Hillary is a damn embarrassment.

She needs to just go back into the woods and get lost.
Unless you're con man Roland Martin.
A pure disgrace to the Oval Office. But Susan Sarandon and Jill Stein said he was the same as Hillary Clinton.
Susan Sarandon never said he was the same as Hillary.
I'm so sick of that homophobe Roland Martin.
He loves to bash women too, did you notice?
He's a homophobe who got suspended from CNN for homophobia.
Hillary was an awful candidate.
Her loss is her fault.
No one else is to blame.
This is C.I.'s "Iraq snapshot:"
Thursday, June 1, 2017. Chaos and violence continue, The Mosul Slog continues, the crimes begin to get attention, and much more.
Amanda Marcotte thinks she knows everything. It's the curse of those rejected by love. It's what allows her to ignore Hillary Clinton's long support for the Iraq War, for war on Syria, for war on Libya.
Oh, Amanda, go try to hit up another man for abortion money when you're not sure if he's the father.
It's funny how Iraq mattered to Amanda whens he worked for John Edwards (who apologized for his vote in a column for THE WASHINGTON POST) but now doesn't mean a thing -- funny in a sort of pathetic way but everything about Amanda's pathetic.
She doesn't care about the war built on lies because, again, she's the woman who publicly whined that her boyfriend offered to marry her when she told him she was pregnant and all she wanted was for him to cover half the abortion -- she also confessed that she wasn't sure he was the father. That's trash, that's Amanda.
Day 225 of The Mosul Slog.
The Islamic State seized Mosul in June of 2014.
It's now June of 2017.
Three years later and they've still not been run out of the city.
The current operation began in October of 2016 because the government of Iraq clearly wasn't too concerned about a terrorist group seizing a city as evidenced by their do nothing attitude for over two years.
What's been accomplished in these 225 days?
ALJAZEERA notes:
The UN estimates almost 10,000 people fled from Mosul’s northwest and the Old City every day last week.
More than 750,000 people have been displaced from the city since October.
But it's not easy getting out of Mosul. The Iraqi government told residents to stay in their homes until late April, they never offered safe passage out of Mosul and now they're targeting vehicles. RUDAW reports:
Any motorized vehicles in western Mosul are considered to be a threat and subject to strikes by the US-led international coalition and the Iraqi forces, while authorities have encouraged civilians to leave the war-torn areas by foot in the face of starvation and hunger.
"Iraqi Security Forces transmitted information to residents of West Mosul a week or two ago telling them that, due to ISIS' use of vehicles (both automobiles and motorcycles), moving or static, could be considered a threat," US Col. Ryan Dillon, the spokesperson for the coalition told Rudaw English.
As many as 180,000 people are reportedly hungry and living in miserable conditions, according to the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP).
It's been one nightmare after another including Iraqi forces torturing and killing civilians. James Gordon Meek, Haider Newmani, Brian Ross and Rhonda Schwartz (ABC NEWS) report:

It's been one nightmare after another including Iraqi forces torturing and killing civilians. James Gordon Meek, Haider Newmani, Brian Ross and Rhonda Schwartz (ABC NEWS) report:
In hours of footage captured by Iraqi photojournalist Ali Arkady, licensed by ABC News and broadcast on World News Tonight with David Muir and Nightline last week, officers of an elite Iraqi unit called the Emergency Response Division (E.R.D.) are shown directing the torture and execution of civilians in Mosul late last year. A U.S. military spokesman said that while an investigation of new evidence of atrocities committed by the E.R.D. is warranted, there is no legal reason the U.S. cannot continue to work with the unit.
The unit had already been blacklisted in March 2015 under the Leahy Act, which requires foreign military units to be banned from receiving U.S. military aid if there is "credible information that such unit has committed a gross violation of human rights.” Top American commanders, however, have continued to praise the successes of the E.R.D. and boast of a "fruitful partnership" between the U.S. military and the unit, including coordinating airstrikes on ISIS.
“The photos are sickening. They clearly depict war crimes,” Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), who authored the federal law 20 years ago, said in a statement to ABC News. “That they were brazenly lauded by the unit’s leader suggests that they were far from aberrations. It is my understanding that the United States no longer supports the Iraqi unit involved, but we should insist that the individuals responsible, and particularly the leaders, be prosecuted and appropriately punished. The fact that U.S. military personnel praised the Iraqi unit’s cooperation is deeply disturbing and requires further investigation by the Pentagon.”
