Fidel Castro Passed Away!

The world is mourning the loss of Cuba's former leader Fidel Castro.

Fidel Castro, the legendary leader in the Caribbean nation of Cuba has passed away at the age of 90. World leaders have sent their condolences to the former Cuban president. Born Fidel Alejandro Castro Ruz, he led Cuba throughout the Cold War. He was icon in Cuba as well as her in the United States.

Here in the United States, I can only imagine how conservatives are screaming for joy knowing an "enemy" of the country is gone.

Castro was the leader of the 1959 Cuban Revolution. He lead a coalition of Cubans to overthrow U.S.-backed dictator Fulgencio Batista. Castro ruled the island nation for nearly 50 years. His supporters say that he was for the people. His detractors said that he was a dictator and cruel despot who suppressed opposition.

He would test the United States by thumbing his finger in the eye of 10 presidents.

In 2006, Castro would face ill health and couldn't lead the nation. He would pass his legacy to his younger brother Raul. Raul Castro announced the news on state television tonight.

Castro spent his final years in seclusion and made some appearances with foreign dignitaries. He would also take to a blog to talk about the world events. The junk food media over here broke into local programming to express their know nothing opinions.

He was born in Cuba. He was upset over the Batista government and how it was cruelly treating the people of Cuba. Castro was aided by guerrilla war strategist Che Guevara. They fought the Cuban leader and defeated him. Castro would become the prime minister of Cuba.

He would criticize the United States after the CIA-lead Bay of Pigs Invasion. He would ban all Americans propeties from the island. That in turn led to the embargo of Cuba. This is still in effect. President Barack Obama eased tensions with Cuba by lifting sanctions against the island.

Castro would spark the Cold War when he said that the United Socialist Soviet Republic (USSR/Soviet Union/Russia) and their nuclear weapons are welcomed in Cuba.

Castro would be sworn in as president of Cuba in 1976.

Castro played a role in the Elian Gonzalez affair. The Cuban government demanded the U.S. to return the boy to his father. The U.S. rightfully so by force. It was the iconic picture of a frightened boy with U.S. Marshals armed pulling him from a closet. The U.S. and Cuba would negotiate a refugee agreement after that.

Throughout the Cold War, Castro was considered a threat to the U.S.

Expect President Barack Obama and his successor, that controversial billionaire/racist/sexist/pussy grabbing/dictator in waiting Donald J. Trump to respond to the news.

Cubans exiles are cheering the death.

The nation of Cuba uses economic Communism. Castro believed that the government should give the land back to the people and to defend the rights of the poor. Some didn't agree to Communism and opposed him. But all threats were quickly stopped. Some middle class Cubans would flee to Florida to settle after Castro threatened imprisonment and death to people who tried to overthrow him.

Love & Guwop!

The Soon to Be Married Couple of East Atlanta. Gucci Mane popped the question to his longtime girlfriend and surprised his fans with a surprise album featuring Lil' Uzi Vert.

Since his release from federal time out, Radric Davis known as the Gucci Mane is now the most sought after rapper. He can celebrate a bunch of success.

He semi retired from the fast food. He lost over 50 lbs. in the federal time out.

Atlantic Records quickly resigned him back to the label to distribute his albums.

His feature on Rae Sremmurd's Black Beatles might give him a Grammy nomination. He released Everybody Looking and Woptober back to back this year.

He working on the release of the East Atlanta Santa 3 mixtape/album.

Now we can eventually see Guwop walking down the aisle soon.

Gucci Mane proposed to his longtime girlfriend Keyshia D'ior. He did it at the Atlanta Hawks game and it threw everyone for a loop.

The Gucci Mane is probably the most busiest rapper in hip-hop. Last week he released an EP with fellow Atlanta rapper Future and now he got another release out this week with Philadelphia rapper Lil' Uzi Vert.



Again Gucci Mane is preparing for collobration albums with Drake, Mike Will Made It and Young Thug.

Is there a possibility that Waka Flocka and Guwop may patch things up?

Pregnant Thief Threatens To Sue JCPenney After Brutal Takedown!

