It's not about following rules
If you ordered a coke at a restaurant and all they had was sprite and hemlock, you stupid muhfuckas are basically saying drink the hemlock because sprite expects you to order it. Drink the fucking sprite, go home alive and work on getting coke into the restaurant.
Its no coincidence the niggas in here with this bullshit have histories of trolling on this board.
Fuck you empty headed niggas make me sick.

These are the GOP officials
who have spent the most
at Trump properties
There is a familiar name at the top of the list.
President Trump: $534,864
Rep. Jodey Arrington: $16,602
Rep. Tom MacArthur: $15,221
Rep. Dana Rohrabacher: $12,545
Rep. Bill Shuster: $9,277
Rep. Michael McCaul: $7,585
Rep. Greg Walden: $6,707
Rep. Roger Williams: $3,286
Rep. Mike Kelly: $2,154
Since President Trump won last year’s election, his company — the Trump Organization — has experienced an increase in one particular line of business: hosting fundraisers and receptions for Republican lawmakers.
These events have mostly happened at Trump International Hotel in downtown Washington, which opened last year. The luxe hotel has a large ballroom, two smaller banquet rooms and a BLT Prime steakhouse. It was designed to attract campaign fundraisers, even if Trump had not won the White House.
He did. And Trump made the controversial decision to maintain ownership of his businesses as president, even as he handed day-to-day control to his adult sons.
That arrangement has made 2017 a fascinating experiment: How would the fundraising circuit change now that legislators had the option of spending their campaign dollars with an incumbent president?
Between Election Day 2016 and the end of September of this year, federal political committees reported paying at least $1.27 million to Trump entities, according to Federal Election Commission filings.
Not a dollar has come from any Democrats.
Among congressional Republicans, 40 have spent campaign or leadership PAC money at Trump properties, including the D.C. hotel and other hotels and golf clubs throughout the country. The Trump Organization declined to comment.
The president’s business has not upended the established fundraising business in Washington: GOP legislators, for instance, have still spent more campaign and PAC money at the Charlie Palmer steakhouse on Capitol Hill than at all the Trump properties in 2017.
Below are the 10 national Republican officials who have spent the most at Trump properties since Election Day 2016 — and the congressional candidate who has spent the most at the president’s venues.
President Trump
$534,864 spent at Trump-branded properties since Jan. 1, 2017
Among Republican politicians, Donald Trump’s best customer this year — by far — has been Donald Trump.
President Trump, who began fundraising for his 2020 reelection on Inauguration Day, has spent heavily at Trump Organization properties through his campaign and two affiliated committees since Jan. 1. His campaign has paid $482,371 for rent at Trump Tower in New York. It paid $22,700 for stays at the Trump hotel in D.C. It spent $2,596 on “office supplies” from Trump Ice, a bottled-water company.
In addition, the Republican National Committee spent $176,738 at Trump properties this year, including $122,000 to host a fundraiser headlined by the president at the Trump hotel in Washington in June.
Rep. Jodey Arrington (R-Tex.)
$16,602 spent at Trump-branded properties since Election Day 2016
Arrington is a freshman representative from West Texas. In January, he held a reception in the Franklin Study, a meeting room at Trump’s D.C. hotel, for 100-plus supporters who had come to see Arrington be sworn in.
The Trump hotel “happened to offer the best combination of size, price point, along with a convenient and historic location,” said Kate McBrayer, a spokeswoman for Arrington.
Arrington’s campaign spent more than $16,000 on the reception. At the time, it set a record: the most expensive event ever held by another GOP politician at the new Trump hotel.
Ten months later, the record stands. No other GOP lawmaker has reported holding an event this expensive at Trump’s D.C. hotel.
Rep. Tom MacArthur (R-N.J.)
$15,221 spent at Trump-branded properties since Election Day 2016
This summer, MacArthur’s campaign paid to rent a room for a fundraiser at Trump’s golf course in Bedminster, N.J. The event’s headliner was Trump, who was spending the weekend at his home on the course.
MacArthur raised more than $700,000 at the event, according to news reports.
Just days after the fundraiser, Trump undercut MacArthur’s key legislative achievement — a House bill to repeal President Barack Obama’s health-care law — by publicly calling it “mean.” MacArthur’s staff did not respond to requests for comment.
Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-Calif.)
$12,545 spent at Trump-branded properties since Election Day 2016
In June, Rohrabacher held a fundraiser in the Franklin Study at Trump’s Washington hotel that drew about 75 people.
A video of the event, posted on Instagram, shows Rohrabacher talking about a major issue for him: marijuana legalization. “Why are we trying to ruin the lives of a million people because they had a . . . joint and ended up with criminal record?” Rohrabacher asked the crowd. His campaign paid for the event.
Joel Pitkin, a spokesman for Rohrabacher’s campaign, said the event raised about $100,000. He said the site was not chosen as a favor to Trump.
“Not because he’s the president but just because his hotels and his properties are set to a standard that is very elegant,” Pitkin said.
Rep. Bill Shuster (R-Pa.)
$9,277 spent at Trump-branded properties since Election Day 2016
Shuster’s campaign committee spent a combined $9,277 at the D.C. hotel and its BLT Prime steakhouse in March, April and early May. Campaign finance filings say the expenditures were for “event catering,” “meeting expense” and “event facility rental.” It was not clear whether the payments were for a single event or multiple events.
A few weeks later, Trump lent his support to an idea that Shuster had been pushing for years — privatizing the U.S. air traffic control system. In an East Room ceremony, Trump signed a memo and a letter to Congress endorsing the idea, as Shuster looked on.
“I have a feeling Shuster’s going to get the first pen. What do you think?” Trump asked the other Republicans gathered. Trump handed Shuster the pen as a souvenir. The plan later stalled in Congress.
Shuster did not respond to a request for comment.
Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Tex.)
$7,585 spent at Trump-branded properties since Election Day 2016
McCaul, who advised Trump on homeland security issues during the 2016 race, used campaign funds to pay for a Christmas reception last December at the BLT Prime steakhouse at Trump’s D.C. hotel.
Around the same time, Trump was considering McCaul as a candidate for homeland security secretary. Lizzie Litzow, a spokeswoman for McCaul, said McCaul did not choose the venue because it was owned by Trump.
“This venue was considered among others around town and picked for reasons such as the size, location and schedule,” Litzow said.
The homeland security job went instead to John Kelly, who later became White House chief of staff. McCaul remains in the House.
Rep. Greg Walden (R-Ore.)
$6,707 spent at Trump-branded properties since Election Day 2016
Walden, who chairs the House Energy and Commerce Committee, used campaign funds to pay for a fundraiser at BLT Prime in March and a meeting there in June.
Walden did not respond to requests for comment.
Fundraising records show that while he was one of the top spenders at the president’s hotel, Walden’s campaign also spent thousands at a number of other D.C. fundraising hot spots. He spent $7,729, for instance, at Mastro’s Steakhouse.
Rep. Roger Williams (R-Tex.)
$3,286 spent at Trump-branded properties since Election Day 2016
Williams used campaign money to pay $3,286 for a “meal/meeting expense” at BLT Prime in May.
Williams did not respond to questions about that expenditure.
Rep. Mike Kelly (R-Pa.)
$2,154 spent at Trump-branded properties since Election Day 2016
Kelly, one of Trump’s most vocal supporters in the House, has spent $2,154 from his campaign and his leadership PAC on events at Trump’s D.C. hotel and BLT Prime. In May, Kelly told the Washington Examiner he was frustrated with what he described as other Republicans’ insufficient support of Trump: “My request of my colleagues is, all the time, you keep pushing back against him. Why?”
“The congressman hosted several events for supporters who were excited to visit the venue,” said Thomas Qualtere, a spokesman for Kelly. Qualtere did not respond to follow-up questions asking about the nature of the events and Kelly’s reasons for choosing the Trump hotel.
Sen. John Neely Kennedy (R-La.)
$1,850 spent at Trump-branded properties since Election Day 2016
Kennedy, a freshman senator, spent $1,850 of his campaign’s money on lodging at the Trump hotel in Washington in late August, according to campaign finance reports.
Kennedy’s staff did not respond to questions about this expenditure.
Omar Navarro (R)
$8,451 spent at Trump-branded properties since Election Day 2016
Navarro is a long-shot candidate from Los Angeles who is trying to unseat a frequent Trump critic: Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.). Navarro also tried to beat Waters last year but lost in a landslide.
