"Donald Trump IS a racist."

Don Lemon isn’t dumb

Obama wasn’t born in Kenya

Andrew Gillum isn’t a thief

Maxine Waters isn’t low IQ

NFL players aren’t sons of bitches

People from Haiti don’t all have AIDS

African nations are not shitholes

The Central Park 5 were never guilty

Donald Trump IS a racist

Are we long lost twins?!

I feel the exact same way you do. July is my favorite month because of Independence Day. Also, I'm a fan of cycling and the Tour de France goes on for most of the month of July.

As you said, August is too close to September, and I hate the Fall. I also hate winter.

My new nickname for Trump: King Nothing

Based on these lyrics from the song "King Nothing" by Metallica:


Careful what you wish
Careful what you say
Careful what you wish, you may regret it
Careful what you wish, you just might get it

Then it all crashes down
And you break your crown
And you point your finger
But there’s no one around
Just want one thing
Just to play the king
But the castle’s crumbled
And you’re left with just a name

Where’s your crown, King Nothing?

I believe Trump doesn’t want this gem sharing so whatever you do - do not retweet it.

CNN still covering Nadler. MSNBC switched away from it.

For what it's worth.

Florida minister arrested on child porn charges

Source: WPTV/Associated Press

ENGLEWOOD, Fla. (AP) — A Florida minister and registered sex offender has been arrested after authorities followed up on a lead that he had child porn on his home computer.

Sarasota County Sheriff's officials tell news outlets that 66-year-old Charles Andrews was arrested Tuesday. He's charged with 500 felony counts of possession of child pornography and three counts of failing to meet sex offender requirements.

The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children tipped authorities to two email accounts belonging to Andrews used to download child porn. They traced the email accounts to his home IP address.

Andrews is a pastor at Osprey Church of Christ.

Andrews is a registered sex offender who was convicted in 2006 of second-degree sexual abuse in Alabama. He's in jail with a more than $5 million bond.

Has anyone tried unplugging the country and plugging it back in?

Puerto Ricans rioted until their bigot governor was forced to resign.

Ok Americans, time to stop watching TV, get off your asses, go down to the capital, and be pissed off until your bigot criminal traitor president is forced to resign.

You’re still on the couch. WTF?!

Trump Met with Nunes to Talk Intel Chief Replacements

The president's get-together with the top House Intelligence Republican has fueled more chatter that Dan Coats may be on his way out.

President Donald Trump recently spoke to top House Intelligence Republican Devin Nunes about replacements for the country’s intelligence chief — the latest sign that Dan Coats’ tenure may be short-lived.

Nunes, who grabbed national attention with his controversial allegations of Obama administration surveillance abuses, met with Trump and other senior White House officials last week to discuss who could take over for Coats at the Office of Director of National Intelligence, according to three people familiar with the get-together.

Coats has run ODNI since early in the Trump administration, but his job security is the subject of constant speculation, especially after he gave public testimony on North Korea, Iran and Syria that diverged from Trump’s prior comments on the issues. The ODNI chief oversees the government’s intelligence agencies, coordinates the country’s global information-gathering operation and frequently briefs the president on threats each morning.

The meeting between Trump and Nunes has only fueled more chatter about Coats’ departure. The pace of Trump’s discussions with allies about potential replacements has ramped up in recent weeks, the people said.
