Trump Breaks Up American Families!

Y'all voted for this.

Donald J. Trump has driven families apart.

Over the Thanksgiving weekend, you hear stories about how some Black and Brown MAGAland supporters are being shut out of the picnic.

The Black supporters of Trump are being shut out of family gatherings.

Trump and his allies are full steam ahead on Project 2025. They will engage in a push to remove immigrants, push forth religious based laws, push for regulations on everyone else.

Thanksgiving, the annual US tradition marked by a feast, will be the first time many Americans reconcile with relatives since the divisive November 5 election.

A CBS News poll found that 71 percent of Americans will try to avoid discussing politics during the holiday.

Trump and his allies have been incompetent at worst. Now gifted with a second term, Trump will escape his accountability from criminal activities.

Those who voted for him will allow him to commit more crimes.

When his policies start affecting your life, you will have a FAFO moment.

The Irony Of Biden's Support Of Israel!

The New York Post and Fox push outrage over Biden buying a book on Palestine.

The threats of Christian and Jewish supremacy in America. Extremism is on the rise with the return of President Donald J. Trump.

Y'all voted for this.

Zionism is a dangerous philosophy that equates Israel as the Holy Land. The religious right's most extreme view of the country sees it as the place of return for Jesus of the Nazareth. 

The New York Post, a far right tabloid that demonized Vice President Kamala Harris, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Meghan the Duchess of Sussex and President Joe Biden is staunchly Zionist.

The Murdoch empire is a toxic dump. It spreads like a virus. They lost $787 million lying and it appears they have not learned their lesson.

So buying a book that criticizes Israel is antisemitic. So we can attack Muslims, Wiccan, Satanists, Buddhists, Hindu and other religions. Got it. 

If we criticize Christians, Catholics and Jews, we face criminal charges.

We can allow Christian prayer in schools, bibles in the classroom and mandatory laws based on religion. Got it.

On Friday, Biden was in Massachusetts. He was spotted with a book and it got the attention of Fox and the Post.

Biden picked up a copy of a book that described Israel as a colonial power in the face of Palestinian resistance despite his repeated support for the Jewish state. 

Biden was spotted by the press leaving Nantucket Bookworks holding a copy of "The Hundred Years’ War on Palestine: A History of Settler Colonialism and Resistance, 1917-2017" by Columbia University professor emeritus Rashid Khalidi, the New York Post reported. 

"I do not speak to the Post (or the Times for that matter), so this is not for publication, but my reaction is that this is four years too late," Khalidi told the Post of Biden holding his book. 

Rashid Khalidi.

The newspaper noted it did not agree to any terms conditioning Khalidi's response as off the record or on background.

The book argues that "the modern history of Palestine can best be understood in these terms: as a colonial war waged against the indigenous population, by a variety of parties, to force them to relinquish their homeland to another people against their will." 

It was not clear if Biden purchased the book or if it was given to him. 

Khalidi, who is of Palestinian and Lebanese descent, called the first Trump administration a "mouthpiece" for Israel and has criticized Israel over the humanitarian toll in Gaza after Hamas killed about 1,200 people inside Israel Oct. 7, 2023, in addition to kidnapping hostages, including Americans. 

"It’s perfectly unclear, reading the Israeli press, what their political objective is. I mean, ethnic cleansing. That’s not a political objective. They’re doing that. They’re driving the population of the Northern Gaza Strip into the Southern Gaza Strip. But what their political objective is, is, to me, entirely unclear, in the writings of, as far as one can tell, from the Israeli press," he said on the "Intercepted" podcast in November 2023.

Biden has repeatedly declared his support for Israel but has been criticized by Israeli supporters for putting conditions on U.S. aid to the Middle East ally and pausing shipments of heavy munitions to Israel earlier this year. 

Fox claims he did but in reality, Biden has not placed conditions on shipments.

Meanwhile, pro-Palestinian supporters, who nicknamed Biden "Genocide Joe," have increasingly criticized him and international criminal Benjamin Netanyahu over civilian casualties in Gaza. Biden has also reportedly criticized his Israeli counterpart behind closed doors, the Post reported. 

Biden and Trump are stuck on stupid.

The book, published in 2020 before Trump brokered relationships between Israel and five Muslim countries, criticized Trump for moving the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem and recognizing Israel's annexation of the Golan Heights, which it captured from Syria during the 1967 Six-Day war. 

Trump only stalled the Arab League from imposing an economic boycott on Israel with the Abraham Accords. The Arab League views Israel as an occupier of Western interests.

