In 1882 a couple of socialist cats named Matthew Maguire and Peter McGuire, both members of the Socialist Labor Party, proposed an official workers’ holiday in New York to be called “Labor Day.” Both men were also active in their respective labor unions, with Maguire belonging to the International Association of Machinists and Peter McGuire general secretary of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and co-founder of the American Federation of Labor. (Busy little pinkos, weren’t they?)
As the popularity of New York’s Labor Day gained momentum in urban centers across the U.S., President Grover Cleveland (yes, a Democrat) signed legislation in June of 1894 declaring Labor Day a national holiday to be held, like New York’s own, the first Monday of every September.
He was not re-elected.
Kudos to those who have managed to remain gainfully employed in spite of Exalted Ruler’s best efforts to draw deep divisions between the haves (them) and the have-nots (us). The press never mentions that the GDP has not seen 3% growth in the 8 years he’s been dismantling the country. Right now it’s growing at an anemic 1-1/2%. Not even during the depths of the Great Depression has economic growth been that slow. He crows about “56 straight months of job gains.” His economy adds 100,000 new minimum wage jobs while 400,000 good-paying full-time jobs disappear. His Obamacare mandates have played a huge role in reducing the work force as employers cut hours to avoid Dear Reader’s onerous taxes.
Perez was asked on CNBC how he felt about the recently released jobs numbers, which showed the unemployment rate held steady at 4.9 percent from July to August while 94,391,000 Americans are not participating in the labor force.
94,391,000 Americans Out of the Labor Force in August
The national unemployment rate also remained unchanged at 4.9 percent, as the United States economy added only 151,000 jobs.
THE ONLY SEGMENT OF THE ECONOMY THAT GREW WAS PUBLIC SERVICE JOBS — UNION CARD-CARRYING, DEMOCRAT SUPPORTING JOBS.
Record High Number of Foreign-Born Workers Employed in U.S.
Number of native-born workers declined over the month
Last month was the first time that the number of foreign-born workers exceeded 26 million. There were 25,984,000 foreign-born workers who had a job in July, and in August that number jumped to 26,134,000, an increase of 240,000.
According to the bureau, a foreign-born person is one who resides in the United States but who was born outside the country. Undocumented immigrants and refugees may be included in the data set, since the bureau does not distinguish between legal and illegal immigrants.
There were 126,453,000 native-born workers employed in July, and in August, that number dropped to 125,670,000, a one-month decline of 783,000.
The unemployment rate for foreign-born workers is also lower for foreign-born workers. In August, the unemployment rate was 4.4 percent for foreign-born workers and 5.1 percent for native-born workers.
Chicago Passes 2015 Murder Total With 4 Months Left In 2016 Chicago ticked past a pair of grim milestones as August passed into September. Chicago Police said 90 people were murdered in the city in August. A few hours into Sept. 1, the total number of murders in 2016 reached 469, exceeding the tally for all of last year.
Some may consider a scattershot approach as a writing style. An imagination so vivid that the thoughts flow about willy-nilly (I always wanted to type that) and somehow appear in some semblance of order. The truth is that most times when I start a post I have no clue where it’s going or when it will end. Some call it eccentricity, some call it genius, some call it idiocy. Take your pick. White House defends Obama evading Senate on Paris climate dealWhite House senior adviser Brian Deese said the president has the legal authority to ratify the accord without the two-thirds Senate vote required for treaties. He said the pact negotiated by 195 countries in December is merely an “executive agreement.”
“The president will use his authority that has been used in dozens of executive agreements in the past to join and formally deposit our instrument of acceptance, and therefore put our country as a party to the Paris Agreement,” Mr. Deese said at a White House press conference.

