Dwyane Wade: Keep My Son Out Ya Mouth!

Dwyane Wade supports his son. Trolls attack his son for being gay.
Retired NBA star Dwyane Wade comes out in support of his son. Wade and his wife Gabrielle Union are currently feuding with Simon Cowell over her firing at America's Got Talent.

Wade decides to take a picture with his daughter, his wife and his son, Zion.

The picture goes viral. And then here comes the trolls!

This year, Wade was dealing with trolls taunting his son because he is gender fluid (or gay).

Back in April, Wade's son went with his stepmother and older brother at the Miami Beach pride festival. Union and his brother Zaire were supportive of Zion coming out.

"Zion had his own cheering section today. Wish I was there to see you smile kid," Wade posted on social media. "We support each other with pride. It's a family thing."

Wade took to social media after folks started posting on Union's social media about the appearance of Zion. They mocked him for wearing a crop-top and fake nails. Some were cruel to the young child.



Wade didn't take kind to trolls talking crap about his son.






Like most fathers, some find it hard to accept a child that could be gay. It's hard to accept in some conservative families. Especially in the Black community.

A third tweet called out the "hate" his family had received, adding that "stupidity is a part of this world we live in."

He went on to defend his parenting and Zion's right to dress as he chooses.
Gabrielle Union with Zion. She is a great stepmother to Dwyane's children.
"I've been chose to lead my family, not y'all," he posted. "So we will continue to be us and support each other with pride, love and a smile."

Granted, he is quickly learning that the trolls on Twitter and Instagram won't let him or Union post a photo without adding in their opinion about whether or not he is doing everything correctly. That's the nature of social media.

The longtime Heat star has heard this criticism, and he is not very happy about it. In his opinion, the anonymous users on Twitter should leave him alone and let him raise his family how he and Union see fit.

Bayou Bloodshed: Mass Shooting In New Orleans!

Another mass shooting in the United States. This happened in New Orleans.
Thoughts and prayers, thoughts and prayers. Thoughts and prayers will not heal the wounded or bring back the dead. It is worthless platitudes and "feel goodism" from the most absent minded individuals in this country.

The latest mass shooting in the United States happened in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Donald J. Trump, Mike Pence, Gov. John Bel Edwards, Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA), Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) and the six U.S. Representatives will offer nothing but the usual bullshit that doesn't fix the man-made crisis of gun violence. Our American leaders, the National Rifle Association and the junk food media are numb to gun violence.

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.

Some terrorist opened fire on innocent human lives. This happened in French Quarter. At least 11 people were shot and two were hospitalized with critical injuries.


Another mass shooting in the United States. This happened in New Orleans. The suspect was caught. Who deserves the blame? (Expect trolls to offer the dumbest answers and responses. This is an unscientific poll. We expect trolls here).

Donald Trump
Barack Obama
Muslims
Black Lives Matter
Immigrants
Progresives
Conservatives
NRA
Gov. John Bel Edwards
Congress
Lack Of Prayer In America
Rap Music
Violent Movies
Video Games
Fatherless Homes
March For Our Lives
White Supremacists
Gang Activity
The Junk Food Media
The Shooter
Other
Please Specify:

The New Orleans Metropolitan Police confirmed they have a person of interest involved in the latest mass shooting in the United States.

No details are known about the shooting but it's alleged that an altercation started during the Bayou Classic. The HBCU rivalry between Grambling State University and Southern University.

The incident happened between Canal Street between Bourbon and Royal Streets.

The victims' identities, ages and genders have not been released. No law enforcement officers were injured.

Police originally reported 10 victims as five were taken to local hospitals. The victim count increased to 11 when a victim entered the hospital on his own.

The terrorist faces LIFE or DEATH if convicted in the state of Louisiana. The parish laws involving attempted murder, aggravated assault, unlawful discharge of a firearm, inducing panic, firing on crowds could be a 20 year sentence in the iron college.

The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

The website Officer Down is a memorial to those who were killed in the line of duty. Those who don't get their names mentioned in the junk food media. Also the website the National Gun Violence Memorial also keeps record of the many individuals killed by gun violence.
Every city in the United States faced a mass shooting.
Mass shootings are happening in the United States. You may think it's never gonna happen to your town, your family or yourself, but I assure you it will affect you at some point.

Don't you just want to scream!?

