Pop singer Ciara Wilson gave birth to her daughter this weekend. She and husband Russell Wilson of the Seattle Seahawks announced the birth on social media.
Ciara always keeping it classy told her supporters that she and her daughter Sienna Princess Wilson are doing fine. She and Wilson were pleased about the delivery.
Ciara went through some changes when she started dating Russell.
Ciara was previously involved with Future, Atlanta's codeine obsessed rapper.
Ciara gave birth to his son, Future Zahir Wilburn. At that time, Future was accused of cheating and they had a bitter fallout after the birth of her baby.
One of my closest cousins is one of the five women who had children with Future. The rapper has five children.
Wilson was previously married. This is his second marriage. The football star had pledge a life of celibacy before marriage. Ciara became a devout Christian and turned her life around.
The couple lives in Bellevue, Washington. Me and S.B wish them well on their journey to parenthood.
Donald J. Trump marked his 100 days on Saturday. I want to give a rundown of the end of his first days as the leader of this god awful country.
Trump was in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania do to a "celebratory" stump speech about his achievements.
He took the time to go into his usual "I won" and "everyone is a bunch of babies" rant. He and Mike Pence both had a floor to bemoan about the junk food media and Democrats being unfair to them.
Tiny Hands can't handle a comedian. Hasan Minhaj roasted Trump for his absence.
The fuhrer's biggest achievement is getting Merrick Garland on the Supreme Court. The seat that was supposed to be for Neil Gorsuch. Oops, I meant Garland was shafted because of the Republicans and their god awful obstruction. Gorsuch was the one who took the spot.
The government is running for at least a week. The stop gap measure that Trump signed to keep the government running didn't include funding for the border wall and a repeal of the Affordable Care Act.
Republicans can't figure out whether they have the potential to change a law that is currently more popular than Trump and Congress.
The "Nerd Prom" wasn't big. Trump skipped the event because he hates the junk food media. He bemoaned about CNN and MSNBC in particular being "unfair."
The Daily Show's Hasan Minhaj ripped Trump for not being man enough to take a few jokes. He said that Trump is the "Liar in Chief" and "tool" to Russia's president Vladimir Putin.
"The leader of our country is not here. And that's because he lives in Moscow. It's a very long flight. As for the other guy, I think he's in Pennsylvania because he can't take a joke."
Minhaj also took shots at members of the Trump team. He said that Steve Bannon is....well a White extremist. There's talk Bannon may bolt from the White House to join the Heritage Foundation and resume contributions to Breitbart.
"I do NOT SEE Steve Bannon," he said. He said it repeatedly before people got the message of Bannon being a referred as a "NAZI".
"Jeff Sessions is too busy do a pre-Civil War reenactment. On his RSVP he just wrote just wrote no -- which happens to be his second favorite N-word," said Minhaj.
Trump's feud with the media is short term gains. The freedom of the press is a part of the values that "Make America Great Again." But for Trump, his team and his supporters, the freedoms they love so much are only given to them. The rest of us are the "enemy."
He gives a pass to Fox News. The network that is being sued by numerous current and former employees for unethical treatment. Black workers, women and former guests are calling Fox News out for allowing Roger Ailes, Bill O'Reilly and others get away with this stuff for so long.
The Trump event.
Added to the list is the Samantha Bee's "Not" The White House Correspondents Dinner.
The Cincinnati Bengals took a huge risk in drafting Joe Mixon to their roster. The whole situation with Mixon stems from an encounter that happened a few years ago. It became national headlines late last year when Mixon served a woman a helping of knuckle style chili.
The woman and Mixon got into a heated encounter. She slapped him and he served her a serving.
The woman had facial reconstruction surgery and her face wired shut.
When the NFL was cracking down on misbehavior on and off the field, Mixon was enrolling himself into the Draft.
Mixon since apologize and has clammed up pending legal action filed by the accuser. He was charged with misdemeanor battery and given probation. The Norman Police saw that both parties were the agitators. The woman called Mixon a racial slur before he served her.
The Bengals viewed Mixon as one of the best players in the draft and had him ranked as the No. 2 running back behind Leonard Fournette, a fourth overall pick who got signed to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Mixon was a part of the Oklahoma Sooners. He was banned from playing for the entire 2014 season after this.
