By Andy Kroll

In a recent interview with the Atlantic, Hillary Clinton went to great lengths to separate herself from her former boss, President Obama, in the realm of foreign policy.

The response from local police has been heavy-handed, with police firing tear gas and rubber bullets at protestors. Meanwhile, communities everywhere have been showing their support for the Ferguson protests. The hacktivist collective Anonymous hacked the Ferguson police and released dispatch tapes from the day of the shooting. Throughout it all, Missouri's governor has stayed under the radar.