Kelli Ward Vows to Retire John McCain in Historic Arizona Primary
DR. WARD, I HATE TO RAIN ON YOUR PARADE, BUT IT WILL NOT HAPPEN. HE HAS THE FULL BACKING OF THE GOP ELITE AND HE’S THE BEST BUDDY THE DEMOCRATS HAVE. HE PLAYED AT RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT AGAINST OBAMA BECAUSE IT WAS HIS TURN, BUT SPENT $4 MILLION TO DEFEAT A TALK SHOW HOST TO KEEP HIS CUSHY JOB IN THE SENATE.
Surrounded at home by family members making last-minute phone calls, Ward understands the historical significance that a win Tuesday will have on the Republican Party and the future of the nationalist movement that has grabbed hold of the popular consciousness and refuses to let to.
“We the people have a voice and we need to use it,” Ward told Breitbart News in a contemplative interview. “And the career politicians and elitists need to hear that roar.”

Befuddled Hillary Clinton Begs Big Money Donors for Advice on Debating Donald Trump Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton is having so much trouble coming up with a debate strategy against her rival, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, that she begged big money donors at a fundraiser in the Hamptons on Monday for advice on how to deal with Trump at the upcoming presidential debates.
“I want any of your thoughts or ideas about how I should debate Donald Trump, just to name one thing. 71 days left in the campaign and I am not taking anything, anyone or any place for granted. This is the most unpredictable electoral season that I certainly can remember and I am running against someone who will say or do anything.”
OH, REALLY??
Confirmed: Clinton Camp Debate Prep Includes Discussion of Size of Trump’s Hands Our Democratic source notes that when Marco Rubio during the primary talked about the size of Donald Trump’s hands that it flustered Donald Trump taking him off his game while comments like bankruptcy and other financial matters he will be better prepared to answer. Our source indicates the Clintons have 25 researchers looking into four decades of Trump’s background.
TRUMP HAS LAURA INGRAHAM PLAYING HILLARY’S PART FOR HIS DEBATE PREP. I THINK INGRAHAM COULD WIPE THE FLOOR WITH EITHER OF THEM.
Huffington Post Contributor: I’ve Had Stories About Hillary’s Health Erased, Publishing Access Revoked
ONE DOES NOT TELL THE TRUTH ON THE EMPRESS-IN-WAITING WHEN YOU WORK FOR A LIBERAL RAG On Hillary Clinton as a Model for Young Girls
Given that the former secretary of state used her office to enrich herself and her husband; given that she so willfully compromised national security by setting up her own private email server in order to avoid congressional and public oversight; given that she has repeatedly lied about these actions; given that she lied to the mothers and fathers of the men killed by terrorists in Benghazi; and given that she has a long history of lying (a New York Times columnist called her a “congenital liar” in the 1990s), the notion of Clinton as a model for America’s girls and young women is nothing, if not depressing.
Voters Clueless on What Hillary Clinton’s Previous Job Was
Detroit has 10,000 empty, structurally sound houses—10,000. And lot of jobs to be had repairing those houses. Detroit just came out of bankruptcy and the mayor’s trying to do an innovative sort of urban homesteading program there. But it just gives you an example of what could be done. And I think any of us who have ever had any personal experience with either Syrian Americans or Syrian refugees think it’s a pretty good deal.
It is unclear from the video why Clinton seems to think it would be better to fill these Detroit jobs with imported foreign migrants rather than unemployed Americans already living there, who could perhaps benefit from good-paying jobs.
MSNBC anchor Thomas Roberts voiced his discomfort with discussing the latest Anthony Weiner sexting scandal on Monday, telling his panel at the outset that it was not a subject he wanted to talk about or “deal with.”

About 40 people, most of them older black women, gathered in a West Baltimore church basement to ask police to return order to their community.
A gas station owner whose parking lot had been taken over by loiterers begged for help; a 17-year old was also fatally shot there. Another man asked about the foot patrol officers that were promised to the community.

