FraudYE: Trevor Noah Blasts Kanye West For His Hypocrisy Toward The Community That Made Him

Source: Kevin Winter/NBCUniversal Getty Images Entertainment / Getty Trevor Noah Blast Kanye West For His Hypocrisy No matter what you’ve read or watched these past few weeks, the constant has been Kanye West being loud and wrong about politics–even going as far as sporting the MAGA hat 2.0 he created to call Trump his “father figure” . Just when you thought he was seeing the light and was going to keep quiet while doing his weekly Sunday Service , he announced a new album. And of course, with that new album, comes more of Ye talking out of his azz. For example, his new interview with Beats 1 host Zane Lowe, in which Lowe had to demand he stop referring to his fans as “Liberals” at every turn. Then, Kanye spilled the details of not letting his staff have premarital sex while working on his album . Throughout this and other interviews, Kanye details his newfound relationship with God, which according to him, got him a $68 million dollar tax return , along with explaining how he looks at things differently now–Especially throughout Hip-Hop culture and social media. Basically, he’s going around trashing everything we loved about him before along with all of Hip-Hop culture and the people who created it. These facts rubbed damn near everyone the wrong way, but one person who has the platform for it decided to use it to air out Kanye and his hypocrisy throughout the MAGA inspired propaganda he’s been spewing. Trevor Noah decided to take some time on The Daily Show to air out his problems with the things Kanye West has had to say as of late. Of course after the Beats1 interview, Big Boy Interview, Car Pool Karaoke, and even past Sunday Service rants he had plenty to work with to make his point. “I was watching that, and I was like, are you sh–ting me? Like, of all people. I’m not saying everything he’s saying is wrong, but you are gonna say it? You, as Kanye West, are gonna talk s–t about other rappers talking about buying ‘foreign?’” “You’re saying that 70, 80, 90% of Black people who are voting Democrat, their brainwashed? So you’re saying you’re the only person who’s enlightened, and all these Black people are stupidly following this Democratic-victim?” “The fact that these people are brainwashed, or the fact that, in America, you have to vote for the system that gives you the best chance? You only have two choices, and that does make it weird, but you only have two choices, and if you are a Black person you go, well, I’m going to vote for the choice that gives me the best chance of success.” These quotes are just the tip of the iceberg, as Trevor had a full 5-minute rant for Mr. West. Check it out in its entirety down below.

Really Though? Foot-In-Mouth Joe Biden Says Poor Kids Are “Just As Talented As White Kids”

Source: Win McNamee / Getty Joe Biden Tells Iowa Crowd “Poor Kids Are Just As Bright And Just As Talented As White Kids” Former Vice President Joe Biden is effing up once again . According to NBC News , the Democratic presidential candidate visited a town hall on Thursday with the Asian and Latino Coalition in Des Moines, Iowa. When the conversation came to the discrimination faced by low-income students, Joe had this to say: “We have this notion that somehow if you’re poor, you cannot do it. Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as White kids.” Then he paused, and clarified with the quickness : “Wealthy kids, Black kids and Asian kids. No, I really mean it, but think how we think about it.” Mhm. *Taps mic for Joe in the back* Not all Black people or people of color are poor! There are a lot of white people who are poor despite White people still being generally more wealthy ! Peep Joe’s clip and some of the backlash below. Understand the inference in what @JoeBiden is saying when comparing “poor kids” (i.e. Black and brown children) to “white kids.” He sets white children as the standard of brilliance and talent. Thus, the benchmark of greatness that nonwhite people need to reach for is whiteness. https://t.co/CLEC4xk5fi — Bishop Talbert Swan (@TalbertSwan) August 9, 2019   Eventually, Kate Bedingfield, Biden’s deputy campaign manager, said that Biden “misspoke and immediately corrected himself during a refrain he often uses to make the point that all children deserve a fair shot, and children born into lower-income circumstances are just as smart as those born to wealthy parents.” Of course Trump hopped on any chance to drag a Democrat, pretending that he cares about poor people or people of color. When asked about Biden’s comments, Trump told a reporter that Biden is “not playing with a full deck.” “He made the comment, I said, ‘Whoa,’” Trump said. Trump on Biden's “poor kids” comment: “Joe Biden is not playing with a full deck. This is not somebody you can have as your president.” https://t.co/idScOroOzN pic.twitter.com/0n8TbU2wSi — CBS News (@CBSNews) August 9, 2019   Yea whatever. Get it together Biden.

