President O?

A powerful Black woman could run for president.
Media mogul Oprah Winfrey delivered a powerful speech at the Golden Globes last night. The speech has gotten the political agitators talking.

The media mogul could run as a Democrat and take on Donald J. Trump.

Another reality television star and media mogul with no experience running our government.

Could she make a play for 2020?

Here's her powerful speech at the Golden Globes.


Gayle King was shooting down rumors on CBS This Morning.

Could this be a game changer?

Who knows?

Democrats have no real strong competitors right now. They want to rehashed failed candidates like Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton. They can't beat a bombastic leader like Trump.

They want to have fairly seasoned candidates like Kamala Harris, Cory Booker and Kirsten Gillibrand to make a play.

If you ask me, no strong candidates means a second term for Donald J. Trump.

Monkeying Around!

H&M had a fashion emergency with an offensive display of a Black boy wearing a hoodie.

Oh, no!

H&M faces a backlash for letting this one slip past their board of directors.

Now this image will be splattered on white extremists websites. It will driven up on social media. The young model will likely be harassed and picked on by others.

The whole ordeal could hurt their sales.

The image of a Black boy with the hoodie saying "The coolest monkey in the jungle."

Yeah, we didn't think this one over.

H&M caused such an uproar, R&B singer The Weeknd said he's no longer endorsing the company.




Backlash and hashtag activism cuts both ways. Now that we got your attention, we want you to see how Americans view children of color.

Intentional or not, this was a clear cut dog whistle to white extremists.

Houston Police Search For Missing Sports Reporter Courtney Roland!

Courtney Roland is missing. The junk food media will amp up her disappearance.
A young woman who reported for Sports Illustrated went missing in Houston.

Courtney Roland is a reporter for Texas A&M. She was last seen leaving a football camp in an Uber on Saturday.

The family has filed a missing persons report with the Houston Metro Police.

According to a Facebook post, Roland was in communication with a friend around 12:30am on Sunday worried she was being followed by a blue truck leaving Walgreens.

Roland was concerned.

"The roommate said he [the suspicious man] followed Roland to her home in a blue truck as she was parked in the driveway. The roommate said the blue truck looped back around and parked behind her and Roland got out of her car and the truck sped off.

On Sunday, Roland's mother received a text from her phone saying, "hello the owner of this phone Courtney. I am buying an iPad."

The roommate also said Roland's vehicle was broken into six weeks ago and she's been on high-alert since."

Now you see its reached the govenor's mansion in Austin. Wondering when he start hashtag activism for all missing Americans.



Give it a few days, her name will be heard from coast to coast.

While I hope they find her safe and sound, an old reminder to why me and S.B have longed complained about the junk food media's coverage of missing women.



Usually, the women who go missing are White, blonde, well off and extremely attractive. The junk food media will give this national exposure and people begin hashtags, tabloid speculation and the usual blame game.

Hence the term: Missing White Woman Syndrome.

It is a term that reflects on how the junk food media is deliberately choosing which missing person gets the most attention. The stories about missing women of color, poor children, men and LGBTQ individuals are barely covered.

Let's rap.

Okay back in 2004, the late PBS host Gwen Ifill coined the term and 14 years later, it still matters.

Jake Tapper Shuts Down Trump's Lackey Stephen Miller!

It got heated between Trump lackey Stephen Miller and CNN's Jake Tapper.
White House adviser Stephen Miller is an alleged white extremist. He was a former contributor to Breitbart and is one of the folks instrumental in this xenophobic agenda Donald J. Trump plotting.

Miller has been a key figure in pushing Trump to issue executive orders to ban Muslims and immigrants from coming into the United States.

He appeared on CNN's State of the Union to discuss the Michael Wolff book, his strain relationship with Breitbart CEO Steve Bannon, the 2018 agenda and Trump's outlook for the future.

It was Must See TV.

On GOP Sundays, the political agitators tuned in to a testy interview.

Tapper was getting tired of the bullshit.

“I get it. There’s one viewer that you care about right now and you're being obsequious and you’re being a factotum in order to please him, OK,” Tapper said on "State of the Union," appearing to reference the president.
“And I think I’ve wasted enough of my viewers’ time. Thank you, Stephen,” Tapper added as he ended the interview.
Trump hopped on social media to congratulate Miller.




Any thoughts to this debate?

Uncle Murda Torpedoes 2017!

Uncle Murda murdered 2017.  
Controversial rapper Uncle Murda jacked Mad Skillz of his Yearly Wrap Up freestyle.

Uncle Murda is massacring 2017. The newly crowned member of G-Unit taking shots at rappers, R&B singers, NFL, Donald J. Trump, celebrity agitators, politics and everything.

I heard that Mad Skillz was not happy about this wrap-up freestyle.

The label founded by 50 Cent was given a shout out by Murda.

Peep this.



So our late thread will be Uncle Murda's 2017 Wrap Up freestyle.

Breitbart Might Fire Bannon Out The Cannon!

Trump had told Bannon to take a bath.
Bad words.

It seems like Steve Bannon is going to be erased from memory. The folks over at white extremist website Breitbart are considering firing him out the cannon.

The blockbuster book by Michael Wolff reveals some damaging information about the legacy of Donald J. Trump. Wolff said that Bannon was the communications line and the guy who spilled tea.

Bannon who was then-White House chief political strategist was fired out the cannon last year after rumors were going around that he was getting fed up with Jared Kushner, H.R. McMaster, Reince Priebus and Ivanka Trump.

Bannon who wanted Trump to take a nationalist platform was sidelined after John Kelly got into the postition of Chief of Staff.

Bannon was then CEO of Breitbart and appeared on the SiriusXM morning show from 2014 to 2016. He would leave the position to join the Trump campaign.

He would bring pollster Kellyanne Conway and they helped turn Trump's struggling campaign around. He was rewarded by Trump and given a place.

For eight months, many were grumbling about how Trump wasn't living up to the expectations and in Wolff's book, it details how irrational he is when he's upsetted by bad news.

Trump on his part said that his base is with him.

He dubbed his former ally as "Sloppy Steve."









Yeah, Bannon is in some deep shit. Robert and Rebekah Mercer have both pulled out of Breitbart. The controversial billionaires have financially cut the support of Bannon and his website.

Bannon has pissed off so many at Breitbart, they have considered a formal ouster of the former Hollywood screenwriter turned white extremist.

Fire And Fury: Inside the Trump White House is a bestseller. The White House was going to formally block the release of the book and silence Bannon's tongue.
Tech guru Robert Mercer with his wife Diana and daughter Rebekah. The billionaire family has decided to cut ties with Breitbart and its CEO Steve Bannon.
Wolff decided to push the release to Friday and it was sold at 12:01 am.

Wolff said that the White House and the Republican Party helped further it's interest by picking a fight with him.

Trump was none too happy about this.

Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders and White House communications director Hope Hicks ordered all personal devices removed from the White House. All workers are to use government devices.

Bannon on his part has downplayed the outcry.
Bannon may have lost his ally Kellyanne Conway.
Bannon became infamous when he turned Andrew Breitbart's media empire into a breeding ground for white extremists. He was also notable for the disastrous endorsement of Roy Moore. The former Alabama chief justice lost to Doug Jones in a highly watched special election. The Republican had nine women come forth accusing him of sexual abuse.

Moore was one of the many Bannon acolytes who wanted to shake things up in Washington. Moore's loss put a dent in Bannon and Trump.

Trump wasted political capital and it now puts Republicans at risk of losing Congress and state governorship.

Bannon continues his strict opposition to the establishment. He may start plotting his own ambitions in 2020.
