    Obviously the Church was a front for terrorist or BLM activities and the Klan is a patriotic 2nd Amendment organization targeted by left wing socialists. All republicans knows this.

    Soft on crime = being fair to minorities in the legal process, not just rich white folk.

    This mess in Virginia, with voters "accidentally" reassigned to different districts, is turning into a real humdinger:

    With uncanny twists and an allegedly rogue registrar, Virginia House left in limbo

    tl;dr:

    -- Originally, 83 voters were moved out of a district that the Republican "won" by 82 votes.
    -- Turns out, it wasn't 83 voters, it was almost 400 who were mistakenly assigned, 147 of whom cast votes.
    -- This all seemingly started on one street, where, for some reason, the even-number houses were assigned to one district and the odd-number houses to another.
    -- The two districts each had a candidate with the same last name, but different party affiliation.
    -- The person responsible, the Fredericksburg registrar, died seven months ago.
    -- Without these two districts certified, the balance of power in the House of Delegates is 49-49.
    -- If the results get certified and the loser challenges, it will be decided by a vote in that same House of Delegates, in which Republicans hold a 32-seat advantage until the new House is seated.

    Aren’t all of these tweets going to come in handy when AT&T and Time Warner defend their merger?

    Winner to receive the FAKE NEWS TROPHY!

    Is this eligible for best one liners ever posted on SJ.com, or must it be an original line?

    What's most certainly not fake: Trump called neo-Nazis "very fine people."

    Here's a good story on Dan Rather that doesn't reduce an 85-year-old man's entire life and career to a single incident but does include said incident:

    Forgive me if this is a D_B, a quick search didn't turn this up. FCC Commissioner Jessica Rosenworcel wrote an OpEd for the LA Times a few days ago regarding net neutrality, saying "It’s a lousy idea. And it deserves a heated response from the millions of Americans who work and create online every day."

    I'm on the FCC. Please stop us from killing net neutrality

    Fox being ineligible for the Fake News Trophy is a BCS-level fuckup.