In the book, Khalidi wrote about Israel discriminatory policies against Palestinians.

"Settler-colonial confrontations with indigenous peoples have only ended in one of three ways: with the elimination of full subjugation of the native population, as in North America; with the defeat and expulsion of the colonizer, as in Algeria, which is extremely rare; or with the abandonment of colonial supremacy, in the context of compromise and reconciliation, as in South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Ireland," he wrote.

Does Anyone In East Cleveland Care About The Missing Children?

Where are they?

Black and Missing is an organization devoted to finding people of color who go missing but never get the mammoth coverage of missing white women and girls.

The far right tabloid, The Daily Mail has reported on the missing children of East Cleveland, Ohio. The small city has over 50 children missing since 2014.

At least 43 children, including 24 girls and 19 boys, have vanished since late 2014 from this northeast Ohio city, a Dispatch investigation found. With a population of 13,792, approximately 3.1 kids per 1,000 residents have disappeared in 10 years from East Cleveland — a rate that far exceeds Ohio's largest cities of Columbus, Cincinnati and Cleveland.

East Cleveland has a population of 16,000 residents. It has a 90% Black majority population. It is one of the poorest communities in Cuyahoga County.

The 2011–2015 median household income for residents living in East Cleveland was $19,592. Along with that, 59% of household income is less than $25,000 annually. Only 19% of households in East Cleveland have annual incomes between $25,000 and $44,000. The 2011–2015 median individual income for residents of East Cleveland was $14,442, with 52% of individual incomes being under $15,000 a year. In addition, 31% of individual incomes in East Cleveland are between $15,000 and $34,000.

The silent stories of East Cleveland.

In 2018, East Cleveland was ranked as the 4th poorest city in America. Moreover, the city had a 41.8% poverty rate along with a $19,953 median household income.

Whether it’s repeat runaways, criminal offenders, or even sexual assault evidence kit tracking, Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost said data in the state isn’t always entered thoroughly.

“All of these things have localized reporting problems that again are a function of local conditions,” Yost said. “We do our best to encourage compliance and improve assistance to remove barriers, but at the end of the day, we have to rely on our local partners that we don’t control. I am fearful of all kinds of things that fall through the cracks that include missing children. I rely on the tenacity of a worried parent more than I do a harried bureaucrat whose job it is to put data into a computer.”

Cleveland is known for the stories of Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus, Lillian Lee (formerly Michelle Knight). Berry and DeJesus run the Cleveland Family Center which is dedicated to finding missing children and adults in Northeastern Ohio.

Khalid: A New Chapter In My Life!

Singer Khalid was outed by a former male partner.

American singer comes out as gay.

He comes out after he was reportedly abusive to his former partner. The former partner details his time dating him and outed him.

R&B singer Khalid announced he was gay.

The singer, whose full name is Khalid Donnel Robinson, opened up about his sexuality after someone outed him, he explained in another post on X.

"Let’s get this straight (lmao) I am not ashamed of my sexuality! In reality it ain’t nobodies business! But I am okay with me love yall," he wrote.

I got outted and the world still continues to turn. Let’s get this straight (lmao) I am not ashamed of my sexuality! In reality it ain’t nobodies business! But I am okay with me 🖤 love yall

there yall go. next topic please lol

— Khalid (@thegreatkhalid) November 22, 2024

The Grammy-nominated singer, 26, released his third studio album "Sincere" in August.

Khalid's music is primarily R&B, pop, hip hop, and pop-soul. He sings in both the baritone and tenor ranges, effectively rendering him a baritenor. Khalid possesses a two and a half octave vocal range, ranging from the low F2 to the middle B♭4. Khalid cites his mother as his leading musical inspiration and has cited Zayn Malik, Kendrick Lamar, A$AP Rocky, Father John Misty, Frank Ocean, Grizzly Bear, Chance the Rapper, Lorde, India Arie, and James Blake as other influences.

In February 2019, Khalid released the single "Talk", and he made his debut on Saturday Night Live on March 9, 2019, performing "Talk" and "Better". His second studio album Free Spirit was released on April 5, 2019, along with an accompanying short film. It debuted atop the US Billboard 200 with 202,000 album-equivalent units (including 85,000 pure album sales) in its first week, becoming Khalid's first US number-one album.

On April 20, 2019, Khalid made history by becoming the first and only artist to occupy the entire top 5 of the Billboard R&B Songs chart.

