How To Get Away With Murder is co-produced by Peter Nowalk and Shonda Rhimes and it features Broadway's famed Viola Davis. The ABC drama is a go for second season.
HTGAWM for short is one highly praised drama. I'm a fan of the series.
Viola plays the role of Annalise Keating as a law professor at a prestigious Philadelphia university who, with four of her students, becomes entwined in a murder plot.
One of the most famous scenes was Annalise taking off her wig, her eyelashes and wiping off the makeup and showing the natural side of her. It was ad lib and it was Viola's idea.
Kerry Washington, Viola Davis and Ellen Pompeo.
She wanted to do this as a reminder to women that beauty is inner deep.
There was something for me that I didn’t buy about Annalise in private. It felt like who she was in private had to be diametrically opposed to who she was in public. And so in order to do that, I felt like I had to physically take the wig off. I mean, I have no eyebrows. I have eyelashes that I put on, and there was something extremely vulnerable about that act -- and I know it seems like a very simple act at the end of the day -- but for me, that simple act really surmounted to something very powerful in the end, because what it was was someone being very, very private in public, which is absolutely the cornerstone of what we do as artists.
That episode was epic.
Rhimes have gotten fans talking about controversial seasons of Grey's Anatomy and Scandal.
She promises fans that they will be even better.
A lot of talk coming from the killing of Meredith Grey's husband Derrick Shepard (played by Patrick Dempsey). Fans weren't happy about the decision to write off Dempsey's character.
Reality star Kim Kardashian-West told of a bump in her belly.
The junk food media reports that controversial celebrity agitator Kim Kardashian West is expecting another one. Kanye West is going to be a proud papa again. The rap star/producer/celebrity agitator is the husband of the socialite.
The couple celebrates their first year anniversary with their daughter when the news broke from Entertainment Tonight and AP.
"I'm hoping so. You know I kind of wish I was pregnant at the same time Kourtney is. She's like more than half way in, so you know, we're trying," Kardashian told "Entertainment Tonight" in August, when asked if she sees another baby in the near future. "It would be fun. There's a lot of craziness in the house, so why not add pregnancy hormones to the craziness? It would be like a partner in crime. Someone to know those cravings that you're really going through."
Round two.
A month later, Kardashian again spoke of her desire to get pregnant, telling Australia's "Today" show, "We’re trying. I guess, it’s all in God’s hands."
Getting pregnant the second time around was no easy task for the couple.
"I've been having sex 500 times a day," Kardashian told Khloe on a preview for the reality show's tenth season. "I was like, 'I'm ovulating today!' So I made [Kanye] come to my photo shoot. You know what, I don't feel bad about that for one second. You gotta get it in where you can get it in."
West is producing his eighth album and it's going to be released on Def Jam this year.
Reality television sucks. I know Kim and her family are probably one of the main reasons.
Nonetheless, well wishes to Kanye and Kim Kardashian-West on their second round.
While I do agree that the Patriot Act is an overreach by the federal government, I think that presidential candidate and Stallmigo Rand Paul (R-KY) is throwing his hypocrisy into this.
The very same Paul rather meddle between a woman's legs, a Black man's firearms, a poor family's safety net and a family's Obamacare subsidies. Paul wants the big old bad gubmint stop looking into your cell phone.
After all his stupid son probably was incriminating himself with pictures of him smoking a bong while playing with snow lines.
Paul is already not making friends in the Republican race for the red nose. Paul put on his makeup and juggling his balls hoping he can pick off young minds with legal weed and low incarceration.
On a rare Sunday night, the U.S. Senate is in session. His fellow senator, Majority Leader Mitch The Turtle (R-KY) called for a vote on the "Uniting and Strengthening America by Fulfilling Rights and Ending Eavesdropping, Dragnet-collection and Online Monitoring Act." For the smart people this is called the USA Freedom Act.
This bill is sponsored by Wisconsin Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R-WI), the creator of the Patriot Act.
He also sponsored this bill a few years back and it didn't get traction. In October 2013, he introduced the USA Freedom Act in the House, a bill designed to curtail the powers of the NSA and end the NSA's dragnet phone data collection program. The bill is supported by civil liberties advocacy groups, including the American Civil Liberties Union.
Even he's skeptical of his own law. Did he even read this shit?
