Trump calls for racial unity, embraces 'stop and frisk'



Thursday, September 22, 2016: PITTSBURGH - Lamenting a 'lack of spirit' between whites and blacks, Donald Trump encouraged racial unity on Thursday even as he called for one of the nation's largest cities to adopt 'stop and frisk' policing tactics that have been widely condemned as racial profiling by minority
leaders.

The Republican presidential contender, eager to blunt criticism that his campaign inspires racism, confronted racial tensions after police-involved shootings of black men in Oklahoma and North Carolina. The North Carolina governor activated the National Guard overnight after another night of violent protests.

Trump, as he has for much of his unorthodox presidential bid, offered a decidedly mixed message as he confronted the delicate issue.

I put the flag on the ground, and I took two steps with my right foot and I said, 'This is an example of free speech,'" Francis told CNN affiliate WRAL.

OPINION: Obama Knows The REAL Reason Americans Don’t Like Hillary

.On Sunday, President Barack Obama suggested that Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton is slumping in the polls against a reality TV star simply because America is comprised of a bunch of sexists!

Note: It’s definitely not Hillary’s promise to continue the horrific policies of the Obama Administration, or her inane knack for corruption, or her epic failures during her time serving as secretary of state, or her penchant for lying, or her inability to present herself as anything other than a boring, cold robot.
No, not that stuff. You’re just sexist.

PIERS MORGAN: It doesn’t matter what names the mainstream media call Trump – he says exactly what most Americans think, especially when it comes to Islamic terror

Donald Trump’s a monster.
A vile, hideous, bigoted, nasty, ignorant, deluded, psychotic, ruthless,
preposterous, demented buffoon on a collision course to steal the White
House and destroy the planet. Oh,and he’s a sexist, racist, homophobic,
misogynist pig too, and every other word ending in ‘–ist’ you can think of for that matter.
Actually he’s even worse than that; in fact, Trump’s the new Hitler – a man who,
you may recall, ordered the slaughter of six million Jews.

He thinks he's king, if he wants a war he can have one' - Yaya Toure's agent hits back at Pep Guardiola




Pep Guardiola on Tuesday in a press conference insisted that for Ivory Coast midfielder Yaya Toure to come back to the team, his agent will have to apologize for the things he's said against the team .
If you missed the story, read here

Now Yaya's outspoken agent Dimitri Seluk has fired back at the Man City coach saying he'll say what he
likes and that Pep feels like a king because he's been winning games.



Seluk also called on the Spaniard to apologise to goalkeeper Joe Hart and former City boss Manuel Pellegrini for his role in their Etihad exits.

He said:
‘If Guardiola wants a war, then he can have one. I felt that Pep was being vindictive to Yaya. He has reacted to what I have said by punishing Yaya again. Pep doesn’t want players with personality. He only wants players who are scared of him and will do what he says. 
‘The first thing he did when he arrived at City was to pick a fight with Yaya and Joe Hart, two of the club’s biggest players. They have both been big personalities in the dressing room at City and Guardiola doesn’t like that.  
‘What do I need to apologise for? I will apologise to Guardiola if he will apologise to Pellegrini for what he did to him. Colleagues should have respect for each other, especially in England where it is important to act like a gentleman. 
‘He also needs to apologise to Joe Hart. It’s not right to come to England and then get rid of a few English players. Guardiola wins a few games and thinks he is king.’

Messi made Barca not you, and even my Grandfather could have won the league with Bayern'- Toure's agent hits at Guardiola again

 

Will someone tell Yaya Toure's agent to keep quiet? Because there's a huge possibility that his media rants will ensure his client doesn't play football for the next 8 months.
Dimitri Seluk, Yaya Toure's Ukranian agent has fired more shots at Man City coach Pep Guardiola after the coach said Yaya won't play for the club again unless his agent apologises to the club and it's players. If you missed Dimitri Seluk's first response to Pep's apology demand, read here
Within the space of 24 hours after his first blast, Yaya Toure's agent now claims the Spaniard had little to do with Barcelona's success during his tenure saying if he was a good
coach he should go coach Sunderland or Zaragoza.
'The team he took at Barca had been built by Frank Rijkaard and then he was lucky to have Lionel Messi,' Seluk told the Daily Mirror.  
It was Messi who made Barca, not Pep. Luis Enrique has shown that Barca's success was not down to Guardiola. It was the same in Munich. He couldn't fail. My grandfather could have won the league with that team, he said.  
'If Pep wants to prove himself as a great manager, then he should go to Zaragoza or Sunderland. Let's see how good he is when he doesn't take over a great team and hasn't got half-a-billion pounds to spend.

