Chris Smith loses the mother of his child in a deadly car accident.
Interstate 90 in Cleveland has to be one of the most dangerous stretches of highway in the United States. A deadly accident happened yesterday and it happened to kill the girlfriend of NFL defensive end Chris Smith.
Petara Cordero was a passenger in Smith's vehicle when the Lamorghini he operated blew a tire and crashed into the median. The two would exit the vehicle and stand by the side of the road when a drunk driver struck Cordero and the vehicle.
The woman who was driving the vehicle was not identified as of yet, but she is scheduled for a blood test to determine if she was too intoxicated to drive. The criminal charges will be aggravated homicide by vehicle, driving under the influence, operating while impaired, vehicular homicide, and unsure distance while operating a vehicle. The homicide charge in Ohio is assured 10 to LIFE in the iron college if the suspect is convicted. The driving charges will assure automatic bans for two years to a lifetime ban of operating a vehicle.
American woman killed on Interstate 90 in Ohio was the girlfriend of a NFL player.
The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
Chris Smith plays for the Cleveland Browns. He is a defensive end and a starting member of the team.
Smith and Cordero were allegedly leaving a restaurant when their vehicle blew a tire. The safest thing for the two was to stay inside the vehicle and wait for the Cleveland Police or Ohio State Patrol to come. Unfortunately they waited on the side of the median and didn't expect the possibility of a drunk driver to hit them.
Cordero was a first time mother and the two just celebrated the birth of their daughter, Haven Smith.
A rough time for Chris Smith and his family.
The Browns and NFL express the phony sympathy and condolences towards Cordero's family and Smith's family.
"Words cannot describe the sorry we feel for Chris following the loss of his girlfriend Petara," said Browns owners Dee and Jimmy Haslam in a statement. Haslam is the CEO of Pilot and Flying J Travel Centers. Haslam's brother was the former Republican governor of Tennessee, Bill Haslam.
Cuyahoga County Boys, the Cleveland Police and Ohio State Highway Patrol are doing an investigation into the accident.
The motorist admitted she was under the influence. She was driving a Mazda when she apparently hit the young woman without warning.
E-cigarettes are very popular in suburbia. Many Americans are using these flavored vapes and it's appealing to young adults. Yet, we have a real crisis going on in this country and that imbecile is not willing to address this.
GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.
Juul, the company at the center of this didn't expect this to be a controversy. They've done everything in their power to keep this shit out of the hands of people under 18. They're not parents or third party individuals. However, a handful of idiots died when they purchase these damn devices from shady sources.
So now under pressure, that imbecile and his members of the administration will do something about this crisis.
Which is the most dangerous issue in this country? (Expect trolls to pick the dumbest answers and offer the most stupidest responses)
The administration says vaping has become an epidemic.
At The White House, Donald J. Trump and Melania did a presser from the Oval Office. The move is evidently linked to recent reports of six deaths and several hundred hospitalizations from biological hazards. There are lung illnesses connected to vaping.
Health experts are concerned that "suburban" teens who never smoke cigarettes are exposed to nicotine through e-cigarettes.
The tobacco industry is hoping to win back former smokers. They are hoping the e-cig craze will fade out and Americans return to the "cool."
Congress is now trying to ban them and raise the age of tobacco purchases to 21.
Yet, they won't take steps to keep these fucking assault rifles off the streets. It's got to be another distraction to keep the debate of guns off the minds of Americans.
We had mass shootings in Odessa and Midland, Texas. Nothing done since the mass shooting in El Paso, Dayton, Chicago and Philadelphia. Well there was something done. The U.S. House of Representatives have passed a stricter background check bill, a "red flag" bill and a gun buyback bill.
None of those bills will ever reach the U.S. Senate. The Grim Reaper decided to block them from hitting the Senate floor.
Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has stated that the decision to pass gun reform lies in the hands of Donald J. Trump.
Trump says that Congress is responsible.
Shannon Watts of Moms Demand Action says that Congress fails at both issues.
"One hundred Americans are shot and killed every day in American. At least seven of them are children or teens. I realize the tobacco lobby didn't give your campaign $30 million like the NRA did, but gun violence is a national crisis."
Polls show that many Americans want something done about gun violence. Why are the Republicans afraid to do something about this?
Do they care about how many lives lost to gun violence or do they care about the money they rake in through lobbyists of the gun manufacturing industry?
