The school bus driver was employed by an outside contracting agency for the district. This tragedy appears destined to end up in the ‘killed by cultural marxism’ file folder.
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (CBS News/AP) – A school bus driver charged with vehicular homicide in a crash in Tennessee asked the children if they were ready to die, according to the mother of three kids who were aboard the bus. One of her children was among the five dead.

“My daughter said right before the bus flipped that he was speeding around the curve and asked them ‘Are y’all ready to die,’”Jasmine Mateen told CBS News correspondent Mark Strassman. Mateen’s 6-year-old daughter was killed.

San Antonio –  A San Antonio police officer was shot and killed while writing a traffic ticket, according to Police Chief William McManus.
The chief said that while the officer was writing a ticket, someone pulled up behind the squad car, stepped out of his vehicle and shot the officer twice, once in the head. The shooter then drove off. (more…)

Following the path of Angela Corey (Sanford/Zimmerman) and Marilyn Mosby (Baltimore/Freddie Gray), a Minnesota activist prosecutor named John Choi has made the decision to charge Officer Jeronimo Janez with 3rd degree manslaughter in the shooting case of Philando Castile, without going to a grand jury (pdf complaint below).
The explanation by Choi is quite astonishing, and reflects a rogue decision to satisfy, yet again, the social justice crowd while wasting taxpayer money:
Minnesota – The use of deadly force by a St. Anthony police officer was determined to be unjustified in the shooting death of Philando Castile.  Ramsey County Attorney John Choi made the announcement during a news conference Wednesday morning.

Choi began his announcement by saying that after spending 19 weeks “immersed in the facts and law and thinking about what justice requires in the case,” he said he decided it would be wrong to ask a grand jury to make a decision regarding the case.
He said although he knows some members of the community may not be pleased with such a decision, he said “in order to achieve justice, we must be willing to do the right thing no matter how hard it may seem.”

If you were wondering just how massive the potential scope and long-term impact of a Trump victory might be, well, things just got even better/bigger.

In 2008 the DNC made a specific decision to go all-in with full throated radicalism and left-wing ideological moonbattery.   The social justice warriors took over the advocacy reins of the Democrat party.  Progressive purity was the litmus, climate and social justice was the cause celeb.  Obama was the vehicle, emotion drives the brand.

The riots and protests coordinated by the White House and professional left-wing organizations continue through day #5.
However, despite the MSM trying to attach responsibility to Trump, their intended purpose -to protect the Obama/Clinton legacy- is not yielding the desired results.  More and more people are looking toward the White House silence and beginning to understand the manipulative ideological intents of the professional antagonism.
President Obama is about to depart for Europe (Greece) and Peru (APEC summit) on his last foreign travel assignment.  Allowing President-Elect Trump to own the domestic media narrative under these circumstances is entirely too politically dangerous:

President-Elect Trump has effectively leveraged silence, and as a consequence forced President Obama to own the riots and protests.   Anticipate Obama’s attempt to distance himself from the violence of his own creation tomorrow afternoon.

During a school assignment, with the leadership of the school teacher and administration, a group of young children were asked to vote for  their presidential candidate.
One mother finds out her child voted for candidate Donald Trump.  She films her response to her child and posts to Facebook the punishment she feels is appropriate for his decision.
What she does is disturbing on many levels, yet profoundly representative of a very specific form of abusive psychosis:

The psychological abuse evident in this video is almost incomprehensible. Yet somehow there are large numbers of people who will see no issue with this behavior.  That reality is why she felt comfortable posting her action to her social media. (more…)

Van Jones says: “Donald Trump’s election was a white-lash“.  Unfortunately for Jones’ narrative Romney won 59% of the white vote. Trump won 58%, so it wasn’t a racial issue.
Feminist Democrat Leaders/Politicians blame gender bias against Hillary Clinton for Trump’s election.  Unfortunately for their narrative Obama won with 47% of women voters, Hillary Clinton only carried 43% of female voters – so it wasn’t a gender issue.
However, both groups are on the street tonight marching in protest against Donald Trump’s election.

The George Soros’ funded Black Lives Matter group (Van Jones), and the raging left-wing feminist moonbats are joined by the Bernie Sanders Occupy Wall Street (OWS) anarchists.
Go figure…

The Clinton campaign is relying on a heavily promoted narrative that minority voting, specifically black voting, is lower as compared to 2012 and 2008.  This approach appears to be their effort to boost voter turnout.  However, this narrative is not necessarily true.
If you pay close attention to their cited comparables – what the MSM are comparing is often “percentage of voters“, not the underlying raw voter stat.

FYI, Example:

• If 10 out of 50 voters are black = 20% black voting.
• If 15 out of 100 voters are black = 15% black voting.

Even though the number of black voters in this example is higher (15 vs 10), the current preferred media narrative is to focus on the percentage (15% vs 20%).
In almost all media broadcasts they are using the percentage of vote as the metric to drive the narrative.  Few, if any, are showing the underlying number of voters. (more…)

We followed the case against the Democrat Attorney General since it’s inception.  SEE HERE – SEE HERE – SEE HERE – SEE HERE – AND SEE HERE  Today, Kathleen Kane got a brand new set of bracelets:

(Via Daily Mail) Former Attorney General Kathleen Kane was sentenced Monday to 10 to 23 months in jail for illegally disclosing details from a grand jury investigation to embarrass a rival and lying about it under oath.

Kane was also sentenced to eight years of probation by a Montgomery County judge who said Kane’s ego drove her to take down enemies and break the law. (more…)