Loss prevention officer was caught on camera detaining a thief. The cameras were rolling when the thief said she was pregnant.

Tampa area woman faces grand theft and resisting arrest after she was caught shoplifting from Brandon Town Center in the unincorporated community of Brandon.

The suspect is innocent until proven guilty. Richards Tiz Morris was detained by a loss prevention officer. The officer had to restrain her. The accomplice started filming and screaming at the officer.

She could face up to a year in the iron college for these charges.

She is telling him that Morris is pregnant and he's placing a chokehold on her.



Now as she is facing some time in the county lockup, Morris decided to lawyer up and threaten a lawsuit against JC Penney, the loss prevention officer and the Hillsborough County Sheriff.for her rough up.

The cellphone footage was shared on social media and it's gotten attention from both sides of the bandwidth.

JC Penny responded to the video. "We take the safety of our customers very seriously and we are working with local authorities to conduct a thorough investigation into the matter."

Morris who has went by the name "Richarda" has geeked other businesses. She has a bid of time for geeking.

Second Round For Tensing!

Murder suspect Ray Tensing will have a retrial.

The city of Cincinnati is preparing for potential unrest. The Hamilton County prosecutor Joe Deters will retry ex-cop Ray Tensing for the murder of Sam DuBose. He blamed the jury's willingness to accused the victim of the shooting. They were more worried about how many baby mamas Sam DuBose had then why did Tensing bucked him without an ounce of remorse.

The last trial was deadlocked. The nearly White jury wasn't willing to sent Tensing to the iron college and it led to mistrial.

Deters said issues of race, DuBose's criminal background and lifestyle (he had 13 kids by at least seven women) "absolutely crept into the jury room" even though Shanahan banned testimony about DuBose's criminal and health records.

Deters said the jury of 10 whites and two blacks was 10-2 in favor of voluntary manslaughter on the third night of deliberations, Friday, Nov. 11. After two hours of deliberations Saturday morning, the 24th and 25th hours over four days, Shanahan decided the jury was hopelessly deadlocked and called it off.

After saying he interviewed half of the jurors, Deters said some were sympathetic to Tensing, who teared up on the witness stand, and were considering punishment, which they shouldn't have done.

"There's no question that issues were being discussed in there that should not have been discussed," Deters said.

Facing pressure Deters had no choice but to reexamine the case against Tensing.

Deters said pressure from DuBose's family, city council, ministers, demonstrators and Black Lives Matter Cincinnati had no influence in his decision to retry Tensing. He said he did what he had promised to do -- meet with his assistant prosecutors, talk to jurors and analyze the "likelihood of success at trial."

Deters is blamed himself for not giving a stronger cross-examination of Tensing and a better presentation in closing arguments.

Federal Judge Tells New Americans To Go Back Home If They Hate Trump!

Federal judge tells newly sworn Americans that if you don't like the fuhrer, then head back home.

What the hell is going on in the country?

I'm hearing that the controversial billionaire/racist/sexist/reality television star who was elected your President of the United States may not pursue charges against his former rival Hillary Clinton.

After all, her emails were the primary issue for his supporters and the junk food media. Even though, those goddamn emails weren't important to me, this became a primary reason to why she lost this election. Her lost sparked furor with Democrats. They're very pissed and plotting revenge on Republicans for being inept.

The Supreme Court is an issue that could be pivotal towards the future of the country. Democrats are hoping that President Barack Obama slip diss the Senate by appointing a nominee without merit.

Inept majority leader Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has placed rules on the senate to block or delay the nomination of Merrick Garland. It's highly unlikely the federal judge will be confirmed.

Now that we have a fuhrer in office, the Court will likely have an appointment and Republicans are willing to fulfill the vacancy.

Federal courts are exhausted with overload of work. There are federal judges wanting to retire but can't because the Senate will not let them or they can't confirm nominees that Obama picked.

And they won't censure or impeach those who follow their bigoted views.

Here's one that gotten attention in the junk food media.

This federal judge presiding over the ceremony of new Americans says if you don't like that Donald J. Trump will be president, go to another country.

