ΣΑΕ Frat Mom: _______ , _______ , ______ And Just Another ________!

It's nothing but a good NIGGER time...

Someone really hates ΣΑΕ (Sigma Alpha Epsilom). The president of the Sooners, David Boren kicked the assholes out of their fraternity, knocked them out of their home and told them all to be prepared to face the consequences.

Me and S. Baldwin have covered this controversy in Norman. The University of Oklahoma is under fire. Their frat boys are making a total embarrassment of their campus.  Now more videos unearthed more idiocy.

Beauton Gilbow is a ΣΑΕ "Mom" and in a social media video she appears to say NIGGER more than her fair share of times. And it appears that she may be intoxicated. But nonetheless, it was said and she got fired out the cannon. She condemned the frat boys and tearfully apologized for her actions.

The New York Daily News ragged that Gilbow was NIGGER chanting while the frat boys were listening to Think It's A Game artist Trinidad James. It was "All Gold Everything".

OUSeal.pngThe video kind of put the brakes on some of ΣΑΕ's remorseful members aiding her in her sudden loss of job.

The ΣΑΕ's Black cook had to suffer. The man named "Howard" was the cook for the frat boys.

He was totally devastated by this news. Especially for the fact that some of his "family" were so boldly acting like this.

With this controversy surfacing the damages became apparent when Boren kicked everyone off the campus, he meant everyone. The cook is out of a job. Some of the remorseful members created a GoFundMe page to help him gain a job and financial assistance.

These leaks of videos comes like drips. The online activism from Anonymous comes to mind. It has all the traces of it. But then it could be a disgruntled (likely ΣΑΕ)  member of the frat.

And to make this worse, a college football team with strong recognition is being passed off.

Most of them football standouts are Black and they're passing on the Sooners.



That pass on could hurt the campus. Those standouts are the money makers. The NCAA could put the hammer on the football and basketball teams. Obviously these events bring in major dollars.

Of course, the hockey, lacrosse, baseball and wrestling suffer. Their marching band suffers.

Mary Fallin, the current Republican governor of Oklahoma and U.S. Senator James Lankford (R-OK) were shocked and told the junk food media that "racism" has no place in Oklahoma.

“The racist words chanted by the students in this video do not represent OU values or Oklahoma values. As the outrage among Oklahomans has demonstrated, we are a state that does not tolerate that kind of disrespectful behavior. I appreciate President Boren as well as OU’s faculty, staff and students for quickly condemning these hurtful words and demonstrating the true nature of our Oklahoma community, which is diverse, compassionate and respectful," said Governor Mary Fallin.

Lankford said “The hateful video of some fraternity students that surfaced over the weekend is disgusting and does not reflect the values of the state of Oklahoma. This is not who we are. We are a state that embraces cultural and ethnic diversity at every level. We must clearly speak out against this type of bigotry. Our state has made significant strides since the Tulsa race riots and the days when Clara Luper led our state out of ignorance; we must continue that progress.”

No sign of comment from Senator Jim Inhofe (R-OK). He's too busy bringing snowballs to the Senate floor to deny climate change.

Wink and nod....

These Republicans support this nonsense. It looks good to be on camera condemning racism. Because it's in their backyard. When the cameras are not running, I bet you that these Republican elected leaders are chanting "Ol they'll never be a NIGGER!"

Republicans are in need of some major improvement.

When it comes to race, the Republicans are too busy  trying to undermining the first Black president and the millions of people of color.

Fallin is one of many supporters of the controversial lawsuit trying to gut the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare). She signed on to suing the government over the president's executive order to ease restrictions on young undocumented immigrants.

Lankford was one of the 47 senators who supported Stallmigo Tom Cotton's (R-AR) threatening letter to Iran.

The White House weigh in on the controversy. President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden said that OU president Boren's actions were appropriate. This is a reminder that the long road ahead in equal rights for all Americans.

Iran: Netanyahu And The Republicans Are __________ The Peace Deal!

Hassan Rouhani.jpg
Iranian president Hassan Rouhani.
God damn it. I am so tired of Republicans and their obstruction. Now they're playing this "who's got the bigger balls" debate. They undermine the president by kissing the ass of a foreign leader. Now they threaten to sabotage historical peace talks to disarming Iran.

The same assholes who bitched about President Barack Obama winning a Nobel Peace Prize are now bitching about this proposal. Even though it's time to move pass these silly feuds with Iran and Cuba, the Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Republican majority continue to fuck up the world, because of their utter hatred of the leaders of these countries. The Republicans don't give two fucks about these peace talks.

Seem like the terms of endearment comes with a price. Some are claiming that the Senators who signed it may have violated the law.

Republican senators mail the letter to Tehran. They call for no negotiations. They call for more sanctions and possible action if Iran continues on. They tell Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and President Hassan Rouhan that any deal with the U.S. can be undone with the next president or Congress. They also claim that the missile will be heading their way if they try anything funny.

