Criticizing the Black Lives Matter movement and Obama has resulted in the unpaid suspension of Seattle Mariner Steve Clevenger.  He is suspended for the remainder of the season. CNN reports:
The Seattle Mariners have suspended Steve Clevenger for the rest of the MLB season after the catcher labeled the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement and President Barack Obama "pathetic" on Twitter Thursday. Clevenger also also [sic] mocked the protests of sports stars kneeling during the US anthem and seemed to suggest all involved in protesting the death of Keith Lamont Scott at the hands of police in Charlotte, North Carolina, should be locked up like "animals. "Black people beating whites when a thug got shot holding a gun by a black officer haha s**t cracks me up! Keep kneeling for the anthem!" Clevenger tweeted Thursday. Another post stated: "BLM is pathetic once again! Obama is pathetic once again! Everyone involved should be locked behind bars like animals."

What a shock. The FBI dumped about 200 pages of its interview notes from the Hillary Clinton email investigation on Friday evening. The interviews include top aide Huma Abedin, Cheryl Mills, and even the Romanian hacker Guccifer. Somehow NO ONE, not a single soul, knew that Hillary used a private email server. A few other bombshells include President Barack Obama using a pseudonym in his emails to Hillary, the fact that Hillary did not know how to use a computer, a low key interview with Mills that does not explain why the FBI gave her immunity, and the fact that NO ONE received any training at the State Department on how to handle classified information or email guidelines. I read the 189 pages and below are the parts that stuck out to me.

The murderer of five people at a Seattle-area shopping mall is still at large, and the FBI has stated that there is no evidence of terrorism in this horrific act. ABC News reports:

The victims were shot in the makeup department at Macy's at Cascade Mall in Burlington, Washington, before 7 p.m. local time, police said. In addition to the four women who died earlier, a male who had sustained life-threatening injuries died at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, several hours after he had been transported there, Sgt. Mark Francis, a public information officer with the Washington State Patrol, announced early Sunday [sic] morning.
The shooter, who has not yet been identified, is still at large, and police are seeking help in locating him.

Heading into the weekend, how about a real rib-tickler to go along with that half-price Happy Hour beverage? On today's With All Due Respect, guest host Donny Deutsch actually said of Hillary Clinton "she does not lie." Hope you didn't spit out that drink! As soon as "does not lie" left Donny's mouth, he had to start semi-backtracking: "well, we've seen instances as far as the email where she was not forthcoming and she actually did lie, but on a day-to-day basis as part of her campaign DNA it's not in there." How ironic of Deutsch to claim that lying is not in Hillary's DNA. The most famous line on Hillary's losing struggle with the truth came from the late, great William Safire, who called Hillary a "congenital liar," i.e., baked into her DNA, Donny.

The Obama administration is working overtime to swear in as many new citizens as possible between now and the election. Critics are alleging that this is nothing more than an effort to create new Democrat voters. FOX News reports:

The military has requested approval to send 500 more troops to Iraq to assist in missions to retake Mosul from the Islamic State. The White House needs to approve the request, but officials promise the troops would not see combat. Instead they would help the Iraqi military coordinate and prepare a mission. ISIS took over Mosul, Iraq's second largest city, in the summer of 2014. Militaries have pushed ISIS out of many areas, but they continue to hold onto Mosul.
