I sincerely hope no one used the ‘S’ word...........

What happened to Perez the swearing darling of the DNC?

From CNN last April: Sh*t talking is Democrats' new strategy:


Democrats in the post-2016 world have potty mouths. Swearing has become such a part of Democratic stump speeches that profane clips have become routine in Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez's speeches. With children on stage behind him, Perez told an audience in Las Vegas this weekend that Trump "doesn't give a s**t about health care."

Perez, President Barack Obama's former labor secretary, made similar comments earlier this year.

"They call it a skinny budget, I call it a s****y budget," Perez said in Portland, Maine.

[snip]

The DNC has also followed the lead of its new chairman. Earlier this month they began selling a t-shirt that read, "Democrats give a sh*t about people."


Democrats are outraged at President Trump's language when ten months ago the DNC was fundraising with that same language?

The GOP, Especially The RINOS, The Poorly Organized GOP Candidates For Political Office, And Anti-Trump Republicans: “I can’t believe I’m losing to these guys.”

Keith Ellison is a liberal fascist of the first water. Glad to see this idjit is in the democrat ascendancy.

I predict that he will choke or alternatively be shot by one of his own.

President Trump has little to fear from these radical rubes.But he should continue to bait them and destroy them utterly.

lapsus calami :" The problem is the Clintons bought out the DNC - and the scuffling will continue
until the Clintons' fingers are pried off of it somehow. "

Speaking about being "bought out", I believe that Liz and another Freeper, pointed out that committee appointments are 'bought and paid for', and distributed by the party chair.
Where did Keith Ellison get all the money to be appointed to so many of these nationally strategic committees to which he has been named ?
I believe that it's time to :" Follow the money !! "
It's time to find the source !

A Muslim and a Mexican, now what could go wrong?

What could go wrong? They could join forces.

SOURCE WIKI-—Keith Ellison’s Campaign contributions from members of CAIR

During the 2006 election Nihad Awad, executive director of the Council on American–Islamic Relations (CAIR) and James Yee, the former Muslim chaplain at Guantanamo Bay, spoke at an August 25 fundraiser for Ellison.[119][127] Awad and Ellison knew each other as they attended the University of Minnesota Law School at the same time.[9][128] According to the Minneapolis Star Tribune, Ellison accepted individual contributions from Nihad Awad and another leader of CAIR; Ellison responded that he had fully disclosed all contributions and said that he had “nothing to hide”.[129] Ellison stressed that he was supported by individuals, and that the non-profit organization itself did not endorse his candidacy.[130]

His Republican opponent in the race, Alan Fine, criticized Ellison for accepting these contributions, saying that CAIR was “a group that Democrats say has deep ties to terrorism”.[131] In response to Ellison’s opponents, CAIR leaders Parvez Ahmed and Nihad Awad wrote, “We are proud of our personal donations to Ellison’s campaign” and derided any ‘guilt by association’ arguments.[132]

SOURCE WIKI-—Keith Ellison’s Campaign finance violations

In early 2006, the Minnesota State Campaign Finance and Public Disclosure Board[133] reprimanded Ellison for unreported campaign contributions, discrepancies in cash balances, and mis-classified disbursements during his campaigns for the Minnesota House of Representatives. These transgressions occurred in 2002–04. In 2005, the board opened an investigation, and Ellison was subpoenaed and fined.[134][135]

Ellison was repeatedly fined for late filings,was sued twice by the Attorney General of Minnesota, and was warned about absent or incomplete disclosures.

“What could go wrong? They could join forces.”

Actually, since Mexicans are Catholics, I really doubt that they will ever be buddies with the Muslims.

Most Mexicans are Catholics.

But, among the criminal class, beheading has become quite popular. It’s more Muslim... or maybe Aztec... than Catholic. And its that segment of the population that hides behind the facade of the pious hard-working immigrant.

Sanders faction = Obama faction. The Kennedys are also reportedly angry at the Clintons for attempting to sabotage Caroline Kennedy.