House of Reps members in rowdy session over budget padding scandal


Lawmakers today threw caution to the wind as they engaged in a shouting match in the house over the alleged budget padding scandal. Sacked Chairman of the House committee on Appropriation, Abdulmumin Jibrin had filed a petition before the Police, ICPC, EFCC, alleging that the speaker, Yakubu Dogara, three principal officers and nine other lawmakers, had padded the 2016 budget.
At their plenary today, Speaker Dogara had reportedly given permission to Chairman of the
House Committee on Rules and Business, Emmanuel Orker-jev, to speak and during his speech, Orker-jev moved a motion on breach of his privilege and that of the House by Jibrin over his allegations.
At this point, members of the Transparency group who are loyal to Jibrin, stood up and started shouting “No, no, no.” This was immediately countered by Dogara's supporters who also started shouting “Dogara, Dogara” and began distributing green scarves with the inscription “I stand with Dogara".

It's Complicated: Will you stay with a bad person?

WHY People STAY IN BAD RELATIONSHIPS

1. Ego
2. Personal agenda
Some stay in bad relationships but do not commit themselves to it. They are virtually on their own and have all the time to focus on their life ambitions. The more he/she succeeds, the greater his/her self-esteem grows and the more he/she concentrates on his/her business. A bad relationship can wait as long as his/her business booms.
There are also those who stay in bad relationships to enhance their social status.
WILL YOU STAY WITH A BAD Person
What do you do if after doing your best your partner still proves unlovable? You choose; if you 
still love her/him stay, if not leave. Life is about the choices we make.

Give your advice! (Relationship matters)


Lost a woman i was in love with because of my lack of communication and my insecurities. Fellas if ur insecure don't look at everything ur lady says and does. Look at what she's showing u at that moment. I lost the love I'd been looking for and life isn't the same without her in it. Communicate ur self to the woman that u love and if she loves u she will not give u a reason to be insecure. I didn't communicate like I was supposed to. And then at the end of the day she never gave me a reason to be insecure. I just lacked trust. I saw that I was falling in love and I ran from it. Don't run from the person u love fellas. It sucks to get ur heart broken but trust me I'd rather get my heart broken than to deal with the regret and thinking about the what ifs. But I do love her still and if she is happy without me then I must let her go because I do love her. And I don't know what hurt a the most. Is it that regret losing her or that she's happier without me 
Pix for thought!?


We'll solve Niger Delta problem soon, President Buhari assures Barack Obama


President Muhammadu Buhari Tuesday assured Barack Obama, the American President Nigeria is making steady progress towards resolving the problem in the Niger Delta region which has led to economic sabotage on a grand scale.
 
During a bilateral meeting on the sidelines of the 71st edition of the UN General Assembly, holding in New York, President Buhari disclosed: 
"We are making definite progress on how many factions of the militant groups exist, their leadership and operational basis, and we have equally sought the cooperation of the oil majors. In a short while, I believe the issues would be resolved."
While thanking America for help rendered in the area of security through provision of armaments, training for Nigerian troops, and sharing of intelligence, which has led to the degradation of Boko Haram in the North East, President Buhari said the country was open to support in combating the humanitarian crisis currently ravaging the region.
 
The President said the farming season was good this year, with the prospect of good harvest, and "Nigeria is on the road to food self-sufficiency soon. We shall be able to feed ourselves, and utilize the billions of dollars spent on importing food on other productive areas."
 
President Buhari reiterated that his administration came to power on the tripod promises of security, battle against corruption, and revamping of the economy, stressing that there would be no let-up in fulfilling those electoral promises.

He wished President Obama a happy retirement, as he winds down gradually on his tenure in office.
Responding, the American President described President Buhari as a man of "integrity and honesty," saying: "We have confidence in your leadership. There are some difficulties you face, but this administration is willing to assist in the short time we have left. You have made real progress in defeating the brutal organization called Boko Haram, and that was achieved because of your leadership."
 
