A courageous young boy speaks on the steps of the State Capitol of North Carolina and pleads with Governor McCrory to veto the worst immigration bill in the country.
Have some compassion, Gov. McCrory! Your hatred toward fellow humans is showing!
You're the reason why Moral Monday is here it is because of you, Thom Tillis, Art Pope, Jesse Helms, Donald Trump, Bill O'Reilly, Rep. Berger are making NC the laughing stock of the nation.
This is what the bigot wants his campaign against immigration to be:
Gov. Pat McCrory's bigoted appeals to right wing conservatives and racists by slamming Hillary Clinton. How evil he can be!
The soul of New Orleans Cajun cuisine passed away Thursday.
The Cajun King has passed away today according to CNN.
Louisiana Chef Paul Prudhomme, credited with helping popularize Cajun and Creole cuisine, died Thursday, according to K-Paul's, the New Orleans restaurant he owned.
Prudhomme, who was 75, died in New Orleans after a brief illness, the restaurant said.
"Paul was the one who not only put Louisiana food, our food, Cajun and Creole food, on the map, but he was also the one who started the American food revolution that flourishes today," Poppy Tooker, host of the "Louisiana Eats!" radio show, told CNN.
His 1975 appointment as executive chef at the upscale New Orleans restaurant Commander's Palace helped break the assumption that a fine-dining restaurant had to have a French chef, Tooker said.
His upbringing as one of 13 children born to Louisiana sharecroppers also helped shape an approach to cooking that favored fresh, local ingredients and grew into the wildly popular farm-to-table movement of recent years, Tooker said.
Prudhomme was one of the nation's first celebrity chefs, and his restaurants attracted huge crowds and widespread acclaim. He hosted several cooking shows and authored nine cookbooks, some of them bestsellers.
His recipe for blackened redfish, first served at K-Paul's, became so popular state fisheries officials had to impose limits to save the species from overfishing, Tooker said. He also created and marketed a successful line of seasonings sold in groceries nationwide.
New Orleans Times-Picayune food editor Judy Walker called Prudhomme a "legend" who "changed New Orleans food forever."
Commander's Palace, the well-regarded New Orleans restaurant where Prudhomme was executive chef before opening K-Paul's in 1979, tweeted that its staff was saddened by the news.
"He was well loved," the restaurant said.
Paul Prudhomme made New Orleans cuisine so freaking good. World News Today send our condolences to the family of Paul Prudhomme.
The Million Man March turns 20. The Nation of Islam's Honorable Louis Farrakhan and many speakers appear at the National Mall to discuss the issues facing Black America.
The Million Man March returns to Washington. This will celebrate 20 years since the first march upon the National Mall.
Justice or Else: The 20th Anniversary of the Million Man March: Justice or Else, sometimes abridged as Justice or Else or stylized as Justice or Else!, is a movement and a march in Washington D.C. that is part of the Black Lives Matter activist movement. Louis Farrakhan announced his "Justice or Else" event commemorates the 20th anniversary of the October 16, 1995 Million Man March.
Minister Louis Farrakhan will headline the event. It will outline a lot of things. One in particular is the Black male inside out. I managed to hear the speech and I strongly agree with the premise of the minister.
One thing that caught me was the instructions. His instructions are basically keep fighting for justice and ignore the noise. The noise (i.e. that annoying conservative agitator, David Clarke, Jr., O'Loofus and that network) will take his speech out of context and make it seem like he's calling for the death of White America. He doesn't call for any death of human beings. He said that arrogant America will be condemned by God. He said that the rich will continue to push the poor into fighting one another.
He said that Black men should keep BITCH out of their mouths.
He said that Black men should learn that killing one another doesn't bring strength. It brings weakness and it's a plan.
He slammed former Ferguson officer Darren Wilson for being a part of the system of corrupt lawmen who take joy in the pain and sorrow of Black America.
I wish I would have went tot the March. I would love to find my place in the world.
Over 50 women came forward. Cosby still denies sexually assault them.
So over 50 women accused the entertainer of sexual misconduct.
There was an explosive interview on Dateline. There were over 27 women who sat with Kate Snow to tell the nation that Dr. William H. Cosby, Jr. is a nasty pervert.
Bill Cosby, the famous comedian and America's day seen his legacy collapse before his eyes.
The guy who told Black men to pull his pants up is caught with his pants down. And now he's facing an embarrassing moment in which all the women who idolized him now scorning him.
He would groom actresses and model at his private home. He would engage in conversation with the women and give them a drink. The drink would have a funny taste in it. After eight hours, you're in his bedroom with no clothes and a satisfied comedian.
When you threaten to tell the law on him, he would cut a $$$$$$$$ check.
I mean he's worth $430 million. From his sitcoms, movies, animations, books, endorsements, and comedy albums, he made millions.
A defamation lawsuit brought against Bill Cosby by three women who say he sexually abused them decades ago can move forward, a federal judge in Massachusetts ruled Friday, delivering a legal blow to the comedian as he attempts to defend himself against accusations of sexual assault by dozens of women.
