Instead of using its colossal GOP tax break to hire more employees or raise workers’ wages, Pfizer laid off hundreds of researchers, bought back billions of dollars’ worth of shares, and ended its Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s research.

Arthur Jones — an outspoken Holocaust denier, activist anti-Semite and white supremacist — is poised to become the Republican nominee for an Illinois congressional seat representing parts of Chicago and nearby suburbs.
“Well first of all, I’m running for Congress not the chancellor of Germany. All right. To me the Holocaust is what I said it is: It’s an international extortion racket,” Jones told the Chicago Sun-Times.

Indeed, Jones’ website for his latest congressional run includes a section titled “The ‘Holocaust Racket’” where he calls the genocide carried out by the German Nazi regime and collaborators in other nations “the biggest blackest lie in history.”

https://ca.news.yahoo.com/suspected-poacher-eaten-pride-lions-trying-hunt-141210605.html

A big cat poacher has reportedly been killed and eaten by the pride of lions he was trying to hunt.

The suspected hunter was heard screaming for help as he was mauled and bitten to death by lions in the Ingwelala Private Nature Reserve in Hoespruit, near Phalaborwa in South Africa.

The pride were unhurt and it looks as though they saved themselves from the unfortunate fate of Cecil the Lion and his son Xanda, who were both shot dead in South Africa.

Authorities presume the man was hunting the lions, who left his head almost untouched, after a hunting rifle was found close to what was left of his body.

They knew it would freak people out more to find a head like that. That's cold.

As of Thursday afternoon, the Colorado Department of Corrections website listed the parole eligibility date for Michael T. McFadden as Feb. 2331.

That's no longer accurate, though. On Tuesday, McFadden, 46, who in 2015 was sentenced to at least 316 years in prison for violent sex crimes against children, became a free man because of a technicality.

After his conviction, McFadden appealed, claiming the delays before his trial violated state laws, the Grand Junction Sentinel reported. An appelate court agreed in 2017, KKTV reported, and on Feb. 12, the Colorado Supreme Court declined to hear the appeal, which meant the lower court's ruling would stand.

McFadden also doesn't need to register as a sex offender because his convictions were vacated, the Sentinel reported.

Republican candidate Arthur Jones, a Holocaust denier who has been disavowed by his own party, will be the GOP's nominee in a suburban Chicago congressional district after he ran in Tuesday's primary unopposed.

Jones's campaign website contains a section called "The Holocaust Racket" in which he argues that there is "no proof such a so-called 'Holocaust' ever took place anywhere in Europe against the Jews" and that Jews are "directly responsible for the murder of at least 300 million people."

Jones in February told the Chicago Sun-Times that he's a former leader of the American Nazi Party.

The state GOP affirmed its belief in the “traditional marriage of a natural man and a natural woman”. They also urged Texas Governor Greg Abbott to reject the Supreme Court’s 2015 ruling legalising same-sex marriage.

But it gets worse.
The Texas GOP stated that they "oppose all efforts to validate transgender identity".

We call upon our legislature to enact laws prohibiting the use of hormones before the age of 18 in an attempt to change gender. We believe it should be illegal to remove healthy body parts in minors in an effort to try to transition to the opposite sex.

We call on the Texas Legislature to pass legislation to protect privacy in public schools and government buildings as allowed by Title IX of the Civil Rights Act, by ensuring multi-use facilities, including showers, changing rooms, and bathrooms, are designated for and used only by persons based on the person’s biological sex

Is it wrong of me to wish somebody would pull a gun on these white bread shitheads who think their weekly time at the range is more important than a kid's life?

After signing a bill and testing out a few guns at a shooting range Friday, Gov. Greg Abbott held up his bullet-riddled target sheet and joked, "I'm gonna carry this around in case I see any reporters."

With his overall arrogance and recent peddling of racist pseudoscience, I think he fits in quite nicely. I'm embarrassed I ever liked him.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't he write an article that defended profiling Muslims?

I know people got upset that he had Charles Murray on his podcast because of the issue surrounding The Bell Curve but lots of podcasts host controversial figures, Rogan especially for that matter.

Pleased to say I have no opinion on Joe Rogan, nor do I plan on developing one.

Rogan's a piece of shit and has been for a long time but he's been getting more exposed lately.

I'm not convinced he's a piece of shit, I think he likes to stir the pot more then anything. The fact that he's given people like Shapiro, Milo and Gavin McInnes a soapbox their voices isn't ideal but I don't know if it's an indictment of Joe personally. Those same people have all done much more high-profile shows then his podcast.
