This happened right before you all shut down for the Memorial Day weekend. It comes from Indiana local media. Here are two reports. 13 WTHR Indianapolis Hey, C.J. Spence: we have a video for you:

CHICAGO—It’s May 2015, which means the start of the 2016 presidential campaign season is only a blink away. Already hopefuls are throwing their hats into the ring. So far only one person has mounted a challenge to Hillary Clinton, the presumed Democratic nominee—though why Bernie Sanders, a self-styled democratic socialist and the independent junior senator […]

This Monday I was the moderator on a political roundtable where the hot topic was the 2016 presidential election. The one name that stood out above all the others was Hillary Clinton. According to one of the panelists, political psychologist and television analyst Bart Rossi: Hilary has a winning personality. It’s not just about the politics or policies, […]

This just in from local Florida media. We have no words, except to say this: You go, Jessica Morales, for speaking out and letting the world know that this is 2015, and this just needs to stop. Just watch. The whole issue started via social media (what a surprise): Rather tasteless and racist that Naples […]

In case you aren’t following the latest from the Democratic senate primary race, this past weekend during the state party’s convention in Anaheim, Rep. Loretta Sanchez, one of the candidates running for Barbara Boxer’s seat, made one really ridiculous gesture at a restaurant when talking about a story regarding her outreach to the state’s Indian […]

Before we share the following interview that’s been floating around the Internet for the past few days, we are wondering if Mark Halperin would ever ask a African American candidate a series of questions like the ones he asked Cruz. Let’s be real here for a second: Ted Cruz is of Cuban descent. You might […]

In case you missed it, here’s Episode 21 of REBEL REPORT.

Looks like the White House officially doesn’t give a crap any more. Let’s just Hispander some more and mention tequila almost every minute? And yeah, add a little immigration too? Why not? Just bring it all out today. You can read the transcript here. We won’t say much because @FruittiLoopz already broke it down for […]

If you are a Virgin America Elevate member, you very likely got the following email today: Total #CincodeFallo. And why do ad people feel the need to add an “o” to the end of every flipping word today? Honorable mention goes to Jet Blue:

And the hits keep on coming. Congrats to Madison Social for tonight’s Cinco de Fallo Award. For a previous list of winners, go here and here. You can also follow any new #CincodeFallo winners live on Twitter. And if you see any new winners, tweet us @latinorebels

Earlier this week, a Texas county commissioner decided to write this public Facebook post just hours after the U.S. mainstream media was pushing out images from Baltimore on a constant loop: An email to Latino Rebels yesterday included that screen shot. So we checked it out and discovered that John Gradberg is a Precinct 2 County […]

Earlier today, Latino Rebels received an email from Alex Martínez, a founding member of the Chicago Bulldogs men’s hockey team. In the email, Martinez shared two links from the Bulldogs site. The first one (full story here) reported that on “February 10th, 2015, Bob Moretti who plays for the Ice Bison at the Fox Valley […]

So a few days ago, Robert Downey Jr. said this during a Guardian interview about a comment Oscar-winning director Alejandro González Iñárritu made last year about superhero movies. Looks like we have to play this once again tonight.

Earlier today, we gave our first 2015 #CincoDeFallo Award to American Eagle. Tonight, our next #CincoDeFallo goes to Nylon, after our friends at Remezcla shared the following tweet and wrote more about it here. Facepalm Alert: Nylon is Selling a “Cinco de Mayo” Clothing Collection http://t.co/jGINDQSBry pic.twitter.com/tDOrOJsHps — REMEZCLA (@REMEZCLA) April 27, 2015 And yes, […]

This story from Iowa comes from our friends at HuffPost Latino Voices. Seriously, dude? (The original story was first posted on ThePerryNews.com)

It’s not even May, yet with Cinco de Mayo less than two weeks ago, the #CincoDeFallo Awards are already happening. You would think that after last year, things would change, but come on, you knew that wasn’t going to happen. Case in point… @AEO im not amused w/ your appropriation of MY holiday for profit. […]

The following video, posted two days ago on Facebook, has already gotten over five million views, 74,000 likes and 124,000 shares. It is about 17 seconds long, and it shows a flour tortilla on a record player as “Jarabe Tapatío” (perhaps the most overplayed Mexican song ever) plays on.   What a tortilla sounds like […]

The following video was posted yesterday by the fabulous @Blabbeando. It shows Hipólito Mejía, President of the Dominican Republic from 2000–2004, talking at an event in New Jersey this month. As @Blabbeando writes: Standing before a campaign flag that promises “equality,” Mejía doesn’t mention same-sex marriage but jokes that his campaign handlers wanted him to […]

After facing intense critcism for a series of questions he made towards Chicago mayoral candidate Chuy García Tuesday night during a “Chicago Tonight” candidates debate, WTTW Phil Ponce admitted to columnist John Kass of The Chicago Tribune the he messed up. Here is the lengthy quote Kass published in his column today from a phone […]

UPDATE, April 2, 8:30am ET: Ponce told The Chicago Tribune’s John Kass that he messed up big time. In case you missed this last night from Chicago, here is what WTTW’s Phil Ponce asked Chicago mayoral candidate Chuy García during a “Chicago Tonight” debate. Ponce’s questions even got Mayor Rahm Emanuel to step in and […]

And you thought this was all going away? As reported by Mediaite with additional commentary from America’s Voice, the following is a series of videos showing how certain “patriots” addressed Rep. Luis Gutiérrez at a recent town hall meeting in California. Here is the first video: “This was an event held at USC that was […]