On April 25, 2019, Billboard magazine reported that since March 2018, Khalid had landed a 59-week straight streak of hits (and counting) on the Hot 100 since his Normani collaboration "Love Lies" debuted on the chart. He charted 12 tracks (both solo hits and features) on the Hot 100 throughout the last year.

Khalid and Hugo D. Almonte. The singer and rapper were an item until they had a bitter fallout.

To promote the album, Khalid embarked on his fourth concert tour titled the Free Spirit World Tour which will visit North America, Europe and Oceania on May 18, 2019, which is set to conclude on December 5, 2019.

Following the release of Free Spirit, Khalid was reported to have become the biggest global artist on Spotify, hitting 50.4 million monthly listeners on the streaming platform, and subsequently surpassing Ariana Grande. In October 2019, Khalid and Major Lazer released a single titled "Trigger" which was also featured on Death Stranding's soundtrack.

Hugo D. Almonte, also known as Hugo Almonte, shared tweets implying he had intimate knowledge of various artists, including Khalid. One tweet suggested Khalid had attempted to set Almonte up by alleging he broke and entered Khalid's residence. This incendiary claim triggered Khalid’s subsequent confession. Responding to the situation, Khalid emphasized not ever having hidden his identity, explaining, "I wasn’t hiding anything! It’s just not any of your business."

Almonte’s decision to unearth details about their past relationship was defended by him as stemming from years of alleged emotional abuse, manipulation, and lies, culminating in his breakdown. "I tried to move on, but the constant lies, manipulation, and threats took a toll on my mental health. I was exhausted, emotionally drained," he described, illustrating the troubled relationship dynamics between him and Khalid.

Ohio Passes Bathroom Law!

Why should transgender Americans pay taxes for laws they don't agree too?

The economy, huh?

Protecting American freedoms, huh?

Y'all voted for this.

Ohio governor Mike DeWine quietly signs a controversial bathroom bill into law.

Transgender students from kindergarten through college at Ohio public and private schools will be banned from using multiperson bathrooms that fit their gender identities under a measure that DeWine said Wednesday that he has signed.

DeWine signed the law out of public view Tuesday over the objections of Democrats, teachers’ unions and civil rights groups, which had hoped that his objections to a ban on gender-affirming care for minors last year would carry through and prompt another veto. It takes effect in 90 days.

The governor issued no statement regarding the signing.

The Republican-backed measure — labeled the “Protect All Students Act” — requires public and private schools, colleges and universities to designate separate bathrooms, locker rooms and overnight accommodations “for the exclusive use” of either males and females, based on one’s gender assigned at or near birth, in school buildings and other facilities used for school-sponsored events. It contains no enforcement mechanism.

Protect all students from what? 

Is it gun violence, climate change, smoking, drug use, sexually transmitted diseases, bullying, food inequality or mental health issues? 

“It revolves around safety, security, and, I think, common sense. It protects our children and grandchildren in private spaces where they are most vulnerable,” said Republican Ohio state Sen. Jerry Cirino, the bill’s sponsor.

School employees, emergency situations and people assisting young children or someone with a disability are exempted from the restrictions and schools can still offer single-use or family bathrooms.

A shameful signature. Mike DeWine didn't address the public about it. 

Aaron Baer, president of the Center for Christian Virtue, which backed the bill, said in a statement, “Common sense is on a winning streak in America today. No student should be forced to go into the bathroom or locker room with a student of the opposite sex, and Ohio’s kids are better protected now because of Governor DeWine’s decision to sign this bill.”

The ACLU of Ohio was among the groups that had lobbied for a veto, condemning the measure as a violation of the right of privacy of LGBTQ+ Ohioans that will make them less safe.

Once again putting the lives of transgender Americans in danger. Also taking an opportunity to take away freedoms and privacy from citizens who pay their taxes, serve in their military and work like everyone else.

Equality Ohio, the state’s LGBTQ+ advocacy and legal aid organization, said the law poses risks to transgender youth “or anyone perceived as transgender by authorities.”

“We are deeply disappointed that Governor DeWine has allowed this dangerous bill to become law that puts vulnerable trans youth at risk for abuse and harassment,” Executive Director Dwayne Steward said in a statement. The group said it will continue to fight “for a state that embraces and respects all its residents.”

With DeWine’s signature, Ohio adds to the pushback that’s cropped up nationally among many Republican politicians, including President-elect Donald Trump, as transgender people have gained more visibility and acceptance on some fronts in recent years.