NOPE.
The USA Freedom Act was not passed by the U.S. Senate on May 22, 2015. By a vote of 57-42, the Senate did not pass the bill that would have required 60 votes to move forward, which means that the NSA must start winding down its domestic mass surveillance program this week. The Senate also rejected, by 54-45, also short of the necessary 60 votes, a two-month extension for the key provision in the Patriot Act that has been used to justify NSA spying, which is set to expire on June 1, 2015.
I don't want to jeopardize the lives of Americans because of a handful of lawmakers standing on principles that are wrong.
However, on May 31, 2015, the Senate voted 77-17 to limit debate on the act. Senate rules will allow it to be passed after the mass surveillance programs have expired.
The Republican majority promised transparency. They promised jobs. They promised to deny President Barack Obama a victory. So far, they are destroying themselves to defeat Obama.
They are wasting time trying to pass symbolic votes on restricting abortions, gutting the safety net, passing that stupid Keystone XL pipeline, restricting the president's executive powers on education, immigration, and raising the minimum wage. They are not working on passing reasonable gun control, refusing to work on peace deals with Cuba and Iran. They are pushing for troops in the battle against the Islamic State and Boko Haram. They want to waste time on Benghazi hearings, IRS emails, Hillary Clinton's missing emails, and dragging Attorney General Loretta Lynch into committee hearings about Fast & Furious.
With Paul's temper tantrum and some of his fellow Republicans and even Democratic allies calling upon the end of bulk collection done by the NSA, it seems like the bill is possibly on its way to defeat.
Here's the filibuster. Paul runs 11 hours of whine.
Again, this lawmaker has no legislative accomplishments and they act like he's a god.
The conservative Craigslist have been hyping up this guy for some time now. Yesterday, the former Maryland governor Martin O'Malley decided to put on the makeup and jump into the clown car.
The Aristocat himself, 52 year old Martin O'Malley hopes he can defeat a literally untouchable candidate.
He is the father of four. He is married to his wife Katie for over 25 years. He is an American politician who served as the 61st Governor of Maryland, from 2007 to 2015. Prior to being elected as Governor, he served as the Mayor of Baltimore from 1999 to 2007, having previously served as a Baltimore City Councilor from 1991 to 1999. A member of the Democratic Party, he served as the Chair of the Democratic Governors Association from 2011 to 2013. Following his departure from public office in early 2015, he was appointed to the Johns Hopkins University's Carey Business School as a visiting professor focusing on government, business and urban issues.
As Governor, in 2011 he signed a law that would make certain undocumented immigrants eligible for in-state college tuition on condition; and in 2012, he signed a law to legalize same-sex marriage in Maryland. Each law was challenged to a voter referendum in the 2012 general election and upheld by a majority of the voting public.
O'Malley stood in for 2008 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton at a Democratic campaign event on June 2, 2007, in New Hampshire, Delegate Tony O'Donnell said in response, "It's the worst-kept secret in Maryland that the governor has national ambitions."
State Senator Thomas V. Miller, Jr. said O'Malley's political future "comes into play in everything he does", adding O'Malley is "very much like Bill Clinton in being slow and deliberative and calculating in everything he does."
The conservative agitators are hoping that O'Malley win the nomination. They are planning on giving him the Michael Dukakis treatment.
In order to make Clinton and the crop of Democrats running uninspiring, the conservative agitators will continue to bitch about Obama, Iraq, Syria, ISIS, Benghazi, missing emails, Monica, Paula, Kathleen, Juanita,Vince, Whitewater, the missing server, accomplishments, age, being a woman, and everything else they can pull out their asses.
Jam session with Martin O'Malley.
They want to muddy up the waters with tales of Bill Clinton and the past in order to ruin the potential nomination of perennial candidate Hillary Clinton.
He wants to be the alternative to Clinton. He wants to be the voice of the progressives.
He made his decision in Baltimore. The place where Freddie Gray lost his life to six reckless officers and riots broke out in April. These officers will have a day in court. They are innocent until proven guilty.
CNN reminds the readers that his decision to launch in Baltimore could be proven a "challenge".
The treatment of Freddie Gray, which sparked a national dialogue about police conduct toward racial minorities, drew renewed scrutiny to the controversial zero-tolerance policing strategy that O'Malley advocated for as mayor -- part of an aggressive strategy to crack down on crime.
