Washington Nationals’ Kurt Suzuki Rocks MAGA Hat At The White House

Source: OLIVIER DOULIERY / Getty Donald Trump might’ve gotten hit with the universal boo’s and “Lock him up” chants from Washington fans during game 5 of the World Series in DC, but the divider-in-chief still has a MAGA supporter in Nationals catcher Kurt Suzuki. Just a few days after Nationals relief pitcher Sean Dolittle told the Washington Post he wouldn’t be joining his World Series Champion team during their visit to the White House due to Donald Trump’s racist rhetoric, Suzuki wasn’t only all smiles during his appearance at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, but he jumped out the window by donning the new era Klansman hood, a Make America Great Again hat. How people of color continue to promote this f*ckery is beyond us, but the Hawaiian born MLB player is obviously unaware of the danger he’d be in if he were ever to find himself in deep red Trump country just based off the color of his skin and his immigrant-ish features. Donald Trump was all too happy to find a public supporter of color on the championship team and proceeded to embrace him from behind, possibly dredging up painful memories for the more than a dozen women who’ve accused the “Grab them by the pu**sy” motto man of sexual assault. “I love you all! Thank you!” Nationals catcher Kurt Suzuki walks up to a microphone outside the White House and whips out a #MAGA hat. Check out @realDonaldTrump 's reaction: pic.twitter.com/PdR8wFnfN8 — Washington Examiner (@dcexaminer) November 4, 2019 But Suzuki wasn’t the only star player to offer Trump his support as OG Nationals star Ryan Zimmerman thanked the divisive fearmonger for “keeping everyone here safe in our country continuing to make America the greatest country to live in the world.” Canceled aaaannnnd canceled. Though most of the team attended the White House celebration, 8 players declined the invite including the aforementioned Dolittle, Anthony Rendon and Javy Guerra amongst others. Don’t be surprised if “treason” charges are brought against them for not publicly kissing the leader’s ring or something.

Meri Brown is About to Leave Kody, Polygamy Expert Predicts

FACT: Meri Brown seems very unhappy these days. ONGOING RUMOR: Meri Brown is about to leave Sister Wives. NEW REASON TO BELIEVE THIS RUMOR: A source who knows something about these kinds of situation has spoken out on the subject. Kristyn Decker is author of Fifty Years in Polygamy: Big Secrets and Little White Lies . Her parents were in a polygamous marriage and she was involved in one herself, prior to finally getting out after over three decades as a member in this kind of relationship. Oh, and she’s also Christine Brown’s aunt. Does this mean Decker knows absolutely everything there is to know about polygamy in general and the Browns specifically? No. But it does make Decker is a more reliable source than just some anonymous tabloid insider, you know? Earlier this week, Kristyn did her best to warn her niece against polygamy, labeling the lifestyle as an abusive cult . Now, however, she’s shifted her focus from Christine to Meri, taking note of Meri’s Instagram account and the many trips she appears to be taking on her own and making an educated guess about the reality star’s future. “That’s the beginning of her leaving,” Kristyn tells Radar , adding of her own experience: “That’s what I did. I had to start taking care of me. I started going to plays, parties and movies, I would find friends.” For several months now, Meri has been taking photos of herself on cruises… on walks… simply standing in the woods. And she’s been including with these photos cryptic captions that continually make it appear as if she’s trying to take stock of her life and is thinking about making some major changes. Most prominently and obviously? That she’s ready to walk out on her marriage . As Sister Wives fans know, Kody and Meri’s marriage hit a very rough patch when he divorced her to marry fourth wife, Robyn, Window in 2014. He then ended their legal marriage to adopt Robyn’s children from a previous relationship. Fast forward to 2016 and Meri getting caught in an embarrassing catfishing scandal , something that created even more of a rift between her and Kody. “It’s hard to be here and work on these relationships in the family,” Meri said on an episode from this past season of the show, adding: “I’m looking in from the outside. I don’t feel like I have a husband and wife relationship.” Kristyn – who has appeared on Sister Wives in the past – told Radar that she’s considered driving to Meri’s bed and breakfast to speak with her, but is worried she would be “shunned.” Instead, she’s therefore offering some advice from afar. And that advice amount to this: GET OUT NOW, MERI! “If you don’t behave you will be treated badly,” Decker says. “Like Kody with how he’s treated Meri. He’s a polygamist, he has the say and power. He’s the God of his kingdom.” And this is what she previously told the same website: Polygamy is a system of abuse overall. Mental, emotional, and spiritual. The groups believe their leaders are the right ones and the others are wrong. Overall, polygamy is a system that’s harmful to men, women, children and society. You will live in polygamy and the women will be submissive. The women must let the men have other wives or they’ll go to hell.

