Trouble Seems To Plague Little Haitian Baby!

Imagine being 28 years old and you looking like you're 40.

Kodak Black might be just as dumb as Pooh Shiesty.

SAMHSA’s National Helpline: 1-800-662-HELP (4357)

SAMHSA’s National Helpline is a free, confidential, 24/7, 365-day-a-year treatment referral and information service (in English and Spanish) for individuals and families facing mental and/or substance use disorders.

Even with a presidential pardon and commuting of his federal sentence, Bill Kapri (neรฉ Dieuson Octave) aka Kodak Black still acts like he one these YNs. He needs to get mental health treatment.

Kodak got a pardon and commuting of his conviction from President Donald J. Trump.

The rapper would endorse him for reelection and in his 2024 comeback.

Kodak was arrested this week on a drug trafficking charge in central Florida in his latest run-in with law enforcement.

The rapper, whose real name is Bill Kapri, was booked into the Orange County Jail on Wednesday on a felony charge of trafficking MDMA, the synthetic drug also known as ecstasy or molly.

Kapri, 28, entered a written plea of not guilty and asked for a jury trial on Thursday. He also waived appearing in person at a future arraignment hearing in state court. His bond was set at $75,000.

Kapri’s arrest followed a police encounter in Orlando in November when officers were called to a neighborhood in Orlando by residents who reported hearing gunshots. Officers encountered a bunch of people hanging out around parked luxury sports utility vehicles, including Kapri, according to a police report.

An officer noticed a white substance on a $100 bill inside a Lamborghini SUV, which smelled of cannabis, giving the officer probable cause to search the vehicle. During the search, the officer found a pink bag containing a plastic bag of MDMA, $37,000 and numerous documents with Kapri’s name on them, the police report said.

The pink bag matched a bag seen in a photo of Kapri that the rapper had posted to his Instagram account. The bag also contained a distinct lighter that also was in the photo, investigators said.

According to the police report, everyone at the scene denied owning the bag, including Kapri, who nevertheless said the money belonged to his business and asked for it back.

Ambrosia Healy and Kevin Young, who represent Kapri at Universal Music Group, didn’t respond to an email seeking comment.

Kapri has faced previous legal issues.

In 2023, police in Plantation, Florida arrested Kapri after finding him asleep at the wheel with white powder around his mouth, officials said. Although authorities said the powder initially tested positive for cocaine, a lab test later revealed it was oxycodone, for which Kapri obtained a prescription.

The arrest was a violation of his probation from an unrelated case, which led to him being locked up in Miami for two months.

Kapri was also arrested in 2022 on charges of trafficking in oxycodone and possession of a controlled substance without a prescription. He was freed on bond with regular drug testing as a condition of his release. Kapri was ordered into drug rehab for 30 days in 2023 after missing a drug test and then testing positive for fentanyl several days later, according to court records.

In January 2021, Trump commuted a three-year federal prison sentence the rapper had for falsifying documents used to buy weapons. Kapri had served about half his sentence.

As Kodak Black, Kapri has sold more than 30 million singles, with massive hits such as “Super Gremlin,” which reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2022.

You Ain't Spider-Man!

The man who shot protesters in Kenosha, Wisconsin was bitten by a Brown Reclusive Spider.

The man who shot protesters when he was in Kenosha, Wisconsin instigating the aftermath of Jacob Blake being shot by the police is being treated after he got biten by a venomous spider.

Midway Wrap Up at the end of the month.

Two of the most common spiders is the Black Widow Spider and the Brown Recluse Spider.

While they have a pain index of 7 out of 10, it is rarely fatal. If you are allergic to insect or arachnids, it is deadly.

Kyle Rittenhouse was a teenager when he killed two men and severely injured another one.

The trial was seen on television. Rittenhouse made a meme of himself, blubbering and tearing up saying the protesters were a threat and he had no choice but to use his firearm.

The jury did not convict him and he walked free. He ended getting praise from Republicans and President Donald J. Trump for being a patriot.

The whole situation broke the state in half. Many Black and Brown Wisconsin residents see this man as the definition of a broken court system. Where white privilege and white tears can sway juries.

Rittenhouse, 23, told his 100,000 followers on X that he fell victim to a brown recluse, posting pictures of himself in a hospital bed strapped to monitors with one close-up shot of the bite mark.

“The spider, like the commies, also thought it was a good idea to come after me while I was armed,” Rittenhouse posted. “He did not survive.”

Rittenhouse appeared to be in good spirits, joking that his only disappointment was that “I’m not Spider-Man now.”

He did not say exactly when or where the spider attack happened.

Rittenhouse’s post, predictably, drew thousands of responses — a mix of support and mockery.

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., was among the first and highest-profile well-wishers, telling Rittenhouse “you got this.”

“Thank you, Senator,” Rittenhouse responded Thursday.

Others came at him with body-shaming ridicule, which the shirtless, stout Rittenhouse didn’t appear to respond to.

Doofus got bitten by dangerous spider.

Rittenhouse became a household name in late summer 2020 after he fatally shot two men and wounded a third during civil unrest in Kenosha, Wisconsin.

The city had been rocked by protests over the police shooting of Jacob Blake two days earlier.

Rittenhouse, then a 17-year-old resident of Antioch, Illinois, went to Kenosha with an AR-15-style rifle and first aid supplies, saying he was there to protect property and render any medical care.

He ended up killing Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber and wounding paramedic Gaige Grosskreutz during the melee.