Speaking in rolled-up sleeves at Federal Hill Park, O'Malley began with a call for economic fairness and closing the gap between rich and poor in America.
Martin and his wife Katie hope 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue will be their new residence. It's only 40 miles from Baltimore.
"This is the urgent work calling us forward today: to rebuild the truth of the American Dream for all Americans," O'Malley said. "And to begin right now."
He touched upon last month's unrest in Baltimore, saying the aftermath of Freddie Gray's death was about more than race or policing in America, but about "the scourge of hopelessness" in the nation's cities.
"There is something to be learned from that night, and there is something to be offered to our country from those flames," he said.
A small group of protesters tried to interrupt his speech, shouting remarks like "black lives matter" and blowing on whistles. As O'Malley discussed the problem of income inequality and concentration of wealth, one protester angrily yelled out: "You did that! It was you!"
But the protesters largely failed to be a disruptive presence at the launch event, where O'Malley's supporters, numbering in the hundreds, reacted enthusiastically to his speech.
O'Malley also took a shot at Clinton and Republican Jeb Bush, using an attack on Goldman Sachs to suggest they were too close to Wall Street to be advocates for the less fortunate in America.
"Recently, the CEO of Goldman Saches let his employees know that he'd be just fine with either Bush or Clinton. I bet he would," O'Malley said. "Well, I've got news for the bullies of Wall Street: The presidency is not a crown to be passed back and forth by you between two royal families. It is a sacred trust to be earned from the people of the United States, and exercised on behalf of the people of the United States."
Frenemies.
Perhaps O'Malley's biggest challenge is finding a way to dent the Clinton political machine while also proving that he's a competitive candidate in his own right -- not just a backup for progressives who would rather see "a not running" Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts in the White House. A Quinnipiac University poll released this week places Clinton 56 percentage points ahead of O'Malley.
It makes three. Three candidates running for the Democratic nomination. A perennial candidate, a Socialist and a nobody ever heard of.
Hillary Clinton, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and O'Malley have declared their intentions to run for the blue nose while a handful of Republicans and insurgents run for the red nose.
These clowns are uninspiring.
But if you're interested in one of them, could Martin O'Malley be the one you prefer?
The media broke this last night. Vice President Joe Biden's oldest son Beau had passed away.
The White House has confirmed that 46 year old Beau had terminal brain cancer.
World News Today send our condolences to the Vice President Biden and his family.
Earlier this month, Beau, a former Delaware attorney general, was reported to be undergoing treatment at Walter Reed Army Medical Center outside Washington.
After eight years as attorney general, Beau Biden joined the investor law firm Grant & Eisenhofer in 2015.
He served a yearlong tour in Iraq as a captain in the Delaware Army National Guard and underwent surgery at a cancer center in Texas last year. He suffered a mild stroke in 2010.
“The entire Biden family is saddened beyond words. We know that Beau’s spirit will live on in all of us, especially through his brave wife, Hallie, and two remarkable children, Natalie and Hunter,” a statement released by the White House said.
The vice president was then a senate candidate. He ran for the U.S. Senate in Delaware. When he won his election, he lost his first wife and daughter to a car accident. A week before Christmas, Biden was informed about his first wife and his children were injured.
Beau, Hunter, Naomi and wife Nellia were hurt. Nellia and Naomi died of their injuries.
Joseph Robinette Biden III (Beau) was an officer in the Army Judge Advocate General's Corps (JAG), and politician from Wilmington, Delaware. He served as the Attorney General of Delaware and was a Major in the Delaware Army National Guard. He was a member of the Democratic Party and the older son of U.S. Vice President Joe Biden and older step-son of Second Lady of the United States Dr. Jill Biden.
Beau leaves behind his wife Hallie and two children Natalie and Hunter.
Beau was tempted to run for Delaware governor in 2016.
Last time I've checked, anyone being a proud Muslim American is form of patriotism.
Pam Geller denies hosting this event, but she had her hand in it. Over in Phoenix, a group of armed White extremists were protesting against Islam.
You notice that the junk food media calls them protesters.
Why aren't they called terrorist?
They're terrorizing innocent Americans with threats and openly showing discrimination against a religion.