Conservatives are dropping like flies in the age of Donald J. Trump. Another far-right billionaire and lobbyist is gone to them pearly gates.
The "Oracle of Oil" has passed away.
T. Boone Pickens, a hedge fund founder, philanthropist and oil baron who rewrote the book on corporate raiders passed away at the age of 91.
He passed away of natural causes.
Pickens had been suffering from declining health including a serious fall and a debilitating stroke.
In late 2017, he had put his Mesa Vista Ranch in the Texas panhandle up for sales. He also closed his hedge fund company BP Capital, to outside investors.
CNBC notes that Pickens started a career with Phillips Petroleum. He would later find ways to invest in wind power and natural gas.
He was a big time donor. He was the big shadowy type of billionaire who helped George W. Bush and Dick Cheney succeed in their two disastrous terms. He had lots of ties to Republican leaders, political agitators and folks in the news.
He put up funds to help the Oklahoma Stae University. That was Cowboy Nation and he was a major backer in their football stadium and athletics programs.
Thomas Boone Pickens Jr. was born May 22, 1928, in Holdenville, Oklahoma. His father was a "landman," who sold oil and mineral rights. During World War II, his mother was in charge of rationing in her region as head of the local Office of Price Administration.
As a 12-year-old paperboy, Pickens started out with 28 customers, but by acquiring adjacent routes one at a time he quadrupled his business.
"That was my first introduction to expanding quickly by acquisition — a talent I would perfect in my later years," he recalled on his website.
His family moved to Amarillo, Texas, where he attended high school. After graduating in 1951 from Oklahoma A&M (now Oklahoma State) with a degree in geology, Pickens started working at Phillips Petroleum.
He left three years later to drill wildcat wells, first founding Petroleum Exploration with $2,500 in cash and $100,000 in borrowed money for projects in the Texas Panhandle, and later establishing Altair Oil & Gas for exploration in western Canada. The companies became Mesa Petroleum, which Pickens took public in 1964 and became one of the largest independent oil and gas companies in the United States.
During Bush’s 2004 re-election campaign, Pickens helped finance the “Swift Boat Veterans for Truth” campaign that questioned John Kerry’s Vietnam War record and helped undermine the Democrat’s presidential bid.
He backed Republican Rudy Giuliani in 2008 and Donald Trump in 2016.
“Yes, I’m for Donald Trump,” Pickens declared in May 2016. “I’m tired of having politicians as president of the U.S. Let’s try something different.”
He supported Trump’s withdrawal from the Paris climate accord and his attempts to restrict visitors from predominantly Muslim countries from entering the United States.
“I’d cut off the Muslims from coming into the United States until we can vet these people,” he said. “Cut them off until we can figure out who they are.”
Aside from Republican politics, Pickens was a benefactor of numerous organizations, including the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas and the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston ($50 million each in 2007). His $165 million donation to his OSU’s athletic department helped fund the stadium renovation. The school named the complex Boone Pickens Stadium to thank him for what it said was the largest single donation ever to any university athletic department.
On Valentine’s Day 2014, the 85-year-old Pickens married Toni Brinker, widow of Dallas restaurateur Norman Brinker, in a small ceremony in the Mesa Vista family chapel. His four previous marriages ended in divorce. She survives him, as do three daughters and two sons from previous marriages.
Annoying agitator and his relentless obsession with Hillary Clinton.
Finally, the progressives are taking notice.
Media Matters for America does research on one of Fox News Channel's most watched cable shows.
The progressive organization found that its host has an annoying habit of name-dropping. He is by far the most annoying media personality in the country.
No, duh!
But the problem with that name-dropping is the complete and utter obsession to name that person.
The former Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton isn't the President of The United States. But in Sean "Softball" Hannity's mind, she's the president and he's devoted to making sure she's impeached and convicted of high crimes and misdemeanors.
Mind you we're in 2019 and last time I've check, Donald J. Trump is the current one.
Currently, he is working on Joe Biden. He is trying to use the very same nonsense he's used on Clinton. So we're expecting talk about Biden's health, his gaffes, his vocal cadence, his past statements, Obama this, Obama that, Clinton this, Clinton that, etc.
The softball's right wing carnival and cable news show has become actually "boring." I am amazed that his listeners and viewers are still fixated on his word vomit about Clinton.