Twenty-six states have now adopted laws restarting or banning gender-affirming care for transgender minors. The U.S. Supreme Court is scheduled to hear arguments Dec. 4 on whether Tennessee’s ban on such treatments can continue to be enforced; any ruling is likely to impact policies in other states, too.

So if they're so focused on transwomen in restrooms, I guess they will rely on some bigot to complain to the state authorities about a co worker, a random person or a young boy in female attire going into a women's restroom.

Oh, they might as well hand them a damn bible, an Israeli flag and a Make America Great Again hat.

At least 11 states have adopted laws, like Ohio’s, barring transgender girls and women from girls and women’s bathrooms at public schools – and in some cases, in other government facilities.

And at least 24 states have laws dictating which sports competitions transgender girls and women can join.

Ohio’s bathroom bill was debated for 19 months before finally clearing the GOP-led Legislature on Nov. 13, during Transgender Awareness Week. It was tacked onto a separate piece of legislation by the Ohio House that related to the state’s College Credit Plus program, which allows high-schoolers to earn college credit.

Trump’s campaign leaned heavily into opposing transgender rights in the last weeks of his race against Vice President Kamala Harris, including Trump’s vow at a Madison Square Garden rally that “we will keep men out of women’s sports” and campaign ads saying, “Kamala’s for they/them. President Trump is for you.”

The totally not gay activist who pushed for Republicans to pass a bathroom law.

It’s not clear what policies Trump might adopt once he takes office in January. But bills relating to gender issues are already being queued up in state legislatures that come into session early in 2025.

In Texas, for instance, there are proposed measures to bar using state money to pay for “gender reassignment,” to use state money to pay to reverse gender transitions, and to give people who receive gender-affirming care before they turn 15 until they turn 25 to sue their doctors for malpractice, among others. Democrats in the Republican-dominated legislature there have also introduced some bills intended to protect people from discrimination on the basis of “gender identity or expression.”

In Ohio, a law that both bars gender-affirming care for minors and blocks transgender girls and women from participating in girls and women’s sports competitions took effect in August. It took a rocky path, though. The measure became law only after the legislature overrode DeWine’s veto. And after that, a judge put enforcement on hold for about four months before allowing it.

Our country elected a convicted felon and sexual predator to be the President of the United States. Yet, the Republican Party is focused on demonizing Black women, transgender women, immigrants, Muslims and entertainers.

The U.S. is clearly on the decline. Thanks to President Joe Biden and President-elect Donald J. Trump, I am so done with the status quo. 

Neo Nazis walk in Columbus. They are out in the open now emboldened by the election and the promise of returning to the good old days.

Gun violence is an epidemic.

Roads, bridges and waterways are crumbling.

And the Republicans want to worry about DEI, the Washington Commanders, the border, protesters and transgender people.

Republican states like Ohio, Indiana, Missouri, Iowa and Kansas will see decline.

Ohio is expected to loose 300,000 to 1.3 million residents come 2030. It means once again, the Buckeye state will lose a U.S. Representative and another opportunity to see growth in the eight cities.

Columbus which has a population of 1.02 million residents is going to be the only Midwestern city besides Chicago to see growth.

Detroit, Indianapolis, St. Louis, Cleveland, Kansas City, MO, Minneapolis and Milwaukee will decline in population.

Cincinnati, Grand Rapids, Lincoln, St. Paul, Des Moines, Council Bluffs, Topeka, Wichita, Omaha, Appleton, Madison, Wisconsin Dells and Janesville will see some growth.

The Sun Belt will be incline to more natural disasters. The growth of population in the states of Nevada, Arizona and Texas will drain the electric grid and water supply. 

The states of Florida, North Carolina and Georgia will have more hurricanes that are extremely destructive and natural resources will no longer protect the citizens. Expect animal attacks from bears, alligators, mosquitoes, wasps, fire ants, sharks, jellyfish and scorpions.

Wanda accidentally texted Jamal to come to dinner. At first Jamal was going to just ignore the text but went along and felt that she would consider it a wrong number and move on.

Wanda said to Jamal come over and get a plate. 

Since that moment, Jamal and his wife Mikaela have visited Wanda every Thanksgiving. Wanda had lost her husband Lonnie to COVID-19 and it has an impact on both of them.

The two remain life long friends and Jamal promised to keep Wanda protected for life.

Drake Big Mad At Kendrick Lamar's Year Of Wins!

The year the 6 God took huge loss.

Winners and losers of 2024.

