Seat fillers needed for DNC proceedings tonight should some delegates decide to walk out. Will need to be available for interviews promoting unity within the Democrat party. Will be conducting interviews near the media tent for consideration. Please arrive early as primetime coverage starts at 9PM. http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/tlg/5705466302.html
Contrary to public ignorance, this entire presidential race is about child welfare, or rather the final leg of implementing the privatization scheme to access the Social Security Trust Fund.
You can’t make this stuff up. The Democratic National Convention has now announced its 3rd chairperson in the last 8 hours. According to Wikileaks.org and confirmed by CNN:
US DNC head is now Marcia Fudge who has replaced Donna Brazil for the duration of the Convention #DNCLeak

Earlier today, Debbie Wasserman Shultz was outed as the DNC Chairwoman on the eve of the convention after a weekend that saw her entire office and staff exposed in an embarrassing email dump of the Democratic National Committee, exposing a concerted effort to fraudulently hand the nomination to Hillary Clinton by conspiring to derail any hopes of Bernie Sanders securing the nomination. This lead to Debbie Wasserman Shultz immediately being hired as a chair of the Clinton Campaign.
Shortly after the Wasserman Shultz resignation, CNN released Donna Brazile from her CNN contract so she could fulfill the duties as the DNC Chairperson on an interim basis for the convention in Philadelphia.She was expected to be interim Chairperson until after the elections in November. This lasted about 30 minutes, then all hell broke loose as numerous websites, this one included, published scathing articles showing that Brazile was as deeply involved in the fraudulent activities as Wasserman Shultz was. You can read the Brazile emails here. She called Bernie Sanders “stupid” and threatened to “cuss out his staff”.
Well, Bernie apparently still has some power left and apparently now has used it to force Brazile out and the Democrats have now named a 3rd chairperson.
Marcia Fudge has now been named as the new interim chair.
This morning The Rolling Stones tweeted out a condemning message to Republican presidential Nominee Donald Trump. It came in less than 24 hours after Trump gave his acceptance speech for the official Republican nomination at the RNC, where “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” was played after Donald Trump’s speech.
Here’ s the tweet:
The Rolling Stones do not endorse Donald Trump. You Can't Always Get What You Want was used without the band's permission.

Donald Trump and the Republican National Convention have incurred the wrath of yet another musician.
The George Harrison estate blasted the use of his hit "Here Comes the Sun" Thursday night as Ivanka Trump took the stage.
"The unauthorized use of #HereComestheSun at the #RNCinCLE is offensive & against the wishes of the George Harrison estate," the estate tweeted late Thursday, as the RNC wrapped up in Cleveland.
The estate followed up with another tweet suggesting a more pessimistic song from Harrison's post-Beatles repertoire: "If it had been Beware of Darkness, then we MAY have approved it! #TrumpYourself.
The 90's band Third Eye Blind -- who have hits like "Semi-Charmed Life," "Never Let You Go," and "How's It Going to Be" -- played none of them during a Republican National Convention linked concert last night at Cleveland's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Instead Third Eye Blind lead singer Stephan Jenkins basically taunted the crowd at the event. http://www.pajiba.com/politics/third-eye-blind-played-an-rnc-concert-just-so-they-could-troll-republicans.php
Monday’s Republican convention opened with Donald Trump’s wife Melania’s passionate speech, in which sheplagiarized from First Lady Michelle Obama‘s 2008 convention speech.
After 24 hours of confusion and the campaign’s resistance to admit to plagiarism, it seems America finally has an answer from the Trump campaign confirming it was plagiarism and that a close friend might be responsible.
The New York Times reports Trump’s son-in-law commissioned the speech from speechwriters Matthew Scully and John McConnell. But Ms. Trump rejected almost all of of it, and asked family friend Meredith McIver to help write her speech. McIver is a former ballet dancer and English major, and it is unclear how much she influenced the speech.
CLEVELAND, Ohio — A chunk of Melania Trump's Republican National Convention speech appears to have been lifted from Michelle Obama's address at the 2008 Democratic convention.
Trump said on the TODAY Show that she wrote the speech largely on her own, telling host Matt Lauer that: "I read once over it, and that's all. Because I wrote it…with as little help as possible."
Her emotional address to GOP delegates on Monday night sought to show her husband's softer side, a star turn that quickly drew glowing praise.
Apple has taken a stronger stance than other corporate giants against Trump and his Republican convention by announcing that they will not provide money or technology to Trump's Cleveland self-love fest.
Apple has told Republican leaders it will not provide funding or other support for the party’s 2016 presidential convention, as it’s done in the past, citing Donald Trump’s controversial comments about women, immigrants, and minorities.
Unlike Facebook, Google and Microsoft, which have all said they will provide some support to the GOP event in Cleveland next month, Apple decided against donating technology or cash to the effort, according to two sources familiar with the iPhone maker’s plans.
Senator Bernie Sanders said on Sunday that he would “take our campaign for transforming the Democratic Party into the convention,” refusing to concede the presidential nomination to Hillary Clinton though not explicitly saying he would challenge her for it.
Mrs. Clinton earned enough delegates to clinch the nomination last week, but Mr. Sanders has declined to end his campaign. He has contended that he could persuade enough superdelegates, the party leaders who have overwhelmingly backed Mrs. Clinton, to switch their support to him by arguing that he would be the stronger candidate against Donald J. Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee.
NOTE: THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION FOR SUPERDELEGATES TO VOTE IS JULY 25,2016
The right to vote is part of democracy and is being stripped from the people. #votingrights
Sen. Bernie Sanders is still talking like a guy who's running for president. But frustrated House Democrats — who booed him at one point during a morning meeting — say it's time to stop.
With the Democratic convention just weeks away, Sanders still hasn't endorsed one-time rival Hillary Clinton and dodged questions about when he would during a tense meeting Wednesday morning with House Democrats.
"It was frustrating because he's squandering the movement he built with a self-obsession that was totally on display," said one senior Democrat.
Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol joined a conference call on Tuesday night to encourage Republican delegates to protest on the floor of the convention in a last ditch effort to block Donald Trump from obtaining the party’s nomination. Kristol, who has spearheaded the charge for an independent candidate to enter the race, was the guest speaker on an organizing call of conservatives who are seeking to deny Trump the nomination at the party’s convention in Cleveland next month.
The group of delegates, lawyers, rules experts and political action committees insist that delegates are not bound to any primary or caucus vote, and are looking to pass convention rules that allow them to vote their “conscience.”
