Another one bites the dust. Fashionistas lose Charlotte Russe.
Fashion retailer is gone.
You remember that Charlotte Russe is the place where women could find the hottest fashion and beauty trends. A place for the best dresses, jeans, shoes and just about any curve. Now fashionistas will no longer find a place to shop.
All the locations in the United States and Canada will close.
The company didn't want to close. It filed for bankruptcy protection only a month ago and announced plans to close nearly 100 stores. Now this is going to be 515 stores.
The goals was to use the bankruptcy process to shed debts and sell to a buy who would keep it open.
CNN reports that Charlotte Russe has 8,700 employees and a handful of them are part-time employees.
Liquidation firm SB360 Capital Partners bought the chain's assets but not the intellectual property.
The store could return in another form.
By April 30, the company will have all its locations closed.
"We are partnering with the buyer and remain in talks to sell the Charlotte Russe brand and are optimistic about the future of the brand, and remain in ongoing negotiations with a buyer who has expressed interest in a continued brick and mortar presence to serve our loyal customers in the future," said Charlotte Russe in a press release.
Black tape will soon cover this GM facility in Ohio. This was one of the largest facilities in North America. It's among four GM facilities in the United States and Canada going out.
Ohio is hit once again with bad news. Despite the bluster from Donald J. Trump, former governor John Kasich, current governor Mike DeWine, Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH), Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH), Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH), Rep. Bill Johnson (R-OH) and state lawmakers couldn't save GM's Lordstown facility.
Today marks the end of an era.
The largest GM plant in the United States closes. After it finished its final Chevy Cruze, the lights go out and 1,700 workers head to the unemployment line.
Over five decades of labor and manufacturing gone.
GM planned to idle the 6.2 million-square-foot plant on Friday, but the spokesperson said production was slightly ahead of schedule.
The automaker announced a major restructuring in November, including the closure of four US plants and another in Canada. It said it would cut 8,000 US salaried and contract jobs, representing a 15% reduction in its workforce.
The Lordstown plant is the first of the four US plants GM is closing. It had 1,435 hourly workers last year at the time of the plant closing announcement.
GM said that 417 of those workers have already accepted transfers to other plants, and another 80 have requested transfers and are waiting to see the jobs available to them. Workers who move will get up to $30,000 in transfer assistance from the company.
A plant in Baltimore is set to close next month. Another in Warren, Michigan, is due to shut in August. Those two transmission plants have about 500 employees between them, and 50 workers have accepted transfers. The Hamtramck plant, the last factory GM operates in Detroit, was originally due to close later this year but will now stay open until January 2020. It has 1,350 hourly workers, about 600 of whom have accepted transfers.
In total, more than 1,000 of the 3,300 US hourly workers whose plants are being closed have accepted transfers to other plants.
The jobs report comes out on the day of GM closing. Trump and Mary Barra of GM.
The decision to close the four US plants has led to blowback across the political spectrum. But General Motors says it's necessary so the company can invest more money in the cars of the future.
Last week, the United Auto Workers union sued General Motors over its plans to shutter three of the plants, including Lordstown. The union claims that the decision violates the union's labor contract.
It's asking the court to order GM to reverse the closures. It's also seeking damages for affected employees, including back wages and benefits.
GM said in a statement last week that the company has not violated the provisions of its labor contract with the union.
The metro Youngstown area includes Ohio communities of Warren, Niles, Austintown, Lordstown, Salem, Campbell, Boardman, Canfield and Columbiana. The area also include Pennsylvania communities like Sharon, New Castle and New Wilmington.
Youngstown's city population is 82,000 residents. The region has 2.4 million people. The area is within a drive to Cleveland, Akron, Canton and Pittsburgh.
The area is part of the Rust Belt. The region is depressed. Due to manufacturing loss, the regions suffered significant drops in population. The region is prone to crime, economic poverty and lack of resources for people.
It's call the "dead end of America."
The Ohio Turnpike (Interstate 80) faces the Lordstown GM facility.
The main highways that cover Youngstown include The Ohio Turnpike which carries a majority of Interstate 80 (until Austintown) and some of Interstate 76 (towards the Ohio/Pennsylvania line). In edition, Interstate 680 which serves downtown Youngstown, Ohio State Route 11, Ohio State Route 62, U.S. Highway 422 and Interstate 376 (in Pennsylvania).
