When Mitt Goes In, Paul Goes Out!

The Flipper says he more like the Trumpster.

With job approval hovering around the mid-40s, Donald J. Trump got his MAGA back. The inept leader and the Republican Party hope the Blue Wave isn't a tsunami.

Former presidential nominee and perennial candidate Mitt Romney says he he is more of a conservative on issues that he once said he wasn't.

The former governor of Massachusetts and now candidate running for U.S. senate for the state of Utah once again proves to America, he doesn't have principles.

Romney said that he was going to be the anti-Trump candidate. He immediately left San Diego to move to Holliday, Utah. He decided to run for the Senate after Sen. Orin Hatch (R-UT) decided to retire. Trump was hoping Hatch could carry another six years.

Romney is hoping this is going to be an easy ride. Seeing that Utah is a staunchly Republican state, he hopes people won't complain about him carpetbagging and flip-flopping.

His opponent Jenny Wilson needs your support. The Democrats better put money in this race. She has the potential to beat this guy. If Doug Jones can win, so can she.

Romney's old running mate may resign from the House of Representatives.
Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) could be exiting soon.
Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) is the current Speaker of The House.  He is rumored to be leaving Congress soon. The fellow Republican, Rep. Mark Amodei of Nevada is an embattled lawmaker. He said that the House speaker might resign in June. He is hoping that constituents in his district will be motivate to support him.

Ryan's challenger Randy Bryce doesn't care who Republicans line up, he is ready for them. Bryce has mounted a series challenge against Ryan.

Ryan who faced harsh criticism for passing the American Jobs and Tax Cut Act and the recent omnibus spending bill is being hit for being inept in leadership.
Randy Bryce hopes to unseat House Speaker Paul Ryan.
Ryan is leaning on shooting survivor and David Duke without the baggage Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA) to become the next Speaker of the House.

Scalise was badly injured in a mass shooting last year. Since his survival, he continues to support gun violence. He continues to take money from the NRA.

He doesn't give two fucks about the victims of Parkland, Florida or Alton Sterling.

In the words of David Hogg, "Get your resumes ready!"

Please register to vote. If you want Trump and Congress to be held accountable for their actions, it's time to vote their asses out.

Cop Walk In The Alton Sterling Shooting!

No justice for Alton Sterling.

Why am I not surprised?

The Attorney General of Louisiana announced today that he will not charge two cops in the death of Alton Sterling. His death sparked outrage in Baton Rouge. It also sparked a terrorist to massacre three cops in the aftermath.

Remember Donald J. Trump, Republicans, the NRA, the so called Blue Lives Matter folks, Russia, Cambridge Analytica and the White extremist movement labeled the alt-right sowed discourse and support for the killer cops. They claimed that DeRay McKesson and Black Lives Matter were responsible for the deaths.

Trump is now the inept leader of this country. Tensions are higher than ever.

His "law and order" stance is sparking outrage and this Midterm could shake up things if Democrats are motivated this time to vote them out,

In 2016, Sterling was standing by a convenience store selling mixtapes. People had robbed him before and he carried a firearm on him. Well someone called the law on him after he allegedly threatened a guy.
Dirty cops walk.
Howie Lake II and Blake Salamoni arrived and questioned Sterling. The cops claimed he resisted arrest. They would slam him on the hood of the car and pin him to the ground. Soon one of the shouted, "He's got a gun."

One of the cops would say, "He's got a gun! Gun! If you fucking move, I swear to God!"

One would say, "he's going for the gun" and then they plugged him three times.

Sterling was shot in the chest and was immediately killed. The family demanded justice for Alton. They didn't get it. The two cops can now get their jobs back and back pay.

The city of Baton Rouge might have to shelved out money for personal damages.

And none of this would bring back the hundreds of men and women of color killed by law enforcement.
The image haunts me.
The National Rifle Association doesn't support Black gun ownership.

Killer Mike fucked up his career but appearing on NRAtv throwing his support to the gun lobby. He knows that if Alton Sterling or any Black man held a gun, they have a 95% chance of being killed on the spot.

Black Lives Matter hasn't went away. It is a part of a growing resistance movement towards Republicans and Democrats who support the genocide of people of color. The movement along with Time's Up and Never Again are hoping to inspire voters to turnout and put a checks and balance on Trump and Congress.

The madness must stop. Black men being killed by police is a problem. When the law couldn't kill a white school shooter in Maryland, a white school shooter in Florida and a bomber in Austin, something is wrong. When they refuse to call them terrorist there is a problem.

Alton Sterling, you may inspire people to vote. Hopefully we can vote these worthless lawmakers out of office.

A Play Based On The Fake!

The right spreads a fake photo of Parkland shooting survivor Emma Gonzalez ripping apart the constitution. It was actually a target sheet.

