Fresh Off The Boat....

ABC will debut Fresh Off the Boat.
Looks like ABC is going to greenlight it's first Asian American sitcom since the cult classic All-American Girl featuring entertainer Margaret Cho.

The comedy series starring Randall Park, Constance Wu, Ian Chen, Forrest Wheeler and Hudson Yang that is loosely based on the life of chef and food personality Eddie Huang and his book Fresh Off the Boat: A Memoir. It's going to placed on the Death Slot.

It's going to be similar to UPN (later CW) series Everybody Hates Chris.

The controversial Fresh Off the Boat was once titled Far East Orlando and it pissed off many people especially show creator Eddie Huang. They felt that the series was degrading to Asian Americans.

Huang is a famed hip-hop celebrity chef and writer. He based his sitcom from his days of growing up in Orlando after leaving Washington, DC. He lived with his Taiwanese family during his upbringing and learned culinary during his rise to fame. The sitcom follows Eddie through his school and his family's steakhouse.

His show will likely replace freshman sitcom Cristela featuring comedienne Cristela Alonzo.

Cristela based her sitcom off her comedy routine. Her show takes place in Dallas where she is a law firm intern who got her family pulling her in all directions. It's a comedy to feature a Hispanic family.
Eddie Huang in Detroit.
ABC also has Anthony Anderson's Black-ish. It features him, Tracey Ellis Ross and Laurence Fishburne as an upscale Black family trying to teach their children to the Black experience.

The show already seems like it's on death watch. TVbythenumbers is the website that determines the fate of sitcoms, dramas and action series on the networks. The bear will eat and some of the sitcoms I've watched for years are gone and here comes another batch of disasters to replace them.

ABC canceled Selfie, and Manhattan Love Story. CBS canceled The Millers in the middle of its second season. NBC canceled Marry Me and A to Z. Fox canceled Mulaney.

Mary Landrieu Finally Got Fired Out The Cannon!

One of the last remaining Democratic senators from the Deep South goes down.

Florida doesn't count. That is the only state in the south where a Democrat still has a seat. Since Florida is a melting pot of culture, its still a heavily favored swing state.

The other states, West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, North Carolina, South Carolina and Texas are solid Republican.

Louisiana's long term Democratic senator Mary Landrieu goes down in the runoff. She along with other Democrats ran away from President Barack Obama. They paid the price. On top of that, the establishment's choice Congressman Bill Cassidy (R-LA) will be sworn in January.

Not even a high turnout of Black and Hispanic votes couldn't surmount to the White resentment.
Senate-elect. Republican Louisiana Representative Bill Cassidy won.
Even when she admitted the cold hard facts that the southern White folks will never support the president (because of his race).

Republicans pounced on that along with the "I didn't vote for Obama" comment.

Landrieu was the last remaining Democrat of the Deep South.

The Republican in the Senate will have 54 to 44 majority with two independents. The Republicans will have 248 members with 1 territory delegate to the 187 Democrats with 4 territory delegates with one independent territory delegate siding with the minority party.

Even in the U.S. Territory of American Samoa, there will be a Republican lawmaker.

The Darren Wilson Supporters Serving Chicken, Watermelon and Ol' English To The Protesters!


The protesters for better policing found that in rural Missouri, they're not interested in fellow citizens using their American right to protest. To them it's disturbing their peace. So they'll use their American right to counter-protest. Of course why not have a couple of insensitive themes such as fried chicken, watermelon and a 40 oz in the path of protesters.

The White conservative extremists flood the discussion boards, talk radio shows, and even the very street of Ferguson, Missouri to tell the Michael Brown supporters that they need to go to hell. These extremists believe that even in the wake of the Michael Brown shooting along with numerous events of officer involved killings on unarmed suspects, racism is over.

Yes, the media makes it a race issue. Obviously the agitators of the left and right have debated this.

I've been cautious about it. Yeah, I believe some of the issues driven this year involved race.

