    The story of Dennis Hof's death has some familiar names.


    Dennis Hof is dead at 72. The brothel owner turned republican conservative (lmao) was found dead by no other than Ron Jeremy.

    They said it was quite a party lol. I wonder how many lines of coke was done... this is a kidiot candidate.

    He'll still win the election even though he's DEAD lol. Yeah. Ridiculous. Maybe republicans can do a weekend at bernies.

        She was smart enough to get into Harvard. No one lied.
        She wrote on her Harvard application that she was a person of color. That's why I asked if you believed that 1/1024th was sufficient.

        Maybe trump should bring his university back.

          So busing in black senior citizens their appointed voting center is now an unacceptable, heinous and illegal political activity.
          Georgia County Orders Elderly Black Voters Off Bus Taking Them To The Polls

          “We knew it was an intimidation tactic,” Black Voters Matter co-founder LaTosha Brown said.

          Dozens of black senior citizens in rural Georgia were ordered off a bus bound for the polls after county officials said the event constituted prohibited “political activity.”

          A Jefferson County clerk reportedly told staff members from the Leisure Center in Louisville on Monday ― the first day of in-person early voting in Georgia ― that roughly 40 black people couldn’t take part in the trip after receiving a complaint from an unnamed caller.

          The trip had been organized by the nonpartisan Black Voters Matter, which is embarking on a bus tour across several southern states with the goal of urging black people to vote. The caller said the bus, which was painted with the words “The South is Rising Tour,” should not be allowed to bring people to the polls, reported The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

            No she didn’t. She didn’t even apply to Harvard, she was recruited. She had listed herself as Native American in a law directory. (I don’t think she should have.) It was well after she was first hired (then left, then was recruited again) that anyone at Harvard found out about her family story.

              I misworded what I originally said as noted by Aeson. She was offered and recruited, but never actually put it on her application.

              She didn't list that. You are lying.

              You have no degree. Stop lying. We already went through this in the past. And shall I bring up my academic background? You really don't want to go there. So an androgynous make up wearing emo is smarter than you... That must ****ing burn.

              It must ****ing suck to realize I am more intelligent in comparison to you. I know you hate me and hate my style. I bet you even hate my existence. The sad reality for you is I'm always several steps ahead of you.

              If you really want to get into a pissing match over degrees, which of mine do you want to learn about?

                The grandmother of a 20-month-old girl has been charged with murder after the child was found stabbed and burned inside the oven of a Mississippi home.

                Carolyn Jones, 48, has been charged with first-degree murder in the death of Royalty Marie Floyd in the town of Shaw.

                Authorities are waiting on an autopsy from the state crime lab in the city of Pearl to determine whether the child had died been burnt to death, or whether she had died from stab wounds.

                  The Secret Service says it is investigating an incident in which an agent blocked a CBS News correspondent from questioning White House senior adviser Jared Kushner aboard a plane.

                  CBS News correspondent Errol Barnett posted video of the incident on Twitter on Tuesday night. In the video, Barnett can be seen attempting to ask Kushner a question as he makes his way off the plane, before a Secret Service agent appears to block his way.

                  Barnett can then be seen showing his CBS and White House press credentials to one of the agents, who responds, “I don’t give a damn who you are, there’s a time and a place.”



                  On “CBS This Morning,” Barnett said he was trying to ask Kushner about missing Saudi journalist and Washington Post contributor Jamal Khashoggi. Kushner has close ties to Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who has denied any involvement in the disappearance.

                  As Kushner walked past, “the Secret Service agent kind of ran interference; put his hand over my phone, over the camera,” Barnett said. He added, “What’s key about this is: What is the time and place to ask Jared Kushner a question? He does not make himself available, and there are so many more questions we have.”

                  A Secret Service spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment from The Post. In a statement to CBS News on Tuesday night, the Secret Service said that it is investigating the matter.

                  “The circumstances surrounding the incident are under review. Pending receipt of additional facts, details and full circumstances surrounding the incident, appropriate action will be taken if necessary,” the statement said.

                  During the 2016 campaign, tensions occasionally flared between the Secret Service and the media, with some journalists reporting that agents blocked their access to candidates or rally attendees, particularly at Donald Trump’s campaign events.

                  At the time, the Secret Service responded in a statement to HuffPost that any media restrictions were “designated and enforced by staff, not by the Secret Service.”
                  What a dishonest, dishonorable, unAmerican organization.

                    Two US citizens were wounded and local police chief killed as NATO and US forces commander in Afghanistan, Austin S. Miller, and his associates came under fire after a high-profile meeting in the city of Kandahar.
