Senate Dems Give Warren Leadership of Liberals
Senate Democrats are elevating Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) to a new leadership position on Thursday as Strategic Policy Advisor to the Democratic Policy and Communications Committee. The position will be a liaison to liberal organizations, a source told TPM. “I believe in what the Democrats are fighting for. Wall Street is doing very well. CEOs are bringing in millions more and families all across this country are struggling,” Warren said. “We have to make this government work for the American people and that’s what we’re here to fight for and I am grateful to the leader, I am grateful to the caucus for giving me a chance to be a part of that fight.”
KKK Threatens to Kill Ferguson Protestors
A Missouri chapter of the Ku Klux Klan distributed fliers near Ferguson, Mo. and via social media threatening protestors with the use of “lethal force,” Vice News reported on Thursday. The flier, which was addressed to “the terrorists masquerading as ‘peaceful protestors,'” was circulated by the Traditionalist American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. It alleged that protestors had “awakened a sleeping giant” and claimed to be a warning. “We will use lethal force as provided under Missouri law to defend ourselves,” the flier said. “There will be consequences for your acts of violence against the peaceful, law abiding citizens of Missouri.”
