Exactly.

You think a muthafucca gonna publish a book like that w/o having proof in case there were doubts?

He's giving them just enough rope to hang themselves. B/c I would not be surprised if he has an audio recording
 
They're definitely white and considered white but I think white people see them as a different kind of white

Good looking out. It wasn't the first time I've seen some shit like that. It was just always weird to me how they try make it seem some times.

Jews can be white, black and in between. The Euro Jews are white and a great majority in Israel are white. Bernie Sanders is Jewish if I remember right.
 
Atlanta Mayor Bottoms puts city’s finances online for public inspection


For the first time in the City of Atlanta’s history, the public can now review individual city expenses on the internet.

Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms at a press conference on Tuesday unveiled her “Open Checkbook” — an online portal for the tracking of individual city expenditures.

The public can now search for payments by vendor, department and time period from January 2017 through June of this year. The mayor said that the portal would be updated quarterly and that her administration would put other prior years’ expenses online as well.

Bottoms acknowledged that the announcement about the portal occurred during an uptick of activity in a federal corruption investigation at City Hall.

Last month, Bottoms’ former Deputy Chief of Staff Katrina Taylor Parks — a holdover from the previous administration of Kasim Reed — pleaded guilty in federal court to accepting a bribe.

But Bottoms said the timing of the press conference had nothing to do with the investigation.

During her campaign for mayor last year, Bottoms said she heard from many people who were interested in a more transparent government.

“This is something that was talked about very early on in the administration,” Bottoms said.

GOP Hopes To Use Football To Spike Blue Wave, Swing Voters To The Right

Guided by their boss’s incessant odium toward kneeling football players, Republicans are increasingly seizing on the sport and NFL athletes’ protests of police brutality as a last-ditch effort to sling mud at Democrats as they fight to maintain control of the House.

Seen most pointedly in the Senate race between Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Democratic candidate Beto O’Rourke, Republicans have amplified the talking point in recent weeks and, as Buzzfeed notes, it is quickly being embraced by GOPers who are facing tough Democratic challengers in districts that President Donald Trump won.

After O’Rourke asserted last month that there was “nothing more American” than NFL players using their First Amendment right to demonstrate during the playing of the national anthem, Cruz sunk his teeth in. Releasing a video of a veteran who lost both legs in Vietnam, the Cruz campaign attacked O’Rourke as unpatriotic, asking “in November, where will you stand?”

Other at-risk Republicans are taking note of the peculiar line of attack, as Trump’s swipes at the “hard to watch” NFL and the now-Colin Kaepernick aligned Nike athletics company, escalate.

Republicans hope the move will push Democrats to choose between two sides: Should they stand with kneeling athletes who are exercising their freedom of speech and protesting police brutality and racism or avoid the issue all together in order to not risk estranging undecided voters in Trump country?
