Kendrick Lamar Meets Obama!

President Barack Obama address gun violence with hip-hop star Kendrick Lamar.

The 11 time Grammy nominated rapper/singer Kendrick Lamar got an opportunity to meet President Barack Obama this weekend.

The Compton rapper has been very focused on politics and hasn't endorsed any political candidate for president. He heads to the White House to discuss issues involving gun violence, Black empowerment and the president's favorite song off his platinum selling album.

If these walls could talk...!

"I look at where I'm at today and realize that most of my success is owed to the mentors that was in my life," Lamar says at the opening, playing basketball with a young kid.

Kendrick Lamar and Terry Crews "Hit The Quan" in the "These Walls" video.

"I sat down with President Barack Obama and we shared the same views. Topics concerning the inner cities, the problems, the solutions, and furthermore embracing the youth, both being aware that mentoring saves lives."

To Pimp a Butterfly album is a smash. The rapper released the album in February 2015, and it spawned the hits, "i (Love Myself)", "Alright", and "These Walls".

The president admits that he's a fan of hip-hop and he enjoyed the album. His favorite song off the album was "How Much a Dollar Cost".



Last year, Geraldo Rivera went on this rant about Kendrick Lamar being anti-White and anti-cop with his song.

"This is why I say that hip-hop has done more damage to young African-Americans than racism in recent years. This is exactly the wrong message. And then to conflate what happened in the church in Charleston, South Carolina with the tragic incidents involving excessive use of force by cops is to equate that racist killer with these cops. It's so wrong. It’s so counterproductive. It gives exactly the wrong message." said the agitator.

The rapper responded back to the criticism.

"How can you take a song that's about hope and turn it into hatred?" he said. "The message, the overall message [of  'Alright'], is, 'We gon' be alright.' It's not a message of  'I want to kill people.'"

World News Today congratulates Kendrick Lamar on his success.

"Whiny" Paul Likely On His Way Out!

Paul boycotts the Republican debate. Many figure that this could be the end of the road for him.

The Kentucky senator will eventually bow out soon. Rand Paul is pretty upset. He's having a hissy fit. He failed to make the cut on the main stage. He and Carly Fiorina will head to the kiddie table. The right wing business network have announced who's going to participate in the first debate of the year.

Donald Trump, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), Ben Carson, Chris Christie, Jeb Bush and John Kasich are going to be on stage.

Rand Paul, Carly Fiorina, Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum are heading to the kiddie table.

Paul declared that he will not participate with the "little people" at the kiddie table.

"I'll be taking my campaign directly to New Hampshire and Iowa. I'm not going to be in South Carolina," Paul said during an interview with CNN's Wolf Blitzer. "I think it's a mistake to try to exclude me from the national debate."

This could be the end of the road for the libertarian-leaning Republican.

Paul faces a possible mutiny from the Republicans. He has declared his intentions on running for U.S. Senate as well as Republican nominee. In Kentucky, he allowed to run for president as well as senate.

Rubio declared he is retiring from the senate. In Florida, you can't appear twice on a ballot.

Trump knocked Cruz, Rubio, Paul and Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) for being senators who have no accomplishments. He said they're part of the ineptness that created his huge lead.

Rubio Hot On Their Heels!

Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio getting slammed for wearing women's boots.

The Florida senator is in a make or break campaign. As he is retiring from the U.S. Senate, Marco Rubio is hoping to become the Republican nominee in this bitter race against front runner Donald Trump.

Trump and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) are getting the most attention and it's smoothing out the remaining candidates in the race.

Rubio and New Jersey governor Chris Christie are giving up on Iowa and focusing on New Hampshire and Nevada. They need a strong victory in order to continue on.

Unfortunately Republican operatives are working behind the scenes to stop Rubio, Cruz and Trump.

They fear that these candidates would spell turmoil at the national convention.

Trump is by far the most concerning to the Republican establishment. They believe his rhetoric could cost them an election. Trump and Cruz (also Ben Carson and Marco Rubio) would turn off Blacks, Hispanics, Muslims, moderates and independents.

Carly Fiorina welcomes Marco Rubio to her boots and heels.