Rittenhouse, who testified in his own defense, claimed he was acting in self-defense before jurors acquitted him on all five charges connected to the shooting.

Rittenhouse became an overnight folk hero to gun rights advocates, and he has leaned into that fame.

He’s now chief firearms instructor and director of partnerships for Texas Gun Rights, which bills itself as the “largest no-compromise gun rights organization in” the state.

Common in the United States, the Brown Recluse Spider is a small spider no larger than a dime. It often seeks quiet places where human contact is not often. They usually hide inside old shoes, cardboard boxes, closets and sink drains. They often feed on flies, roaches, grasshoppers and crickets.

Brown recluse spiders are usually between 6 and 20 millimetres (0.24 and 0.79 in), but may grow larger. While typically light to medium brown, they range in color from whitish to dark brown or blackish gray. The cephalothorax and abdomen are not necessarily the same color. These spiders usually have markings on the dorsal side of their cephalothorax, with a black line coming from it that looks like a violin with the neck of the violin pointing to the rear of the spider, resulting in the nicknames fiddleback spider, brown fiddler, or violin spider.

Prevent brown recluse bites by reducing clutter in storage areas, sealing home entry points, and shaking out clothes, shoes, and bedding before use. Wear gloves when handling firewood or moving items in attics/basements. Avoid letting blankets or bed skirts touch the floor and keep beds away from walls. 

Key Prevention Strategies
  • Declutter: Remove cardboard boxes, papers, and clothes from floors in basements, attics, and closets, as these are preferred hiding spots.
  • Seal Entry Points: Use caulk to seal cracks in the foundation, walls, and gaps around windows and doors.
  • Inspect Items: Shake out shoes, clothing, and towels before use. Check bedding before climbing into bed.
  • Storage Habits: Use plastic, airtight storage bins instead of cardboard boxes for storing items in storage areas.
  • Wear Protective Gear: Always wear gloves when moving firewood, rocks, or cleaning out dark, undisturbed areas.
  • Home Maintenance: Move firewood piles away from the exterior of the house.
  • Professional Pest Control: Consider reputable pest control services to manage infestations, especially during summer months. 
If Bitten
  • Apply an ice pack directly to the bite to reduce swelling.
  • Seek medical attention immediately and try to safely bring the spider for identification. 
Things to Avoid
  • Do not handle live spiders, even if they appear dead.
  • Do not keep beds pushed directly against walls or with bedding touching the floor.
Can we get the Darwin Award for the most stupidest people on the planet?

You can't fix stupid!

You can't change minds!

You are completely trapped in stupid.

You are wrapped and emboldened in stupid.

Again, why do white people always treat wild animals like they're domesticated? 

I don't get why some of these people believe it's their mission to disrupt the lives of others. 

This is why Republicans are idiots. Democrats are idiots too but at least some of them have the sense to not engage in stupidity. Not saying all Republicans are idiots, but definitely the ones who voted for President Donald J. Trump are.

I've said it before and I stand by what I say: "Wild animals are......well you know!"

Interacting with uncontacted people is dangerous. Well, they are.... you know!"

If you want to be a thrill seeker, you might want to get life insurance.

Fed Watch On L. Louise Lucas! She Calls It BS!

Feds investigate firebrand progressive Virginia lawmaker.

Virginia state lawmaker and progressive agitator Senate Pro Tempe, L. Louise Lucus had her home raided by the FBI this week. The lawmaker calls it a witchhunt in response to her push for Virginia's redistricting referendum which she championed.

She has not been indicted but the claims stem from allegations of corruption. The investigation was opened during the Biden administration and continued into the Trump administration.

The FBI searched the Virginia state Senate leader’s hometown office and her neighboring cannabis shop Wednesday, bringing into public view what two people familiar with the matter told The Associated Press was a corruption investigation.

One of the people said the investigation into Lucas was opened during Democratic former Biden’s administration. Both spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing criminal investigation.

While the probe apparently has spanned administrations of different political parties, Democrats viewed it against a backdrop of recent, politically charged inquiries during President Donald Trump’s tenure. Lucas, who has been a senator for 34 years, was a prominent voice in Virginia’s recent redistricting effort, a Democrat-led initiative to counter Republican redrawing pushed by Trump.

“Today’s actions by federal agents are about far more than one state senator; they are about power and who is allowed to use it on behalf of the people,” Lucas said in an evening statement. “What we saw fits a clear pattern from this administration: when challenged, they try to intimidate and silence the voices of those who stand up to them.”

The FBI said only that it was conducting a court-authorized search in Portsmouth. Such searches require approval from a judge and for investigators to assert that they believe they have identified probable cause of a crime.

Besides the search at Lucas’ office, which houses her disabilities services business and is her political base in Portsmouth, agents in FBI T-shirts also went into the nearby cannabis store, which she opened in 2021. Several entrances to the Cannabis Outlet’s parking lot were blocked by unmarked vehicles with flashing blue lights, as was an entrance to the politician’s office.

By evening, agents were carrying boxes and bags out of the shop’s back door.

Lucas, a prominent backer of legalizing marijuana, has said the store sells legal hemp and CBD products. It has drawn scrutiny from local media amid allegations that some products were mislabeled.

Virginia has legalized pot possession, but retail sales of recreational marijuana remain illegal in the state.

A woman who identified herself as Lucas’ granddaughter, Nicole Bremby, came by after agents left to check on the Cannabis Outlet. She declined to discuss the raids.