"I can assure you that whether you voted for him or you did not vote for him, if you are a citizen of the United States, he is your president," Judge John Primomo said. "He will be your president and if you do not like that, you need to go to another country."

The room at the Institute of Texan Cultures Thursday night was a melting pot, a collection of hopeful faces now bound together under one flag. During the ceremony, the federal judge presiding over the ceremony talked about Donald Trump's election.

He went on to criticize Americans protesters who carry signs saying 'He's not my president,' including some in San Antonio. Primomo lashed out against NFL players who take a knee during the national anthem.

"I detest that, because you can protest things that happen in this country; you have every right to," Judge Primomo said. "You don't do that by offending national symbols like the national anthem and the flag of the United States."

The most hopeful speech of the day came from brand new Americans.

"The essence of Americans is that you have the right to vote and choose [who] to represent you," said Rafael Guerra, a new American born in Mexico.

In an election where women played such a pivotal role, Indian immigrant and new American Vharati Dharwadkar said that women have it better in the U.S. than in her native India.

"The freedom and the importance that ladies get in this country is independence," Dharwadkar said. "She can freely say whatever she has to say. I feel free in this country compared to my country."

Iraqi native Mohammed Al Farradh said that America is still is a beacon of hope for many.

"It is exciting to be an American. I believe that America is bigger than whoever is in office," Farradh said.

Finally. People Magazine "Sexiest Man Alive" Is A Man Of Color!

Dwayne Johnson was named People's Most Sexiest Man Alive. Finally a man of color covers the gossip rag.
Again, we have the controversial billionaire/racist/sexist/reality television star coming in as our next president. And of course, the world is mixed. Donald J. Trump built a reputation of being ruthless and of course he was a tabloid favorite. People Magazine was one of the outlets the president-elect often flaunted to. He also flaunted his ego around a woman. He sexually harassed Natasha Stoynoff while she did a story about him at the Trump Tower (I meant the second White House).

People Magazine has covered this from all angles. Unfortunately it didn't sway the Trump supporters.

It may have gave them reason to get this asshole in the White House.

Now People is going to cover the Trump presidency as best as it can.

Now you know last year, I was on a verbal rant about how People Magazine often picks White actors as the most "Sexiest Man Alive" and ignoring men of color.

Me and S. Baldwin along with many others have often wondered why People was ignoring people of color for their sexiest alive issues.

I swear if they were going to put another washed up White actor as their "Sexiest Man Alive", I was going to join the boycott against the magazine.

For the People's Most beautiful people there were only four women of color. You have Halle Berry, Jennifer Lopez, Queen Bey (Beyonce Knowles-Carter) and Lupita Nyong'o.

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson will grace the cover of People's Most Sexist Man Alive cover for the year 2016. After 20 fucking years, the magazine finally puts the "sexist male" of color on that goddamn magazine.

Johnson is an actor, body builder, WWE wrestler and business mogul. Johnson is born of a Black Canadian father and an Anoa'i Samoan mother. He is a native of Los Angeles and has two children.

Dwayne Johnson has been named People's Sexiest Man Alive, succeeding the British soccer player David Beckham. Previous honorees include Chris Hemsworth (2014), Adam Levine (2013), Channing Tatum (2012), Bradley Cooper (2011) and Ryan Reynolds (2010), among other stars.

NBC's Today announced Johnson had received the title during Tuesday's broadcast.

The actor—who voices the demigod Maui in Disney's Moana, in theaters Nov. 23—was flattered to receive the call. "I said, 'That's awesome.' And then what went through my mind was just how cool and exciting it is," he says. "And then I thought, 'Wow, we've pretty much reached the pinnacle.' I'm not quite too sure where we go from here. I've done it all, this is it."

Johnson is expecting to get some grief from his friends over the title.

"It's coming now. I can just imagine how it's going to be," the former wrestling champion says with a big laugh. "But see, here's the thing: They give me grief, but they all wish. They all wish."

What makes Johnson sexy? "This is the kind of question that gets me into trouble," he jokes. In all seriousness, he says "a sense of humor" is probably the sexiest thing about himself. "And I think probably just not trying to be sexy and just being cool and confident in your movies," the Jumanji actor adds. "I think with a lot of my fans, I've gotten to a very, very cool place where there's a direct line between the man they know off-screen and the man they see on-screen." It doesn't hurt that he's good-looking, either. "It starts with the skin," he says with a laugh.

