The Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Department of Justice is launching an investigation into last month’s Arizona Democratic primary. Thousands of voters waited for long hours to cast their ballots even while Hillary Clinton was being declared the winner. 100,000 people have signed a petition demanding a revote in Arizona claiming their voting rights were infringed.

Following MoveOn.org's "success" last Friday, George Soros is back on the lips of an increasing number of Americans as Bloomberg reports, the liberal billionaire, whose effort to unseat President George W. Bush in 2004 shattered political spending records, is returning to big-ticket activism after an 11-year hiatus. Soros has spent or committed more than $13 million to support Hillary Clinton and other Democrats this election cycle and has warned Donald Trump (and Ted Cruz) of "consequences" for their words and actions. Welcome to the Oligarchy.
