Saturday Night Live Pays Tribute to The People of Paris – Video

The eloquent and moving tribute was simple, yet profound. It happened at the beginning of the show and came from cast-member, Cecily Strong.

“Paris is the City of Light,” she said, “and here in New York City, we know that light will never go out. Our love and support is with everyone there tonight. We stand with you.” She then said the same thing in French before issuing the usual, “And now, live from New York, it’s Saturday Night Live!”

Carly Fiorina Defends Ben Carson From Donald Trump’s Venom – Trump Fires Back

Hey, did you hear about the crazy 95 minute harangue by Donald Trump the other night? In it, Trump attacked everybody, but he especially had some choice words to say about Ben Carson, comparing him to a child molester.

Crazy, yea I know. Trump thought that because Carson mentioned in one of his books that he was pathologically violent when he was a teenager, Trump thought that was the same as being a child molester!

The soft-spoken Carson was not going to stand up to Trump, so Carly Fiorina decided to do it for him.

“Donald, sorry, I’ve got to interrupt again,” she wrote, referencing Trump’s protestations that she ‘interrupts everybody’ during the most recent GOP debate.

“You would know something about pathological. How was that meeting with Putin? Or Wharton? Or your self funded campaign? Anyone can turn a multi-million dollar inheritance into more money, but all the money in the world won’t make you as smart as Ben Carson.”

Fiorina’s post garnered more than 27,000 times. Trump responded in a series of five tweets on his Twitter account, telling Fiorina to apologize repeatedly.

“Carly, not just you, I also told Gov. Kasich to “let Jeb talk, give him a chance” because Kasich was constantly cutting in,” he wrote.

Less than a minute later, he wrote “Carly—I did graduate from Wharton and did very well. Who is your fact checker? Will you apologize?”

“Ben Carson said in his own book that he has a pathological temper (and) pathological disease. I didn’t say it, he did. Apology?”

“I only said I was on (“60 Minutes”) four weeks ago with Putin—never said I was in Green Room. Separate pieces—great ratings!”

“(Fiorina) had to inject herself into my factual statements concerning Ben Carson in order to breathe life into her failing campaign!”

Liz Cheney Used Paris’ Terrorist Attack to Attack President Obama

It’s almost as if she was sitting at her computer waiting to tweet something terrible about President Obama. Just moments after the terrorist attacks in started in Paris, Liz Cheney, daughter of the former vice president Dick Cheney, went on Twitter to blame president Obama for the attacks.

In a blatantly sick political attack on the president, Cheney tweeted, ISIS attacks Paris hours after @BarackObama claims he has “contained” them, just like he “defeated” all Qaeda and “ended the war” in Iraq.

I’m absolutely sure her father and the Republican base wholeheartedly approve of her tweet that happened when more than 150 people were being slaughtered. But not everyone appreciated Cheney’s sick political attack on the president. And they made sure to tell her about it.

UPDATE – Over 100 People Killed in Paris, 5 Terrorists Dead

The initial reporting of the terrorist attack in Paris stated that as many as 46 people killed and 100 others taken hostage. And as the story progressed, it is always the hope that that number will decrease and those originally feared dead would be found alive. Hope has failed us tonight as the number of innocent people killed has ballooned upwards past 100 to as many as 120 killed.

French television and news services quoted the police as saying that around 100 people had been killed at a concert site where hostages had been held during a two-hour standoff with the police, and that perhaps dozens of others had been killed in apparently coordinated attacks outside the country’s main sports stadium and four or five other popular locations in the city. But estimates on the total number of dead varied.

Witnesses on French television said the scene at the concert hall, which can seat as many as 1,500 people, was a massacre, describing how gunmen with automatic weapons shot bursts of bullets into the crowd. Ambulances were seen racing back and forth in the area into the early hours of Saturday.

Television reports said at least five assailants had been killed: three at the concert hall as the police assaulted the building, and two near the sports stadium. It was unclear whether other attackers were still on the loose early Saturday.

At Least 46 Killed, 100 Hostages Taken in Paris Shootings

USA Today is reporting least 46 people were killed late Friday after gunmen opened fire at three locations in central Paris and fled in a car. They later took around 100 people hostage in a concert hall, police said.

