscreants?

The Feds End Bundy's Slumber Party!

The anti-gubmint Bundys were booted off the federal land.

The feds broke up the armed siege of a wildlife preserve in Oregon. The Bundy clan took refuge in early January and told the junk food media they won't leave.

The town where these White extremists held refuge were really terrified. These terrorists threatened to attack the feds if they try to drive them away from the compound.

It seems like one of the White extremists lost his life to the feds. The feds opened fire on one of the men when they were arresting ringleader Ammon Bundy.  LaVoy Finicum, 54 was killed by the feds.

The FBI said authorities arrested Ammon Bundy, 40, his brother Ryan Bundy, 43, Brian Cavalier, 44, Shawna Cox, 59, and Ryan Payne, 32, during a traffic stop Tuesday afternoon on U.S. Highway 395. Authorities said another person, Joseph Donald O'Shaughnessy, 45, was arrested in Burns.

Bundy's group, which has included people from as far away as Arizona and Michigan, seized the headquarters of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge on Jan. 2 as part of a long-running dispute over public lands in the West.

Bundy is the son of Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, who was involved in a high-profile 2014 standoff with the government over grazing rights.

There are conflicting accounts of the highway shooting. Nevada lawmaker Michele Fiore says Ammon Bundy called his wife and told her that Finicum was cooperating with authorities when he was shot, but sources tell the Oregonian that he resisted arrest and ignored an order to surrender.

This may spark the anti-gubmint movement. The White extremists may use this as a recruitment tool for their cause.

One occupier still at the refuge tells the New York Times that the plan now is to wait for sunlight "and see what's up." Jason Patrick says the mood is "prepared but calm," but he believes the FBI is "hellbent on war." "They said 'peaceful resolution,' but now there is a dead cowboy," he says.

Trump: Cruz Isn't Tough On The Border! He and "Dopey" Beck Gave Teddy Bears To Illegals!

beck 6
Donald Trump is going after Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) for handing out teddy bears and soccer balls to immigrants.

The civil war within the Republican Party has gotten uglier. The fight between business mogul Donald Trump and Sen. Ted Cruz  (R-TX) has pitted conservatives against one another.

The key states of Iowa and New Hampshire, Trump and Cruz are leading in the primary polls with Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), Ohio governor John Kasich, New Jersey's Chris Christie and Jeb Bush trailing from behind.

Many conservatives see that Trump and Cruz as the only candidate viable for them. But many establishment politicos believe that if they choose them, it could spell disaster for the party.

Cruz is gaining some endorsements. Rick "OOPS" Perry, Glenn Beck, Dana Loesh, Mark Levin, Brent Bozell, Katie Pavlich and Megyn "The Outrage Princess" Kelly had came out against Donald Trump. He's gotten strong backing from conservative agitators in the junk food media.

A couple dozen conservative agitators wrote in The National Review saying that Trump is not a conservative. Beck, Loesh, Bozell, Cal Thomas and Erick Erickson voiced concern that many agitators in the junk food media failed to vet Trump.

But could it be too late? The Trump supporters are calling them "sell-outs" and "traitors" to the cause.

The Republican National Committee chief Reince Priebus fired NR out the cannon. They were supposed to be a side sponsor to the failed NBC debate, but Priebus decided to end it for both NBC and NR. CNN will host the debate.

Trump's fiery rhetoric is destroying Cruz. Trump went after Cruz for being born in Canada and his support for immigration reform. Although Cruz is adamant against immigration reform, a couple years back he went to the border with Glenn Beck and handing out teddy bears and soccer balls.

Trump is likely going to use that to make Cruz seem like he's a hypocrite and part of the establishment.

Glenn Beck and Dana Loesh live in Dallas. They operate their television programs on TheBlaze Network. They often appear on other networks as commentators and they are the fourth and eighth most listened talk radio agitators respectfully.

Beck became one of the most high profiled endorsements for the controversial Texas senator. It was a rebuke to former Alaskan governor Sarah Palin's endorsement of Trump.

Republicans Declare War On Cruz And Trump!

Republican are feuding with one another over a potential Donald Trump or Ted Cruz nomination.

While the bromance is over between the two, many Republicans are fearing that the rhetoric by the two Republican front runners could spell disaster for the party.

The Republican Party is tearing itself into pieces because of the insurgents. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Donald Trump are leading in the national polls. But some insiders are saying that these two are proven to be embarrassments to the Republican establishment.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) who dropped out the race to endorse Jeb Bush went to the junk food media to declare that Trump and Cruz could destroy the party "A choice between the two is like being shot or poisoned".

The National Review fired first shots at Trump. They released a hard hitting commentary slamming the notion of Trump being a "true conservative". It had commentary from many prominent conservative writers, Republican strategists and average voters.

