Turkey has re-allowed 3000 refugees from Syria to cross the border as the Kurds go on an offensive in Tal Abyad. Previously they closed down the border amid the fighting in Tal Abyad. 1.8 million refugees from Syria have gone to Turkey since 2011. Sheesh.
The growing power of the Kurds should be worrisome for Erdogan on a political level. It will be his downfall, IMO. They reached the 10% threshold to have proper representation because they finally allied under one party. This ate into Erdogan's advantage in the Assembly.

Not only Turkey. Southern Europe is dealing with all the migrants fleeing from the Middle East and Northern Africa.

The democracy act is really good legislation that republicans are going to vote against because it is bad for their reelection chances.
Can't wait till that gets voted into law as a constitutional amendment next year.

Kind of surprised that Jebya has promised an unlikely (read 'pretty much impossible') level of US economic performance if he were to be POTUS'ed, whereas the guy whose role he hopes to play in Election '16 basically promised economic results that would based on past evidence have occurred without him having so much as a pulse
Yes, but in a double utley you can put your utley on top they other guy's utley, and you're the winner. (Swish)

"Presidential candidate" Don Trump asks, presumably rhetorically, "When did we ever beat Japan?"

Trump is against wind and solar power because wind turbines were hurting views of a golf course he owns and thinks we need to double-down on oil by simply taking oil from Middle East countries as the spoils of war.
