OPEN THREAD: Make it happen.

AND THE HITS JUST KEEP ON COMING: “We obtained an email sent by [Kyrsten Sinema] among many crazy conspiracies, she accuses the then President Bush of: ‘Putting arsenic in our water.’  ‘Crowning himself King of the World for Life.’ ‘Stealing all of our civil liberties.’”

Additional emails show that Sinema “was behind a protest to free José Padilla, also known as Muhajir Abdullah, who was convicted in federal court of aiding terrorists. Padilla was arrested in Chicago on May 8, 2002, on suspicion of plotting a radiological bomb attack.”

Related: “Population Connection, formerly known as Zero Population Growth, describes itself as ‘America’s voice for population stabilization’ and has said that families should be ‘taxed to the hilt’ for ‘irresponsible breeding.’ Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings show the fringe group’s political arm, Population Connection Action Fund, has donated to six Democratic Senate candidates this election cycle: Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona, Jacky Rosen of Nevada, Tina Smith of Minnesota, Jon Tester of Montana, Sherrod Brown of Ohio and Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin.”

IF YOU CAN HEAR THE WHISTLE, YOU’RE THE DOG: NBC’s John Harwood says that President Donald Tump has added to his secret lexicon of racist dog whistles – the new addition is “mob.”

Well, it’s Democratic operative with a byline John Harwood after he was issued his talking points from 2018’s equivalent to the Journolist, so what did you expect? But how would NBC rate “mob” as a dog whistle up against “golf” and “Chicago,” which were spotted by NBC’s Bletchley Park-level racial decoder equipment in 2012?

(Classical reference in headline.)

SURELY THERE MUST BE A WAY TO DRAG TRUMP INTO THIS: Jerry Wolkowitz, a freelance photographer who prosecutors say was brutally beaten and assaulted because of his race, has died six months after the attack in the parking lot of his apartment.

“The investigation determined that the defendant targeted the victim because of his race,” Swendeman said at the time, adding that Hubbard, who is black, and Wolkowitz, who is white, did not know each other.”