Media Matters senior writer Matt Gertz had to watch and listen to this shitshow for nearly three years. He has put up statistics proving that Softball Hannity is literally focusing on issues to distract the public from all the controversies Trump gotten his dumb ass into.
Nearly 90% of his show is based on Hillary Clinton.
This obsession goes beyond the far-white agitator. You have guests on the program obsessed with Clinton as well.
Dan Bongino, Sara Carter, Greg Jarrett, John Solomon, Newt Gingrich and numerous others brought up Clinton's name in some fashion.
Media Matters put together a supercut of the softball mentioning Hillary Clitnon's name over and over. Try watch if you dare.
Remember every August, I do the Sean Hannity Word Vomit. I kind of wished they've came out with this earlier. I would have placed it directly on this previous posting.
The challenge for progressives is to focus on Trump's pipeline to policy. This agitator is a secret adviser to Trump. We need to shut the pipeline down. This is one of the pipelines to Trump. If we can find a way to lower his standings, we can weaken Trump.
Trump's scandals are sort of intertwined with this annoying agitator. Sooner or later, the feds will find a way to serve this agitator with a federal sandwich. He's been wrapped in this Russia stuff.
With his ties to Roger Stone, Paul Manafort, Michael Flynn, Michael Cohen, Roger Ailes and Trump, don't assume he's not under the feds radar. You can't indict Trump but you can indict Hannity!
White man reaches for Dayton cop's Taser. Still alive.
A tale of police interactions with suspects. If you're a Black man and you tried to reach for a cop's Taser, expect the cops to shoot you. But if you're a white man, they'll wrestle it from you, detain you and place you in a mental health facility.
Uh, something, something....something, something, just ain't right!
We're back in Dayton, Ohio. My hometown.
Yeah, I am sick of this community. This community of 140,000 folks is a part of the Rust Belt. This area went to a Republican after 35 years swinging to the Democrats. This community went through a whole lot of shit in the Trump years but nothing amounts to a destructive tornado and a mass shooting. The Dayton Police had been praised by Trump for handling the white terrorist who killed nine in the Oregon District.
Despite this, the Dayton Police still operate on two different fronts.
A Dayton Police officer had to detain a man after he reached for his Taser. This happened at the Premier Health Partners Miami Valley Hospital.
This 30-year old is accused of taking a Taser during a struggle with the cop. Police were called on Saturday to check on man who was mentally ill. He was acting foolish at a McDonald's.
The suspect was taken to the hospital.
Ohio man who flees police shot and killed.
The officer was writing off paperwork when this suspect tried to reach for the Taser. The two struggled and the Taser was deployed. No one was injured in the Taser deployment.
Kind of makes me angry that a cop could allow his guard down for a mentally ill white man.
This suspect is facing criminal charges. The charges include reaching for police officer's Taser, robbery, felonious assault, menacing and intent of bodily injury.
Some of the charges are felonies. The charges could put this suspect into the iron college for up to 10 years.
The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. At least, his ass is still alive.
Yet, a Black man fleeing from the cops is accused of reaching for a Taser and the cop had "no choice" but to use deadly force. A cop who has less than three years under his belt. Dayton cop Cody Hartings is still in the freezer. The Ohio grand jury is determining whether the cop's use of deadly force was justified.
Tuck was fleeing the cop after they did a routine pullover for alleged tint violations. The occupants got out the vehicle and the cop chased Tuck. The cop claims that Tuck was posing a danger and he had no choice.
This month, the Dayton and Riverside Police were doing damage control after they allowed a white suspect steal a police cruiser. He stabbed his own father. Hit a police officer in the head, stole his cruiser and crashed into another cruiser as he flees. He would soon lead the police on a high speed chase and ended up crashing into a mini van. Two little girls were killed. The suspect was injured but wasn't killed by any police gunfire.
People should not ever live like this.
Cops don't have a cape or shield. They wear bulletproof vests. Yet, they have a 60% chance of going home after their shifts. The most dangerous call for a police officer is a domestic violence call. Then comes the routine pull-over. Then the active mass shooter. Then the elements (i.e. tornado, wildfire, and water rescue). Lastly, the wild or domestic animal on the loose is dangerous.
Cops have to be babysitters, therapists, bullies and enforcers. Some cops do their jobs by actively working in communities of color. Those are the good cops. The bad cops often post bullshit on social media, support white nationalist rhetoric, assume all people of color are acting suspiciously and make bogus claims to unlawfully search your car and home. They are the ones who make good cops' job a death sentence.
