…and once again, Al Jazeera America reports on stories ignored by our corporate media; this one about convicted criminal Rudolph Norris (granted clemency by Number 44, possibly the motivation behind this disgusting bit of corporate media wankery) and mandatory minimum sentencing against the backdrop of the proliferation of crack in the ‘90s…
...and Kyle Kulinski of Secular Talk take a look at the first ad from Bernie Sanders (could do without Sanders’s flip-flopping of sorts over the Hillary Clinton Email nonsense, though – NSFW a bit)…
…and Shep Smith goes off-script again on Black Lives Matter and the suicide of that godawful Illinois cop – kudos (more here)…
By the way, the clip is cut off a bit at the end – this is what Smith said…
“Think of the narrative that came out of that from so many, many places, about, ‘It’s the fault of the Black Lives Matter movement,'” Smith said Thursday. “All of this stuff that was just, it really turned up the rhetoric and it really was factually wrong."Oh, and here is some food for thought it you end up watching the "big game" tomorrow somewhere...
…and I’m sorry, but this is just WAY too damn funny – some blonde on Fix Noise says that “only” 271,000 jobs were added last month, when economists expected a number that turned out to be lower – I would ask if she and Steve Douchey know how to count, but I think I know the answer already (click anywhere in video to start and stop)…
…and I can’t let this week come to a close without nothing that Ahmed Chalabi died; he was perhaps the biggest proponent of Dubya’s Not So Excellent Adventure in Mesopotamia – I thought this New York Times video got it right with this soulless con artist, who our prior ruling cabal was stupid enough to trust because it suited everyone’s purpose to do so…
…and these guys just keep making great, kick-ass music, including this little number (maybe applies to Chalabi a bit, I guess).
