May Flowers!

Ah choo, looks like Spring is an allergy prone season. But for the upcoming Summer months, it looks like it's a little more better for the unemployed.

It seems like even with an inept Congress, President Barack Obama is getting things done. The Department of Labor releases its monthly jobs report for April and it seems like they gotten over 288,000 jobs for the month.

It pulls the unemployment rate to 6.3%.

This is great news for the unemployed and underemployed. That means that everything is working.

The Republicans already put their gamble on blocking minimum wage. A partially bipartisan bill was killed by the Stallmigos.

Also with that being said, it's unfortunate that the very same Republicans blocked immigration reform, the president's job proposals, green energy and unemployment benefits.

CNBC reports that despite the big number, not all the news was good: The headline rate tumbled as 806,000 people left the civilian labor force. The labor force participation rate slumped to 62.8 percent, its worst of the year and near 35-year lows. Also, the average work week was unchanged at 34.5 hours, as were average hourly earnings at $24.31.

Consequently, markets moved higher following the report's release, but only modestly. Stock market futures indicated a slight gain at the open, though government bond yields popped.

The report comes amid economic growth of 0.1 percent in the first quarter that consensus expects to reverse higher for the rest of 2014. Friday's number added to those hopes.

Employment surged across sectors, with professional and business sectors adding 75,000 and retail gaining 35,000. Food and drinking establishments rose 33,000 while construction added 32,000 positions, according to the report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Revisions reported Friday further doused the weather story, as job creation was actually quite strong in the early months of 2014. Revisions pushed February's number to 222,000 and March's initially reported 192,000 to 203,000.

At the same time, the Federal Reserve has been forced to adjust its focus on the headline unemployment rate as a guide for policy.

The U.S. central bank had kept a 6.5 percent target as the trigger for a rate increase, but declining labor force participation and weak inflation ratings have forced the Fed to change its approach from targeting specific numbers to a more nebulous focus on the quality of economic conditions.

Friday's nonfarm payrolls report was unlikely to move the needle on Fed policy, which is focused on reducing the monthly bond purchases and keeping its target funds rate near zero.

Oklahoma Can't Do The Needle Right!

Condemned man's fate becomes the subject of the how the death penalty is handled in United States.

Governor Mary Fallin is a stupid leader. She would reject federal assistance when a tornado hits her state and yes she wouldn't want President Barack Obama's advice on how to do a death sentence right!

Of course this latest blunder in the gas house will spark debate over the Eighth Amendment. Was this event an example of cruel and unusual punishment?

People would say that the killer regardless of what blunder got justice. But the family of the condemned would file a grievance with the U.S. Federal Courts saying that the inmate didn't have proper procedures when handed his sentence.

Clayton Lockett was sentenced to death after he was convicted of murder, rape and kidnapping.

His fate at the death house was botched up. The state couldn't get the juice because the European Union banned the stuff. The United States now has to use stuff that puts dogs down.

The stuff that relaxes the muscles (which causes them not to move). The stuff that stops breathing. The stuff that stops the heart. It could be taken by oral or injection. It's a lethal combination.

Something went wrong. Lockett suffered a heart attack after a botched execution by lethal injection in the U.S. state of Oklahoma.

Governor Mary Fallin is embarrassed by the botched execution of Clayton Lockett.
Lockett was administered whatever goes (an untested mixture of drugs). I guess that it wasn't previously been used for executions in the U.S., and died 43 minutes after being sedated.

Lockett writhed, groaned, convulsed and spoke during the process, and attempted to rise from the execution table 14 minutes into the procedure, despite having been declared unconscious.

From Wikipedia, I've discovered that people were actually crying and almost feeling sorry for the man.

Lockett's execution occurred at Oklahoma State Penitentiary in McAlester, Oklahoma, on April 29, 2014. After administration of the first drug at 6:23 p.m. CDT, Lockett was declared unconscious at 6:33 p.m, and the execution was halted after about 20 minutes.