If the terrorist was Black, Hispanic, Muslim or an immigrant, you would expect Donald J. Trump to tweet something offensive and call for more restrictions.
EXPECT MORE COPS SHOOTING UNARMED OR LEGALLY ARMED PEOPLE OF COLOR. EXPECT COPS TO WALK WHEN THEY CLAIM THEY USED DEADLY FORCE BECAUSE THEY FEARED FOR THEIR LIVES. EXPECT GOOD COPS TO BE KILLED BY TERRORISTS. POLICE DEPARTMENTS CONTINUE TO ALLOW BAD COPS AND CORRUPT POLICE UNIONS TO REIGN STATE SPONSORED TERRORISM UPON PEOPLE OF COLOR. POLICE KILLING PEOPLE OF COLOR IS STATE SPONSORED TERRORISM.
BEING A COP IS A THANKLESS JOB. THEY CONTINUE TO SERVE AND PROTECT IN AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS JOB.
It's almost embarrassing to hear this type of story.
A person dressed as the iconic Sesame Street character Elmo was busted after he groped a teenager's buttock. The incident happened on Saturday afternoon after a family went to pose with the character.
The predator was detained by the New York Police Department after the family made a report that the guy inside Elmo decided to cop a feel. The 14-year old teen and her family posed for a photograph.
The predator was taken into custody and arraigned at the Manhattan Criminal Court yesterday on charges that include forcible touching.
The predator was given a "get out free" card.
The predator has no criminal history in New York. The predator resides in New Jersey.
Witnesses saw this predator in an odd behavior.
A police spokesman told Newsweek: "An individual dressed in an Elmo costume was arrested and charged after he placed his hands on a 14-year old female's back down to her buttock and squeezed her buttock without her consent. The victim was not injured as a result."
This is nothing new.
Timothy Tompkins, the president of the Time Sqaure Alliance, a group which promotes the busy tourist intersection, said this week that such cases are becoming more frequent, even in the wake of efforts to license performers and cordon them into zones.
"We've been tracking a growing number of complaints about people being touched without consent, not only in a sexual way," Tompkins said. "The police are doing what they can, but we think there's a need for some additional regulations or legislation, and we know the City Council is working on that."
The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. The charges could be misdemeanor and would require the suspect to enroll in Offender U as a TIER I. He could face up to a year in the iron college for that.
The CIA feared Trump will spill the beans to Vladimir Putin.
The Central Intelligence Agency had to pull a former Russian operative acting on behalf of the United States out of fear that Donald J. Trump would expose his name. The Russian Federation would immediately order a hit on any defectors.
The operative was pulled from Russia a few months into Trump's term. The CIA feared that the operative could be killed. The spy had access to the Federation's president Vladimir Putin.
This was two years ago. CNN's Jim Sciutto detailed how U.S. intelligence officials were so worried that Trump would accidentally expose the covert asset's identity that they launched a secret mission to extract him from Russia in 2017.
That asset could have been working with the United States to help them capture Edward Snowden, the former NSA worker who leaked classified information to the world. Snowden was stopped at the Russian gates because the U.S. revoked his passport.
Snowden is currently seeking asylum and is a personal friend of Putin.
Five sources have told CNN that Trump's friendliness to Russia was concerning. The asset sent information to the United States for years. The operative now lives in the Washington, DC area under an assumed name.
This raises strong concerns. Trump wanted to improve relations with Russia. The results could have damaged the U.S. intelligence and gave Russia a stronger hand.
In 2017, Trump was photographed by Russian media The Oval Office meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergrey Lavrov and then Russan-ambassador Sergey Kislyak was controversial. The American junk food media wasn't there nor was Trump's top advisors. Trump leaked information from Israel about the Islamic State.
Trump looking gray in this photo taken by Russian photographers.
The operatives of the Islamic State were plotting to bomb commercial flights with laptops and tablets.
Israel was angered by the leak and warned Trump to not expose delicate information.
Trump has called upon the G7 leaders to reinstate Russia. Trump claims Barack Obama was embarrassed by Putin. He claims that was the reason why Russia was banned from the power summit
The White House and CIA both strongly deny the report and slammed CNN for releasing this.
Meanwhile, the Russian government placed a hit on a Chechen exile. Zelimkhan Khangoshvili was assassinated by the Russian operative in Berlin, Germany. The operative fired a glock and shot Khangoshvili in the head.