Not like us.

Kendrick Duckworth got into Aubrey Graham's head. The rappers are damn near 40 and they are inching closer to a violent outcome.

GNX is a hit.

Kendrick Lamar released his album last week and the nation is talking. Drake is fuming about how the smash single "Not Like Us" being played on the charts.

Also five new singles are on the radio. It has Drake and Lil Wayne fuming.

In November 2024, Drake filed a petition against Universal Music Group (UMG) and Spotify under New York law claiming that they had conspired to artificially inflate the popularity of "Not Like Us" to "deceive consumers into believing the song was more popular than it was in reality". His attorneys accused UMG of violating the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) and using deceptive business practices and false advertising. UMG stated in response that the allegations were "offensive and untrue", that they would "never do anything to undermine" any artist signed to the label, and that "fans choose the music they want to hear". Drake later filed a second petition against UMG under Texas law claiming defamation by failing to halt the release of a song "falsely accusing him of being a sex offender." He also accused UMG of "funneling payments" to iHeartRadio as part of a "pay-to-play scheme" to promote "Not Like Us" on the radio.

Checkmate.

"Not Like Us" was met with widespread critical acclaim for its contagious production, Lamar's vocal performance, and scathing songwriting. GQ's Frazier Tharpe dubbed the track a leading contender for the "song of the summer". He praised how the "banger" summoned Mustard's "raucous, party-starting homegrown energy" to deliver Lamar's "haymaker" that both out-strategized Drake and celebrated their West Coast upbringings. Stereogum editors found the song to be not only an "ultra-effective" diss record but a hit filled with "vicious" allegations and history lessons. Serena Williams and M. Night Shyamalan, the writer and director of The Sixth Sense, praised "Not Like Us". Professional wrestler Shawn Michaels appreciated that his Sweet Chin Music finisher was mentioned in the song and invited Lamar and Drake to settle their differences at a WWE NXT program. Harvey Mason Jr., chief executive officer of the Recording Academy, praised the song's artistry and relevance.

Jordan Rose of Complex declared "Not Like Us" as the best track released during Lamar and Drake's feud due to its electric tone and "contagious" production, although much of the lyrics are "very questionable". Rose believes that "time will tell" if the song marked the "end conclusion" of their war, but it has already proven itself to be "the stone that stunned Goliath." Vibe's Armon Sadler ranked "Not Like Us" as the second-best track of the feud, praising the "undeniable bop" as a "masterclass" in execution. Mark Elibert from Billboard, who named it the fourth-best song, shared similar sentiments.

Pitchfork named "Not Like Us" as the third-best song released in the 2020s so far. In his accompanying excerpt, Alphonse Pierre declared the line "Certified Lover Boy? Certified pedophiles" as the "defining" lyric of the decade, in ways that are "unsettling and amazing and troubling and funny." Other publications such as Complex, HipHopDX, The Ringer, and The Root ranked "Not Like Us" as one of the greatest diss tracks of all time.

La presidenta mexicana Claudia Sheinbaum advierte a Trump que ella no es la indicada!

Mexico's president warns U.S. that their partnership will end if Trump pushes his policies too far.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum Warns Trump She Ain't The One!

I have a feeling that Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau and Mexican President Sheinbaum would have preferred a Joe Biden or Kamala Harris presidency. 

But alas, the U.S. voters picked a moron.

I said do not underestimate Donald J. Trump. His followers and new allies carried him into a new term. Now Trump, J.D. Vance, Elon Musk, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Stephen Miller, Tulsi Gabbard, Marco Rubio, Linda McMahon, Elise Stefanik and Mike Huckabee will further America's decline.

Biden and Harris already drove it down because of fucking Israel. Now a Trump presidency almost ensures the Palestinians will have no chance at freedom.

It will take a South African style of "We are the world" to encourage a boycott and push for sanctions on the evil apartheid ethnostate. Israel cannot exist as it is today. 

Israel gotta go. 

No to white nationalist religious ethnostates being funded by American taxpayers and American military. Let Israel fight its own conflicts and keep our nose out it.

President Joe Biden, President-elect Donald J. Trump and Congress will not listen. They will call you antisemitic, a terrorist sympathizer, get you fired from your job, try to arrest you and/or censor you.

Mexico, Canada, Barbados, France, Turkey, Great Britain, Spain, Ireland, Iran, Brazil, Saudi Arabia and Lebanon will arrest Israeli regime prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, former defense minister Yoav Gallant and president Issac Herzog.

