He was arguing in favor of removing wolves from the endangered species list (a good idea IMO) and said that those who opposed doing so were representing districts that had no wolves so they were not aware of wolf problems to livestock and what not. So he joked about introducing wolves to those districts and said something like "it'd help with your homeless problem" or something.

And of course headlines "Congressman under fire for suggesting wolves solve homelessness".

People have said plenty worse about her.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be proof of a pan-Islamic plot and Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand, crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of mentally ill lone wolves who do not represent their professed belief system at all.
The probability of someone secretly participating in homosexual acts is directly proportional to the frequency and loudness of their publicly professed disapproval and/or disgust for homosexuality.
If Donald Trump accuses an individual of malfeasance without evidence, it is almost a certainty either he or someone associated with him has in fact committed that very same malfeasance to a greater degree.

So Keisha Lance Bottoms is the apparent winner in the Atlanta mayoral election. The race was interesting given that her opponent was a white female independent and would have been the first white mayor since the 1970s and the first non Democratic mayor since Reconstruction. There is a definitely a wave of progressive black mayors across the south. We've seen in in Jackson, MS, Birmingham, New Orleans and now Atlanta.
