Cnn is currently making a big deal about how the white supremacists were outnumbered by the protestors at some rally. 

 

Well no shit they were. There's maaaaybe  a couple thousand people in the KKK these days. They are the biggest nonissue ever but the left treats them like some sort of seething illuminati of hatred.

 

Antifa thugs beat people within inches of their lives, but a guy cosplaying as a ghost and yells something about racial superiority is somehow a more grave threat. 

 

When you create the fiction that there are armies of rabid white nationalists ready to lynch everyone with the slightest amount of melanin you can't just walk it back and admit you were clickbaiting.

You forgot to mention that this guy also probably lives in his parents attic/basement, is 250lbs, and lives off welfare.

If these basement-dwelling “white nationalists” didn’t exist, the Left and the media would invent them.

Remember kids, Christianity is code for white nationalism. It's true, I learned it from an anti-fa SJW

Aha, you see. This is not a real antifa story because the speaker didn't punch and kick the trashcan vociferously first before setting it on fire and running off

Conduct such as, perhaps, discreetly recording conversations in the White House?

 

That's what I was wondering.

Paul Manafort’s defense team has rested its case without calling any witnesses nor will Manafort testify.

My guess is that the prosecutor’s case led by Robert Mueller was so bungled and incompetent that there was no need.

 

The narrative of this trial is that Mueller is going after Manafort on tax evasion solely to get the former short-term Trump campaign manager to flip on his former boss regarding so-called Russian Collusion.

 

Prediction, if Mueller doesn’t secure a guilty verdict in this case, Trump will order the Special Prosecutor to be fired.

Back to the topic of people running for office who really shouldn't, may I present the case of Bobby Wilson of Arizona who is running for the Arizona state senate?  Some might find it odd that a man who was disbarred for running a forgery scam would run for public office. Even stranger is the fact that he killed his mother and sister and then burned the bodies when he was 18.  Of course, he claims it was self-defense but his story is pretty far fetched.

The absolute nuttiest candidate in the US has dropped out.  independent candidate for Virginia's 10th Congressional District, Nathan Larson, announced he is ending his campaign.  I guess not many people in Virginia supported his pro-pedophilia and incest platform.
