The women who trolled Bernie Sanders in Seattle were NOT BLM

I just got a post hidden accusing me of anti-BLM/racist statements about the tea party trolls that accosted Bernie Sanders in Seattle last year by a right wing jury here on DU.

Those women were a much trolls as the jurors that hid my post: http://reverbpress.com/politics/black-lives-matter-seattle-protestor-is-a-former-tea-party-palin-fan/

Such bullshit.

LOL: Diner owner whose menu lampoons Obama guilty in welfare fraud case

typical...

SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- The owner of a diner whose menu includes a "Dictator Obama" egg special that comes with a grossly inflated tax has admitted he defrauded the government of more than $23,000 in welfare benefits.

Michael P. Tassone, owner of the American Diner in suburban Liverpool, was sentenced May 5 to a one year conditional discharge after he pleaded guilty to offering a false instrument for filing, a misdemeanor.

Tassone paid $23,354 in restitution to the Onondaga County Department of Social Services as part of the disposition of the five-year-old case, Senior Assistant District Attorney Michael Kasmarek said.

Tassone and his diner were featured in a Fox News story in March because of the unique menu it offers customers.

At the American Diner, you can order a "Dictator Obama/NYS Special (King Cuomo)" plate of eggs and toast for $3.59 plus tax. But the tax on it is $27.99, according to the menu.

Tassone's menu also includes "The Anti-Michelle Obama Don't Tell Me What To Eat Or Feed My Kids Burger."

Tassone's restaurant offers a decidedly Conservative brand of politics along with its breakfast and lunch platters.

The outside of Tassone's restaurant is decorated with "Repeal the SAFE Act" signs, referring to the tough gun control law that New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo pushed through, and "Don't Tread on Me" and American flags. Inside, the decor includes an Uncle Sam statue, Three Stooges photos, and a "Chia Obama" box depicting Obama as a chia plant.

Tassone's menu says "We encourage legal carry on premises" and "We encourage prayer/grace."

"Guys like me are a target. Because I speak the truth," Tassone told syracuse.com on March 9 while explaining his reluctance to be photographed or interviewed.