Jenelle Evans to David Eason: I’ll Give You The Land If I Can Have Our Daughter!

As you've no doubt heard by now, Jenelle Evans has filed for divorce from David Eason. Now, this is Jenelle we're talking about, so there's a good chance she's lying, and this is all just a last-ditch effort to save her career. But for the time being at least, the Easons are living in separate states (Jenelle in Tennessee; David in North Carolina). And if we the version of events offered by sources close to Jenelle, she'd be perfectly happy if it stayed that way.  In fact, it seems she reportedly has no problem with allowing David to remain on the property they obnoxiously dubbed “The Land” — but only if he grants of custody of the couple's 2-year-old daughter, Ensley. Here's everything we know about this increasingly bizarre situation:   1. The Easons You probably won’t be seeing any pics like this one for a while. Jenelle and David have called it quits, and sources close to the couple say they did not part on good terms. 2. The Announcement Evans shared the news with fans last week in a surprisingly straightforward Instagram post. 3. Uncharacteristically Quiet “I’ve mostly kept off social media the last few days because I’ve been focused on making some big life decisions,” Evans began. 4. Has Any Of It Been Pretty? “I’ve lived my life on camera since I was 17 years old,” Evans continued. “And a lot of it hasn’t been pretty. But it’s been my life.” 5. Think of the Children “Like anyone else, I want what’s best for my kids, and I want to be happy,” Jenelle wrote. 6. Playing the Kid Card Yes, Jenelle is once again claiming that her kids are the heart of every decision she makes. That’s obviously not true most of the time, but it might be in this case.

OOPS! Amy Roloff Reveals Secret About Future Granddaughter

Note to Amy Roloff: We all make mistakes. We hope you aren’t feeling too terribly about this one. This is what we’re referring to via the above statement: In a now-deleted Facebook Live video, the Little People, Big World star came out and revealed that the child growing inside daughter-in-law Tori Roloff’s womb will be a dwarf. She will “have the same type of dwarfism as her dad Zachary and brother Jackson,” the couple’s 2-year-old son, Amy said in footage that  has since been taken down. Because Amy quickly removed the remark after it was said, we can only presume this is information that Tori and Zach Roloff did not want to be made public at the moment. Back in July, Tori was asked by social media followers whether her second baby would have achondroplasia, the same condition that inflicts both his father-in-law and her husband. Here is how she replied: “So everyone keeps asking after seeing the ultrasound of baby girl if she is a little person or average height, and the answer is we don’t know, and we won’t know until she’s born. [You] can find out through an amniotic draw if you’re having a dwarf or not, but Zach and I opted out of that just because we don’t care either way… “We love her and we can’t wait to meet her.” This may still be true. It may be true that Tori and Zach (and therefore Amy) don’t actually know whether this new child will be a dwarf and Amy is just speculating. But it also may be true that the parents-to-be decided to find out after all, but understandably kept this information private… and Amy accidentally let it slip when asked about the topic on Facebook. “She will be a little person,” Amy told fans in this video. “And just to give you a quick synopsis, they have a 50/50 chance of having a little person like Zachary, or be an average size person.” Concluded Amy in this post: “I commend Tori, she’s a good mom. I also commend her because realizing when you’re not used to it, she’s going to be the different one in her own family, instead of maybe Jackson or something like that. “I think she is going to be great. She is doing great. And I love how they are both parenting Jackson. “I think they’re both doing wonderful in how they are doing that.” Tori and Zach did choose to find out ahead of his birth that Jackson would be a dwarf. Each has since commented on the only real challenge involved in that is keeping their son’s self-esteem high because it will be a little harder for him to do some things that people of average height can do. But Tori recently express another concern about Jackson . “I think my biggest fear is him being treated younger than he is,” she recently admitted, adding in a bit more detail: “He is completely capable, and I never want him to think he can’t do something because I do it for him.” This same quote, it sounds like, will soon apply to Tori’s daughter. She’s due in just a couple weeks — and we can’t wait to meet her! View Slideshow: Tori and Zach Roloff: Secrets of the Little People, Big World Stars’ Private Lives