He was declared dead at 7:06 p.m. due to a heart attack.

Oklahoma Department of Corrections Director Robert Patton said one of the doctors present stopped the execution after Lockett had a "vein failure".

According to the Department of Corrections, the time for an inmate to be pronounced dead was 6 to 12 minutes in the previous 19 executions before Lockett's.

Lockett was able to raise his head, and said: "Man," "I'm not" and "something's wrong".  Lockett began writhing at 6:36 p.m., and was observed twitching and convulsing. He attempted to rise from the table at 6:37 p.m., after being declared unconscious, and loudly exhaled.

All three drugs had been administered to Lockett, but it was unclear how much he had received; Patton said "the chemicals did not enter into the offender."

Prison officials had reportedly discussed taking Lockett to a hospital before he died.

This botched up execution caused a 14-day stay of execution was granted for Charles Frederick Warner, an Oklahoma convict who had been scheduled for execution two hours after Lockett with the same combination of drugs. The governor of Oklahoma, Mary Fallin, also requested an independent review of the execution process involved in Lockett's death.

The White House said the execution "fell short of humane standards".

Governor Fallin said "the state of Oklahoma executed Clayton Lockett" amid widespread media coverage that portrayed the execution as botched, The Telegraph calling it "barbarism" and "inappropriate in a civilized society," also noting that "the idea of actually spectating while the victim is killed surely clashes with basic humanity."
Stephanie Neiman was killed by Clayton Lockett and his friends after he robbed her friends home. He tortured, beat, rape and kidnapped this young woman and buried her alive. He shot her twice in the body.
Lawyers representing the next set of prisoners scheduled to be executed called for a moratorium on all judicial killings. Madeline Cohen, an attorney for Warner, condemned the way Lockett was executed noting that "Clayton Lockett was tortured to death," also denouncing the state's refusal to disclose 'basic information' about the drugs for the lethal injection procedures.

In 1999, Clayton Lockett kidnapped, beat, gang raped and then shot 19-year-old Stephanie Neiman and ordered accomplices to bury her alive, and raped a friend of Neiman.

He was convicted of murder, rape, forcible sodomy, kidnapping, assault and battery, and burglary in 2000, and sentenced to death.

We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to the family of Stephanie Neiman.

This event may have opened the door to how states administer the death sentence.

What's your reaction to this event?

Was this a fair way of treatment?

Was there a lapse of judgement in how they've handled Lockett's condemnation?

Bennie Thompson: Clarence Thomas And Mitch McConnell Ain't Friends To The Black Community!

Congressman Bennie Thompson believes that the constant obstruction by Republicans towards President Barack Obama has more to do with his race than his policies. The racist right pounces on it.

The racist right can't seem to get their "I Told Ya So" moment!

Remember last week the racist right was backing away from Cliven Bundy after it was revealed on tape he was ranting about the NEGRO. That was repudiated by most in the conservative agitating media. 

They were almost close to having t-shirts printed with Bundy in the Obama-style silhouette.

Now that Bundy is back in the cesspool, the racist right wanted to find something to blame the liberals on.

Enter Donald Sterling. The owner of the Los Angeles Clippers was making a racist rant about his former girlfriend posing on the social networks with Black people. He warns her not to bring Blacks to the Clippers games and told that he didn't appreciate her posing with NBA legend Erwin "Magic" Johnson.
The main reason to obstruction of the raising of the minimum wage.
The junk food media went sensational on this. All of sudden, the racist right was trying to find out what political affiliation Sterling endorsed. They dig up a time capsule and found a couple of cheap donations to a bunch of failed Democratic candidates. Automatic Democrat says the racist right.

They ran with this Sterling was a Democrat for the last three days until..... Politifact, Mother Jones and Talking Points Memo burst their bubble.

It turns out that Donald Sterling was a Republican. Abetted that he rarely donated to political campaigns, his message resonated with the Republicans.

