Bernie Sanders signaled a formal endorsement of Hillary Clinton is imminent, saying in an interview that Republican Donald Trump is “a pathological liar” and that he’ll throw his full support behind electing his rival for the Democratic nomination as president.
Philando Castile was murdered in Minnesota by a police officer as he was sitting in his car, reaching for his license and registration. His girlfriend, Lavish Reynolds, and her four-year-old daughter were in the car. As is common in extrajudicial murders of black people in America, the victim's loved one, Lavish, was taken into custody and as of this writing has not been released even though she is accused of no crime.
Obviously, we are very excited and proud to have Nina Turner as one of our main speakers at The People's Convention in Philly on July 23rd:
If you can make it to Philadelphia on July 23rd, don't miss this opportunity. If you've ever seen Nina in person or online, I'm sure you will know what I mean when I say she defines the word "dynamic." "Passionate" too.
So far I have refrained, here, from commenting on the Noam Chomsky/ John Halle statement about "lesser evil voting" -- mostly because the idea that the world needs more evil appears to me as a patent absurdity.
Bernie Sanders’ and Hillary Clinton’s campaigns are in talks about a possible event at which Sanders would endorse Clinton, ABC News has confirmed, according to sources close to his campaign.

Sanders confirmed the discussions during an interview Wednesday night on MSNBC.
"I think at the end of the day, there is going to be a coming together, and we're going to go forward together and not only defeat Trump, but defeat him badly," he said.
Well, it looks like it will happen. The rumors started yesterday about a deal brewing where Bernie will endorse Clinton if the price is right.
I hate having to say this but if we are to protect our democracy it means holding both parties accountable.
I think the public would like to have the President answer a few questions;
1. When did you first find out Hillary was using her personal email for State Department Business?
2. What actions did you take to address this and when?
3. At what points did you get updates on this case, by whom, what dates and what did they tell you?
This could end up being particularly troubling for him considering his statement that, "No reasonable prosecutor" would bring such a case to trial.
Well, turns out Comey may have "misspoken."
In Illinois, the Green Party/Jill Stein submitted 50,000 signatures and will be on the ballot in Illinois. Ballot access movements are looking promising in Nevada, Washington, and Arizona. State deadlines for ballot access are coming up in Georgia, Pennsylvania, Missouri, Kansas, and Connecticut.