We finally introduce the controversial Arkansas Republican senator Tom Cotton to the fold.

He along with Majority Leader Mitch The Turtle (R-KY), fellow Stallmigos Ted Cruz (R-TX), Joni Ernst (R-IA) Mike Lee (R-UT), Rand Paul (R-KY), Tim Scott (R-SC), Marco Rubio (R-FL), David Purdue (R-GA), Thom Tillis (R-NC) and numerous others signed up to this bullshit.

These assholes are defying years of delicate talks. For what reason?

To undermine the president.

Forty-seven Republicans on Sunday wrote directly to Tehran to suggest that any nuclear deal with the Obama administration would not be constitutionally binding because a future president or Congress could take steps to revoke it.

The White House blasted the Republicans. Vice President Joe Biden called the move an unprecedented affront "designed to undercut a sitting president."

CNN reports that President Barack Obama slammed Republican senators who penned a letter attempting to warn Iran that any pending nuclear agreement will face their scrutiny, claiming they were aligning themselves with Iranian "hard-liners."

"I think it's somewhat ironic to see some members for Congress wanting to make common cause with the hard-liners in Iran. It's an unusual coalition," Obama said Monday ahead of a meeting with European Council President Donald Tusk.

"I think what we're going to focus on right now is actually seeing whether we're going to get a deal or not. Once we do, if we do, we'll be able to make the case to the American people, and I'm confident we'll be able to implement it," Obama said.

Stallmigo Tom Cotton's (R-AR) stunt may actually help move talks.
The Iranian foreign minister Dr. Javad Zarif dismissed their letter as "propaganda" and told the Republicans to actually read the U.S. Constitution before they make these irrational protocols.

The Iran Primer asked the foreign minister. Zarif expressed astonishment that some members of US Congress find it appropriate to write to leaders of another country against their own President and administration. He pointed out that from reading the open letter, it seems that the authors not only do not understand international law, but are not fully cognizant of the nuances of their own Constitution when it comes to presidential powers in the conduct of foreign policy.

Foreign Minister Zarif added that “I should bring one important point to the attention of the authors and that is, the world is not the United States, and the conduct of inter-state relations is governed by international law, and not by US domestic law. The authors may not fully understand that in international law, governments represent the entirety of their respective states, are responsible for the conduct of foreign affairs, are required to fulfil the obligations they undertake with other states and may not invoke their internal law as justification for failure to perform their international obligations.”

The Republicans are forever stuck on stupid. By electing these idiots to the Congress, we'll see President Barack Obama's final years marred by the utter stupidity of Republicans.

Jussie Smollett: Yeah, I'm Proud [Being Gay] In Real Life Too...

Jussie Smollett is making the news clear about his personal life.

The Fox hit drama Empire keeps pulling in.

Everybody love some Cookie. The character is played by Taraj P. Henson. Her and her estrange husband Lucious Lyon are co owners of Empire Entertainment. Cookie spent time in the iron college and she came out swinging. She became the breakout character of the show. Cookie is trying to get back with Lucious and bring the family back together. She is also a motivator. She is the woman who gets what she wants whenever she wants.

Lucious is dealing with the ALS disease that may end his life. He's trying to figure out who's capable of running his business in the likelihood he passes. He has three sons, Andre, Jamal and Hakeem. Lucious is caught between loving his fiance Anika and his ex-wife Cookie. He's also competing with his former mentor in this battle for success. Lucious is played by Terrance Howard.

Andre is the oldest son. He's ruthless, cunning and just about as cutthroat as his father. But deep within Andre is the fact he is bipolar. Lucious doesn't approve of his marriage to a White woman. Andre struggles with resentment towards his talented brothers. He felt that during his younger days, he lost out the childhood trying to help Jamal and Hakeem through their days. Trai Byers plays Andre.

Hakeem is the youngest. He's a rapper and the hard head of the family. He's spoiled. He's apparently the favorite son of Lucious. He is a player of sorts. He's trying to bound with his mother Cookie. While being the famed-obsessed son, Hakeem is the most controversial of the group. He went off on paparazzi and called out President Barack Obama. He is played by Bryshere Gray.
Fox's breakout series Empire broke records. This is the highest watched series. Black viewers make up 80% of the viewing audience.
The middle child is Jamal. Jamal was in the beginning a closeted gay singer. But in some episodes he came out and made Lucious upset. Jamal is the father of a daughter and is struggling to find himself in a world where gay Black singers are often ridiculed. Cookie loves Jamal and she is proud he came out despite Lucious threatening to end ties with him. The irony of this is that art intimidates life.

Jamal is played by Jussie Smollett, a famed actor and singer. He and his siblings are professional actors.

Today, the news broke that Jussie acknowledged his sexuality.

Smollett acknowledged that he's gay. And he's proud of that. It kind of forced out when Malik Yoba, told the junk food media that Jussie is "openly gay" and his passionate about LGBT rights.

