that worthless piece of shit Alex Jones is having a "contest."

If you can appear on local or national television for at least five seconds while wearing a shirt that says, "Bill Clinton is a rapist," you receive $1000. (Oh yeah: you have to wear the official "Infowars" t-shirt to get the money.)
If you can be heard on local or national television saying the same thing, you receive $5000.

Tell me again: Which country is Trump running for president of?

In the country I live in, "jailing your political opponents" is NOT an acceptable campaign pledge.

I think Donald Trump deserves a round of applause

He just put all fifty states in play, and I never believed until a couple days ago we'd ever take Idaho or Utah.

There's only one response to Trump's Machado tweets

"That's nice, Donnie. Still trying to deflect from your felonies, I see."

The moment Donald Trump lost not only the debate, but the election

Trump: "I've been all over the place. You decided to stay home, and that's okay."

Hillary: "I think Donald just criticized me for preparing for this debate. And yes, I did. And you know what else I prepared for? I prepared to be president. And I think that's a good thing."

Today's Bundy Update: $1000 fine for mentioning LaVoy

http://www.rawstory.com/2016/09/judge-threatens-ammon-bundys-lawyer-with-contempt-for-derailing-conspiracy-trial/

Judge Anna Brown has proven she will not take any crap from the defense in this case.

One of the defense's tactics in this case is to try to pivot into an exploration of the shooting of LaVoy Finicum. Finally, Judge Brown informed Ammon Bundy's lawyer, and later all the lawyers on both sides, that the only things that can be discussed regarding the ventilation of Tarpman are the day he was killed and that he was killed. Go outside that little cage, says the good judge, and she's going to whack the lawyer that did it with a $1000 contempt citation.

They also interviewed the rancher who operates next to the Malheur refuge. He was not happy about going through calf season surrounded by armed sovereign citizens.

The case is on hold until next Monday.

Bundy Trial: Ammon was carrying over $8000 when he was arrested

http://www.oregonlive.com/oregon-standoff/2016/09/ammon_bundy_had_8031_in_cash_o.html

We learned some interesting facts today:

The day before the occupation happened, Ammon bought $471.55 worth of hunting supplies - ammunition, rifle scopes and clothing - from a store in Emmett, Idaho.

The day before he was arrested, he withdrew $6000 from an in-store bank in Nampa, Idaho. (Both are roughly 200 miles from the Malheur reservation.) When the cops picked him up, they discovered $8000 on his person in a white envelope and an additional $31 in his wallet.

The prosecution now believes they can rest next week.