Trump supporter shouts “Pepe!” during Hillary Clinton’s Alt Right Speech
New Trump Ad Shows Racist Remarks Made by Hillary Clinton in 1996 When dealing with “super-predators” in society, it is the government’s job to bring them to “heel.”
This is what Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton had to say about crime in the 1990’s while her husband Bill Clinton was president.
Donald Trump posted a video on Friday showing Clinton’s infamous speech discussing the controversial crime bill signed into law that increased mandatory minimums for first time offenders, specifically “certain kinds of kids” Clinton said.
“Looking back, I shouldn’t have used those words, and I wouldn’t use them today,” Clinton said earlier this year about her “super-predator” remark.

Growing up in the 1960’s we all remember certain songs that we related to a date or significant event in our formative years. John Sebastian and The Lovin’ Spoonful recorded this in 1966. I was 16 and had just gotten a drivers license. Every Saturday night my grandparents would go out to eat at the same restaurant. I knew I had about 2 hours after they left to take granddad’s 1960 Chevy station wagon and cruise the two lane blacktops around the area, radio blasting. Good times. Only got caught when they came home early once.

Media Protects Hillary Clinton after Weekend of Mega-Fundraisers with Elitist Donors

HOW DID A POLITICAL PARTY BASED SOLELY ON BIGOTRY AND HATRED BECOME SO PREVALENT?
I think the assessment was that Donald Trump would try and do some things to appeal to the middle of the electorate, to appeal to the suburban college educated women. He’s not. Basically we have a psychopath running for president,” Plouffe said. “He meets the clinical definition, OK?”
Todd immediately took issue with Plouffe diagnosing Trump on television and stopped him and asked if he had a degree in psychology.
“Is that fair? We’re jumping to conclusions here,” Todd said. “I think this is what gets voters a little frustrated with this campaign.”
Humiliated Huma FINALLY dumps sexting Weiner: Hillary’s top aide separates from her husband just hours after he sent an admirer a photo of his crotch while their four-year-old son slept beside him
Huma Abedin has revealed in a statement that she is separating from her husband Anthony Weiner in the wake of his latest sexting scandal
‘Anthony and I remain devoted to doing what is best for our son, who is the light of our life,’ said Abedin in a statement, referencing their four-year-old son Jordan
Abedin was seen smiling in the Hamptons Sunday at around 7pm while travelling to a fundraiser with Hillary Clinton
Hours later, it was revealed that Weiner had allegedly been caught in a sexting scandal for the third time in five years
One of the photos Weiner, 51, allegedly sent to the unknown woman was a picture of his manhood in boxer briefs while his son lay asleep next to him in bed
Later that evening, Clinton was seen leaving the fundraiser and getting into a waiting van, but Abedin was nowhere to be seen
PRIVACY…..RIGHT Julian Assange: Hillary Clinton is Protected by “Elite Immunity” from Prosecution
“What’s happening is a form of elite immunity. Now, Hillary Clinton, her administration with Obama has prosecuted more journalists and journalist sources, including us and our sources, under the Espionage Act, than all previous presidents combined… When you see that Hillary Clinton has not been prosecuted for over 100 classified messages that she has exchanged including ones with classified labels, that is elite immunity.”

Camarota explained that this large expansion in Muslim migration would be part of a massive increase in overall immigration, which the U.S. could experience under a President Hillary Clinton. Camarota noted that Clinton could potentially add as many as 10 million new immigrants to the U.S. during her first term alone, on top of the millions of illegal immigrants to whom she would grant immediate amnesty.

