It features the smash hits from Kendrick Lamar and SZA, All the Stars and Pray for Me with The Weeknd.
More bad news for embattled right wing hack Alex Jones. He faces a pair of lawsuits.
The far-right kookspiracist Alex Jones is being served a lawsuit.
The controversial agitator is being sued by the families of the Sandy Hook elementary school massacre. They are suing him for defamation after the nut went on this continuous rant that the Sandy Hook massacre did not happen.
He believes the victims were crisis actors.
Jones who no stranger to promoting look stories got embroiled in a controversy with Parkland survivor David Hogg. The teen is the most prominent voice to the gun control debate and he has been a target of a vicious smear campaign by Jones, Laura Ingraham and others.
Jones is on thin ice with YouTube. He is considered too controversial for the social media platform and the company warned him to tone down vitriol.
These vitriolic right wing carnival barkers should be held accountable.
The lawsuits are being served to him on behalf of Jesse Lewis and Noah Pozner. The parents were stalked, harassed and were subjects of death threats from fans of Infowars. They are seeking $1 million in damage each.
More mass shootings happened right after Sandy Hook. Enough is enough.
The lawyers representing Jones believe that their lawsuit will not stand because he is an entertainer not a news reporter.
We are seeing activism at work. Jones, Ingraham, Rush Limbaugh, Matt Drudge and Sean "Softball" Hannity have divided this country far too long.
If we pressure advertisers to drop them, maybe we can see change.
Jones peddles bullshit everyday. He can't get away anymore.
Back in December 2012, this terrorist went into the Connecticut school and massacred 20 children and five school administrators before killing himself.
The terrorist killed his mother before he went on his rampage. Then president Barack Obama vowed to get the ball rolling on gun control in his second term.
Republicans blocked every move. Now nearly six years later, Republicans are losing the message war. The right and the NRA have embolden Americans who are tired of the bullshit.
While some blame the rise of Amazon for the fall of many retailers. Many others blame bad leadership.
The brick-and-mortar stores are going out of business. It's only a matter of time before one third of America's malls go out of business.
Another major retailer is going out of business soon. The Bon Ton Group which owns a handful of department stores will begin liquidation proceedings. The Chapter 7 liquidation of the Bon Ton Group will put 24,000 workers out of a job.
This will impact malls that depended on that anchor store.
All stores associated with Bon Ton will immediately close within 12 weeks.
Younkers, Elder Beerman, Carson's, Bergner's, Herbeger's, Boston Store and Bon Ton stand alone stores will leave the Midwest and Northeast.
This will have a huge impact on the Dayton area. There are 10 stores in the region.
Employees who work at the stores in Huber Heights, Beavercreek, Kettering, Piqua in Ohio and Richmond, Indiana will be affected.
The Bush Dynasty. The 41st and 43rd president. George H.W. Bush lost his rock, Barbara.
The wife and mother of two presidents has passed away. The junk food media report that Barbara Bush, the former First Lady of the United States has passed away at her Houston home.
The office of George W. Bush announced the news just five minutes ago.
The wife of George H.W. Bush and mother of George W. and Jeb Bush, was called the enforcer by granddaughter Jenna Hager, the NBC News anchor. She was the rock of the Bush family. She was the second woman who achieved a feat.
The last woman who held the title was Abigail Adams, the wife of John Adams and the mother of John Quincy Adams.
The Bush family were reading her last rites.
The 92 year old former First Lady ended her treatments and was prepared to pass away.
George H.W. Bush has Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's.
Born in 1925 in Manhattan, her life to legacy began in the town of Rye, New York. Barbara Pierce was a young girl who wanted to dream big. She was the daughter of a magazine executive.
She met George Herbert Walker Bush at a local dance and fell in love with him. They were married for 76 years.
They got married early and gave birth to their eldest son George Walker Bush.
Barbara and George.
Then they ended up five other children. Besides George W., there was John Ellis (Jeb), Dorothy Walker (Dora), Neil Mallon, Marvin Pierce and Pauline Robinson Bush (Robin).
The Bush dynasty is iconic and yes controversial. George H.W. Bush and Barbara only had one term in Washington, DC. During the late 1980s, America was changing and the Bush family couldn't release to the hipster Bill and wife Hillary Clinton.