However, I will say that my fears are basically the matter of law enforcement shooting unarmed suspects. There's just too many individuals who paid the price for just being a perception. Americans are the most racist, vindictive and immature bunch of human beings to ever exist.

Wonder why the world has issues with us?

Across the world, many nations look at the United States as the last global superpower. They believe that Americans are often look upon as arrogant. They hate us for the very freedoms why take advantage of. Those freedoms allows us to be condescending bigots.

NOT ALL WHITE PEOPLE ARE RACIST. THERE ARE BLACKS, LATINOS, ASIANS AND NATIVE AMERICANS WHO HATE OTHER RACES AS WELL.



And of course, the protesters are calling for better policing for all citizens.

That annoying conservative agitator debated Washington, DC delegate Congresswoman Elanor Holmes-Norton on the events in New York and the St. Louis area. He was so fucking disrespectful to her and never let her get an opportunity to defend her own comments. He was so obsessed with Brown's stepfather and comments from the Congressional Black Caucus. The members of the Black Caucus were outraged over the Eric Garner decision. They call upon President Barack Obama, Attorney General Eric Holder and designate Loretta Lynch to do something about it.

That annoying conservative agitator and his minions of the racist right have worked up this notion that Black America isn't focused on crime in their own communities. Of course, being as condescending as most are, the racist right allows people like Rudy Giuliani (aka Mr. 9/11) to run his jaws on issue that have nothing to do with the issues these people are protesting about. He blames Bill de Blasio for the unrest in New York.

Bill de Blasio who is white is married to a Black woman. He had to give his own son Dante the talk about how others view him when he's dressed or driving on the public roads.

Under his term as mayor of New York City, Giuliani allowed unarmed Sean Bell, Amadou Diallo, and Timothy Stansbury to die.

de Blasio, the first Democratic mayor in 20 years is determined to clean up NYPD's act. The mayor now has at least three incidents under his term with the NYPD. The shooting of Akai Gurley isn't going to make things any better. Besides the Eric Garner controversy, there was the brutal attack on Alexian Lien beating on the Henry Hudson Parkway. There were NYPD officers who were part of a biker gang who beat Lien after he ran over another biker in a road rage incident.

Last month, while Akai Gurly was shot in Brooklyn after a rookie officer "accidentally" fired a round inside a empty stairwell. We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to Akai Gurly's family. More on this later. Peter Liang is on administrative leave for this.

This madness must stop. I mean the junk food media is agitating these issues and I am all for awareness but it's going to lead to more violence.

The protesters led by the NAACP got to Jefferson City, to vent anger at Missouri's embattled Democratic governor Jay Nixon for refusing to hire state issued special prosecutor to investigated the handling by former officer Darren Wilson and the Ferguson police force.

The junk food media had filmed protests happened in Atlanta, Los Angeles, Chicago, Cincinnati, New York, and even in Toronto.

The video here is quite disturbing but it shows the protesters marching through some of the towns in Missouri and you can hear some of those counter-protesting saying racial slurs.

Fifth Street in ruins, but private developers want a handout from the st...

Welcome to Trotwood, Ohio - The Epitome of Ecomonic Collapse in America





This is what use to be a thriving shopping area in the Dayton, Ohio region located in Trotwood, Ohio until the crime ruined the area and poachers from nearby cities stole all of their business and took advantage of the bad conditions in the city back then. Now many of these buildings face the wrecking ball and are unlikely to ever be redeveloped as commercial property

Holiday Tinsel!

Looks like things are working under a Democratic president. 

The unemployment rate idles at 5.8%. The month of November netted 321,000 jobs. That means seasonal hiring and healthy manufacturing jobs are on the rise. This comes after the Democrats losing control of Congress. After all, Republicans were screaming at the clouds claiming things are bad.

Despite the good news, there's is a bit of bad news. The payroll to job rate is not healthy at all.

The inept lawmakers in Congress will not support a legislative law that advocates for a higher minimum wage.