Trump being the puppet of Israeli and Russian interests will retaliate by doing tariffs and accusing our North American trade partners of being the reasons for immigrant surges, fentanyl and crime.

Trump is trying to impose tariffs on China, Mexico and Canada.

These countries warn him that they ain't tolerating it and will throw their own at him and pull out of trade deals.

They also remind him about his first term failures.

Y'all voted for this.

Sheinbaum hits back at Trump and told him directly if he imposes tariffs or make claims that Mexico will pay for a border wall, the country will no longer assist in any issues involving the United States.

That includes the border, weather service sharing, trade deals and the use of the Mexican military when it comes to war.

Trump threatened 25% import duties on Mexican goods if the country doesn’t stop the flow of drugs and migrants across the border.

Sheinbaum said she was willing to engage in talks on the issues, but said drugs were a U.S. problem.

“One tariff would be followed by another in response, and so on until we put at risk common businesses,” Sheinbaum said, referring to U.S. automakers that have plants on both sides of the border.

She said Tuesday that Mexico had done a lot to stem the flow of migrants, noting “caravans of migrants no longer reach the border.” However, Mexico’s efforts to fight drugs like the deadly synthetic opioid fentanyl — which is manufactured by Mexican cartels using chemicals imported from China — have weakened in the last year.

Sheinbaum said Mexico suffered from an influx of weapons smuggled in from the United States, and said the flow of drugs “is a problem of public health and consumption in your country’s society.”

The worst is yet to come.

Sheinbaum also criticized U.S. spending on weapons, saying the money should instead be spent regionally to address the problem of migration. “If a percentage of what the United States spends on war were dedicated to peace and development, that would address the underlying causes of migration,” she said.

Sheinbaum’s bristly response suggests that Trump faces a much different Mexican president than he did in his first term.

Back in late 2018, former President Andrés Manuel López Obrador was a charismatic, old-school politician who developed a chummy relationship with Trump. The two were eventually able to strike a bargain in which Mexico helped keep migrants away from the border — and received other countries’ deported migrants — and Trump backed down on the threats.

But Sheinbaum, who took office Oct. 1, is a stern leftist ideologue trained in radical student protest movements, and appears less willing to pacify or mollify Trump.

“We negotiate as equals, there is no subordination here, because we are a great nation,” Sheinbaum said, while adding, “I think we are going to reach an agreement.”

But Gabriela Siller, director of economic analysis of the financial group Banco Base, fears the personality clash could escalate things into brinkmanship; Trump clearly hates to lose.

“Trump may have just tossed the threat out there, as he does,” Siller said. “But Mexico’s response, that we’re going to respond to you with tariffs, that will make Trump really impose them.”

It’s not clear how serious Trump’s threat is. The U.S.-Mexico-Canada free trade agreement forbids just imposing tariffs on other member countries. And it’s not clear whether the economy could even tolerate sudden levies on imports: Auto plants on both sides of the border rely on each other for parts and components, and some production lines could screech to a halt.

“It is unacceptable and would cause inflation and job losses in Mexico and the United States,” Sheinbaum said, while offering to talk about the issues. “If tariffs go up, who will it hurt? General Motors,” she said.

“Dialogue is the best path to achieve understanding, peace and prosperity for our two countries,” Sheinbaum said. “I hope our teams can meet soon.”

Late Monday, Trump said he would impose a 25% tax on all products entering the country from Canada and Mexico, and an additional 10% tariff on goods from China, as one of his first executive orders.

The tariffs, if implemented, could dramatically raise prices for American consumers on everything from gas to automobiles to agricultural products. The U.S. is the largest importer of goods in the world, with Mexico, China and Canada its top three suppliers, according to the most recent U.S. Census data.

“On January 20th, as one of my many first Executive Orders, I will sign all necessary documents to charge Mexico and Canada a 25% Tariff on ALL products coming into the United States, and its ridiculous Open Borders,” he wrote.

He said the new tariffs would remain in place “until such time as Drugs, in particular Fentanyl, and all Illegal Aliens stop this Invasion of our Country!”

“Both Mexico and Canada have the absolute right and power to easily solve this long simmering problem. We hereby demand that they use this power,” he went on, “and until such time that they do, it is time for them to pay a very big price!”

Schwan's Food Services Ran Out Of Gas!

Schwan's/Yelloh will no longer travel America's roads.

The end game.

Y'all voted for this.

