After Texas' 34-24 win over Alabama, a
video surfaced on social media of a group of University of Alabama
students engaging in "vile" behavior by using racist and homophobic
language against Texas players who were dancing on the sideline.
The
Austin American-Statesman, part of the USA TODAY Network, reached out
to Alabama for comments and received the following statement from the
university.
"We
are disgusted by reports of vile language and inappropriate behavior
Saturday night. To be clear, we condemn this behavior and it will not be
tolerated in our venues. It is not representative of UA or our values.
We expect all attendees to act with class and respect toward others,"
the statement said.
That
is really disgusting. Do people not know how to behave in public. A
mother of one of the player being trashed had to hear what these cretins
were shouting. That is just not right. But it goes to poor
sportsmanship and clearly the University of Alabama has some fans who
don't know how to behave at a sports event.
Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina has a theory about why people are drawing attention to the fact that he's never been married.
"It's like a different form of discrimination or bias," the 2024 GOP presidential candidate told the Washington Post. "You can't say I'm Black, because that would be terrible, so find something else that you can attack."
Scott
also said other GOP contenders may be seeking to "sow seeds of doubt"
about his campaign and finding a way to say "that guy isn't one of us"
with the insinuations about his personal life.
But
Scott, his political confidants, and his friends all insist that he's
not gay. In fact, Scott insists he has a girlfriend, though the campaign
declined to identify her to the Post.
A)
I'm not attacking you. (I'm African-American.) B) You are 57 years old. There
have been rumors for over a decade that you are gay. You have never
been married and people have every right to wonder what's going on when
you are running to be the president of the United States. There was a
whole episode of Scandal that dealt with so don't try to play the race
card and shame on anyone who lets him get away with playing that card. I
had to ask C.I. what episode that was because I couldn't find it. She
said it was "Boom Goes The Dynamite" and that's "season two, episode 15,
written by Jenna Bans." I went to Wikipedia and here's the summary of that episode:
Leaving
school after teaching, David Rosen is spooked when all the lights of
the school turn off one by one, causing him to flee.
Olivia meanwhile heads to her dinner with Jake who relocates from the restaurant to the Jefferson Memorial.
While there Olivia quizzes him on Albatross, the case that Wendy was
working on before she was murdered. Jake tells Olivia that the name
Albatross is an inside joke in the intelligence community, a mysterious
shadow figure used as a scapegoat whenever things go wrong. Olivia
abruptly leaves their date to go to her offices where the team try to
assess whether or not someone is really stalking David. The team decide
that Huck will be assigned to protect him, but not before they notice
that Huck has begun to smell and has stopped taking showers.
Meanwhile,
Jake leaves their date in order to go meet with Fitz who he knows from
their time in the navy. It is revealed that Jake has been surveying
Olivia at Fitz's personal request. He reports on her behaviour to Fitz
despite having misgivings as to why he is watching her and does not
reveal that he has been in contact with her and has taken her out on a
date.
The
gladiators start work on Will Caldwell's bid for governor of North
Carolina. Caldwell, a member of a Republican political dynasty, is
rumoured to be gay. Olivia tries to convince Will to become the first
gay governor but after Will denies that he is gay he and his family
decide to arrange a marriage for Will and the team begin scouting
successful women as potential wives. After a meeting with one of the
potential future wives goes well, Abby accosts the woman as she is
leaving the office and warns her against being in a political marriage.
Olivia is initially irritated by Abby's interference but lets it slide
after Abby reminds Olivia that her own political marriage ended with
violence and abuse.
The
hostage situation intensifies with Fitz feeling his hands are tied
since there is a mole in his administration. After the terrorists
holding the soldiers send in a tape of them murdering one of them to
U.S. news networks, Cyrus suggests to Mellie that Fitz needs to send
drones to Kashfar as a show of strength. Despite Mellie telling Cyrus
that she will credit him with the suggestion she takes full credit for
the idea herself.
David goes back to work under the assumption that Huck is protecting him. However a rainstorm triggers memories of Huck's waterboarding,
causing him to become immobile and have a panic attack. David is left
to fend for himself and confronts his stalker who turns out to be Molly,
Wendy's roommate who believes that David is innocent and that Wendy was
murdered after a fight she had with a man who threatened her after
learning about the intelligence she had.