These extremists were greeting peaceful Muslim parishioners at The Islamic Community Center.
Jon Ritzheimer is a white extremist who sponsored the event. He wore the "fuck" Islam t-shirt. The cameras blocked the offensive shirt.
The mosque was the center of controversy when two men traveled to Texas in their failed attempt to assassinate Geller and those who were responsible for the "Draw Mohammad' contest. They were attendees at that mosque. They were killed by Garland police after they had a brief shoot out.
Jon Ritzheimer was the extremist who promote this. He wore a Fuck Islam shirt and carried an AR15 on his side.
Many others came to protest and use the hashtag #NotMyAmerica.
The junk food media talking on an on about the crisis in Iraq and Syria, and giving credence to a group of extremists overseas. The junk food media and the agitators give the Islamic State more props than al Qaeda.
White extremist shakes hands with counter-protester.
They are "concern trolling" yet again about the crisis over in Iraq. The agitators claim that President Barack Obama's rush to leaving Iraq led to the rise of the Islamic State and the Lavent.
The extremist group has shown on social media beheadings of Westerners Muslim and non-Muslim captives they've claimed as "spies". They have also pillaged destroyed historical artifacts and treasures.
The group is notorious for promoting itself on social media. The junk food media continues to give it attention.
Here in the United States, conservatives are concern trolling about how radical Islam has came into our borders. They seriously believe the Mexican government is willingly allowing a foreign terrorist organization to build a base camp a few miles from the U.S.-Mexico border.
Okay, who are the real radicals here in the United States?
Long shot candidate jumps into the clown car. The Dick Dastardly of Republican politics wants his shot in.
Former New York governor George Pataki is now another clown in the car. He's declared his intentions today. Conservatives already consider him the Jon Huntsman of the bunch.
Kind of like Dick Dastardly in them Wacky Races. He will try everything to win.
Pataki a three term governor is hoping that his experience as a governor could help him win. Pataki was one of only three Republican governors of New York elected since 1923, the others being Thomas Dewey and Nelson Rockefeller.
This candidate is already mocked by the conservative agitators in the junk food media.
They consider Pataki too liberal for the nomination. He comes from New York, the mecca of cultural clashes. Besides, he's been out of office for over a decade, is he still even viable to run?
CNN reports that the former three-term New York governor, who led the Empire State through the trauma of 9/11, promised to upset predictions he has little chance in one of the deepest GOP presidential fields in years, in a campaign in which he barely registers in polls of the nationwide race or in swing states.
This dork is trying to fit in an already crowded clown car.
Pataki said the current state of the race reminded him of when he mounted a long odds run for governor in New York in 1994 and knocked off Democratic icon Mario Cuomo.
"No one had heard of me ... I was a Republican in deep blue New York," Pataki told CNN in an interview after a small event in the same Smuttynose Brewery in Hampton, New Hampshire, where Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton held a much more high-profile gathering last week.
"It took me months to get a crowd like this, to go anywhere in New York, to think I had a chance. But you work hard, you have the right ideas and over time convince people that you are the person to lead the country," he said. "I have always started at the bottom, I think it is the best way to do it. You appreciate something more when you earn it."
Earlier, Pataki had launched his campaign in the sweltering Old Town Hall in Exeter, New Hampshire, the town where the Republican Party was founded, after releasing a four-minute announcement video which made the case that if the nation is to flourish "we have to fall in love with America again."
At this point, Pataki's campaign looks like a lonely quest: No prominent elected officials or donors have stepped forward to trumpet his bid in a field that many top Republicans tout as one of the most competitive they have ever seen.
Given his lack of support, it is unlikely that Pataki will make the first Republican debate, which will be limited to the top 10 Republican hopefuls. That could stifle any efforts to increase his name identification among next year's voters.
But Pataki isn't likely to run a national campaign, if the pre-announcement build-up is any indication. He has dedicated most of his travel to New Hampshire, the second nominating contest where a tradition of small events and face-to-face campaigning gives him an outside chance to build some momentum.
CNN added that earlier start came from his days as a lawyer by trade.
Pataki rose from being the mayor of the Westchester County hamlet of Peekskill through the New York state legislature. In the fall of 1994, Pataki ousted liberal darling Mario Cuomo to become New York's first Republican governor in two decades.