President Joe Biden and President-elect Donald J. Trump will drive America into the ground thanks to their stubborn ways. They are the reminder of white privilege and the status quo of 20th Century politics in the 21st Century.

Trump will inherit a stable economy. However, this second round will assure he will carry on the disastrous policies he brought in his first term.

Marshall, Minnesota company Yelloh formerly known as Schwan's Food Services will shutter at the end of the week. It will be absorbed with Omaha Steaks and a potential company will likely take over.

After 72 years in business, the company cited numerous economic challenges and evolving consumer behaviors as key reasons for the closure.

The company will take the next two months to wind down operations. The last day to purchase products will be Friday, Nov. 8.

Schwan's Company became a leader in the home delivery of frozen foods. The company's news release notes Schwan's became the country's largest frozen food delivery company with the largest fleet of freezer trucks.

In 2018, the business was split, with the Schwan's Company being sold to a South Korean company for $1.8 billion. The delivery side of the business, Schwan's Home Delivery, was not part of the sale. In 2022, Schwan's Home Delivery announced it would rebrand, going from Schwan's to Yelloh.

In a statement, the company CEO Bernardo Santana wrote:

"It’s with heavy hearts that we made the difficult decision to cease operations of Yelloh.

After 25,000 Lebanese Killed, The Israeli Regime Agrees To A Temporary Ceasefire!

Will someone get rid of this guy?

Israel is not going to hold to its obligations. Rest assured this ceasefire is more loading of American weapons. President Joe Biden and President-elect Donald J. Trump continue to suck the cock of Israel.

Biden announced that the U.S. has anchored a temporary ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, the Southern Lebanese resistance group. All of this happened after the election and right as that idiot returns back to power.

The U.S. labeled Hezbollah a terrorist group. 

The Israeli Defense Force has lost thousands of members with their invasion of Lebanon.

Hezbollah is planning on hitting up Israel because of their indiscriminate attacks in the capital of Beirut.

The ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon’s Hezbollah militants began early Wednesday as a region on edge wondered whether it will hold.

The ceasefire announced Tuesday is a major step toward ending nearly 14 months of fighting sparked by the ongoing war in Gaza between Israel and Hamas.

There were no immediate reports of alleged violations of the truce, and there were signs of celebration in Beirut. But Israel has said it will attack if Hezbollah breaks the agreement.

The ceasefire calls for an initial two-month halt to fighting and requires Hezbollah to end its armed presence in southern Lebanon, while Israeli troops are to return to their side of the border. Thousands of additional Lebanese troopsand U.N. peacekeepers would deploy in the south, and an international panel headed by the United States would monitor compliance.

An Israeli military spokesman, in an Arabic-language X post in the first half-hour of the ceasefire, warned evacuated residents of southern Lebanon to not head home yet, saying the military remained deployed there.

The ceasefire began at 4 a.m. Wednesday, a day after Israel carried out its most intense wave of airstrikes in Beirut since the start of the conflict that in recent weeks turned into all-out war. At least 42 people were killed in strikes across the country, according to local authorities.

The ceasefire does not address the devastating war in Gaza, where Hamas is still holding dozens of hostages and the conflict is more intractable.

There appeared to be lingering disagreement over whether Israel would have the right to strike Hezbollah if it believed the militants had violated the agreement, something Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu insisted was part of the deal but which Lebanese and Hezbollah officials have rejected.

Israel’s security Cabinet approved the U.S.-France-brokered ceasefire agreement after Netanyahu presented it, his office said. U.S. President Joe Biden, speaking in Washington, called the agreement “good news” and said his administration would make a renewed push for a ceasefire in Gaza.

The Biden administration spent much of this year trying to broker a ceasefire and hostage release in Gaza but the talks repeatedly sputtered to a halt. President-elect Donald Trump has vowed to bring peace to the Middle East without saying how.

Florida Woman Gets A Quarter For Ajike "AJ" Owens Murder!

Florida woman who shot and killed a mother of four after a dispute gets 25 years.

Winners and losers of 2024.

In the stupid state of Florida, the woman who terrorized a neighborhood for years fatally shot a neighbor after she hit a child. Now the conviction leads to a sentencing. 

Susan Lorincz, 60, was convicted in August of killing Ajike “A.J.” Owens, 35, by firing a single shot from her .380-caliber handgun in June 2023. She had faced a maximum of 30 years behind bars. Circuit Judge Robert Hodges opted for a slightly lesser term amid evidence that Lorincz had been abused as a child and had mental health problems.