So another talking point down the drain. No new villain.

Enter Mississippi Democratic Congressman Bennie Thompson:





Yeah, I can agree that yesterday's vote on raising the federal minimum wage shows that Republicans have real issues with the middle class and people of color. Senator Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) and his 43 members of the Senate blocked the wage.
Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is frequently a target of attack by Black leaders because he opposes the needs of the Black community.
Yeah, McConnell devoted his time to making sure that President Barack Obama being a "one term" president.

Now facing a tougher opponent from the Tea Party and Democratic Party, McConnell will be dirtier than usual. According to the C.R.E.W., he's one of the most corrupt politicos in Washington.

He so far up the ass of the Koch brothers.

Okay, I guess it's wrong to call Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas an "Uncle Tom". After all, he stood behind the Michigan ban on affirmative action.

One thing that the host of this show got wrong was who appointed him. It was George H.W. Bush who nominated Thomas to the Supreme Court after Thurgood Marshall retired from the court. Bush thought it would thought the notion of replacing a Black man to the court would help score some votes.

Thompson is catching flack.

Truth be told, Thompson is right.

Again, I've never in my life see such opposition towards a president.

One could wonder if this wasn't because of racism?

Republican Compares Obama To A Zonkey!

Zonkey is a hybrid of a donkey and zebra.

Anonymous complained that it was those Democrats who were the real racists. Anonymous would leave a handful of comments telling us about the far right domestic terrorist group the Ku Klux Klan being started by Democrats.

Anonymous would say that if the gubmint was a plantation, the Black folks were enslaved by it.

GOP Chair Apologizes for Calling Obama 'Zebra-Donkey' Hybrid in Newsletter
Click here to see the offensive newsletter.
Oh, that was Cliven Bundy. That's the repetitive word vomit you would see in your comment sections from those so called "compassionate conservatives".

Oh we care about the BLACKS, the ILLEGALS and the MUSLIMS says Republican lawmakers.

But if you cared about the minorities, why are you always forwarding those goddamn emails depicting America's president to an animal?

I understand "YOU GUYS" love to hide the bigotry! You claim those LIBS love to silence your "Freedom Of Speech".

Americans Against The Tea Party is my favorite website so far. It covers some of the most stupidest things that comes from racist right.

Winnebago County Republican Central Committee head fucktard sent a email to his fellow fucktards.

[S]aw on the news this week the offspring of a donkey and a zebra, black and white legs, rest all donkey.  Not sure why this is news: now if we can teach him to read a teleprompter, we could have two living creatures the media will fawn over that is part white part black and all a**!
Obviously another stupid fat dumbass Republican.
Well that joke happened to reach the junk food media and thus led to the apology:

I would like to offer my sincere apology to those who were offended, and I regret including this item in the newsletter. In the future, it most certainly won’t happen again.

Yeah, they say it now! How many other times has they let this slip?

Obviously in the age of President Barack Obama, every joke comparing the first Black president to an animal or something that's not his title, is very funny!

I guess he couldn't figure out how many monkeys were in the White House!

NBA Puts The Hammer On Donald Sterling!

The NBA "banned" Donald Sterling for life after it was revealed he made some controversial statements about Blacks.

Me and S. Baldwin have covered the Donald Sterling scandal. The NBA owner has been exposed as another racist jackass. To make note, he's a Republican.

Sterling’s campaign contributions from more than 20 years ago. He spread a total of $4,000 among three Democrats, including former New Jersey Sen. Bill Bradley, Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy, and California Gov. Gray Davis. According to public records, he has given no money to any candidate since.

One thing I want to clear the air with is the political affiliation nonsense. Earlier I've posted that the racist right was already embarrassed over the Cliven Bundy remarks. They've welcomed the right wing militia rancher with open arms.

He ended up saying some not so nice things about "US NEGROS".

Now the conservatives were hoping they were going to deflect their idiocy towards that LA Clippers owner. They were saying that Sterling's measly donations in the 1990s automatically made him a lifelong Democrat.

