I would not be surprised if it was a "say this or resign" situation.
Yeah right.

Something wrong with you if you're a black republican in america
*insertBlackishepisodeaboutsonbeingRepublican*
He defends everything the Republicans and Trump has done no matter how racist and crazy it is.Not at all a fan of trying to strip someone's blackness away from them because you disagree with them. Blackness is not a set of political beliefs and implying otherwise propagates the myth that black people are a monolith. They aren't.
The one silver lining about stuff like this is finding out which celebs are cool.
.@DreamHost says DOJ has ordered it to turn over logs that would reveal the IPs of visitors to an anti-Trump site.

I can't fathom what it must be like being the host to this pointless nonsense. Literally everyday solving nothing, watching emotions and identity politics lead word dribble rather than articulated, clear positions inform the chosen words and debate.
When do we get a re-enactment of the opening scene of Newsroom?
One of the many downsides was having to throw John Carpenter's Vampires and Videodrome in the trash.
Aside from obviously being disingenuous, him not mentioning "alt-right" will be the way these groups try to get a pass. We all know they're all the same, but I can already picture the argument being, "he said KKK and Nazis. We're neither. We're the Alt-right. He hasn't condemned us."

I feel like this should be a new thread.https://twitter.com/bradheath/status/897195058163830784
At least DoJ is looking into this..... or not.
Fucking what?https://twitter.com/bradheath/status/897195058163830784

Yeah right.
Given the ease in which Paris started to drag out as much vitriol and highlight his and his families' experiences with racism, that felt utterly deliberate. Like, his offence, was deliberate.
Like, his motivation was to go on there, derail any and all debate about the President's lack of action on the subject of combating the growing trend to hate groups in the US, and present a stereotypical caricature of an angry black person. It's fucking disgusting.
Yeah, Alt Right is their modern tag and he deliberately didn't mention it again.
I'm surprised at how quickly the internet is demonising the Antifa, well the media too.
When up against 100% Nazi scum. NAZI SCUM. Wow.
Can CNN just stop having pieces of shit on? Its like they got rid of Jeffrey Lord so now Paris has to step up and become even worse.

Lol pure bullshit right hereI see this from two viewpoints, one it doesn't matter what Trump said or didn't say. Its gonna fall short for anyone who hates him, He could come out and behead a Nazi on stage and people would say it wasn't slow enough and he gave the Nazi too quick a death. So people were going to be outraged by anything he says anyway.
Whew ok good, thought I missed something with CarpenterI believe they're talking about James Woods, not John Carpenter. It's just that Wood's best movies were with Carpenter.
Oh and (fittingly) Ghosts of Mississippi.

On the other side of things. I'm guessing the GOP leaders had to drag Trump out in front of a Camera and denounce this shit. Now I don't think Trump is some kind of secret KKK member, I honestly don't. He is all about himself, and anything that takes the news camera off him is something he doesn't want to deal with. He is a business man, and what do business men do, they try to make as many customers as happy as possible, that includes anyone who may vote for him. Having these huge over arching generalizations that should be a condemnation of a specific group, no matter who they be, are just him trying to keep votes for the next election.

This statement allows right-wing talking heads to go on news programs and say "What more do you want? The left screamed for days about how he didn't disavow white nationalists and now he did. This guy can never win. Why are we still going in about this?"
I haven't watched cable news today, but I'd appreciate it if anyone who has can confirm that this has already happened.

Trump just condemned the Pharma CEO again on twitter.
@realDonaldTrump 6m
.@Merck Pharma is a leader in higher & higher drug prices while at the same time taking jobs out of the U.S. Bring jobs back & LOWER PRICES!
With the way he capes for Trump, it's safe he say he has no shame.How you can be a black man living in America and support Trump, I'll never understand. Is it money? Is it the illusion of "power"? This guy, Paris, he has no shame, has he?
Merck CEO leaving his presidential council spurred a reaction within hours.
Took two shots at Merck on Twitter today, but it took him 2 days to read a text that denounces Neo-Nazis and the KKK.
Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump)
Made additional remarks on Charlottesville and realize once again that the #Fake News Media will never be satisfied...truly bad people!