"We've only got one face," Johnson, 44, adds. "You've got to take care of it. So I exfoliate."

Sharon Jones Passed Away!



In the late thread, we'll pay tribute to soul singer Sharon Jones. We just learned she died of pancreatic cancer. Jones was the leader of the soul group The Dap Kings.

The band announced the tragic news tonight.
Sharon Jones passed away. She was the lead singer of The Dap-Kings.
Jones was born in North Augusta, South Carolina and was the youngest of six children. Her parent gave her motivation. As she was a regular at the church, Sharon would enter talent shows and try out for bands as a background vocalist. While she was dreaming of being a singer, she spent days watching the interns at Rikers Island and being an armored car guard for money loads.

Sharon would get her break in the 1990s. In 1996, she would got a chance to break into the music scene with her 2002 debut Dap Dipping with Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings.

She was nominated for a Grammy in 2014. Sharon and her group's last album Give the People What They Want was a critically acclaimed album.

Cop Who Bucked Philando Castile Served!


Do you honestly believe that a cop could face a conviction given that most of these high profile incidents often go without one?

I won't hold my breathe. Matter of fact, "I can't breathe!"

Too many of these murderers behind a badge get away with this. I am so frustrated with the scenario where a cop can just deadly force if his or her life is in danger.

I wouldn't be surprised that the cop who bucked Philando Castile will have a lawyer demanding to see the criminal history of Philando. I bet you money they're going to cross exam Diamond Reynolds, the woman who livestreamed her boyfriend being shot by this cop.

We're on the first steps of a trial. The indictment. The Minnesota State Police and Ramsey County prosecutors recommended criminal charges against Jeronimo Yanez, the officer from St. Anthony Police Department.

Yanez is innocent until proven guilty by a court of law. If convicted of second degree murder he could face LIFE in the iron college. The reckless discharge of a firearm charge could carry up to 1o years in the iron college.

In July, Yanez stopped Philando's vehicle for an alleged taillight being out. Yanez earlier radioed the dispatchers that he thought the two were involved in a robbery. He  wanted to check IDs. The cop thought Philando had a "wide-set nose".

Yanez asked for Philando's license and registration. Philando said that he was licensed to carry a weapon and had one in his pants pocket.

Diamond said that Yanez shot Philando after he was reaching for his ID. He was shot four times in the arm. He would die of his injuries.
No mugshot of this murderer.
What Yanez is going to use as defense. He's was up to no good at the time excuse. And if he convinces an all White jury that he feared for his life, Yanez walks.

Now this happened around the same time that Alton Sterling was shot and killed by Baton Rouge Police. This inspired two terrorists to ambush officers in Dallas and Baton Rouge.

The number of police/vigilante shootings of unarmed or legally licensed individuals inspired Black Lives Matter. The group has been very vocal about gun crime and police reform. It's often attacked by the alt-right and conservative agitators as fanning the seeds of hate against White people and the cops.

Justice for Philando is trending once again. But will hashtag activism eventually lead to a conviction?

Weezy: Never Heard Of Black Lives Matter!

Exhausted of the fame.

Dwayne Carter is now looking for the New York Times bestsellers list. The rap mogul still feuding with Cash Money Records over the delay of Tha Carter V. He is pretty much in limbo on any projects and he's pretty much exhausted of the rap game.

The rapper formerly known as Lil' Wayne wrote a book chronicling his time in iron college.

Gone Til' November: A Journal of Ricker's Island is a prison memoir. It earned respect.

When he done an interview with the junk food media, he raised eyebrows with his comments about the Black Lives Matter movement.

Lil' Wayne's book is out and it's a good read.
I will let you judge it for yourself.

It's getting major attention on social media. It's been overshadowed by the reality television star and bombastic billionaire becoming the 45th President of the United States.

VOTE!

Donald Trump and Mike Pence.
It's the day of reckoning.