CEO Got 671% Pay Raise While Hiking the Price of Epi-Pens The CEO of the company that drastically increased the price of EpiPens got huge pay increases over the years, with her salary reaching nearly $19 million annually.
According to filings reported by NBC News, Mylan Pharmaceuticals CEO Heather Bresch’s yearly compensation rose from $2,453,456 in 2007 to $18,931,068 last year.
In 2007, the Epi-Pen’s wholesale price was $56.64, but it has now grown 460% to a whopping $317.82. The company’s stock price more than tripled over that period.
Bresch is the daughter of Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) and some have called for congressional hearings after learning of her huge pay hikes amid the Epi-Pen price increases

The University of Missouri’s (MU) flagship Columbia campus has officially lost a staggering 23 percent of its freshman class this year, an even worse figure than administrators initially predicted in the wake of major racial strife.
The decline is wreaking havoc on the school’s budget, which has a hole of about $30 million. To contain costs and reflect its shrinking population, the school has already shuttered several dormitories.

AT LEAST THEY DIDN’T GO TO A CHRISTIAN BAKER AND FORCE THEM TO MAKE THIS GARBAGE OR GET SUED… JUST BECAUSE Five police officers denied service at Louisville Taco Bell The Louisville Police Department says the officers went to the Taco Bell on Preston Highway for their lunch break. They say a man at the counter turned to other employees and said he wasn’t taking their order and then walked away.
The officers say another employee walked toward the register to take the orders, but they say they then overheard a conversation between two employees making the food.
“One of these young men, told the other employee, ‘I wanna mess with them. I wanna mess with them.’ And then he followed that up by saying, ‘I’m going to mess with them,” Louisville FOP President Dave Mutchler said.
The police officers say they walked out of the restaurant at that point.
In a statement, both Taco Bell and the Louisville franchise owner said they have apologized to Louisville Police and directly to the five officers. The franchise owner says police made it clear that they didn’t want any of the employees to be fired.
The owner said he plans to re-train staff at his Taco Bell.

Leaked Docs: Soros Aims to Enlarge Electorate by 10 Million Voters by 2018
THIS LOUT CAN’T BE RELEGATED TO HELLFIRE AND DAMNATION SOON ENOUGH
Soros donated $3 million to the Immigrant Voters Win PAC, which was established to fund the Families Fight Back campaign. That campaign aims to register 400,000 Hispanic voters in swing states before the November elections.
J. Christian Adams, president of the Public Interest Legal Foundation, a nonprofit law firm that litigates to defend election integrity, said that Soros is spending big to transform American elections.
“George Soros is involved in every aspect of manipulating the rules of American elections,” Adams told the Washington Free Beacon. “From funding Pew’s efforts to centralize election administration, to fueling litigation that attacks election integrity laws, to fanning the flames of racial agitation and polarization, Soros dollars are doing all they can to fundamentally transform American elections.”

About 45 percent of registered voters in California are now Democrats, the highest proportion in more than a decade.
Fail: Expert Says Obamacare Might Be on the Brink of Total Collapse
OBAMACARE IS WORKING EXACTLY AS IT WAS DESIGNED…. COLLAPSE THE PRIVATE HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY AND LEAVE THE GOVERNMENT AS THE ONLY ALTERNATIVE.
“What the politicians need to do is to understand they have got about a year to fix this,” he said in an interview with CNBC’s “Closing Bell.” … “If we don’t get some very significant fixes to Obamacare, the math is simple. These plans can’t continue the way it’s going. And that undermines the coverage that all of these people have gotten,”
“You have seen that there’s been some closing of the gap in the national polls over the last few days, but the swing state polls still are very bad for Trump,” he said. “I think one of the reasons for that is he has been subjected to an incredible barrage of negative advertising from the Clinton campaign.

