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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

To undermine the president.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The Fox hit drama Empire keeps pulling in.

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

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

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

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

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

Today, the news broke that Jussie acknowledged his sexuality.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Smollett also signed a deal with Sony Urban this year.

Biggie: The Real King of New York!

The legend Biggie Smalls

Today marks another grave milestone in American music.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

BIGGIE: WE MISS YA!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

They'll never be a NIGGER

They'll never be a NIGGER

They'll never be a NIGGER in ΣΑΕ

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

They'll never be a NIGGER in ΣΑΕ!

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

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

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

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

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

Conservative Outrage Over NY Times Burning The Bush Out!

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


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

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

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

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

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

You see how reactionary these people are.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

It's click bait, America.

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

UNAPOLOGETIC

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


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

Here's more racism from Ms. Butt:



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

Protests After Madison Police Shot And Kill Unarmed Man!


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


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

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

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

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

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