Pro-Hitler Candace Owens’ Hateful Attack On The Central Park 5 Is Sunken Demon’s Latest Cry For Help

Read the original here:

I f defending white supremacy was a club, Candace Owens would not only be a member, she’d also be the president. What others rightfully recognize as racism, Owens sees as an opportunity to pander to conservatives who are writing her bigger checks than she got running an anti-Trump website only a few years ago. Now, the same person who not so long ago defended Adolf Hitler has offered up some more unsolicited and bizarre comments. This time they were about “blacks” in reference to “When They See Us,” Ava DuVernay ‘s brilliant new miniseries about the Central Park 5 that premiered on Netflix over the weekend. MORE: New Zealand Mosque Terrorist Reportedly Was Listening to Civil War Music “How foolish do you have to be to believe that the Central Park 5 case is suddenly being unearthed and glamorized because people care about justice?” the 30-year-old Connecticut native tweeted Tuesday afternoon. “WAKE UP, BLACK AMERICA! Millions of dollars are being spent to emotionally manipulate us ahead of an election cycle— AGAIN.” How foolish do you have to be to believe that the Central Park 5 case is suddenly being unearthed and glamorized because people care about justice? WAKE UP, BLACK AMERICA! Millions of dollars are being spent to emotionally manipulate us ahead of an election cycle— AGAIN. — Candace Owens (@RealCandaceO) June 4, 2019 She also added, “This is exactly the problem. The media relies on black emotion. Few people read the details of the case. Now, blacks are once again being emotionally manipulated by Leftists… The Central Park 5 were NOT innocent.” This is exactly the problem. The media relies on black emotion. Few people read the details of the case. Now, blacks are once again being emotionally manipulated by Leftists. I agree with you wholeheartedly, Brandon. The Central Park 5 were NOT innocent. Periscope coming soon. https://t.co/sISbgb3K7e — Candace Owens (@RealCandaceO) June 4, 2019 Owens is clearly crying for help. How else can you explain making a sweeping opinion on five men who were exonerated by the New York Supreme Court? The pro-Hitler commentator who inspired the New Zealand terrorist could be suffering from some deep psychological issues. Her craving for fame has exposed her fraudulence. Remember when she tried to own the term Blexit , her word for encouraging Black folks to leave the Democratic party? It turned out that was actually a slogan stolen from the Bank Black movement . Owens also once said  the NRA is “the nation’s oldest civil rights organization” and was founded “to train Black Americans to use guns to defend themselves against the Ku Klux Klan, a Democrat terrorist group.” She is the same person who said Hitler just wanted to “make Germany great.” She also blamed the horrifying mail bombs back in October on Democrats, by tweeting then deleting , “I’m going to go ahead and state that there is a 0% chance that these ‘suspicious packages’ were sent out by conservatives. The only thing ‘suspicious’ about these packages is their timing. Caravans, fake bomb threats—these leftists are going ALL OUT for midterms.” Owens truly hates herself. If you have prayers to spare, pray for this sunken place demon. Ava DuVernay’s “When They See Us” is a critically acclaimed and cultural hit with or without Owens’ input.

Isaiah Washington Is The Latest Black Celebrity Attacking Obama But Praising Trump

Read the original here:

E ver since Isaiah Washington was fired from “Grey’s Anatomy,” his career has been struggling. Similar to Stacey Dash , when the checks stop coming there is only one thing to do — become a Republican. Well, Washington is now a Trump Republican and is excited about his increase in social media followers. SEE ALSO:  Some No Name, Pitchy R&B Singer Disrespected Keith Sweat And Gets Demolished On Twitter Washington went out of his way to praise the First Step Act and decided to take a dig at President Barack Obama , who made more criminal justice reforms than any president in U.S., which is why Trump has rolled back all of his progress. “I voted for 44 twice,” Washington tweeted Monday. “I even checked my emails in his Senate Office while lobbying for Salone to be given another chance to rebrand. Not once in 8 years was I given any support regarding Africa or the Black Agenda, but 45 invites me to the WH to celebrate the #FirstStepAct.” I voted for 44 twice.