The Ohio Turnpike and Pennsylvania Turnpike serves as a connector to a majority of communities.
The majority of Interstate 76, 80 and 90 are toll roads.
This impacts that region. That means those who live in Ohio and Pennsylvania will suffer cause of this plant closing.
Mary Barra and GM executives are taking home billions while the average worker for the automotive company takes the pinkslip.
Okay, 2020 is coming, Sherrod Brown is considering a run for president. Trump will make more appearances in Ohio during the start of the campaign season.
Remember these names when you're heading to the polls.

Robert Sylvester Kelly was interviewed by CBS This Morning/OWN host Gayle King.
This may be one his final interviews.
R. Kelly wanted to tell his story. He ended get outraged over the controversy.
King also sat down with two young women who currently live with the singer, Azriel Clary and Joycelyn Savage, in an interview that will air Thursday, March 7 on "CBS This Morning." Savage's parents have accused R. Kelly of kidnapping their daughter. She said she's living with the singer on her own free will.
R. Kelly also faces accusations of maintaining a sex cult. Friends and family members believe Clary and Savage are a part of it.
During the interview, King had to calm the singer down. And of course, his explosion of temper.
CBS News released the partial transcript of the interview.
Gayle King: They are still talking about you with underage girls. Do you still sit here and say you have never been with underage girls. Can you really say that?
R. Kelly: I sit here and say this: I had two cases back then that I said in the beginning of the interview that I would not talk about because of my ongoing case now.
Gayle King: Ok.
R. Kelly: Fair enough, but I will tell you this: people are going back to my past, OK? That's exactly what they're doing. They're going back to the past, and they trying to add all of this stuff now to that. To make all of this stuff that's going on now feels real to people.
Gayle King: But the past is relevant with you with underage girls?
R. Kelly: Absolutely, no it's not. Because for one, I beat my case. When you beat something, you beat it.
Gayle King: You were acquitted.
R. Kelly: You can't double-jeopardy me like that. You can't. It's not fair. It's not fair to nobody. When you beat your case, you beat your case.
Gayle King: But I'm not talking about the one case in which you were acquitted. I'm talking about the other cases where women have come forward and said, "R. Kelly had sex with me when I was under the age of 18. R. Kelly was abusive to me emotionally and physically and verbally. R. Kelly took me in a black room where unspeakable things happened." This is what they're saying about you.
R. Kelly: Not true.
Gayle King: These aren't old rumors.
After he got out of the county, R. Kelly heads to the Chicago McDonald's restaurant where many of his accuser claim they met him.
R. Kelly: Not true. Whether they're old rumors, new rumors, future rumors, not true.
Gayle King: Correct me if I'm wrong that you've never held anybody against their will?
R. Kelly: I don't need to. Why would I? How stupid would it be for R. Kelly, with all I've been through in my way, way past, to hold somebody, let alone 4, 5, 6, 50, you said – how stupid would I be to do that?
Gayle King: I didn't say you were holding –
R. Kelly: That's stupid, guys! Is this camera on me?
Gayle King: Yes, it's on.
R. Kelly: That's stupid! Use your common sense. Forget the blogs, forget how you feel about me. Hate me if you want to, love me if you want. But just use your common sense. How stupid would it be for me, with my crazy past and what I've been through – oh right now I just think I need to be a monster and hold girls against their will, chain them up in my basement, and don't let them eat, don't let them out, unless they need some shoes down the street from their uncle!
Gayle King: Robert –
R. Kelly: Stop it. You don't quit playing. Quit playing. I didn't do this stuff! This is not me! I'm fighting for my fucking life!
Good luck on convincing a partial jury.
Singer was placed in the county lockup again for failure to pay child support. His ex-wife Andrea Kelly has called upon the court to place him in the lockup for failure to pay for his children.
Kelly attended the child supporting hearing while he was out on his "get out free card."
Kelly faces 10 charges of aggravated sexual abuse but he's maintained he did nothing wrong. He plead not guilty. The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
The singer has been facing allegations for years. Since he's been acquitted of kiddie porn, Kelly has maintained this lifestyle which some believe is a sex cult.
Joycelyn Savage and Azriel Clary who will have their interview on Friday deny they are being brainwashed by R. Kelly.
The singer on his part claims that their parents "sold" them to him.
Man this is going to be one of the most controversial interviews in American history.
