Jenelle Evans: Going HAM on Nathan Griffith for Child Support?!

Jenelle Evans doesn’t just want full custody of her son Kaiser, she wants baby daddy Nathan Griffith to pay up. The Teen Mom 2 star is reportedly under the impression that her ex is a thousandaire, rolling in fat checks he receives from the government for his past military service. And Jenelle, allegedly, thinks she deserves a piece . “Jenelle is putting the child support on Nathan,” a source told Radar Online. “She thinks he owes her something.” The site reports that Nathan had gotten monthly checks as payment for suffering post-traumatic stress disorder and a crippling injury to the brain as a result of his service. “He was getting over $3,000 a month in 2014,” claimed the source. “It’s called ‘compensation’ for being ‘disabled’ as a result of his deployment.”  We don’t know what Jenelle’s attorneys have planned, but we’re fairly certain Nathan isn’t going down without a fight. He’s already proven he’s willing to beg, borrow and steal (okay, just steal) for his kid when he made off with Jenelle’s car and $1,000 worth of belongings that were in it. He allegedly wanted to seize a car seat and a stroller that were in the vehicle in order to prove to the courts that he bought things for Kaiser. Sounds like a solid plan. “Jenelle doesn’t know how much she will get,” the source added. “It depends on how much they make him pay per month and then it will all be added up.” This isn’t the only custody battle Jenelle is facing. She is also going head to head with her mother Barbara , who currently has custody of Jenelle’s son Jace. Jenelle and Nathan are said to duke it out over child support in court next month. Godspeed.

Chris Crafton of the U.S. Air Force was supposed to be stationed in Cuba, not at his daughter Taylor’s high school graduation in Grand Forks, N.D. Oh, how he had his family fooled this week. Chris’ family was prepared for his absence from Taylor’s big day, to the point where they even made a cardboard cutout of him to sit in the crowd in spirit. Not only did Crafton manage to end his deployment in time for her graduation, though, he declined to tell anyone in his family, not even his wife. Which made this all the more amazing: Deployed Dad Surprises Daughter at Graduation An announcement from the ceremony’s MC was the only thing signaling Chris’ arrival, just before he jogged onstage and embraced Taylor, saying: “I told you, don’t give up on your dad .” She never did, despite the demands of his job. He’s spent 1,782 days deployed, by his count, saying “This is my last deployment so I had to make it happen.” “I’ve missed a lot … you know, birthdays, Christmas, that kind of thing,” Crafton said. “So I just tried my best to get here for when she graduated.” Says his wife and Taylor’s mom Paige: “These are just things that you see on YouTube or on TV, it’s nothing that really happens to people that you know, so it’s just the best feeling in the world.” 13 Epic Reactions to Surprises Caught on Camera 1.

Senate Passes $600 Million Border Bill!

In the briefest of sessions and without the slightest bit of the usual acromony in the Senate chamber these days, members unanimously approved a $600 million border enhancement bill Thursday (8/12/2010) that increases the boots on the ground at the US border with Mexico. 1000 more Border Patrol Agents and 250 Customs and Border Protection Officers, as well as the deployment of unmanned surveillance drones. Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) was the Bill's author, with help from Sen. Ben Cardin (D-MD). The Bill itself is not without some controversy, however, despite it's overwelming Congressional approval. The Bill now heads to the Presidents desk for his signature. added by: thetrimsmith

Reports Fuel Speculation Over Bin Laden’s Location

The mystery over Osama bin Laden's whereabouts has taken a new turn, with multiple reports claiming that the Al-Qaeda leader is not hiding in Pakistan, as widely believed, and could be in Afghanistan. Information about the location of the man the U.S. blames for orchestrating the 9/11 terrorist attacks has been scarce ever since international forces launched a manhunt for him in Afghanistan in 2001