"Empire" star Jussie Smollett opened up about his sexuality for the first time in an intimate interview with Ellen DeGeneres.

Interestingly, the 31-year-old actor opted to arrange a backstage chat with DeGeneres after his official appearance on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," which airs March 9, to speak about the subject. However, he stopped short of using the terms "gay" and "bisexual" in the clip.

"It was really important to me to make sure that it got across that there is no closet," he said. "There’s never been a closet that I’ve been in. I don’t own a closet, I got a dresser, but I don’t have a closet, but I have a home and that is my responsibility to protect that home."

He then quipped, "My mama knows, my mama likes me a lot and yes, I take her to 'The Sound of Music' sing-along every single year."

"Empire" has already received heaps of praise for its gay-inclusive plot. On the smash Fox series, Smollett plays Jamal Lyon, an openly gay singer-songwriter who is the ex-boyfriend of Michael Sanchez (Rafael de La Fuente).

In his "Ellen" appearance, Smollett revealed that he landed his "Empire" audition after sending co-creator Lee Daniels a private message on Instagram. He was called back for seven auditions before he got the role.

Smollett also signed a deal with Sony Urban this year.

Biggie: The Real King of New York!

The legend Biggie Smalls

Today marks another grave milestone in American music.

On March 9, 1997, a rap legend died. The legendary Notorious B.I.G. was gunned down in Los Angeles after attending a party for Vibe Magazine. The 25 year old rapper's death still remains a mystery to this day.

I woke up to hearing the news. My mom told us that this rapper named Biggie was shot. I was shocked by this. We all knew this day was coming. I was just listening to the single "Notorious Thugs" on the radio two days ago and I had used the cassette tape to record it.

Never in my day, that rap lost two legends in a six month period.

If you're a real fan of hip-hop, you would know Biggie Smalls (aka Frank White).

The Brooklyn MC who is the real king of New York hip-hop.

No one can take that. Not even Nas or Jay-Z.

Wallace was raised in the Brooklyn borough of New York City. When he released his debut album Ready to Die in 1994, he became a central figure in the East Coast hip hop scene and increased New York's visibility in the genre at a time when West Coast hip hop was dominant in the mainstream.

The following year, Wallace led his childhood friends to chart success through his protégé group, Junior M.A.F.I.A. While recording his second album, Wallace was heavily involved in the growing East Coast/West Coast hip hop feud.

Before the release of his Life After Death album, got booed by some West Coast rappers at the Soul Train Awards after presenting an award.

During the night, he was with his entourage attending a Vibe Magazine party. Then when he was leaving for his hotel, a vehicle pulls up and opens fire on him. He was hit four times. Out of three bullets one managed to hit the vitals. He was rushed to the hospital and died that night.

That led to speculation that Big Suge ordered a hit on him in retaliation. There are some who believed that Tupac Shakur's murder was orchestrated by Biggie and Sean "Diddy" Combs.

Biggie and Shakur's death led to the decline of quality hip-hop. Although this decline in music still exist, many rappers dedicate their legacies to them.

Many in the law enforcement industry feels that hip-hop's no snitching philosophy doomed their chances to solve these mysteries.

But still we here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to family of the Notorious B.I.G.

Also R.I.P. to Christopher Rios (aka Big Pun), Chad Butler (aka Pimp C), Lisa Lopes (aka Left-Eye), Aaliyah Houghton, Tupac Shakur (aka Makaveli), Eric Wright (aka Eazy-E), Jason Mizell (aka Jam Master Jay), James Adarryl Tapp (aka Soulja Slim), Russell Jones (aka Ol' Dirty Bastard), DeShaun Holton (aka Proof) and every rapper or R & B singer who passed away.

BIGGIE: WE MISS YA!

ΣΑΕ Frat Boys: They'll Never Be A ___________ At Our ___________!

They'll never be a fraternity that chants racism at the Sooner Nation. The University of Oklahoma puts the brakes on frat boys and their chapter.

Okie Dokie! Here's a controversy riding the horse. The University of Oklahoma had to do some apologizing for one of its fraternities and their "epic fail".

Sigma Alpha Epsilon got a major pull out! The Sooners had to pull the plug on the fraternity after it was revealed a disturbing video of White frat boys shouting and jigging on NIGGERS.

The frat boys' freedom of speech was captured on camera phone. They were chanting, "They'll Never Be A NIGGER here at ΣΑΕ (Sigma Alpha Epsilon)".

They'll never be a NIGGER in ΣΑΕ (clap your hands)

They'll never be a NIGGER in ΣΑΕ (clap your hands)

They'll never be a NIGGER

They'll never be a NIGGER

They'll never be a NIGGER in ΣΑΕ

You can hang him from a tree, but he can never sign with me

They'll never be a NIGGER in ΣΑΕ!

The national organization of Sigma Alpha Epsilon closed the Oklahoma Kappa chapter at the University of Oklahoma after a video surfaced showing members singing a racist, unsanctioned chant. The students were boisterously singing and taking the NIGGER to the woodshed.