Not once in 8 years was I given any support regarding Africa or the Black Agenda, but 45 invites me to the WH to celebrate the #FirstStepAct — Isaiah Washington (@IWashington) April 1, 2019 Who knows why Washington thinks he is the one who should get support from Obama ( Kanye was also upset that Obama didn’t call him) when there were plenty of people doing work with Sierra Leone and his work with African nations is well-documented . Washington also wrote, “Those who know, know that I’m not a Democrat or a Republican. I will work w/h anyone as long as things get done. The #FirstStepAct was passed on December 21, 2018 w/h the hard work of @JessyMichele  @LouislReed @VanJones68 and @cut_50 I’m proud to stand with them all today.” Those who know, know that I’m not a Democrat or a Republican.

I see you! Thank You and Welcome to my # Truthdom.” S/O to my 3,122 new Followers. I see you! Thank You and Welcome to my #Truthdom — Isaiah Washington (@IWashington) April 2, 2019 Washington doesn’t seem to know or care that Trump has actively rolled back Obama-era prison reform policies. For example, the Justice Department will use private prisons to house federal inmates, which reverses an Obama-era policy. As The Washington Post reported, the Trump administration has “Overturned the sweeping criminal charging policy of former attorney general Eric H. Holder Jr. and directed his federal prosecutors to charge defendants with the most serious, provable crimes carrying the most severe penalties reports.” Trump also ended the  21st Century Task Force on Policing , commissioned by the Obama administration to address tensions between police and the communities they serve. Sessions and Trump rolled this back under their “law and order” mandate. This is clearly what happens when the checks stop coming in. Maybe he and Stacey Dash can do a D-list movie together.

However, she did reveal that she’s open to other options, which may include running for President of the United States, re-running for the governor’s seat in Georgia or even running for Senate. When pressed if she was indeed planning on throwing her own hat into the presidential ring, the 45 -year-old replied, “I do not know if I’m running. I’m thinking about everything. Part of my opportunity right now is that I have a number of options I didn’t know about before.” Adding, “If I’m going to enter a primary then I’m going to enter a primary.

Instead, what has been seen is the summary written by Attorney General Barr, a man President Trump appointed. “It’s like your brother summarizing your report card to your parents,” Abrams joked. She later said,” We don’t know the results of the Mueller report. We know the results of the summary of a reading of the report by a partisan who was just appointed by the person who is the subject of the report. The Democratic Party rising star also reminding McCain that collusion was just one of many issues the president was being investigated for. “But the Mueller report was not simply about collusion,” Abrams replied. “That was a pundit summary of a complicated question, which was happened preceding the 2016 election. I don’t know the answer because I haven’t seen the report.” Watch, Abrams snatch McCain’s wig off here: Its clear that Ms. Abrams is not the one.