The operative threw the firearm in the pond and tried to ditch the bicycle. He was close to fleeing Germany. The terrorist was caught and will face criminal charges. The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
This is what Russia does. You defect and scorn Russia, you're going to get it. The last hits were Alexander Litvinenko in 2006 and Sergei Skripal and his daughter in 2018. They were poisoned in Salisbury, England near a park and restaurant. Three members of the law were poisoned as well because they came within contact of the two at a park.
Skripal and his daughter were poisoned after they came in contact with banned nerve gas called Novichok. Skripal and daughter Yulia were poisoned when they came into contact with towels and door handles with the A-234 nerve agent. They were hopitalized with severe injuries and later released and placed in British protection.
Trump found it amusing that Russia had a way of taking on critics.
Trump reluntently pushed sanctions on Russia during that fiasco.
Russian operatives are in the United States. They could find the operative and assassinate him in the United States. Spies exists in the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Israel, Russia and China.
Should have shave that mustache. John Bolton was fired out the cannon.
Today, Donald J. Trump fired National Security Advisor John Bolton out the cannon. This tweet went to the world less than an hour ago. Trump cites his strong discomfort for Bolton's style.
He said that "John has never seen a war he doesn't like."
I informed John Bolton last night that his services are no longer needed at the White House. I disagreed strongly with many of his suggestions, as did others in the Administration, and therefore....
....I asked John for his resignation, which was given to me this morning. I thank John very much for his service. I will be naming a new National Security Advisor next week.
Trump claimed that he "disagreed strongly" with Bolton "as did others in the administration."
This is huge.
Trump had planned a talk with Afghanistan leaders and the former Taliban leaders at Camp David.
That was widely condemned by both Republicans and Democrats alike. The Taliban, which was deposed by George W. Bush in 2001, vowed to fight the Western influence and those who support them.
This also triggered a major feud with Trump and Bolton. The former National Security Advisor went immediately to Fox News to diss Trump. He texted Brian Kilmeade saying that "He resigned."
He said that the imbecile didn't have the balls to fight.
I offered to resign last night and President Trump said, "Let's talk about it tomorrow."
This is the third National Security Advisor fired out the cannon in recent time. This is Trump's first term. Mind you that the last two were Michael Flynn, Sr., the indicted former Army general who lied about his ties to Russian operatives. H.R. McMaster, the former Homeland Security Secretary who was fired out the cannon because he questioned Trump's foreign policy in Israel.
The controversy came after The White House reporters were informed that Bolton, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Secretary of the Treasury Steve Mnuchin would brief them at 1:30 pm in the press briefing room.
Bolton was seen as a war hawk who favored military intervention around the globe --- a view that was at odds with Trump's insistence that America's troops should stop being "the world's policeman."
Trump also had an issue with the mustache. Bolton had a push broom mustache and it annoyed the imbecile.
Bolton clashed with Pompeo over foreign policy and was recently sidelined during internal White House discussions about how to handle conflicts with the Taliban in Afghanistan.
Bolton opposed Trump's proposals for a troop drawdown in Afghanistan and a Taliban peace plan.
Bolton was strongly supportive Trump leaving the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (Iran Nuclear Deal P5+1). Bolton was strongly supportive of Iran being sanctioned and the U.S. was close to war engagement because of him.
Bolton was the former United Nations Ambassador under George W. Bush and a Fox News commentator.
Bolton, 70 dubbed himself an "America First" type of policy wonk. He was strong supporter of Israel, a supporter of the Brexit deal, and wanted military intervention with Afghanistan and the Middle East.
This is the latest high profile cannon firing.
Turnover at the White House is unprecedented. This gives the world a perception that the government here is dysfunctional and Trump is creating global uncertainty. Mind you that Trump hired Bolton just last year.
It sparks the possibility of Bolton joining the 2020 race to primary Trump. Bolton had considered running for president back in 2016. He declined.
Still a taboo in the South. Interracial marriage still bothers the far-white Republicans.
A woman in Mississippi records an event planner at a wedding venue refusal to perform marriage ceremonies for interracial couples and gay couples.
LaKambria Welch posted on social media her reaction from an unidentified woman who is saying in the video, "We don't do gay weddings or mixed-race venues because of our Christian race, I mean our Christian belief."
