The majority have been from middle aged White men targeting younger Muslim women. Armed protesters in Texas showed up to a mosque to intimidate anyone worshipping.

An Indian man in charge of a temple is looking to deny women from access to the temple until a scanner is developed that would notify when a woman is on her period, so that they can tell keep them out. A woman that is physically unable to have sex due to a condition that makes it extremely painful has come forward. Talk about how this would be a deal breaker for most people. A police officer in Florida was fired for going to a death metal concert, getting on the stage, and singing the band’s song, “Let the Killing Begin.” Cenk and Ana don’t agree with the decision to fire him when it had nothing to do with his job.

Vile comments about Syrian refugees. Pentagon falsifying reports on the ISIS fight. Rubio's hidden donors. Koch brothers and WolfPAC. David Vitter. Cenk hosting. Rep Mo Brooks from Alabama says Syrian refugees are looking for a “paid vacation” as opposed to an escape from war and carnage. It appears the Pentagon has been misreporting the success of airstrikes on middle eastern cities. Marco Rubio has hidden donors to his campaign posing as a social welfare group to do so. Marco Rubio is acting like he’s on the side of free and fair elections while his donors are buying him off while staying anonymous. Politico article about how the Koch Brothers have set up a secretive intel operation that spies on their political opponents so that they can reshape public life in America. Cenk warns this spy agency that if they attempt to track Wolf PAC, the favor will be returned. David Vitter has lost the governor race in Louisiana. When he was getting desperate, he ran an ad going after his Democratic opponent blaming the response of the Paris attacks on him. Video of the ad fearmongering with the refugee situation. Another Donald Trump rally ended with his angry mob supporters assaulting a Black Lives Matter protester in Birmingham, Alabama. Videos of other times his supporters assaulted opponents at his rallies, such as one getting spit on, another getting dragged out by the neck while the crowd cheered “USA, USA.” Video of the Alabama rally where the 31 year old Black protester was roughed up. When asked about it, Trump said that the man was so obnoxious that he should’ve been roughed up. A Trump supporter; a business man and Super PAC creator came out in support of the assault. Videos of Robert Kiger telling CNN that Black people have no right to interrupt a Trump rally. After the attacks, Trump tweeted an image with extremely false stats on murder in the country among the races. The origin of the racist meme was from a White Supremacist site. After the CNN reporter was suspended for tweeting that the Statue of Liberty is ashamed over the refugee bill, Glenn Greenwald called out the network on the bias. Video of Greenwald’s debate with Brian Stelter on the subject. Video examples of CNN’s Amanpour and Lemon showing biases against all Muslims in the wake of attacks.