During her time, she focused on literacy, AIDS, family values and faith.
Barbara Bush was gravely ill and refused treatment. The family was by her side when she passed away.
Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter, Bill and Hillary Clinton, Barack and Michelle Obama, Donald J. and Melania Trump expressed grievance to George H.W., George and Laura Bush today.
You know the Stanley Kubrick movie Full Metal Jacket. It was a cult classic about two privates name Joker and Pyle. They are enlisting into Parris Island Marine base where they are berated by Gunnery Sergeant Hartman.
That iconic role was played by R. Lee Ermey and the famed actor passed away on Sunday at the age of 74 of pneumonia.
He was a former Marine Gunnery Sergeant who actually was a drill instructor.
He used his drill instructor role to berate Joker and Pyle who interrupted his introduction to the weaklings of Parris Island.
Ermey was also in movies like the Toy Story franchise, Mississippi Burning and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
He hosted on The History Channel, the show Mail Call. He also had Lock n' Loaded and also GunnyTime on the Outdoor Channel.
He was on television shows like House, Spongebob Squarepants, and Rocket Power.
Ermey was considered a tough guy on the big screen.
He was considered a conservative in politics. He often was very critical of Barack Obama and fully supported Donald J. Trump.
He claims his politics for him blackball'd in Hollywood.
Art Bell will be missed by those who study paranormal activities and supernatural events.
If you love listening to Coast to Coast AM on many radio stations across the country you would hear George Noory, the current host of the late night program.
His predecessor was Art Bell, the creator and executive producer of the late night paranormal and conspiracy program.
Art Bell died on Friday in his Nevada home.
Bell died on Friday the 13th. Kind of interesting for him to pass away on a day that many Americans consider superstitious.
I often listened to Coast to Coast on nights I often had to work. The show would focus on stories of the unexplained, the supernatural and government secrets that never get played in the junk food media.
Bell began his career in radio at an early age. He started his own pirate radio which led to the beginnings of Coast to Coast.
The other side is waiting. We will miss you.
Famed guests on Coast to Coast AM include, George Carlin, Dan Aykroyd, Jerome Corsi, Richard Hoagland, and others.
A beloved character from the 1980s hit show Night Court has passed away.
Actor, comedian and magician Harry Anderson who played the New York City judge Harold "Harry" Stone on the NBC sitcom passed away at the age of 65.
The entertainment industry was alerted to the news of the death.
His son found him in his Asheville home yesterday.
Anderson was best known as the lovable and caring judge Harry Stone of Criminal Court pt 2. He was known as a huge fan of Mel Torme as the character and in real life.
Harry Anderson is a legend.
Anderson leaves behind a wife and two children.
Besides Night Court, Anderson was in Dave's World on CBS. He made occasional appearances on TV shows including Cheers and 30 Rock.
I often watched most episodes of Night Court on Laff TV since I don't have cable.
Uh oh. It could be trouble for the country's most hated agitator. Sean "Softball" Hannity failed to disclose his ties to embattled lawyer Michael Cohen.
This is big.
Michael Cohen, Donald J. Trump's personal attorney had to reveal his secret client.
Guess who it was?
The fixer has to appear in federal court today and we unearthed clients who had alleged affairs and a whole lot of names came up. I was surprised that the country's most annoying conservative agitator in the junk food media is that client.
Sean "Softball" Hannity is caught up in another scandal. This time he failed to disclose Cohen is the personal attorney for him.
Cohen's home, hotel and businesses were raided by the FBI.
Cohen had to appear in federal court today. Stormy Daniels who claimed she was paid over $135,000 to keep quiet about the affair between her and Trump.
Michael Avenatti, Daniel's attorney said, that the lead up to this is pretty shocking.
I listened to the softball playing thunder claps whenever her name was mentioned.
Cohen told federal judge Kimba Wood that he couldn't reveal his names because it could cause great distress and a personal embarrassment. Wood dismissed it and ordered him to reveal Sean "Softball" Hannity as a client.
Now the softball claims he and Cohen are just friends and he never discussed trivial conversations with the controversial lawyer.
Michael Cohen represented the softball.
Cohen performed services for a Republican donor who was caught up in a sex scandal. The special investigator Robert Mueller is looking into Cohen's trips to Europe.