Dems: Calling Hillary “Mrs. Clinton” Is Sexist
OBAMA USES HIS RACE, HILLARY USES HER VAGINA
“Please Don’t Call Her ‘Mrs. Clinton’” appeals Julie Antonellis, Editor-in-Chief of The Progressive, asserting that using the gender-specific honorific, as opposed to her official titles of “Secretary” or “Senator,” is one of the “rhetorical strategies her opponents employ” to diminish her.
Did you ever wonder what it’s like to be able to tell the most outlandish lies and never, ever get called on it? Promise people things you never deliver on and they still remain blindly loyal? Keep your power over those either too ignorant, apathetic, or both by buying their loyalty with money you take from people who disagree/despise/loathe you? Welcome to the world of liberal politics. We’ve suffered irreparable damage at the hands of a sadistic, uncaring Muslim bastard who attained the highest job in the world on absolutely nothing more than his skin color and a media horde who carried him on their shoulders, never letting anybody know about the past he had sealed by court order before he ever ran for office. He won every race by getting his competition eliminated. He used whoever was useful and promptly threw them all away save one… Valerie ‘Rasputin’ Jarrett. He’s never hidden his utter contempt for the country and enough people don’t care that he lasted 8 long years. If he could, he’d run again and win in another landslide.
Now comes Hillary Clinton, the jilted woman left at the altar as the MSM fell head over heels with the Chicago street hustler. Since the day he took the nomination and the job she’d been promised away from her, she has assumed the role as the heir apparent. Nothing on earth will stop her. Even if Trump didn’t run for president as a massive ego trip, even if he could/would do any of the things his supporters think he will, he has virtually no chance of winning. No republican would. I doubt we’ll see another Republican president within 20 years, if ever. Cankles will get to pick 2-3 Supreme Court justices, and the Constitution as we have known it will be no more. A majority of the black-robed demigods will view it as a ‘living, breathing document’ and be free to interpret it any way they like.
The media whores have hardly mentioned a word about the devastating floods in Louisiana this week, where 13 people died and 40,000 homes have been destroyed. Why? Bush isn’t president anymore. King Barack I was on his last free vacation and he wasn’t going to cut it short since there weren’t enough blacks displaced to make it worth the effort. There’s this thing called youtube to show his blatant hypocrisy. He couldn’t care less.
When Obama Blasted President Bush For Flying Over Louisiana Devastation What a difference a few years makes. The lib media and the left hammered George W. Bush mercilessly during Hurricane Katrina. Today in Louisiana, we have the worse natural disaster since Hurricane Sandy, 40,000 homes in Louisiana underwater, 30,000 people rescued, thousands packed into emergency shelters and President Obama is playing golf on Martha’s Vineyard with no intention whatsoever of cutting his 2 week vacation short because he’s getting ‘updates’ on what’s happening in Louisiana. And the media? The very same people who gave Bush hell give Obama a pass. Nothing to see here…

“Well, the real question here is whether Secretary Clinton has been taking questions from reporters, which she absolutely has,” Mook said. “We went and counted and she has been in more than 300 interviews with reporters this year alone. I know she’s been on your show, and we’re going to continue to do that and there are a lot of different formats in which she can engage with reporters, whether it’s those one-on-one interviews, whether it’s talking with her traveling press reporters, or a press conference, and we’re going to look at all of those as we move forward.

THEY WILL NOT LET THE PRESIDENCY FALL INTO REPUBLICAN HANDS… ESPECIALLY TRUMP’S.
Hillary had several chances over the years to treat her Secret Service detail with kindness and respect. She chose instead to berate them and treat them like second class citizens.

