A friend of mine-- a wise friend of mine-- told me she thinks Bernie's going to win the primary in a  walk... but will lose to Trumpf, Cruz or Rubio because the Clintons will utterly destroy the Democratic Party, just as their dear friend Trumpf is destroying the Republican Party. Interesting proposition.

Plus: Ferguson's police chief steps down -- this is big news?(As John Oliver said Sunday, "Fuck those fucking assholes")If NYC cops reelect Stinko as their capo in June, they send New Yorkers -- and the world -- a terrible message about how they see the job they're supposed to be doing.by KenIt shouldn't come as news that all over the country demagogic or just plain fascist-minded pols have been not only tolerating but encouraging cops' belief that rather than upholding the law their