Corrupt Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu faces a court hearing.
A reminder to those who are attacking Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) with claims they're anti-Semitic, you're gaslighting.
For one thing, you don't pledge allegiance to the state of Israel. You can criticize the brutal, dehumanization, hateful agenda of the Israeli government. You can say that you hate Israel.
You can basically say that you want Israel wiped off the map.
It's not anti-Semitic.
What's anti-Semitic is the brutal attack of 11 innocent lives inside a Pittsburgh synagogue. A man who harbored hatred of the religion went into the Tree of Life Synagogue and opened fire in November 2018.
What's anti-Semitic is a handful of lawmakers also claiming that billionaire activist George Soros is a "puppet master" to the progressive movement. Soros and his family got death threats and a terrorist sent bombs to his home.
Criticizing Israel isn't anti-Semitic.
Having American lawmakers pledge loyalty to Israel and denouncing those who refuse to do so as anti-Semitic is..."drum roll," anti-Semitic.
Yeah, the American Israeli Public Affairs Committee (known as AIPAC) has been a major influence peddler in Washington. Democrats and Republicans alike take billions from this lobbyist group.
They were incorporated in the influence peddling of denouncement of the Iranian Nuclear Deal.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was served for corruption. Netanyahu is an Israeli politician serving as the 9th and current Prime Minister of Israel since 2009, previously holding the position from 1996 to 1999. Netanyahu is also currently a member of the Knesset and the Chairman of the Likud party. He is the first Israeli Prime Minister born in Israel after the establishment of the state.
The Israeli Attorney General announced his intent to file indictments against Netanyahu on bribe and fraud charges in three different cases. Netanyahu would become the first sitting prime minister in Israeli history to be charged with a crime.
NBC News report that Netanyahu dismissed the charges as "fake news."
The prime minister faces one count of bribery and three counts of breach of trust.
"The Attorney General, Avihai Mandelblit, has informed the Prime Minister, Mr. Benjamin Netanyahu, through his attorney, that he is considering indicting him on several criminal charges," according to a statement by Ministry of Justice spokesman Adi Livni.
Prosecutors would have to go forward with a pre-indictment hearing before Netanyahu is formally charged.
"It should be noted that the decision regarding an indictment is not yet final, since the Attorney General will offer to conduct a pre-indictment hearing before reaching any final decision, according to Israeli law," according to Livni's statement.
With elections just six weeks away, Netanyahu called the prosecution's announcement "outrageous" and an "unprecedented witch hunt" carried out by his liberal opponents.
The prime minister vowed to refute all allegations which he said are "blood libel."
Police have previously recommended indicting Netanyahu for bribery, fraud and breach of trust in three different cases.
Netanyahu claimed his predecessors have received small gifts similar to what he has been accused of taking, but were not charged.
"If it not Bibi — there’s no investigation," Netanyahu said, referring to himself by his nickname.
The most serious allegations against Netanyahu involve his relationship with Shaul Elovitch, the controlling shareholder of Israel's telecom giant Bezeq.
Police recommended an indictment in the case based on evidence collected that confidants of Netanyahu promoted regulatory changes worth hundreds of millions of dollars to Bezeq. In exchange, they believe Netanyahu used his connections with Elovitch to receive positive press coverage on Bezeq's popular subsidiary news site, Walla. Police have said their investigation concluded that Netanyahu and Elovitch engaged in a "bribe-based relationship."
Police also recommended charges be brought against Elovitch, members of his family and members of his Bezeq management team.
Police have previously recommended indicting Netanyahu on corruption charges in two other cases. One involves accepting gifts from billionaire friends, and the second revolves around alleged offers of advantageous legislation for a major newspaper in return for favorable coverage.
Netanyahu, 69, who is serving his third consecutive term as prime minister and his fourth overall, has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing and called the various allegations against him a witch hunt aimed at removing him from office.
The attorney general's decision to publish his conclusions 39 days prior to the general election on April 9 is raising questions about what impact it can have on the outcome of the vote.
Donald Trump, with whom Netanyahu has forged a close connection, said "[Netanyahu's] done a great job as prime minister" in response to a question in Hanoi, where he was holding a summit with the leader of North Korea.
"He's tough, he's smart, he's strong," Trump said of the Israeli leader, but didn’t comment on the indictment.