THE VERY SAME MEDIA WHO DELIBERATELY IGNORES THE ABOVE ALSO IGNORES:
PROTESTERS Crash Trump Fundraiser, BEAT AND ROB Trump Supporters Leaving MN Convention Center
The liberal media and #NeverTrumpers frequently report on the angry and hostile Trump supporters who hurl verbal insults at the far left press during rallies.
This same media continually covers up the bloody frequent physical assaults of Trump supporters attending rallies and fundraisers for the GOP candidate. Last night in Minneapolis Hillary supporters beat and robbed Trump supporters and stormed the convention center during the Trump fundraiser.
A Trump supporter was repeatedly punched in the gut by a Hillary supporter outside the Minneapolis Convention Center on Friday night.
Police and Media Silent in Wake of Brutal Attacks on Trump Supporters Mary Susan, a Donald Trump supporter does not blame the police for the incident last night but called the actions of anti-Trump protesters “vile.”
In an interview with Alpha News, Mary Susan says “the true victims of the protesters were the young children that had to watch.”
SUPPORT TRUMP…GET YOUR ASS KICKED Hillary Supporters Commit Voter Fraud in Nevada
The two Hillary supporters were signing up individuals to vote in the upcoming election while displaying ‘Stand Up to Trump’ posters with a crazy picture of Donald Trump and what looks like the same Democratic line translated at the bottom of their poster in Spanish.
Individuals who sign people up to vote are expected by law to be non-partisan.
THEY’RE DEMOCRATS… THEY’RE ALLOWED Imagine the Liberal Outrage If Those Naked Trump Statues Were of Hillary Clinton
LET’S PUT UP STATUES OF OBAMA….SKINNY NEGRO, EARS LIKE AN ELEPHANT, AND LIPS LIKE INNER TUBES. EVERYBODY WOULD THINK THAT WAS HILARIOUS, RIGHT? RIGHT?
Here in New York, the erection of the statue — which features a teeny Trumpy weeny and testicles nowhere to be seen — was an immediate hit in Union Square. It became a popular selfie destination on Thursday, before the NYC Parks Department took it down.
Black Man Calls Out Black Lives Matter For Not Helping Louisiana Flood Victims
THAT’S EASY, HOMEY…THEY CAN’T LOOT STORES THAT ARE UNDERWATER McAuliffe Restores Voting Rights For 13,000 Felons In Virginia THE VIRGINIA STATE SUPREME COURT STRUCK DOWN HIS EXECUTIVE ORDER GRANTING VOTING RIGHTS TO 200,000 FELONS.
McAULIFFE: F*CK YOU, I’M DOING IT ANYWAY. GOTTA HELP MY GIRL STEAL THIS ELECTION.
McAuliffe will announce that he has restored voting rights to the 13,000 felons, making them free to register once again, according to the two people, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to disclose his plans. McAuliffe also will lay out his plans to restore rights to the remainder of the 200,000.
These voters are most likely to vote Democratic in an effort to shift the purple state to a more reliably blue one. This will certainly boost Hillary Clinton’s chances come November
DEMOCRATS WILL NEVER LOSE A MAJOR ELECTION WHEN THE MEDIA ARE WORKING HARD TO HELP THEM

I’LL BET IT WAS EDDIE HASKELL

DONALD TRUMP Heads to Louisiana Tomorrow – While Obama Vacations, Hillary Rests UNFORTUNATELY, THE MEDIA IS IN FULL CLINTON COVER-UP MODE, SO YOU WON’T HEAR MUCH ABOUT THIS
Trump addressed the flooding at a rally in Charlotte, N.C. Thursday night, calling Louisiana “a state that is very, very special to me.”
“Though words cannot express the sadness one feels at times like this,” Trump said, “I hope everyone in Louisiana knows that our country is praying for them, and standing with them to help them in these difficult hours.”
Obama will be vacationing in Martha’s Vineyard.
Hillary Clinton has no rallies or speeches planned until Sunday. Hillary has nothing scheduled on her calendar until Sunday.
White House: No, Obama Won’t Take Break From His Vacation To Visit Flood Ravaged Louisiana
THE REASONS ARE SIMPLE:
#1….HE CAN’T BLAME IT ON BUSH
#2…HE CAN’T BE DISTRACTED FROM THE IMORTANT BUSINESS OF WORKING ON HIS SHORT GAME
#3…NOT ENOUGH BLACKS DISPLACED TO MAKE RACE PIMPING WORTH IT
Obama has issued no public or written statements about the flooding. The White House said he has been receiving regular updates and briefings on the situation throughout the vacation, including from Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards. Obama also approved a federal disaster declaration for affected areas of the state. Clinton Foundation Will Stop Taking Foreign, Corporate Donations if Hillary Elected
FORMER PRESIDENT BEN T. PENIS WILL, HOWEVER, CONTINUE TO COLLECT $500,000 SPEAKING FEES FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES.
The Clinton Foundation will no longer accept foreign and corporate donations if Hillary Clinton is elected president.
Former President Bill Clinton tells staff members on Thursday that it will also hold its final Clinton Global Initiative meeting in September in New York, regardless of the outcome of the November election.
Holding wide leads in multiple swing states over Donald Trump and projected to have an 88 percent chance to win the presidency, Clinton told supporters at a Philadelphia rally this week to not get “complacent.” Sen. Tim Kaine (D., Va.), her running mate, said he always feels like an underdog until he has won his race.
“As Clinton counts down the days, her campaign strategy is to play it safe,” Cordes said. “She has not had an official press conference in 258 days. Her last network interview was nearly three weeks ago, where she got tripped up again answering questions about her emails.”
Hillary Clinton Laughs Off Question About Her Health MY GRANDMOTHER HAD AN OLD BEDSPREAD MADE OF THIS MATERIAL… I SWEAR.