President Obama offered a hand of fellowship to Nigeria "in the final and comprehensive defeat of Boko Haram, resolution of the Niger Delta crisis, which would help ramp up oil production and increase revenue, resolving the humanitarian crisis in the North East, recovering stolen money, and revamping the economy."
 
Describing Nigeria as a big and important country in sub-Saharan Africa, the American President said his country looked forward to a framework for sustained partnership between the two nations.

When you share personal issues & the relationship goes south, in the hands of fair weather friends, the issue will hunt you - Alibaba


As Veteran comedian Alibaba shared via his Instagram page.
In the last two days, I have listened to audio recordings of a woman who had taken venting to a
different level. It made me reflect deeply on somethings that we take for granted. Trust. Friendship. Honesty. Self respect. Moral values.
Relationships. The dynamics of sex and the consequences of loose talk. Many times, we say things because we are angry. Someone or something must have pushed you to the wall, to make you abandon decorum and throw caution to the wind. Rightly so. But after the tempest, and you calm down, sit Down and look at the damage your out burst has caused, and you realize how much of wisdom you could and should have applied. I have had my many such cases. When guys quarrel, there is so much they know, but they usually check themselves with "Akin, I'm warning you, don't provoke me". That threat is always loaded. I had gone to see a top politician in Hotel in Abuja. And out came the wife of a guy I knew very well. She was shocked to see me, but we managed to keep our surprises in check. Years later, at an event, her husband did and said some nasty things to me iro my wife and I. I walked away. His wife was with him at the time. She was later to send me a text... "Thanks for your maturity, I appreciate". Nearly everyone has some skeleton in their cupboards. The gravity is just what determines how much you will trend when it becomes public knowledge. Sadly, as celebrities, being in the eye of the storm or goldfish in a glass bowl, doesn't make our stories, no matter how inconsequential, ordinary or ignorable. So when you are sharing personal issues that you really shouldn't, trust me, if the relationship goes south, those issues, in the hands of fair weather friends, will hunt you. A lady told each curious friend a different name as her baby Daddy. That way, whenever she heard the gist, she knew who it came from. Today she is closest to the person she told one name and she never heard it repeated. People are different after you part ways. Watch how much you let other people know. It's not a crime to careful. Some people are not human when they are angry. Avoid them toxic people. Judas regretted his act. But it was done. Choose friends wisely.

Yaya Toure will not play for Manchester City until his agent apologises to the club: Pep Guadiola

Man City manager,  Pep Guadiola is asking for an apology from Ivory Coast and Man City midfielder, Yaya Toure 's outspoken agent, Dimitri Seluk, regarding comments he made about him and the club recently. 

Toure, 33, has made only one appearance for City this season and was left out of their Champions League squad, this prompted a response from Seluk who said Toure had been ‘humiliated’ by his former Barcelona Coach.  Guardiola who felt Toure's agent was being disrespectful, says he will not play Toure until Seluk apologises.


 
After Yaya  was left out of City's Champions League squad, His Agent Seluk said: 
'It is Pep's decision and we must respect that.  If he wins the Champions League for City this season then I will travel to England and I will say on television that Pep Guardiola is the best manager in the world. But if City don't win the Champions League then I hope that Pep has got the balls to say that he was wrong to humiliate a great player like Yaya. 
'Yaya is a professional and so he will do everything he is asked to do. Perhaps Pep will think he is good enough to play in the final 10 minutes of a League Cup game against a third division team – and, yes, I am joking. But what I can tell you is that Yaya will spend the season at City. He will not be leaving in January. He hopes that he will get the chance to prove himself.'  
Explaining the reason why Toure will not be considered for Wednesday's tie at Swansea, Guardiola warned that the 33-year-old midfielder could be frozen out completely for the remaining eight months of his £220,000-a-week contract  unless Seluk apologises.
'It was so difficult for me to leave him (Toure) out of the Champions League, so difficult,' said Guardiola. 'I know him and I know he's a good guy.  
The day after his manager spoke and in that moment Yaya is out. Except Mr Dimitri Seluk comes back in the press conference or to his friends in the media – because he hasn't the courage to call me, he goes to the media . He has to apologise to Manchester City first of all, then his team-mates, and afterwards the trainer.  When that happens Yaya will be part of the group and he will have the chance to play.
'I cannot accept as a coach every agent when his player doesn't play he goes to the media and speaks. I know how much Dimitri Seluk loves Yaya Toure. If he loves him, show me by apologising to Manchester City for what he did in the papers.  
'I cannot imagine in my day when a player's agent would go to the media and speak against Johan Cruyff. Maybe it's the new era but I'm old generation, and an old generation agent has to make his players his job and the coach his job. Today agents believe they are more than they are. If you have a problem, we can talk. Until he speaks, Yaya isn't going to play.