Pataki shepherded laws through Albany that reduced some tax rates and increased sentences for criminals committing hate crimes. He also governed New York as the state recovered from the 9/11 attacks that occurred a year before voters elected him to a third term.
He declined to run for a fourth term in 2006, and Democratic attorney general Eliot Spitzer succeeded him.
Pataki stoked speculation that he would run in 2008 and in 2012, but this is the year he has chosen to follow through.
Pataki is married to Libby Rowland and has two sons and two daughters.
Another clown in.....Do you think he stands a chance in a field of nuts?
When it comes to gun control it's only a matter of it being for Black people. According to these concern trolling agitators, Baltimore's rise of gun violence is a major problem in America.
Is it about time for Americans bloggers to stop reading what a concern troll post?
If we feed the trolls, they become parasites. They latch on.
I am not trying to stop them from expressing their views. The things mentioned in the junk food media are passionate and extremely controversial. Some agree and others don't. It's a part of food chain when it comes to politics.
In the age of Obama, it's gotten worse. Race relations are on the decline. Blacks have a strong dislike towards Republicans. But also Democrats as well. The Democrats are not working hard enough for the Black vote. Although the Black vote is still a strong block for them, the Democrats haven't put up much of a fight since they've been driven back to the minority in Congress.
Concern trolling is a part of the conservative manifesto.
The labeling of individuals is common among concern trolling. Conservatives hate being called racist. Liberals hate being called racist. They both hate being called elitists. They both hate being labeled but yet they label everyone in a group.
I tend to hate conservatives a little more than liberals. I don't look at liberals as being the winning team. I actually believe that the middle is the best way to solve problems. Yeah, I am more socially liberal on issues but conservative when it comes to my finances and work ethic.
I hate when conservatives want to bring up criminal behavior. They seem fixated on trying compare piss to shit. They seem only interested in pointing out "_______" criminal behavior.
Conservatives all of sudden became pro-police in the wake of high profile killings of unarmed Black suspects. The rise of gun crimes happen in warmer months.
Every day at least 400 people die of gun violence. At least 2000 people were shot by firearms.
If you actually know what really happens in America, look at the rise in gun crime. The junk food media reacts to mass shooters. Whenever a mass shooter plots a domestic attack on suburbia, the junk food media reacts.
Liberals hope its a White guy who has hatred for race, political standings, religious intolerance and a frequent listener to talk radio or viewer of Fox News.
Conservatives hope its either a Black guy or a Brown guy. They hope they can claim it's a liberal, Muslim, or racist. They can claim that it's Obama's fault for the shooting because the guy was of color.
Not one of them blame the shooter. Not one of them say that those with mental issues should have access to firearms.
Not one mention of their names from any of these concern trolls. But yet, it's posted on The Drudge Report.
And the links are pointed to hearsay. Someone who claims they know something but wasn't given legal right to is not credible. But yet, it's look upon as "TRUTH".
World News Today has an example of concern trolling from one who post comments on stories we've posted about police brutality and institutional racism in country.
This person seems fixated on posting links to some website or YouTube to dispute the notion that conservatives are racist bigots.
Alas, in his mind he seriously believes that he's proving a point. Quite the opposite.
Check it. I've listened, read, and commented about four controversial agitators in the media.
The Drudge Report is irrelevant. But still a money maker. Conservatives rely on the website to generate their talking points.
The Drudge Report helps motivate Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Colin Flaherty. They rely on this to paint the president and others as "enemies".
They are conservative agitators who spent a majority of their lives racking up $$$$ playing the roles of old grumpy men.
Talk radio is a White man's best friend. Conservatives use talk radio to vent off about the Black guy getting a better job based on racial quotas. They call in to complain about the Mexican family being here in our country illegally. They got to the blogs to complain about radicalism. They finger Islam and the non-religious atheists as the radicals.
They complain about the poor having cell phones, refrigerators, microwaves, televisions and computers. They believe that they're living on the taxpayer's dollar. They complain about food stamps, welfare and entitlements. Nothing more than a drop in the bucket but to conservatives, it's like the world's on fire and they need their piss to put out the fire.
These agitators can't seem to stay focus on what's right in America. One minute they concern about their freedom of speech being silenced by the numerous boycotts against them. The next minute, they call for boycotts of those they believe should be silenced.