The
Caldwells struggle with their choice of a runner-up but are impressed
when they meet her. Olivia learns that Fitz will be present at the
fundraiser dinner where the Caldwells plan to introduce the new arranged
fiancé. Olivia goes to Cyrus wanting to know why he didn't warn her
about Fitz being at her work event and he reveals that he's been
completely cut out of Fitz's circle and usurped by Mellie. Olivia tells
him to simply wait for Mellie to overstep her bounds.
The
parents of the soldiers grow angry at Fitz and his administration
believing that the bombings on Kashfar are endangering their children.
Mellie decides to speak to them privately about the situation and Cyrus
leaks the story. After discovering what Mellie has done Fitz begins to
freeze her out while bringing Cyrus back into the fold.
Right
before Olivia heads out to dinner she receives a call from Harrison
that the story about the Caldwells' auditioning wives has been leaked.
Harrison manages to shut the story down and Olivia realizes that the
information was leaked by Marion Caldwell, Will's sister-in-law, and the
two have been having an affair. Olivia urges Will to end the affair and
put his career first. Later, Will's older brother Peter reveals he's
known about the affair all along but has refused to confront Will as he
didn't want Will to fight to be with Marion and jeopardize his career.
Huck
is finally able to decrypt Wendy's flash drive and brings the
information to Olivia. They find the names and information of the
Kashfar hostages and realize that Albatross is the one who leaked their
names to the terrorists. When they show Molly video images of the man
who they think attacked Wendy, she instead identifies CIA director
Osbourne, whose image happened to be playing on the TV at that exact
moment.
That was 2013. And it was a
character wanting to become governor. It's now ten years later and Tim
wants to be the president. There's nothing wrong with people asking why
he's never been married. And that has nothing to do with race --
unless he wants to try to call Shonda Rhimes "racist"?
Here's Paul Rudnick on our two likely closeted senators -- Lindsey Graham and Tim.
Here's C.I.'s "Iraq snapshot:"
Tuesday, September 11, 2023. Freaks and fools, the world's full of them
and we look at three: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Zac and Gavin of THE
VANGUARD.
We've got a lot to cover. We're
starting with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. He appeared yesterday on Neil
Cavuto's FOX "NEWS" talk show.
Junior
declared, "The Iraq War? You know, we left Iraq worse off than when we
found it. We were lied to about that war. We're now going to war in
Ukraine -- a war, a war that could be catastrophic for the globe."
Wow, the bravery. Wow, the inability to master the facts.
"We left Iraq worse off than when we found it"? When did "we" leave Iraq?
Or is Junior so stupid that he doesn't know US troops remain on the ground in Iraq?
Iraq and
the US-led international coalition formed to fight ISIS in 2014 are to
meet in the coming days to discuss what their co-operation will look
like in the future, Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al Sudani said on
Monday.
Early last month, Iraq sent a high-ranking security delegation
to Washington led by Minister of Defence Thabet Al Abbasi to meet US
Secretary of Defence Lloyd Austin and other officials for the inaugural
US-Iraq Joint Security Co-operation Dialogue.
The two sides discussed the security co-operation in different fields and the continuing fight against ISIS remnants.
They
agreed to form a joint committee to "determine the future relation
between Iraq and the member states of the international coalition", Mr
Al Sudani told local media outlets on Monday.
A convoy belonging to the US-led coalition has reportedly
transferred military equipment, ammunition and fuel from American bases
in Iraq to neighboring Syria.
Citing unnamed sources, Lebanon’s al-Mayadeen news channel reported
that the convoy had entered eastern Syria through the Faysh
Khabur border crossing in Iraq’s semi-autonomous Kurdistan Region on
Monday night.
The US military has in recent months ramped up its military presence
in Syria, a country gripped by a foreign-backed militancy since 2011
which has repeatedly denounced the deployment as “illegal”.
Last month, the Pentagon sent a convoy to the bases in eastern
Syria’s Deir ez-Zor province through the Al-Waleed border crossing
between Iraq and Syria.
Comprised of around 50 vehicles, the convoy reached US bases in the Koniko natural gas field and al-Omer oil field on August 14.
When, Junior, did US troops leave Iraq?
What an idiot.