Republicans and Democrats are heading to the polls today. Election Day is here. The two candidates for president are by far the most polarizing. Hillary Clinton, the scourge of the Republican Party is on the verge of becoming the first woman president.

Clinton has proven that she is capable of handling the problems facing America.

Donald Trump unfortunately has opened deep wounds. His ability to tag the system as rigged will linger throughout the years. If he should lose, Trump will blame Clinton, the media and the politicians who opposed his campaign.

The civil war between Republicans will begin.

I know that Rush Limbaugh, Matt Drudge and Sean Hannity will tagged as "three time losers".

They're only consolation prize is years of agitating their ignorant base with kookspiracy theories about Clinton and her policies.

It's voting time.

GO VOTE.

VOTE FOR A BETTER FUTURE.

NJ Woman Suffered Brain Damage From Knuckle Style Chili!

A New Jersey woman fighting for her life after she was served knuckle style chili,

The law is looking for the man who gave a young woman knuckle style chili. He served her hard and now she's fighting for her life.

Emily Rand, a 19 year old woman was served by a man near a party on Rutgers University campus. He served her after an altercation near a fraternity house.

Police said they don't know if Rand was a student at Rutgers.

The attack was recorded on a phone and it was posted on social media. The short clip shows Rand serving a five finger roll. But the man gave her a taste of the knuckle style chill and it laid her out.
The law is looking for the man who served young woman a knuckle style chili.
She was not moving. The person who filmed it didn't bother trying to stop the guy or aid her.

The guy disappears into the nightlife. He's described as having a shorter build and was wearing a gray sweatshirt and a black hat. He may bury evidence or change appearance.

Her aunt Lisa Egan turns to social media to plead to those there to rat the attack out. Emily is on a ventilator and "she's not getting better or responding to treatment."

"This is not a joke! Please pray she makes a full recovery and they catch the scumbag who did this to her," said Egan on Facebook.

Her friend made the most passionate plea for help.







New Brunswick and Rutgers Campus Police are searching for the attacker and stepped up patrol around the campus.

Mind you if this suspect was a shade darker, bet you money, this would be talked about by conservative agitators.

Alt-right figures like the notorious racial arsonist Colin Flaherty would devote his attention to this and drive the narrative about the so-called "Knockout Game."

Nate Silver: Your Guess Is Good As Mine!

Don't expect a blowout for Clinton says Nate Silver.

Going into the last three days of the presidential election. Hillary Clinton has a 60% chance at winning the presidency. A big drop from 85%. Mainly due to James Comey's FBI memo to Republicans over them goddamn emails.

Clinton is confident. She built a good ground game with the GOTV (get out to vote).

Florida, Nevada, Ohio, New Hampshire, North Carolina and Iowa are up for grabs and the Republican nominee Donald Trump needs these states to win the White House.

Nate Silver, the genius of stats is stomped by his own calculations. Fivethirtyeight.com is the best indicator of who's likely going to be president. Today, he's says that it's anybody's game and the Democrats are panicking.

I conclude that Donald Trump has 40% chance at winning the presidency. It's driven the narrative that Trump is anchoring the emails around Hillary Clinton's neck. Also Republicans who were on the fence are "coming home" as Mike Pence puts it.

Silver is being criticized by Huffington Post editor in chief Ryan Grim for allegedly "putting the thumb on the scales."

It sparked a brief feud between the two.

Silver is right. The Democrats should take nothing for granted. It's still toss up. Clinton doesn't need Ohio and Florida to win. She needs to hold on to states she already carrying.

So far Trump has studied the trends and his campaign felt an opportunity is ahead in states like Michigan, Pennsylvania and Minnesota.

Queen Bey's Country!

Beyonce surprise appearance at the CMA.

Beyonce made a surprise appearance at the Country Music Awards to perform a duet with The Dixie Chicks, Wednesday.

The queen of pop and the country music trio started off their set by giving a shout out to Texas. They all grew up in Texas. They collaborated for a remix to Daddy Lessons. The album comes from Lemonade, the visual album.

The audience were on their feet when Queen Bey performed.

Many country music stations refuse to play the song because they don't believe it's a country music song.

