Trump's Mouth Ruins The Water In Flint!

Trump gets schooled by Black pastor.

Republican nominee Donald Trump made an unexpected trip to Flint, Michigan.

He paid a visit to the city to tour a water treatment plant and attend a Black church.

Trump's outreach to Blacks went awry. Speaking to about 70 people, Trump starts laying into his opponent inside Bethel United Methodist Church. Trump attempted to blame his opponent for the crisis in Flint, but it was stopped at the gate.

Rev. Faith Green Timmons, pastor of the church interrupted him asked him stay focused on the progress in Flint.

"Mr. Trump, I invited you here to thank us for what we've done in Flint, not to give a political speech."

"Oh, oh, oh, Ok, that's good," Trump said. "Then I'm going back to Flint."

Trump called the water crisis a "shame".

Flint's mayor Karen Weaver said that Trump's visit to the city is a photo-op and it deprives valuable time from the workers trying to fix the water systems. She is a supporter of Hillary Clinton. Weaver was in Washington, DC lobbying Congress to pass emergency funding for her city.

She hasn't forgotten the debates in which Trump and the other 16 turds failed to mention the crisis in Flint. Clinton has also face criticism from this. She only appeared in Flint during the debates and hasn't been back since. She would loss Michigan to Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) in the Democratic primaries.

The Kellyanne Conway approach seems to be working for Trump for the time being. The Republican is catching up with Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton in Ohio and Florida. The Republican is trying to make outreach to the Black community. It's like the junk food media's forgotten about Trump and his acolytes.

They forgot about Trump supporters punching Black protesters.

They forgot about Trump running this "law and order" nonsense with Wisconsin sheriff David Clarke.

He is retweeting from White extremists.

His allies are racial agitators like David Duke and Stephen Bannon.

His best buddies are Roger "Pervert" Ailes, Old Fart Rush Limbaugh, Roger "Shitface" Stone, Sean "Softball" Hannity, Breitbart and internet creeper Matt Drudge.

They forgotten that Trump questioned President Barack Obama's birth certificate and his religion.

I know I have not forgotten that Trump and Republicans deliberate attempts to undermine Black America.

Call this the "New Trump". Another pivot. A more discipline Trump who will say things from a teleprompter and try to actually lay out a plan to help millions of Americans he scorned during his presidential run.

HuffPo Wants To Help Free Rapper Mac!

McKinley "Mac" Phipps with his son on the grounds of a Louisiana iron college.The former rapper may be freed from jail after evidence emerge showing he wasn't the shooter.

From the days of being on No Limit to the nights at the Louisiana iron college, McKinley Phipps, Jr., formerly known as Mac is hoping that he may get a "free card".  For 15 years, Mac's seen bars and it wasn't inside a studio.

Now it seems like he may soon have a chance to get his freedom. The 39-year old former rapper has denied participating in this tragedy. And it seems like there's a possibility he may be freed from the iron college.

In 2014, Medill Justice Project in partnership with The Lens looked into the matter. After a three month investigation into Mac's conviction, it revealed details of a key-witness being intimidated into identifying him as the killer. The Huffington Post's David Lohr published the results of a four month review into the conviction.

Four witness in regards to the shooting told HuffPost that they were threatened, intimidated or outright ignored by investigators. Mac's family also obtained affidavits from many of the individuals in an effort to get him a new trial.

The prosecutors had no forensic evidence. It didn't bother to perform ballistics on the gun belonging to another man who confessed.

I can tell you that Mac was one of the hardest rappers on No Limit. The label founded by Percy Miller, Sr. known to the world as Master P. He released two albums on the label, Shell Shocked and World War III on the label.

In 2001, Mac was convicted of killing Barron C. Victor, Jr. He was served a 30 year to LIFE bid at the Elayn Hunt Lockup in St. Gabriel, Louisiana.

The former fiance of Victor, Samantha Barnes believes that Mac was railroaded by the justice system.

Mac's case tells the story of how being a rapper who paid the price for his freedom of speech. He spoke of murder and drugs. He was talking about his struggles. The Louisiana courts saw that as a reason to put in the iron college for LIFE.