So far, many Republicans are zeroing in on the fact that Rubio has missed 60% of his senate votes since he's declared his intentions to run. Rubio has dismissed theses accusations by saying that he doesn't want to be in the senate no more. Many are calling for him to resign.

He makes a salary of $174,000.

But what really got him is the fact he wore women's boots.

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), Carly Fiorina, and others mocked Rubio for wearing them.

Fiorina offer Rubio a pair of her boots and heels for him.

Rubio says "who cares!"

What's more important! The direction of the country under Barack Obama (and Hillary Clinton) or my boots?

Rubio slammed Sean Penn for doing an interview with Joaquin "El Capo" Guzman.

The junk food media zoomed in on his boots with a high heel. They never seen a presidential candidate wearing high heel boots before. Matter of fact, they were mocking him.

The actual shoes are Cuban heel boots. Men wore shoes like that.

Mike Myers, who played Austin Powers wore the shoes.

A Truly Horrific Rape Crime! Not A Race Crime!

New York teens are accused of a gang rape.

The young men were cleared of the accusations.

New York mayor Bill de Blasio condemned the suspects in an alleged gang rape of a woman in Brooklyn. The incident happened over the weekend. Surveillance cameras showed a group of teens who entered a store. They were sought after when a woman was attacked at a nearby playground.

Police said Sunday two teenagers surrendered and two were apprehended.

Charges were pending against a 14-year-old, 17-year-old and two 15-year-olds. A fifth suspect is still being sought.

Authorities said the woman was accosted just after 9 p.m. Thursday as she and her father walked inside Osborn Playground in the Brownsville section of Brooklyn.

Police said there were five suspects, and one pointed a gun at the father and told him to leave. Each man raped the woman, police said. The father returned with two police officers, but the attackers fled.

The woman was treated at Kings County Hospital and released.

The suspects names weren't released to the press. Unless they're being charged as adults, they're going to be held as juveniles. They are innocent until proven guilty.

Rape automatically assures the suspects at least 20 years in the iron college with a TIER III status.

The gun crime charge in New York assures automatically 20 years in the iron college.

The suspects were sought by the NYPD in gang rape of a woman.

The kidnapping charge assures automatically 20 years in the iron college.

If charged as adults, these suspects could face 60 years in the iron college.

Racial extremist and noted asshat Colin Flaherty is fixated on BLACK ON WHATEVER CRIME.

His whole life has been devoted to pointing out criminal behavior by Blacks.

He wrote the book White Girl Bleeds A Lot to detail incidents in which the junk food media ignores the criminal acts caused by Black suspects. He enjoys making every criminal act committed by a Black person a "race issue".

Flaherty is a notorious racial agitator. He owes his success to the White extremists who view his blog and YouTube website. He was fired out the cannon by his radio station because of his obsession with this stuff.

The conservative Craigslist is part of the formula that drives agitators such as Flaherty.

BREAKING: David Bowie Passed Away!

David Bowie passed away.

The flamboyant iconic rocker passed away says his publicist. The news hit social media overnight.

He died yesterday after fighting a battle with cancer. Bowie's family was there in presence.

Born David Robert Jones in Brixton, South London, he scored his first hit song "Space Oddity" and secured an enduring fanbase with his albums "The Man Who Sold the World and "Hunky Dory".

He created the androgynous Ziggy Stardust, and it became his biggest success. He is a pioneer of the "glam rock" genre.

David Bowie married Iman in 1992.

Bowie is credited as a producer, writer, and actor.

Bowie appeared in several movies and television. He was featured in the "The Man Who Fell To Earth", "Basquiat", "The Prestige" and the cult classic movie "Labyrinth."

He played in the Jareth the Goblin King in the dark fantasy movie.

Bowie was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997 and given the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2006. In 1997, he celebrated his 50th birthday playing at sold out show at New York's Madison Square Garden alongside fellow rockers The Foo Fighters, Bill Corgan, Lou Reed, Robert Smith and Frank Black.

In 2004, the musician suffered chest pains while performing at a festival in Germany and collapsed backstage. While Bowie initially thought he pinched a nerve in his shoulder, the pain was later diagnosed as a clogged coronary artery and it required emergency heart surgery.