Netanyahu rushed back Wednesday from a diplomatic mission to Moscow, and a meeting with President Vladimir Putin, to prepare for his expected rebuttal to the charges on Thursday.
Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit is Netanyahu's former cabinet secretary.
While no stranger to scandal, this was the first time Netanyahu faced the possibility of being formally charged with a crime.
Netanyahu and his family's luxurious lifestyle — often at taxpayers’ expense — has come under scrutiny before. Nearly six years ago, Netanyahu was criticized for reportedly spending $127,000 in public funds for a special sleeping cabin for a five-and-a-half hour flight to London for Margaret Thatcher's funeral. That came just months after the Netanyahu family's taxpayer-funded food budget included $2,700 for artisanal pistachio and French vanilla ice cream.
Man (left) seriously injured by reckless motorist.
Jack Kelly might never walk again because of this asshole who literally caused a nearly fatal car accident in Central Florida.
This incident became the latest shocking event in America.
The 19-year old driver was critically injured in the accident last Thursday in Sarasota. A motel surveillance camera captured the crash.
Shocking footage shows suspect's car clipping off Jack Kelly's car and then fleeing.
The suspect is a 24 year old man who had no business being behind the wheel. The driver of a Kia mini van drove into the path of Kelley's Audi car. The speed on that road was 45 miles per hour.
The Kia mini van clipped the vehicle. It caused the Audi to crash.
The Audi flipped four times and Kelley was partially ejected through the sunroof. The man was a standout from a high school basketball team.
The man suffered a traumatic brain injury.
Slimeball caught.
Michael Kelly, the father of the injured driver was angry that the suspect was caught.
He told the junk food media that his son's life will be forever changed.
"My son is going to be in ICU for a long time. So I'm not relieved, I'm glad they caught him but I'm not happy. I'm glad he's going to serve his justice, but that doesn't give me any satisfaction."
The suspect will face felonious assault (fleeing the scene of an accident), driving without a valid license and criminal assault. If the victim dies, it's bumped to aggravated homicide and vehicular assault.
The charges could carry up to LIFE in the iron college. So far he is guaranteed five to ten years.
John Hickenlooper toasts. He's in the race as well.
Former Colorado governor decides to get into the race.
John Hickenlooper decided to make a run for the Democratic nomination. He casting himself as "can do type of guy," the former Colorado governor will be in a crowded field all vying for the chance to lead this divided nation.
Donald J. Trump has a 70% chance of winning reelection. He is by far the most divisive human being to ever lead this nation. He is a formidable opponent and is willing to destroy this country to win.
As a two-term governor, Hickenlooper has said that modern politics is a "crisis of division."
"Probably the worst period of division that we've had in this country since the Civil War," said Hickenlooper during a taping of GMA with George Stephanopoulos.
Hickenlooper describes himself as a progressive, but will it appeal to fans who looking for a candidate that will not knee toe to the "status quo."
Do you believe John Hickenlooper is ready to be President of the United States (Expect trolls to pick the dumbest answers)
The 67 year old former governor was born John Wright Hickenlooper, Jr. He is a politician and businessman who served as the 42nd Governor of Colorado between 2011 and 2019. He was born in Narberth, Pennsylvania, Hickenlooper is a graduate of Wesleyan University. He was married to Helen Thrope from 2002 until 2015. He has son from that marriage. He is currently married to Robin Pringle.
He studied as a geologist and soon entered the business in brewery.
He would be the co-founder of Wynkoop Brewing Company. He would locate his business in LoDo, a neighborhood of Denver. He would soon find politics.
He was elected the 43rd mayor of Denver in 2003 and served two terms, until 2011. He would end up running for the nomination of governor when Bill Ritter retired.
He would defeat the Republican nominee Dan Maes and far-white Constitution Party nominee Tom Tancredo in a sweeping victory.
He would also have another close call election when he took on Bob Beauprez and won.
Now as governor of Colorado, he was there when Aurora happened. The 2012 mass shooting at a movie theater sparked a sharp discussion on gun violence. His term was subjected to massive floods, wildfires, dangerous blizzards and Republican control of the statehouse.
Under his belt, he seen a handful of mass shootings. He's tried hard to get Colorado on board of gun control. He couldn't get the support of Republicans and some Democrats.
He says that he may not have the excitement of Bernie Sanders or Kamala Harris, but he will be a candidate people will love to know.
