From Yahoo! News (link):

The Late Show With Stephen Colbert took a short hiatus last week to celebrate the Fourth of July, so Stephen didn’t get a chance to address the FBI’s findings regarding Hillary Clinton’s emails.
Colbert felt like he couldn’t trust Hillary anymore, and even though he tried to make excuses for her, the Late Show host had to let her have it in his “Stephen Colbert Takes the Gloves Off” segment.

Stephen hit Hillary with jokes like, “Sec. Clinton, you lie so much that kids are now chanting, ‘Liar, liar, pantsuit on fire’” and “You are so untrustworthy that Beyoncé is working on a concept album about you.”
Colbert rattled off a number of slams about Secretary Clinton being untrustworthy, before naming a few things she’s really bad at, like running for president.
Stephen pointed out that Hillary’s actually kind of lucky, telling her, “You’re so bad at running for president, that the only person you could beat is Donald Trump.”

Mother of Idaho Girl Raped by Iraqi and Sudanese Refugees: Authorities Withholding Police Report from Family
One June 2, she was outside with her daughter when she left for two or three minutes to take a quick bathroom break — and that’s all the time it took for the three perpetrators to grab the little girl, before dragging her into a nearby laundry room, stripping her naked, urinating on her clothes and in her mouth, and filming the attack until stopped by an elderly resident.

But no one will allow her to read the police report or her own daughter’s medical records, she said.

I know it's a long shot, but Johnson is the best candidate by far.

Not even close.
"The world would be a better place if we legalized all drugs." - Gary Johnson.
Terrible idea, terrible candidate, gets traction because people haven't really vetted his hokey policies.

Confirmation bias, if anything that would be Republicans...

How convenient.

At opposites on some very important issues, but like this guy a lot:

(long, but good)

Obviously resubscribed.

Donald Trump once wished for a ‘proper president’ who could save the country. Eventually, he decided he was the perfect person for the job.

Actually I have been following Mr Johnson since his run in the last election. I like most of his policies. And he is a much better candidate that the two front runners. Also, legalizing all drugs would eradicate huge parts of the illegal trade while also giving the government some control over it and the added taxes. Plus, people should have the freedom to choose what to do with their own life. It's not the governments job to tell you how to live, as long as your not infringing on another persons rights to their own choices.

To me it's really simple. If it has a dick then it goes to the men's room and if it's a crack then it goes to the Ladies room. Anything else is BS and only complicates matters

Is this campaign to ban dogs in public because they’re ‘impure’ real?

If you really believe that, then you would also have to believe that, if people are free to become addicted to the drug of their choice, then the rest of us have ZERO obligation to pay for their health care, to pay them unemployment as they become unemployable, and to eliminate the SNAP program, since they are obviously using food money to buy drugs, which is their choice.

Johnsons's policies are, well, childish and stupid, will not work in the real world. They just won't.

America has that issue now with alcohol. Should we pay for health care, unemployment and eliminate programs for alcoholics? Legalizing drugs and gaining control of how people get them and use them would just be the first step. In the long run, this is just a opposing idea. You cannot say that the "war on drugs" has been anything but a complete failure. So why not give an alternate idea at least a chance. Rather than continuing spending money on something that clearly doesn't work. I'm not saying the government did a great job with alcohol, but things now are much better that Prohibition.

The faces of our EU leaders that should be fed to the sharks. On second thoughts, that would probably be a bad idea as the sharks would surely die of blood poisoning