Hopefully Mac gets a new trial. He deserves the right to a fair trial given Louisiana's history of locking up Black people at a faster rate than any other race in that state.




Kid Rock: F**k That Bitch Ass Kaepernick!

Asshole rocker goes after Colin Kaepernick and his supporters.


Looks like Colin Kaepernick of the San Francisco 49ers isn't alone in his protest. Many others soon followed and its getting major attention from the junk food media. Some of the conservative agitators are not pleased with Kaepernick and want him to be punished.

It's riled up Kid Rock, the former rapper turned rebel rock star. He's performing in a concert and had called out Kaepernick in three words.

"FUCK COLIN KAEPERNICK!" It was said at the Fenway Park in Boston.

Expect more of this nonsense from the guy who flies the flag of the losing side. A guy who was born Detroit back pretends to be Alabama. Kid Rock, an entertainer who supports Donald Trump and the ignorance that follows.

He was performing his song "Born Free" when he broke out of song to go after the NFL star.

While many came out in support of Kaepernick, many others were trashing on him and those who support him.

Fashion model Kate Upton slammed the NFL for allowing this to happen.
He's not stopping and it's sparked a movement.
"Sitting or kneeling down during the national anthem is a disgrace to those people who have served and currently serve our country", said Upton on social media. "Sitting down during the national anthem on September 11th is even more horrific."

Kaepernick dismisses the criticism and vows more to come.

"I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses Black people and people of color. To me, this is bigger than football, and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder."

I support Colin Kaepernick and many others in refusing to stand for the national anthem.

Just yesterday, I was pulled over by the Dayton Police. They pulled me over for no reason. They claimed that I was going back and forth observing them doing their jobs. I took a couple of pictures of the police around a damaged vehicle. The officers claimed that their supervisor told them to pull me over. So I asked for his supervisor. He refused. The officers made some bullshit excuse to why I fit the description. They believed that I had something to do with someone who stole a vehicle and I could be the pickup. Again, I said that photography is not a crime and I have a right to film police officers doing their jobs. I am not a criminal and I refuse to give my information to any officer if you have no justifiable reason for the pull over. I've stop talking to them.

They threatened to arrest me for refusing to give my information to them for a pullover that wasn't a traffic violation.

Of course, after ten minutes of me and the officers escalating words, I asked if I was free to go! They didn't want to let me go, so I asked that "am I being detained!"

After another round of verbal escalating, I decided to clam up and not say another word. About that time, one of the officers ran my plates and flashed his light on me. I asked the other officer once again, am I free to go, and he said yes, and I decide to move on.

All the while another person was filming the encounter. I said, thanks for filming. Post that on social media.

SO I WILL NO LONGER STAND THE NATIONAL ANTHEM, EITHER! UNTIL CONGRESS PASS POLICE REFORM AND HOLD OFFICERS ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS, I WILL NOT ENDORSE THE FLAG OF A COUNTRY THAT OPPRESS PEOPLE OF COLOR!

Ohio University Cures Its Ailes!

Ohio University ends its ties to Roger Ailes.

The folks of Athens, Ohio once thanked now disgraced Fox News CEO Roger Ailes for his huge contributions to Ohio University. It's revealed that Ailes was accused of sexually harassing female employees. Former anchors Gretchen Carlson and Andrea Tantaros filed a federal lawsuit against Ailes.

Ailes on his part denies any involvement in any wrongdoing. But the fallout is big especially at his alma mater. His old school decided to end its relationship with him.

Ohio University has now decided that Ailes isn't the perfect role model for its students. They have formally returned the $500,000 donation and removed his name from the newsroom he put millions of dollars in.

OU President Roderick McDavis announced the action Monday during a Faculty Senate meeting, the student newspaper The Post reported. The letters of Ailes' name were taken down before the meeting ended, and a wooden board was placed over the space soon after, the newspaper reported.