Over a two dozen women went to NBC to share their horrific experience with America's dad.
The women claim in their lawsuit that Cosby's representatives damaged their reputations by denying their allegations in sometimes disparaging language. Cosby's lawyers had asked the judge to dismiss their suit, arguing that the remarks were personal opinions protected by the First Amendment and legal declarations made in his defense.
But in his ruling Friday, U.S. District Court Judge Mark Mastroianni rejected Cosby's bid to dismiss the case before it ever goes to a jury.
The women — Tamara Green, Therese Serignese and Linda Traitz — have accused Cosby of drugging them and then having unwanted sexual contact with them.
The comments they claim were defamatory range from statements dismissing their accusations as "ridiculous claims" and "absurd fabrication" to longer remarks that sought to discredit the accusers.
Keisha Knight-Pulliam can't defend Bill no more. She sits with celebrity agitator Wendy Williams to discuss the accusations.
"As the old saying goes, 'consider the source," ended one statement that touched on Traitz's criminal and prison record.
In his ruling, Mastroianni rejects Cosby's argument that the statements were legal declarations made in self-defense.
"The court recognizes that some jurisdictions do apply a version of the conditional self-defense privilege, which allows individuals, in certain circumstances, to publish defamatory responsive statements necessary to defend their reputation. However ... such a privilege does not permit a defendant to knowingly publish false statements of fact," the judge wrote in his 38-page ruling.
Malcolm Jamal-Warner said he can't defend Bill.
Telephone messages left for four attorneys who represent Cosby in the Massachusetts lawsuit were not immediately returned. Cosby has a house in Shelburne Falls, in western Massachusetts.
"As we'd expected and hoped, the judge rejected every one of Mr. Cosby's attempts to throw the case out of court and allowed the case to proceed," said Joseph Cammarata, an attorney who represents the three women.
"We will take Mr. Cosby's deposition at the earliest possible moment. My clients look forward to moving the case forward and to restoring their good names and reputations."
"Dateline NBC" aired a special Friday night in which 29 Cosby accusers were interviewed together about their allegations. Cosby has never been charged with a crime and he has denied the allegations.
Cosby was deposed Friday in a Los Angeles case against him. Lawyer Gloria Allred, the defendant's lawyer in that case, said she would speak on the deposition Saturday in Boston. A third lawsuit in also pending in Los Angeles.
Court documents unsealed in July show Cosby admitting in 2005 to carrying on extramarital relationships with several women, including some who accuse him of sexual assault. The testimony added to the unsavory details that have all but wrecked his nice-guy reputation as TV's Dr. Cliff Huxtable and made a mockery of his preaching about decency and personal responsibility.
Raven-Symoné is a certified nut job. She says that if she wouldn't hire any Black sounding names. Yet, her name is!
The View co-host is a very eccentric woman. The entertainer gave up the squeaky clean Cosby, Disney kid image and came out a raging lesbian and celebrity agitator. She's a kush rolling, Marlboro Light smoking, multi-hair dying, nutjob who fell off the wagon.
Since the Cheetah Girls broke up, Raven went wild. She had a secret pregnancy. She got involved with bisexual model/actress AzMarie Livingston and running her mouth like she's a genius of Black culture.
Raven-Symoné Pearlman joined The View in Spring 2015 along with Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Bahar, ABC's Paula Faris, comedian Michelle Collins, actress/activist Candace Cameron-Bure (of Full House fame).
The ladies debate the latest "HOT TOPICS" and often get a controversial theme going.
Today on Friday's episode of The View, Raven-Symoné does something that's not so Raven.
She pops off about the know-hows to an earning a career. She claims that having "Black names" won't get you hired.
On a segment titled "Are You Judged By Your Name?" the former Cheetah Girl, donning a fire engine-red mohawk, said she wouldn't hire anyone with a "black" sounding name.
“Can we take back 'racist' and say 'discriminatory,' because I think thats a better word," she said while laughing. "And I’m very discriminatory against the words like the ones they were saying in those names. I’m not going to hire you if your name is Watermelondrea. That’s just not going to happen. I’m not going to hire you.”
Cue the irony.....What's her name?
I bet you money, that if she wasn't a somewhat successful entertainer, I bet you she wouldn't get a job because she has a "BLACK" sounding name.
I miss them days when she played a "bubblehead" on television and not one in real life.
Getting upset over the president is becoming routine for conservatives.
There was a mass shooting at Northern Arizona University. Three injured and one died after a fight happened outside the campus.
World News Today send our condolences to Colin Brough, the victim who was gunned down by this callous terrorist. There was a fight inside the dorm and it led to a shooting.
Steven Jones is an 18 year old freshman who the law apprehended today. The terrorist is being held in lockup on capital.
Northern Arizona University is located in Flagstaff.
While another mass shooting happened today, one week ago a terrorist mass murdered nine innocent lives at Umpqua Community College. These lives were taken callously by a man who felt the world wasn't in his favor.
He felt that being rejected by society triggered his mass murder spree.