Some people were concerned about his health overtime. Some people spotted the rocker in New York public a "pale shadow of his former self".

He released the single "We Are We Now" in 2013. Some saw the song as subliminal for ailing health.

His longtime producer Tony Visconti denied that Bowie had Alzheimer's disease.

His 25th and possibly final album Blackstar was just released this month. Additionally the musical "Lazarus" which he co-wrote with playwright Edna Walsh and features old and new Bowie songs, open in December to positive reviews. It was earned bragging rights as one the best Off Broadway shows ever, says the New York Times.

The Huffington Post confirmed the news today.

David Bowie was married model and actress Iman. They have a daughter named Alexandra Zahra Jones. His son Duncan Jones was born through his first marriage to Mary Angela Barnett.

World News Today send our condolences to the family of David Bowie.

Thai Dye!

Yikes. That's not cool..

BANGKOK (AP) — A Thai cosmetics company quickly pulled a video in which an actress wears blackface and promotes a skin-whitener with the slogan: "You just need to be white to win." The retraction did little, however, to stem a debate the ad ignited about the regularity of racist advertisements in the Southeast Asian country.

The online ad for the new product called "Snowz" featured porcelain-skinned Thai movie star Cris Horwang talking about being an aging actress in a competitive industry.

"If I stopped looking after myself, everything that I have worked for -- all the investment I have made to keep myself white -- would disappear," says the 35-year-old actress. "New stars would replace me, I would fade away."

As she speaks, a smiling, younger woman enters the picture and Cris' own image darkens to charcoal black. A male voice says, "You just need to be white to win."

A tirade of criticism erupted after the video was launched online Thursday. Online commentators labeled the ad as racist and ignorant, while some heaped criticism on the actress for accepting the job.

Others called it a strategic way to attract wide attention and boost sales.

"Ewwwwwww," was the reaction of 28-year-old Jutamas Tritaruyanon, one of many to post their disapproval on Facebook.

"This ad is so obviously racist and another attempt to brainwash Thai women," Jutamas, a Bangkok-based office worker, told AP. "They're saying that being dark is ugly. It's a narrow-minded and disgusting attitude."

The Thai cosmetics company Seoul Secret issued a "heartfelt apology" in a statement Friday saying it had pulled the video clip and related advertisements.

"Our company did not have any intention to convey discriminatory or racist messages," the statement posted on its Facebook page said. "What we intended to convey was that self-improvement in terms of personality, appearance, skills and professionalism is crucial."

The ad is hardly the first to use racial stereotypes in Thailand, where beauty is often characterized as fair and delicate. Darker skin is often associated with rural lower-class Thais, and the country has an enormous industry in skin-whitening products and cosmetic clinics to help customers emulate the porcelain complexions of the Bangkok elite.

TV commercials for skin-whitening products regularly promote the idea that white is beautiful.

In 2013, the Dunkin' Donuts franchise in Thailand used a female model in blackface makeup to promote a chocolate doughnut. The company's CEO in Thailand initially dismissed complaints about racism, but the U.S. parent company quickly apologized and pulled the ad.

An herbal Thai toothpaste says its dark-colored product "is black, but it's good." A longtime Thai brand of household mops and dustpans called "Black Man" uses a logo with a smiling black man in a tuxedo and bow tie.

Tidbits!

Trump's staff throws out a woman who did a silent protest.

I've been down with the stomach flu and I'm getting some needed rest. While I was resting I found out some things while I was in the bed.

I realized that food to settle your stomach includes water, Gatorade, crackers, soup and apple sauce.

Also I heard that it could take up to 10 days before you can actually feel better.

I ate a sandwich from my job and I guess it was the thing that got me.

But as I am resting, I want to get a few tidbits out the way.

Donald Trump threw out a Muslim woman at one of his events. She was doing a silent protest and the supporters of the presidential candidate were shouting racial slurs at her.

Ted Cruz, the Texas senator running for president will not support a special force to remove immigrants living here without documentation. He also did a document drop. He showed his legal birth certificate. The racist right isn't too keen on Cruz. Even though, Cruz share a portion of their views, they're not hip to a Canadian-born American lawmaker running for president.

