If you’re a fan of her in-laws’ media empire, then you’re probably familiar with Anna Duggar as the long-suffering wife of former reality star and known sexual predator Josh Duggar . While some have accused Anna of enabling her husband’s repugnant misconduct, for the most part, she’s as beloved as Josh is hated. Anna is primarily viewed by fans as one of Josh’s many victims. She’s mostly remained silent on her decision to stay with Josh despite his infidelity and numerous sex crimes, but her defenders insist that Anna is left with little choice, as divorce is strictly forbidden in the fundamentalist community in which she lives. It’s been said that Anna’s family is even stricter than the Duggars with regard to their fringe evangelical beliefs, and many believe that’s another reason the mother of five has stood by her husband. The Duggars appear to have been Anna’s main source of support throughout the scandals of the past several years. And there’s one Duggar daughter in particular with whom Anna seems to have formed a special bond. Anna and Jana Duggar are said to be extremely close, and insiders have reported that recent difficulties have only made their friendship even stronger. Over the past week, several fans in online forums have noted that it’s been exactly one year since Anna made a remark about Jana that garnered a mixed reaction at the time. Jana is still single at 27, a fact that’s considered highly unusual in a family in which girls are taught that procreation is their sole reason for being, and most young women become mothers in their early twenties. As a result of not having any children of her own, Jana has served as an endless source of support to her family, and Anna even went so far as to state that she’s happy her eldest sister-in-law is unattached. “Jana has been such an encouragement and such a rock this past year of my life. She is such a treasure,” Anna remarked on Counting On , adding: “Selfishly, for right now, I’m so thankful that I’ve had her as just a shoulder to cry on. Someone to just laugh with, cry with, pray with. She’s such a treasure.” Yes, Anna indicated that she’s “selfishly” happy that that particular “treasure” is single, and despite several Jana courtship rumors , that’s still the case one year later. Many fans have taken to social media to wonder aloud if Anna still feels that way, but thus far, there’s been no response from Josh’s beleaguered wife.

Tim Mosenfelder/WireImage Lil B’s Tweets Are Getting More And More Out Of Hand If you follow Lil B on Twitter, chances are you either have him or his retweeted muted–otherwise your whole timeline would be the Lil B Show each and every day. Whether it’s his social media personality or his music, Based God is known for his quirkiness, and that’s what makes people so attracted to his persona. Now, however, it seems his Twitter page is getting not only weirder and weirder, but 100 times more problematic. His latest Twitter stunt took place for hours on Friday night, when B sent off a series of suspect tweets staring with him saying “*hits blunt*” and him including a “no homo” somewhere in the sentence. His tweets got him into a beef with Post Malone, and though he hasn’t commented on it yet, he also threw Akademiks in the mix. Someone tell post Malone he is kim K thick and he need to keep wearing them booty shorts when he rapping/singing country no homo – Lil b — Lil B THE BASEDGOD (@LILBTHEBASEDGOD) October 6, 2017 He had multiple rant-topics throughout the night, including white people in hip-hop and being black in America. Though he went on several different rampages, some of Lil B’s cringe-worthy tweets are just too bad to ignore. Go to the next page to see some of B’s craziest tweets from last night, you’ll be sorry you ever did. (Hits the mid pack pack then lights the blunt of strong) ayyy Lil b was going offf today on his Twitter I ain’t gon lie – Lil B — Lil B THE BASEDGOD (@LILBTHEBASEDGOD) October 7, 2017

Image via Michael B. Thomas/Getty Images FBI Labels “Black Identity Extremists” As Threat To Police This is how it starts. Everyone needs to pay attention because one day we might look back at this moment as a pivotal moment when the federal government reinvigorated a campaign against Black protesters and activists . According to ForeignPolicy , the FBI’s counterterrorism unit is warning that “black identity extremists” are a major threat to law enforcement officers. They even have a cute acronym for “these types” of people, BIE. Peep the langage used here: “The FBI assesses it is very likely Black Identity Extremist (BIE) perceptions of police brutality against African Americans spurred an increase in premeditated, retaliatory lethal violence against law enforcement and will very likely serve as justification for such violence,” “Perceptions”. PERCEPTIONS. “Perceptions of police brutality against African Americans”…ain’t no “perceptions”, b!tc#! We KNOW the police whoop our azzes just for living. Our collective response to the police shooting death of Michael Brown in Ferguson is the catalyst for the Black boogie men who are taking aim at cops if you let them tell it: “The FBI assesses it is very likely incidents of alleged police abuse against African Americans since then have continued to feed the resurgence in ideologically motivated, violent criminal activity within the BIE movement,” Again, “alleged”. Pay. Attention. The feds are labeling Black folks who are angry at systemic racism as domestic terrorists. Something that the President didn’t do when addressing the tiki-torchers in Charlottesville. You know what America does when they perceive a group of people to be terrorists…at least when they’re Black or brown. Guess they don’t see neo-Nazis and alt-right azzholes in that same light. Imagine that.