Emma Gonzalez made the news this week. After her keynote speak at the March for Our Lives rally Saturday, the far right has now set their sights on her and David Hogg once again.

The right is playing on the fears of a teenage resistance.






The teens are hoping to keep momentum going. As victims of mass shootings, America is calling for more measures to prevent gun violence.

On estimate 96 people are killed a day by firearms and most lawmakers offer nothing but "thoughts and prayers" to every incident.

Whether is a mass shooting or a police shooting of an unarmed person of color, Americans are getting tired of loose gun laws and politicians taking money from the NRA and the gun lobby.

The "good guy with a gun" argument isn't going to work anymore.

The arming teachers, placing more resource officers and more concealed carry laws aren't working.

The videos by Dana Loesch, Dan Bongino, Ted Nugent, Colion Noir, Charlie Daniels and Wayhe LaPierre are disgraceful.

People are getting tired of the NRA and those who support the option of death.

Rep. Steve King (R-IA) fired off a posting on social media attacking Emma's patch with the Cuban flag. He also said that then teen are being influenced by far left activists and billionaire George Soros.









David fired back.












Hopefully, the Iowa Democrats line up a candidate strong enough to defeat this white extremist. That goober has posted a cache of racist shit and Iowans should be embarrassed by this do nothing.

Washed up actor named Adam Baldwin also spreading a fake gif of Emma ripping apart the U.S. Constitution.




Turns out that it was a target sheet and they did it for Teen Vogue magazine.

It hasn't stop the far right from posting that shit on social media.




Get your resumes ready.

This bullshit has to stop. We cannot live in a country where you regarded as an enemy for standing up. They want to silence survivors of gun violence.

I don't think so.

Homey don't play that!

You folks on the right may live in an alternative universe where Tucker Carlson, Laura Ingraham, Sean "Softball" Hannity, Alex Jones, Matt Drudge and Rush Limbaugh control your minds, but the rest of the world isn't buying the bullshit.

The bullshit peddlers are trying rewrite history and we will not allow it.

Vote these lawmakers out.

Turn off the noise.

Linda Brown Passed Away!

Linda Brown (left) passed away. Her father Oliver aided by the NAACP and Thurgood Marshall successfully sued the Topeka School Board in the Supreme Court and won.
Thank you Linda Brown for breaking barriers. The famous child involved in the Brown v. Board of Education [of Topeka, Kansas] has passed away.

Because of the arguments of Thurgood Marshall, the Supreme Court overturned the controversial Plessy v. Ferguson ruling which made segregation legal.

The Brown decision made American schools become more intergrated.

Linda died in Topeka today. Her sister Cheryl Brown Henderson confirms her sister passed away at the age 76 years old.

Linda was a young girl when he father Oliver wanted her to go to a better school in the city. The school board rejected his request on the basis that black and white students couldn't go to school together.
Rev. Oliver Brown and his family.
Oliver sued the board and urged three other families to combine their lawsuits together. The case went from state to federal within two years.

The 1954 U.S. Supreme Court decision broke barriers.

It also caused a backlash. The backlash was White flight.

Suburbia grew because of white people getting upset over the decision. They fled the city and grew their communities out of anger towards government forcing integration of students.

This was later enforced through the 1971 Swann v. Charlotte-Mecklenberg Board of Education.
Linda and sister Cheryl Brown.
Though Linda managed to change the world, white America found a loophole.

The established decided to leave the cities and created suburbs. Then soon the malls, department stores and discount box stores would soon move towards the suburbs.

It left the cities to minorities and the underclass. It created the Rust Belt in the Northeastern and Midwest.

Donald J. Trump is the whitelash of race relations.

Shooting From The Hip!

Remington going under.
Monday is the day of a long work week. So here is a quick briefing.

Remington, the country's oldest gun manufacturer is on the ropes. The gun industry is taking a hit from Donald J. Trump.

The company filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. The company is clearly citing poor sales and lawsuits mounting from victims of gun violence.

If Hillary Clinton won, the right and the NRA would be ruling up white men to stockpile weapons of war.

Killer Mike now is "clearing up" his remarks after tap dancing on Colion Noir's NRAtv show. The rap community dismissed him.

Killer Mike fiercely defended the 2nd Amendment and said that he believes Blacks should be armed to protect themselves. Unfortunately, the rapper forgot that the NRA hasn't back Black gun ownership. Philando Castile and Alton Sterling are perfect examples of how the NRA failed in defending their right to be gun owners.

Stormy Daniels told her story and 60 Minutes won the night. The former adult actress tells Anderson Cooper her story and it details how Trump often compares women to his daughter Ivanka.

Obviously many on the right choose to ignore this because they believe Trump cannot do anything wrong.