The song went viral. Now it's streaming its way to Billboard's top spot in not only mainstream but country.

Many in the audience didn't expect Beyonce to appear at the awards. Brad Paisley confirmed Queen Bey's appearance in the second hour of the show.

Money Talks, Bullsh*t Walks!

Going home broke. Woman sues casino for their error.

One woman in New York is suing a casino after they refuse to payout a nearly $43 million jackpot.

Katrina Bookman thought she had it made. Bookman and her friends go to Resorts World Casino at Aqueduct Racetrack in Queens to play some of the games.

She would play on the Sphinx machine and it hit. It made her night. She took a picture with the prize totalling $42,949,672.76.

Everyone came to the scene. Security detail, casino managers and the director were in attendance.

They escorted her off the floor and was told to come back for the decision.

"I said what did I win? [The manager said], 'You didn't win nothing,'" Bookman recalled.

Well it turns out that the machine made an error. What she actually won $2.25. The New York Lottery and Gaming commission that there was an error in the machine. The jackpot's maximum amount is $6,500 and the prize was voided.

They said that she will be refunded her $2.25 and a free steak dinner.
When Katrina Bookman saw the jackpot she freaked out. The casino saw the jackpot and they refuse to pay out.
Bookman said that she will sue the casino for the maximum payout.

"They win and the house doesn't want to pay out. To me that's unfair," said Bookman's attorney Alan Pika. "The machine takes your money when you lose. It ought to pay it when you win."

The casino acknowledged the machine had an error, it was immediately pulled and fixed soon after.

The casino also said there are notices posted around machines and players should read instruction before playing.

Bookman was hoping to use the money to pay for her son's future business and donate a portion to charity. The lawsuit is pending.

I used to work at a racino in Ohio and I have a bit of knowledge on this one. Many casinos have devices called video lottery terminals (VLT). Most players often refer to them as slot machines.

These machines offer a player a chance at winning a jackpot if they play a minimum or maximum amount of winnings if they hit the right combination. Malfunctions do occur on many games. If that does happen it void all winnings. A tilt or malfunction label is placed on the side of video lottery terminals. They are visible to the player.

Now if the possibility of a jackpot occurs where the player does win more than the maximum amount of the game, the casino does reserve the right to forfeit or cancel the jackpot.

The Cos Goes "Ghost" On His Accusers!

Cosby plays dumb.

The washed up media personality Bill Cosby is on trial for sexual assault. He is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Andrea Constand pressed charges against him and he is facing a minimum of ten in the iron college. He would have to register as a sexual offender for LIFE.

Constand and 57 other women accused the media mogul of drugging their drinks and inappropriately touching them. Some his accusers claimed that he would rape them after they shared a wine together.

Cosby admitted that he put quaaludes in their food and drinks. He denies he rape these women.

Now here's a kicker. Cosby is now "legally blind" and he won't be able to recognize his accusers.

This tactic will likely backfire.

Cosby doesn't want to face his accusers. He often placed the responsibility of legal matters to his high powered attorneys.

Scottie and Larsa Are Enjoying A Banana Split!

Scottie Pippen fouled out with his wife Larsa.

It looks like Scottie Pippen and his wife Larsa are divorcing. The couple been together for 19 years.

His wife was a reality star on the short lived Real Housewives of Miami. 

The two decided it's time to move forward with their lives.

"After careful consideration and 19 years together, Larsa and Scottie have each filed for dissolution of their marriage. Although they are no longer to be married, Larsa remains hopeful that she and Scottie will always do what is best for their 4 beautiful children and jointly raise them with love and respect. She would like to thank everyone for their understanding and kindly ask for privacy from the media during this difficult time of transition for their family."

Scottie married Larsa in 1997. Pippen, 51 and Larsa 42 were spotted together at the New York Fashion Week last month. Their daughter Sophie is a model at the children's fashion show.

TMZ confirms that the NBA great is hiding in Florida after this. 

Pippen was previously married to Karen McCollum. He had a son with her. He also has two other children from other ex-girls.

Pippen was a small forward for the Chicago Bulls. He was part of the "Dream Team" and carries 6 rings as the NBA Champions.

