A man with a history of "honorary" membership in the Klu Klux Klan not only managed to make it on the unofficial ballot to be the Republican nominee for Missouri governor, but may even appear atop the official ballot when GOP voters vote in the primary this August. Those revelations came to light last night when former Missouri Representative Shamed Dogan (R-Ballwin) tweeted out a screenshot showing the unofficial candidate filing list for governor posted to the Secretary of State's website. On it, Darrell Leon McClanahan III's name sits atop more well-known GOP contenders like Mike Kehoe and Jay Ashcroft.
I know people are bored to death after years of infighting over net neutrality.

Downtown dwellers have been treated to the glorious sight of a stunning piece of art in recent weeks, thanks to a phenomenal bit of graffiti work adorning a crumbling parking garage in the heart of the city — and while we know what you're thinking, we gotta claim innocence on this one. No, the tag in question was not painted by a lawless RFT employee — our lawlessness tends to take other forms, on account of the dismal lack of can control plaguing our staff.
