How Hillary Clinton will go after Bernie Sanders on race

Washington (CNN)Hillary Clinton has been largely hands off when it comes to Bernie Sanders.

But in an interview with a South Carolina Democrat published Monday, the former secretary of state subtly hit her most threatening primary opponent, previewing how she could go after the senator.

The subtle dig came during a July 23 conversation with Jamie Harrison, chairman of the South Carolina Democratic Party, about how to deal with racism in the United States and, particularly, the Black Lives Matter movement that has captured the attention of activists across the country.

“This (movement) is fueled in large measure by young people and it is a particular development in the civil rights movement that deserves our support,” Clinton said. “By that I mean, there are some who say, ‘Well racism is a result of economic inequality.’ I don’t believe that.”

The line hits at the main argument pro-Clinton Democrats and Black Lives Matters activists have used against Sanders: The only way he views race issues is through an economic lens.

Kimmel chokes up on air over Cecil the lion

Jimmy Kimmel weighed in on the Cecil the lion issue during his monologue on Tuesday night and he didn’t hold back.

Sourced through Scoop.it from: www.cnn.com

Did Kimmel choke up or cry when 9 Black people where murdered at church?

 

Kimmel insinuated that the most hated person in America is a rapist rather than a mass-murder.

 

Kimmel is worked up over one Lion being killed, while the U.S. houses millions of humans and animals in abusive conditions and kills humans (police kill more than on person every 28 hours) and factory farms kill millions of animals every year.

 

I’d like him to explain why he was crying. Did he realize he hasn’t fought for the cause of #BlackLivesMatter and #LatinosAreHuman ?
