Benjamin Netanyahu soothed us all with his melodious honey voice earlier this week, while at the same time putting the fear of Allah into Iran. Barack Obama and Joe Biden were so intimidated before Bibi even started speaking that they couldn't even muster the courage to attend.
The DOJ has decided that (former) police officer Darren Wilson is innocent of killing Michael Brown for race reasons, six months after a jury decided the same thing. Wilson is now free! in the same way George Zimmerman was freed to live a completely normal and happy life full of opportunity.

The DOJ is planning to bring criminal corruption charges against Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ). In other words, he's being charged for being a politician.