"The distraction from the teaching of the Scripps College of Communication has weighed heavily on my mind as I deliberated over the sustained effect on our university community should we continue to have our newsroom named for Mr. Ailes," McDavis said, according to the report. "Given the allegations against Mr. Ailes, the circumstances surrounding his departure from Fox News, I've decided to return his gift and remove his name."

"Ohio University ignited my interest in broadcasting, which became my lifetime career," Ailes said in 2007.

Tom Hodson, the director and general manager of WOUB, said in an email to The Post that WOUB is "pleased" with McDavis' decision.

Robert Stewart, director of E.W. Scripps School of Journalism, said in an email to The Post he was "glad (the journalism school) can finally move on."

"I applaud President McDavis' decision," Stewart said in an email. "The controversy has helped shine a spotlight on the ongoing problem of sexual harassment in the workplace, but it's a relief to have the name and plaque removed."

21st Century Fox and News Corp paid out Gretchen nearly $20 million in damages.

Greta Van Susteren abruptly was fired out the cannon after spending over 15 years with the network.

Ailes is now putting a bug in Donald Trump's ear.



Tupac Shakur: Picture Him Rollin!

Twenty years ago, Tupac Shakur was shot in Las Vegas. His death remains a mystery. The rapper left a legacy.

Today marks 20 years since the fatal shooting of rapper Tupac Shakur. On September 7, 1996, Shakur and Marion "Big Suge" Knight were ambushed by an unknown gunman after driving on the Las Vegas strip.

After leaving a Mike Tyson boxing match, 'Pac and Suge were on their way to an afterparty when this event happened. Suge was driving his black BMW when a pearly white Cadillac sedan pulled alongside and fired upon the car.

'Pac was rushed to the hospital and placed on life support. He would die of his injuries on September 13, 1996. The case remains open and to this day, no one has come forward with information.

Many in the junk food media accused Orlando Anderson as the gunman. He was known as "Baby Lane" in the South LA area. He was a Crip member who was brutally beaten at the MGM Grand Hotel by 'Pac and his bodyguards.

When the video of the attack on Anderson came to light, they saw that Big Suge was throwing them bows. So he violated his parole and sent back to the iron college for nearly 10 years.

Anderson was later gunned down in a Los Angeles car wash. He was primarily the focus of the Las Vegas Metro Police.

As of today, we mourn the loss of Tupac Shakur, a poetic, spiritual, troubled and controversial figure in hip-hop. Hailed as one of the greatest rappers known, Tupac Shakur was a product of his environment.

His father and mother were both active in the Black Panthers movement. Tupac learned the rules of the game at an early age. He was artistic, gifted, intelligent and savvy.

He wanted to strive for great things.

His life was cut short at age 25. He was engaged in a bitter feud with rival rappers from the east.

Notably the Notorious B.I.G. who 'Pac accused of setting him up at a recording studio in New York.

That led to the great war of the coasts.

To this day, 'Pac's life is fascinating.

Note: Afeni Shakur passed away this year after suffering from a heart attack. Big Suge is currently facing a murder charge after he ran over a man on the filming set of Straight Outta Compton.

Terrorist Set Fire To Florida Mosque!



A reminder to the folks who blame one group for the acts of one. Terrorism isn't exclusively Muslim. There are plenty of folks who willing to terrorize people and property for their twisted views. If we lump mass shootings, White extremism, gang violence, arson, illegal hacking and criminal hate crimes into terrorism, anyone who commits these acts of violence should be tried for the same criminal acts similar to international terrorism.

The destruction of religious institutions was always an act of terrorism. It went back to the years of the Klan burning down predominantly Black churches in the South.

Now the extremists are destroying mosques in the United States.

There have been numerous reports of extremists leaving burned q'urans, pig's blood, pig's heads and graffiti on the walls of mosques.

There was a fire at an Fort Pierce, Florida mosque overnight. This mosque was the place where the Pulse nightclub shooter once prayed.

The Islamic Center of Fort Pierce has images of the terrorist. The Florida state authorities and FBI are determined to capture this person.