“I’ve had better days,” she said. “It’s all good. Everyone is home.”

Virginia Democrats point to other recent prosecutions

State House Speaker Don Scott said he was deeply concerned by the FBI search.

“Right now, there is far more theatrics and speculation than actual information available to the public,” Scott, a Democrat, said in a statement, adding that more facts were needed “before anyone rushes to political conclusions.”

Gov. Abigail Spanberger declined to comment.

Other Virginia Democrats were quick to note that the search comes as the FBI and Justice Department have opened a spate of investigations into perceived adversaries of Trump.

Last week the Justice Department charged former FBI Director James Comey with making a threatening Instagram post against Trump, an accusation that Comey — who for nearly a decade has drawn the president’s ire — has denied. A court dismissed federal prosecutors’ earlier case accusing Comey of lying to Congress.

A separate mortgage fraud case, also ultimately dismissed by a court, targeted Democratic New York Attorney General Letitia James, who brought a major civil fraud lawsuit against Trump and his business. Both she and Comey, a longtime Republican who split from the party in the past decade, denied the charges and said the prosecutions were vindictive.

Such cases “have undermined public confidence” in federal prosecutors in Virginia, Democratic state Attorney General Jay Jones said in a statement.

The FBI and Justice Department have also provoked concerns among Democrats about ongoing election-related investigations, including the seizure by agents of ballots and other information from Fulton County, Georgia.

Lucas has been a vocal leader of Virginia’s redistricting effort, which voters approved last month. A sign urging people to “vote yes” to “stop the MAGA power grab” still hung Wednesday on a fence separating her office’s parking lot from that of the cannabis shop.

Abigail Spanberger will not comment on Lucas raid.

Lucas played a leading role in Virginia redistricting

Amid a national, state-by-state partisan redistricting fight kicked off by Trump’s desire to aid his fellow Republicans, Virginia voters OK’d a Democrat-backed constitutional amendment authorizing new U.S. House districts. The plan could help the party win up to four additional seats.

“We are not going to let anyone tilt the system without a response,” Lucas said after the vote. Trump, meanwhile, denounced the results.

The state Supreme Court let the referendum proceed but has yet to rule on whether the effort is legal. The court is considering an appeal of a lower court judge’s ruling that the amendment is invalid because lawmakers violated procedural requirements.

Voting districts typically are redrawn once a decade, after each census. But Trump last year urged Texas Republicans to redraw House districts to give the GOP an edge in the midterms. California Democrats reciprocated, and redistricting efforts soon cascaded across states.

Lucas, 82, has been a figure in Virginia politics since the 1980s, when she became the first Black woman elected to a city council seat in her native Portsmouth. She now is the first woman and first African American to serve as the Senate’s president pro tempore.

Earlier in life she was the Norfolk Naval Shipyard’s first female shipfitter, according to her biography in the state library. The job entails making, installing and repairing sometimes enormous metal assemblies for vessels.

In recent years she has been the CEO of a Portsmouth business that runs residences, day programs and transportation for intellectually disabled adults.

That Weird Mustache Dude!

Dude, you need a life outside of the internet.

The risk of a civil war is 15%.

As Tennessee Republicans approve their congressional redistricting map which eliminates the district that covers most of Memphis, a majority Black city of 712,000 residents, one notorious agitator roots them on.

Since the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act, Republicans are on a spree to eliminate Democratic leaning districts to hold on to their wretched power.

These things are signaling a civil war.

This is going to be a deadly year for Republicans. Trust me, they're gassing up people to commit violent acts against one another.

The Nashville Metro Police detained the controversial free speech warrior after he sprayed bear repellent into the eyes of people after he got into another racial agitation.

Dalton Eatherly, sit weird mustache having goof ass down before your son loses his father to either the iron college or the morgue. 

There were videos where he used bear mace on a woman after she shoved him. He literally was agitating them by saying racial slurs. He insulted the woman because she is white and is dating a Black person.

His goal to generate attention to how he is being denied free speech.

He want to bag a coin by being a troll.... 

You couldn't make it as a contractor or a damn porn actor. So I guess you got to he got to be a racial agitator for clicks.

Apparently the fool was kicked off Kick after he latest rants. However, he keeps on finding another platform.

Dalton Levi Eatherly, known as Chud The Builder is the Romeo Rose of Clarksville, Tennessee.

You will spot him around metro Nashville harassing Black people for click bait. Still saying racial slurs. Promoting Islamophobia and antisemitism. Still promoting his failed projects. 

Not allowed to own firearms.

Required parental supervision when seeing his child. 

Embarrassing his family.

All for free speech.

Wanting a Black person to harm him so he can collect a coin. His devotion to Karenism is a money making strategy. Not the smartest, but I get it. He desperately trying to point out double standards. He wants to be free to say racial slurs and intimidate people.

While he is free to speak, his relentless harassing and threats of violence are not smart strategy.

Paying over $5.75⁹ for diesel in his huge truck is hurting him. He also is struggling to pay his bills. Cause nothing screams struggle than asking for GiveSendGo requests.

Dalton Eatherly, for all the racial slurs, the MAGAland, the gaslighting and signs of autistic behavior, you are perfectly entitled to speaking your opinions. I am not a doctor but you show signs of asperger's syndrome. 

You can freely walk around Tennessee with your firearm trying to be the tough guy.

You can film yourself instigating or sharing a video of Black people showing grievances.

You can make Sora videos to depict Blacks as whatever you want. 