And, no, we're not "now going to war with Ukraine." The proxy war has been going on for some time.
Later,
while babbling -- that is the only term -- about 9/11, he said, "My
memory of that, Neil -- and you can go back and check the record [. . .
], and I could be wrong about that [. . .] and I could be wrong about my
history." You think?
Not could, you are wrong when you say that we are "now going to war with Ukraine" and when you say that the US left Iraq.
He
speaks of an "aggressive posture" on the part of the US today with "800
bases abroad" and insists, "When I was a kid, everybody around the
world loved America for its freedoms."
When was
he a "kid"? I'm going to assume we'll leave out the struggles with
drug addiction. But let's say 21, he stopped being a kid? I'd love to
do 18 but the press usually doesn't hold you accountable -- look at
Bully Boy Bush's 'youthful' issues -- when you turn 18. So let's go to
21. That would be 1975.
Before 1975,
"everybody around the world loved America for its freedoms"? Really?
The people in Vietnam loved America for its freedoms? Despite the war
on Vietnam? The people in Cuba loved America for its freedoms? Despite
the Bay of Pigs? The people in Chile loved America for its freedoms?
Despite the CIA overthrow and execution of the democratically elected
Salvador Allende on September 11, 1973?
We could do this all day.
He
is a stupid moron. Most of Europe was anti-American following the
Revolutionary War (and most of Europe did not see the French Revolution
as a great thing because Europe was not a proponents of democracy).
America was not seen as a great thing among many European scholars in
the 1800s either.
You don't know your history,
Junior. You just know that when all you were concerned with was playing
with your toys and your penis, life seemed so much simpler.
Your stupidity at this late date is rather sad and rather telling.
We've got to look at e-mails. Two people have e-mailed the public account accusing me of hypocrisy -- they've read "
Media: Hypocrisy, thy name is THE VANGUARD"
and they both feel that I am also being a hypocrite -- like THE
VANGUARD -- because I've not weighed in on the Danny Masterson rape and
"more significantly," writes one, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis'
remarks.
First, how does that make me like
THE VANGUARD? If I were defending Ashton and Mila -- it would not
happen -- maybe I would be like THE VANGUARD. But I just didn't say
anything about it here Friday and Monday.
Christina
Ricci did and that's a friend and I stand by what she said about the
issue. I do not like Bijou and I think she's trash -- that's rapist
Danny Masterson's wife. I thought she was trash from a young age.
Couldn't help it though, look at who her parents were.
Late to the party? Danny Masterson raped women and got convicted of drugging and raping two. Last week was his sentencing.
Ashton
and Mila wrote letters to the judge insisting he was a good guy and his
sentence for his crimes shouldn't be harsh, he told them not to take
drugs and he's a good father.
Billy Baldwin
apparently wrote a letter. If I was waiting for anything, it was
probably to read that letter. That he wrote it doesn't surprise me,
he's Danny's brother-in-law. Chynna Phillips and Bijoua are
half-sisters -- Mackenzie Phillips is their other half-sister. Of the
three, Chynna's been the most sane in her own life and that goes to what
happens when you have even one solid parent (Michelle Phillips).
I
keep waiting to hear that Chynna wrote a letter. If she did and it
emerges, that doesn't surprise me. She's always been there for her two
half-sisters. Bijou has made her adulthood a nightmare (her childhood
was an embarrassment but that's on her parents) and Mackenzie, of
course, aborted a pregnancy in which her father might have been the
father. I'm not condemning Mackenzie, she had a very rough childhood
and she was a victim (and, yes, I do consider her a victim even during
the time she says she was 'willingly' sleeping with her own father).
When Mackenzie came out with that story, I backed her and defended her.
My point in bringing all this up is to make clear that I believe no one
should have written a letter but if it turns out Chynna did, then she
did and I'm not going to have any comment on it because she's been the
glue holding that fractured family (I'm referring to the John Phillips
side of the family) together for years now, she's had to repeatedly be
the adult in the room for both of her half-sisters.
Ashton and Mila?
Trash. I've called out Mila repeatedly here. The idea that I'm hesitant to call that fake ass out?
When
Demi (a friend of many years) had her book coming out, Mila began
showing her true ugly self in public with a few remarks. Those remarks
were probably going to get worse. Which is why I called Ashton and told
him to curb his bitch because I'm not Demi. Demi tried to be as kind
as possible and put as much behind her as possible.
