    The Buffalo Police Department Emergency Response Team was harshly criticized online after all 57 officers resigned from the team in solidarity with officers who were suspended for shoving an elderly man during protests against police violence.

    A GOP senator being homophobic but gay for years?! You don't say!

    Quite honestly, you could bet your house on any GOP person being gay. Bonus if they're outspoken homophobics. Bonus if they scream for more Bible in the constitution.

    This is the equivalent of renaming a failing company without actually making any changes to avoid it from failing entirely. If the DC city council wanted to actually do something meaningful, perhaps they should start the process of reforming their police department and using their position to protect the protestors from the federal law enforcement's abuses...

    Outing someone specially for their sexual orientation is not something I condone, but I would make an exception for this SOB.

    They aren't outing him for his sexual orientation. They are outing him for being yet another homosexual Republican that pushes an anti-LGBT agenda.

    For all the celebrations yesterday.....It appears there was a major error in the unemployment rate.....

    When the U.S. government’s official jobs report for May came out on Friday, it included a note at the bottom saying there had been a major ‘error’ indicating that the unemployment rate likely should be higher than the widely reported 13.3 percent rate,” the Washington Post reports.

    “The special note said that if this ‘misclassification error’ had not occurred, the ‘overall unemployment rate would have been about 3 percentage points higher than reported,’ meaning the unemployment rate would be about 16.3 percent for May, but that would still be an improvement from an unemployment rate of more than 19 percent for April, applying the same standards.”

    Am I the only person thinking this was a "mistake" rather than a mistake? So Trump could have good news on Friday leading into the weekend?

    Under Trump, it's something you have to consider.

    President Donald Trump visited Maine on Friday and toured the Puritan Medical Products facility in Guilford. It was a big day for the small town, and for one of Maine’s oldest businesses.

    Trump toured the production line wearing no mask or protective gear and even put a swab near his nose.

    According to USA Today, the company will ultimately be throwing out the swabs that were being manufactured during his visit. The exact reason or how many is unclear at this time.



    Why do they still allow him to do those photo ops? It’s not like they’re getting positive press out of it...

    It was a mistake, but the reason why they didn’t actually correct the number and instead made a note was because they didn’t want to be accused of playing politics with the numbers. Haha

    This goes against the "without the laughs" portion of the title, but that's to be expected with Randy Rainbow

    Bennet, the NYT editor has resigned after the Tom Cotton's op-ed fiasco. For the life of me, I still can't understand why the Times published that dangerous garbage.


    Bennet Resigns as Editor of NYT Editorial Page

    James Bennet has resigned as editor of the New York Times’ editorial page.

    Axios: “Bennet had been under fire for green-lighting an op-ed by Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) that called on President Trump to ‘send in the troops’ in order to quell violent protests over the death of George Floyd. Times employees organized a protest on social media and claimed that publishing the op-ed put black staff in danger.”
