We went 8 years without fear mongering

Now, we are faced with an incompetent regime trying to make us afraid of the world. It took Bu$h almost a year before his minions started this shit.

trump only 100 days. He wants a war to divert the attention from his scandalous government.

Wife clothes shopping, picked up a top by ivanka trump.

As she is about to ask me what I thought, I noticed the designer tag.

Usually I tell her it looks good because she has great taste, but I said, you had better swallow hard before buying that piece of trash. She had not seen the tag and thought I hated it.

She quickly put it back and we left the store.

It was on the clearance rack.

Russians used Bernie Bros as unwitting agents in disinformation campaign: Senate Intel witness

At Thursday afternoon’s meeting of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Retired Gen. Keith Alexander — former director of the National Security Agency — said that Russian operatives targeted both liberal and conservative voters in its disinformation campaigns during the 2016 election.

Dr. Thomas Rid of Kings College London’s Department of War Studies explained that polarization makes societies vulnerable to manipulation by disinformation campaigns

Russia, Rid explained, according to CBS News, likes to use “unwitting agents” to carry out its work. WikiLeaks, Twitter and “overeager journalists” all contributed to Russia’s efforts to destabilize the U.S. by disrupting its 2016 election.

Democratic committee co-chair Sen. Mark Warner (VA) asked the panel if they had any doubt that Russia had attempted to interfere in some aspects of the 2016 election. Alexander said not only did he have no doubt, he could get very specific.

“Senator, I think what they were trying to do was drive a wedge within the Democratic Party between the Clinton group and the Sanders group,” said Alexander. “And then in our nation between Republicans and Democrats.”

Why would CBS News allow a fascist minion come on their network and tell them they are fake?

The problem with the media isn't that they are fake, but that they are weak!

They should shut down anyone who questions the legitimacy of the media.

Next time your racist friend or brother is eating potato chips...

Tell the who invented them...
George Crum, Inventor of Potato Chips



Every time a person crunches into a potato chip, he or she is enjoying the delicious taste of one of the world's most famous snacks – a treat that might not exist without the contribution of black inventor George Crum.

The son of an African-American father and a Native American mother, Crum was working as the chef in the summer of 1853 when he incidentally invented the chip. It all began when a patron who ordered a plate of French-fried potatoes sent them back to Crum's kitchen because he felt they were too thick and soft.

To teach the picky patron a lesson, Crum sliced a new batch of potatoes as thin as he possibly could, and then fried them until they were hard and crunchy. Finally, to top them off, he added a generous heaping of salt. To Crum's surprise, the dish ended up being a hit with the patron and a new snack was born!

Years later, Crum opened his own restaurant that had a basket of potato chips on every table. Though Crum never attempted to patent his invention, the snack was eventually mass-produced and sold in bags – providing thousands of jobs nationwide.
