NBC News reports that Daniel Pantaleo, the New York City police officer seen on video using a chokehold during Eric Garner's deadly arrest five years ago, sparking mass protests, was fired by the department, the police commissioner said Monday. An administrative judge this month recommended that Pantaleo be terminated over the July 17, 2014, confrontation as Garner was being arrested on Staten Island for selling loose, untaxed cigarettes. Pantaleo, who has been with the NYPD since 2006, was suspended...
The post appeared on Facebook. Devin Myers just escaped being a statistic of the worst kind. He is one of the lucky ones to escaped being shot to death by police. The black 20 year old man in Royal Oaks Michigan was on his way to a restaurant when a white woman called the police on him because "he looked at her suspiciously." Police arrived and questioned the young man for over 20 minutes for committing the apparent crime of looking at someone... while being black that is. Kimiko Adolph posted the video...
And Republicans rejoice! They love the incompetence in the White House. The President of the United States, (I still shudder to say that) is once again putting his ignorance on full display. In a feeble attempt to talk about defense and science, Trump tweeted some usual nonsense including saying that the moon is part of Mars. See the dumbness below https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1137051097955102720
Another dumb statement by a Republican. In an interview, a Ronna McDaniel, a Republican Chair, acknowledged the 75th anniversary of D-Day by calling for Trump to be celebrated. Yes, Trump. The man who claimed he suffered from bone spurs as a reason to avoid a draft into military service. Said Ronna McDaniel, GOP Chairwoman - "We are celebrating the anniversary, 75 years of D-Day. This is the time where we should be celebrating our President, the great achievements of America, and I don't think the American...
Former President Barack Obama is still loved and respected, something the current occupant of the Oval Office cannot say. While attending an NBA game in Toronto Canada, the President received a standing ovation from a crowded arena. While England is flying Trump Baby Blimps, this is how Canada is receiving Obama... quite the contrast.pic.twitter.com/YmKEi1D4zy — Justin Kanew (@Kanew) June 3, 2019
This may be the only time I share a favorable post about Fox's Judge Napolitano. Often an ardent supporter of the insanity that is the Trump administration, Napolitano apparently found his voice and decided to step out on a limb to chastise Donald Trump - something unheard of on his Fox News channel. Watch video below https://twitter.com/TrisResists/status/1121757189406957569
It's the most anticipated announcement this election cycle, that former Vice President Joe Biden is entering the race to be American's next president in 2020. But unlike the other Democratic presidential hopefuls, Biden did not make his announcement pushing policies, he went straight for the jugular, hitting Trump and his open racism. Straight from Charlottesville, Biden's announcement video focused on Trump's "fine people on both sides" statement, when the president defended the racists screaming...