John McCain, the Arizona senator and failed 2008 presidential candidate may have the toughest primary fight ahead of him. An insurgent candidate is leading in early polls.

Powerball has went into historical feats. The Multi-State Lottery Association Game is $1.3 billion for Wednesday night's drawing. It's going to be one of the largest jackpots in U.S. history. The game is played in 44 states, DC, the U.S. territories of Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Sean Penn is facing questioning from the U.S. and Mexican authorities. He managed to score a talk with the world's most dangerous drug lord. El Chapo was busted over the weekend and it was revealed that his interview with Penn gave the law the break they needed.

Tonya Couch, the mother of Ethan Couch is heading to Texas to face criminal charges for harboring a federal fugitive. She is being held on $1 million get out free card. She could face up to 10 years for this charge. She is innocent until proven guilty. Ethan Couch is still in Mexico facing an extradition hearing.

Cop Dodged And Daesh'd!

Philadelphia Police nabbed man who tried to shoot up an officer. He claimed that he's devoted to the Islamic State.

Philadelphia Police are hailing a fellow officer for his bravery. He managed to dodge the grim reaper on Friday morning. A man who claims support to the Islamic State ran up on a lawman in an undercover vehicle. He let 13 slugs fly into the cruiser.

The officer returned fire.

Edward Archer is being treated for his injuries along with the officer. Archer will be charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

Man ambushes the lawman.

Police Commissioner Richard Ross echoed the statement at a news conference on Friday, saying that Archer confessed to the shooting "in the name of Islam." But Mayor Jim Kenney told ABC-6 that the attack had nothing to do with "being a Muslim or the Islamic faith," and everything to do with mental illness.

Archer's mother told Philly.com that her son had been hearing voices, and Ross said investigators are not yet sure whether he was truly radicalized. Late Friday, a U.S. Muslim advocacy group told Reuters that Archer didn't appear to be a mosque-going Muslim.

"At this hour, it does not appear that he was an observant or mosque-going Muslim" in the local community, said Jacob Bender, executive director of the Philadelphia Chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

The officer, identified as 33-year-old Jesse Hartnett, was sitting in his patrol car around 11:30 p.m. at 60th and Spruce Streets when a gunman fired nearly a dozen shots through the driver’s side of the car.

Jesse Hartnett survived a point blank shooting by nutjob.

“When you look at the video, this is one of the scariest things I’ve ever seen,” Commissioner Ross said. “This guy tried to execute the police officer. The police officer had no idea he was coming. It’s amazing he’s alive.”

“We’re thankful to God he’s here today because it easily could’ve been a police funeral.”

Hartnett was taken to Penn Presbyterian Medical Center where he underwent surgery for a broken arm. Ross says the officer’s arm suffered significant damage and that he has a long road to recovery.  As of Friday night, he was listed in stable condition and police officials say he will need several surgeries to repair his arm.

World News Today send our prayers to Jesse Hartnett.

Archer could face LIFE in the iron college if he's convicted of attempted murder. Archer is innocent until proven guilty.

Paul LePage: Don't Count On D-Money Helping Your White Heroin-Addicted Daughter!

Talking the smack. Maine's Republican governor Paul LePage says some stupid shit.

I don't know if he was referring to drug money or a Black guy, who knows?

But the controversial Republican governor from Maine had spoken at a forum on the epidemic of heroin.

Paul LePage got on his soapbox and let his word vomit spread across the state. He rants about how the spread of heroin gotten out of control.

So while he was talking about initiatives to curb this issue, he flaunts out the stereotypical thug narrative.

"Now the traffickers ... These are guys with the name D-Money, Smoothie, Shifty, these types of guys. They come from Connecticut and New York, they come up here, they sell their heroin, and they go back home," LePage said. "Incidentally, half the time they impregnate a young, white girl before they leave, which is a real sad thing because then we have another issue that we've got to deal with down the road. We're going to make them very severe penalties."

It drew sharp criticism from Maine Democrats and the NAACP.

LePage dismissed the criticism and said, "look at my family".