Marvin Lewis, the struggling Bengals coach has confidence that Mixon will tone down his behavior and focus only on the sport and not the bar life.
The Bengals have a handful of controversial figures in the organization. Besides Mixon, they have Adam "Pacman" Jones as one of the most controversial.
Rewarding domestic abuse is a shame. Although Mixon did own up to his attack, he's still being rewarded for a senseless act of violence.
Mixon could be cut if he can't make it through the Summer training. So don't hold your breathe on people buying his jersey and promotionals.
Jeffrey Atkins is known as performer Ja Rule. He was once big during the late 1990s to early 2000s.
He was the deep voiced entertainer who loves to rap and sing. He was on top of his game until 50 Cent came into the spotlight. The rapper couldn't compete with a strong marketing campaign sponsored by 50, Eminem and Dr. Dre. Ja Rule's label Murder Inc. didn't stand a chance. People were getting tired of the bubblegum rap that Ja was doing. 50 Cent took advantage of it and let Ja fade out of the spotlight. Now he's trying to regain some of his glory. He started a business venture called Fyre Media and now its facing some major backlash after a concert he promoted became an all time flop.
Page Six reported that A-list talent decided to back out of the event at the last minute citing safety and organization.
According to Spin, the Fyre Festival, a luxury music fest in the Exuma Islands of the Bahamas, promised wealthy music fans “a cultural moment created from a blend of music, art, and food.” There are geodesic domes to sleep in, flights in a “custom, VIP configured” Boeing 737 out from Miami, private yachts that rented for tens of thousands of dollars each, yoga classes, treasure hunts, and sets by artists like Blink 182, Disclosure, and Ja Rule.
The Fyre Festival was supposed to be a big concert in the Bahamas for partygoers. It had prices ranging from $1,000 to $250,000 per event.
The festival was supposed to billed as a "cultural moment created from an alchemic blend of music, art and food."
This company Fyre Media founded by Ja Rule and Billy McFarland.
The whole event was made to look like a tropical getaway. Models, entertainers and even alcohol were promised in the island country.
Now the people who attended this event want their money back.
Ja Rule is quick to apologize and say he's sorry for what happened. I don't know if he's willing to refund those people who spent thousands of dollars to get a cheese sandwich.
The last sitting leader to attend a NRA Convention is Ronald Reagan, the 40th President of The United States. Reagan a survivor of an assassin attack two years prior went to the NRA Convention in Phoenix to get gin up support from angry White gun owners. He would tell them that his administration is a friend to the proud Americans who use their firearms.
Decades later, the former reality television star now the current leader heads to the NRA to encourage angry White gun owners to support him throughout his term.
"Only one candidate in the general election came to speak to you, and that candidate is now the [] of the United States, standing before you," said Trump.
"I have a feeling that in the next election, you're going to be swamped with candidates, but you're not going to be wasting your time. You'll have plenty of those Democrats coming over and you're going to say, 'No, sir. No thank you. No, ma'am.' Perhaps 'ma'am' It may be Pocahontas (Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA)), remember that. And she is not big for the NRA, that I can tell you. But you came through for me, and I am going to come through for you.
Trump makes his appearance at the NRA Convention to do a stump speech about how he'll protect the Second Amendment.
Donald J. Trump goes to Atlanta to deliver his speech to the National Rifle Association, the country's oldest gun lobbyist organization. He also heads to a fundraiser for Republican candidate Karen Handel's special election runoff against Jon Ossoff, the Democratic candidate who nearly won a heavily Republican district.
The NRA once again shows its impact on Republicans and Democrats by doing a victory lap.
The defeat of Hillary Clinton is a smack to the face of victims of gun violence.
The Republicans will rollback laws and regulations that allow more firearms in the public.
Barack Obama has been good for propaganda being spread by the NRA, conservative agitators and Republican politicians.
Trump's appearance to the NRA Convention wasn't without controversy. Many of the victims of gun violence protested the event. You couldn't even be allowed to enter the convention because the Secret Service refuses entry of a firearms within the bubble.
Donald J. Trump feels like he's in a cocoon. He was surprised how hard his new job is.
"I loved my previous life. I had so many things going. This is more work than in my previous life. I thought it would be easier," said Trump.
