The so called community kills yet another cop. Why does the so called media not tell the story of the number in this long-standing trend?
The man who allegedly killed a Mississippi police officer and Air Force veteran was captured on Monday, officials said.
Darian Tawan Atkinson, 19, is accused of fatally shooting Officer Robert McKeithen, of the Biloxi Police Department, outside of the agency's headquarters on Sunday night.

Anyone think the deck is stacked?
The View" co-host Meghan McCain and "Late Night" host Seth Meyers butted heads on Wednesday morning's show over McCain's criticisms of Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn, who has repeatedly been accused of anti-Semitism.
It escalated to the point where McCain asked the NBC host if he was Omar's "publicist."

So a white female news anchor dares to ask a question the so called community does not like and just like that. Off with her head. Forget all about the past three black female mayors are corrupt and lining their pockets.
A Baltimore TV anchor was ousted days after she received backlash for asking a question surrounding the race, gender and leadership abilities of the city’s recent mayors that some viewers deemed “racist and sexist.”
Mary Bubala, the anchor for CBS affiliate WJZ-TV’s 4 p.m. and 5 p.m. newscasts, no longer worked at the television station as of Monday, four days after her question to Loyola University Maryland professor Karsonya “Kaye” Wise Whitehead led to a firestorm of criticism, the station’s manager Audra Swain told the Baltimore Sun.
The anchorwoman began receiving backlash on Thursday after she interviewed Whitehead on-air and asked about the last three Baltimore mayors — Sheila Dixon, Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, and Catherine Pugh, who resigned last week amid state and federal investigations into sales of her children’s book.
“We’ve had three female, African-American mayors in a row. They were all passionate public servants. Two resigned, though. Is this a signal that a different kind of leadership is needed to move Baltimore City forward?” Bubala asked Whitehead.
Whitehead responded to the question by saying she did not believe the Maryland city needed a change in leadership.

Whitehead responded to the question by saying she did not believe the Maryland city needed a change in leadership. So, if there had been three white male mayors in a row and she asked if it was time for change...do we think there would be an outcry? Its easy to see who the real racists are in this story. |

The United Nations has elected several countries with poor women’s rights records to boards charged with promoting those rights -- leading one critic to compare the decision to “asking the fox to guard the chickens.”
The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Lebanon, Nigeria and Sierra Leone were among those elected by the U.N.'s Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) to the Executive Board of the U.N. Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (U.N. Women), while Somalia was among those elected to the U.N. Commission on the Status of Women.
“The election to U.N. women’s rights bodies of countries such as Somalia, where female genital mutilation is widespread, or the Democratic Republic of Congo, which many consider the rape capital of the world, is a betrayal of the UN’s founding principles,” Hillel Neuer, executive director of U.N. Watch, an independent monitoring group based in Switzerland, told Fox News.
“By placing regimes that are complicit with some of the worst crimes committed against women to global leadership posts on women’s equality, the U.N. is saying that they don’t really care about the rights of women,” he said. “This just sends absolutely the wrong message.”

WALTON, Ky. (CBS Local) — The high school senior who went to court after he was barred from playing basketball because he wasn’t vaccinated against chickenpox has come down with the illness, his lawyer said Tuesday.
Jerome Kunkel, 18, got sick with chickenpox last week, nearly two months after the Northern Kentucky health department issued its order to control an outbreak at two small parochial schools in Boone County.
“He’s fine. He’s a little itchy,” Wiest told The Cincinnati Enquirer.

So Jerry Nadler just led the charge to find Barr in contempt of Congress for Barr's insistence on complying with Federal law regarding grand jury testimony. So how did Nadler react when Holder was found in contempt of Congress for actually refusing to comply with the law?

I have enjoyed working here these past several years. You have paid me very well and given me benefits beyond belief. Have 3-4 months off per year and a pension plan that will pay my salary till the day I die and then pay my estate one year salary death bonus and then continue to pay my spouse my salary with increases until she or he dies, and a health plan that most people can only dream of having. Despite this, I plan to take the next 12-18 months to find a new position. During this time, I will show up for work when it is convenient for me. And in addition, I fully expect to draw my full salary and all the other perks associated with my current job.
Oh yes, if my search for this new job proves fruitless, I will be coming back with no loss in pay or status. Before you say anything, remember that you have no choice in this matter I can, and I will do this.
Sincerely,
Every Senator or Congressman running for President in 2020

Whoa
London (CNN Business)Chris Hughes helped Mark Zuckerberg transform Facebook from a dorm-room project into a real business. Now, he's calling for the company to be broken up.
In a lengthy opinion piece published Thursday by the New York Times, Hughes says that Zuckerberg has "unchecked power" and influence "far beyond that of anyone else in the private sector or in government."
It's time, he writes, for regulators to break up Facebook (FB).
"Mark is a good, kind person. But I'm angry that his focus on growth led him to sacrifice security and civility for clicks," writes Hughes.
"I'm disappointed in myself and the early Facebook team for not thinking more about how the News Feed algorithm could change our culture, influence elections and empower nationalist leaders," he continues. "And I'm worried that Mark has surrounded himself with a team that reinforces his beliefs instead of challenging them."
Hughes is the latest in a series of prominent entrepreneurs and tech executives to call for stricter regulation of Facebook and other online platforms. They are speaking out as countries around the world rush to put better controls in place following a wave of scandals related to data privacy, election meddling and the spread of misinformation.
Zuckerberg has signaled that he's open to some regulation. In an opinion piece published in the Washington Post in March, the CEO tried to sketch out areas where he thought regulation should start.
In Hughes view, Facebook's calls for regulation are a way to head off a potential antitrust case.
Hughes, who has not worked at Facebook in over a decade, argues that Zuckerberg's competitive drive and quest for domination has led the company to control an estimated 80% of the world's social network revenue.
The entrepreneur says that Facebook is now a "powerful monopoly" that should be forced to reverse its acquisitions of Instagram and Whatsapp.
Hughes also says the US government should create a new agency to regulate tech companies.
"[Zuckerberg] has created a leviathan that crowds out entrepreneurship and restricts consumer choice. It's on our government to ensure that we never lose the magic of the invisible hand," Hughes writes.

There is a cure for an animal like this one. It involves lead.
HEMPSTEAD COUNTY, Ark. (CBS Local) — Officials in Arkansas issued a warning Monday about a level 3 sex offender who threatened to “rape the first woman he sees” after he’s released from custody.
John West, 38, convicted of raping a 4-year-old girl in 1996, was taken to a hospital in Little Rock last month after he was picked up for disorderly conduct.
As West was released on Monday, the sheriff’s office in Hempstead County posted a warning on its Facebook page.
“West apparently suffers from mental illness and is stable while on medication,” the post reads. “He is telling the hospital personnel that he will not stay on his medication, when he walks out of the hospital. He is also telling the hospital staff that he will rape the first woman he sees so he can come back to [Arkansas Department of Correction].