In June, the Orlando community was hit by a terrorist who massacred 49 people inside a local gay nightclub. The terrorist was killed by the law after a gunfire exchange. To this day no laws were passed on handling mass shootings.

I will address the mass shooter in the usual blame game postings. After that, I will not mention the name of any mass shooter. I am done sending condolences to victims.

Ironic that on the 15th anniversary of the terrorist attack in 2001, we are no where close to being united. The cliches of "United We Stand" and "We Shall Overcome" are just words not speeches.

The hateful acts of this arsonist will not be tolerated. Hopefully justice will be served to this extremist.

There's No Such Thing As Unity!



I want to make this clear, there is no such thing as a united nation. The people here in the United States will forever be cynical of someone because of their differences.

It's unfortunate that 9/11, Martin Luther King Day and Christmas are supposed to be days of unity.

We put too much symbolism into these days. Cause once the names are read, the bells cling and the speakers say "there's hope for change", the next day, we head back to our corners waiting to destroy one another.

We are so freaking divided. It's divided among race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, education, economic and political standings.
President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are relentless attacked by Republicans for the 9/11 attack in Benghazi. The Republicans claim that they are more stronger on terrorism. They forgot a Republican president dealt with the country's worst act of terrorism on homeland soil.
It doesn't matter how many times our country comes together to mourn the 2846 victims of the September 2001 tragedy.

Our country changed 15 years ago. On September 11, 2001, we were attack by al Qaeda inspired hijackers. They managed to take four planes and use them as weapons on American targets.

The World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania are now sacred grounds for the numerous lives lost in this act of terror.

September 11, 2001 was the day that George W. Bush was thrust into a war against a foreign terrorist organization that many barely known. Bill Clinton had dealt with this organization during the first attack at the World Trade Center, the Kenya and Tanzania embassy bombing, USS Cole, the attacks on American citizens in Saudi Arabia.

The organization al-Qaeda claimed responsibility for this mission in which apparently over a dozen individuals left their families and decided to join a conservative Sunni fundamental Islamic extremist group for a suicide mission.
Since 9/11, Republicans boasted they're strongest on handling terrorism. Unfortunately, their obsession with cutting government and stifling human rights led to the worst disaster on American soil. George W. Bush exploited 9/11 to lead us to two wars.


Al-Qaeda was led by a Saudi Arabian man who was an heir to successful construction company. This gentleman, aided by an Egyptian doctor/activist, and a Kuwaiti engineer managed to plot a mass attack on the United States.

Osama bin Laden, Ayman al-Zawahiri and Khalid Sheikh Mohammed were the backers of terrorist attack.


They saw lapses at American airports. They found that an opportunity was born when the United States lets their guard down after an election.

This tragedy brought together America.

For nearly 10 years, Osama bin Laden lived in hiding. He was held up in a safe haven in Pakistan.

President Barack Obama kept his promise. He was relentless in his quest to capture bin Laden. He didn't mince words on May 2011. The president announced to the world that the leader of al-Qaeda was killed by the United States Military Special Operatives in Abbottabad, Pakistan.

President Barack Obama has been really aggressive on disrupting al-Qaeda and its affiliates.

Now that al-Qaeda broken up into the new scare de jour the Islamic State, Republicans once again are flexing their tongues instead of their brains. They often attack Obama for not realizing the threat of "radical Islam" and the Islamic State. 

The president ignores them and focuses on using his allies and the finest in intelligence and military to help him defeat an enemy that is more savvier online than on the battlefield.

Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are both flexing their tongues on how to take on terrorism.

Being partisan is a part of 9/11 as well. To this day, Republicans believe that their policies kept America safe.Republicans claim that if it wasn't for Bill Clinton, the 9/11 attacks would of never happened. They blame Clinton for allowing bin Laden escape to Afghanistan. They claim that if it wasn't for George W. Bush, Osama bin Laden would of never been taken out. They refuse to acknowledge that Barack Obama solely focused on the fight against terrorism. 

REPUBLICANS ONLY USE THEIR TONGUES IN THE FIGHT AGAINST TERRORISM.
