Back in July, the French government posted a video clip of Ivanka at the G20 summit in Japan trying to butt into a conversation between world leaders. The video went viral. FYI: The intent of holding the G20 every year is to promote global economic cooperation. The 20 countries that attend are responsible for almost all global trade. The grownups
Read moreJune 30th was supposed to be the day for the Million Trump March. If you were thinking that maybe this strangely named event might have been for Gay Pride month where gays show support for Trump, you’d be very wrong. Though attendance would have been the same. The event was cancelled in April due to fraud and anyone who contributed
Read moreCertainly there were more serious and important things going on in the world but Kellyanne Conway and the Bowling Green Massacre was such a perfect faux pas that it trended most of the day on Friday as people got creative. Besides being a nice bit of relief from the craziness of the Trump administration it also put Snippy Conway in
Read moreThe real statistics on crimes committed by undocumented immigrants or Muslims do not support a ban on Muslims or a wall along the southern border.

In just 60 seconds, Shepherd’s tableaus pay homage to Philando Castille, Sandra Bland, Alton Sterling, Colin Kaepernick, and Trayvon Martin. But one minute is long enough to make your heart ache. I doubt Ms. Shepherd and company expected the kind of response they’ve received. I noticed
Read moreA very clever video to get out the vote. Hillary has since approved Markie’s message.
Read moreUPDATE: The lawsuit that was scheduled to begin on October 14th has been voluntarily dismissed by the plaintiff. A new eyewitness has come forward so Jane Doe will be refiling once again. Another video clip from Katie, the woman who alleges Trump raped her in 1994 when she was just 13. The preliminary hearing for the Trump rape trial is

They will be refiling the case once they have the eyewitness statement. Details are here ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Today was to be the first pretrial conference in a civil lawsuit filed against Donald Trump alleging that he raped

In other parts of the country, a teenager stealing a car is called joyriding since he doesn’t intend to keep it. Sometime it’s even a misdemeanor, that “Boys will be boys” mentality. But whether you choose to call