Drudge Report
That Guy Who Throws Shit On The Wall is a total fool. He got embarrassed again after he jumped the gun on the Donald Sterling scandal.

Pants on Fire!The racist right went to town with it. The Bow Tie Manchild, National Screwview, That Guy Who Throws Shit To The Wall, King Hippo, That Guy Who Helped Obama Win, Chalk E Becker and Loudmouth Bill Cunningham all have pointed that the LA Clippers owner is a Democrat.

King Hippo even quirked that Sterling got in trouble because he didn't donate enough of the cash to Obama.

Now all of a sudden, Mother Jones, Talking Points Memo, The Washington Post and Politifact smashes the talking point putting the agitators back in the holes. It was revealed that Sterling was a registered Republican since 1998.

Ouch. Another stupid talking point going down the drain.
The conservative agitator deleted his tweet after he was debunked.
Now here's where the real action happened. The new NBA commissioner laid the hammer on Sterling.

A lifetime ban from the NBA. No access to the LA Clippers during practice, training, or games. The ban prohibits Sterling from attending any NBA games, entering any Clippers facility, or participating in any business decisions for the Clippers or the NBA.

The punishment was one of the most severe ever imposed on a professional sports owner. Moreover, Silver stated that he would move to force Sterling to sell the team, which would require the consent of three-quarters, or 22, of the other 29 league owners.

The University of California, Los Angeles announced that it was rejecting a $3 million gift from Sterling.

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver announced a lifetime suspension and a $2.5 million fine for the owner of the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday during a press conference that will be remembered as a landmark moment in league history. The punishment was levied just days after audio recordings of Sterling making racist comments were released by TMZ and Deadspin.

“Effective immediately, I am banning Mr. Sterling for life from any association with the Clippers organization or the NBA,” Silver said during a press conference in New York on Tuesday afternoon. “Mr. Sterling may not attend any NBA games or practices. He may not be present at any Clippers facility. He may not participate in any business or player personnel decisions.”

In the recorded conversations that even garnered a rebuke from President Barack Obama, Sterling could be heard telling a woman, V. Stiviano, not to bring black friends to Clippers games or to post photos of herself with black people, including NBA legend Magic Johnson, on her Instagram account.

The NBA Players Association applauded the action taken by Silver but made it clear that it would not be satisfied until Sterling sells the franchise.

“As players, we’re very happy with the decision, but we’re not content yet,” NBPA vice president Roger Mason Jr. said in response to the NBA announcement. “We want immediate action. We want a timetable from the owners on when this vote is going to happen. We feel confident that with Adam Silver’s urging, and we’ve heard from a lot of the owners around the league, we think this is something that can be handled quickly.”
Game Over....
The Los Angeles chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) cancelled its plans for the following month to award Sterling for a second time with its lifetime achievement award.

President Barack Obama characterized the recording of Sterling as "incredibly offensive racist statements". Obama then stated, "When ignorant folks want to advertise their ignorance, you don’t really have to do anything, you just let them talk."

Chumash Casino, the Clippers' most visible sponsor the prior four seasons, ended their relationship with the team, as did sponsors CarMax and Virgin America. Other sponsors and advertisers suspended their relationship with the Clippers while continuing to monitor the situation.

Craig Ferguson: I Quit!

Craig Ferguson is out leaving the Late Late Show.


CBS announced that Stephen Colbert will host Late Show this year. David Letterman is retiring and the executives felt that Colbert was the most suitable choice.

Well news came overnight that the Late Late Show host Craig Ferguson is calling it quits.

The Associated Press report that the Scottish comedian and entertainer hosted since the Late Late 2005.

Ferguson told his studio audience during Monday's taping that he will step down at the end of the year.

Ferguson's show airs after Letterman's, at 12:35 a.m. on weekdays.

