DOJ and FBI announce that there was NOT a noose planted Sunday in Bubba Wallace's garage space at Talladega. Rather, it was a rope that had been there perhaps going back to the fall and not an act of racism...Oh, and for future reference? Just remember that Nikki Haley's instinctive reaction is to back the Leftist pearl clutchers.
Ace has some information that indicates that the "noose" found in Bubba Wallace's bay was just a pull-down rope for the garage door, with a loop for the handle.
Update Tina Fey - who has always struck me as being a singularly unfunny funny woman - gets caught up in the tide of wokeness: "Tina Fey Asks For 30 Rock Episodes Featuring Blackface to Be Removed From All Platforms".
Update II Much more on the noose story from CTH.
It's never really about the noose, or the "attack" (Jessie Smollet's elaborate con) or the "hateful words" (some Tea Party folk, per John Lewis's completely uncorroborated account). It's about what can be squeezed out of the suckers through intimidation and false shaming.
Update III Friend and commenter Gregory says the woke crusade is even having an impact down under.
Update IV Friend and commenter Spiny Norman smokes out some of black (?) activist Shaun King's aliases:
While searching "Top Ten Shaun King Nicknames", I found a few I hadn't see before: "Hueless P Newton", "Chalkus Garvey", "Snow J Simpson", "Stevie Wonderbread".

Nooses at Talledega through the years ...
From reading the CTH link, I see NASCAR is another crew trampling their old fans to get new ones.
Good luck with that.
TV money.
NASCAR's current wimpy corporate management is hearing worrisome timidity from their TV advertisers (the NY ad agencies, anyway), and think they need to "change their image" to "capture" the urban Millennial market, who don't even like cars, let alone the loud, racing kind.
Nestle Australia has announced it will change the names of its Redskins and Chicos sweets.
And I've revived my 2016 campaign against a well known Australian cleaning product.
Both the above statements are true, but only one is funny. I think.
Once they dropped Winston you could see the end coming.
Well, it was the federal government that forced them to, as I recall.