This year, Navarro’s campaign has shelled out $8,451 — about one-tenth of the campaign’s total spending — for expenses at Trump properties. He has paid for overnight stays at Trump’s Las Vegas hotel and for two fundraisers at Trump National Golf Club in Rancho Palos Verdes, Calif.
“I support the president 100 percent,” Navarro said in an interview. “I’m going to do business with places that my political views are aligned with.”
Navarro’s most recent fundraiser was held in the chandeliered Grand Ballroom at the Trump club. The event drew about 50 people. In his speech, Navarro sounded many Trumpian notes, deriding establishment politicians and promoting the idea of building a wall between the United States and Mexico.
“Not only do we have to build that wall, we have to also make sure there are [not] tunnels under that wall so people don’t go under that wall,” said the 28-year-old candidate, prompting cheers.
He was backed up by former Maricopa County, Ariz., sheriff Joe Arpaio, whom Trump pardoned earlier this year after he was convicted of criminal contempt over his department’s treatment of immigrants.
“Who is my hero? Donald Trump,” Arpaio told the group in the largely empty ballroom.
The tab for the night, paid to the president’s club: $4,132.

He trying to soften his downfall
That Omar nigga 28?????????
A couple months ago I thought maybe I was being a bit harsh with my assessment of him as being a fucking idiot moron troll. So I said fuck it let me give him the benefit of doubt. Now months later he doubles down on dumb shit. It reminds me of an episode of The Wire that time Avon told Slim it was all a lie and some bullshit that let to them warring with Marlo and Slim was like fuck that we're going to war on that lie. Feel free to continue engaging him. As far as I'm concerned we might as well be talking to chump himself.
The black liberal coonfest. You bitch ass niggaz learn to think for yourselves. We watched as a Black ass president and his 2 attorney generals IGNORE unarmed Black males getting shot to death all across the nation while they did NOTHING. Obama ain't put 1 Black person on the supreme court. Instead he talked down on us only and called us THUGS.
But we supposed to vote for miss hilly who called us super predators while y'all uncle Joe was busy writing the bill that clinton would use to further destroy the Black family. These are supposed to be the good guys? Shit I can't tell.
30 years of republicans means no more sitting on your asses dreaming about busted white hoes y'all would like to save.
Now you gotta be proactive. Old fashion white supremacy is back motherfuckaz.
Y'all thought y'all would continue to skate by another presidential term and do nothing huh?
It's sink or swim time. Those who bullshitted and thought they would get saved by playing it safe are about to be in for a rude awakening. The herd needs to be thinned. Too many useless niggaz in the community. Go cry tears with Angela Rye and Van Jones. We bout to find out who's real and who's fake. Cooning ain't gonna save you goofy ass niggaz. The democrat party and the useless CBC ain't got no answers for you niggaz. You allowed this fuckery to occur by not demanding shit from any of these politicians and now it's going to bite you in the ass. But hey Barack has a nice jump shot though....

This is past what's best for Black people. It's certainly not Trump and republicans.
If you have no family and your line dies with you I understand your stance. If not, you are selfish.
16,000 scientists sign dire warning to humanity over health of planet
(CNN)More than 16,000 scientists from 184 countries have published a second warning to humanity advising that we need to change our wicked ways to help the planet.
In 1992, 1,700 independent scientists signed the "World Scientists' Warning to Humanity." The letter warned that "human beings and the natural world are on a collision course" and if environmental damage was not stopped, our future was at risk.
That letter made headlines 25 years ago, but the world still faces daunting environmental challenges. So environmental scientist William Ripple and his colleagues decided to create a new letter that has also struck a nerve. Since it waspublished in the journal BioScience on Monday, hundreds more scientists have signed on to the letter.
The letter essentially says that if there is not a groundswell of public pressure to change human behavior, the planet will sustain "substantial and irreversible" harm.
"This is not about some natural phenomenon that is removed from humans," said Ripple, a distinguished professor of ecology at Oregon State University. "If we don't have a healthy biosphere, as it is called, if we continue to have major environmental problems and climate change problems, then this goes directly to the welfare of humans. People need to understand that we are trying to save ourselves from catastrophic huge misery."