The move was no surprise after CBS announced that Stephen Colbert will replace Letterman next year. There was a time that Ferguson, whose show won a Peabody Award in 2009, was considered a strong contender for that job.

But "The Late Late Show" has faded in the ratings, particularly with the arrival of Seth Meyers in February as competition in the same time slot.

"CBS and I are not getting divorced, we are consciously uncoupling," Ferguson said. "But we will still spend holidays together and share custody of the fake horse and robot skeleton, both of whom we love very much."

He told the audience it was his decision to leave, adding, "CBS has been fine with me."

CBS Entertainment Chairwoman Nina Tassler said Ferguson "infused the broadcast with tremendous energy, unique comedy, insightful interviews and some of the most heartfelt monologues seen on television."

He already has a new job lined up, as host of "Celebrity Name Game," a syndicated game show set to debut later this year.

But he joked about his plans with the audience.
David Letterman and Craig Ferguson are bouncing from CBS late nights.
After his stint ends, "I'll go and do something else. Probably, I'm thinking, carpentry. But I haven't made my mind up yet. ... I feel like doing this show for 10 years, that's enough," he said.

Guest LL Cool J told Ferguson that "I hate to see you go."

It's been an unusually busy period of personnel changes in the late-night television arena. Jimmy Fallon took over the "Tonight" show on NBC from Jay Leno in February and was an instant sensation, ascending to the top of the ratings against Letterman and ABC's Jimmy Kimmel. Letterman announced that he would be leaving CBS after more than three decades in late-night TV.

Chelsea Handler also has said she will be leaving her late-night show on E!

CBS said it plans to continue "The Late Late Show" and will be searching for another host. There's another opening at Comedy Central, which is looking to replace "The Colbert Report" when it ends at the end of the year.

Conservatives: That Donald Sterling Dude Is A Democrat!

The First Amendment continues to allow the ignorant to speak. Tell us how you feel about it Mr. Sterling?

That Guy Who Throws Shit To The Wall once again is the gateway to extremism. The conservative agitators have all express outrage along with the liberal agitators over Donald Sterling's outrageous comments about Black people.

But what comes to mind is the fact that for every time a racial event happens or mass killing occurs, the conservative agitators are quick to blame the Democratic Party for this.

Obviously conservatives are generally looked as MOSTLY racist. But sometimes a liberal may say something that cross the line. Liberals are slightly more tolerant of Blacks than conservatives.

Yeah, there are racist Democrats. Obviously a Democrat from West Virginia, Arkansas or Oklahoma will vote for a horse before they vote for Barack Obama.

When Barack Obama was a candidate for president in 2008, he avoided states like Mississippi, Oklahoma, West Virginia and Kentucky. He knew they were going to Hillary Clinton because those states are nearly impossible for a man of color to win. After all he made the comments about "[People being bitter], clinging to guns, religion, [with] antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."

He was so right on that!

The National Screwview Online has made the accusations that the guy's political ties.

Tim Cavanaugh wrote that according to his "sources" Donald Sterling is a Democrat, according to campaign-contribution records. Long before this scandal, Sterling had donated to a few Democrats and Republicans.

Most contributions were local at best. I've tried to link up Newsmeat for his political ties. Unfortunately the website is shut down.

Michael Tomasky of The Daily Beast saw what I seen in this political hot potato. He noted that every freaking time an event would occur with race, it's conservatives quick to pounce on the Democrats and its usually the conservatives to say "oh he's a Democrat".

Right off the bat, he took to the social networks to see how the racist right reacted to it. Tomasky saw that the social networks were full of clucking conservatives challenging me to write about the Donald Sterling situation, or daring me to, or wagering that I would maintain a hypocritical silence in the face of this clear “proof” that Democrats are just as racist as Republicans.

Tomasky wrote that there's amazement to how eagerly the right-wing press has pounced on the “fact” that Sterling is a Democrat. To my knowledge, there is no such established fact at this point. This is based on two political contributions he made many moons ago.

