Eric Greitens Felt #MeToo!

Missouri governor resigns in disgrace.
Republican and family values Missouri governor Eric Greitens resigns after a series of scandals forced his own party to disown him.

Greitens became a focus right after his state of the union address in Jefferson City.

A former hairdresser accused the embattled lawmaker of having multiple affairs. He is a married man. His victim claimed she was tied up and threatened with exposure if she kept quiet.

He face a felony for unauthorized obscenity and harassment. He also faced campaign finance violations. He was using a fake charity donor list. In recent months, Greitens was indicted on felony invasion of privacy charges, computer tampering and misuse of funds. The invasion of privacy charge was dropped.

Greitens admits no wrongdoing but it was the party that told to him bounce.

"This ordeal has been designed to cause an incredible amount of strain on my family," Greitens said.

"Millions of dollars of mounting legal bills, endless personal attacks designed to cause maximum damage to family and friends. Legal harassment of colleagues, freinds and campaign workers and it's clear that the forces that oppose us, there is no end in sight. I cannot allow those forces to continue to cause pain and difficulty to the people that I love."

Mike Parson will become the governor in a few days. Greitens will leave Jefferson City on Friday.

Republicans are sighing relief. They now feel that Greitens will be in the back of the minds of voters.

Now Republicans will try to tie Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-MO) to Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) as their last ditch effort to winning an important swing seat.

Missouri Democrats are working hard to defeat the Republicans. They now can use Greitens and Donald J. Trump as their shield in the neverending fight for control.

Roseanne Cancelled!

Roseanne cancelled. Roseanne Barr destroyed her show by her racist remarks.

Breaking.

Roseanne was cancelled. The second season was scrapped immediately after Roseanne Barr made inappropriate comments (uh, racist) about Valerie Jarrett.

Barr compared Jarrett to an ape birthed from the Muslim Brotherhood.

ABC quickly responded to the controversy by sending a message.

Barr responded to social media with a tepid apology.





Co-star and executive producer Sara Gilbert was not happy about Roseanne making these remarks.

Gilbert, Laurie Metcalf, John Goodman and Wanda Sykes were featured on the show.

Gilbert is the co host and creator of CBS The Talk. She will discuss the controversy.

This is the biggest shock in the junk food media.

Roseanne Barr is now officially a washed up celebrity.

Tim Allen, beware. You go too far and Last Man Standing will return to the graveyard of cancelled sitcoms.


Roseanne Threw A Banana At Valerie Jarrett!

Washed up celebrity Roseanne Bar posted racist shit online about Valerie Jarrett, former Obama policy adviser.
Okay, we need to put a muzzle on this. It's time to demand ABC hold this piece of shit accountable for her actions online. Her show survived it's first season. It may not survive it's second season.

Whitney Cummings is exiting Roseanne. She and Sara Gilbert were the executive producers of this. ABC was pleased that Roseanne did well. They said that the show will go on. It warned the staff to tone down the politics in the next season.

Now in the age of Donald J. Trump, Hollywood is working on making shows that appeal to right wing extremists.

The return of Last Man Standing is also going to cause uproar. Tim Allen, another piece of shit, has posted or remarked inappropriately about people of color and Barack Obama.
Valerie Jarrett done more shit than some washed up bigot like Roseanne Barr.
Roseanne Barr left her nut farm to return back to television. Her desperate attempts at woeing support from white extremists is working. Her lame attempt at being funny gotten her in trouble again.

Here we go, Roseanne Barr goes on social media to post this bullshit about Valerie Jarrett, the former Obama senior advisor. Jarrett is a woman of color and this comedian said, "Muslim Brotherhood and Planet of the Apes had a baby =VJ [Valerie Jarrett]."




Hmmm...

Jarrett was born to African American parents in Iran. She is not a Muslim or a supporter of terrorism. She is a businesswoman, lawyer, and public speaker.