Trump did one thing right this Monday. He expels 60 Russians from the United States in response to the chemical attack that gravely injured a former double agent and his daughter in the United Kingdom.

In the words of David Hogg to lawmakers, agitators and cynics: Get your resume ready.

Stormy Nights Ahead!

Stormy Daniels is telling her story.
Trump's alleged mistress will talk on CBS tonight.

The highly anticipated 60 Minutes interview with Stormy Daniels is the most talked about subject on most news outlets (except Fox News).

CNN's Anderson Cooper will talk to her and the lawyer who bring the allegations to the forefront.

Daniels says that she is willing to talk now that Trump broke his word on the non disclosure agreement.

Trump allegedly had an affair on Melania with Stormy in 2016. While she was pregnant with Barron, Melanie didn't know that Trump played the game on her.

Trump and his lawyer Michael Cohen paid Stormy $130,000 in October 2016, a month before the election.
Trump heads to Washington without Melania.
By the way, Congress passed a sex trafficking bill awaiting Donald J. Trumps signature. Of course, this could affect Backpage, Craiglist and social media sites that advocate the promotion of prostitution.

The victim could sue the websites if they are exploited by the sex trafficker.

That could become a legal issue for the fact sex workers want to sell their services. They believe that Republican and Democratic men are likely the ones using sex workers.

Trump and many lawmakers are hypocrites.

D Is For Dork!

A big dork said to gun violence victims, learn CPR.
The most dorkest person to ever graced America's television said teens should be more focused on learning CPR than marching against gun violence.

Rick Santorum was on CNN's State of The Union discussing the March for Our Lives rally.

“How about kids instead of looking to someone else to solve their problem, do something about maybe taking CPR classes or trying to deal with situations that when there is a violent shooter that you can actually respond to that,” Santorum said on CNN’s “State of the Union.”

That response earned him a rapid fire from lead protester and survivor Emma Gonzalez.




The rally was held yesterday and it demanded Congress to stop taking money from the National Rifle Association. They said that Congress should be more concerned about gun violence.

Thoughts and prayers aren't enough.

We need action and we need it now.

Time's up.

Killer Mike Riding In The NRA's Coon Wagon!

Killer Mike went to a coon's picnic.

The NRA runs out their newest homie. Besides that coon, Colion Noir, the rapper Killer Mike has decided to sell his rap career to the gun lobby.

Looks like I am no longer a supporter or fan of Run The Jewels.

This coon's picnic is the latest example of why the National Rifle Association is tone deaf to the message of the #NeverAgain movement.

In their lame response to David Hogg and the survivors of the Parkland massacre, Colion decides to round out a celebrity who once supported Bernie Sanders. Then he decided to support Jill Stein and Russian trolls.

The rapper never cared about Black gun ownership.

Cause if he did, he would have remembered Philando Castile.
Chump is a spokesman for the NRA.
Castile was a concealed carry citizen. He was pulled over by a dirty cop named Geronimo Yanez. The cop shot him in cold blood and got away with murder.

Oh he remembered.

Still appeared on NRATV with a grown ass man attacking a teen.

Let's get this straight. Killer Mike is an activist. His activism is well documented and recognized. He has been a target of conservative outrage.

Reminder: the world is watching. If you endorse and support money from the NRA, the young voters will hold you accountable and could vote your ass out.

I'm all for it.

And if they boycott Killer Mike and Run the Jewels, I'm all for it.

Jeezy: The Snow Is Melting!

Jeezy said he done trapping. He is retiring from the rap game.
Jay Jenkins, known as Jeezy is putting the mic down after he releases his last installment of the Thug Motivation series.

TM 104: Trust the Process is the final album release that Jeezy will release on Def Jam. The album hasn't a release date yet.



Jeezy came through the scene as Lil' J and he released his first album in 2001.

The album Thuggin' Under The Influence (T.U.I) was the debut release. It was released independently.

His second album Come Shop With Me would bring him into the mainstream.

He would sign to Bad Boy briefly to join the supergroup Boyz N Da Hood. He would soon leave the group and label. He jumped onto Def Jam and released his commercial debut album Let's Get It: Thug Motivation 101.

The album spawned major hits like Survivor with Akon and Go Crazy.

Then seven albums later, he would announce this will all come to an end.

Salute to the Snowman.

Jeezy is Atlanta's trapper.

March For Our Lives!


Today is the March for Our Lives rally. This is sponsored by the students of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School and Moms Demand Action.

The leading voices include: David Hogg, Cameron Kasky, Emma Gonzalez and Sarah Chadwick. They are the survivors of the February 14th mass shooting.
A terrorist killed 17 people before he was apprehended. He will be facing the death card if he is convicted. He is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Florida passed a watered down law making it 21 years old to purchase a semi automatic firearm. The law also calls for more armed security, firearm training for teachers and background checks.
The right have smeared the Parkland survivors. Now they have a chance to call out Alex Jones, Fox News, and The Drudge Report. They spread bullshit about the survivors.