Apparently, when the story broke Saturday morning, everyone in the cyberworld somehow glommed onto a 2011 list published at a site called RealGM that listed the political contributions of NBA owners. This list said Sterling had donated to two Democrats, Gray Davis and Bill Bradley, and that these were long ago, going back to “the early 1990s.”

Tomasky noted that this scandal has taken the heat off the misguided conservative support of that right wing militia rancher Cliven Bundy. After all, they were all in unison of Bundy during his stand off with the Bureau of Land Management and the Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) agency.

Bundy uttered racial comments about The NEGRO and it was leaked to the press over the past week.

It instantly sunk his support among those conservatives such as That Guy Who Helped Obama Win and his allies on Loserville.

Whenever you hear a Republican call the Democratic Party a platform to racism, let them know this!

If the Democrats were so racist, why on earth would they elect a Black man twice to be their nominee for president?

If the Democrats were such racists, why are conservatives so uptight whenever one of their own is caught sending racist emails or telling insensitive jokes about Blacks or Hispanics?

Let them know that the Republican Party isn't racist. But the Republicans has a whole lot of racists in the party!

NY Republican Congressman Arrested!

Congressman Michael Grimm (R-NY) is under federal indictment for corruption.

Republican Michael Grimm of New York is reportedly surrendering to the FBI today.

According to sources, the embattled politico was under investigation for misuse of campaign fundraising.

Grimm represents Staten Island and parts of southern Brooklyn, including the neighborhoods of Bay Ridge, Bensonhurst, Dyker Heights, and Gravesend. Politically, it is the most conservative district in New York City, the only district in the city which leans towards the Republican Party in national elections, and the only district covering part of the city to be represented by a Republican. The district has significant Jewish, Irish-American, Russian-American, and Italian-American populations.

From 2003-2013, the district was located entirely in Brooklyn, and had a majority African-American population. Most of the old 11th is now the 9th District. Prior to 2013, most of the territory currently in the 11th had been the 13th District.

He is a former FBI agent, businessman, attorney, and U.S. Marine, having served in the Persian Gulf War.

In August 2012, the office of the United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York said it was investigating Grimm's 2010 campaign. In November 2012, the House Ethics Committee decided to inquire into the campaign but agreed to "defer consideration" of it at the Department of Justice's request.

In January 2014, the FBI arrested Diana Durand on charges that she had illegally donated more than $10,000 to Grimm's 2010 campaign. Durand allegedly gave the campaign $4,800, the legal limit, but then used straw donors to donate more than $10,000 illegally. The FBI also charged Durand with lying to Federal agents about the matter. Grimm denied any wrongdoing.

The investigation, which originally focused on Grimm's 2010 fundraising, branched out to include Grimm's prior business dealings. On April 25, 2014, Grimm's attorney was advised by the U.S. Attorney's office that his client will be indicted on undetermined federal charges concerning a restaurant he had owned prior to running for Congress.

Earlier this year, Grimm threatened a reporter after an interview went bad. The reporter asked Grimm about his federal investigation and that's when the lawmaker went bonkers. He threatened to toss the reporter over the balcony of the U.S. Capitol.

He would later apologize to the reporter.

He, Congressman Vance McAllister (R-LA), along with former Florida Republican lawmaker Trey Radel may have given the Democrats an opening. The Politico have labeled these lawmakers the Bad Boys of Washington.

Could there be more Republicans under investigation?

This could change the outlook of a very nervous Democratic Party. They may suck right now, but at least they have a plan on how to get Americans back to work. Republicans have nothing. They have more enthusiasm and the ability (for now).

Republicans are slated to take back the U.S. Senate if Democrats fail to turnout for the U.S. Midterms.

Conservative Outrage Over Obama "BOWING"!

President Barack Obama meets a humanoid robot at a technology event in Japan.

For Pete's sake, the conservative outrage meter is so off the scale.

Newsflash: OBAMA IS A 6'2".