Jan Mayer of the New Yorker had an explosive report about America's Most Watched cable news network.
Mayer wrote the bombshell story about Fox News running offense for Donald J. Trump. While it will continue to deny it and often dismiss this a "fake news", Fox News is now officially the propaganda of that imbecile.
Roger Ailes' slimy ass fed Trump questions before the first Republican debate in Cleveland. Sean "Softball" Hannity was already pro-Trump before he went into this bullshit about giving Republican candidates equal airtime.
The former co-president of Fox News Bill Shine was an enabler and close buddy of the softball.
That's why it's notable that the softball got unfiltered access to Trump.
Ailes who died in 2017, left the network amid sexual harassment allegations was planning on working with Trump to create a news network that competed with Fox News.
Trump ranked his favorite hosts by a number. He called Chris Wallace a 6. Softball Hannity a 10. And gone gaga for Steve Doocy as he labeled him a 12.
Ailes also got into Trump's ear about the CNN and AT&T merger. Gary Cohen kept blocking the attempt of a merger because of Trump being upset over the coverage.
For years, Rupert Murdoch have longed for a role in the government. The Australian-born billionaire has often played an impact on global outreach. When he started Fox News in October 1997, he wanted to reshape the news. He wanted to bring a tabloid, "balanced" and controlled operation.
Picking Ailes was the decision. Ailes being a divisive figure in his own right shaped the news and gave it a platform for Republicans, conservative agitators and individuals who support them.
Trump has so-far controlled the network and visa versa. Fox is rewarded with coverage of the imbecile and the network in return gets the ratings.
Fox News is the official state propaganda of Donald J. Trump.
Luke Perry was grounded and sweet. He told the best stories and set a great example of how an actor can handle success and fame with grace and humility. R.I.P., Luke.
Luke Perry... you were a joyful and vibrant soul. You will be missed but most certainly your legacy will be remembered forever. Rest in love and peace, friend. #Riverdale
— Riverdale Writers Room (@RiverdaleWriter) March 4, 2019
Born Coy Luther Perry III in Mansfield, Ohio, and raised in the small community of Fredericktown, Perry moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting soon after graduating from high school.
The same year as his "Loving" appearance, Perry landed a role on another soap, this time portraying Kenny on "Another World."
But it was his role as seemingly bad boy Dylan McKay on Fox's "Beverly Hills 90210" in 1990 which shot Perry into the atmosphere.
The series was both wildly popular and also criticized because of its willingness to take on topics such as teens being sexually active.
"We have done some shows that dealt with pretty some touchy topics and people weren't altogether happy with how we dealt with it," Perry said during an appearance on "The Arsenio Hall Show" in the 1990s. "I thought we handled it pretty intelligently and we were willing to answer the questions we brought up."
Heartthrob Dylan McKay.
Perry's character was so popular among fans that in 1991 an expected crowd of 2,000 at a Florida mall turned into a stampede of 10,000 when he appeared at an autograph signing.
Several people were hospitalized and the mall was forced to shut its doors after the chaos.
The actor famously left the show in Season 6, seeking to break away from the Dylan character, but returned in Season 9.
Perry also appeared on the big screen with roles in films including "Good Intentions," "Red Wing" and "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," which later became a hit television series.
He made his Broadway debut in 2002 as Brad in "The Rocky Horror Picture Show."
But it was the small screen that showed the actor the most love, with roles on "The Incredible Hulk," "Jeremiah," "Oz," "Windfall" and "John from Cincinnati."
Perry is in director Quentin Tarantino's upcoming film "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood," which set for release in July.
The son of Osama bin Laden is slated to be the new leader of al-Qaeda.
The Sunni-militant group al Qaeda is regrouping. Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri and Hamza bin Laden vow revenge.
In 2011, Barack Obama ordered the U.S. Navy Seals to carry out a hit on Hamza's father Osama bin Laden. The strike of Abbottabad, Pakistan netted the capture of the world's most wanted terrorist leader.
Bin Laden's death crippled al-Qaeda.
However it didn't get rid of the group. For years, al-Zawahiri has been grooming Hamza to lead.
Known as Hamza bin Osama bin Mohammed bin Awad bin Laden, he is one of the 30 children of Osama bin Laden. He quickly became involved in al Qaeda at an early age.