He said that was accustomed to not having privacy in his "old life," expressed at how little he had now. Reuters reports that Trump can't go outside the bubble. The 24/7 Secret Service protection has really gotten to him.
"I like to drive," said Trump. "I can't drive any more."
He can't live the lavish lifestyle as he did when he was a reality television star and business executive.
He's trapped in duty that requires him to be on point. His words matter and that's why people are extremely concerned that his comments about North Korea, Syria, the Democrats and allies in his own party could undoing his legacy.
We are not normalizing him. I refuse to give him any rest. He wanted the job. He will have to prove to me that he's "man enough" to handle the leadership.
What's symbolic about the first 100 days?
It's usually the motivation for a successful presidency. It's the major proposals that are signed into law and the achievements accomplished during a sitting president's first term.
Trump is not a "normal" president. He is a former reality television star who had the backing of extremists. He is the elected leader who won the Electoral College against the rational but yet flawed candidate Hillary Clinton. Trump took advantage of a stirring pot of conservative agitation. He won over working class Whites fed up with the slow progress of then president Barack Obama's two terms. He dog whistled throughout the campaign and won.
Now holding power to a country of 326 million people is really tough.
I mean really tough. Cause just because you get a honeymoon period doesn't disqualify the responsibilities given to a president on DAY ONE.
April 29 is traditionally the First 100 Days of a U.S. president's agenda. That's a part of the tradition.
Even though Trump dismisses this a "symbolic nonsense," it shows a pattern of problems that plagued him the moment he got in.
White extremist Ann Coulter is stopped at the door.
The so-called defender of White rights is on Fox News complaining about the University of California-Berkeley announcing that her highly publicized speaking tour being cancelled due to safety concerns.
The UC Berkeley students and anti-fascist groups demanded that the college put the brakes on this turd. The turd was going to speak Thursday but postponed it out fears for her safety and the potential for violent riots.
Coulter went to the junk food and social media to say, "It's a sad day for free speech."
The last time the college erupted in unrest was the gay white extremist Milo Yiannopoulos coming to speak at the campus. That was canceled but it left the police overwhelmed with costly destruction of property.
The college Republicans knew how polarizing Coulter was. They did it to seek attention for their stupid group.
The Young America's Foundation saying that far left radicals continue to demonize Republican lawmakers and conservative agitators.
Coulter heeded the calls from city leaders that her appearance could cause a serious disruption. They probably would have billed YAF and Coulter for the damages.
Hit them in their wallets.
Stop the hate, the bigotry and sexism in the junk food media.
Coulter has made inflammatory statements on television and radio.
Why do advertisers continue to promote their products on programs that feature her?
Republicans have control of Congress, the White House and the Supreme Court. Why the hell are they blaming the Democrats for the pending government shutdown?
The Republicans basically shut the Democrats out of discussion when it came to the health care law, the Supreme Court and funding the government. Democrats said pass all the laws on your own.
Republicans "won" and want their proposals passed with a bipartisan Congress. The Democrats refuse to get behind a bill that uses taxpayers money to build a border wall. They especially refuse to pass any bill that requires them to repeal a historical feat like the ACA.
And Trump took to social media to attack the Democrats for not getting along with him and Republicans.
The Democrats want to shut government if we don't bail out Puerto Rico and give billions to their insurance companies for OCare failure. NO!
Republicans are still at odds over how to run a functional government. The "grown ups" can't even compromise on their own promise to "repeal and replace" Obamacare.
The Affordable Care Act, a signature health care law signed by then president Barack Obama has been the "fly in the ointment" for Republicans since its signing.
On his 100th day the U.S. government could shutdown.
Donald J. Trump promised within his first 100 days the health care law would be repealed and replaced with American solutions. So far these solutions were met with harsh criticism.
The proposal by the House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) was done in a closed room with the do-nothing House Freedom Caucus. Some of the moderate and rank-in-file Republicans are not willing to back this decision to exempt lawmakers from the bill.
Democrats want the Republicans to take off the table Obamacare repeal and border wall. They also ask for a bailout for the autonomous territory of Puerto Rico.
Trump so far is refusing to met with the Democrats and will not meet them halfway.
