So. Supposedly, according to CPD the two people in the video (who Jussie identified as his attackers) were Jussie’s friends.

I’m with you. The very first thing that jumped out at me is that a guy from Empire is claiming he was recognized on the street well past midnight in Chicago by MAGA rednecks who just so happened to have everything they could possibly need to attack him in a very racially specific way. Jeb and Cletus (avid fans of both…

he definitely got some injuries, that seems without dispute. It also sounds like *something* happened (since he was apparently on the phone with someone that heard stuff.) but the rest of the story is so insane, that it is a little hard to take it on face value- the implication is that two people were stalking him to…

Anyone who isn’t a total fucking idiot has to have a pretty strong inclination that this story is fake. It stretches credulity.

I think its obvious that black folx don’t need to explain their humanity, but I do think if they want my vote, they have to explain their policies. You think someone is going to win an election by saying “I don’t have to explain anything to white folks, not my responsibility.” It’s astounding you think that will be…

I saw that, too. (Largely inspired my vitriol toward this green deal story). My favorite bit, from the AP story:

That’s the cut of it.

Dems had no problem funding a wall for Obama but it's a problem when Trump asks? Politicians are hypocrites...all of them. The Democrats are the worst by far. Sorry radical left wing dems. Once they have full control of our government anyone who put them there will feel like a huge dumbas*.

Did they comment on how the woman in congress didn’t clap about stopping sex trafficing but did clap to pat themselves on the back? So they are pro congratulating themselves but hate ice stopping sex trafficers

Or a 29 year old attempting to launch a proposal that would completely reorganize American society in 10 years and yet have no idea how to pay for any of it

We should give everyone the benefit of the doubt until they prove themselves unworthy of it.  

So what?! They paid them back. If not the government, they would have secured loans some other way. It’s called capitalism and it works.

The problem here is that people have convinced themselves that all Trump supporters are Nazi or Klansman. And if they were actually correct about this, they would have a point. But the SPLC estimates that there may be up to 8,000 KKK members in the U.S. as of 2017. I believe that I have read, although I can’t find…

I guess I just think, for ideas as sweeping as “Net Zero Emissions in A Decade” you shouldn’t float it as a Congressional Resolution, even a non-binding one, without having a bit more concrete support for how it might even be plausible. I’m not asking for a 1000 point plan with a crunch timeline that goes down to the…

“Decided to commit a racist murder” is an awfully inflammatory way to say, “entertained a revenge fantasy against a different race after the rape of his friend by someone of that race.”

Seriously bad article. I know this is a blog, and not a real news organization with standards, but you can at least try. 

My advice would be not to take advice from Sam Barsanti

Based on your own logic, being non-white, you can’t comment on Liam Niesen.  Because you don’t have the range.