North Carolina Republicans Admit To Suppressing The Black Vote

A hearing was held Tuesday about Republican voter fraud scheme in North Carolina that civil rights advocates said suppressed the Black vote. See Also: Election Day Reports Of Voter Suppression And Faulty Voting Machines Have Already Begun On Monday, a political operative working for Republican congressional candidate Mark Harris admitted to election officials that she illegally picked up and falsified absentee ballots as part of a scheme to help Harris steal the 2018 midterm election, CNN reported. Indeed, Republicans were accused of  using a variety of voter suppression tactics as  early voting got underway  in several states for the 2018 midterms. In the North Carolina contest, Harris was fighting off the Democratic wave in his district to keep a congressional seat that Republicans held for more than half a century. He had 905-vote lead over Democrat Dan McCready after the ballots were counted in the ninth district race, but the state board of elections declined to certify Harris as the winner because of absentee balloting irregularities. Election officials and witnesses said that the scheme may have involved more than 1,000 absentee ballots or request forms. Republican operatives were accused of forging signatures, completing ballots and mailing them from post offices near the voter’s home. Lisa Britt, a felon who had illegally cast her own ballot, admitted on the witness stand on Monday that she illegally collected between 35 and 40 absentee ballots in violation of state law. A consulting firm working for Harris paid her at least $150 per 50 absentee ballots she collected. Britt denied changing any votes, and the attorney representing Harris downplayed what effect the scheme had on the election results. However, civil rights advocates rejected that claim. “Attorney for Mark Harris, the candidate who benefited from this scheme, is now cross examining Lisa Britt. The attorney trying to suggest this is no big deal b/c the ballots that Britt took belonged to Republicans. This is FALSE. Black & Native American voters were most impacted,” tweeted Kristen Clarke , president and executive director of the National Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law. Precious Hall testified that she was a victim of the scheme. Precious Hall is a registered voter and a victim of the #NC09 scheme. Hall received an absentee ballot but did not remember requesting one. She normally votes in person. People showed up at her home, she completed ballot, people witnessed it, and they took the ballot with them. pic.twitter.com/ONBnm07jxe — Kristen Clarke (@KristenClarkeJD) February 18, 2019 Republicans—fearful of the impending Democratic blue wave—were  desperately using every trick in the book  to retain control of Congress and state governments. Suppression efforts targeting Black voters  were seen most notably in Georgia , where  Stacey Abrams  was trying to make history as the first African-American woman governor. The North Carolina hearing was expected to end on Wednesday. The outcome could lead to another election being held for the state’s 9th District House seat.

Everything We Know About Jussie Smollett’s Allegedly ‘Orchestrated’ Attack

Here is the original post:

Source: VALERIE MACON / Getty It’s nearly impossible to scroll social media without coming across a headline about Jussie Smollett . The Empire actor is engulfed in controversy after accusing two men of attacking him during a late night in Chicago. Smollett said he was punched in the face, had bleach poured on him and he suffered a bruise on his face. He also accused the attackers of yelling, “this MAGA country n*gger” and putting a noose around his neck. Since then an array of reports have come out that portray Smollett as a “liar.” Smollett has been accused of “orchestrating” the attack with two Nigerian brothers who also appeared on Empire. Here’s everything we know about the incident so far: Days before the attack, a threatening and racist letter addressed to Smollett was sent to CBS Chicago with a powdery substance inside that appeared to be Tylenol. Smollett was allegedly attacked by two men in Streeterville, Chicago early Jan. 29 morning after going to Subway He hesitated to call the police because of his pride but fully cooperated when he finally did contact them. Smollett revealed police didn’t initially ask him for his phone records, but wanted his phone. He didn’t hand it over because he had valuable and personal information in his phone. He did submit his phone records within an hour of the attack but they were redacted versions and the police needed more information. Jussie’s celebrity friends and fans of the actor came to his defense, calling out the forces who give energy to the MAGA movement and condemning racism. President Trump called the incident, “horrible.” “Doesn’t get worse,” he added. A police investigation turns up no surveillance footage of the attack, but shows two “persons of interest.” In his first performance after the attack, Jussie called himself the “gay tupac.” Jussie Smollett does Good Morning America interview, giving details about the alleged attack. According to his testimony, the attacker punched him and he struck him back. “We started tussling, it was very icy.” He added, “There was a second person involved who was kicking me in my back.” Apparently, his manager was on the phone during the attack. “Then I looked down and noticed there was a rope around my neck.” The homes of Olabinjo and Abimbola Osundairo, who were seen on the surveillance video, were raided. They were arrested but quickly released. “Due to new evidence as a result of today’s interrogations, the individuals questioned by police in the Empire case have now been released without charging.” BREAKING:Police raided the home of two persons of interest in Jussie Smollett case last night. Both men are of Nigerian decent and have appeared as extras on the show. Police took bleach, shoes electronics and more.Officers asked family if they knew #Jussiesmollett . @cbschicago pic.twitter.com/PDSFtf5jwb — Charlie De Mar (@CharlieDeMar) February 14, 2019 According to the brothers, they rehearsed the attack with Smollett days before the incident. They reportedly scouted a spot to orchestrate the attack where cameras would catch it. Apparently Jussie wanted the incident to be “physical” but not too harmful. They “made contact with Jussie’s face” but it was “weak.” The “attack” wasn’t caught on camera like Jussie had originally thought because cameras were facing north// away from where the incident occurred. Countless celebs have come out against Jussie after reports surfaced claiming the “attack” was orchestrated. “As a victim of a hate crime who has cooperated with the police investigation, Jussie Smollett is angered and devastated by recent reports that the perpetrators are individuals he is familiar with,” said defense lawyers Todd S. Pugh and Victor P. Henderson in a statement obtained by Deadline. “Nothing is further from the truth and anyone claiming otherwise is lying.” Jussie’s role on Empire has reportedly been “slashed” in the wake of the allegedly staged attack. He was originally supposed to be in nine episodes, featuring one big musical scene. His sister Jurnee posted this message on social media. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Jurnee Smollett Bell (@jurneebell) on Feb 18, 2019 at 11:17pm PST Jussie will plead his case in front of a grand jury who will decide if he should be indicted on charges for filing a false police report. The Osundairo brothers volunteered to testify.