At the end of the day, you're a nobody. Just a worthless penny in a bank of coins.

They can be assholes all the want. They are obsessed with Black people. 

President Donald J. Trump has not done a damn thing for Black America. In his 2017 to 2021 term and 2025 to present term, all I see is basically a divisive president obsessing over a disgraceful legacy. A president easily manipulated by the elements of white supremacy. Any Black person who embraces his views are entitled to it. But again, don't expect a plate when you decide to crash the cookout.

His policies ain't making my paycheck great. His policies are not certainly making the cost of living decline. His policies only make himself and the elite survive while everyone else is violently turning on one another.

They want us to question the Blackness of Barack Obama, Kamala Harris and Duchess Meghan of Sussex but accept the Blackness of Wesley Hunt, Byron Donalds, Tim Scott, Burgess Owens and John James.

Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas, Nicki Minaj, Waka Flocka Flame, Mike Tyson, Nick Cannon, Ray J, Tristan Thompson, Lil Wayne and every Black media personality riding with Trump are still that word to white men who obsess with us.

They want Blacks to embrace conservatism so they can be hateful bigots to other vulnerable people. 

I mean rappers, athletes and media personalities who back Trump get praise, television appearances and platforms while the ones who oppose the president are in Laura Ingraham's words: "Shut up and dribble."

Our pain is vilified online. The memes of Trayvon Martin, George Floyd, Jacob Blake, Tamir Rice, Eric Garner, Jonathan Crawford III, Breona Taylor, Sandra Bland, Daunte Wright, Sonya Massey, Kyren Lacy, Jordan Neely, Tyre Nichols, Atatiana Jefferson, Rayshard Brooks, Ahmad Abrury, Jayland Walker and Michael Brown are shared through hateful memes and endless banters about how they deserved it.

Yet, the same folks who thought it's funny mocking their deaths are going full crazy on memes mocking Trump, Charlie Kirk, Benjamin Netanyahu and Stephen Miller.

Do you believe these folks are obsessed with Black people?
Yes.
No.
Create your own Polls

Remember, their goals is provoke for clicks and revenue. I know its hard to say this but: 

We must not feed the trolls. 

Because this is what these ghouls want. They want to make Black people angry. 

Since Charlie Kirk, Rush Limbaugh, Colin Flaherty, Andrew Breitbart, Roger Ailes, Paul Harvey and Bob Grant are gone, they need fresh voices.

Sean "Softball" Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, Glenn Beck, Michael Reagan, Bill Cunningham, Megyn Kelly, Michael Savage, Joe Pags, Mark Levin, Laura Ingraham and Neal Boortz are old farts. 

Boomers.

They need young rising faces like Kirk. They need Erika Kirk, Scott Presler, Laura Loomer, Nick Shirley, Tomi Lahren, Riley Gaines, Tim Pool, Benny Johnson, Eric Daughetry, Ben Shapiro and Katie Miller. They need to keep the revenue of rage baiting 
going.

They can incorporate white supremacy with the daily dose of endless distractions.

We need to start the Great Black American Cookout. A gathering of Black leaders and community activists who want to make it about food, culture and activism. And of course, everyone is invited so we want make sure that conservative agitators can pick up a plate.

Just make sure you don't make it about click bait and divisiveness. Y'all can disagree with the Black community but please keep your noses out the business if you ain't looking for plate.

We need to address voter rights, police reform, health and safety, gun violence, ending racial bias in housing and business loans, disspelling anti-immigration rhetoric, anti-LGBTQ rhetoric, ending the perception of Black violence and bringing unity to the Black community. 

Okay, again many Black Americans are not offering sympathy for Kirk.

His rhetoric was divisive towards Black people. He said things about Black women which made it nearly impossible for some sympathy. 

Like I said, his children will take the most blow. Having their father gone is heartbreaking. But to see Erika Kirk confirm the movement continues show no foot off the gas when it comes to political violence.

Erika makes it very hard for people to even show remorse towards her. She is a widow and now has to raise her children by herself. She might find love in the future, but the shock of losing Charlie in such a way has traumatized her.

It's no secret that Republicans think very unfavorably of immigrants, Blacks, Muslims, transgender Americans and progressives.

It is no secret that Republicans love to push freedom while in reality act like the big government nannies.

MAGA rapper Waka Flocka Flame warns Chud to cut out the noise.

It's free speech.

Sharing images of Black women with children by calling them future thugs. Or White women with children who were born from a father of color. They certainly love calling white women traitors for loving outside their race.

They showed us who they are when they harassed HBCUs in the wake of that white nationalist's death.

They showed us who they are when the Supreme Court rolled back long established rulings, laws and achievements to protect the fragile feelings of white privileged Americans.

What do they want to offer us next?

A bunch of memes depicting Black people posing with firearms, eating chicken, watermelons, peanuts or turkey legs. A mene of Black people drinking a 40oz malt liquor or a grape drink.

Or they want to make memes of bearded men expressing their freedoms to wear a dress, heels or makeup.

They certainly love to attack transgender women for looking way better than the women they try to well.... in Trump’s word "pull up to and grab 'em by the...."

Or a meme where a picture of a turban wearing individual posing with a gun or a depiction of an Arab with the decapitated head of a white person.

Republicans, libertarians and conservatives have always been like this. It was never a closed door or a private chat.

They referred to Black people as monkeys and “the watermelon people” and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies and driving them to suicide and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

People, please do not resort to the levels of those who profit off the anger. The anger of right wing Americans in the wake of white nationalist Charlie Kirk's death has sparked a censorship and harassment campaign.