Though there have been a handful of positive changes, current data show that many environmental problems have gotten "alarmingly" worse since the last letter was penned.

Nice try Hotep comrade.
Your "Obama ain't did shit for black people " rant has been played, debunked, and shelved.
If you ain't proposing real solutions, that will get passed, go back to the shadows.
It will never be past what's best for black people.
So now we are supposed to join hands and sing we are the world because non-black people are facing what has been the existence for far too many of us for far too long.
remember I pointed out that during the 50's and 60's nobody gave a fuck about us being lynched, attacked by police dogs and fire hoses. Nobody paid attention to people being dragged from their beds and murdered. Nobody cared about activists being murdered and jailed. Nobody cared about churches being burned .
Then two jews and an Italian lady were murdered and it was a national outrage.
Fast forward to 2017
Nobody cared about unarmed black people being beaten and murdered by police. Nobody cared about black people still being shut out of corporate America. Nobody cared about the prison industrial complex.
Nobody even acknowledged racism. The black activist was labeled terrorists.
But then in Charlottesville, a white woman was mowed down and killed and now everywhere you turn you hear the white folks talking about racism and white supremacy, Nazis hate and divisiveness.
Now the politics of hate and racism is wrong because it is knocking on their doors.. Now its time to do something about white supremacy ass long as you don't kneel during the national anthem.
And you in here talking about it's past whats best for blacks ?
it will never be past that.
I\ll say it again, I don't give a fuck about Trump but I do know nobody gave a fuck about our condition before Trump and they won't give a fuck after Trump.
And you'll be just like a WW2 vet...You can fight but you ain't equal and you won't be considered a victor when it's time to divide the spoils.
It will always be what's best for black because I have family and my line doesn't stop with me.
Please educate me because of my complaint in regards to no federal prosecutions for civil rights violations under Holder and only one charge under Lynch but no trial.
I also had the same complaint that in 3 opportunities Obama did not nominate a single black to SCOTUS...
So what is it you say he did for blacks? Not things that blacks benefited from but did for blacks. He did for gays that were only for them. He did for illegals that were only for them.
Now I am not saying you are wrong I am asking to be enlightened.
You ask for a real solution.
Increase the value and power of the black vote but not just automatically being right on time without requiring anything in return.
Increasing political presence at the local and state levels and grooming those who have our interest in the national offices.
Using our annual spending to increase our presence in the business and corporate communities creating financial power that benefits us and not white business owners. It's easy to say we need our own and we do but we need to use our spending to strong arm those corporations that are already in play to increase our part in their organizations. Stop spending money with companies that don't hire us or only gives us a token presence.
We are cheap ho's right now giving our votes and our money away..That has to stop in order for us to create a power base.
We need to do a better job raising our kids and taking back our blocks....And our kids are just the ones we birthed.
We have to build our communities and make sure they are safe ..
And we have to stop claiming the bullshit that the crakkas give us.. The bricks ain't ours, the slums and hood ain't ours...It was theirs before they ran them down and moved on then they allowed us to go there. But instead of moving on we planted roots and claimed their abandoned shit.
Hopefully you have grown up a little by now.

- President Donald Trump nominates mainly white men to USA's federal courts
- 91 percent of Trump's nominees are white and 81 percent are male

- White House spokesman Hogan Gidley says Trump is focused on qualifications and suggests that prioritizing diversity would bring politics to the bench
- White men represented just 37 percent of judges during Obama's two terms
- AP reviewed 58 nominees to lifetime positions on appellate and district courts
- Fifty-three are white, three are Asian-American, one is Hispanic and one is African-American. There are 47 men and 11 women. Thirteen have won approval
The shift could prove to be one of Trump's most enduring legacies. These are lifetime appointments, and Trump has inherited both an unusually high number of vacancies and an aging population of judges.
That puts him in position to significantly reshape the courts that decide thousands of civil rights, environmental, criminal justice and other disputes across the country.
The White House has been upfront about its plans to quickly fill the seats with conservatives, and has made clear that judicial philosophy tops any concerns about shrinking racial or gender diversity.
Trump is anything but shy about his plans, calling his imprint on the courts an 'untold story' of his presidency.

Well!!!
Quote the whole post.
You have a family but fuck them because of your ignorance.