I'm not that sweet person.
I
made it very clear -- and I wrote about that here too when it happened
-- that if Mila didn't cease and desist, I'd burn Ashton and Mila's
playhouse down. And I could still do that because they are nothing but
liars. Their entire relationship is a lie. Their actions offscreen? A
huge lie.
Demi gave into Ashton on many
things. He's a control freak who manipulates women. "Oh, you could
drink if you want to, you're just using 'addiction' as a crutch."
That
we're now shocked by Ashton goes to how pathetic celebrity is. Demi
told that tale in her book, where were you? It's one of the few that
made it into the book. Her 80s addictions were well known. And Joel
Schumacher made it very clear that she go rehab or she wasn't going to
be in ST. ELMO'S FIRE. She went to rehab, she got the treatment she
needed and she became this huge support system for many others (such as
Ally Sheedy). For Ashton to undermine her and to destroy her sobriety?
Where were you, concerned America?
He's
garbage. And the reason they broke up makes even more garbage. If you
think he pressured her to drink -- he did. That's nothing compared to
the pressure he was putting on her to do other things. And she had the
strength to walk away. And she had the grace to leave it out of her
book.
So your notion that because nothing went
up here about those two disgusting people since Friday afternoon when
the news broke about their letters because I was/would try to cover for
them?
No, you're just outright wrong.
In terms of their video?
They're
lying garbage. And don't say that you respect victims -- as they lie
that they do -- and then lie that you weren't trying to influence the
outcome.
Sentencing is part of the outcome.
Quit your lying. Sentencing is part of the outcome. You disrespected
the women who were raped. You tried to work over a sentencing after a
jury handed down guilty verdicts. You were clearly disrespecting the
women and disrespecting the rule of law.
Everything they wrote was a lie. Everything that they said was a lie.
And to bring up drugs, to lie that Danny kept them off drugs? When Danny drugged the women he raped?
That's especially offensive.
Rebecca is covering this at her site.
If you missed it, yesterday on THE VANGUARD, they were floating that Peter Daou might have been fired by Marianne Williamson.
No one has ever made that claim before now.
Peter
quit. And I know why he quit and I knew in real time and you can go
back to the archives and read about it. I also know Marianne and have
for years. And Ava and I told you -- before POLITICO wrote its first
story on what a nightmare she was to her staff -- how bad she was. We
told you. Then the first POLITICO story comes out about it and THE
VANGUARD and others -- including Krystal Ball -- want to trash the
report and insist it's not true. They attacked the second report as
well although less strenuously. Marianne is a nightmare to work for.
Peter quit for that reason.
He
had no plans to make a statement and when Marianne worried how it was
looking, he came out with the claim that he quit due to his family's
health.
Now he's gone to work for Cornel West's campaign.
What happened should be obvious.
But because THE VANGUARD boys worship Marianne, they wanted to muddy the waters last night.
They also never understand a damn thing.
They are like Junior so much.
He didn't notice anti-American sentiment prior to his becoming an adult so he insists it never happened.
They
attacked Peter in their segment without understanding a damn thing and
only knowing what he did in 2016 -- when they were supporting the freak
show that is Jill Stein.
Peter isn't someone we highlighted after 2008 here.
We also didn't make a point to call him out after 2008.
For the same reason that I'm not going to call out Rickie Lee Jones or Meredith Brooks or any number of people.
You don't like what Peter wrote in 2016?
Well why did he write it?
Or is that too much work for you to do?
Rickie
Lee gets a pass from me. She supported Hillary Clinton in 2008. And
she saw the media work to destroy Hillary. Peter supported Hillary in
2008.
You're crazy and insane if you don't think what the media did to Hillary was going to impact her supporters.
2008
saw the media attack her repeatedly with sexism. When Katie Couric
dared to note the sexism, Keith Olbermann attacked Katie as the worst
person of the week.
They all engaged in sexism -- Keith, Bill Moyers, go down the list. And Howard Dean played dumb as late as June 2008.
Just because you didn't live through it, doesn't mean it didn't happen.