I have a Black son. Check it, his name is Devon Raymond.

Eventually the pressure got to him. He was force to admit that his statements were racist.

Woman injecting arm candy into her body.

"I apologize again," LePage told reporters, saying he "slipped up." "My brain was slower than my mouth."

Many Republican-governed states seen a huge spike in heroin. LePage has previously called for greater enforcement against out-of-state dealers, and said last year he would consider using the state's National Guard.

Maine lawmakers are considering a bill to help ease the crisis that would include money for Drug Enforcement Administration agents and other law enforcement, in addition to funding for treatment programs and facilities. LePage, however, has threatened to veto the bill for what he said was favoritism toward treatment facilities receiving funding.

Maine being a 95% White-majority state is appealing to White and anti-gubmint extremists. They know how to traffic the narcs. But of course, it's them Boston......"insert racial slur" who are responsible for the rise in heroin.

LePage and his huge family. He adopts Devon Raymond into his family.

LePage has made many offensive remarks during his time in office, and in 2013 was accused of saying President Barack Obama hates white people. LePage denied the reports.

He once told the Maine NAACP to pucker up to his ass. "Tell ‘em to kiss my butt,” LePage said. "If they want to play the race card, come to dinner and my son will talk to them."

LePage may soon face impeachment. Democrats in the state legislature plan to move forward with an impeachment motion next week.

"El Chapo" Caught Up!

In 2013, Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman Loera was nabbed by the Mexican feds. He made a bold escape in 2015 and was on the run for nearly six months. His escape ended in the area where his empire started.

The world's most dangerous drug lord is back in custody. Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman Loera is in the hands of Mexican authorities.

The Mexican president Enrique Pena Nieto said that it's huge accomplishment. They feared that El Chapo would never be caught.

El Chapo was caught up in the town of Los Mochis, Sinaloa. The state of Sinaloa is where the cartel got its name. The most dangerous drug lord was an icon among hip-hop artists.

Gucci Mane, Rick Ross, 2 Chainz, Chief Keef, Lil' Durk, 50 Cent and many others have taken a liking to the Mexican drug lord.

The U.S. wants him to face charges in unsolved murders and federal drug trafficking.

They want to reserve a space for him to be in the Florence Hell House. The Supermax holds some of the most dangerous interns in the world.

The Mexican government is so far not comment on the transfer.

El Chapo escaped the Mexican iron college in 2015. He was on the run for six months. The federal lawmen nabbed El Chapo in a hotel. The arrest was a joint operation with the military that had led to a shootout with suspected Sinoloa cartel members.

Five people died in the firefight.

El Chapo is notorious for plotting escapes from the iron college. Mexican author
ities are determined to not let this happen again.

Of course, we believe them..... Give it two years and he's back out on the streets.

Winter Bliss!

The president delivers his last State of the Union. As he goes in, the unemployment rate is at 5%.

The jobs report for the month of December released some good news for the economy. The unemployment rate remains unchanged at 5%. 

Looks like the economy is back on the right track despite the noise being churned by agitators in the conservative media saying that 1/3 of the United States not working.

94.3 million are not working. Of course, if you do the math, you actually would say that less than 10 million aren't working.

Because death happens everyday. Births happen everyday. Someone is incarcerated in the iron college. Someone just quit their job. Someone just got fired from their job. Someone retired from their job. Someone was just laid off from their job. Someone is going to school full time. Someone is attending high school. Someone is attending college. Someone is often homeless. Someone is disabled. Someone has given up on their job. Someone has changed majors. Someone got promoted.

And this is never mentioned by the agitators in the junk food media. Because it would be simple to tell half-truths instead of the actual truth.

President Barack Obama's policies are working.

Conservatives have often bitched about the unemployment numbers being fudged.

Inept leaders Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) and Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY). The House Speaker and Senate Majority Leader have pass a resolution to eliminate Obamacare. It will be vetoed by President Barack Obama.

The labor market ended 2015 on a roll as employers added a blockbuster 292,000 jobs last month, underscoring that the U.S. economy remains on solid footing despite weakness in China and this week’s brutal market selloff.

The unemployment rate was unchanged at 5%, the Labor Department said Friday.