The Des Moines Register came out and endorsed Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) against Trump and Cruz.

Sarah Palin's endorsement of Trump also sparked a feud between her longtime friend and fellow agitator Glenn Beck.
Glenn Beck endorses Cruz.
Beck, a media mogul who controls TheBlaze Network is so freaking tired of Trump. He openly condemned the notion of Trump being the nominee. Beck once gave Trump strong praise until he went after Cruz. Beck openly endorsed a feud with Trump.

Trump basically called Beck a "wacko" has been who now does internet shows instead of real ones.

Now that right wing network will host the next Republican debate before the Iowa caucus and it's already causing controversy.

Megyn "The Outrage Princess" Kelly along with "Smirking Chimp" Chris Wallace and "Unibrow" Bret Beier will moderate the debate again. Trump already said that Megyn's got to go!

The Republican Party is so fucked up right now.

Hollywood Conservatives Denounces #OscarsSoWhite!

Hollywood conservatives speak out against #OscarsSoWhite and Jada Pinkett Smith's boycott of the Oscars.

Did you know that some entertainers in Hollywood are conservative?

Chuck Norris, Ted Nugent, Patricia Heaton, Kelsey Grammer, Clint Eastwood, Jenna Jameson, Rob Schneider, LL Cool J, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Shannen Doherty, Adam Corolla, Dennis Miller, Vince Vaughn, James Woods, Jon Voight, Adam Sandler, Stacey Dash, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone and Melissa Joan Hart are notable Republicans celebrities.

Hollywood does have celebrities who are dye in the wool Republicans. They happened to be some on the A-list all the way down to the D-list.

Many of these celebrities have spoken on the boycott against the Academy Awards.

Even some in the nomination committee sparked a tad bit of outrage.

Lionel Chetwynd a member of the Academy board said, "It's shortsighted that people are making these accusation and, frankly it's insulting. He added, "I'm quite capable of judging and marveling at a performance without being conscious of the actor's skin color, What's wrong with you all? It's not the Academy of Diversity."

Chetwynd, believes that the votes weren't inspired by bigotry.

"Sometimes it takes a long period of time for culture change to be reflected the time, and they're going to be replaced by a new generation of artists But that doesn't happen overnight. And it shouldn't," said Chetwynd.

Actor Michael Caine an Oscar winner himself found himself catching some heat. The British actor said that Black actors should be "patient" for Oscar nominations and that he wouldn't vote for a Black actor solely based on his race.

"There's are loads of black actors; I think in he end you can't vote for an actor (just) because he's black. You can't say, 'I'm going to vote for him, he's not very good but he's Black, (so) I'll vote for him.' You've got to give a good performance."

British actress Charlotte Rampling fought back tears when she went on record to say that the #OscarsSoWhite hashtag and the boycott was "racist to White people." She went as far to say that Black actors aren't good enough for a nomination. By the way, Rampling is nominated for an Oscar for the movie 45 years.

"One can never really know, but perhaps the Black actors did not deserve to make the final list," said Rampling. Asked if the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences should introduce quotas, a proposal which no current advocate of increased diversity has mooted, Rampling responds with this tepid response: "Why classify people? These days everyone is more or less accepted. People will always say 'Him, he's less handsome'; 'Him, he's too Black', 'He is too White'.... someone will always be saying 'You are too [this or that] ... But do we have to take from this that there should be lots of minorities everywhere?"

Truly sad and pathetic that we have people who continue to undermine the real message to why the Academy Awards have to change. When will they realize that this issue has been active for years.

One Of Trump's Many Friends!

Steve Bowman (WOWT/Screenshot)


Mama Grizzly's earth shattering (yawn) endorsement of Donald Trump kind of took the steam out of Ted Cruz's campaign. The shrill and ignorant voice of Sarah Palin could help Trump win the state of Iowa.

Palin's endorsement of Trump was a huge blow to the Cruz campaign who desperately sought out her endorsement.

Her rhetoric is so out of the mainstream it affects the minds of some. Now some asshole from Omaha went out his way to show support for Trump by calling President Barack Obama a "NIGGER".

The Raw Story reports that WOWT reporter John Chapman interviewed Steve Bowman, a white man living in northeast Omaha, on Tuesday morning. Bowman’s home was festooned with a sign in his window announcing he is a supporter of GOP candidate Trump. He also displayed a sign that said "nigger Obama."

"Well I grew up in the 60’s," Bowman said when asked by Chapman if he thought the Obama sign was too much. "I remember racial riots. I know Martin Luther King. I’m 57 so I grew up in the late 50’s early 60’s and I know what it’s like the water guns the racial riots and Birmingham. You know the south, I know all about it. I have a master’s degree in history."

