Timothy Caughman was killed for being Black. He was 66.

Perhaps aiming to show instead of tell, a Missouri House Republican leader literally silenced the president of the Missouri NAACP -- as he attempted to testify against a bill that would gut protections against workplace discrimination at a public hearing on Monday night.

Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, who was into spreading alternative facts way before it was cool, claimed that he was granted White House press credentials in a video he released on Wednesday. But the White House is denying the claim, probably because they're a bunch of breastmilk-denied, fluoride-poisoned, retarded, low-grade moron, globalists.

As someone who voted for Barack Obama twice, self-identifies as a feminist and as a Bernie Bro (a label I've reclaimed), I'm having some mixed emotions about our, gulp, last president.

Happy Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. To be fair, I guess I should wish “Sorry it’s Martin Luther King, Jr. Day” to the people who don’t believe it should be a holiday and the politicians who voted against making it one. I’m talking to you, Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA), Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) Sen. John McCain (R-AZ),  Sen. Richard Shelby (R-AL), Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R-WI) Rep. Hal Rogers (R-KY), Sen. Johnny Isakson (R-GA), Rep. John Culberson (R-TX) and Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA).