The president is taller than most world leaders. But you can't tell that to our conservative agitating friends.

I am getting really tired of these pathetic outrages from conservatives.

Who the fuck cares if President Barack Obama bows?

Who the fuck cares about Obama taking selfies with Vice President Joe Biden, baseball stars or foreign leaders?
The gateway to extremism.
Obviously, the racist right does. Because you find this on Breitfart and That Guy Who Throws Shit To The Wall's website.

The president was in Japan and he was introduced to a humanoid robot. The robot greeted President Obama.

The president was at Miraikan Science Expo in Tokyo, Obama got the chance to meet the latest version of ASIMO, Honda's humanoid robot that can speak and do very lifelike things. Obama and the robot even kicked around a soccer ball together.

Jimmy Kimmel saw how the racist right reacted to the president's bow to a humanoid robot.

He decides to calm the nerves and poke a hole in the outrage.

Kimmel laughed as he showed the headlines about Obama “bowing” to the robot posted on Drudge and Breitbart below, saying, “As if he surrendered his nuclear arsenal to it.”

LA Clippers Players Turn Their Back On Racist Owner!


This scandal has gotten so much attention. All across the nation, people are sounding off about this NBA team owner talking shit about Blacks being at his games. It's almost a damn shame in the age of Obama, we just got through that White extremist killing three in Overland Park, Kansas. The U.S. Supreme Court upholds Michigan's ban on Affirmative Action at institutions.Then we have this jackass rancher from Nevada who was a hero to the racist right spouting off about the NEGRO.

Each incident has shown me and S. Baldwin that our country is still embolden in racism.

I wonder if That Guy Who Helped Obama will run to the defense of this asshole Donald Sterling?
Share photos on twitter with Twitpic
The LA Clippers won't take anymore bullshit from Donald Sterling.

Well Magic Johnson, Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, Labron James, Charles Barkley and even President Barack Obama called for the resignation of Sterling.

The racist right takes to defense of course attacking the president and the NBA for blowing this stuff "outta of proportion".

TMZ Sports released what it said is an April 9, 2014 audio recording of a conversation between Sterling and his girlfriend or former girlfriend, V. Stiviano.

According to TMZ, Sterling and Stiviano argued in regards to a photo Stiviano posted on Instagram in which she posed with Magic Johnson. In the audio recording, Sterling allegedly tells Stiviano: "It bothers me a lot that you want to broadcast that you’re associating with black people."

Clippers president Andy Roesen issued a statement the following day, indicating that his organization was unsure if it was a legitimate and unaltered recording, that the sentiments attributed to Sterling did not reflect Sterling's views, and that the woman on the recording was being sued by the Sterling family and had "told Mr. Sterling that she would 'get even'" with him.

The Los Angeles chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) cancelled its plans for the following month to award Sterling for a second time with its lifetime achievement award.

President Barack Obama characterized the recording attributed to Sterling as "incredibly offensive racist statements". Obama then stated, “When ignorant folks want to advertise their ignorance, you don’t really have to do anything, You just let them talk.”

That's pretty simple of these assholes in the conservative media and that NBA owner. They continue to be ignorant and we just allow them to keep talking. Because if we keep them talking, they'll self-destruct.

Hopefully this geezer gets booted from his team. Because the ways its going, someone got to give. And he will be the one to go!

What A Drag For Accused White Extremist Murderer!

AP Cross 140424 DG 16x9 608 Ex KKK Leader Was Given a New Identity Years Before Shooting

Glenn Miller (aka Frazier Glenn Miller or Glenn Cross) is a crazy ass White extremist. He's accused of murdering three innocent people at two Jewish centers.

Overland Park, Kansas police are trying to piece together the extremist's motives.

It was revealed that the White extremist love the prostitutes. The male prostitutes. Especially Black ones.

This comes as no surprise that the hateful asshole was trolling for the hoes.