The Labor Department also said Friday that 44,000 more jobs were added in September and October combined than the government had previously estimated. Job gains have averaged 241,000 a month this year, putting 2014 on track to be the strongest year for hiring since 1999.

The unemployment rate remained at a six-year low of 5.8 percent last month.

The robust job gains come after the economy expanded from April through September at its fastest pace in 11 years. The additional jobs should support steady growth in coming months.

Average hourly wages rose 9 cents to $24.66 last month, the biggest gain in 17 months. Yet in the past 12 months, hourly pay is up just 2.1 percent, barely ahead of the 1.7 percent inflation rate.

The job gains were fueled in part by strong hiring in retail, temporary services and transportation and warehousing. Those increases likely reflect seasonal hiring for the winter holidays. Shipping companies have announced ambitious plans: UPS has said it expects to add up to 95,000 seasonal workers, up from 85,000 last year. FedEx plans to hire 50,000, up from 40,000.

But the hiring also extended across many other parts of the economy. Manufacturers added 28,000 jobs, the most in a year. Education and health services added 38,000. And professional and business services, a category that includes temps but also higher-paying jobs in fields such as accounting and engineering, gained the most in four years.

The data could raise pressure on the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates early next year. Many economists have forecast that they won't do so until around June of 2015. The Fed has kept rates near a record low of nearly zero for six years, in an effort to lift borrowing and spending.

"As Fed officials keep stressing, the decision is data dependent and these data are pretty conclusive: Labor market conditions are improving at breakneck speed," said Paul Ashworth, an economist at Capital Economics.

The improving U.S. job market contrasts with weakness elsewhere around the globe. Growth among the 18 European nations in the euro alliance is barely positive, and the eurozone's unemployment rate is 11.5 percent. Japan is in recession.

China's growth has slowed as it seeks to rein in excessive lending tied to real estate development. Other large developing countries, including Russia and Brazil, are also straining to grow.

Most economists say the United States will likely continue to strengthen despite the sluggishness overseas. The U.S. economy is much less dependent on exports than are Germany, China and Japan. U.S. growth is fueled more by its large domestic market and free-spending consumers, who account for about 70 percent of the economy.
Cry now, laugh later. The Republicans working double time on the obstruction.
That trend helps support the steady U.S. job growth. Most of the industries that have enjoyed the strongest job gains depend on the U.S. market rather than on overseas demand. Retailers, restaurants and hotels, and education and health care, for example, have been among the most consistent sources of healthy hiring since the recession officially ended in 2009.

Manufacturing, which is more exposed to overseas ups and downs, has added jobs for most of the recovery but in smaller numbers. That is a likely reason why pay growth has been tepid since the recession ended. Companies and industries that are more exposed to international competition typically pay higher salaries.

Most recent figures on the economy have been encouraging. Americans are buying more cars, which will likely keep factories busy in coming months. Auto sales last month rose to their second-fastest pace this year. Car sales are on track to rise 6 percent this year from 2013.

And a survey by the Institute for Supply Management, a trade group of purchasing managers, showed that services firms expanded at nearly the fastest pace in eight years last month. Retailers, hotels, construction firms and other service companies added jobs, the survey found, though more slowly than in October.

The ISM's separate survey of manufacturing firms showed that factories are expanding at a brisk pace. New orders and order backlogs rose, pointing to steady growth in coming months.

There have been some signs of moderating growth. Consumer spending rose only modestly in October. And businesses ordered fewer big-ticket manufactured goods that month, excluding the volatile aircraft category. That indicates that companies are holding back on investment.

As a result, most economists have forecast that the economy will slow in the final three months of the year to an annual pace of 2.5 percent. That would be down from a 4.3 percent pace from April to September, the fastest six-month pace since 2003.

Republicans would say: Thanks Obama. You're not responsible for giving the United States a better leg. After all the Republican governors who lead their states with federal aid money to help put people back to work.

Republicans would love to say that the economy is struggling. Yeah, it is. Because these lawmakers are not passing legislation to help move the economy.