They parodied the popular children's song, "If You're Happy and You Know It."
The Sooners put protest in silence.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon quickly suspended the charter of the involved chapter and suspended it's members on Sunday, March 8, 2015.

The University of Oklahoma president, David Boren, subsequently evicted the fraternity members, leaving until the following midnight, on Monday, March 9 for all members to vacate the fraternity's campus dwellings.

This is the conservative movement in full swing. That's why it's dubbed the racist right.

This is privileged White people telling America, that NIGGERS have no place in college or America.

Conservative Outrage Over NY Times Burning The Bush Out!

Former president George W. Bush was in Selma for historic event. The racist right upset that he was brush out. They're upset that Bush and President Barack Obama interacted with Rev. Perm.


They're outraged because the New York Times couldn't fit the former in.

George W. Bush, former first lady Laura and Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA, Majority Leader) were in attendance, Of course there lawmakers  and agitators were there. The most notable were Attorney General Eric Holder, Rev. Perm, Rep. John Lewis (D-GA), Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) and Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ).

What got the folks over at FalseVolt, Breitfart, Newsclusters and The Daily Nothing pissed off was the "deliberate" brush out of Bush and McCarthy.

The Times was trying bias to the former and Majority Leader.

Now you know how conservatives look at the media. They would take a foreign source that got its source from an anonymous foreign source over American outlets.

You see how reactionary these people are.

Bush isn't the president. Barack Obama is. They're sworn enemy.

The complaint, courtesy of The Daily Nothing. The Selma March included the president, Rev. Perm, Holder but missing from the photo, though only a few people down to the right, were former President George W. Bush and his wife Laura. The Times also focused quite a bit of their story on the shooting death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, even though the local and federal investigations into that event found race had zero role in it and they refused to bring charges.

For their front page, the Times curiously chose a picture that did not show the entire front line of marchers, choosing instead to leave the Bushes on the cutting room floor.

Anyway, I am not wasting too much time covering this. These agitators can't get over the fact that President Barack Obama is in the White House. They hate the fact he's even in there.

It's about RACE not about politics.
The First Family and Rep. John Lewis (D-GA) got the front. Conservatives outraged that G.W. Bush got the back.
Republicans and their racist right allies are wasted space in America. Eventually that will be phased out.

The younger generation are tolerant of LGBT, interracial marriage, religious freedom, marijuana legalization and the safety net.

The older generation is what Republicans relish on. They want more looser gun laws, restrictive voting rights, restrictions on women's rights, restrictions on immigration and religious intolerance.

This is why the world should never take American conservatives seriously. They too damn immature.

They can't understand that the media is free. The lefties hate how Loserville operates. But no one is trying to silence them. You have the right to change the channel, avoid picking up the paper, never click on the link or visiting the blog. You have a freaking choice.

Why get upset over a decision you decided to take consideration into?

It's click bait, America.

UNAPOLOGETIC: TN State Representative Sheila Butt's Racist Comments on Facebook

UNAPOLOGETIC

                                                    This is TN State Rep Sheila Butt
                                                     Look beyond the smile, people!


State Rep. Sheila Butt wrote a Facebook post in January that critics thought painted her as a racist, if taken at face value.
Any elected leader who believes this country needs an “NAAWP” deservedly would face scorn and ridicule. She never would be taken seriously again for the rest of her political career and likely have to go home in shame.
There’s just one problem. No one seems to hear what Butt is telling them.
The Republican from Columbia said she did not mean “National Association for the Advancement of White People,” as her critics charge. They thought she was playing off “National Association for the Advancement of Colored People,” or “NAACP.”
In January, Butt responded to a social media comment on Islamophobia by writing, “It is time for a Council on Christian Relations and an NAAWP in the Country.”
The Republican from Columbia, 63, said she meant “National Association for the Advancement of Western Principles,” and she really doesn’t care whether critics believe her or not.
“I know what I was writing,” Butt said as I spent a morning and afternoon with her at the State Capitol last week.”I am not going to apologize for something that I did not mean. It’s not going to happen.”
Butt describes herself as a Christian, conservative woman, in that order. The second-term legislator said she’s the most non-judgmental person you would ever meet. Furthermore, she said she does not rate people by race, creed or color. And she’s offended by anyone who thinks otherwise.

Here's more racism from Ms. Butt:



My take:  As you and I can see, Right wing racism is in your face in 2015. This occur in less than one month after the racially and religious motivated killing of a Muslim family in Chapel Hill, N.C.  Islamophobia is at an all-time high.  Keep it up, conservatives!

Protests After Madison Police Shot And Kill Unarmed Man!


The death of a Madison man has sparked outrage. Once again an unarmed man was killed by police after a confrontation. The police officer who shot him is a veteran. He is on paid administrative leave which is standard procedure. He's getting his union rep, his lawyer, and his psychologist.