He then admitted, "It might be a little racist."

It so happens that Bowman lives across the street from an African-American family, with two young girls.

"He’s been putting up stuff like that constantly. Constantly putting up stuff like that and I’ll bring it up to him gently, you know, '"rake that down please you know this is not the neighborhood for that'" neighbor Regina Wright told WOWT. "He understands and he will take it down after I mention it to him, but then he’ll put something else up."

After discussing the matter with Chapman, Bowman decided to take the sign down.

It seems like Trump's supporters are kind of ignorant as well.

Carson Had A Death In The Campaign!

Ben Carson lost a member of his campaign.

A campaign volunteer was killed on slick highways near Omaha, Nebraska. On the road near Council Bluffs, Iowa, the campaign van that carried Ben Carson's campaign staffers and volunteers hit the ice.

Braden Joplin, 25 was the only fatality. The three other passengers and the driver were treated and released, said the Carson campaign.

Carson canceled all events for the next two days. He will meet with Joplin's family to express condolences.

"One of the precious few joys of campaigning is the privileged of meeting bright young men and women who are so enthusiastic about their country that they will freely give of their time and energy to work on its behalf", Carson said. "America lost one of those bright young men today".

The incident happened on Interstate 80.

The crash involved a green 2015 Ford van and a 2012 Chevy Avalanche.

The driver of the van lost control on the icy road when he attempted to switch lanes, The van crossed the median and then was broadsided by a pickup truck.

Jonathan "Drew" McCall, 27 of Sugar Land, Texas was driving the van and Brian Sutton of Council Bluffs, 42 was driving the pickup truck. The Iowa State Highway Patrol will likely cite McCall for the accident.

World News Today send our condolences to the family of Braden Joplin.

You Betcha, I'm Palling Around With The Donald!

Donald Trump won the Tea Party Queen's support.

The former Alaskan governor Sarah Palin emerges from obscurity to endorse the controversial reality television star and business mogul Donald Trump.

She was the former vice presidential nominee for the John McCain campaign in 2008.

It comes as no surprise that Trump said that he would find a place for Palin in his administration if he was elected the president. Palin is a longtime supporter of Trump, and even backed his controversial call for a "complete shutdown" of Muslims entering the United States. Back in August, Palin raved about the businessman, praising him for "crushing it in the polls."

Matter of fact, this comes a huge blow to Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) who is neck and neck with Trump.

Cruz wasn't thrilled about the endorsement.




She was the one who helped Cruz and fellow candidate Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) win their bids in the U.S. Senate.

Iowa's Republican governor Terry Branstad also went forth to slam Cruz because he voted against ethanol subsidiaries that fuels Iowa's economy.

Do You Actually Take Cruz Seriously?



Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) is by far one of the most divisive politicians elected to the Senate. He's pretty much a gadfly to many lawmakers from both chambers.

For a relatively unaccomplished lawmaker, Ted Cruz spends a large amount of time talking nonsense.

Cruz's appearance on GOP Sundays was a "victory lap" for him. Some Republicans say that Cruz and rival Donald Trump had a great night. Many politicos are saying that it may shape up to be a "two man" race.

So as he appears on the syndicated right wing news channel's Sunday, he talks to Chris Wallace about the real important issues.

Of course, Cruz being the showboating lawmaker makes the conversation about Trump, President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

When confronted on controversial issues that his rivals will likely bring up in the election, Cruz said that it's part of the junk food media's attempt to distract from the real issue of Obama's failures.

Once Again #OscarsSoWhite Is Trending!


If it wasn't for #BlackLivesMatter, I wouldn't have notice this stuff. I've normally avoided watching award shows.

I don't care for them.

But now I am going to start caring because it's starting to look a little more Whiter and less colorful.

And for that, it spawned the hashtag #OscarsSoWhite.

Again, the Academy Awards is facing harsh scrutiny over nominating only White actors, directors and producers over the Black and Hispanic talent.

None of the 20 main spots were given to any actors of color. Especially the Black ones.

The Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is about to be boycotted.

Straight Outta Compton, Creed, Concussion, Beasts of No Nation and The Hateful Eight were snubbed.

Me and S. Baldwin see this as a disgrace of talent and deliberate attempts to undermine the great feats of Black, Hispanic and Asian actors and actresses.

If this is supposed to be LIBERAL HOLLYWOOD, wondering who's in charge of the nominating committee?

There are four acting categories with 20 slots each. Not one of those categories have a Black actor or director nominated for the award.

Will the #BlackLivesMatter activists try to convince Chris Rock bow out of hosting duties?

Will Chris Rock address the controversy?