“The shooting was completely unnecessary in this case,” Hodges said during an afternoon hearing. “The shooting, I find, was based more in anger than in fear.”

The shooting was the culmination of a long-running argument between the two neighbors over Owens’ children playing in a grassy area near both of their houses in Ocala, about 80 miles (130 kilometers) northwest of Orlando.

Prosecutors said Owens had come to Lorincz’s home after her children complained that she had thrown roller skates and an umbrella at them, which Lorincz denied. Trial testimony showed Owens, a mother of four young children, was pounding on Lorincz’s door and yelling, leading Lorincz to claim self-defense in shooting her neighbor.

Lorincz told detectives in a videotaped interview that she feared for her life. She also said she had been harassed for most of the three years she had lived in the neighborhood. Jurors who heard the trial evidence did not agree that the shooting was in self-defense.

Now the family will file a civil lawsuit against the convicted felon.

In a statement to the judge, Lorincz apologized to Owens’ family but said she was “literally terrified” of Owens the night of the shooting.

“I so wish I could go back and change things so she was still here,” Lorincz said. “I never intended to kill anyone.”

Owens’ family pushed for the maximum prison sentence after Lorincz was convicted by an all-white jury. Owens’ mother, Pamela Dias, said in court Monday that she now is the sole caregiver of her daughter’s four children and that they are deeply traumatized by the killing.

“We’re hurting with a pain that will never, never go away,” Dias said. “There’s a hole in our heart that will never mend. Susan destroyed our family.”

Lorincz’s attorney, Assistant Public Defender Amanda Sizemore, sought a more lenient sentence, an unspecified term below the 11.5 years in prison that is the lowest for her crime under state guidelines. Sizemore said in court documents that there were several reasons to justify a downward departure, including a mental disorder and claims that Owens was the aggressor and under “extreme duress” during the confrontation.

Ajike should be alive to see her children grow up.

The judge said such a departure was not warranted, especially considering the impact of their mother’s violent death on her children.

“They’ll live their whole lives without their mother, which I think is a very significant harm inflicted by Ms. Lorincz,” Hodges said.

There were protests in the Black community in Ocala when prosecutors took weeks to charge Lorincz with manslaughter, a lesser count than second-degree murder, which carries a potential life prison sentence. Marion County, which includes Ocala, has a Black population of about 12%, according to census figures.

Crime Pays!

U.S. prosecutor Jack Smith moves to drop charges against Trump.

Winners and losers of 2024.

Y'all voted for this.

The United States moves to dismiss the criminal charges against President-elect Donald J. Trump. Federal judge Tanya Chutkan, the U.S. District of the District of Columbia has approved the authorization to drop charges against Trump.

The Supreme Court allowed Trump immunity from criminal prosecution when it comes to his final days in power. Now returning in power, a president-elect has power.

The lame duck president authorized a peaceful transfer and now the Senate will either confirm the nominees of the new cabinet or wait to til the new session.

The Attorney General Merrick Garland has concluded his investigation into the Trump election interference scheme.

This shows how white privilege and corruption will exist with Trump.

The 78 year old white privilege will continue to violate his oath of office. Trust me, he will violated his duties once again and be impeached again.

Chutkan on Monday swiftly granted special counsel Jack Smith’s motion to dismiss the case following Trump’s election victory. 

“The court will therefore grant the Government leave to dismiss this case,” Chutkan wrote. 

She dismissed it without prejudice, leaving open a theoretical possibility that the government can bring charges again after Trump leaves office.

But the two-page opinion officially marks the end of the historic indictment brought last year, which charged Trump with four felonies over his efforts to overturn his election loss to President Biden that culminated in the Jan. 6 Capitol attack.

When a fool wins!

Earlier in the day, Smith moved to drop both of his criminal cases against Trump in alignment with a Justice Department policy against prosecuting a sitting president. 

“After careful consideration, the Department has determined that OLC’s prior opinions concerning the Constitution’s prohibition on federal indictment and prosecution of a sitting President apply to this situation and that as a result this prosecution must be dismissed before the defendant is inaugurated,” Smith wrote, referencing the Justice Department’s Office of Legal Counsel. 

Smith has similarly asked to drop his appeal seeking to revive Trump’s criminal charges in Florida, where the former president stands accused of mishandling classified documents and obstructing the government’s efforts to retrieve them. 

The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has not yet approved the dismissal but is expected to do so. The court’s procedures enable the clerk to sign off without requiring any judge’s approval.