Raiven Adams Shows Off 16 Week Baby Bump, Ultrasound!

Last month, Bear Brown’s pregnant lady love Raiven Adams resurfaced on social media to deliver an update on her pregnancy. At the time, she offered details on her changing list of symptoms that are making this a less than easy time for her. Now, Raiven is sharing a baby bump pic at 16 weeks, and Bear is showing off an ultrasound! “Not too big yet,” Raiven Adams begins her latest post. She continues: “But I’m sure I’ll miss the little belly when you take up all the Space and I end up looking like a watermelon.” With a hashtag, she notes that she is now 16 weeks pregnant. “My belly ring does not feel tight yet,” Raiven adds. “I have a replacement already that’s used for pregnancy.” “They say around 20 weeks to take it out or switch it,” Raiven says alongside the photo of her growing baby bump. “But as of now,” she shares, “it feels fine not uncomfortable easily moved.” “And if the Pregnancy one doesn’t work out,” Raiven says of the replacement piercing. “I’ll take it out all together depending on my body.” “No medical research shows it’s bad for pregnancy,” she notes. “Just watch your body and do what’s best for you,” Raiven advises her followers. She assures anyone reading: “I research everything I do that could possibly hurt the baby.” “I feel it’s safe,” she announces. “So as long as I have no irritation or pain,” Raiven adds. “I’ll keep it in.” She does caution followers: “This doesn’t apply if you recently had it pierced that has its own risks.” “Mine has been pierced for years,” Raiven concludes. One might ask why she went on that tangent about her navel piercing. Was it simply on her mind? We suspect that she has been bombarded with unhelpful “advice” from followers and wanted to reassure them. That poor girl. Bear Brown also gave his fans and followers an eyefull of their ultrasound. “Hey everybody! Check it out!” Bear’s proud caption begins. He gushes: “So amazing so awesome!” “Raiven’s and my baby, is at 15 weeks!” he concludes. “I can’t wait to hold this little one in my arms!” Gabe Brown, also excited to become a father, commented under his brother’s post. “I’m so happy for y’all,” Gabe begins. “I know how much this means for anyone especially you two,” he continues. Gabe concludes: “No doubt in my mind y’all will be great parents” As sweet as Gabe’s comment of course is, it’s clear that not all of the comments that Raiven and Bear have received have had the same tone. Before they discovered that Raiven was pregnant, Bear and Raiven actually broke off their engagement. Why? Because Raiven, unaccustomed to being a public figure, was bombarded with hate from nasty trolls. Some were horny for Bear, or resented how Raiven had only recently reached the spotlight, or were just hateful. Clearly, she continue to receives trolling, even some that is disguised as concern. Concern trolls are famous for sending messages to pregnant celebrities and reality stars and trying to police their every move. Rarely, it’s okay — no one should smoke while pregnant. Most of the time, it’s controlling nonsense about what brand of cereals they eat. We hope that Raiven’s experiences with fans get easier. Certainly, her pregnancy is only going to get harder from here. View Slideshow: Alaskan Bush People: 13 Secrets They Don’t Want You to Know