Scream in the faces of these damn lawmakers whenever they offer their "thoughts and prayers" to every fucking mass shooting in the United States. They will offer their condolences and say a word vomit how they sympathize with the deceased. Some here will tell us that "now isn't the time to talk." Others will say that "the NRA has too much influence on gun laws."

We will talk about this for a few days and then we're off to another controversy. The next controversy would either be something done by Trump, a politician, an entertainer or we will experience another mass shooting. The next mass shooting will be even worse than the last one.

I repeat myself over and over again! I use the same old copy and paste. I hear the same trolls saying that there's nothing we can do. I keep hearing "concern" trolls telling us that it's their own fault for their own deaths. I hear the same old talking points about "good guys with guns" and "god's given rights."

I am getting really tired of dealing with mass shootings.

People should not ever live like this.

If the terrorist was Black, Hispanic, Muslim or an immigrant, you would expect Trump to tweet something offensive and call for more restrictions.

Now another city becomes a marker in history.

How many more will suffer at the hands of gun violence?

We are in the midst of possibly the 300+ mass shooting in the United States. Donald J. Trump, Congress, the National Rifle Association and agitators in the junk food media have moved on from dealing with gun violence. They're too busy sniping over the impeachment inquiry and partisan blame games.

Trump and lawmakers elected to federal office made politics extremely toxic.

It's not just the fault of our dear leader and lawmakers, but relentless agitators on the 24/7 cable news channels. They are profiting off division and divisiveness. The internet is also a problem. It's is a breeding ground for potential mass shooters. Facebook, Twitter, Google and other social media outlets have been "ground zero" for disinformation, partisan threats and social activism. Incels and social outcasts find their outlets on sites that inspire them to cause harm to their fellow human beings.

Terrelle Pryor Got Air Holed!

Terrelle Pryor got a couple air holes in his body after he attack his old flame.
The Game. The country's oldest college football rivalry.

Michigan Wolverines and the Ohio State Buckeyes go at again. Under Ryan Day, the Buckeyes handed the Wolverines their latest defeat. The Buckeyes are slated to take on the Wisconsin Badgers in a rematch. But this time it's for the Big 10 National Championship.

Michigan was handed a huge loss.

That got fans and Michigan alum fumed at coach Jim Harbaugh. Under his leadership, the Wolverines have lost constantly to the Buckeyes.

The team has closed out their season with 9-3. The last losses were to Wisconsin Badgers and Penn State Natti Lions, two top ranked Big 10 conference teams.

Ohio State is considered No. 1 (No. 2) in the national polls.

LSU continues to be the top rank team and is clinched the SEC regional. Also for the first time, Alabama will not be in the CFB Playoffs. They lost to long time rival Auburn in a epic showdown.

Domestic violence is a real threat in the United States. Our leaders in Washington, DC, once again failed at doing their jobs. The Democratic-led House of Representatives managed to pass the reauthorization of the Violence Against Women's Act in perfect fashion. The bill is stalled in the Republican-controlled senate. The Grim Ripper of Kentucky, Mitch McConnell has not taking up any of the House legislation. He is throwing around the notion that Democrats want to shut the government down to just impeach Donald J. Trump.

NFL wide receiver Terrelle Pryor was stabbed in Pittsburgh on Saturday. He is recovering at a local hospital and a suspect was arrested.

The former Ohio State University quarterback walked into a local hospital with stab wounds. The Pittsburgh Police couldn't confirm the victim's identity but his agent said that he was involved in an altercation.
Terrelle Pryor's ex-girl stabbed him after they got into a fight.
Pryor, 30 was injury badly but is expected to make a full recovery from the injuries.

A suspect was identified. There was a woman who was arrested in the altercation. The woman is being charged with criminal attempted homicide and aggravated assault.

He has spent time with many NFL teams including the Buffalo Bills, New York Jets, Washington Redskins and Cleveland Browns. He recently signed to the Jacksonville Jaguars before he was waived for a minor hamstring injury.

He was considered on the earliest top prospects in the 2000s. He grew up in Jeannette, Pennsylvania and stated his choice was the Ohio State Buckeyes. He caused a great deal of concern during the Jim Tressel era.

Pryor and some of his team were found to have broken NCAA rules by trading equipment, memorabilia and autographs for perks.

Ohio State coach Tressel was soon fired out the cannon when he admitted to lying to NCAA officials.