The extection of every living creature on earth covers your line fool.
Not only is Trump and the republicans the worse thing currently for Black people their policies threaten the very existence of life on earth.
What are you in argueing about again?
Please tell us how it's good for us that we are the only nation denying global warming and trying nothing.
Another Jill Stein voter.
Just close this fucking thread down.
Please explain to us how Trump electing his judges is the best thing for you.
Cmon tell us how Trump is good for us.

Tell us how nothing will be different for Black people
I also have my complaints with Obama not being far more agressive, but the old trope that he did nothing for blacks was false.
Regarding the SCOTUS - I think Sotomayer was a good pick (I know she's not black)
Same sex marriages - well some black folks are gay. (not exclusive to black folks,either)
Blocked deportation of illegal immigrants (yes, a minority are black, but not Decendent of US slaves)
20 civil rights investigations into local police departments - again not excusively a black issue, but i'm assuming this benefits black folk
8 civil rights cases opened, including Ferguson - I assume these benefit black folk
18% of the Federal Judges appointed are black.
The main thing that fits the "what has Obama..." criteria - is settling the Black Farmer reparation lawsuit.
The other points you bring up are admirable and desirable, but not within the scope of the presidency of the US
ThAt a weak list because there may be a gay black man or undocumented black immigrant.....
AND whether Sotomayor is good or not isn't the point. ..there were no black cand dates as good or better...or was it that they didn't have to solidify the black vote like they did the Hispanic vote...
The point of what he did has one and only one criteria....was it to benefit black people..
Not if a black person might benefit..
Those investigations were bullshit because they didn't result in anything..just talk.
Just like no bankers being prosecuted...those fines were bullshit. ..Duetch bank has a annual fund to pay fines...doesn't matter that black people were hardestroyed hit because black people's wealth was largely in real estate..
So black people who were able to stay are saddled with underwater loans..
Go read how that farmer lawsuit was too little to late...
Again the criteria is was the policy designed to benefit black folks not would it include some
And my solutions have everything to do with presidential elections...each thing will empower and give value to the black voting block that currently is taken for granted...it isn't coveted, it isnt worked for..
Nobody ever said he was good...the question is how much worse is he than those before him...
No you tell me what will be different..
Will police and white folks kill us with no consequences
Will we be kept out of private unions
Will our schools be underresourced
Will our communities be occupied
Will we continue to more than twice as likely to be.unemployed
Will we be the majority of faces imprisoned
Cmon tell me
Chicken little ass, Trump aint ending any life but his own..
And if he does then who gives a fuck
That will be the only equality we ever saw in this country
Trust and believe i'm not thrilled about the accomplishments either, but it aint nothing. And its certainly not regressive.
Sotomayer >>>>>> Clarence Thomas.
At least the black farmer issue got settled, instead of kicked down the road.
Some fines are better than no fines.
Your objectives are not legislative. Those objectives are bottom up initatives. The president can set the environment to remove roadblocks and unnecesary hurdles.
You refuse to answer the original post you quoted.
We will never advance
As I said I was around when reagan was president....trickle down is a myth everything is bottom up.we can't get anything legislative as long as we are powerless and valueless. As long as they get our votes for nothing we will never benefit legislatively
Those fin es were meaningless. ..it was.like Michael milked stole 50 million and was fined 5 million..
InvestigationS was bullshit consent decrees were bullshit and the fines are bullshit
There were a lot black mortgage brokers who went to prison for doing the banks dirty work, they didn't get fines
It isn't if Sotomayor is better than clarence....was she and Kegan better that every black candidate
Why would I answer a question that shouldn't be asked. .
Nobody said Trump is good but those made up issues are exactly why you will support something else.
You think covert racism is better because it saves your feelings.
You would rather eat poison than get shot but they both dead.
Me on the otherhand,shoot me if you want me dead.I won't kill myself cause you holding a gun..
So I see you will avoid how great it's been before trump...
Let's get this right.
You don't give a fuck Trump is electing mainly white judges. The most any President in recent history
You don't care that the kkk and other hate groups are gaining influence and power.
You don't give a fuck your family will face horrendous times in their future due to global warming.
But you care about not electing democrats because you would be giving away your vote.
When does your grand plan of making Black lives better by electing republicans take shape?