When it comes to racial issues. They're like tops. They spin and spin and spin. And most of the people who click, read, watch or listen to them are soaking this stuff up like sponges.
The Republican Party is taking their talking points from these agitators and Fox News.
Fox News is the nation's most watched cable news channel. It is by far the most controversial network to ever exist. The network claims that the media is partisan. Yet, this network is pandering and evolving into the very thing its hates being called.
Most of the people on that network are extremely conservative. That network has given airtime to Matt Drudge (the founder of the The Drudge Report), Rush Limbaugh and Colin Flaherty.
Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, Megyn Kelly, Greta Van Susteren and others on that network spin hypothetical bullshit. These conservative agitators act like they're concerned but really they're not.
They relish in this method of repetitiveness. They won't let an issue go. If it makes President Barack Obama, the Black community and liberals look bad, they look good.
They are the masters of concern trolling.
See when the rise of gun crime happens in Urban America, these agitators are now concern about gun control. They rather see Blacks, Hispanics, and Muslims lose their rights when it comes voting, firearms, entitlements, freedom of speech, right to a fair trial and economic opportunities.
The conservatives agitators believe that the freedom of speech, the right to bare arms and the right to a fair trial when it only applies to them.
So now they're concern about gun crime.
Baltimore seen a rise in violence, the agitators automatically assume that cops aren't doing their jobs.
See what the Black community was complaining about?
If the cops be defenders of the community instead of enforcers, you wouldn't see such a disconnect.
Trust me, crime occurs in America. It doesn't discriminate.
In his ongoing explanations, Hough presents himself as the healing voice of hard candor. “I am 80 and I figure I can speak truth as I see it. Ignorant I am not.” But to others he says, “The time has come to stop talking about race relations generally” and to start talking instead about “the Asians” and “the Poles” and their model behavior in America. In other words, Hough gets to rant about race relations, and you need to shut up, get to work and, if you’re black, find a white person to marry.
From Thomas Jefferson to Strom Thurmond, however, white men’s sexual relations with black women, often coercive, has not appeared to elevate white consciousness toward African Americans at a systemic level. They still managed to hold slaves, defend segregation, and rant against “miscegenation.”
The Alfred P Newman of Republican governors is thinking about jumping into the clown car.
The guy who once told the junk food media that the Republican Party can't be the party of stupid is thinking about running into the clown car, face first.
Piyush "Bobby" Jindal is the current governor of Louisiana. He is an Indian-American politico who is also the Vice Chairman of the Republican Governors Association. He is one of the youngest governors in office. He and South Carolina Republican governor Nikki Haley are the two youngest elected governors. Haley is also Indian-American.
Jindal is 43 years old and he's determined to be in the 40s club of U.S. Presidents.
Is Bobby Jindal a dumb person?
No.
He's quite intelligent. He married with three children. He is son of immigrants. He studied at the best universities. But unfortunately he's "dumb down" himself to appeal to that rigid old and bigoted base.
Jindal formed a exploratory committee and has fired shots at Stallmigo Rand Paul (R-KY) the CEO of Planter's Peanuts. Jindal claims that Paul's thoughts on Americans being dragged to war is a form of "apologizing for America".
He couldn't help but aim at President Barack Obama for being a weak leader on the economy and terrorism. He is pissed that Hillary Clinton refuses to acknowledge her role in the beaten horse we call Benghazi.
Some may question his birth certificate. He's Brown so it's going to be a hard sell to White extremists who believe that having Carson and Jindal running is a disaster.
He's got to make sure his base don't confuse him as a practicing Muslim or Hindu. Jindal is a Catholic parishioner.
He's got to make sure everyone calls him by the name "Bobby" and not a foreign sounding name like Piyush.
He's got to gather his buddies in the establishment to at least chip a million in. After all the Jewish billionaire Sheldon Adelson is giving Republicans a check if they can say that all "Mooslims are scary" and "Obama's anti-Semitic" towards Israel.
Jindal will be another one of the many minorities running for the red nose. I mean you got already in the game Stallmigos Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Ted Cruz (R-TX) who are Hispanic. You got Ben Carson, who is Black. You got Carly Fiorina who is a woman. Now if he declares his bid, he'll be the first Republican of Asian decent to run for the White House.