Lefties: Bill Clinton is Probably a Rapist But He’s Still a Good Feminist, Okay? I REMEMBER VIVIDLY A SUNDAY TALK SHOW AFTER THE JUANITA BRODERICK CAME TO LIGHT. SOME FEMINAZI WAS ON “THIS WEEK” ALONG WITH BILL BENNETT. THE HAG ADMITTED, SURE, HE MAY BE A RAPIST, BUT HE’S WITH US ON SO MANY OTHER ISSUES. BENNETT SIMPLY STATED: ‘IF YOU’RE GOING TO BE A RAPIST,YOU BETTER BE PRO-ABORTION.’
But the latest excusal comes from Wonkette, where Rebecca Schoenkopf admits Clinton likely raped Juanita Broadderick, but because he called apologize he should be forgiven and simply because he likely raped her doesn’t mean he’s a “bad feminist.”
Lil Poopy – the 13-year-old rapper who became famous aged 9 for his raunchy videos about money and hoes – lands Sony-Epic record deal
Sony-Epic have signed a four-year record deal with 13-year-old Lil Poopy
The young rapper, real name Luis Rivera Jr., gained notoriety aged nine
He appeared in a music video rapping about machine guns and cocaine
Youngster was seen spanking a grown woman’s behind, as he sang about being a ‘bad boy’ and a ‘coke boy’ and plans to ‘make a girl my groupie’
Authorities said the sexually suggestive videos amounted to child abuse
But charged against Poopy’s father Luis Rivera Snr. were later dropped
Lil Poopy also appeared in first series of The Rap Game with Jermaine Dupri earlier this year but lost out on a record contract to Miss Mulato
THE KIND OF HUMAN DEBRIS THAT GLORIFIES THIS BEHAVIOR FROM A 9 YEAR OLD IS WHAT’S WRONG WITH OUR CULTURE.