He is good friends with Charles Barkley, Michael Jordan and Karl Malone.

Ciara: It's Not Future's Baby!

Ciara is pregnant.
Multiple reports confirmed that Ciara Wilson is pregnant.

Ciara is a pop singer who is married to Russell Wilson, the quarterback for the Seattle Seahawks.

Two sources close to the pair confirm to E! that the couple is excited to be parents. "Russell would like to have two to three children. They like a big family." The junk food media was on rumor control for the most part, but now they can safely confirm that the singer is expecting their first child together.

The couple married in July and were keeping the baby news under wraps.

Ciara could conceal her bump when she was spotted by the junk food media.

The good news outshines the bad. The feud between the pop singer and her ex is ongoing.

Ciara is the mother of Future (Nayvadius) Zahir Winburn, the son of rapper Future. Ciara was once engaged to the rapper. He was carrying baggage and his ex-girls and baby mamas warned Ciara that he would treat her like a THOT (that hoe over there).

The rapper was being hit for being a negligent parent. He is the father of five children. My second cousin India J had a child with him.

Future was facing a defamation lawsuit from Ciara. It was dropped by Ciara after she said that "she doesn't want his 'dirty' money."

Future often went to social media to express his thoughts on her. "That bitch got control problems."

While the defamation lawsuit is off the table, the child support isn't. Future is going to be owing up $25K a month for his son and probably all his siblings. The judge is also considering Ciara's request to have Future reprimanded for painting her in a "false light".

Future is the most sought after rapper. He's been on a winning streak since he's released three albums within the two years. He's working his new album due out later this year. The single "How It Feel" was a direct diss at Ciara and Russell Wilson.

Ciara landed a modeling gig at IMG and is working on a new album.

Russell Wilson is back on the field.

The pair live in Bellevue, Washington.



Sheltered Life In West Kardashian!

The reality of being a celebrity has Kim Kardashian thinking it's not all that's it's cracked up to be.

It's going to be a quiet birthday for the most talked about reality star in the world. Kim Kardashian-West turns 36 year old today. The celebrity agitator hasn't been on social media since October 2. The Paris robbery really rattled her and it's sure seems like she's heading for a low-key lifestyle.

All her public appearances were cancelled indefinitely.

This bit of drama wasn't reality television. This was actually reality. Kim and her family were appearing at Fashion Week in Paris. Kim and her family were having a good time in Paris and decided to stay at the Hotel de Pourtales. 

While her bodyguard Pascal Duvier was with Kourtney and Kendall, Kim went to bed early.

About 2am, five men on bicycles grabbed a man who worked at the hotel. The man was held at gunpoint and ordered to unlocked the security doors. As he was hit in the head and handcuffed, they go to the room where Kim was staying at.

They forced their way into the room and grabbed Kim out of her bed. They held a gun to her head.

They tied Kim up and she begged them not to kill her. They didn't kill her, they gagged her and thrown her into the bathroom. They shut the door and rummaged through her stuff.

They managed to steal her personal phones, her jewelry all totalling over $10 million. 

They were caught on camera escaping into the darkness. 

Around that time, her husband, rapper/producer Kanye West was performing in New York. He abruptly stopped the show and left for France. After the incident, the family went back to New York under heavy security. Kim decided to skip the Las Vegas B-Day show and Kanye for the time being is still continuing his concert tours. 

CBS news program 60 Minutes decides to air the Kim Kardashian interview in which she openly said that she can handle the pressure of being in the limelight.


Were the thieves enticed by the social media from Kim?

Okay, I am going to be blunt about the social media. I would never post anything valuable online.

I would never let people know that I am leaving for vacation on social media. I would never post any pictures online while I'm gone out of town. 

I would never post pictures of my relationships online.

I am pretty jealous of people who post on social media. I don't want to waste my time looking at that stuff. I have enough issues to worry about.

Flight Attendants Told Black Doctor To Not Aid Sick Passenger!

Dr, Tanuka Cross was told to sit down after she tried to assist an ailing airline passenger. She posted on Facebook about the experience and it went viral. 