LaKambria Welch told NBC News on Tuesday that her brother, who is black, and his fiancée, who is white, had been considering booking the event hall for their wedding.
They had been communicating with an owner of the venue for about a week when they were suddenly told they could not get married there for a reason having to do with beliefs.
Welch, 24, said she suspected the hall's operators had discovered the couple's races through Facebook and went to talk to them in person.
The woman at the venue in the video is not identified. During the under-30-second clip recorded Saturday, the woman tells Welch, “First of all, we don’t do gay weddings or mixed race."
Welch responds: "OK. So why not?"
"Because of our Christian race — I mean, our Christian belief,” the woman says.
"OK. We're Christians as well, so what in the Bible tells you that," Welch responds, before she is interrupted by the woman, who tells her, "Well, I don't want to argue my faith."
Welch then says, "That's fine" and the woman replies: "We just don't participate. We just choose not to."
Welch asks her: "So that's your Christian belief, right?" The woman responds, "Yes."
On Tuesday, Welch told NBC News that after leaving the venue, she was "a bit upset, as to be expected, but to be honest," knew deep down what the owner meant by her "beliefs."
The video posted by Deep South Voice on Saturday had been viewed more than 2 million times on Twitter and YouTube as of Tuesday morning and prompted calls for the event hall to be shuttered. The business' Facebook page was taken down over the weekend.
The video goes viral and it brings up the issues that long plagued Mississippi.
Nearly 50% of Mississippi Republicans are against interracial marriage.
Gov. Phil Bryant, Sen. Cindy Hyde Smith (R-MS) and Sen. Roger Wicker (R-MS) support memorials of the Confederacy and Donald J. Trump's agenda when it comes to people of color.
The wedding venue doing damage control after the video went viral. The company lost revenue and staff got death threats. They had to apologize to the woman and those who were offended.
Boone’s Camp Event Hall could not be reached for comment Tuesday.
Mississippi passed a "religious freedom" law in 2016 allowing merchants and government employees to cite religious beliefs in denying services to same-sex couples. Many critics of the incident at Boone's Camp Event Hall noted that this law does not mention race.
The City of Booneville released a statement Monday in response to the woman in Welch's video.
“The City of Booneville, Mayor, and Board of Aldermen do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, gender, age, national origin, disability, marital status, sexual orientation, or military status,” officials said in a statement posted to Facebook on Monday. “Furthermore, the City of Booneville, Mayor, and Board of Aldermen do not condone or approve these types of discriminatory policies.”
The Boone's Camp Event Hall Facebook page was briefly restored Sunday and an apology posted to it, apparently by the woman in the video.
The post said, in part, “as a child growing up in Mississippi our racial boundaries that were unstated were that of staying with your own race."
The post continued: “My husband asked me to show him in the Bible where it was located as to the content concerning biracial relationships. I studied for a minute and began to think about the history of my learning this and where it came from.”
The author of the Facebook post wrote that she spent Saturday and most of Sunday “searching,” and after a meeting with her pastor, “I have come to the conclusion my decision which was based on what I had thought was correct to be supported by the Bible was incorrect.”
Welch told NBC News on Tuesday that she, her brother and his fiancée accept the owner's apology and that the couple is not going to get married at the venue.
"I’ve stated that I am a Christian as well," Welch said. "So, growing up, my grandmother would always tell me to forgive, even without an apology. I’ve always lived by that with everything."
Washed up politician Sarah Palin is once again in the news. The former Republican vice presidential nominee for John McCain and former governor of Alaska was big in the late 2000s. She developed the catalyst for one Donald J. Trump.
She was the most dumbest politician besides Trump. Both shared a joy in being total assholes towards rivals and the junk food media.
It seems like the Palin clan is falling apart.
Todd Palin is filing for divorce from Sarah. They've been married for 31 years and have five children and seven grandchildren. The family main characters besides Sarah were Track, Bristol and Willow.
Track has two children from his ex-wife and estranged ex-girlfriend. Bristol has three. Two from her ex-husband and one from her teenage former boyfriend. Willow has twins with her husband.
Todd, Piper and Trig are not in the limelight as much as the others.
The Daily Mail reports that Todd filed at Anchorage Superior Court on Friday. The court cites an "incompatibility of temperament between the parties such that they find it impossible to live together as husband and wife."
The filing used intials like TMP and SLP rather than their full names, but it was traced back to the couple through the marriage date and the birth date of their son Trig.
