Hillary Clinton delivered the first important speech of the 2016 presidential campaign in New York on Wednesday, kicking off what she pledged would be an honest conversation about race and justice in America, and, beyond that, a period of meaningful reform.

Someone needs to make a high-quality graphic of Hillary with a shoe in her mouth. Or a gif of her eating a shoe.

When did the Daily News become crap? I haven’t read it in maybe 20 years.

Highest homicide rates AND highest police shooting rates. But reality never matters to leftists.

Hillary Clinton has only one right—to shut her lying criminal mouth and do the perp walk. Enough already. Shut up, woman! Have you no shame? Be gone!

Dinkins was an incompetent racist idiot.

He was well on the way to turning New York into another black run disaster like Detroit, Baltimore and so many more American cities.

During the Molen Commission hearings on police corruption there was testimony from one police officer which said “the cover up goes to the top”.

The top was Lee Brown and David Dinkins, 2 black democrats.

Entire precincts were nothing but corruption and democrats were covering it up.