At about the same time, two  explosions were heard at or near the the Stade de France, the national stadium, where Germany and France were holding a soccer match, the Associated Press reports. It was not immediately clear if the two events were related.

According to the Associated Press, a police official said 11 people were killed in a Paris restaurant in the 10th arrondissement, and about 35 killed in the Bataclan theatre, where a hostage-taking is under way.

The newspaper Liberation said officials speaking over a loudspeaker at the stadium asked the crowd to evacuated calmly. French President Francois Hollande was at the game at the time and left to deal with the crisis.

Nina Turner Changes Her Mind – Endorses Bernie Sanders Instead

The great progressive voice of Ohio and former state Senator, Nina Turner, dropped her support for Hillary Clinton on Thursday and wholeheartedly endorsed Bernie Sanders for president.

Turner and Sanders’ presidential campaign confirmed the endorsement Thursday.

“I’m very attracted by his message and his style — and that he has held pretty much strong on his beliefs and the world is catching up with him,” Turner said.

Turner added that Sanders’ positions on voting rightsand wage issues have stood out to her. While she is expected to be active in his campaign, a Sanders spokeswoman said whatever role Turner has will not be paid.

Turner spoke to cleveland.com by telephone before flying to Iowa, where she will attend Saturday’s Democratic debate featuring Clinton, Sanders and Martin O’Malley.

She also will introduce Sanders at his Monday rally at Cleveland State University’s Wolstein Center. The Vermont senator, who describes himself as a democratic socialist, has emerged as Clinton’s strongest Democratic primary rival.

“We are extremely, extremely humbled by the support of Sen. Nina Turner,” Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver said. “She is nationally known as a voice for voting rights, for workers’ rights and for marginalized people. The support of someone with that record of standing up for middle-income and working people is tremendously important.”

NY Man Makes “$200.00 an Hour” Begging for Money

Here’s something for Republican presidential hopeful, Marco Rubio. Forget lying about welders making more money than philosophers, that is just a lie and you know it. Instead, tell your people that they could make more money if they quit their jobs and beg. Not only would that fit the Republican platform of austerity, but you could be telling the truth for a change.

A panhandler outside Grand Central Terminal says he rakes in up to $200 an hour from kind-hearted New Yorkers.

And the 43-year-old former theater stagehand is only one of a legion of beggars in the city hauling in big bucks and a smorgasbord of food doing nothing but sitting on the sidewalk with hands out.

“On a Friday morning, I make $400 in two hours,’’ said Will Andersen, who was with his 9-year-old dog, Rizzo, on East 42nd Street between Vanderbilt and Madison avenues on Tuesday.

As Andersen was talking to The Post, another beggar told him gleefully, “I got three breakfast sandwiches today! And they were all meat! I’m putting on pounds out here!”

The beggars’ comments came a day after Police Commissioner Bill Bratton urged New Yorkers to simply not give if they want to get vagrants off the streets.

Larry Wilmore on Donald Trump – “Trump is Stupid, Plain and Simple” – Video

Comedy Central’s Larry Wilmore did his best to describe Donald Trump’s performance in the 4th Republican debate on Tuesday and he summed up Mr. Trump as, “Stupid. Plain and simple.”

Wilmore continued;

“Contempt for higher learning, critical thinking — or as they called it, “elitism” — was always a strategy for smart guys to get into office. But now those smart guys are getting buried by their own creation of dumb.”

New Poll – Bernie Sanders Has Double Digit Lead over Donald Trump and Jeb Bush

Bernie Sanders – Can you #FeelTheBern?

In a new McClatchy-Marist poll, Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) leads Republican candidate Donald Trump by a landslide margin of 12 percentage points, 53 to 41. In the McClatchy poll, Sanders also leads former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) by a landslide margin of 10 points, 51 to 41.

The huge Sanders advantage over Bush is new. In previous match-ups, the polling showed Sanders and Bush running virtually even, with Bush holding a 1-point lead over Sanders in most of the polls. Future polls will be needed to test whether the huge Sanders lead over Bush in the McClatchy poll will be repeated in future polling or whether the McClatchy poll is an outlier.
