November 21, 2018
All of these are jokes, but none of them are funny.

April Ryan To President Trump: “I’m Not A Loser” (Video)
November 20, 2018
Another “enemy” of the people Trump’s with a rebuttal. Get him sista. GET HIM! Yeezus! When you find yourself in a hole, stop digging. Unless you’re Trump – who, as Gloria Berger aptly declares that he is “just defining the Presidency downward… every single day.” Damn. Just. Damn.
CNN political analyst April Ryan responds to President Donald Trump’s comment in which he called her a “loser” who “doesn’t know what the she is doing.”

November 20, 2018
Hahahaa! Extra funny because we’re in Atlanta (a place that Amazon was looking at for that new HQ). Extra EXTRA funny because this sketch’s got jokes that’ll probably make a certain U.S. President BIG MAD #SickBurn

Politics: Hasan Minhaj On ‘Saudi Arabia’ (Video)
November 13, 2018
Wow! So this is what Hasan left Comedy Central to do. Flexing his woke muscles on stage on the world stage. There’s definitely an intentional ‘stand up’ feel to this show, but no joke. Dude is, and has always been, hella woke!
Hasan Minhaj tackles the reality of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman’s autocratic rule and, as a Muslim and an American, breaks down why the world should reassess its relationship with Saudi Arabia.

Jim Acosta Speaks On His Confrontation With President Trump (Video)
November 13, 2018
Remember when the question kept coming up during Campaign 2016, “Does Donald Trump have the TEMPERAMENT to be President of the United States?” That part.
Answer… NO, he does not.
Even if he thinks reporters are asking unfair or disrespect questions, this is NOT how the leader of the free world should respond. Point. Blank. Period. That said, the reporters, Jim Acosta included, were just doing their jobs. Not as the ‘enemy’ but they are allies; necessary in keeping us informed about what The President and other officials are doing in our name. But don’t you worry about The President attacking members of the press. They can take care of themselves, especially on CNN.

Candidate Stacey Abrams Speaks On Her Historic Campaign To Become Governor Of Georgia (Video)
November 6, 2018
If you have done so already, thank you. But now, and in the future, I gotta keep screaming, “VOTE DAMMIT!” Because it is so important. So beyond the “your ancestors fought and died for the rights you enjoy and have a duty to maintain and fight for” rhetoric. Get in that booth and get into true governance of these United States if you are a citizen. Nothing wrong with ‘making America great’ but if you don’t VOTE then the how, who, and what of that will be determined by those who do and who they elect. Point. Blank. Period.
That said, here’s a lady who wants every Georgia voter to check her box at the polls…
Georgia Democratic gubernatorial nominee Stacey Abrams discusses her passion for criminal justice reform and her effort to get more people of color registered to vote.

Candidate Andrew Gillum Speaks On Race In The Race To Be Florida’s Governor And In Politics As Usual (Video)
November 5, 2018
Wow. My elders and peers used to always say, “A hit dog’ll holler,” too!
Democratic nominee Andrew Gillum lays out the role of race in the Florida governor’s race, his plan to help all Floridians and how he’d handle Republican opposition if elected.
– The Daily Show With Trevor Noah
Felt compelled to post something political, progressive, and positive with the big mid-terms coming up. President Obama was stumping for Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams AND for this candidate in Florida’s race, Andrew Gillum.

Trevor Noah Declares Trump’s Creation Of ‘Caravan Hysteria’ To Wield As A Weapon Ahead Of Midterm Elections (Video)
November 1, 2018
Hey, Fox News. Hey President Trump. Those thousands of people you are stoking fear about are NOT an invasion. They are coming to apply for asylum, as is their legal right and the expectation the U.S. has set worldwide for the “tired… poor… huddled masses, yearning to breathe free.” You know, that part!
You are NOT fooling me. You are NOT fooling thoughtful people who will go to the polls next Tuesday (and even now, with early voting) and letting you and your ilk know that we are not your ‘fools.’ #TurnOffFoxNews #TuneOutTrump #VoteThemAllOutTuesday
As the midterm elections near, Trump and Fox News dial up the migrant caravan hysteria as the administration orders 5,200 active duty troops to the southern border to stop a non-threat.

And that closing with Shepard Smith (longtime Fox News reporter, by the way) was a perfect ‘Moment Of Zen’ way to close this ‘The Daily Show’ (live from Miami) clip.

Journalist Bob Woodward Speaks President Trump’s Relationship With The Media And His Comments On Recent Tragedies (Video)
November 1, 2018
When it comes to having a seat at the table in political discussions, Bob Woodard’s place is saved permanently (see “Watergate,” because we would not have seen it, or President Nixon resigning because of it, without his reporting)! Maybe he is just echoing what is already constantly said about President Trump, but I will ALWAYS lean in when this guy is speaking on something. Perspectives like his are NEEDED in our world today.

Comedians Dave Chappelle And Jon Stewart Speak On The Era Of President Trump And Their Comedy (Video)
November 1, 2018
Two of the most brilliantly funny and thoughtful comedians ever – Dave Chappelle and Jon Stewart – sit down with one of the best news commentators today, Christiane Amanpour. Score for CNN… and for us all.
(And Dave says we should NOT consider this the ‘Trump Era’ as he is not worthy and we don’t deserve that. Point taken. Good one.)