Tressel received a hefty fine and forced off the Buckeyes. After assistant coach Luke Fickell took over, Ohio State was barred from a bowl berth for a few years. Urban Meyer would soon sign on to the Buckeyes.

Pryor would soon leave the Buckeyes and join the NFL. Upon arrival he was sacked for five games due to the punishment he was expected had he stayed in Columbus.

The suspect and Pryor will both face criminal charges. Pryor has been indicted on criminal assault and battery. He will be released from the hospital and soon booked in the Allegheny County lockup.

The two had a domestic violence incident. The NFL could punish Pryor and fine him heavily if he is found to have started the altercation.

The suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Charges for the suspect will lead to her being sentenced to five to ten in Pennsylvania. The charges for Pryor could be misdemeanor (or low felony) and it could put him in the iron college for three to five years. They will have to stay away from each other. They will have to take domestic violence and anger management classes.

GOP Geeker Got Social Media Ban After Attacking Ilhan Omar!

GOP candidate off social media after threats against Ilhan Omar
Republican candidate running to unseat a progressive lawmaker from Minnesota found herself without a digital platform.

Danielle Stella, the Minnesota version of Laura Loomer found herself permanently banned on Twitter and I think she's lost her Facebook as well.

Stella who is trying to unset Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) was banned on social media after she posted a threat to the lawmaker. She said that Omar should be tried for treason and hung.

Stella, a first-time candidate in Minnesota’s Fifth Congressional District, twice tweeted messages this week amplifying an unfounded conspiracy theory that Omar shared sensitive intelligence with Iran, according to the Washington Post.

"If it is proven @IlhanMN passed sensitive info to Iran, she should be tried for #treason and hanged," Stella posted Tuesday from her official campaign account, @2020MNCongress.

The same account reportedly published a link to a blog post that included a crude image of a stick figure hanging from the gallows.

A Twitter spokeswoman told media outlets that Stella's personal and campaign accounts were shut down for "repeated violations" of the social media platform's rules.

"My suspension for advocating for the enforcement of federal code proves Twitter will always side with and fight to protect terrorists, traitors, pedophiles and rapists," Stella told the Washington Times.

The 31-year-old former special education professional launched her campaign in June, pitching herself as the tough-on-crime candidate. Stella gained attention after a number of social media posts referencing Q'Anon, a far-right kookspiracy. She also has been arrested twice on shoplifting charges.
White privilege agitators Laura Loomer and Danielle Stella have a warm greeting.
Omar responded to Stella's tweets on the same platform. "This is the natural result of a political environment where anti-Muslim dog whistles and dehumanization are normalized by an entire political party and its media outlets," she tweeted. "Violent rhetoric inevitably leads to violent threats, and ultimately, violent acts."



For the far-white, Omar is perhaps the most talked about member of Congress besides Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY).

Being one of the two Muslim women elected to Congress is a historical achievement. She and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) became the first two Muslim women elected to Congress. They are part of the "Squad" and it includes Ocasio-Cortez and Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA). They are women of color and proud supporters of progressive causes.
The far-white has attacked Ilhan Omar relentlessly. The U.S. Capitol Police doing round-the-clock protection for the Minnesota lawmaker thanks to the death threats.
But to the far-white, they're racist, anti-Semitic, anti-American and well "you know..."

This year, Omar and Tlaib were banned entry into Israel because they were critical of the government's treatment of those in the Gaza Strip and West Bank. They actively support the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Movement (BDS).

Omar has been getting lots of death threats of the past couple of months. Two men were criminally charged with threats to her this year.

The suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

They are facing up to 10 years in federal time out for threatening a federal official.

BET's Robert Johnson: Dems Should Try Winning In 2024!

Billionaire founder of BET says Democrats are not going to beat Trump.
The founder of Black Entertainment Television is sharing his thoughts on the 2020 election and the many Democrats in the running. He paints a bleak picture of how the Democrats are going to get shellacked in November 2020.

Robert Johnson, the BET founder said in an interview he believes that candidates that running for president don't have what it takes to beat Donald J. Trump.

I have a feeling, he's right!

Now that Beto O'Rourke is out and sooner or later Kamala Harris too, the field that Trump's mocked and ridiculed throughout his entire term will land us a weak nominee. Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden had ran multiple times and are classified as the oldest candidates running. Elizabeth Warren who is one of the oldest candidates running had been ridiculed over her Native American heritage and her proposals are turnoffs to billionaires who support progressive causes. Pete Buttigieg can't pull in Black support (likely because of homophobia). None of them are the center of attention right now because of the impeachment inquiry. The onslaught of attacks from the far-white aren't being defended hard enough. They are not riding on the formula that Barack Obama used in 2008 and 2012.