He had legal right to obtain firearms. Now the family of the victims are expecting a visit from President Barack Obama. When he heads to Roseberg, Oregon, he'll be met with protesters as well.
These protesters are upset that the president "politicized" a tragedy. They rather see the president head back to Washington. Wondering who gave them this idea that the president "politicize" tragedies?
Well it's no surprise that network that devotes its entire shows to trashing Obama had a hand in it.
When the president told the junk food media the American public became numb to mass shootings and the time to politicize this is now, the conservatives went bonkers over it.
Now again, the conservatives believe that the president will take their guns.
On The O'Loofus Factor. Bill-O hosted this asshole on his program. This asshole from some Roseberg conservative publication was telling the president to go away.
David Jaques, publisher of the Roseburg Beacon said, "Obama not welcome here to 'Stand on the Corpses of Our Loved Ones.'"
This asshole claims that the president's remarks were inappropriate and disrespectful.
Assholes blame Obama for the Umpqua shooting. This biggest asshole on cable news brings on a conservative activist to bemoan the president's visit to Roseberg.
So talking about mass shootings being a daily occurrence is inappropriate. It's disrespectful for the president to come to a town to console grieving families. It's not in the best interest to pass a universal background check law.
God damn the Republicans and their conservative agitating allies are stupid.
Gun sales often go through the roof when mass shootings happen. Almost immediately when a mass shooting becomes a national story in which President Barack Obama speaks on it, the NRA and the tiny balls spread the gospel of a federal gun grab.
Pathetic politics and misplaced outrage. Another reason to why Republicans and conservatives are fucking up the country.
Majority Leader, Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and Rep. Renee Ellmers (R-NC) are accused of having an affair. This shocking news may have caused McCarthy to withdraw his bid to replace House Weeper Rep. John Boehner (R-OH).
Did the insurgents set Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) up?
The Majority Leader withdrew his bid to become the next House Speaker. This shocking news has the nation talking. A shoe-in choice for the Speakership abruptly ends his bid to be one of the most powerful leaders in Washington.
McCarthy was confident when he went up to Capitol Hill yesterday. Now he's clammed up for some reason. A conservative activist may have pulled the curtain away.
The Freedom Caucus are causing total chaos. Rep. Randy Weber (R-TX), Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), Rep. Raul Labrador (R-ID), Tim Huelskamp (R-KS), and Rep. Joe Barton (R-TX).
This focused on the Majority Leader's personal life.
There's rumors going around about the Majority Leader being caught up in an affair.
Some are accusing the Majority Leader of having an affair with Rep. Renee Ellmers (R-NC).
This may have been one of the reasons to why McCarthy ended his bid to be the Speaker of the House. A Chicago GOP donor may have sparked the rumor. Steve Baer sent the email with the subject line: "Kevin, why not resign like Bob Livingston?"
Erick Erickson of RedState went to the AM dials to push the rumor.
He said that Ellmer's snarky endorsement of Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT), almost sounding like a "spurn girlfriend".
"He has not spoken to me personally for my vote, and Jason Chaffetz has, so that’s where I am right now. At this point I will be casting a vote for Jason Chaffetz," said Ellmers, who is facing a GOP primary challenger.
"I can’t vote for someone who doesn’t ask for my vote. I’m apparently not high on his priority list," she added.
There's rumors that McCarthy and Ellmers may resign from Congress. That's coming from the banned Twitter twat Charles C. Johnson. The two deny the affair and thoughts of resigning. However, they've sure as hell run away from the cameras.
Now Weeper John Boehner (R-OH) postponed his walk of shame. The Republicans will go back to hammer out their issues before a floor vote is given.
The Republicans are in such disarray.
Some are calling for that pompous jackass Newt Gingrich to muscle his way back into Congress.
Many in the establishment hate Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) and Rep. Daniel Webster (R-FL). They will not support them for bid. The establishment is begging Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) to jump in. Ryan was famous for being the vice presidential nominee for perennial loser Mitt Romney.
Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) is rethinking the House Speaker bid. The insurgents will likely try to derail his bid.
The sausage factory founded by insurgents, Rep. Dave Brat (R-VA), Rep. Tim Huelskamp (R-KS), Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), and Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) vow to derail Ryan. They refuse to support candidates who are too close to Boehner. They believe Ryan is a failed candidate.
Again, I want to make this clear. What you doing in your house isn't my business! But if you're trying to pass laws that gets into my business: You're going to be exposed.
I don't give two fucks what goes on in Kevin McCarthy and Renee Ellmers's personal lives. They can have an affair. They're human. Love is powerful. We can't stop emotional feelings.
Nonetheless, these lawmakers are so fucking ridiculous. These are the lawmakers who scorn upon single parent households, people in need of state and federal assistance, and gay couples wanting to get married.
These are the people who believe the path to safety in this country is basically take away the freedoms from Blacks, Hispanics, immigrants and practicing Muslims.
These are the people who are pro-life when it comes to abortions but pro-death when it comes to guns and the death penalty. It's ridiculous.
Congress is extremely inept.
Republicans are going to hand the Congress back to Democrats.
