It's fun that this old story was dug up as a response to Trump's comments about confederate statues. It's really amazing how everything he does/says is hypocritical.

Alabama's attorney general sued the city of Birmingham for covering a confederate statue.

Battlefield museums, sure. Courthouses and public squares, no.

Gettysburg agrees with you.

As do I. I think there's a difference between those erected on an historical site and those we've placed in a conspicuous place of honor in the most public spaces of our towns.

Heather Heyer's mother...

In the exclusive interview, Bro said that the White House has reached out to her several times since her daughter’s death, but that she hasn’t had a chance to speak to President Trump.

“I saw that his office had called about three times,” she said. “It feels awful, but I just haven’t had time to talk to the president.”

There's now a twitter account that set up a program to basically retweet everything that Donald Trump would see on his own feed

"Black power" spray painted on the rizzo statue.

Sen. Corker (R - TN) openly questioning drumpf's "stability" & "competence" . While pointing out drumpf's disgusting racism is great, Corker's are 25th amendment-type words.

Lots of confusion in Spain. Man identified as terror suspect earlier may have been a victim of having his id documents stolen. Five suspects killed in Cambrils, but not before injuring at least seven with another auto attack. They were e wearing explosive vest. Man shot by police after running checkpoint and injuring two officers, but apparently he was unrelated to the attacks..