Not to mention, they're attack each other over petty things.

The field is so bad, Deval Patrick and Michael Bloomberg have joined this.

Johnson, formerly a longtime Democratic voter who founded BET in 1980, told CNBC that "if you take a snapshot today, I don’t think that group is capable of beating Donald Trump, despite what the polls say."
I love my tax break, Mr. President.
"I think the president has always been in a position where it's his to lose based on his bringing a sort of disruptive force into what would be called political norms," he said.

His comments echo an interview with CNBC earlier this summer, where he said the Democratic Party has moved too far to the left. "The party in my opinion, for me personally, has moved too far to the left," he said in July.

"I think what the Democrats have to do is to be careful not to get caught up in style is stick Trump and more in substantive Trump," he said Friday to CNBC's Hadley Gamble. Johnson also commented on the newly-announced candidacy of fellow billionaire Michael Bloomberg.

"I think he's got to address the stop and frisk issue that was under his leadership when he was mayor of New York City, and I think he's got to let the African-American community know that he identifies with their issues, something that he's identified with it to some extent in New York and he's been positive on gun control and climate control and other things like that that benefit all of us," Johnson said.

If the election was held today, Trump would have 254 electoral votes right now. He would only need a handful of states he obtained in 2016. He already has Ohio and likely Florida. Without these states, Republicans can't win.

Democrats are hoping to capitalize off the public's souring of Trump. That's not so easy.

Even though a lot of a people disapprove of his job as the president, folks are willing to keep him in than have a candidate that's flawed or considered "status quo."

White folks aren't ready (and probably won't be ready) for changing the norm. They want to keep power and control. That's why it's difficult to change gun laws, reform police, tolerate religions, tolerate sexuality, and tolerance of everyone.

We Were Racially Profiled At AMC Theatres!

AMC Movie Theatres face a lawsuit from a group of Black women who were told to leave even though they purchased tickets.
The day after Thanksgiving. Black Friday folks.

The movie theater chain fired three workers out the cannon after they racially profiled a group of 15 women watching the movie "Harriet."

Members of the group 504 Queens were shocked to find that three staff members separately approached them during a two-hour film and repeatedly made them verify their ticket purchases.

They said it felt "like the 1800s" as they were "humiliated" by employees paused the film demanding the group show proof they've purchased their tickets.

Sandra Gordon, 65, told the junk food media that shortly after they got snacks, they noticed that the seats they've purchased were occupied. So they approached the employees who ran that movie theater and asked if they had better seatings.

That's when staff asked for the tickets as proof.

Gordon claims that a female worker told her "I want to see your ticket. You're in the wrong seat."

When Gordon showed her valid purchase confirmation on her cell phone, the woman left and another woman emerged. The second woman went to her and said that she "had conflict with an employee" and asked for her to leave.

Fellow movie watchers were getting annoyed with the group and shouted for them to leave as if they've done something wrong. Then another worker paused the film and demanded that group to leave the venue.

After they complained to the junk food media, AMC refunded the movie tickets and properly fired those involved out the cannon

AMC said that they will work with the group to make sure the matter is resolved.

I'm Delivering For UPS! Why Are You Harassing Me?

Georgia woman harassed a Black UPS worker.
Why can't folks just mind their business when Black men and women are just doing their jobs?

Looks like it never stops in the Donald J. Trump's Amerikkka.

A white woman was captured on camera calling the law on a black UPS worker because he made her nervous. The incident happened in Atlanta, Georgia.

Nedrick Peters II filmed the woman berate him and demand he show his worker identification.



"I'm going to need someone's information to check up on you, because I don't understand why you're walking around this neighborhood with a bunch of packages," the woman says in the video.

When Peters said to the woman he was bothering him, the woman quirks back saying his presence makes her "nervous."

"I'm not bothering you. I'm want to complain to UPS that you look very suspicious and making me nervous..... No, let me tell you why. My car's already been broken into twice. And guess what? It's a really big thing in this neighborhood for people to walk down the street for vandalism."

Peters refuses to give his name when asked and is shocked when the woman says she would be following him throughout the rest of his route.