We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to the family of Tony Robinson. He was the suspect that was unarmed.

These events call for more training, the use of body cameras and the potential usage of non lethal weapons in the case of individuals who are low level criminals. Those who the law enforcement arrest for minor offenses (i.e. marijuana possession, jaywalking, soliciting, prostitution, traffic citations and unpaid fines).

The AP reports that the fatal shooting of an unarmed black 19-year-old by a white police officer, who authorities say fired after he was assaulted, prompted protesters Saturday to take to the college town's streets with chants of "Black Lives Matter." The city's police chief said he understood the anger, assuring demonstrators his department would defend their rights as he implored the community to act with restraint.

Tony Robinson died Friday night after being shot in his apartment following a confrontation with Officer Matt Kenny, who had forced his way inside after hearing a disturbance while responding to a call, authorities and neighbors said.

Madison Police Chief Mike Koval said Kenny was injured, but didn't provide details. It wasn't clear whether Robinson, who died at a hospital, was alone.

"He was unarmed. That's going to make this all the more complicated for the investigators, for the public to accept," Koval said of Robinson. The department said Kenny would not have been wearing a body camera.

Several dozen protesters who gathered outside the police department Saturday afternoon held signs and chanted "Black Lives Matter" — a slogan adopted by activists and protesters nationwide after recent officer-involved deaths of unarmed blacks — before walking toward the neighborhood where the shooting took place.

The shooting came days after the U.S. Justice Department said it would not issue civil rights charges against Darren Wilson, the white former Ferguson, Missouri, officer who fatally shot 18-year-old Michael Brown, who was black and unarmed, after a struggle in the street last August.
The racist right already trashing the name. 
Federal officials did however find patterns of racial profiling, bigotry and profit-driven law enforcement in the St. Louis suburb, which saw spates of sometimes-violent protests in the wake of the shooting and a grand jury's decision not to charge Wilson.

Other high-profile deaths of black suspects at the hands of police officers have prompted nationwide protests, including that of Eric Garner, who died in July after New York City officers put him in a chokehold and a video showed him repeatedly saying, "I can't breathe." A Cleveland police officer in November fatally shot 12-year-old Tamir Rice, who had been pointing a pellet gun at a playground. A Milwaukee police officer who fatally shot Dontre Hamilton last April was found to have acted in self-defense, but was fired for ignoring department policy regarding mental illness.

Koval struck a conciliatory tone Saturday while addressing the potential for more protests in Madison, saying he understood the community's distrust after "this tragic death."

"For those who do want to take to the street and protest," Koval said, his department would be there to "defend, facilitate, foster those First Amendment rights of assembly and freedom of speech." The promise echoed as a stark contrast to Ferguson, where an aggressive police response to protesters after Brown's death drew worldwide attention.

Koval also asked protesters to follow what he said was the lead of Robinson's family in asking for "nondestructive" demonstrations.

The chief said he had gone to Robinson's mother's house overnight and spoken with his grandparents and expressed sympathy to his family Saturday, saying, "19 years old is too young."

Family members at community meeting later read a statement prepared by Robinson's mother, Andrea Irwin.

Matt Kenny, the officer on paid leave.
"I can't even compute what has happened," Irwin's statement said. "I haven't even had a chance to see his body."

Koval said Kenny, a more than 12-year veteran of the Madison department, also shot and killed a suspect in 2007, but was cleared of wrongdoing because it was a "suicide by cop-type" situation. In that shooting, Kenny responded to a 911 call of a man with a gun and shot the man twice after police said he pointed the gun at officers. It turned out to be a pellet gun.

A picture of Kenny on the Madison department's website shows him with a police horse he trains, alongside a short first-person bio in which he says he served nine years in the U.S. Coast Guard before joining the department.

Kenny has been placed on administrative leave pending results of an investigation by the state's Division of Criminal Investigation.

A 2014 Wisconsin law requires police departments to have outside agencies investigate officer-involved deaths after three high-profile incidents within a decade — including one in Madison — didn't result in criminal charges, raising questions from the victims' families about the integrity of investigations.

Madison, about 80 miles west of Milwaukee, is the state capital and home to the University of Wisconsin's flagship campus. About 7 percent of the city's 243,000 residents are black. Neighbors said Robinson's apartment is in a two-story gray house on Williamson Street, known to many as Willy Street.

Chief Koval said police responded to a call about 6:30 p.m. Friday of a person jumping into traffic. A second call to police said the man was "responsible for a battery," Koval said.

Kenny went to an apartment and forced his way inside after hearing a disturbance. Koval said the officer fired after being assaulted by Robinson; Koval said he couldn't say how many shots were fired because it is part of the investigation.

The agitators of the racist right will use this.
One of Robinson's neighbors, Grant Zimmerman, said Robinson would run between his apartment and his roommate's mother's house across the street "all the time, even in the middle of traffic."