Palin was elected as governor in 2006. She was thrust into the national spotlight after McCain picked her as his running mate. McCain and Palin came to Dayton, Ohio in their introduction as a running ticket.
Todd, a commercial fisherman and oil field worker, became an instant sensation for being dubbed a "First Dude." He was good friends with Joe The Plumber and the Duck Dynasty clan.
McCain and Palin lost to Barack Obama and Joe Biden. Palin resigned from her role as governor shortly after. She would later join Fox News as a commentator and was being prepped to run in 2012.
But it was revealed that she had no interest in running for president. Roger Ailes was angry that she appeareed on far-white agitator Mark Levin's program to decline a run. He would blacklist her from Fox News. She would appear on TLC, Outdoor Network and OAN. Those eventually ended in disaster.
Rumors of the two having affairs brewed from 2009.
The Palin clan are a hot mess.
The marriage were dogged by allegations that Sarah Palin was cheating with a Republican consultant.
Todd Palin was accused of having an affair with a local resident from Wasilla when Sarah and Bristol were doing Dancing With The Stars and publicity tours.
He requesting joint custody of Trig who is still the only child that is minor. The rest are adults.
The last time we've heard from Palin was her visit to the White House with Ted Nugent and Kid Rock. The three were guest of Trump, Ivanka, Jared Kushner and Sean Spicer. The three did some trolling at a picture of Hillary Clinton.
So a former politician turned reality television star is filing for divorce is being ridiculed for being a fucking hypocrite. A former reality television star turned politician who filed for two previous divorces, cheated on third wife with two adult entertainers, called one of his daughters fat, another daughter very "attractive and well enough to do," called women "nasty" and says he can "grab 'em by the pussy" is praised for being a "stable genius."
Uh, this is Republicans for you!
Sarah Palin continues to falls into the world of obscurity. Can she take Trump, Mike Pence, Mitch McConnell, Kevin McCarthy, Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, Laura Ingraham, Tomi Lahren, Sean "Softball" Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, Tucker Carlson, Diamond & Silk, David Clarke, Milo Yiannopolos, Dana Loesch, Wayne LaPierre and Candace Owens with her?
RNC chief and Trump conspire to squash competitors in Republican primaries.
Ronna Romney McDaniel has sparked controversy. She said that any primary against Donald J. Trump will not go forth. That means those who want to challenge Trump in Republican primary aren't going to get any attention.
Former governor of Massachusetts Bill Weld, former South Carolina governor and congressman Mark Sanford and former Illinois congressman and talk radio agitator Joe Walsh are actively challenging Trump for the nomination.
They cite the incompetence and Republican hypocrisy as a reason for their decision to run for president.
Three states will not honor Republican primary challenges. That means all the delegates will directly go to Trump and no challenger will be offer a platform in their state.
South Carolina, Nevada and Kansas will not hold any primaries or caucuses. Other states could follow suit soon. That means the primary challengers will have no way to attract support and generate political donations.
That eliminates Trump's competitors.
Three Republican contenders want to take on Trump. The party won't allow them to debate or contest Trump.
The move is not unprecedented for incumbent parties. In 2004, ten states cancelled their nominating contests to support George W. Bush.
CBS News reports that Republicans in state party leadership have to pay to hold its primaries or caucuses, so if there is an incumbent with considerable support, then the party is inclined not to incur the cost of putting on an expensive primary. According to the Nevada GOP spokesperson, the state party would save nearly $150,000 if it cancels the caucuses for the 2020 cycle. That means Trump can go golfing at his private resorts on the Republican Party's dime.
McDaniel said that the RNC doesn't dictate whether a state party should hold nominating contests.
A wink and nod folks.
Trump's campaign went out quickly to state party leaders demanding they eliminate the competition.
So far, Trump has 92% favorability among Republicans.
A well-known Ohio meteorologist is facing a federal sandwich. He was caught with a lot of child pornography. Enough to put him in federal time out for LIFE. This is a shocking revelation for a once beloved TV personality.
Mike Davis was a stable of WBNS 10. The CBS-affiliate covers the Central Ohio and it's stationed out of the west end of Columbus.
Davis, a married father of three had his home and WBNS computer and stationary seized.
The 60-year old was arrested after authorities received a tip about this guy having and receiving a "significant" amount of child porn images.
Investigators said they were investigating him for weeks before raiding his home and the news station where he worked for over 30 years.
