Roseanne Barr Implies Her Racist Tweet Was Caused By Ambien

Roseanne Barr Implies Her Racist Tweet Was Caused By Ambien
ICYMI: Roseanne Barr created a total sh*tstorm earlier this week after tweeting racist remarks about Valerie Jarrett, a black woman who formerly served as a senior adviser to President Barack Obama. Her show Roseanne was canceled by ABC hours later, and many people—including her costars—immediately condemned her.
Not long after, Roseanne implied that Ambien was to blame for her original comments...

Given that a TV star was fired for racist tweets one week after a New York billionaire was led away in handcuffs for sexual assault, it’s understandable if Trump is on edge right now.- Andy Borowitz

Republican Says There Is No Spygate
Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-South Carolina, says that the FBI has an "obligation" to run out any leads it may have -- including using informants -- to get to the bottom of the case of Russian interference in the 2016 campaign. 


Roseanne’s network wanted to showcase the average Trump voter. And that’s exactly what they got.- Molly Knight

Matthew Pottinger must have been surprised to learn that he doesn’t exist.

The Trumps are not only cruel but they're "rub salt in the wound" cruel

Donald Trump Jr. is also getting blowback — just like Ivanka — for posting a photo with his kids
Hours after his younger sister Ivanka posted a much-derided photo with her son, Donald Trump Jr. is catching heat for also sharing a photo of him posing with two of his kids. The comments were calling to his attention the scary plight of the children whom immigration officials have separated from their families at the border.


How can you not love Ivanka - from her fake little nose, her bleached blonde hair, her green colored contact lenses to her Asian sweatshops, her campaigning for Devin Nunes and her ability to be Jewish and a Nazi at the very same time. - TheCenteredEgg tweet

If Mary and Joseph crossed the US border today, Jesus would be ripped from her arms and placed “where ever”. #WhereAreTheChidren - irishygirl tweet

Dear US Media;  if you can spell things like:
“Plays loosely with facts”
"Demonstrable falsehoods"
"Mendacity"
"Incessant dishonesty"
"Prevarication"
"Untruths"
"Misinformation"
"Fabrications"
Or "whoppers"

Then you're able to spell the word “lies.” - John Fugelsang


Media, Media, Media!!
President Donald Trump on Tuesday accused the entire U.S. mainstream media of running a “highly sophisticated Disinformation Campaign” to undermine his 2016 campaign and his presidency.
In a tweet on Tuesday, Trump said it was the media, and not Russia, that had conducted a campaign of “disinformation” during the 2016 election.





Curiously the "He'll be happy, he'll be rich" guarantee Trump just offered Kim Jong Un was the same promise extended to enrollees at Trump University. - David Frum






Where Is Melania Trump?
It might sound like a computer simulation of an '80s TV movie gone awry, but for two weeks the biggest question in Washington has been: Where has the first lady gone?
Melania Trump has not been seen in public since May 10, the day before she began a six-day stay at Walter Reed Military Hospital for what her office called a "procedure" for a "benign kidney condition." Second lady Karen Pence has filled in for her at some events, and today she was absent from the president's side when he spoke at Arlington National Cemetery for Memorial Day.

When the Access Hollywood tape of Donald Trump emerged in the home stretch of the 2016 election, it should have been a gift from the tabloid gods for TMZ.
Instead, the celebrity gossip website went into overdrive to help Trump.





The good news: 8,000 Starbucks stores shut today for anti-bias trainingThe bad news:  When Caucasians start to riot because no access to soy lattes. - John Fugelsang