The right wing ain't got the smoke for the shooter, his family and the Utah state government allowing open carry on school campuses. They ain't got the smoke for the people who advocate violence against people perceived as threats to society.

They want to go after the vulnerable. Typical of these folks.

All the while, the rich are getting richer. Israel is still committing a genocide and war crimes from every angle. Russia is pushing further in Ukraine with Lithuania and Poland next on the country's agenda. China is becoming the superpower as they are moving on from exporting goods to the United States for other nations.

China is working on solving problems the United States failed at doing. 

Food prices are increasing. 

We are in endless wars.

General merchandise prices are increasing.

The cost of living is increasing.

Inflation has rising this month.

Unemployment is increasing.

Gasoline prices are increasing.

Wages are stagnant.

Jobs are not satisfying.

Where does the outrage go to?

Random people who don't agree with these folks politics.

Y'all voted for chaos and you got it. Black Americans who didn't vote for President Donald J. Trump are keeping our heads down and not trying to get involved in the noise.

Republicans bank on culture wars as well as divide and conquer. They are worthless even in power. With majorities in Congress, the White House and state governments, they still ruin everything for an imaginary sky deity. They want to push anti-Black policies under guise of Black empowerment through conservatism.

We are not trying to hand the Democrats a free pass either. They need to clean house on Zionists, racists, homophobes and Islamophobes. The Democrats are unpopular too.

Yes, political violence existed before Trump. I mean there were politicial assassinations of presidents, lawmakers and controversial figures. The United States is the most violent country in the world. 

You expect nothing less of this country.

FREEDOM!

People are emboldened to carry out violent acts against individuals who spurned them.

This behavior by supporters of  Trump is a catalyst to a potential civil war. 

Endless chaos.

A decline of power in the United States.

They want you to risk your freedom or your life to protect their right to gas you up to commit unspeakable crimes against one another.

Let me be clear: I do not condone violence towards to politicians, media personalities, animals and property. I am not condemning things any longer. I am getting tired of putting empathy on antipathy.

Keep the Black community out of it. 

1 in 5 Americans believe violence is the only way to solve political problems. Trust me, it is a coming. There is a reckoning with the status quo thanks to Trump.

Capitalism At Its Worst: McDonald's Phases Out Self Service Drink Machines!

Corporations keep effing with us.

When will these motherfuckers ever learn?

The United States is literally in decline. More Americans are going to be eating at home than visiting a fucking fast food restaurant. So expect more closures in a chaotic Trump second term.

President Donald J. Trump, 79 enjoys a Big Mac, large fries, a Diet Coke and apple pie.

It practically runs his entire diet. I mean he does eat other things but he hates the White House dinners. He has to take cholesterol pills, heart pills and biotin. He is pretty obsese.

Me thinks McDonald's is being forced to by the Agriculture and Health and Human Services Secretaries to phase out soda refills. Brooke Rollins and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., are involved. Well I am speculating both theories. They are trying to meddle in American consumer affairs. 

Also they are having an affair.

McDonald’s is quietly ending the era of self-serve soda fountains nationwide.

The shift, years in the making, is part of a broader effort by McDonald’s to modernize its restaurants, reduce labor and maintenance demands, and adapt to changing consumer habits that increasingly favor takeout, delivery and drive-thru service over dining in.

McDonald’s confirmed the change in a statement, saying: "As confirmed in 2023, McDonald’s will be transitioning away from self-serve beverage stations in dining rooms across the U.S. by 2032. The change is being rolled out over 10 years, and is intended to create a consistent experience for both customers and crew across all ordering points, whether that’s McDelivery, the app, kiosk, drive-thru or in-restaurant."

How does it feel to have a Kennedy inside you?

The company plans to complete the transition away from self-serve beverage stations in U.S. dining rooms by 2032, with the changes expected to roll out gradually over the next several years as restaurants are remodeled or updated.

In many locations, drinks are already being prepared behind the counter rather than poured by customers, marking a clear departure from a long-standing self-service model that has been a staple of fast-food dining rooms for decades.

For customers, the change marks the end of a familiar convenience, as self-serve stations have traditionally allowed easy refills and drink customization.

The move also gives McDonald’s greater control over beverage portions, cleanliness and inventory, while cutting maintainance costs for the self-serve machines.

The shift reflects a broader trend across the fast-food industry, where companies are prioritizing speed, efficiency and digital ordering over traditional dine-in experiences.

Remember this publicity stunt. No DoorDash or Uber Eats worker has easy access to the White House. The Republican operative on the left side hustles. The Secret Service cleared her for the delivery.

At the same time, McDonald’s has rolled out an expanded menu featuring new "dirty sodas" and refreshers as consumer demand shifts beyond traditional soft drinks and coffee.

In a statement to FOX Business, McDonald’s signaled the shift, saying: "Our fans’ love for McDonald’s beverages runs deep… Next month, we’re building on that passion with a new era of beverages, featuring a variety of Refreshers and crafted sodas rolling out nationwide."

The company added that it will share more details soon.

Well for the time being, you can visit the competitors or your local gas station. 

McDonald's despite the quarterly earnings and increase in profits has continously raised prices on most of its meals. They are trying to wrangle people with their stupid contests, nostalgic toys, classic McDonaldLand figures and new items.

Captain Planet.