At age 17, he married a daughter of Tanzanian terrorist plotter Abdullah Ahmed Abdullah.
He also married a woman who was the daughter of 9/11 plot organizer and hijacker Mohamed Atta.
The State Department says, and it's willing to pay up to $1 million for information on his whereabouts.
Osama bin Laden's death didn't cripple al-Qaeda. They still exist but they're working on covering their tracks.
"Hamza bin Laden ... is emerging as a leader" in the al Qaeda franchise, the department said in a statement. "He has released audio and video messages on the Internet, calling on his followers to launch attacks against the United States and its Western allies, and he has threatened attacks against the United States in revenge for the May 2011 killing of his father by military forces."
The State Department said items seized from the elder bin Laden's hiding place in Pakistan at the time of his death indicated he was grooming Hamza bin Laden to replace him as al Qaeda's leader.
As American officials hunt him down, UN member states are required to freeze Hamza bin Laden's assets, and comply with a travel ban and arms embargo, according to the State Department Bureau of Counterterrorism and Countering Violent Extremism.
U.S. officials estimate Hamza bin Laden is between the ages of 30 and 33.
Saudi Arabia has revoked Hamza bin Laden's citizenship, official newspaper Um al-Qura reported Friday, citing a royal order issued to the Interior Ministry.
The fact that he would leave all his luxury properties in a car only makes him stupid.
The fact that he survived a shooting and still runs into this bad luck only assures that his life is going to be cut short by either gun violence or the iron college.
I am big fan of Young Dolph.
The rapper was robbed of his jewels. He lost over $500,000 in jewelry while he and his entourage were eating at an Atlanta area Cracker Barrel.
Adolph Thornton told the police the thieves smashed into his vehicle and took roughly a hefty amount of jewelry and other belongings.
The Memphis-born artist told the Atlanta Metro Police the thieves smashed the window of his custom camouflage Mercedes-Benz G-Class SUV in the restaurant parking lot on Wednesday.
They made off with his Richard Mille watch worth a hot $250,000, a Patek Phillipe watch worth $85,000 and two diamond chains worth an estimate value of $57,000 and $27,000.
The metro police determined that the thieves were trying to see if Dolph left the vehicle unlocked.
They tried to enter through the back of the vehicle. When all of that failed, they decided to smash the car's window and making off with the goods.
His alarm went off twice. The second time, he went outside to see the vehicle was broken into.
He has a pair of sunglasses from Cartier worth $24,000 and $700, a glock estimated value $700, an Apple Macbook estimate value $1,000 (possible music storage), an iPad estimated value $700 with Airpods, and a Pirelli backpack, an estimate value of $500.
He also had $2,000 in cash inside the vehicle.
Dolph, who is the CEO of Paper Route Empire Music is an associate of Gucci Mane and his 1017 Igloo Ice label.
Dolph survived multiple attempts on his life. The first attempt was his bulletproof vehicle had 100 rounds inside it.
The second time inside a Los Angeles shopping center, he was shot four times. He survived that attempt on his life. Associates along with Black Youngsta and Yo Gotti were criminally charged.
Republicans and Democrats continue their relentless attacks against Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), a woman of color and proud Muslim-American. She is now attacked by hicks. West Virginia Republicans post an offensive image of her in the state capitol.
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) are once again targeted by the far-white for being the first two Muslim women to serve the House of Representatives.
Last month Republicans and Democrats were upset that Omar was criticizing the American Israeli Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) for funding lawmakers in their policy decisions.
Omar a strong supporter of the Boycott Deinvestment and Sanctions movment said that the Israeli government and American lawmakers paint critics as anti-Semitic.
Omar also was on a hit list. She was one of the many targets of this white terrorist who was once a U.S. Coast Guard.
An anti-Muslim poster likening Omar to the 9/11 terrorist attack sparked outrage this weekend. This occurred at the West Virginia state capitol and it was sponsored by the state's Republican Party.
The city of Charleston, West Virginia. Charleston is the largest city in the state. It has 89,000 residents. The state of West Virginia has 93% white population.
The poster depicted the Twin Towers on September 11, 2001 and the words "Never Forget - you said..." imposed over the image of the burning buildings. Underneath is a picture of the lawmaker with the words - "I am the proof - you have forgotten."
The poster was displayed prominently in the rotunda as as part of an event the Republicans held.
