Trump Resorts to Racist Fear Mongering to Scare Up Votes From Suburban 'Housewives'
It never fails. Whenever Donald Trump is cornered by events that expose his disastrous mismanagement of the people's business, he falls back on the Republican Party's established, all-purpose defense mechanism: Racism. It's a tactic that has been employed for decades by the GOP, but never with such knee-jerk consistency as by Trump. Trump is currently…
FOX NEWS INSIDERS: They Created a White Supremacist Cell Inside the Network
The flamingly racist rhetoric of Donald Trump is somehow managing to heat up even further. His remarks supporting the Confederate flag, and the statues of the slavery proponents it represents, cut deeply into the concept of equality for all Americans. And his latest public statements have included thinly veiled bigotry such as his assertion that…
Rubin Blasts NY Times for not Calling Trump a Racist
Jennifer Rubin gets a lot of flack here over the suspicion that she isn’t really on our side, she’s just against Trump, and will go back to screeching at us the way she screeches at him now. That’s possible, maybe even probable. But let’s not be so suspicious that we miss a few things. First…
REALLY? Trump is Afraid that Electing Biden 'Would Lead To Disaster'
The United States of America is currently undergoing one of the most troubling and turbulent times in its short history. The American people are suffering hardships that have not been imagined for decades. The list of leadership failures under “president” Donald Trump are almost too numerous to mention. But the consequences are far too too…
Trump's Racism Could Cost Him the Election – In Fact, It has To Do So
Trump got himself elected in large part by playing on this country’s racism, exploiting resentment over Barack Obama for not only being the nation’s first Black president, but for being mostly successful at it. He made his opening political gambit with his “birther” claim that Obama was really born in Kenya, which was a racist…
The Washington NFL team is undergoing a 'thorough review' of its offensive nickname … finally
It’s always been offensive. It simply took this moment in history to get the ball rolling: x And here it is: the Redskins are undergoing a thorough review of the team’s name. And let’s be clear: There’s no review if there’s no change coming. Redskins on way out. pic.twitter.com/ZrS3cCvhMg— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) July 3, 2020…
A white Mississippi elections official is 'concerned' with 'the blacks' and their voter drives
Jones County Election Commissioner Gail Harrison Welch posted this nugget on her Facebook. Her defense is that she thought it was a private message. I’m a Election Commissioner in Jones County.

Trump is Losing Because He is a Racist, Says Atlantic Article
Now this is fascinating. David Graham argues in the Atlantic that white voters are abandoning Trump, and they are doing so because of his attitudes about race: White Voters Are Abandoning Trump And they’re doing so for a surprising reason. It’s not the economy (Conman Trump continues to bamboozle 56% of the electorate into thinking…
TRUMP FAILS to Renounce or Apologize for His 'White Power' Tweet in Official White House Response
The White House Deflection Shields are on full force this morning as Donald Trump is faced with some of the most damning evidence of his despicable negligence, incompetence and malfeasance to date. He has turned to his customary tactic of hurling insults, shifting blame, and denying reality. In other words, it's the same old Trump…
replace your divots: Trump wants more street violence to gas, so Albert Pike will get re-erected
Made to order for whenever the national guard(s) and whatever federal riot squads are ready in DC to trash BLM demonstrators. Heck, the RWNJs could recruit anti-freemasonists to take this sculpture down, once the NPS puts it back up. Even the RCP has led a street demo against this sculpture. This resurrection is Trump’s virtue…
FOX News Defends Slave Owners: 'It Doesn't Mean They Were Terrible People'
There is a bitter controversy spreading across America like a viral pandemic. The nation's past is being held to greater scrutiny as a result of repeated incidents of unarmed black Americans being murdered by the police.

Krugman: Race is Why We Have a Weak Safety Net
Paul Krugman has a column out this morning: Tulsa and the Many Sins of Racism, about Bunker Boy’s choice of Tulsa and Juneteenth for his restart rally — choices Krugman is certain were deliberate. Being a Nobel laureate in economics, Krugman looks at the question of race relations from a largely economic perspective. One of…

Trump says America will achieve racial harmony 'quickly' and 'very easily'
Yes, thank heavens the lifelong racist who wanted to murder the Central Park Five is on the job. (Okay, he probably wasn’t racist as an infant or toddler. Then again, who knows? Many people are saying he was. Many, many people. That’s what I heard, anyway.) x Donald Trump on confronting bigotry and prejudice in…
The always wrong Larry Kudlow claims there's no systemic racism in America
Hiring TV talking head (er, ass) Larry Kudlow as an economic adviser, which Donald Trump (in)famously did, is kind of like hiring a pro bass fisherman to remove your appendix. Correction: It’s like hiring a bad pro bass fisherman to remove your appendix. With a pair of salad tongs and an ice augur. Kudlow is so…
It's not about defunding or defending the cops, it's about redefining emergency services
Since the latest media frame “defend/defund the police” is self-limiting, the discourse should move to redefining emergency services much as “first-responders” has expanded to include those on the “front-line”. Trumpists just don’t get it, but they will seize on the latest frame much like some celebrities (and IMPOTUS*) can confuse kneeling to signify police brutality…