Wisconsin's online courts database shows that Robinson, a 2014 graduate of Sun Prairie High School, pleaded guilty to felony armed robbery in October and was sentenced in December to three years' probation. A police report said he was among four teenagers arrested in a home invasion in which the suspects were seen entering an apartment building with a long gun. They ran with electronics and other property and three of the four were captured. A shotgun and a "facsimile" handgun were recovered, according to the report.


Koval declined to discuss Robinson's background Saturday, saying he thought it was inappropriate.

"I'm not here to do a character workup on someone who lost his life less than 24 hours ago," Koval said.

A neighbor, Doris King, told the Wisconsin State Journal she asked Robinson about his involvement in the robbery because it seemed out of character for him.

"He felt he was under a lot of pressure from the others to do what he did," she told the newspaper. "He told me he would never do anything like that again."

Williamson Street appeared quiet Saturday evening. At least one Madison Police officer stood in front of the building where the shooting took place.

Conservative Outrage Over Obama's Speech In Selma!



The Craigslist of conservative agitation spotlights The Weekly Standard article detailing President Barack Obama's speech in Selma, Alabama. He and the First Family are in the Alabama town showing solidarity. The 50th Anniversary of Bloody Sunday is being held and many civil rights leaders, Rep. John Lewis (D-GA) and outgoing Attorney General Eric Holder are there.

The outrage meter comes from the big bold title "We're the slaves who built (sic) White House".

You got to admit that a historical event is now turned into a partisan escapade. The racist right goes right to town to claim that the president is a racist. The president doesn't love America. Blah, blah, blah, blah!

Good thing he doesn't care what the carnival barkers think of him?

The words in Obama's commencement of that horrible day in American history has driven the racist right crazy.

As explained in the 2012 post "Cut The Bullshit: You Conservatives Need Obama To Sell Your Stupid Books", this agitator relies on racial stories. Without them, he would just be a minor player in the political field. 

Most of the news stories that are linked through this website attracts some of the most extreme members of society.

No matter how the story is found, his imprint makes a buzz worthy story. He takes pride in his work.

Despite many who feel his impact isn't going to sway any potential election, this agitator ignores his critics and keeps his fingers crossed. The agitator is hoping he'll activate his infamous siren for a juicy scandal involving the president. 

This website openly endorses stories that appeal to White supremacists, radical Christian fundamentalists, and ill-informed conservatives who all have a bone to pick against Obama. Those ill-informed conservatives are usually the birthers who refuse to believe the president's citizenship or hostile conservatives who believe Obama is a Communist.

Some conservatives think the president is an idiot. Of course, these are the people who couldn't finish a complete sentence. Conservatives can thank the Craigslist of conservative agitation when he finds pictures of President Barack Obama and use them in negative light.

Read some of the comment section online. Anything that is linked through this website usually has a word vomit that involves Obama. 

Notice that idiot can't even post a complete sentence... That's how misleading this asshole is!

Yeah, it's true. Slaves did build the White House and the U.S. Capitol. 

And voting rights is extremely important. The Republicans are trying to gut voting rights so they can build the last dynasty of White extremism. The very same extremists who flood comment sections (with hate in their hearts) in protest of civil rights, gay rights, immigrant rights and religious freedom.

About the Selma march:

Wikipedia puts it in simple words.

In the summer of 1964, a sweeping injunction issued by local Judge James Hare barred any gathering of three or more people under sponsorship of SNCC, SCLC, or DCVL, or with the involvement of 41 named civil rights leaders. This injunction temporarily halted civil rights activity until Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. defied it by speaking at Brown Chapel on January 2, 1965. He had been invited by local leaders.

Beginning in January 1965, SCLC and SNCC initiated a revived Voting Rights Campaign designed to focus national attention on the systematic denial of black voting rights in Alabama, and particularly Selma. Blacks had followed a campaign to register, thwarted by subjective tests administered by white registrars. More than 3,000 African Americans had been arrested, there was police violence against them, and economic retaliation. Jimmie Lee Jackson was killed in a cafe in nearby Marion after state police broke up a peaceful protest in the town. He was unarmed.

Activists planned a larger, more public march, from Selma to the state capital of Montgomery, to publicize their cause. It was initiated and organized by SCLC's Director of Direct Action, James Bevel. This march represented one of the political and emotional peaks of the modern civil rights movement. On March 7, 1965, approximately 600 civil rights marchers departed Selma on U.S. Highway 80, heading east to the capital. After they passed over the crest of the Edmund Pettus Bridge and left the boundaries of the city six blocks away, they were confronted by state troopers and county sheriff's deputies, who attacked them using tear gas and billy clubs, and drove them back to Selma. Because of the brutal attacks, this became known as "Bloody Sunday." It was covered by national press and television news, reaching many American and international homes.

Two days after the first march, on March 9, 1965, Martin Luther King, Jr. led a symbolic march to the bridge. By then local activists and residents had been joined by hundreds of protesters from across the country, including numerous clergy and nuns. Whites made up one-third of the marchers. That day King pulled the marchers back from confrontation with troops. But, that night white minister James Reeb from Boston was attacked and killed by white attackers in Selma.