Economists surveyed by Bloomberg expected 200,000 job gains, according to their median forecast.

Businesses added 275,000 jobs, led by professional and business services, healthcare and construction.. Federal, state and local governments added 17,000. In another positive sign, job gains for October and November were revised up by a total 50,000. October’s was upgraded to 307,000 from 298,000, and November’s, to 252,000 from 211,000.

“This jobs report is pretty reassuring that the slowdown in (fourth-quarter economic growth) is not a prelude to a flattening in the economy,” says Stuart Hoffman, chief economist of PNC Financial Services Group. “GDP growth is likely to speed up” next year.

Many economists expected the December tally to be somewhat inflated by unusually warm weather that could have spurred hiring by construction firms, restaurants and retailers. Construction, in fact, added 45,000 jobs last month and 128,000 in a fourth quarter characterized by generally balmy temperatures across much of the country. And restaurants and bars added 37,000 in December.

Still, the economy gained a healthy average of 221,000 jobs a month in 2015. In 2014 ,260,000 new jobs a month were created, though that marked a 15-year high.

Economists had said a weak showing in December could signal that the global turmoil was shaking business confidence and hiring. A similar scenario appeared to play out in August and September, when payroll growth slumped before rebounding strongly the next two months. Back then, reports about China’s economic slowdown sent stocks tumbling, as they have in recent days.

Other labor-market indicators, though, have been encouraging. Payroll processor ADP estimated that businesses added a better-than-expected 257,000 jobs in December and an index of service-sector activity showed a pickup in hiring. Initial jobless claims, a reliable barometer of layoffs, hovers at prerecession levels.

At the same time, measures of manufacturing employment, online job ads and auto sales declined last month, leading some analysts to predict that job growth slowed.

Road Rage Not Race Crime!

A young woman killed in a road rage incident. The suspect got upset that the young woman rejected his flirts.

Conservatives are quick to hop on a Marine being held on murder charges after he was accused of shooting a Texas woman.

Sara Mutschlencher was shot and killed in an apparent road rage incident. The 20 year old woman was killed by 20 year old Eric Jamal Johnson.

The suspect is held on murder.

He was caught at the Marine Corps air station in Arizona. He is being held in lockup and will be extradited back to Texas. The incident happened in Denton about 40 miles from Fort Worth and 45 miles from Dallas.


Sara was being the designated driver for a New Year's Eve party. She and a couple of her friends were leaving the party early when a dark-colored SUV with several occupants pulled up on them.

The occupants went into a conversation with Sara and her friends. Of course it went into talk about sex and it was repulsive towards Sara and her friends.

As they told the occupants of the other video to fuck off, one of the occupants (Johnson) pulled out his shooter and lit up Sara's car. The slug got her in the head and it led to a crash.

Sara was just taken off life support after doctors couldn't save her.

Sara was studying in the art of film. She was a member of the Zeta Tau Alpha sorority.

Cameras in the area quickly zoomed in on Johnson as being the shooter. He joined the Marines in 2013 and it's likely he'll face a court martial over this.

"It breaks my heart, along with everyone else's heart, because she did not deserve this, of all people", said Olivia Flores, a junior attending the University of North Texas.

Did I happen to mention that the shooter was Black?

Well did I say that the suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law?

Faces trial for murder.

You know what bothers me the most. When every incident is driven through the lens of race.

The suspect didn't know the victim. The suspect engaged in a conversation with the victim and it became a heated confrontation. The confrontation became a deadly encounter.

Conservatives often assume guilt before innocent. They often ignore the court of law. I believe in the court system.

Conservatives hate when the junk food media leaves out the race of the suspect.

Racial extremists like Colin Flaherty and The Drudge Report are so quick to pounce on stories like this. They often play upon the "BLACK ON WHATEVER" narrative to distract the public from the real issue of gun violence.

Gun violence is the number one threat in the United States. President Barack Obama had recently had a town hall on gun violence. The town hall Guns In America was just on yesterday and the president mentioned that if there was reasonable background checks stuff like this wouldn't happen.

World News Today sends our condolences to the family of Sara Mutschlechner.
