According to court documents , Pauline Randol was fatally shot by her son at their Fawn River Township home on Monday morning and family found her dead in the living room hours later. The Randol family says Pauline adopted the boy two years before and had expressed concern for his mental health and the safety of others. Fawn River residents told reporters that they heard screaming coming from the home minutes before deputies arrived at the scene. The boy’s sister, Harley Martin, told WOOD-TV: “[Pauline] had told her doctor one time she was so scared she was raising the next serial killer. [But] I want people to know that he’s not a bad kid. He loved his mom. I don’t want people to think he did not love his mom. He doesn’t know what he did. He doesn’t understand what’s going on right now at all. He doesn’t understand why he can’t come home or anything.” The boy has also been charged with using a firearm during the commission of a felony. He is now undergoing psychiatric treatment, but no word on whether or not he’ll be charged as an adult or juvenile.
Source: Mint Images / Getty Ain’t God good? Larry Mitchell Hopkins, Leader Of United Constitutional Patriots, Beaten In Jail The leader of a rancidly racist right-wing militia group recently got his a** beat, and it’s very much so the highlight of our day. Larry Mitchell Hopkins, the 69-year-old leader of the United Constitutional Patriots, apparently got hands and feet put on him in a New Mexico prison. Doña Ana County officials told NBC News that they’re investigating a battery against Hopkins that happened after 9 p.m. Monday, April 22. But they provided few details. “Hopkins was given medical attention for non-life-threatening injuries,” a Doña Ana County news release states. “He was transferred out of the Doña Ana County Detention Center under the direction of the U.S. Marshals Service on Tuesday.” His attack comes after he appeared in federal court in connection with a charge of him being a felon in possession of a firearm. Hopkins group reportedly prided themselves on being the “eyes and ears” of border patrol agents and targeted migrants, sometimes holding them at gunpoint until agents arrived. His band of merry men reportedly was 20 deep and they were “armed with AK-47 rifles and other firearms.” An FBI tip line blew the whistle on the United Constitutional Patriots actions and the FBI agent who wrote the complaint against them said Hopkins allegedly said the group was “training to assassinate George Soros, Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama.” Hopkins’ lawyer has since called the accusation “categorically false.” NBC also ran down the laundry list of Hopkins’ criminal history. It reads as follows; “In 1996, Hopkins was convicted of possession of a loaded firearm and was sentenced to state prison in Michigan for 16 months minimum to two years maximum, according to the complaint.” “In 2006, he was convicted of felony possession of a weapon in Oregon and sentenced to 40 days in jail and 36 months of probation, the complaint said.” “At the same time, Hopkins was also convicted of criminal impersonation of a peace officer and sentenced to 20 days in jail and 24 months of probation, the complaint said.” Wow, what a patriot (sarcasm). It sounds a lot like Hopkins and his militia group were just racist azzholes targeting families and covering it up by calling themselves patriots. Do YOU agree?
Source: Detroit Free Press / Getty As news spread that the White House offered to help France rebuild after the Notre Dame Cathedral fire in Paris, Americans were outraged since adequate help had not yet been provided to the community of Flint, Michigan right here at home. Fortunately, on Monday, it was announced Flint is finally set to receive the remaining $77.7 million it was promised, as part of the $120 million loan allocated to the city back in 2017 following their water crisis . “$77.7 million in loan assistance at a zero percent interest rate with 100-percent principal loan forgiveness,” Michigan Department of Environmental Quality announced . “The loan will fund the completion of a secondary water source pipeline, Dort Street and Cedar Street Reservoir and Pump Station improvements, construction of a chemical feed building, replacement of the Northwest transmission main, water main and water meter replacement, water quality monitoring panels, and contingency service line replacement funding. These projects will enhance the water distribution system by ensuring long-term compliance and protection of public health.” Monroe County and the City of East Lansing will also receive funding to improve their respective water distribution systems . “While we are grateful for this funding it’s important to understand it’s not new funding,” Flint’s Director of Public Works Rob Bincsik said, according to MLive . “The federal government awarded this funding and is utilizing the MDEQ’s Drinking Water Revolving Fund as the mechanism to disperse it to the City of Flint.” This is great news and we’ll continue to keep you informed as updates are provided.

It seems Kristin Cavallari has one important thing in common with millions of Chicago Bears and Miami Dolphins fans: She shares their opinion that Jay Cutler sucks! Of course, Cavallari’s view has nothing to do with Cutler’s performance on the field, or his behavior in post-game press conferences. Allow us to explain: The second season of Kristen’s reality show, Very Cavallari , is soon to come to an end, and while that might not generate as much excitement as, say, the final episodes of Game of Thrones the series apparently contains plot twists every bit as shocking as the Red Wedding. Very Cavallari Preview For example, we learn that Jay’s sucking skills are so sophisticated he can use them to save a life! It seems that while she was breastfeeding, Kristin suffered from a severely clogged milk duct. “Major clogged ducts,” she tells her friends in the clip above. “Jay had to get them out for me, sucking harder than he’s ever sucked … and you know what? Saved my life.” Yes, Jay Cutler saved a freaking life with his oral nipple-manipulating abilities. Sure, during his NFL career, Cutler was a bit of a choke artist, and a hangnail was enough to sideline the guy for a playoff game, but have any of your elite QBs ever performed life-saving mouth-to-boob resuscitation? Would Tom Brady be ready hoover a Gisele nip in the event of a lactic malfunction? We think not! Can you expect Aaron Rodgers to apply tongue and teeth as needed to rescue Danica Patrick’s jugs from a career-ending wreck? Ha! The only dairy product that diva’s interested in is the cheese atop the heads of the Lambeau faithful. No, when it comes to restoring the healthy flow of life-giving mammary juice, you need a workhorse like Mr. Fourth Quarter himself. Of course, it’s not all sucked ducts and rainbows in the Cutler-Cavallari household. The trailer also features some darker moments, like when Kristin accused Jay of failing to encourage her in following her dreams. “When you were playing football, I had to give up my whole life,” she says to him at one point. “I don’t feel that same support from you.” Far be it for us to stand up for Jay freakin’ Cutler — a man who spent his entire career wishing he could somehow make millions playing for a league with zero fans — but we feel the need to point out that the duct incident should buy him at least a few weeks of consequence-free douchiness. It’s really all he’s ever wanted.
