Roseanne Barr stunned Hollywood Thursday by endorsing Donald Trump for president. Rosie is a partner in a chain of twenty marijuana stores that just opened up in Orange County. This may hurt business because the overwhelming number of her pot customers are supporting McGovern.
Hillary Clinton was endorsed by President Obama Thursday right after he tried to ease Bernie out of the race. It was all very well-timed. That afternoon, Senator Elizabeth Warren launched a savage attack on Trump, although you couldn't put it that way if Warren were really an Indian.
Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton was reported Friday to be considering Senator Elizabeth Warren to be her vice presidential running mate. It would be confusing if they get elected to office. When the Marine Band plays Hail to the Chief at state dinners they'll both wave in acknowledgement.
The FBI identified the Orlando gay bar shooter as an American citizen with ISIS ties and son of immigrants to this country from Afghanistan. All these terrorist shootings prove once and for all that we can't allow the Syrian refugees to enter the United States. It's just too dangerous for them.
Hillary Clinton in a national speech Monday singled out the oil kingdoms of Saudi Arabia and Qatar and Kuwait and ripped them for allowing terrorist attacks against the West to be supported from their countries. This can only mean one thing. Their checks to the Clinton Foundation bounced.
The FBI said Monday it had detained Orlando terrorist Omar Mateen over his radical posts on social media. His dad is a Taliban champion, Omar traveled to Saudi Arabia twice, and he bragged to co-workers about having ISIS ties. There are fewer red flags in Moscow at the Victory Day Parade.
Santa Monica hosted a multi-cultural street fair to try to promote peace between religions and cultures last weekend. A Muslim street vendor had the entire Koran downloaded onto one DVD. Impressed, an Iowa tourist asked the guy if he'd burn him a copy, and that's when the trouble started.
President Obama defended how he describes terrorism Tuesday, saying if he says radical Islam it will put an entire religion under criminal suspicion in the eyes of Americans. It was a stirring defense. He concluded by reminding the American people that if the glove doesn't fit, you must acquit.
House Democrats walked out on a moment of silence for the Orlando victims because House Republicans refuse to consider a gun ban and insist on tightening immigration, which Democrats oppose. Congress's approval rating is nine percent. To put that in perspective, Cosby's at ten percent.
Donald Trump ripped Barack Obama for going easy on Islamic terrorism Tuesday. They hate each other. President Obama responded to the alligator child-snatching tragedy at Disneyworld by pointing out that Trump sells golf shirts with little alligators on them in every one of his pro shops.
Donald Trump ripped Hillary Clinton for taking Clinton Foundation donations from Muslim countries that enslave women. They're strict. If you're watching movies in a Saudi hotel room, Thelma and Louise only lasts eight minutes because they cut all the scenes where women are driving.
The National Football League issued a new rule covering the coin flips that occur before each and every NFL football game. They said from now on, the coin must visibly turn over in the air. It was getting weird this past year, when every time the referees tossed the coin, Hillary Clinton won.
Hillary Clinton took the unquestioned Democratic nominee title after she won the Washington, D.C. primary. Now it's being debated what to call her. Democrats want to call her Hillary Rodham Clinton, Independents like to say Hillary Clinton and to Republicans she'll always be Lady Voldemort.

Donald Trump celebrated his 70th birthday today. And I guess instead of blowing out his candles, he just insulted them until they put themselves out. "You're too hot! You smell like wax! You're the worst part of this cake!"
According to the Social Security Administration, the most popular baby names in 2016 are Noah and Emma. Least popular baby names? Donald and Hillary.
According to a political science professor, all of Donald Trump's speeches are given at a fifth-grade level or below. And today Trump said the professor who did the study was a doody head.

The latest polls show Hillary Clinton now leads Donald Trump by 12 points nationally. I guess she's getting some traction from her new slogan, "Come with me, if you want to live."

Donald Trump has called for a ban on all immigration to the United States. Of course, Trump said the ban would be lifted if he ever needs a new wife.
Bernie Sanders is set to meet with Hillary Clinton this evening. Bernie said the meeting will give Hillary one last opportunity to bow out gracefully.
I posted the following on my FB page this morning, along with this toon...
Did anyone else notice this curious behavior? Omar Mateen called 911 *three times* during his murderous Orlando rampage, each time pledging his allegiance to ISIS. Curiously, just this morning I listened to NECN anchor Jeff Saperstone insult my intelligence by stating that "a motive for the Orlando attack had not yet been determined." Really Jeff??? You don't say!!! Omar Mateen must have known that they would quickly act to blunt his ISIS-inspired motives. Why else would he have called 911 three times to clearly state a motive? [the President essentially called Mateen a liar by blaming guns] I think Mateen knew this is how they operate. That's why ISIS told him it was necessary to declare his motives. They knew the _________[insert your own label here] would try to shift the blame and that's why he called 911. In order to determine true motive, one has to ask if Mateen hadn't been able to acquire those guns, would he have done the deed by resorting to another method? I say yes. Mateen was so hate-filled and saturated with the ISIS anti-gay message that he would have found another way.

You're welcome, TM! But ISIS doesn't exist according to 0bama...since he calls them ISIL...