Turner, a brash and outspoken television pioneer who raced yachts, owned huge chunks of the American West and transformed the news business by launching CNN in 1980, has died at age 87.

The network reported Turner died Wednesday, citing a news release from Turner Enterprises.

Turner owned professional sports teams in Atlanta, defended the America’s Cup in yachting in 1977 and donated a stunning $1 billion to United Nations charities. He married three women — most famously actress Jane Fonda — and earned the nicknames “Captain Outrageous” and “The Mouth of the South.”

He once bragged: “If only I had a little humility, I’d be perfect.”

He was slowed in later years by Lewy Body Dementia. Long since out of the television business, he concentrated on philanthropy and his more than 2 million acres of property, including the nation’s largest bison herd.

His garrulous personality sometimes overshadowed a driven, risk-taking business acumen. By the time he sold his Turner Broadcasting System to Time Warner Inc. in a 1996 media megadeal, Turner had turned his late father’s billboard company into a global conglomerate that included seven major cable networks, three professional sports teams and a pair of hit movie studios.

Turner owned a ranch in Montana where he resides.

The creation of CNN

Turner’s signature achievement was creating CNN, the first 24-hour, all-news television network in 1980. At a time news is instantly available at anyone’s fingertips, it’s hard to recall that the idea of letting consumers decide when they choose to learn what’s going on in the world was once revolutionary.

In part, Turner’s own frustration with television news was the instigator. He often worked past 8 p.m., after the ABC, CBS and NBC nightly newscasts had already gone off the air, and was in bed by the time his local stations did their own newscasts at 11 p.m.

He took a chance by starting the operation sometimes derided as the “chicken noodle network” in the early days of cable television, living in an apartment above its Atlanta office.

“I was going to have to hit hard and move incredibly fast and that’s what we did — move so fast that the (broadcast) networks wouldn’t have the time to respond, because they should have done this, not me,” Turner recalled in a 2016 interview with the Academy of Achievement. “But they didn’t have the imagination.”

CNN’s breakthrough moment came during the Gulf War with Iraq in 1991. Most television journalists had fled Baghdad, warned of an imminent American attack. CNN stayed, capturing arresting images of a war’s outbreak, with anti-aircraft tracers streaking across the sky and correspondents flinching from the concussion of bombs.

Turner was promised a continued role in CNN after his company’s sale to Time Warner for $7.3 billion in stock, but was gradually pushed out, much to his regret.

“I made a mistake,” he later said. “The mistake I made was losing control of the company.”

That same year — 1996 — saw the birth of Fox News Channel and arrival of a new dominant mogul in cable news, Rupert Murdoch. Political opinion became the stock in trade of networks like Fox News and MSNBC. Even though CNN built a worldwide news organizations particularly strong online, it struggles to this day with a diminished desire for straighter TV newscasts.

The Mouth of the South. 

Building TBS

Robert Edward Turner III was born Nov. 19, 1938, in Cincinnati. When he was 9, his family moved to Savannah, Georgia, where he grew up. After being expelled from Brown University for sneaking a coed into his room, Turner came to Atlanta to work as an account executive for his domineering father’s billboard company, Turner Advertising.

After his father’s 1963 suicide, Turner took over the company. In 1970, he bought an independent UHF station with a weak signal that didn’t even cover Atlanta.

On Dec. 17, 1976, he began transmitting the station to cable systems around the country via satellite. It became the TBS SuperStation. “It was the start of something bigger than we ever imagined,” Turner said in 1996.

TBS’ motley collection of old movies and “The Andy Griffith Show” reruns was augmented by Turner’s acquisition of baseball’s Atlanta Braves. Perennial doormats, the Braves slowly attracted fans across the nation through their superstation exposure and in the 1980s began declaring themselves “America’s Team.”

Turner, who early on donned a uniform and managed one game, helped open baseball’s free-agent price wars by signing pitcher Andy Messersmith.

In the 1980s, Turner went deeply into debt to buy MGM, a move again greeted with skepticism.

But the acquisition gave his company a huge library of vintage movies that eventually were parlayed into the TNT and Turner Classic Movies networks. His devotion to older movies earned Turner a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2004. He was also criticized for adding color to classic movies like “Casablanca,” which he said he did to make them appealing to a younger audience.

TBS also acquired the Hanna-Barbera animation library, which led to the launch of the Cartoon Network.

“He sees the obvious before most people do,” Bob Wright, former president and CEO of NBC, told the New Yorker in 2001. “We all look at the same picture, but Ted sees what you don’t see. And after he sees it, it becomes obvious to everybody.”

He revealed his ambitions as a younger man: “I used to tell people I wanted to become the world’s greatest sailor, businessman and lover all at the same time.”

Asked to share the secret to his success, he said: “Early to bed, early to rise, work like hell and advertise.”
Turner married actress/activist Jane Fonda in the 1990s before divorcing her. They remained close friends.

Acquiring sports teams and land

For much of his life a partying roustabout who wooed beautiful women with a roguish charm, the lean, mustachioed sportsman married three times. He was married to Fonda from 1991 to 2001. She quit acting while married to Turner, but tired of his philandering and divorced him, although they remained friends.

“He was sexy. He was brilliant. He had 2 million acres by the time I left. It would have been easy to stay,” Fonda said of her relationship with Turner.

Turner had an unexpected friendship with Cuban leader Fidel Castro, bonding over hunting and arguments about politics over rum and cigars. A once bitter rival who compared Fox’s Murdoch to Adolf Hitler, they later reconciled over a mutual concern over the environment.