Jessi Combs of MythBusters: Cause of Death Revealed

We have an update on the tragic death of Jessi Combs. The former MythBusters host and racecar driver was killed in a car accident late this past August , passing away at the very young age of 36. According to multiple reports, Combs was trying to set a land-speed record for a woman driving a three-wheeled vehicle when the crash took place in Oregon’s Alvord Desert. A statement from Jessi’s family confirmed as much at the time. Now, the Harney County Sheriff’s Office has announced that it has completed its investigation into the crash involving Combs, with cooperation from the North American Eagle Race Team. It was announced an official cause of death. “Based on the evidence collected and examined at the scene of the crash and the evidence recovered by the North American Race Team it appears that there was a mechanical failure of the front wheel, most likely caused from striking an object on the desert,” Lieutenant Brian Needham said in a press release. He added: “The front wheel failure led to the front wheel assembly collapsing. “The front wheel failure occurred at speeds approaching 550 miles per hour.” It’s this last part that really explains it all, of course. Combs was driving at speed literally never driven at before — given the vehicle in which she was traveling — and it’s nearly impossible to know how a car will react to this sort of circumstance. Jessi’s cause of death was determined to be blunt force trauma. This is not surprising, but that doesn’t make it any less sad. Combs hosted MythBusters from 2009-2010. She also appeared in the television series documentary Overhaulin. And, just last year, she stopped as a guest in Jay Leno’s Garage. Said her family upon confirming their loved one’s passing: It is with extreme grief, and in celebration of her life that her family and close friends share that race car driver, and TV personality Jessi Combs, passed away in a fatal crash, where she was pursuing a land speed record in the North American Eagle on August, 27th 2019 on a dry lake bed in Oregon. The details of the crash have not been released at this time. Concluded Jessi’s relatives this summer: Jessi was known for her bright smile, positivity, and tenacious pursuit of the fulfillment of her dreams. Her drive was infectious, and she served as a role model for young Girls, and Women around the world. People that loved her and followed her became family, all bonded together by adventure and passion. Her fans adored her, and she lived to inspire them. We continue to send our condolences to the family members, friends and loved ones of Jessi Combs. May she rest in peace. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Died in 2019: In Memoriam

Miley Cyrus Snubs Liam Hemsworth, Gets Cody Simpson Sober

It’s been less than three months since Miley Cyrus separated from Liam Hemsworth . But Miley clearly subscribes to the theory that the best way to get over an old love is with a new love — or, failing that, a succession of meaningless flings. About 24 hours after the world learned of her separation, Miley was hooking up with Kaitlynn Carter , the 31-year-old socialite or whatever who was previously best known for her fake marriage to Brody Jenner. Many jumped to the conclusion that Miley and Kaitlynn had cheated on their husbands, but they say they were both fully single before they dove into the lady pond together. Anyway, it might’ve been nothing more than some casual rebound friction for Miley, but apparently, for Kaitlynn, the relationship was much more. “Although the relationship with my friend was often referenced in the media as merely a ‘summer fling’ or a ‘same-sex affair,’ it was so much more than that,” Carter wrote in a new essay for Elle . “While it was short-lived, I’ll remain eternally grateful to my most recent relationship for opening my eyes to this unexplored part of myself, and for inspiring a new level of self-discovery and wonder at all the possibilities of life,” she added. Moving stuff — but Kaitlynn may have come on a bit too strong for Miley, who responded to the essay by unfollowing Carter on Instagram. Perhaps to really emphasize the message that she has no room for exes at this point in her life, Miley also unfollowed Liam. Harsh. But hey, Miley’s not just breaking hearts these days — she’s also fixing lives! As you’ve probably heard, Cyrus is dating Cody Simpson at the moment. Cody is a few years younger than Miley, and it sounds like when they met, he was about where she was at that point in her life — new to mainstream fame, partying non-stop, and just generally enjoying being young and rich and high. But these days Cody is substance free, and the only thing he’s getting f–ked up on his new relationship. “4 months sober & still stoned,” Simpson wrote on Instagram this week. That may sound like a bit of a mixed message, but as far as we can tell, Simpson is saying he’s stoned on his love/like/whatever for Cyrus. The message comes just days after Miley offered a similar update: “I’m four months sober,” she wrote in an Instagram Live post. “It’s the best I’ve ever felt. I’m radiating.” Cody confirmed in a recent interview with Us Weekly that the singers are helping one another stay clean: “We both met back in the day when we were partying a lot,” he said . “We had a lot of fun then … but now we’ve found each other in a space where we’re not partying, working real hard and just like [to] keep things healthy.” Here’s hoping Cody’s sobriety isn’t so fragile that it could be broken by something like being dumped and then promptly ghosted. Because that seems to be Miley’s M.O. these days. View Slideshow: Miley Cyrus Risks Catastrophic Nip-Slip on Saturday Night Live