Angela Rye Speaks On Why The Coming Midterm Elections Matter And Kanye Being Down With Trump (Video)
October 26, 2018
The mid-terms are coming up, and you may even have ‘early voting’ going on in your community right now. I’m not going to try to guilt you into anything, but you REALLY ought to vote this go ’round… the local representation is where it’s at. There are no ‘electoral college’ counts; your vote helps chose DIRECTLY – Congress, Governors, local offices, ordinances and amendments are all chosen by your vote.
See? If you did not vote in 2016 and you let President Trump happen… we’re not harping on that anymore. It’s done. And the insanity that the President and Senate just put on the U.S. Supreme Court… that was a ‘done deal’ back in 2016 when Trump won. Your action or lack thereof in 2016 affected 2018 politics which affected your LIFE; if the ‘right to choose’ for your body and yours & your children’s schooling means anything. Cavanaugh is the swing vote on those issues coming before the Supreme Court for the rest of his LIFE!
Okay, okay. I will stop and get down off my soapbox. Just VOTE DAMMIT!
Maybe you will listen to fine as wine and woke af activist Angela Rye tell you why.

Comedy: Dear Racist… Don’t Be Scared. And Don’t Call The Cops. Dial 1-844-WYT-FEAR Instead (Video)
October 24, 2018
Hilarious! Plus, Neicy Nash (always nice) is in this.
In this satirical infomercial, the comedian and actress Niecy Nash plays the inventor of a new hotline, 1-844-WYT-FEAR. The video advertises a phone service for White people to call when they can’t cope with Black people living their lives near them. It’s a real phone number we created so that fearful Whites can call it for advice, about their racism.
– The New York Times
So there you have it ‘fearful Whites’… a dedicated hotline just for you to dial up. Or, you could, maybe, just take a deep breath and a pill and go lay down somewhere or something.

Trevor Noah Speaks On GOP Voter Suppression & The Mid-Term Elections In Georgia (Video)
October 19, 2018
Yeah, Trevor. Good point: Funny how EVERY time we catch ‘them’ in a move to pass a law to restrict voting, it ALWAYS affects people of color DISPROPORTIONATELY! And by ‘funny’ I don’t mean… well, I am NOT laughing.
Brian Kemp, the Republican candidate for governor of Georgia, has made efforts to hold up 53,000 voter registrations, 70% of which belong to Black voters, all while maintaining his job as Georgia Secretary of State, a role in which he oversees the very election he’s running in. This is some Africa-level s**t.

Politics: Dave Chappelle Speaks On Kanye West And President Trump (Video)
October 16, 2018
I’m not mad at Kanye. That’s my brother. I love him… I don’t have to agree with everything he says…
– Dave Chappelle
The REALEST talk while still keeping some of the funny in there. We’ve come to expect that from Dave Chappelle. Gotta imagine he has some empathy for an artist who the world has called ‘crazy’ (since he has been there himself).
Comedian Dave Chappelle and Maryland democratic gubernatorial candidate Ben Jealous discuss the political divide in the US since President Trump was elected president with CNN’s Van Jones.

Great interview clip! Very thoughtful conversation.

Comedy: ‘Kanye West’ Has Some Words… The Best Words… For ‘President Trump’ (Video)
October 15, 2018
Bwaaaaahahaaaa! Got eeem!
Kanye had to know that that public, very public, White House sit-down with President Trump was going to land him smack dab in the middle of a bunch of memes, spoofs, and other forms of Tom Foolery at his expense. And SNL got it IN on him!

Politics: Conservatives Love Kanye West’s Repping ‘Make America Great Again’ While Wanting Taylor Swift To ‘Shush’ Again (Video)
October 15, 2018
(Click here to watch on Facebook.)
Nope. Not gonna let Taylor finish… again.
How interesting… and predictable. Talking heads on the right want famous folks to ‘shut up’ and dribble, sing or whatever… unless they dribble the rhetoric they want to hear.
How dare Kanye West say President George W. Bush does care about Black people back in the day. Oh, wait. He’s spitting some of that ‘free thinking’ Make America Great Again (MAGA)? Ahhh, he’s a refreshing right-wing converted icon now.
(Hmmm… remember wifey Kim Kardashian West was just up at the White House months ago. Let’s see how all this plays out. Gotta find five years of reality TV footage for that “Who’s House? Trump’s House!” show premiering after the 2020 elections. Ha!)
And Taylor Swift. She is out of line with the right. Speaking out of turn, so according to the right-wing pundits, it is time for her to go back to singing and stay out of politics like a good girl.
Here’s The Breakdown.

Activism/Politics: Dear Young People, “Don’t Vote” (Video)
October 8, 2018
This ad by Occupy Democrats is good, scary good. Don’t think it will ‘scare’ millennials, but maybe it will get them thinking… maybe even ‘dared’ into voting in next month’s midterm elections.
Hope so #KnockTheVote #VoteDammit

Anti-Kaepernick Car Ranter’s Argument Is Wrong… Loud And Wrong (Video)
October 2, 2018
Getting the feeling, from this clip, that Graham Allen is the guy who should sit and pose for the picture in the urban dictionary next to ‘loud and wrong.’ When your argument’s base premise is FALSE and the fallen soldier you use as anecdotal support for your argument believed the OPPOSITE of what you argue… “That’s When Ya LOST” (word to Souls Of Mischief)!
In his latest VIRAL car rant Graham Allen tries to use Pat Tillman as a counter to Colin Kaepernick. Hasan Piker explains why this shameless “patriotsploitation†is a slap in the face to Tillman’s legacy and against his family’s wishes.

The U.S. Tax Code Favors The Rich… Just Ask This Millionaire (Video)
September 27, 2018
Damn. Even this rich guy shows us his tax return. Waiting on you, President Trump…
This millionaire revealed his tax return to show just how much the GOP tax law favors the rich.
– NowThis Opinions
Yep. The rich get richer, as the poor get shafted. And make no mistake, Eric Schoenberg is playing the game as it is; taking every tax advantage afforded him (because, like President Trump says, he is ‘smart’). But at least he’s honest about what the ‘game’ really is.