Jindal was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, to immigrants from India. Prior to entering politics, Jindal studied for a Bachelor of Science in biology and public policy at Brown University from 1988 to 1991 and then a Master of Letters in political science from New College, Oxford, as a Rhodes Scholar. He worked for McKinsey & Company and interned for Representative Jim McCrery of Louisiana.
Jindal talks a mean game about the president. Jindal claims that President Barack Obama is weak on the economy, domestic policies and terrorism. He won't say it to Obama's face though. He's too busy trying to dumb down himself so he can win voters.
In 1996, Governor Murphy Foster appointed Jindal Secretary of the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals, and in 1999 he was appointed President of the University of Louisiana System. In 2001, Jindal was appointed as the principal adviser to Tommy Thompson, the United States Secretary of Health and Human Services by President George W. Bush.
He first ran for governor in 2003 and won a plurality in the nonpartisan blanket primary but lost in the general election to Democrat Kathleen Blanco. He then won a seat in the United States House of Representatives in the 2004 elections. The second Indian American in Congress, he was re-elected in 2006. He ran for Governor again in 2007 and secured an outright majority in the first round of balloting; in doing so, he became the first Indian American governor in the United States.
He was re-elected in a landslide in 2011.
Jindal is a total buttface. He looks Mad Magazine's mascot Alfred P. Newman.
You won't believe it! These are two cops with a suspect. The suspect is wearing antlers.
Spreading racist emails, taking inappropriate pictures, doing unprofessional things on social media all the while wearing the badge is not an coincidence. It's a matter of common practice.
Will that annoying conservative agitator talk about this on his right wing carnival?
Nope. It doesn't fit the narrative to blame President Barack Obama. The president is passionately talking about the case for unity among the police and the communities they serve.
Psst...Obama's Black.
The president can testify to it. He was profiled by the police when he was a nobody. And for him to talk about the disparaging interactions between the Black community and the law, the conservatives claim it's anti-cop and racist.
This picture is of two former Chicago cops posing with a suspect. They decided wanted to share a funny picture with fellow officers. They decided to put antlers on the suspect and pose as two Elmer Fudds.
Real laugh riot.
The Chicago Sun-Times report that ex-cops Jerome Finnigan and Timothy McDermott were fired out the cannon after they were posing with this unidentified drug suspect.
Finnigan had already been fired out the cannon: In 2011, he was sentenced to 12 years in prison for leading a team of cops in robberies and home invasions. This may have inspired Chicago PD on NBC.
McDermott is fighting to wear the badge. He got a 5-4 decision in his cannon firing. The minority believe that it was a funny picture. The majority believe it's time to clean up the force.
This makes Chicago PD look like a bunch of idiots. Terrible.
Even in my community an idiot sheriff's deputy got his online fixation. He was on Twitter and had shared some inappropriate thoughts of the Baltimore riots in the wake of Freddie Gray's death.
Clark County Ohio sheriff Gene Kelly said that this deputy is fired out the cannon.
Zach Davis got fired out the cannon.
Ex-deputy Zach Davis was caught online posting his thoughts on the rioting in Baltimore.
Davis said that the Baltimore riots were a "real life Planet of the Apes". And to make it worse, he said that rioters are “ignorant young people” who deserve “every stereotype they've ever been labeled.”
When confronted with his post, Davis confessed and was immediately fired out the cannon.
Kelly said that Davis "did not believe he was racist" for publishing such comments.
The letter sent to the sheriff's office expressed concerns over the "insensitivity, hostility, and maliciousness" reflected in the tweets, and stated that such derogatory statements are unacceptable under any circumstances but especially troubling coming from a deputy who "holds the power of the state."
"Davis’s tweets are offensive, inappropriate, and inhumane for the way they treat the black citizens of Baltimore, striping them of their humanity and rendering them 'apes' who should be 'slayed' to be taught a lesson," the letter reads.
Davis joined the force in April. Kelly said he has met with the local NAACP president, who supports his decision.
"I’ve done everything I can do to try and correct this problem," Kelly said. "It hurts us and this community and there’s no place for it."
Now all deputies in Clark County will have to go through sensitivity training. They will now be forced to limit their social media connections and associations.
The power of Facebook and Twitter. Whenever you post something online, it's there forever.