King and other civil rights leaders filed to get court protection for a third, larger-scale march from Selma to Montgomery, the state capital. Frank Minis Johnson, Jr., the Federal District Court Judge for the area, decided in favor of the demonstrators, saying:

The law is clear that the right to petition one's government for the redress of grievances may be exercised in large groups...and these rights may be exercised by marching, even along public highways.

—Frank Johnson

On March 21, 1965, a Sunday, approximately 3,200 marchers departed for Montgomery. Marching in the front row, with King, were Rev. Ralph Abernathy and Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel. They walked 12 miles per day, and slept in nearby fields. The federal government provided protection by military troops. Thousands of people joined them along the way. By the time the marchers reached the capitol four days later on March 25, their strength had swelled to around 25,000 people. Their moral campaign had attracted thousands more people from across the country.

The events at Selma helped increase public support for the cause; later that year the U.S. Congress passed the Voting Rights Act of 1965, an effort whose bill was introduced, supported and signed by President Lyndon B. Johnson. It provided for federal oversight and enforcement of voting rights for all citizens in state or jurisdictions where patterns of under-representation showed discrimination against certain populations, historically ethnic minorities.

Holder: I'm Seriously Thinking About "Dismantling" The Ferguson Police!



The outgoing Attorney General of the United States Eric Holder wanted to go even further in this discussion. He's threatening to use all his powers to dismantle the controversial Ferguson police department.

Holder said, "If that's what's necessary, we're prepared to do that."

Civil rights lawyers have previously said the county could absorb the functions of the Ferguson Police Department.

The Justice Department issued a report this week that found that police in Ferguson overwhelmingly arrested and issued traffic citations to black residents, creating a "toxic" environment with its policing practices.

The police also faced heavy scrutiny after it was revealed that some of its officers traded racial jokes about Black people and the president.

The officer who shot and killed Michael Brown was not indicted sparking months of unrest in the metro St. Louis area. It became a political firestorm with the agitators favoring the verdict and others finding it a travesty of justice.

President Barack Obama was astonished by the report released by the Department of Justice. He believes that the systematic practices are not just done in small towns like Ferguson but others.

Ferguson city officials will meet with the Justice Department in about two weeks to begin negotiating an agreement on reforms, Ferguson Mayor James Knowles said.

If the two parties cannot reach a consensus, the Justice Department can sue and force reform.

Knowles said on Friday that the city would not settle with the Justice Department if the negotiations do not lead to "mutual satisfaction."

"There are a lot of things in that report that are very troubling and need to be addressed, but there are also things that are an overreach," Knowles said.

GOP Leaders Skip Selma!

Today is the 50th Anniversary of the Bloody Sunday march in Selma.

The only Republican who is attending is former president George W. Bush. The elected Republicans House Weeper John Boehner (R-OH), Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), Whip Steve Scalise (R-LA), Senate Majority Leader Mitch The Turtle (R-KY) and Pro Tempe Orin Hatch (R-UT) are skipping the event.

Even the insurgent Black Republican lawmakers Rep. Mia Love (R-UT), Rep. Will Hurd (R-TX) and  Senator Tim Scott (R-SC) refuse to attend.

They're too busy unzipping their pants and letting Benjamin Netanyahu plow his dick in their asses.

They probably planning an attack ad to claim that the president has more time to attend a rally that involves him apologizing for America rather than standing with leaders in France during the Charlie Hebdo terrorist attack.

Top Republican leaders on Capitol Hill won't join the largest bipartisan congressional delegation ever in Selma, Alabama, this weekend to mark the 50th anniversary of the Bloody Sunday civil rights march.

President Barack Obama, along with his wife and daughters, will be in Selma on Saturday's anniversary, as will former President George W. Bush and First Lady Laura Bush.

It's worth noting that not all top Democrats are planning to be in Selma either.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi is going, according to her spokesman, and Minority Whip Steny Hoyer and Caucus Chair Xavier Becerra will also be there, said Rep. John Lewis, the Georgia Democrat who was a leader of the Bloody Sunday march and is heading up the congressional delegation. South Carolina Rep. Jim Clyburn, the No. 3 House Democrat, is also going.

But Sen Minority Leader Harry Reid is not going as he recovers from eye surgery, his office said. The second and third ranking Senate Democrats -- Dick Durbin of Illinois and Chuck Schumer of New York -- also won't attend, according to their spokesmen.

On Wednesday, Lewis told CNN 96 members were expected on the chartered flight to Selma and some 15 to 20 more were planning to meet up in Birmingham and Selma, calling it "the largest group ever."

At least two dozen Republicans were expected to be part of that group, according to a congressional staffer.

Asked if he was disappointed more Republicans weren't making the trip, Lewis said, "no, we continue to work and continue to build, we cannot become disappointed."