Milwaukee Man Shot By Police Blood Gangbanger & Cousin Calling For “Gallon Of Blood” From Every Cop? #MilwaukeeUprising #BlackLivesMatter
The armed black man shot in Milwaukee yesterday after fleeing police officers was probably Blood gangbanger of some kind. YA THINK?
He refers to him as a “Blood,” and uses hashtags referencing the “Trill Vill Gang.” The dead man named “Syville/Savill Smith” is pictured with a rifle.
Police have not confirmed the dead man’s name yet, but if it is Syville/Savill Smith, it is yet another #BlackLivesMatter “martyr” who is actually a known gangbanger, just like Philando Castile and Alton Sterling, as GotNews proved.
The police have confirmed that the dead man has a long criminal record and died with a stolen gun. Gangbanger? Most likely.
At one point, the officers got in their cars to leave and some in the crowd started smashing the windows and side of a squad car that appeared to be demolished. Another vehicle was set on fire. As officers returned to the scene, this time many more in riot gear, three or four gunshots could be heard about 8:45 p.m.
Soon thereafter, the crowd turned on and attacked reporters and a photographer from the Journal Sentinel. One reporter was shoved to the ground and punched.
Milwaukee agitators shout ‘black power,’ attack white drivers
Race agitators in Milwaukee used the police shooting of an unarmed armed black man to burn down their city and attack white people.
Several videos show white drivers being stopped in the middle of the street and the “protesters” attempting to pull them out of their vehicles.
“They’re beating every white person!” one of the agitators shouted in the video. “They jumpin’ every white person.”
When the mob spotted a white driver, they attempted to block his car from passing.
“He white! Beat his sh*t!” the man yelled.
Milwaukee Rioter: Rich People Got All This Money… ‘Don’t Give Us None’ – So We Burn Gas Stations
Rioters Torched Several Milwaukee Businesses on Saturday Night
Protester: “It’s sad, because you know, this what happened because they not helping the black community, like you know, the rich people, they got all this money, and they, like not trying to give us none.”
Wisconsin Dem Party Vice Chair David Bowen Appears To Justify Milwaukee Rioters: “People Have Reached The Boiling Point!”
Wisconsin Democratic Party Vice Chair David Bowen, who was on scene, appears to be encouraging or at least not condemning riots with this tweet. He also retweeted the claim that the man shot by the police had been shot in the back, after the police had said that the man was shot in the chest and the arm and retweeted this ‘justification’. Yup, looting, burning businesses, knocking over light poles and beating up white people (none of which had anything to do with alleged police brutality) is understandable because ‘we’re hurting’. Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke Requests Mobilization Of National Guard
Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke has requested the mobilization of the National Guard in the wake of violence that erupted in the City of Milwaukee late Saturday, August 13th and early Sunday, August 14th. Clarke made the request after consulting with Gov. Scott Walker and Major Gen. Donald Dunbar of the Wisconsin National Guard.
Tom Barrett,the mayor of Milwaukee, is a democrat. Don’t look for a lot of support.
The only way to quell this nonsense is a shoot on sight order which, of course, will never happen. Wish it would.
I’m so tired of this crap, I can’t wait until November.
Thanks be to the programming gods who scheduled the crosstown series between the Chicago Cubs and White Sox the same time as the taffy pull AKA the Democrat National Convention. To simplify things, this is mostly a video montage of some of the lunacy that passes for liberal/socialism these days.

Obama to tap Democratic nostalgia in bid to sell Clinton to divided party With resentment still simmering among supporters of Sen. Bernard Sanders over Mrs. Clinton’s pending nomination, White House spokesman Eric Schultz said Mr. Obama wants to remind Democrats that “the choice for voters could not be starker” between Mrs. Clinton and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.
“The president has been candid about why he thinks electing the Republican nominee is a risky path for the United States,” Mr. Schultz said, but the speech “will much more focus on how Secretary Clinton has the judgment, the toughness and the intellect to succeed him in the Oval Office.”

Ross also reported that a private dinner with Clinton costs $200,000.
Ross described how DNC finance director Jordan Kaplan had a bigger donor moved next to President Obama at an event and a cancer patient moved to a less prominent seat.
Cook County property tax bills cause outrage
THIS IS WHY I DON’T GO NEAR CROOK COUNTY
CHICAGO (WLS) —
Cook County taxpayers are outraged after property tax bills showed up in the mail. The bills are skyrocketing this year.
AND THEY CALLED ME A CRIMINAL
The bills that arrived over the weekend reflect rising Cook County real estate values and, in Chicago, the city’s $588 million levy increase. Most of it is to restore police and firefighter pensions that Mayor Rahm Emanuel says his predecessors underfunded.
“A number of people across the spectrum, politically, denied, deferred and delayed the day of judgement,” said Mayor Emanuel.