I say to the Democrats, keep the pressure on the Republicans. Make them sweat. Go to their town halls and demand they answer to why Russia meddled in the election. Demand the Congress to investigate members of his team who colluded with Russia. Demand Trump to show his tax returns.
Keep pressuring Republicans with facts on ACA, climate change, the stealing of Obama's Supreme Court nominee, bigotry and the Trump brand.
Kelly Wright sues Fox News after years of racial discrimination.
Fox News got a handful of lawsuits this week. There were 11 current and former Black employees suing the network for racial discrimination. Andrea Tantaros is filing a criminal complaint against the network after she claimed that former Fox News president Roger Ailes and his allies tapped her phone and email.
This class-action lawsuit filed on Tuesday describes the network as an "abhorrent. intolerable, unlawful and hostile racial discrimination."
Tichaona Brown, Tabrese Wright worked for the payroll department and they sued first in March against former network comptroller, Judith Slater/ The New York Times report that the former comptroller engaged in racist behavior. She had made racist and crude remarks towards Black workers and network executives ignored the concerns.
A third worker named Monica Douglass said that Slater questioned her inappropriately about her personal life and mocked her and fellow Black employees. She had breast cancer and lost a side of her breast.removed. Slater called her "one-boobed girl" and kicked her in the butt while walking down the hall.
One familiar face on the network is Kelly Wright. He is currently on the network and he joined the lawsuit. He said that washed up conservative agitator Bill O'Reilly would never allow him on The O'Reilly Factor to discuss positive stories about Black people. That includes Black protesters outraged over gun violence, rappers, then president Barack Obama and Black Lives Matter.
O'Reilly scoffed at the notion of positive stories in the Black community. He said he better dial up Ailes and Bill Shine. Shine and Jack Abernathy are the current co-presidents of Fox News.
O'Reilly said that Wright should "offer to sign the national anthem at Fox News Town Halls."
Wright was once on the seat at Fox & Friends Weekend when he was replaced with a White anchor.
Despite Wright's outstanding performance and because he is Black, Wright had been effectively sidelined and asked to perform the role of a "Jim Crow" -- the racist caricature of a Black entertainer.
Slater also said some pretty foul shit about Black employees.
Slater would make employees say "ask" and "mother" and asked for them to pronounce them correctly. When some of the workers addressed Donald J. Trump's travel ban, Slater said "Who is going to Africa?"
Julie Roginsky also field a sexual harassment lawsuit against Ailes and Shine. She said that she faced retaliation for refusing sexual advances from Ailes.
Accounting director Tammy Efinger was ousted recently. She was one of the workers who ordered a woman to "fight" a Black employee for amusement.
Ailes would be extremely nervous around Black, Brown and Muslim employees. He would target Musfiq Rahman, a Bangladeshi payroll employee who he believes was a sympathizer to al Qaeda.
He also got really angry at Rahman when he accidently walked into the office without permission.
Ailes using the Fox News budget built a "barrier wall" to prevent anyone from seeing inside his office. Ailes grew paranoid about him. He said that he ordered the construction of the barrier wall to prevent "dark-skinned employees, especially males who could be mistaken for being Middle-Eastern descent" from entering his office unexpectedly.
Shine is on the ropes right now. James, Lachlan and papa Rupert Murdoch are considering a "clean house." Shine is close to being loaded inside the cannon. He could be fired out of it soon.
Many of the complaints alleged that non-White workers had to have a "brownnoser" guide them to the executive floor of Fox News. They had to be chaperoned to the top.
For years, Fox News lead the way in cable news. It's unapologetic, often brash and competitiveness has finally reached a boiling point.
The next move is to target advertisers of Fox News. The network relishes in promoting hate, sexism, and bigotry. Hit them in their wallets. Take down Bill Shine, Steve Doocy, Brian Kilmeade, Jeanine Pirro, Tucker Carlson, Michelle Malkin, Mark Levin, Jesse Watters, Bob Beckel, Greg Gutfeld, Neil Cavuto, Alex Jones, Joseph Paul Watson, The Drudge Report, The Gateway Pundit, Stuart Varney, Eric Bolling and Sean "Softball" Hannity.
If it wasn't for one of their own, Fox News wouldn't be in this mess.