She ain't a washed up comedian who is trying to revive a career. Roseanne Barr is a washed up celebrity who got lucky.

Now will ABC hold this woman accountable?

Jada Pinkett Smith Ends Feud With Gabrielle Union!

The Red Table. Jada Pinkett Smith and Gabrielle Union put an end to the drama.
I didn't know that the two actresses were feuding.

Jada Pinkett Smith and Gabrielle Union are squashing their nearly 20 year old feud. The two have expressed interest in working on future projects.

On Jada's Red Table Talk podcast the two discuss the outcome of holding a long-standing grudge and how women of color could make an impact in polarizing times.

The women had not spoken to one another for 17 years.


Any thoughts to the interview?

Share your thoughts.

Closing Time!

A majority of Starbucks stores will close today for mandatory diversity training.
The viral video of two Black men being arrested by the Philadelphia Police after they entered Starbucks has forced the company to do some serious work.

Today, the company will close all company owned stores for diversity training.

About 8,000 stores will close today. This will cost the coffee giant $12 million.

The company will bring in Oscar award winning rapper Common and offer its employees an opportunity to address the controversy.

The company has now changed its rules on restroom and gatherings without purchase. It also will no longer allow its employees to call the law on loitering.
Common will be assisting Starbucks in their plan to make the coffee company more inclusive.
They want to make Starbucks more inclusive.

Rashon Nelson and Dante Robinson have both spoken out since the controversy. The president and the CEO of Starbucks both personally apologized to the pair.

The manager who called the police on the two is no longer working with Starbucks.

I happened to stroll the YouTube and saw white extremist Tucker Carlson complain about Starbucks. He brought on washed up reality star Mike Rowe to mansplain the "diversity" in Starbucks.

By the way, if you feel Starbucks isn't your thing, how about a local coffee shop or a minority owned restaurant. Put your money back into the community.

Ohio Might Pass A Stand Your Ground Law!


Great, another state planning on passing a vigilante law.

Ohio lawmakers are trying to pass a "stand your ground" law similar to Florida.

You may remember that Florida passed that law giving George Zimmerman the opportunity to kill Trayvon Martin, an unarmed teenager who was confronted by the armed neighborhood watch patroller.

This bill will strengthen more gun freedom.

Under current Ohio law, you may use a firearm in the defense of home, your personal car or a family member's car.

Ohio House Bill 228 would loosen rules.

  • shift the burden of proof in self-defense cases from the defendant to the prosecutor
  • scrap requirements that K-12 schools, police stations, courthouses, airports and other public sector locations post signs declaring themselves gun-free zones
  • reduce certain concealed handgun violations to minor misdemeanors
John Kasich said he will veto this law if Ohio Republicans manage to pass this through.

The law is being sponsored by two state lawmakers. Terry Johnson and Sarah LaTourette are fucking morons. End of discussion.

Ohio needs jobs and better roads. Not idiots running around thinking their judge, jury and executioner.

Punch Drunk!

Rep. Tom Garrett (R-VA) resigns amid a scandal.

On this memorial day, a lawmaker announces he will no longer seek reelection. Republican lawmaker Tom Garrett of Virginia will be the 44th member of the House of Representatives either resigning or retiring.

He represented the 5th Congressional district of Virginia.

The hopes of the Democrats retaking the House and Senate are still up in the air. But this announcement does give the party hope.

Garrett claims that his personal issues with the booze has burdened his family.

His staff claimed he treated them like shit. He would order them to pick up groceries, walk his dogs and even picking up the poop.

Garrett would punish his staff with threats.

Some believe he was having an affair on his wife.

Garrett is a member of the do nothing House Freedom Caucus. He represented the areas around Charlottesville. Last year the city made history. It became one of the largest rallies for a bunch of white extremists.

Donald J. Trump said they were "very fine people" and the violence was done by both sides. Heather Heyer was killed when a white extremist used his vehicle as a weapon to attack counter protesters.
