Obama: "The Bright new face of the Democratic party...Mr. Bernie Sanders!" (ie: Hillary will be indicted!)

There was a major revelation two weeks ago but no one seems to have noticed! In case anyone has any doubts... Hillary Clinton is going to be indicted, and Obama and Sanders both know it, and further, they, together, effectively told the world this, two weeks ago.

Guess who the "Peace Candidate" is now?

Hillary Clinton will not be able to run away from her true record in the General Election.

While Bernie Sanders may have gone 'light' on her during the Primaries, if the Super Delegates have any brains at all they would very quickly realize the extremely weak hand that they are setting up for the entire Democratic Party if they continue to maintain their blind (and undeserved) loyalty to Hillary Clinton.

It's all our fault. We apologize.

Anne Graham Lotz, Billy Graham's not-so-famous daughter, runs something called AnGeL Ministries, which is apparently a North Carolina Church.

She says God has gotten so angry at "transgender silliness," that he let 9/11 happen, has let historically bad weather kill people all over the country, and is bring chaos to the land.

It must be true.

Clinton's Vulture Hedge Fund Donations - The Puerto Rico Connection

Abstract. A preliminary investigation shows various connections between Puerto Rican economic crisis, the Clintons and Vulture Hedge Funds. Further research is needed before influence peddling can be ruled out.

This morning I promised to put some of my notes together on how the same neoliberal politicians and vulture funds who have destroyed Puerto Rico donated and still donate to the Clintons (and Obama, and the DNC). The connections of different hedge funds, bankers, appointees, and vampires twist together into a sort of hairball. I can see why academics need to write whole books on this. There are scores of articles that apparently Clinton feminists and other voters have never read. Example: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/vulture-fund-lobbying_us_57350001e4b...

The University of Michigan

Careful readers may remember that while I have studied at many institutions, none of them were the University of Michigan or Michigan State. They hate each other with the white hot passion of a thousand burning suns. The only things they have in common is, well... Michigan of course, a mutual hatred of Ohio State that exceeds their disdain for each other, and Leonard Falcone.

Well, perhaps I should amend the above because I was a student of his in a summer music program at Michigan State (he thought, correctly, I was hopeless) but I'm sure my schadenfreude about any U of M misstep is transmitted genetically through my parents, Richard and Emily, who met at State. Go Spartans!

The back story goes something like this- the University of Michigan School of Economics has for years produced a highly influential consumer sentiment survey. I'll let Bill Black take it from there.

Popular twitter account of a Sanders supporter suspended for this video

I always thought, despite its drawbacks, Twitter's commitment to free speech of its users was commendable. Sure, no user on a private site is guaranteed the right to say or do whatever they want and can be censored at discretion of the owners/managers. But the recent upgrade to the 'block' feature, as well as more aggressive policing of hate speech, was at least a start for Twitter.

Camelot Was More Than A Fairy Tale

It was a vision for the future, once which would have made the entire planet a very different place today had it been realized.

WindDancer 13's post, What the Media Would Like Us to Believe, looks at just one of the false visions We the People are expected to believe, in part so that we don't upset the profitably rotten corporatist apple cart. There are many more.
