    The AP has corrected the way they reported this, it became a meme, so a little to late, but hey fvck fox news, they deserve it.

    Now AP does correct and apologize when they get it wrong, when was the last time fox news did that?

    One of the tales (somewhat true, in this case) told about American history is that in the Revolutionary War, the Americans didn't play by the rules. We didn't always march in formation, and we didn't wear bright red uniforms. We used guerilla tactics. The British thought we fought dishonorably.

    But they lost. We won.

    I found this article mildly interesting. The "mild" comes from the fact that it just confirms what we already "know," but now we know.

    The article is written by a blonde former reality TV star (Road Rules, 1998) who was repeatedly told by agents that she could be a TV pundit if she believed the things Coulter and Lahren say.

    She decided to pass. "Ironically, it was the socially conservative moral code I grew up with that kept me from compromising my conscience. Prosperity gospel misreadings of theology aside, Christianity reminds believers that there are many things money can’t buy. I was hustling in the creative market just like everyone else, but I wasn’t about to sell my soul for a conservative-slanted shortcut."

    Watch Hannity get promoted to head of broadcasting. They will have live cameras on Orange Asshole as he strains on the bowl at 6 AM hammering out one dumb tweet after another. "When The Left says that our president can't multitask I say watch this video"

    At that point, they'll release the Pee pee tape, say that it was a clever move and the starting point of our great relationship with Russia, and then it would be considered an official document and saved for display on 45's Presidential Library.

    She seems pretty interesting.

    Or maybe I just don't feel like going to the gym.

    It's really so Earth 2 that I wouldn't put it past them. Wrecking the status quo is good for 'Merica & the world.

    Sean Hannity...slumlord? :D

    The records link Hannity to a group of shell companies that spent at least $90m on more than 870 homes in seven states over the past decade. The properties range from luxurious mansions to rentals for low-income families. Hannity is the hidden owner behind some of the shell companies and his attorney did not dispute that he owns all of them.

    Dozens of the properties were bought at a discount in 2013, after banks foreclosed on their previous owners for defaulting on mortgages. Before and after then, Hannity sharply criticised Barack Obama for the US foreclosure rate. In January 2016, Hannity said there were “millions more Americans suffering under this president” partly because of foreclosures.

    Hannity, 56, also amassed part of his property collection with support from the US Department for Housing and Urban Development (Hud), a fact he did not disclose when praising Ben Carson, the Hud secretary, on his television show last year

    This comes as completely and totally unsurprising news.

    It would have been surprising if he was NOT a slumlord, or involved in some form of dodgy businesses.

    I guess the only positive thing one could say is, that unlike his idol Trump, Sean actually earned his wealth preaching anti-Clinton hate and general divisiveness.

    Not going to check it out, but I do recall that the British were reported to have offered freedom to any Black people who fought for them. We'll never know whether they made the correct call or not.