Turner built a sports empire, at one point owning professional baseball, basketball and hockey teams in Atlanta. He was best remembered at the helm of the Atlanta Braves, turning the doormats into postseason regulars by the 1990s. Their stadium, built for the 1996 Olympics, was named Ted Turner Field. The Braves replaced it in 2016 with a newer stadium north of Atlanta.

Perhaps Turner’s greatest love was for the land. He acquired millions of acres in ranches complete with roaming buffalo and was Nebraska’s largest private landholder. He spoke often of reviving the West’s bison herds, and in 2002 started a restaurant chain serving bison burgers, Ted’s Montana Grill. Researchers at Texas A&M University credited his donation of a few bulls in 2005 with helping increase the genetic diversity of the last herd of southern Plains bison.

He had a net worth of $2.5 billion in 2023, but had dropped off Forbes magazine’s ranking of the 400 richest Americans in 2021.

During a stock market bust, Turner’s net worth went from nearly $10 billion to about $2 billion in two-and-a-half years.

“To put this in perspective, I lost nearly $8 billion in 30 months,” he wrote in his autobiography, “Call Me Ted,” in 2008. “That means that, on average, my net worth dropped by about $67 million “per week,” or nearly $10 million “per day, every day, for two and a half years.”

He had enough time, and money, to devote to such lofty goals as promoting world peace and protecting the environment.

“See, my life is more an adventure than a quest to make money. Adventure is going out and doing something for the pure hell of it,” Turner once said. “You just want to see if you can do it, period. There’s no thought of gain other than your own satisfaction.”

Hoodiana!

Indiana still ranked low among places to live. Republicans keep driving the Hoosier state to the ground.

The Republicans in the state of Indiana pushed out their incumbents for MAGA backed opponents. This is very bad.

President Donald J. Trump was upset over the Indiana state legislature's refusal to redraw maps that eliminated the two Democratic leaning districts in Indianapolis and Hammond, a major city close to Chicago.

A majority of Republican Indiana state senators whose opponents were endorsed by Trump lost on Tuesday, a display of the president’s enduring influence over his party after lawmakers rejected his redistricting plan five months ago.

Of the seven challengers endorsed by Trump, at least five won. One incumbent prevailed and the seventh race was too close to call.

“Big night for MAGA in Indiana,” U.S. Sen. Jim Banks wrote on social media, adding that he was “proud to have helped elect more conservative Republicans to the Indiana State Senate.”

The president’s allies spent at least $8.3 million on races that rarely get much attention from Washington. It’s been a costly and unprecedented intraparty battle that has exacerbated tensions among Republicans ahead of the November midterm elections that will determine control of Congress.

State Sen. Travis Holdman, one of the incumbents to lose his primary, said he was at peace with his defeat. He voted against redistricting and faced more than $1.3 million in attack advertising funded by organizations tied to Banks and Gov. Mike Braun.

“I did what my constituents asked me to do and it cost me my job,” he says. “But that’s OK.”

Holdman warned that a more aggressive style of campaigning was arriving in his state.

“Welcome to D.C. politics in Indiana because this means that’s what’s coming,” he said.

The race that was too close to call was the most expensive of the seven primaries.

The superpacs led by Banks and Braun combined to spend more than $2.2 million on advertising attacking Sen. Spencer Deery, according to the ad-tracking firm AdImpact. Deery spent roughly $815,000 on advertising, according to AdImpact, having only spent a combined $142,000 on the 2022 primary and general election when he was first elected.

Bruan who served in the U.S. senate for two terms easily won to become the governor. 

Banks who served as a U.S. House members for six terms easily won to replace Bruan.

The governor had made remarks about interracial marriage and wanted the U.S. Supreme Court to end the Loving v. Virginia ruling. The Court is expected to take up cases that could repeal the Obergefell v. Hodges decision.

Both are white nationalist who are totally clueless. Indiana's population is rapidly declining and it's unfortunate that the Hoosier state can never succeed. It is part of the Rust Belt alone with its neighboring states Illinois, Michigan, Ohio and Kentucky.

Gov. Mike Braun is an incompetent politician.

Indiana Rejected Trump On Redistricting

Trump began leaning on Republican-led states last year to redraw their congressional maps to make it easier for his party to hold its thin majority in the U.S. House. Although redistricting is normally done once a decade, after a new census, Trump wanted to abandon tradition to gain a political edge.

Texas was the first to follow through, and the White House pressured Indiana to go along too. Vice President JD Vance met with state politicians in Washington and Indianapolis, and Trump weighed in by conference call.

However, Indiana senators rebuffed the effort, one of the president’s first significant political defeats of his second term.

The redistricting fight divided Republicans in Indiana, a state Trump won three times by no less than 16 points. Braun, Banks and organizations such as Turning Point Action have worked alongside Trump to unseat the incumbents.

Jim Bopp, a prominent Indiana attorney who leads a political action committee aligned with Braun, predicted that Trump’s support would carry the day for the challengers.

“Republican voters overwhelmingly support Trump and when they find out Trump has endorsed a particular Senate candidate, they swing their support behind them,” he said.

Voters Had Mixed Views On Trump’s Involvement

In Columbus, Ronda Millig voted for Trump-backed Michelle Davis over redistricting opponent Sen. Greg Walker. Davis won.

“I really believed some of the things I had heard about him,” said Millig, a retiree. “It didn’t seem like he was someone I wanted in office.”