Taste The Outrage: Donald Trump Jr.'s Tweet Compares Refugees To Skittles




Social media have become home to two things in recent years: memes and public shaming.  
Both came into play Monday night when Donald Trump Jr. tweeted an image of a
bowl of Skittles, comparing Syrian refugees to poisoned candy. "If I 
had a bowl of Skittles and I told you three would kill you, would you 
take a handful?" the meme asks. "That's our Syrian refugee problem."

WATCH: NBC, CNN Deceptively Edit Hillary's Comments On Terror Attacks


The obvious conclusion: Trump shoots from the hip, responding before having all the information, while Clinton is cautious and measured (i.e., presidential). The only problem is that the clip that NBC provided is missing a crucial moment. Just
before she was asked the leading question about Trump's (factual) "bomb" comment, Clinton herself labeled both the incidents in New York and New Jersey "bombings."
CNN's Jake Tapper likewise attempted to push the leftist narrative forward Sunday night in his interview with New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie. Tapper asked Christie about the strong "contrast" between Trump's "bomb" comment and Clinton "wait[ing] hours" before commenting on the incidents. He followed up his statement by showing the deceptively edited clip of her remarks (h/t Trey Sanchez):

Mexican president at U.N.: 'No barrier can stop the movement of people'


The Mexican president defended the positive role played by migrants in the cultures of the countries to which they travel and emphasized that the international community must improve their situation.
-"Migrants symbolize the effort that has been made to move humanity forward," he said, stressing that "movement is an essential part of being human."
-With an eye toward negotiating the global pacts on migrants and refugees that
will take place in the coming years, Peña Nieto said that a focus on human rights must be kept in mind that establishes obligations for countries along with a shared responsibility among countries of origin, transit and destination.
In addition, the Mexican leader said that those documents must recognize the contributions of migrants, contribute to eradicating intolerance, prejudices and racism and strengthen the ability of states to take care of those who arrive at their borders, among other things.

Angelina Jolie has filed for divorce from Brad Pitt


Didn't see this one coming...like what??? According to TMZ, Angelina Jolie has filed for divorce from Brad Pitt and the trigger was a conflict over their six kids. TMZ reports below... 
Jolie filed legal docs Monday citing irreconcilable differences. She's asking for physical custody of the couple's 6 children. She is asking the judge to give Pitt visitation. It's significant...she does not
want Brad to have joint physical custody... only joint legal custody.

Jolie lists the date of separation as Sept. 15, 2016. They married in August, 2014.  They've been together since 2004.

Being Together: Opposites attract or similarities are the glue?

"I met a couple this week while doing a lot of running errands. The husband was a very nice man and his wife was super sweet. They seemed happy and accepting of one another. They have been together for 40+ years. While just shooting the breeze in the store, I learned she was more liberal and he was more conservative. She jokes that she does it just to give him hell. However, with all the
political talk I wonder how many relationships would really last when someone is a 'die-hard' of either side far right or far left.
So this got me thinking, with hearing that most relationship arguments are over finances, how many are over politics? Does this really matter much on the grand scale of relationships? I know there are some real die-hards out there, I have read a lot of comments from so many various places. Some are comical, some scare the hell out of me. I know in my life I have been attracted to the opposite but it never lasted in my case. Now I feel as if I am finally attracting people like-minded to me. I would like to think I can be a compromising person, of course it depends on what. With so many different beliefs in the world from faith to politics to family to work ethic to lifestyle, it is hard to imagine even two people alike! So let's share experience when you were in a relationship that went south due to political differences, or one that went very well due to being more on the same path of political beliefs. Perhaps politics doesn't even play a role in your relationship and it doesn't get discussed at the dinner table (such as sports or religion as the quote goes). Let's keep it nice and clean please!"
