Yes, He is a terrible human being.


He also flew out of NY to Germany to protest G20 and promote his garbage abroad the day after the cop you are speaking of was gunned down.

What does the Duffington Post think of this article, titled "Excommunicate Me from the Church of Social Justice"? As some who would describe themselves as an SJW, I happen to agree with it, personally.

Newly declassified memos detail extent of improper Obama-era NSA spying

Quote
The National Security Agency and FBI violated specific civil liberty protections during the Obama administration by improperly searching and disseminating raw intelligence on Americans or failing to promptly delete unauthorized intercepts, according to newly declassified memos that provide some of the richest detail to date on the spy agencies’ ability to obey their own rules.

The memos reviewed by The Hill were publicly released on July 11 through Freedom of Information Act litigation by the American Civil Liberties Union.

They detail specific violations that the NSA or FBI disclosed to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court or the Justice Department's national security division during President Obama’s tenure between 2009 and 2016. The intelligence community isn't due to report on compliance issues for 2017, the first year under the Trump administration, until next spring.


how dare anyone suggest they were surveilled in any way, shape, or form!

Nike CEO Mark Parker
NEW YORK (CNNMoney) - Nike is making some big pay cuts.

CEO Mark Parker is taking a 71% cut this year. He will make $13.9 million, mostly from stock and option awards, according to regulatory filings posted late Tuesday. Parker made $47.6 million in 2016 and was one of the best-paid CEOs in America.

Nike also cut the pay of other top executives. It's a tough time for the company because of weak U.S. sales, a sagging stock price and stiff competition from Adidas. In June, Nike announced plans to lay off more than 1,000 workers.

Parker said in March that the shift to digital commerce was hurting Nike's sales. Stores of all types, particularly clothing companies, have had to cut prices to remain competitive. Nike recently announced that it would sell its products directly on Amazon.

Nike did not respond to a request for comment.

Homeless booted from subways so de Blasio could have 'clean' ride


Ah yes, liberals love to utilize the downtrodden and poor for political talks but they're quite prone to viewing these groups as nuisances when it comes to walking the walk


Yeah I think it's funny how this is a non story....what if President Trump did that lol

With this in mind, should we scrap seat belt laws? (and/or ban seatbelts for being fat-racist?)