Pamphlets accompanying the display read "The Four Stages of Islamic Conquest" and "Readin, Writin' and Jihadin."
The Council on American-Islamic Relations and many Democratic lawmakers (minus Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY)) condemned the event.
The Republican Party who were raising such a fuss over Tlaib calling Trump a "motherfucker" and Omar for criticizing Netanyahu and AIPAC have not said a word about this.
Omar has.
No wonder why I am on the “Hitlist” of a domestic terrorist and “Assassinate Ilhan Omar” is written on my local gas stations.
Look no further, the GOP's anti-Muslim display likening me to a terrorist rocks in state capitols and no one is condemning them! https://t.co/0ouCaloWqh
Being opposed to Netanyahu and the occupation is not the same as being anti-Semitic. I am grateful to the many Jewish allies who have spoken out and said the same.
We must be willing to combat hate of all kinds while also calling out oppression of all kinds. I will do my best to live up to that. I hope my colleagues will join me in doing the same.
My Americanness is questioned by the President and the @GOP on a daily basis, yet my colleagues remain silent. I know what it means to be American and no one will ever tell me otherwise.
I am told everyday that I am anti-American if I am not pro-Israel. I find that to be problematic and I am not alone. I just happen to be willing to speak up on it and open myself to attacks.
Our democracy is built on debate, Congresswoman! I should not be expected to have allegiance/pledge support to a foreign country in order to serve my country in Congress or serve on committee. The people of the 5th elected me to serve their interest. I am sure we agree on that! https://t.co/gglAS4FVJW
.@IlhanMN is a Member of Congress elected by the people of Minnesota. GOP leadership should immediately apologize for the outrageous racist attack on her that equates her with 9/11 terrorists. That is shameful. The picture below is the one Americans should know. pic.twitter.com/W6eSzMngVG
This is the image of @IlhanMN that the world should be seeing, not the hateful, anti-Muslim propaganda targeting her. We must condemn these attacks and reject religious bigotry without exception. pic.twitter.com/upzgl6bCLq
The inhumane racism and death threats thrown at my friend Rep. @Ilhan are acts of terrorism. Period. We will overcome these threats to our humanity just like we've done time & time again. We are resilient. Ilhan - we got your back. https://t.co/IVOeFATIdw
A core promise of America is the vigilant protection of free speech and the security of those who engage in it. While I strongly object to some of Rep. @ilhan Omar’s recent comments, the disgusting display in the WV Capitol and threats on her life are antithetical to our values. pic.twitter.com/R8qE6UbpDE

We must stand united to condemn religious bigotry. The anti-Muslim bigotry and hate expressed towards Rep. Ilhan Omar comparing her to 9/11 terrorists is reprehensible. https://t.co/qTHIo73o35
The use of disgusting, outrageous, and offensive stereotypes must be condemned across the board - whether Islamophobic or anti-Semitic. https://t.co/SDwMq64tfC
And those who called out Republicans last month for their phony outrage.
This week @WVGOP called Rep @IlhanMN a terrorist & ignited a spike in death threats against her
Rather than condemn such bigotry & violence & apologize for the things they openly said—the Right has instead found new ways to attack her for things she never said
This crazy bitch named Brigitte Gabriel (born Hanan Qahwaji) also has stirred the pot as well.
Ilhan Omar is a danger to our nation's national security:
1.She married her brother to commit immigration fraud
2. She has allegiance/ties to terrorist groups that have declared war on the United States
3. She has clearly proven to be a raging anti-Semite
This troll needs to lose her verification. She does not deserve any recognition for her hate group, Act for America. The Southern Poverty Law Center call it a notorious anti-Muslim hate group.
We can only hope Twitter and Facebook put an end to Gabriel's hateful agenda. They need to shut this shit down.
Again, Democrats are not going to win. They are still embolden to the "status quo" of politics.
The Justice Democrats are targeting some of the Democrats who are considered to cozy with Republicans.
If the Democrats continue to criticize Ilhan Omar, Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, Lucy McBath, Rashida Tlaib and Antonio Delgado, they will only make progressives sit out 2020.
The Republicans will play upon the culture war to win this election. Trump's CPAC speech has already signaled this as a key to their victory. Keep the far-white riled up all the way to November 2020.
Notice no responses from Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA), Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY). They too busy being racist assholes to notice the West Virginia Republicans running that ridiculous bullshit.
