1) The "Black cockroach ninjas" is specifically meant to apply to protesters, but perhaps more importantly...
2) Did they seriously try to use something as cool as ninjas as a fucking insult? There had better be some anti-Trump organization that calls themselves "Black Cockroach Ninjas" soon.
That's how it is with racists - you just misunderstood them, they were just being ironic, they were just joking.
They're calling black protesters "Black Cockroach Ninjas". But sure, if they called them cockroaches it would be racist, but since they added"ninjas" it's cool.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

So, Melania's memoir is out. It pretty much proves that she is just an empty shell of a person.
Out of 180 pages, 64 are photographs. Says to me that there isn't much to tell. I think we knew that.
This is one I will pass on. Not worth the eye or ear strain. Not even enough pages to start a decent fire.
MEH.

Taylor Swift $5M
Dolly Parton $1M
Ryan Reynolds $1M
Metallica $500k
$1.3k is less than what Trump spends monthly on makeup and KFC.

America on the verge of Civil Unrest as armed Trumpist Irregulars threaten federal agents helping North Carolina civilians
Quote:National Guard’s report of ‘armed militia,’ prompts the relocation of North Carolina hurricane recovery officials
Federal emergency response personnel on Saturday had employees operating in hard-hit Rutherford County, N.C., stop working and move to a different area because of concerns over “armed militia” threatening government workers in the region, according to an email sent to federal agencies helping with response in the state.
The heightening tension has resulted in residents harassing federal employees, said Riva Duncan, a former Forest Service official who lives in Asheville.
Duncan, who is also a representative with the Grassroots Wildland Firefighters, said people have been yelling at federal employees delivering aid or showing up to do repairs, saying, “We don’t want your help here.”
One Forest Service employee, she said, was pulling into a gas station when someone yelled at him to leave, saying “We don’t want the government here.”
“It’s terrible because a lot of these folks who need assistance are refusing it because they believe the stuff people are saying about FEMA and the government,” Duncan said. “And it’s sad because they are probably the ones who need the help the most.”

But if they can chase the Feds away, Trump can say "The Feds left to leave the state without aid". And if they don't leave, it will just fuel more conspiracy.
Sure, the people who believe the conspiracies may not be geniuses, but I don't think think these conspiracies are created for fun. They are done with a purpose.

If you think armed militias going after FEMA is bad, just wait until they exist in every city, in every state, and start knocking on doors then busting into homes like the gestapo looking for “illegal immigrants”.