On the right wing carnival, the softball said, "[Michael Cohen] has never represented me in any matter. I never retained him, received an invoice, or paid legal fees.... to be absolutely clear, they ever involved any matter between me and a third party."
"I have eight attorneys that I use for varying things in my life, and in this particular case I llike to have people I can run questions by."
That right there seems pretty questionable.
Stormy Daniels (aka Stephanie Clifford) appears at the federal court with her personal bodyguard.
You know I been wondering about his relationship with right wing hack Sara A. Carter. He has put her ass on his right wing carnival over a 100 times to discuss James Comey, Stormy Daniels, Hillary Clinton and Robert Mueller.
I believe the softball had an affair on his wife Jill Hannity.
As expected, the softball goes into a verbal rant about how the junk food media got it wrong.
Michael Cohen has never represented me in any matter. I never retained him, received an invoice, or paid legal fees. I have occasionally had brief discussions with him about legal questions about which I wanted his input and perspective.
In response to some wild speculation, let me make clear that I did not ask Michael Cohen to bring this proceeding on my behalf, I have no personal interest in this proceeding, and, in fact, asked that my de minimis discussions with Michael Cohen,
Now there's calls for his ass to be fired out the cannon.
Mr. Advocacy Journalism himself failed to disclose his ties to Cohen. During his monthly rants about all things Clinton, he claimed that others in the junk food media are trying to smear him.
This is a huge controversy for the official softball of the Donald J. Trump legacy. He is on thin ice with this one.
Now we haven't gotten any word about how he's going to do his show. I am not watching his rants about how the junk food media is picking on his pathetic ass.
One lawmaker is calling on Fox News to fire the softball out of the cannon.
Shannon Coulter of #GrabYourWallet is now involved with Media Matters for America, Sleeping Giants and Color of Change. Are they going to put a nail in the coffin?
Stormy Daniels also hits back at Trump, Cohen and the softball.
A federal judge blocked the inept leader's ban on transgender military enrollment.
Trump vows to appeal the decision.
Citing a distraction, Trump imposed this ban on transgender military enrollment and the stripping of medical benefits of those who openly serve.
Transgender active military and former Defense Secretary Ash Carter.
The LGBTQ community is openly allowed to serve.
The federal court ruled against Trump. The judge said that despite Trump's promise to consult military leaders and advisors, the inept leader failed to compose a full listing of how banning a long oppressed group would benefit the military.
Remember, Comey in 2014, said in the wake of the unrest in Ferguson, he told Congress about the effects of social media and law enforcement. He dubbed it the Ferguson Effect.
He said that police officers won't do their jobs when people of color film interactions with them.
That was a bullshit excuse to justify police shootings of unarmed people.
He is a bullshiter, just like Donald J. Trump.
The highly anticipated interview.
Trump publicly blasted Comey for being a slimeball.
James Comey, the former FBI director went to ABC News to tell his side of the story. He sat with George Stephanopoulos to talk about his fallout with Donald J. Trump, the inept leader who fired him last year.
Comey tore into Trump. He said that he is unfit to serve the United States.
Comey explained his reasoning to return to the Hillary Clinton email server scandal two weeks before the election.
Comey also addressed his beliefs about Trump, Barack Obama, George W. Bush, Russia and Robert Mueller.
A Higher Loyalty is already a New York Times best seller.
Trump fired back.
James Comey is a proven LEAKER & LIAR. Virtually everyone in Washington thought he should be fired for the terrible job he did-until he was, in fact, fired. He leaked CLASSIFIED information, for which he should be prosecuted. He lied to Congress under OATH. He is a weak and.....
....untruthful slime ball who was, as time has proven, a terrible Director of the FBI. His handling of the Crooked Hillary Clinton case, and the events surrounding it, will go down as one of the worst “botch jobs” of history. It was my great honor to fire James Comey!
DOJ just issued the McCabe report - which is a total disaster. He LIED! LIED! LIED! McCabe was totally controlled by Comey - McCabe is Comey!! No collusion, all made up by this den of thieves and lowlifes!
Unbelievably, James Comey states that Polls, where Crooked Hillary was leading, were a factor in the handling (stupidly) of the Clinton Email probe. In other words, he was making decisions based on the fact that he thought she was going to win, and he wanted a job. Slimeball!