Let’s always keep them in mind, shall we? 4. But Evans Has Finally Had Enough Following many months of ugliness and chaos — lowlighted by Eason almost certainly breaking Jenelle’s collarbone a year ago and then murdering her dog this past spring — Jenelle told followers a few days ago that she is ending the marriage. 5. How Did She Explain This Decision? “I’ve mostly kept off social media the past few days because I’ve been focused on making some big life decisions. I’ve lived my life on camera since I was 17 years old. And a lot of it hasn’t been pretty,” she said on Instagram, more candid than ever before.” 6. And She Continued: “But it’s been my life. Like anyone else I want what’s best for my kids and I want to be happy. With time away from Teen Mom I’ve started to look at my life differently and I know I need to make changes. I’m starting that now.” View Slideshow

Lil’ Kim Mourns The Loss Of Her Father To Alzheimer’s

Lil Kim  has laid her father to rest. The hip hop legend’s father passed after a long fought battle with Alzeimer’s. Kim said goodbye to her father surrounded by family and friends. Fellow Junior Mafia member, Lil Cease , took to social media to show love to his “sis Lil Kim” and “the entire jones family.”   View this post on Instagram My Sis Lil Kim Father Passed Away Last Week!! His Services Was This Week!! Prayers & Condolences To @lilkimthequeenbee @chrisbojones & The Entire Jones Family .. Love Y’all Forever!! #MafiaFamily A post shared by LilCease (@lilcease) on Nov 1, 2019 at 1:15pm PDT   Back in 2012, Lil Kim told OK Magazine that she was stepping up to take care of her father, even though their relationship was strained. “We have to feed him, because he can’t make his own food. He can’t really pour juice. He can get dressed, but we have to help him sometimes. Basically we have to help him do almost everything. He can walk around and stuff like that. And again, it’s early stages,” she said of his Alzheimer’s diagnosis. Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news. ( Terms and conditions ). “He remembers to do some things, but sometimes he forgets some things. Like one time, he forgot to turn off the stove, and the coffee pot caught on fire. We had to run and put it out. It was really crazy.” Continuing, “Here’s the thing – we feel and know that he has an early case of Alzheimer’s. The doctors won’t really diagnose him with it, but we know that he does. They say that it seems to be an early case of it – this is what they’re saying. But he has this shaking-jitter condition that is almost the same thing as – don’t get this wrong, because then people will be like ‘oh, her dad has M.S.’ – no, he almost has the same symptoms as a person who has Multiple Sclerosis where they shake – they shake really bad.

It stems from the situation.” Even though Lil Kim is grieving the loss of her dad, she took to social media to explain that the tragedy led her to heal her relationship with Trina, who also lost a parent recently. “She comforted me and it was exactly what I needed in that moment,” she said.
