Melania Trump gets booed at drugs speech

US President Donald Trump's wife Melania faced rare boos Tuesday when she gave a speech on the dangers of drug addiction in the east coast city of Baltimore.

First ladies are usually spared the rougher edges of US politics and Melania Trump has been no exception, despite the bruising nature of her husband's presidency.
Boos and shrieking erupted from the audience of mostly middle and high school students when she walked on stage at the Baltimore Youth Summit on Opioid Awareness.

Loud talking continued in the audience as she began her brief speech, in which she wished the children "a healthy and drug-free life." There were more boos, as well as cheers, at the end.

The president provoked a furious backlash in July when he took to Twitter to bash the historic port city of 600,000 people as a "disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess" unfit for humans.

Democratic lawmakers described the provocative attacks as racist while Baltimore Mayor Bernard Young said the remarks were "completely unacceptable."

Remarks 'completely unacceptable'?    or are they true?

What's with people in Baltimore tossing rubbish/litter in the streets?
Poverty is no excuse for being a litterbug.

City should invest in some lawmowers, and cans of paint.

China...taking over the world one company, one farm, one industry, one country at a time?

'I see the future' as a Chinese Australia

Senator Pauline Hanson claims China is seeking to move its citizens en masse to Australia.

Her comments come days after the Chinese Communist Party faced allegations it had assassinated Bo "Nick" Zhao who they attempted to install into Australian Federal parliament.

It was revealed the Australian Federal Police will seek to interview the self-proclaimed former spy Wang Liqiang.

I think China should take over Australia. Keep your useless drug mule surfer chicks from becoming international nuisances.

I too once met a girl in Central Park, but it is not much to remember. What I remember is the time John Wayne killed three men with a carbine as he was falling to the dusty street in Stagecoach, and the time the kitten found Orson Welles in the doorway in The Third Man.

Rudd warns of return of the 'yellow peril'

Former prime minister Kevin Rudd has blasted the coalition's management of the China relationship as self-serving, and warned against a return of the "yellow peril".

Mr Rudd acknowledged managing relations with China had always been difficult, but said recent Liberal [Conservatives] policy has been driven by party politics.
He said the Liberals[Conservatives] had attacked him as a "Manchurian candidate", and did all they could during his time as prime minister to break decades of bipartisanship on China policy.

Someone on her staff head should roll. Her husband is an outloud racist and Black folks have no time for Birther Barbie.

Birther Barbie.  Heh. 

Meanwhile, hubby keeps sticking with his virulently racist advisor....

Quote
  The White House is defending him, saying Miller is opposed to bigotry in all its forms. But most Republicans have been silent.

"Yeah, it's horrible," said Mike Murphy, a Republican strategist who has worked on presidential campaigns for Mitt Romney and John McCain and describes himself as a "never Trumper."

"The Republican Party has been hijacked by Trump into this crude nativist populism and dregs like Miller running wild in positions of power," Murphy said.

Not that long ago, promoting the views of white nationalists would have hurt your career in Washington.

Earlier this year, Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, said in an interview that he wondered why the terms "white nationalist" and "white supremacist" are considered offensive. King was quickly stripped of his committee assignments and rebuked by his colleagues on both sides of the aisle.

And last year, the Trump administration dismissed two low-level staffers for attending or speaking at public events with white nationalists.

But Miller is still there....

Trump's now claiming that he didn't tell Giuliani to go to Ukraine, which is pretty strongly throwing the Mayor under the bus (or trying to, anyway).