The big questions in Comey’s badly reviewed book aren’t answered like, how come he gave up Classified Information (jail), why did he lie to Congress (jail), why did the DNC refuse to give Server to the FBI (why didn’t they TAKE it), why the phony memos, McCabe’s $700,000 & more?
Comey throws AG Lynch “under the bus!” Why can’t we all find out what happened on the tarmac in the back of the plane with Wild Bill and Lynch? Was she promised a Supreme Court seat, or AG, in order to lay off Hillary. No golf and grandkids talk (give us all a break)!
Comey drafted the Crooked Hillary exoneration long before he talked to her (lied in Congress to Senator G), then based his decisions on her poll numbers. Disgruntled, he, McCabe, and the others, committed many crimes!
My book is about ethical leadership & draws on stories from my life & lessons I learned from others. 3 presidents are in my book: 2 help illustrate the values at the heart of ethical leadership; 1 serves as a counterpoint. I hope folks read the whole thing and find it useful.
The NRA's poster child for gun safety. This guy is a teacher at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. He faces charges for leaving a loaded burner in the restroom.
Okay, the argument of arming teachers is stupid. Did you know that Oklahoma, Kentucky, Colorado and Arizona had teacher walk outs?
They are demanding better funding for books, teaching material, a fair wage and more activities to help students.
Republican governments are seeing a movement of resistance. It's not all Donald J. Trump. It's mostly heading a resistance that is heading into the state houses and governor mansions.
People are rising up against this phony version of conservatism. People are tired of the well off taking away from the poor.
We don't want tax cuts.
We don't want guns in the classroom.
We certainly don't want lawmakers ignoring the public when they are paid to do their jobs to serve all their constituents.
We don't need thoughts and prayers.
We don't need trolls telling us now isn't the time. It's been time after time and I am getting tired of it.
David Hogg (center) turned 18 and he urges others to register.
A science teacher at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School was iced after he was the moron who left his burner in a public restroom. A homeless guy got a hold of the 9mm and fired it off inside the restroom.
Sean Simpson was charged with unsafe usage of a firearm and failure to constrain weapon. Those are misdemeanors and could carry a year in the iron college. He got his get out free card and was sent home.
He was trying his best to follow the NRA's strategy of arming trained teachers to stop a mass shooter.
Now he is facing a court date and scorn of the Parkland massacre survivors.
The moron is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
Donald J. Trump was notified about the illness of former First Lady Barbara Bush, the wife of George H.W. Bush and mother of George W. Bush.
It is reported that the 92 year old Bush is done. She is no longer interested in health treatments and will soon be admitted to hospice care.
The former First Lady has been in and out of the hospital.
The family has confirmed that she is in failing health.
The former president was also in and out the hospital as well.
Mrs. Bush has been suffering some chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and congestive heart failure. She has also been treated for Graves disease which is the thyroid condition.
George H. W. Bush and Barbara have been married since 1945. Mr. Bush is 93 years old and is suffering from Parkinson's disease and is no longer walking.
The Parkinson's disease also has him struggling to speak.
The Bush family. Dora, George W., Barbara, George, Sr., Neil, Marvin and Jeb.
Last year, Mr. Bush was caught up in a scandal involving numerous women. Some women that claim Bush was getting a little too frisky from the wheelchair. The Bushes were both hospitalized in 2017 and were unable to make it to the inept leaders inauguration.
Besides Trump, you will hear the formers react to the news. Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama will likely respond in the coming hours. The former to current second bananas will likely react to the news.
Walter Mondale, Dan Quayle, Al Gore, Dick Cheney, Joe Biden, and Mike Pence will respond to the news.
Former first ladies to the current one will respond.
Rosalynn Carter, Hillary Clinton, Laura Bush, Michelle Obama, and Melania Trump will respond to the news.
George W. Bush will take the lost of his mom hard. He, sister Dora, brothers Jeb, Marvin and Neil will now do the hardest task ahead.
Notable members of the family got the news. NBC News anchor Jenna Hager and twin sister Barbara P. Bush are the granddaughters of Barbara Bush. George P. Bush is the Texas state land controller.
While, I don't offer prayers, I can assure you that her legacy will be cemented in history.
She helped America read. She championed literacy in schools.
