T he voter suppression outcries heard during Stacey Abram ’s historic run to become the nation’s first Black woman governor all but disappeared in Georgia’s runoff election—now that Brian Kemp is no longer in charge of the state’s voting process. Last month, Georgia Secretary of State Kemp oversaw his own race for governor, which was close but ended in defeat for Abrams. There was damning evidence that pointed to Kemp using a variety of voter suppression tactics to target Black voters. Kemp resigned under pressure on Nov. 8–after he had declared victory over Abrams.

For his visuals to “Goku” the new age Karate Kid takes to Japan where Dragonball Z was born and shows that the anime series hero isn’t the only one who knows how to shoot a Kamehameha wave out his hands. Pretty good CGI used for that shot.

Source: Brian To/WENN.com / WENN Cardi B Announces She And Offset Are Getting A Divorce With new rumors circulating that Offset was allegedly cheating with rapper Cuban Doll , it appears Cardi B and Offset are no longer living trappily ever after. The two secretly wed in October 2017 and welcomed their daughter, Kulture Kiari Cephus in July 2018. However, as short as Cardi and Offset’s relationship was, it’s been riddled with rumors of infidelity and it appears the two are calling it quits. Cardi B took to Instagram to announce that she and the Migos rapper have split. “So, everybody’s been bugging me and everything and you know, I’ve been trying to work things out with my baby father for a hot minute now,” said Cardi. “We’re really good friends and you know, we’re really good business partners, and you know, he’s always somebody that I run to, to talk to. We’ve got a lot of love for each other but things just haven’t been working out between us for a long time. It’s nobody’s fault. I guess we just grew out of love but we’re not together anymore. I don’t know, it might take time to get a divorce. I’m going to always have a lot of love for him because he is my daughter’s father.” Offset left a comment under Cardi’s Instagram saying, “Y’all won”, likely referring to the number of rumors being spread about possible infidelity. It was all good just a week ago when Cardi B and Offset appeared to be all smiles at the Atlanta Hawks game on November 23rd. But on November 17th, Cardi posted a photo of the two with the caption “I miss you ”, which may have indicated they were going through a rough patch. Either way, according to Cardi, this is it — finally.