ABC News reports that in the course of their investigation, authorities also learned the stunning details of Miller’s arrest a year earlier. Raleigh police officers had caught Miller in  the back seat of a vehicle, in mid-act with a black male prostitute masquerading as a woman.

“It was pretty shocking,” says McCullough, “because of his personal stances that he had taken and what he was now accused on engaging in.”

McCullough says he has read the police report of the incident but declined to comment on the specifics. “I would rather not go into the details,” he said. “They’re rather salacious. I think the facts speak for themselves and people can draw their own conclusions about how incongruous that is.”

Miller was not charged in connection with the prostitution arrest and no public record of the incident could be located. But in a recorded phone call with the Southern Poverty Law Center last fall, Miller claimed that he had lured the prostitute to the meeting with the intention of beating him.

Eventually, McCullough, the federal prosecutor, would approve a plea deal with Miller recommending a five-year prison sentence in exchange for his cooperation and testimony against his former compatriots. He would serve less than three years of that sentence at a prison in western New York.

“I am not certain that we got 100 percent of what we wanted,” McCullough told WTVD. “He did testify in a couple of cases here in the eastern part of the state, or agreed to testify where the people plead guilty knowing he was going to testify.”

In 1998, Miller was a key witness in a high-profile federal trial that charged more than a dozen white nationalists in an alleged conspiracy to levy war against the United States government. The Department of Justice had called it Operation Clean Sweep. Miller testified that he had received two payments totaling $200,000 from a leader of  the alleged conspiracy, but in the end all of those accused were acquitted and, incredibly, one of the jurors later married one of the defendants.

“His testimony was extremely weak,” says Leonard Zeskind, who tracked Miller’s activities in the 1980′s as research director for the Center for the Democratic Renewal, a civil rights group fighting Klan activities.

“I believe that Miller was essentially playing a game with the feds. And I don’t think he had any intention of becoming a good witness. The guy was a stone-to-the-bone Nazi,” Zeskind says. “He never gave that up. I am on the record as saying the man should have died in prison.”

But McCullough says that nothing would have changed what happened last week in Kansas. Even if he had refused to deal with Miller back in 1987, he would have spent no more than fifteen years in prison.

“We made the deal that we could make at the time and whether it’s right or wrong, it’s really kind of immaterial at this point,” McCullough says. “Human beings are unpredictable. I don’t think there is anybody who could know what he was capable of doing,” he said of the shootings in Kansas. “I certainly never saw that in his personality.  He was a blowhard who liked to be in front of a crowd. He liked to whip the crowd up and get the emotions running high.”

Very little is known of the years Miller spent in Iowa and Nebraska living as Frazier Glenn Cross.

“He asked for protection from both the White Patriot Party people and blacks in prison because he had alienated both groups,” says McCullough.  ”Obviously once he served his sentence he couldn’t go back to where his old compatriots were because he would be at risk.  So we had to put him somewhere safe.”

It’s clear that Cross eventually discarded his assumed identity provided by the federal government and resumed his life as the belligerent, unapologetic white supremacist, Frazier Glenn Miller.

The Racism and Bigotry of LA Clippers Donald Sterling- SMH!







I can't let this one pass!

My take:

This guy is absolutely racist and bigoted, yet he had a Black girlfriend.  Racist white men want to have their cake and eat it too.  They also insist Black women to assimilate to their white male supremacist culture. That won't work because some Black women aren't giving up Blackness and Black culture. At the same time, those men denigrate Black men and women, telling them that they're "inferior" and have no rights bound to respect.

I wish some of my Black sisters in the "BWE" movment talk about this one.  How can one be with a man that is a racist and have one's sanity intact?  

That's white male privilege at work.  Entitled to have women of all races and be racist and hateful at the same time.  That proves Kristen Maye's and many other Black womens' viewpoint about racism in interracial relationships.  That painful history of Whites and Blacks along with Whites not giving up their "White Privilege" status and contemporary racism.