He said it "certainly" would be helpful to have leaders there to further the discussion on the Democrats' efforts to push for voting protections.

"We will not give up on anyone," Lewis said.

Top House leaders have gone to the annual event before. McCarthy traveled to Selma in 2012 when he was the No. 3 House Republican and then-Majority Leader Eric Cantor attended in 2013. Cantor, who had been a key Republican supporter of efforts to update the Voting Rights Act in the last Congress, lost his primary in 2014.

CNN reports that on the same day last month that the House voted to approve a congressional gold medal for Selma marchers, Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R-Wisc.) and Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich.), both members of the House Judiciary Committee, introduced the Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2015, a bill aimed at updating and strengthening the law.

In 2013, the Supreme Court overturned a key provision of the Voting Rights Act that required certain states with a history of racial discrimination at the polls to "pre-clear" any changes to the law with the federal government before implementing them.

But there is no indication that House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) plans to take up the legislation to update the law. At a Christian Science Monitor breakfast in January, he said he believed the Voting Rights Act was sufficient as it stands.

"We have continued to study this issue, but to this point, we have not seen a process forward that is necessary to protect people, because we think the Voting Rights Act is providing substantial protection in this area right now," Goodlatte said.

Stewart noted that a delegation of Republican senators is planning to attend, led by Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina and including Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions and Ohio Sen. Rob Portman, who is a member of the leadership team in the Senate, serving as counselor to McConnell.

And as for Republican potential presidential hopefuls -- none of them will be in Selma either. Sen. Rand Paul's (R-Kent.) office said he will be in Kentucky. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) will be in Iowa participating in an agricultural summit and Sen. Marco Rubio's office did not respond to questions about where he would be this weekend, except to say that he was not traveling to Selma.

Boehner spokesman Michael Steel said that while the speaker will not be in Selma to mark Bloody Sunday, he was looking forward to granting those who marched to Montgomery Congress' highest civilian honor.

"Speaker Boehner was proud last month when the House passed legislation awarding the Congressional Gold Medal to the civil rights marchers in Selma 50 years ago, and will be proud to welcome them to a ceremony in the Capitol to bestow this honor," Steel said.

Both the House and Senate passed legislation in February to grant the awards.

Okay, when you hear those concern troll claim that it was the Democrats that were ones who turned the water cannons on American civil rights leaders, you kindly tell them, "Where are the Republicans now?"

The Democrats nominated and the American people elected the first Black president twice. So it's time to do the walk.....Republicans.

McCarthy and Scott had a change of heart. What about the Weeper and The Turtle?

Bob Menendez Got Caught Up!

Not going down without a fight... The words of embattled Democratic politico Bob Menendez of New Jersey.

You got served! Democratic U.S. Senator Bob Menendez got his ass caught up in a corruption probe.

Paging Melanie Sloan of the Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington. We got another one.

The longtime Democratic Senator from New Jersey is going up the creek soon and he's acting like nothing is happening. Signs of trouble for Menendez.

The U.S. Justice Department is preparing criminal corruption charges against New Jersey Democratic Senator Robert Menendez, CNN reported on Friday.

Citing unnamed sources briefed on the case, CNN said the charges center on allegations that Menendez used his office to promote the business interests of a Democratic donor and friend in exchange for gifts.

Menendez's office denied any wrongdoing.

"As we have said before, we believe all of the senator's actions have been appropriate and lawful, and the facts will ultimately confirm that," Tricia Enright, Menendez's communications director, said in a statement.

Noting that the official investigation of the matter was ongoing, she said the senator's office "cannot address allegations being made anonymously."

CNN said Attorney General Eric Holder has given the green light for prosecutors to proceed with charges and an announcement could arrive in coming weeks.

Holder, who was traveling in South Carolina with President Barack Obama, said he could not comment.

Justice Department officials declined to comment.

If charges are brought against Menendez it is possible he would have to step down from the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, where he is the top Democrat.

Federal authorities have probed Menendez's relationship with Florida ophthalmologist Salomon Melgen, a Democratic donor who has been accused of overbilling the Medicare program.

CNN said the government's case focuses on Melgen and, in part, on plane trips that Menendez took in 2010 to the Dominican Republic as a guest of Melgen.

Prosecutors also are focusing on whether Menendez advocated for Melgen's business interest in a Dominican Republic government contract for port screening equipment, CNN said.

Menendez is one of the critics of President Barack Obama's approach with disarming nuclear weapons with Iran. He was one of the many butt kissers for Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

This wasn't the first time. He was being probed in a child sexual abuse case in the Dominican Republic. The guy being his money man who is also indicted took him to the country.Them big time Democratic donors were inviting him to meet some hoes. Some of them hoes were underage.

He, Stallmigo Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Marco Rubio (R-FL) are the Cuban-American politicos currently serving in the Senate.

Cory Booker is the Democratic senator from New Jersey. He is an ally to Menendez.