P residential candidate Beto O’Rourke appears to have gotten a free pass from Washington after unequivocally calling Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a “racist.” The reaction to O’Rourke’s words — there wasn’t one — stood in stark contrast to the bipartisan response to Minnesota’s freshman Rep. Ilhan Omar for her remarks about an influential pro-Israel lobby group in Washington. The silence from “ many sides ” highlighted the clear double standard and hypocrisy when it comes to who utters criticism of Israel. See Also: Meghan McCain Sheds White Tears Over Ilhan Omar And The Jewish Community, And No One Is Here For It While on the campaign trail in Iowa on Sunday, the Texas Democrat said the U.S.-Israeli relationship was important but threatened by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu . “That relationship, if it is to be successful, must transcend partisanship in the United States, and it must be able to transcend a prime minister who is racist, as he warns about Arabs coming to the polls, who wants to defy any prospect for peace as he threatens to annex the West Bank, and who has sided with a far-right, racist party in order to maintain his hold on power,” O’Rourke said just days ahead of Israel’s election on Tuesday for its next prime minister. The silence out of Washington—from Democrats and Republicans—was deafening compared to the sparks that flew against Omar, one of two Muslim congresswomen elected in November. Indeed, several other Democratic presidential candidates endorsed O’Rourke’s remarks about Israel’s prime minister. That same support proved elusive to Omar when she offered her criticism of Israel in February. She took to Twitter on Sunday and posted a simple emoji to publicly acknowledge that she recognized what appeared to be a double standard. https://t.co/x1hZuxASnW — Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) April 7, 2019 Omar found herself in the middle of a firestorm on Feb. 12 after there was outrage over her comment to a tweet about how she and Michigan’s Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib —the other Muslim woman member of Congress—could face consequences for criticizing Israel. “It’s all about the Benjamins baby,” she tweeted in reference to a slang term for $100 bills coined by rapper Notorious B.I.G. When asked whom she thought was paying lawmakers, Omar replied: “AIPAC!” a pro-Israel lobby group. The congresswoman was ultimately forced to apologize, saying that her intention was never to offend “my constituents or Jewish Americans as a whole. . . . This is why I unequivocally apologize.” That, however, failed to quiet the storm. Many Democrats and Republicans were still angry, with some calling her anti-Semitic and demanding her resignation . President Trump described Omar’s apology as “lame.” A second round of outrage against Omar erupted from comments she made at a “progressive town hall” event in Washington, D.C., on Feb. 27. “I want to talk about the political influence in this country that says it is okay to push for allegiance to a foreign country,” Omar said at the event, supposedly referring to Israel. That remark was met with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other Democratic leaders drafting a resolution clearly directed at and prompted by Omar though not naming her specifically. The House passed the resolution that broadly condemned hate and intolerance.

Source: Peathegee Inc / Getty It’s no secret that there has been a rise in mental health issues over the last 40 years. Disorders that use to plague a select few now besets an entire generation — hence the reason why Gen Y has been deemed the “anxious generation”. Older folks are quick to write millennials off as lazy and entitled, but quite the contrary. “A 2017 study found that perfectionism is more prevalent than ever. This is important to note because a lot of research connects perfectionism with anxiety, depression, and obsessive-compulsive disorder.”- The Thirty Even though we have the ability to connect with different kinds of people from all over the world at any given time, thanks to social media, millennials reportedly feel lonelier than any other generation. “A study from the Intergenerational Foundation that compared three generations of young people, today’s millennials are unhappier and lonelier than previous generations, reporting a lower sense of wellbeing across areas including health, relationships, and finances. The quality of family relationships declined “by more than 50 percent between 2005 and 2015″, while close friendships fell by six percent.” – Bustle Research also claims that feeling lonely is as dangerous to health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. Socioeconomics, race and gender also play a part in experiencing loneliness in life — but for millenials as a whole, social media seems to be the biggest culprit. 77 percent of Americans reportedly have a social media account of some kind, but regardless of the platform, the effects on health are the same. “What happens many times when they log on is that you kind of activate a lot of social comparison. People don’t necessarily have to be super aware that this is occurring, but it does. You log on, you’re generally dealing with very curated content on the other side.” – Oscar Ybarra, PhD, a professor of psychology at the University of Michigan Starting your healing process and staying off social media is not as easy as some may think. Social media started out as just a leisure thing to do and now it’s involved in every aspect of our lives. So what’s a practical cure for the daunting feeling of isolation? Experts say that prioritizing social interaction and feeling connected to something or someone are major keys to healing. “Research has found that attachment to even just a place reduces loneliness. If everyone decided to remain in the same city or town for a lifetime, as people once did for centuries, we’d receive the two best remedies for loneliness — a home and a community.” – Psychology Today It’s cool to be independent and self-reliant, but the truth of the matter is that humans are social beings and we need each other. So put down the phone for a day or two or three and go talk to someone IRL.