A woman who flew on Delta Airlines is none too happy about her experience.

Dr. Tamika Cross was shoved aside by Delta's flight crew after a passenger was having a medical issue.

On a trip from Detroit to Chicago, Cross had told the crew that she's a doctor, but the flight crew ignored her. They believed that she wasn't legitimate.

They told her to sit down or be restrained.

So she hits social media to let the world know how Delta employees react to professionals.

I'm sure many of my fellow young, corporate America working women of color can all understand my frustration when I say I'm sick of being disrespected.

Was on Delta flight DL945 and someone 2 rows in front of me was screaming for help. Her husband was unresponsive. I naturally jumped into Doctor mode as no one else was getting up. Unbuckle my seatbelt and throw my tray table up and as I'm about to stand up, flight attendant says "everyone stay calm, it's just a night terror, he is alright". I continue to watch the scene closely.

A couple mins later he is unresponsive again and the flight attendant yells "call overhead for a physician on board". I raised my hand to grab her attention. She said to me "oh no sweetie put ur hand down, we are looking for actual physicians or nurses or some type of medical personnel, we don't have time to talk to you" I tried to inform her that I was a physician but I was continually cut off by condescending remarks.

Then overhead they paged "any physician on board please press your button". I stare at her as I go to press my button. She said "oh wow you're an actual physician?" I reply yes. She said "let me see your credentials. What type of Doctor are you? Where do you work? Why were you in Detroit?" (Please remember this man is still in need of help and she is blocking my row from even standing up while
Bombarding me with questions).

I respond "OBGYN, work in Houston, in Detroit for a wedding, but believe it or not they DO HAVE doctors in Detroit. Now excuse me so I can help the man in need". Another "seasoned" white male approaches the row and says he is a physician as well. She says to me "thanks for your help but he can help us, and he has his credentials". (Mind you he hasn't shown anything to her. Just showed up and fit the "description of a doctor") I stay seated. Mind blown. Blood boiling. (Man is responding the his questions and is seemingly better now Thank God)

Then this heifer has the nerve to ask for my input on what to do next about 10 mins later. I tell her we need vitals and blood sugar. She comes back to report to me a BP of 80/50 (super low, to my non medical peeps) and they can't find a glucometer. We continue down that pathway of medical work up, but the point is she needed my help and I continued to help despite the choice words I had saved up for her. The patient and his wife weren't the problem, they needed help and we were mid flight.

She came and apologized to me several times and offering me skymiles. I kindly refused. This is going higher than her. I don't want skymiles in exchange for blatant discrimination. Whether this was race, age, gender discrimination, it's not right. She will not get away with this....and I will still get my skymiles....



It sparked #WhatADoctorLooksLike movement on social media. It also sparked discussion about how Black doctors are treated in the general public.

Delta was none too happy about the situation. And of course, conservatives are trying to discredit her story by trying to claim she made it up for attention.

Delta released a statement over this.

Delta continues to investigate a story surfaced by Dr. Tamika Cross in a recent post on Facebook.

We are troubled by any accusations of discrimination and take them very seriously. The experience Dr. Cross has described is not reflective of Delta’s culture or of the values our employees live out every day. We are in the process of conducting a full investigation. We’ve reached out to Dr. Cross to speak with her directly, talked with our crew members and we’re reaching out to customers who were on board to gather as much information as we can.

While there is much we can’t share because our investigation involves confidential personnel matters, we do want to share what we can.

Three medical professionals identified themselves on the flight in question. Only one was able to produce documentation of medical training and that is the doctor who was asked to assist the customer onboard. In addition, paramedics met the flight to assist the customer further.

Flight attendants are trained to collect information from medical volunteers offering to assist with an onboard medical emergency. When an individual’s medical identification isn’t available, they’re instructed to ask questions such as where medical training was received or whether an individual has a business card or other documentation and ultimately to use their best judgment.

Delta's commitment to diversity, inclusion and respect of all of our customers worldwide is rooted deeply in our company’s values and culture. As a global carrier with a diverse workforce, serving a diverse customer base, we are committed to treating all passengers with kindness and respect.
