Sonya Massey was shot in the head by a police officer who didn’t have on his body camera. The family was told she killed herself and then told someone else killed her. The only way we knew what actually happened is his partner had on his body camera.
Read that again.

The worst part about this #ChiefsParade shooting is not a damn thing is going to happen.
Just thoughts and prayers, a patch on the jersey, or a sticker on the helmet next year.
But nothing will change, and there will be another mass shooting next month.
Sickening.
Here is George Clooney response after Trump accused him of being a "Hollywood elite."
"Here’s the thing: I grew up in Kentucky. I sold insurance door-to-door. I sold ladies’ shoes. I worked at an all-night liquor store. I would buy suits that were too big and too long and cut the bottom of the pants off to make ties so I’d have a tie to go on job interviews. I grew up understanding what it was like to not have health insurance for eight years.
So this idea that I’m somehow the “Hollywood elite” and this guy who takes a shit in a gold toilet is somehow the man of the people is laughable.
People in Hollywood, for the most part, are people from the Midwest who moved to Hollywood to have a career. So this idea of “coastal elites” living in a bubble is ridiculous. Who lives in a bigger bubble?
He lives in a gold tower and has twelve people in his company. He doesn’t run a corporation of hundreds of thousands of people he employs and takes care of. He ran a company of twelve people!
When you direct a film you have seven different unions all wanting different things, you have to find consensus with all of them, and you have to get them moving in the same direction.
He’s never had to do any of that kind of stuff. I just look at it and I laugh when I see him say “Hollywood elite.” Hollywood elite? I don’t have a star on Hollywood Boulevard, Donald Trump has a star on Hollywood Boulevard! Fuck you!"

Your life should be pushing you so hard that you literally like "man WTF am I doing".
If your walking into the day feeling confident n ready, your in your comfort zone.
Be off balance falling forward.
Pay Congress $7.25hr for being public servants and put them on Aetna, for $650 a month, with a $5K deductible and high copays. They can work summers to make ends meet, like most teachers have to.
***Then I wanna know who loves their insurance.

Donald trump had four years to pass an infrastructure bill.
He didn’t.
He had four years to “repeal and replace Obamacare”.
He didn’t.
He had four years to build a wall and make Mexico pay for it.
He didn’t and they didn’t.
He had four years to lower middle class taxes, bring back the coal industry, eliminate the deficit, lower prescription drug prices, revive American manufacturing, protect people with preexisting conditions, end the opioid crisis, drain the swamp & “lock up Hillary Clinton”.
He didn’t do any of that shit.
None of it.
So, how the hell could anyone be dumb enough to think he’d do any of it the next time around?