But Milling did not say that Trump’s endorsement was the deciding factor.

“That doesn’t always mean anything,” she said.

Madison Long, who is 28 and a lawyer, who also voted for Walker, criticizing Davis for her ties to Trump.

“She doesn’t have any promises of her own or any agenda of her own. Her goal is to just follow Trump,” Long said. “I find that extremely concerning given the nature of the nationwide politics.”

Sen. Jim Banks (R-IN) is a white nationalist.

Indiana Opposition Came From Constituents, Former Governor

Former Republican Gov. Mitch Daniels, who had stepped away from politics after leaving the governorship in 2015, reemerged to help raise money for targeted incumbents.

The state senators who broke with Trump said they were listening to their constituents who were overwhelmingly against his redistricting proposal. Some said they didn’t like Trump’s aggressive tone in pushing the plan.

“We hate to be told what to do,” said Mike Murphy, a former Republican state representative. “We’re very independent thinking people. So when Donald Trump and his goons come in and try to tell us that we need to redistrict to help his political future, that’s the worst thing you can do.”

Bopp, who supported the Trump-backed challengers, said the primary was a chance for Indiana Republicans to express how important it is to redraw the congressional lines there.

“It’s not a matter of Trump’s power,” Bopp said. “It’s about Republican primary voters who support his agenda and don’t want a Democratic House that will be hugely destructive to the Trump presidency and the country.”

If Republicans were popular, how come much of their policies lead to an increase of our groceries, fuel prices and rent?

How come more Americans are working harder to pay for bills and still not enjoying the benefits of it?

If 2/3 of your paycheck goes to expenses instead of luxury, how come its impossible for millions to live the American Dream?

Do you believe both Republicans and Democrats are not focused on the issues of fixing infrastructure, lowering costs and making things affordable?

Capitalism is definitely in decline. People are tired of watching the politicians and elite enjoy their luxury. 

A civil war is coming.

OH Boy!

Can Amy Acton flip ruby red Ohio?

The Ohio primaries have come to pass.

Republicans pick Vivek Ramaswamy and the Democrats pick Dr. Amy Acton to be the nominees for governor.

Sherrod Brown, the former Ohio Democratic senator is the nominee to run against Sen. Jon Husted (R-OH) which will be considered one of the most expensive races in history.

Ohio the soon to be eighth largest populated state will be a crucial test for Republicans.

The Republicans have forced a redistricting that phases out two congressional districts in their latest attempt to hold on to power.

President Donald J. Trump carried Ohio in 2016, 2020 and 2024. He carried the state for the first time in double digits. Vice President JD Vance is a resident of Cincinnati.

While I have the gubernatorial race as Lean Republican, Ramaswamy's challenge is to win over white voters who see him as a foreigner. Born in Cincinnati to Indian immigrants, he became a tech billionaire at age 29. 

Ramaswamy became an investment partner at a hedge fund, before founding Roivant Sciences in 2014. He also co-founded an investment firm, Strive Asset Management, in 2022.

Ramaswamy largely remained apolitical until 2020, when he supported Donald Trump for the 2020 presidential election. In 2021, Ramaswamy wrote his first book, Woke Inc, and appeared on cable networks arguing against left-wing "woke" policies. He also became an active donor to the Republican Party. Ramaswamy briefly considered running in the 2022 U.S. Senate election in Ohio.

Ramaswamy describes himself as a conservative and an American nationalist. He has criticized environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) and affirmative action; however, Roivant Social Ventures, one of his companies, was working in support of DEI and ESG. He has promoted numerous conspiracy theories and false statements.

In April 2026, Forbes estimated Ramaswamy's net worth to be $2.5 billion; his wealth comes from biotech and financial businesses.

Acton must win over voters who felt that her role in the coronavirus pandemic saved lives not caused a burden. In Ohio, we lost over 64,000 residents. Acton, who was the chief health advisor to outgoing governor Mike DeWine became a national figure with her honest, campy and pretty competent explaining of the deadly pandemic.

Ramaswamy, a MAGA influncer and tech billionaire becomes the Republican nominee. He will face questions about his race, religion and his massive wealth.

She led Ohio's COVID-19 pandemic response and accompanied Governor DeWine during his daily afternoon press conferences throughout the spring of 2020. During the COVID-19 pandemic response, Amy Acton supported temporarily closing bars and restaurants, limiting large gatherings, and closing K-12 schools statewide to combat COVID-19.[4] Prior to and immediately after serving as director of the Ohio Department of Health, she worked at the Columbus Foundation.

In the senate race, Brown is already known. In his three terms, Ohio has lagged in a lot of things. Mainly Ohio continues to be on the decline. He and then senator now Vice President JD Vance allowed Ohio to invest in Intel's superplant. The project is in limbo.

Brown and Vance failed to get adequate funding to the people of East Palestine.

Husted is controversial. He has ties to the First Energy scandal which Ohio Republican rushed to cover up. He also accepted donations from Les Wexner, the executive of L Brands, which is Victoria's Secret. Wexner has ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

I am going to be quite honest.

We are fucked regardless of who wins.

Israel is the biggest problem in Ohio. 

Frank LaRose, the Secretary of State continues to accept the Israeli bonds. 

Republicans allowed their congressional redistricting to happen. Now Republicans despite their unpopular policies could net two seats.

Gas prices are currently averaging in Ohio at $4.89⁹ a gallon.

Will this race be a determination of how the country moves forward?
