Well today, Coulter was sued in a New York district court not by the father, Khizr Khan, but    by CNN anchor Fareed Zakaria whom she referenced in her racist tweet.

Zakaria told The Adobo Chronicles that he was suing Coulter for unspecified damages not for mocking his accent but for misspelling his name.

Sarah Palin Wants ‘Hyphen’ Eliminated From Computer Keyboards

imageWASILLA, Alaska (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington Bureau) – Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin today broke her silence over the BlackLivesMatter protests that led to the killing of five police officers in Dallas, Texas this week.

Taking to her Facebook page, Palin says the Black Lives Matter movement is a “farce” and said Americans who hyphenate their racial backgrounds — such as African-Americans and Asian-Americans — “further divide our nation.”

The former vice presidential candidate urged computer manfacturers in the U.S. to eliminate the hyphen from all keyboards as way to unite the country. “If there are no hyphens, then we won’t be seeing any racial divides,” she noted.

Donald Trump Promises Green Cards To Mexicans Who Will Help Build Southern Border Wall

Leave a comment

image.jpegTIJUANA, Mexico (The Adobo Chronicles, San Francisco Bureau) – We already know Donald Trump’s campaign promise to build a wall between Mexico and the U.S. southern border.

The Republican presidential candidate promised that the wall will be big, beautiful, tall and strong. Spanning 1,000 miles, he says it will stem the flow of immigrants bringing drugs and crime.

As far as who’s paying to build the wall, Trump says Mexico will.

Naturally, the Mexican government responded by saying there is no way it is going to pay to build the wall.

So, Trump has a brilliant, alternative idea.

In a campaign stop in San Diego today, near the Tijuana border, Trump announced yet another promise — this time to the citizens of Mexico.

“If elected president, I will ask volunteer Mexican citizens to help build the wall.  In return, every volunteer will be awarded with a U.S. green card, the first step towards their American citizenship.”

The Trump campaign office urged interested Mexican citizens to contact the candidate directly through his Twitter account by sending their names and contact information to @realDonaldTrump.

The deadline to sign up is July 30, 2016.