Does The Academy Awards Nominations Deliberately Shut Out Black Entertainers?
Yeah. I believe it's terrible for Hollywood to shut out great talent.
Nope. It's not a big deal. Maybe the talent wasn't good enough for the nomination.

Ann Coulter Calls Nikki Haley An Anchor Baby!

Agitator calls Nikki Haley an "anchor baby".

So I guess she's no longer a part of the insurgency.

South Carolina's Nikki Haley decided to follow the trends of hashtag activism by signing off the removal of the Confederate flag from state grounds. She along with Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) and Rep. Mark Sanford (R-SC) joined in unison as they finally caved over the controversial flag being waved.

In the wake of the Charleston massacre, the Republican governor heard the rally cries of #BlackLivesMatter and the families of the victims. She felt that the time is now for South Carolina to turn a page against an ugly history.

Nimrata Randhawa Haley is one of the youngest governors in the nation is born to Indian parents. She is very vocal in the Republican Party and is floated as a potential vice presidential candidate.

She is married to her husband Mark and has two children. She identifies as Christian but sometimes practice Sikh with her family.
The Queen of Mean.
She became governor of the state after then-governor Sanford resigned from the governor's mansion after he admitted he used taxpayer's in his affair.

Haley was rewarded with the Republican response.

Of course, the governor went after President Barack Obama. But what caused conservative outrage was the ding at Donald Trump, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-SC) and probably Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC).

Her response didn't go so well for the racist right. It's resident rube is conservative agitator Ann Coulter. She wasted no time going after First Lady Michelle Obama. But she saved the best for Haley.


















Coulter is no stranger to ignorant and downright stupid remarks is so fucking confused about Haley.

She doesn't know that Haley was born in South Carolina and is an American citizen.

Coulter doesn't give a fuck. She hates political correctness and she a huge fan of Trump. Matter of fact, that annoying conservative agitator Sean Hannity and the old fart Rush Limbaugh are ass-kissing Trump.

They rather have a blowhard than a blow over.

About Joe Wilson. He's a South Carolina lawmaker who represents the 2nd Congressional District. He represent Columbia and southwestern tier. Wilson became famous for yelling "You Lie" at President Barack Obama during his Joint Session of Congress Speech (similar to the State of the Union).

Thai Dye!

Yikes. That's not cool..


BANGKOK (AP) — A Thai cosmetics company quickly pulled a video in which an actress wears blackface and promotes a skin-whitener with the slogan: "You just need to be white to win." The retraction did little, however, to stem a debate the ad ignited about the regularity of racist advertisements in the Southeast Asian country.

The online ad for the new product called "Snowz" featured porcelain-skinned Thai movie star Cris Horwang talking about being an aging actress in a competitive industry.

"If I stopped looking after myself, everything that I have worked for -- all the investment I have made to keep myself white -- would disappear," says the 35-year-old actress. "New stars would replace me, I would fade away."

As she speaks, a smiling, younger woman enters the picture and Cris' own image darkens to charcoal black. A male voice says, "You just need to be white to win."

A tirade of criticism erupted after the video was launched online Thursday. Online commentators labeled the ad as racist and ignorant, while some heaped criticism on the actress for accepting the job.

Others called it a strategic way to attract wide attention and boost sales.

"Ewwwwwww," was the reaction of 28-year-old Jutamas Tritaruyanon, one of many to post their disapproval on Facebook.

"This ad is so obviously racist and another attempt to brainwash Thai women," Jutamas, a Bangkok-based office worker, told AP. "They're saying that being dark is ugly. It's a narrow-minded and disgusting attitude."

The Thai cosmetics company Seoul Secret issued a "heartfelt apology" in a statement Friday saying it had pulled the video clip and related advertisements.

"Our company did not have any intention to convey discriminatory or racist messages," the statement posted on its Facebook page said. "What we intended to convey was that self-improvement in terms of personality, appearance, skills and professionalism is crucial."

The ad is hardly the first to use racial stereotypes in Thailand, where beauty is often characterized as fair and delicate. Darker skin is often associated with rural lower-class Thais, and the country has an enormous industry in skin-whitening products and cosmetic clinics to help customers emulate the porcelain complexions of the Bangkok elite.

TV commercials for skin-whitening products regularly promote the idea that white is beautiful.

In 2013, the Dunkin' Donuts franchise in Thailand used a female model in blackface makeup to promote a chocolate doughnut. The company's CEO in Thailand initially dismissed complaints about racism, but the U.S. parent company quickly apologized and pulled the ad.

An herbal Thai toothpaste says its dark-colored product "is black, but it's good." A longtime Thai brand of household mops and dustpans called "Black Man" uses a logo with a smiling black man in a tuxedo and bow tie.
