The Never Ending Search To Disgrace Hillary

Paper Ballots Please!!!!
...According to the FBI, as many as 39 states had their election systems scanned or targeted by Russia. There's no evidence of votes changed. But given the stakes, some state agencies that run elections are trying to curb any further interference prior to mid-term elections in November.

I'd rather listen to the screech of the emergency broadcast system on continuous loop than hear 10 seconds of Melania's UN speech. - Jake Vig Tweet

Republicans Peddle Nonsense to Sell Health-Care Plan

Trump just threatened to exterminate a nation of 25 million people but don't worry, our pundits have roundly condemned Antifa violence. - Heet Jeer tweet

I Am Surprised Trump Hasn't Pardoned Everyone! Sad!
Former Donald Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort offered to give “private briefings” on the status of the election to a Russian billionaire with ties to the Kremlin.

The most embarrassing thing about Trump at the UN is not that he's some weird fluke, it's that he's such an accurate representation of what many in the world already thought of the USA. - Andy Borowitz

While at the U.N., President Trump also called the Iran nuclear deal an "embarrassment." Then Trump said, "Gotta go — I have to post a tweet of me hitting a woman with a golf ball."- Conan O'Brien

Clash with the background much?

Melania Condemns Bullying At United Nations While Wearing "Not Pretty In Pink"
First Lady Melania Trump delivered a speech at the United Nations condemning bullying — and many internet users could not help but call her out for hypocrisy.
Given that her husband is one of the most notorious cyberbullies on the internet, several Twitter users pointed out that Melania should have at least acknowledged the role that President Donald Trump has played in bullying other people, ranging from disabled reporters to Gold Star families.

It's no secret Donald Trump has never liked the U.N. Back in 2012, he tweeted "The cheap 12-inch square marble tiles behind speaker at U.N. always bothered me. I will replace with beautiful large marble slabs, if they ask me." They're not going to ask you. You know what they talk about at the U.N., right? They're going to ask you to send soldiers to Uganda, not sconces to the lobby.- Stephen Colbert

Hate crimes have jumped by nearly 20 percent in major U.S. cities through much of this year, after increasing nationally by 5 percent last year, according to police data compiled by the Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism at California State University at San Bernardino.

So Trump goes one way, then he abruptly goes the other way, then swoops around in a completely different direction for no apparent reason. Which is also what he tells the guy cutting his hair.- James Corden

Florida Has Gone To Hell In A Handbasket
Florida Power and Light's grid did not fare well under Hurricane Irma, despite the company's assurances that it had spent billions hardening its systems after 90% of its customers lost power to 2005's Hurricane Wilma.
But one thing has changed since 2005: solar. Many of the FPL customers who are living through dangerous heat without power now have solar panels on their roofs that could keep them going while FPL repairs its infrastructure. Except doing so is illegal, thanks to FPL's lobbyists, who literally ghost-wrote much of Florida's dreadful solar rules.