Hillary
was mocked and made fun and lied about. At its worst, Marjorie Cohn
and Keith Olbermann and others were accusing Hillary of calling for
Barack Obama to be assassinated -- Keith went on air with that claim.
It
was stupid for Hillary to run in 2016 for many reasons -- but the main
ones were the media had painted her as a racist and the media had
painted her as someone so desperate that she'd call for Barack to be
assassinated.
This was what the media was telling America eight years before her 2016 run.
That's a lot to overcome with the public and, no, she did not have the charm skills to pull that off.
But
they were very upset, her supporters, by the media's inability to play
fair (something Donald Trump supporters can probably relate to). So I
never made a point to call out Rickie Lee or anyone else who had to
endure that crap in 2008.
That's not even a
full history but it's more knowledge than THE VANGUARD boys can produce
because they're idiots who never do the work required.
James H. Cone.
That's
a name that the idiots need to learn. They're crediting Cornel West
with inventing every wheel in history. James H. Cone, idiots, look him
up. W.E.B. Du Bois, learn the name.
The world did not start in 2016 just because that's when THE VANGUARD boys began paying attention.
And
Jimmy Dore is many bad things but that doesn't excuse Zac, on THE
VANGUARD last week, using "snatch" as a smear -- "snatch" not as in
swipe but as in the female anatomy.
That's misogyny. And Zac did and Gavin laughed at it. And then they moved on pretended like it hadn't happened.
Don't compare to those two morons.
They
can't get their facts right, they don't know history, their political
'arguments' are laughable and they're just as likely to resort to sexism
or to dismiss concerns about trans people as Jimmy Dore is.
THE
VANGUARD had another questionable segment last week. It was about how
Briahna Joy Gray had invited Sabby Sabs on to BAD FAITH and Sabby had
lied.
Well what else would Sabby do?
Hey, Sabby, tell us about your parents? You don't want to go there, do
you?
So Sabby was on with Bri-Bri and Bri-Bri lied. And THE VANGUARD called her out and congratulated themselves for doing so.
But the cowardly boys of THE VANGUARD lied for Bri-Bri
Months
ago, a ridiculous exchange took place on REVOLUTIONARY BLACK OUT.
Sabby and the fat one had brought on Marianne Williamson and then,
during the interview, the RBO homophobe and the one who rages out of
control to the point that he's
on the verge of tears joined the broadcast. Marianne was not being
allowed to speak. She was asked questions and when she tried to answer
them, she was cut off.
It was an awful interview.
And
Zac and Gavin, last week, called Sabby Sabs out as she tossed aside
facts and flat out lied over and over about what had happened. Zac and Gavin played segments of the
interview that had not been played on BAD FAITH including Sabby
herself expressing her anger and frustration over the way Marianne was ambushed.
Last
week, on BAD FAITH, Sabby lied and said that things went bad because
Marianne had accused one of the RBN males of "mansplaining."
Zac
and Gavin played the clip of that and showed that Marianne was being
cut off by the man when she tried to answer his question, she was being
insulted by him and much more.
Now go check in real
time, we didn't make this RBN interview the big issue of the year, the month or even the
week. Why? Because politicians don't need to be fawned over. See,
we're consistent.
The boys of THE VANGUARD? If they didn't have hypocrisy, what would those boys have besides maybe crotch rot?
They went to town on Sabby. And she deserved it. She lied. She flat out lied.
But
the hypocrites of THE VANGUARD didn't go to town on Bri-Bri. They
didn't even try to hold her accountable. This wasn't Sabby's program,
it was Bri's. Sabby was on Bri's BAD FAITH.
The
hypocrites know damn well that Sabby didn't select clips for Bri's
show. Bri and her staff selected the clips they wanted to play. Bri
was complicit in the lying. She took part in it before it ever aired as
she determined what clips would air on her show and what clips
wouldn't.
Bri lied. But THE VANGUARD gave her a pass
-- that's something they do repeatedly for her and it's why they look
like such hypocrites.
The
airing of that segment on THE VANGUARD -- and the pass that they gave
Bri -- should have led to reflection on Zac and Gavin's part but clearly
they are not capable of self-reflection and that is one thing that
makes them so dangerous. Read the quote we provide of Zac at the end of
our piece and you'll grasp the other reason that they're becoming so
dangerous. That's not what media does.