Rick Scott, the governor and candidate for the U.S. senate is hoping that people forget about the mass shootings under his watch. He hopes people forget about Trayvon Martin, Jordan Davis and those unarmed Black people killed by the police.

He will be called out by the protesters today.

The students and teachers will rally in Washington, DC today. From 10am to 5pm, you will see rallies across the country demanding lawmakers from the state and federal level change the gun laws. They want them to denounce the NRA.

The NRA has lost numerous sponsors and their spokesmen Wayne LaPierre and Dana Loesch are under fire for the rhetoric.

They want to boycott organizations and groups that smear survivors of mass shootings

Hogg in particular is not putting up with the bullshit peddling from Infowars and its host Alex Jones. He is hoping that YouTube and Twitter put an end to the right wing kookspiracist and his garbage.
David Hogg and Emma Gonzalez.
Alex Jones and The Drudge Report have targeted Hogg in the past. They have trolled him and the survivors of Parkland in their attempts to discredit the march.

Many of the rallies will address the Donald J. Trump legacy. They will call for young people to know their representatives, register to vote and make it to the polls in November.

The calls for gun control have gotten stronger in the wake of the latest school shooting.

The young girl who was shot by a terrorist in a high school in Maryland has died. The rally will address the death of Jaelynn Willey. The 16 year old girl was a victim of domestic violence. The terrorist killed her and injured another teen. They will address the Austin bombing victim. Draylen Mason was a gifted musician who was killed by an unrepentant terrorist who shipped improvised explosives to the prominent African American communities.

You can view this live.

It's time to hold them accountable. Keep the pressure on the lawmakers.

Never again.

Budget Busters!

The budget falls on the GOP.
Republicans can't complain about fiscal responsibility. The party once again rammed through a 2,230 page bill through both chambers. It only had less than 1,000 minutes of time to read it.

The Republicans can not blame the Democrats for spending.




It's a Republican president, House, Senate and Supreme Court. Everything they wanted in their utopia.

The passing of a $1.3 trillion omnibus will end the government shutdown until late 2018, right after the elections.

Republicans couldn't muster enough of their own members to support their omnibus.

What's sad is the right will blame Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer for the actions of Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell and Donald J. Trump.

The funding the government has always been a contentious issue.

Trump might veto this bill and send the government into another shutdown.

He wants that stupid border wall. He wants to wrangle it with the DACA deal.

He can't get his own party to support the border wall. And it's a waste of money and just ridiculous to start a trade war with Mexico and China.

Charles Lazarus Passed Away!

Toys R Us founder Charles Lazarus died.

It killed him. The closing of Toys R Us killed him.

Charles Lazarus passed away yesterday. He died at the age of 94 years old.

The statement from Toys R Us.

“There have been many sad moments for Toys“R” Us in recent weeks, and none more heartbreaking than today’s news about the passing of our beloved founder, Charles Lazarus, after a period of declining health.”
“He visited us in New Jersey just last year and we will forever be grateful for his positive energy, passion for the customer and love for children everywhere. Our thoughts and prayers are with Charles’ family and loved ones,” Toys “R” Us said.
The founder of Toys R Us passed away only a few days after the toy giant filed for bankruptcy and liquidation.

The company leaving will hurt 25% of the toy industry. The tariffs imposed on China by Donald J. Trump will also cause grave effects on the retail industry..

The Toys R Us brand was founded in 1957 in New Jersey. Lazarus started the company initially as a children furniture store. He decided to add a few toys to keep children interested and the idea took off.

Toys R Us became a household brand with the famed mascot being Geoffory the Giraffe who told children that they never had to grow up.

The company sold the best toys and games. The biggest mistake the company made was the decision to go public through an investment firm called Bain Capital.

Bain stockpiled nearly $10 billion in debt for Toys R Us. The company spent years trying to paid off debtors. When they pulled in $6 billion in funds, the remaining was in the red.
Iconic mascot Geoffrey the Giraffe.
The company had to raise prices and it couldn't survive on lower prices as Walmart and Target.

It couldn't survive the delivery giant Amazon.

Children were not playing with LEGOS, Barbie, Monopoly, Transformers and Brats.

They found interest in electronics. It may have killed Toys R Us.

Now as Lazarus watched from the sidelines, he realized that the heartbreak of a company he started fades away. He couldn't take it anymore.

Now 31,000 workers are going to be out of their jobs. There is no more pension, 401K, healthcare and benefits.

Charles leaves behind two daughters and his second wife.

He will be missed like my days of childhood.