Peters, 18 say this woman is "crazy."

Peters recorded the whole encounter in two segments. The video went to social media and it went viral. So many have saw the video as well as UPS. The parcel company has issued a statement saying that they are aware of the incident and are working to find out what happened.

D'Oh: The Simpsons Could Be Ending!

The Simpsons may have finally reached its peak.
With Disney's acquisition of 20th Century Fox, the company is working on development and growth of the Disney+ streaming service. The catalog includes Star Wars, Marvel Comics, Pixar Animation, Walt Disney Studios, ESPN, Hulu and ABC. Also in the catalog is Fox Network.

Fox is part of the major four networks. It was born into existence in 1986 and was bought by Australian born billionaire Rupert Murdoch and American billionaire Berry Diller.

Shows that exist currently on Fox include: The Masked Singer, Last Man Standing, Family Guy, Bob's Burgers, Bless the Harts, The Resident, Empire, Fox News Sunday, 9-1-1 and The Simpsons.

With the Disney takeover, I can only imagine what could happen to your beloved shows now that Disney owns the rights to the distribution and production.
How could I stay mad at you?
Danny Elfman, legendary conductor and film composer said that "the end is near."

The show that lasted over 30 years is coming to end.

The Simpsons is the longest running animated sitcom may end at season 32.


Is it time to say "Eat My Shorts" to The Simpsons? (Expect trolls to pick the dumbest answers and responses. This is an unscientific poll and we expect trolls here.

Yes. It's time to for Fox to cancel The Simpsons. It's been on too long and I believe it's time for the show to end. The show offered great laughs and memorable episodes but the time has come for our favorite show to end.
No. I believe The Simpsons will continue on. Fox has been very successful with The Simpsons. It would be almost disastrous for them to cancel the show due to Disney's ownership. I would love to see The Simpsons continue to grow and have a movie sequel in the works.
Other
Please Specify:

"From what I've heard, it is coming to an end....I don't know for a fact, but I 've heard that it will be in its last year," Elfman told the website, Joe.ie.

He went on to express his surprise at the show's success. "I'm so flabbergasted and amazed that it has lasted as long as it did … you have to realize, when I scored The Simpsons, I wrote this crazy piece of music, and I expected no one would hear it because I really did not think the show had a chance in hell."

There have long been rumors of the shows end, but Fox has continued to keep the show alive now for almost 31 years now though Disney is the new owners of The Simpsons. In recent years the show has faced criticism over some of his jokes and the character Apu Nahasapeemapetilon. The show initially began in 1989 and is now in its 31st season. You can stream every episode on Disney+ now that The Simpsons is owned by Disney.
The Simpsons are a part of American history. The animated sitcom surpassed the threshold of over 700 episodes.
The show stars Dan Castellaneta, Julie Kavner, Nancy Cartwright, Yeardley Smith, Hank Azaria and Harry Shearer. Each of these actors have provided voices of most of your favorite Simpsons characters.

Castellaneta is known for playing Homer Simpson, Barney, Krusty The Clown and Sideshow Mel.

Kavner plays Marge Simpson and her twin sisters Patti and Selma.

Cartwright plays Bart Simpson, Maggie Simpson, Nelson Muntz, Ralph Wiggum and Todd Flanders.

Smith plays Lisa Simpson.

Azaria plays Chief Wiggum, Apu, Moe, Carl, Comic Book Guy, Snake, Officer Lou and others.

Shearer plays Mr. Burns, Ned Flanders, Lenny, Reverend Lovejoy, Seymour Skinner, Dr. Hibbert, Smithers and others.

So far The Simpsons is the longest running animated series. With over 700 episodes and a movie, who know when its time for The Simpsons to fade into the limelight. However, if it does, I assure you that the series will go out with a bang and more ominous predictions for the future.

Other shows include: South Park, Spongebob SquarePants, Arthur and Family Guy.

Who The Hell Is That Weird Black Guy At The Trump Rallies?

I've been everywhere man!
Every Trump rally in the South has to have a few Black supporters in the background. However, some started to notice this Black man in the background. He's always chuckling, screaming and raising signs saying "Blacks for Trump" and "Trump & Republicans Are NOT Racist" signs in the background.

It seems he has a name and he's been doing this stuff for years.

He is known as Michael The Black Man (aka The Blacks For Trump Guy).



