Trump

Mnuchin to Treasury. Keep draining that swamp, Donald.

Looks like being chief financial officer of Trump's campaign is going to pay off for Steven Mnuchin. He's a former Goldman Sachs guy. Plus, any guy who can own his own hedge fund, his own bank and profit from a housing collapse outta be able to run Treasury. Whooo,

Video News Open Thread: Shaun King on TYT

Cat Video Montage by ec.jpg

Greetings, 99%!

So many of us know Shaun King from That Other Place. And know that he moved on, to write for the New York Daily News. And that he is still writing about racial justice issues. So I thought you'd find it interesting that he has been interviewed on the TYT Network.

Jimmy Dore: Economist Explains Brexit, Trump and Why the World-Wide Economy is Screwed

Jimmy discusses a video of political scientist/economist Mark Blyth, Brown University, who accurately predicted Brexit and Trump explains in clear language how globalization and capitalism are failing people throughout the world and why that means more Brexits and Trumps are on the way. You will NOT need an economics degree to understand him.

It's semi-official. Trump to name a second racist to a top U.S. post.

It's breaking now that President-elect Trump (you think it's hard to type that, how about President Trump?) will nominate Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III as the United States of America's next Attorney General. The office that was held by giants like Robert F. Kennedy and Elliot Richardson (who resigned when ordered to fire Archibald Cox, Watergate special prosecutor) is now in the hands of Jeff Sessions.

Weaponized Identity Politics and Hubris gave us Donald, and The Elites in both major parties are just fine with the outcome of the election.

Make no mistake about it: the political elites, whatever their party label, have got exactly what they wanted this election.

People who voted for Donald are racists. All of them.

Just like anybody who voted for Hillary is fine with escalating tensions with Russia over Syria, which can't possibly go wrong or further destabilize the country and bring yet more misery to the brown and black people there.

Just like anybody who voted for Hillary is fine with destabilizing Libya and bringing countless deaths and untold misery to the brown and black people of that country, in the name of liberation.

Meet Steve Bannon - Trump's Alt-Right Brain

Now that Trump has named Bannon as his White House Chief Strategist (same position held by Karl Rove during the W Bush Error, Bush's Brain), I think it's safe to say the Shitnado is looming on the horizon about 70 days out. Bannon metastasized the Alt-Right at Breitbart Media. The Alt-Right ideology is Racist, White Supremacist, Anti-Muslim and Anti-Immigrant.
