Former President Barack Obama reacted Tuesday to the news that Mayor Rahm Emanuel decided not to run for re-election for a third term.
“Chicago is better and stronger for his leadership,” Obama wrote in a statement emailed to reporters, praising Rahm Emanuel’s service as his first White House Chief of Staff, as a congressman, and as the Mayor of Chicago.
“I’ve decided not to seek re-election,” Emanuel said on Tuesday. “This has been the job of a lifetime, but it is not a job for a lifetime.”
The former president recalled Emanuel’s “wise counsel” at a “particularly perilous time” for the United States.
Obama praised Emanuel for improving job growth and employment numbers as well as his efforts to improve the schools in Chicago by implementing universal pre-Kindergarten and debt-free community college.
“I’ve been blessed to call Rahm my friend. Whatever he chooses to do next, I know he’ll continue to make a positive difference, just as he has throughout his career in public service,” Obama said. “And Michelle and I wish Rahm and Amy all the best as they consider this next phase in their lives.”
The president did not address Emanuel’s questionable record on preventing violent shootings in the City of Chicago.I drank beer. I like beer. I still like beer. ... Do you like beer Senator?

More guns is always the answer. Take a look at Florida. It solves everything, besides the skyrocketing rate of mass shootings in the states and murders. Stand your ground lol. You could shoot a guy in the back and claim you were standing your ground. Kidiot loves it.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)

Trump has called on The New York Times to out the article's author for "national security purposes."
Everything in the NYTimes OP/ED is true. And it's a total meltdown for this White House.
Some do in fact believe it was Pence who wrote it. The fact is this the 25th amendment may come into play very soon as this rebellion continues to simmer. Trump can't fire everyone.
I can't stand Pence and think he's a P.O.S, but he'll be easily beaten in 2020.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night.

Originally posted by BBCRoy Moore sues Sacha Baron Cohen for defamation over TV stunt
Former US Senate candidate Roy Moore is suing the British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen for defamation after falling victim to a TV show prank.
In a sketch for his series Who Is America?, Baron Cohen pretends to be an Israeli anti-terrorism expert demonstrating a "paedophile detector".
When the "device" is waved near Mr Moore, it beeps.
In last year's Senate campaign, Mr Moore was dogged by allegations of sexual misconduct, which he denies.
His lawyers say the satirist falsely accused their client of being a sex offender. They are seeking $95m (£73m) in damages from Baron Cohen and from the Showtime and CBS networks.
.....
The complaint says Mr Moore, his wife and their whole family suffered "severe emotional distress and pain... especially given his status as a prominent conservative and God fearing person of faith".I am not delusional!