For years, we complained about the racism, sexism, Islamophobia, the homophobia, and the constant disrespect towards the Obama family.
Advertisers continued to keep Fox News profitable because of their niche.
A bunch of angry old White men, a couch loaded with White women in skimpy skirts and heels, uber-patriotic themes and someone they can demonize was the formula for Fox News.
But like all things, success has an end.
Could Donald J. Trump's favorite channel be on the verge of a collapse of its own hate?
ESPN is laying off 100 sports figures you've seen on the channel.
Disney/ABC Television Group is the parent company of ESPN. The 24/7 sports and entertainment channel is going to phase out 100 postitions. Some of thos familiar names are on the chopping block.
Many of the most familar names you watched on the network might br gone by the end of the week.
I guess this decision is mostly about the cable fees and the subscribers decisions to drop the cord. ESPN carries a whole lot of licensing fees to cover NBA, WNBA, NFL, MLB, MLS, NHL, NCAA, Premiere Boxing, motorcross, boating, the Little League baseball, English Premier league soccer, and NASCAR.
ESPN president John Skipper said the decision was tough but essential to keep the network running.
I guess this is another one of those "Make America Great Again" memes.
We are on the verge of a retail industry crash. Even the cable networks are suffering.
Scott Baio called former co-star a dope fiend on radio.
Washed up actor Scott Baio is a huge Trump supporter. He spoke on behalf of Donald J. Trump at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland last year.
Baio is a kookspiracy nut who believes then president Barack Obama is a Muslim, Communist and terrorist sympathizer. He is a "staunch conservative" and isn't ashamed of it. He blames liberals for his horrible comments about his former co-star who he trashed on radio.
Right now, he's facing a backlash after he made disparaging comments about his former Happy Days co-star Erin Moran's sudden death. Moran who had numerous run-ins with drugs, alcohol and the law.
Moran and her husband lived in Indiana at a local trailer park about 40 miles from Louisville.
Moran was found dead in her trailer home and the county bag 'em ups said that she had Stage 4 cancer.
Baio blasted Moran for her reckless lifestyle and said on point that drugs and alcohol killed her. He was on Bernie and Sid Radio Program on Monday saying the following:
"If you do drugs or drink, you're going to die. She was just an insecure human being and fell into this world of drugs and alcohol. Again, I don't know if that's what killed her. I'm sure it was a culmination of years and years of doing it might have had something to do with it. She just never found her way."
Scott Baio and his wife Renee faced a huge backlash against the comments.
He said that the criticism is made to "shut him and other conservatives up."
He did post an emotional response in regards to the passing of Moran. Unfortunately it's a little too late, Moran's brother Tony, said that Baio is a piece of shit and coward.
Tony Moran said that he prays he doesn't run up on him.
Moran said that Baio is a little short on delivery.... well you know!
Ron Howard, Marion Ross, Henry Winkler and Donny Most went to social media to show sympathy towards Moran through their public social media and public appearances.
Moran and Baio would later star in the short-lived sitcom Joanie Loves Chachi.
Baio is most famous for also being on Charles in Charge.
Federal court struck down Trump's executive order on sanctuary cities.
A federal judge temporarily halted Donald J. Trump's executive order on sanctuary cities.
Trump's order was challenged by the city and county of San Francisco and Santa Clara County, California.
The two areas with a population of 1.3 million residents said that the president's order exceeds a city and county's enforcement of locality. The localities are saying, "we're not federal immigration agents."
This is a major setback to the Trump fuhrecy. His executive orders regarding immigration and the so-called Muslim ban were blocked in federal court.
U.S. District Judge William Orrick issued a nationwide preliminary injunction blocking the order's enforcement, effectively preventing the administration from pulling federal funds from the sanctuary jurisdictions that sured and others that may likewise feel their federal funding is at risk if they don't get along with the fuhrer.
This ruling could impact any attempts by Trump to strip localities of federal funding.
This makes another defeat for Trump. The fuhrer is reaching 100 days and yet no accomplishments other than stealing the Supreme Court seat from then president Barack Obama.
Cities that Trump claimed were sanctuary cities were San Francisco, New York City, Chicago, Milwaukee, Honolulu, New Orleans and Miami.