Kamala Harris Rises In Polls As New Surveys Show Biden Less Dominant

See the rest here:

C alifornia’s Democratic Sen. Kamala Harris has seen a bump in the polls, as the accuracy of early surveys come under question that pegged former Vice President Joe Biden as the clear frontrunner for the 2020 Democratic nomination. See Also: Poll Shows What Crucial Iowa Voters Think About Likely Black Candidates For President Politico pointed out on Monday that at least two recent polls suggested that Biden does not have the 30-point lead that earlier polls found. The methodology of those early surveys apparently skewed the results and painted Biden as a formidable candidate if he decides to run. New surveys indicated that many Democrats are undecided and Biden—unlike Harris—may have benefited from name recognition in those earlier polls. One notable poll in December—before any Democrats announce their presidential bid—found that 32 percent of Iowa Democrats favored Biden in a field of about 20 possible opponents. Harris and New Jersey’s Democratic Sen. Cory Booker found themselves in the middle of the pack in the single digits. “People are weighing their options. I think the reason that so many people are getting in is because this is a 1-to-15 percent spread, not a 1-to-30 percent spread. It’s very different from 2016, when Hillary Clinton was at 40 or 50 percent,” said Steen Kirby, a campaigns and data specialist with Bold Blue Campaigns, adding that new polling shows that “it’s a very open field.” A new poll shows what Iowa Democrats think about nominating a Black candidate for president in 2020, including Sens. Kamala Harris and Cory Booker… https://t.co/sgBsxwT1l0 pic.twitter.com/TBc9NUPnEy — NewsOne (@newsone) December 16, 2018 Bold Blue Campaigns’ survey , published Feb. 12, found that Biden led Harris by just 1 point—12 percent to 11 percent among likely Democratic primary voters. That result was similar to an  ABC News/Washington Post poll  published during the last week of January, which also gave Biden a 1-point lead over Harris—9 percent to 8 percent. Kirby pointed to the methodology of early pollsters as part of the reason that Biden was shown to have a huge lead over his potential rivals. Those surveys offered a menu of potential candidates but neglected to ask the voters if they were undecided. When Bold Blue Campaigns gave respondents that option, nearly half of them—48 percent—said they had not firmly decided on which Democrat to support. The December poll of Iowa Democrats was viewed as an early indication of which Candidate was most likely to win the party’s Iowa Caucus, which is scheduled for  Feb. 3, 2020. As the first primary contest in the nation, a win in Iowa could cement a primary victory. The winner has won the Democratic presidential nomination in six consecutive election cycles .
