Who is LePage endorsing? David Duke?

I'd better back off or endure musket fire.

"Republican presidential nominees usually aren't bold enough to go into communities of color and take the case right to them and compete for all ears, compete for all votes," Trump's campaign manager told ABC's "Good Morning America. "They've been afraid to do that. So Mr. Trump deserves credit."

Putting aside the "credit" piece of this #$!&@, his case literally was "what the hell do you have to lose?". Strong.

Ummmm what black community did he go in to?

Less than a week before its official launch on Wednesday, Bernie Sanders’ new political group is working its way through an internal war that led to the departure of digital director Kenneth Pennington and at least four others from a team of 15, and the return of presidential campaign manager Jeff Weaver as the group’s new president.

"Those of us who resigned left because we felt the organization couldn't make good on Bernie's promise to keep the political revolution going under Jeff's leadership. As a campaign manager, Jeff was a total disaster who failed Bernie's supporters with his mismanagement," said former organizing director Claire Sandberg. "We're organizers who believed in Bernie's call for a political revolution, so we weren't interested in working for an organization that's going to raise money from billionaires to spend it all on TV."

The group's entire organizing team quit, as did much of its digital team -- the group's two pillars -- including longtime Sanders digital director Kenneth Pennington, who sparred often with Weaver on the campaign.

Several of the staffers who resigned had received personal promises from Sanders that Weaver would not be involved, and he later called several to try to get them to stay, unsuccessfully, according to multiple sources.

Weaver's elevation to manager was announced last Monday on a conference call led by Bernie and Jane Sanders, who chaired the group's board.

Weaver had already been advising Our Revolution, but Jane Sanders wanted the former lawyer to run the group after legal questions surfaced about whether its activities for candidates were pushing the boundaries of its tax status.

The group is organized as an entity known as a 501(c)4, which severely limits its involvement in elections and how much money Sanders can solicit for it, as noted in an ABC News story published later.

Cizre has often been under curfew since last July when a two-year ceasefire with the PKK collapsed, heralding a return to deadly violence.
The UN and human rights organisations have demanded an investigation into allegations that more than 100 people were burned to death while sheltering in basements in Cizre during one of those curfews.