Known as the perennial Black face at Trump rallies, Michael The Black Man (born Maurice Woodside) is a conspiracy theorist, Black Hewbrite and anti-Black activist. He's part of this Florida religious cult called the Nation of Yahweh.

He runs a website that I'm not promoting.

He is often an outspoken supporter of Donald J. Trump. He is often brought in to hype the crowd and troll the junk food media.

The photobombing is often a fixture of Trump. Whenever Trump heads to Florida, Georgia, Louisiana and Texas, you'll see Blacks For Trump.

Woodside first met Hulon Mitchell Jr., better known as Yahweh Ben Yahweh, in 1980. Along with his brother, Ricardo, who joined the cult before he did, Woodside was reported to have played "a big role in the rise and fall of the [Yahweh ben Yahweh] cult".

His mother, Johnnie Simmons, was also a devout member of the cult; he later left the cult with his sister after his mother died. He was one of 16 members of Yahweh ben Yahweh arrested and charged with one count of murder and one count of attempted murder in 1990.
Blacks For Trump on Looney Coons.
He was found not guilty of these charges by a Florida jury in 1992, although Yahweh himself was found guilty and sentenced to 20 years in prison.

At the trial, Ricardo testified that he and Maurice attempted unsuccessfully to murder Eric Burke, a dissident member of Yahweh's cult, and that Maurice had also helped beat another cult member, Aston Green, unconscious.

Woodside subsequently became a rabid opponent of the Democratic Party, changed his name to Michael Symonette, and began a career as a musician. He later started a radio station, BOSS 104.1 FM, before reinventing himself as "Michael the Black Man".

He briefly came to media attention in September 2008, when he accused Oprah Winfrey of being the devil, and Barack Obama of being endorsed by the Ku Klux Klan, at one of Obama's speeches in Coral Gables.

In 2012, he spoke to the audience at a Rick Santorum campaign rally in Coral Springs, where he said that the Democrats were "the worst thing that ever happen [sic] to the black man." As of August 2017, he runs multiple conspiracy theory-promoting websites, including Gods2.com, which he frequently promotes on his shirt at Trump rallies.

Gabrielle Union Saw Cannon Fire At AGT Because Of Jay Leno!

Gabrielle Union and Julianne Hough's firing from AGT has a backstory.
Jimmy Kimmel, Conan O'Brien and David Letterman despise Jay Leno. You can add Gabrielle Union to the list of entertainers who are a feud with Leno. She also is feuding with reality television star and panel judge Simon Cowell.

The 47-year old entertainer was fired at America's Got Talent. She was just two months into her tenure as a judge on the NBC reality television show. She got into a heated argument with Simon Cowell, the executive producer and panelist of the show.

Union, had concerns with AGT. She brought them up regular when she joined the show in February.

They were notable events. Like Cowell smoking inside the studio. There were racist incidents and critiques of contestants' genders. Union had been addressing her complaints to NBC executives, including those who overseen the show's production.
Jay Leno told an inappropriate joke and Gabrielle Union reported it. Months later they fired her out the cannon.
They said that concerns were duly noted. However, nothing happened.

Union was informed by NBC that she was fired out the cannon. Cowell dubbed her as a "difficult" act to deal with.

Celebrity agitator Love B. Scott got wind of the controversy and also a bombshell.

Union made a strong concern about Jay Leno. The veteran comedian made a racist joke.

Leno who was a guest judge at the time made a joke about a painting. He said it "looked like something on the menu at a Korean restaurant." Union pushed for AGT to not air that segment.
Howie Mandel, Gabrielle Union, Simon Cowell, Julianne Hough and Terry Crews.
Union and Julianne Hough were both dropped from the show. On their way out, producers were making fun of their departure. Some producers claimed that Union was "too black."

Some sources confirm the issues. They spoke to Vulture on the condition of anonymity.

NBC Universal Television and Fremantle Entertainment said in a statement:

"America's Got Talent has a long history of inclusivity and diversity in both our talent and the acts championed by the show. The judging and host line-up has been regularly refreshed over the years and that is one of the reasons for AGT's enduring popularity. NBC and the producers take any issues on set seriously."

Cowell's smoking agitates Union's allergies.  She told the staff that she can't be around it, but the staff rebuffed her concerns.

Now the issues are coming to light and Union is threatening a lawsuit against Cowell, Freemantle and NBC over breach of contract.

Union is married to former NBA star Dwyane Wade.
