Source: Westend61 / Getty U.S. Avocado Supply Will Only Last 3 Weeks If Trump Closes Border In his continued effort to show just how much he hates certain groups of minorities , specifically Mexicans, Donald Trump has threatened to completely shut down the U.S. border in order to curb the “inflow” of Mexican migrants. This is racist at it’s core, but if you’re someone who loves guacamole and avocado toast more than you care about what happens to human beings, perhaps this will strike fear into your soulless existence. According to DailyMail , almost 50% of vegetables and 40% of fruits that are imported into America are grown in Mexico. Let Steve Barnard, president and chief executive of Mission Produce, tell it, we would only have enough avocado for three weeks worth of green cool, creamy dip. A complete shutdown would ultimately cost the U.S. $137 billion in trade imports. ‘When a border is closed or barriers to trade are put in place, I absolutely expect there would be an impact on consumers,’ said Monica Ganley, principal at Quarterra, a consultancy specializing in Latin American agricultural issues and trade. ‘We’re absolutely going to see higher prices. This is a very real and very relevant concern for American consumers.’ Mexico also is said to be a major importer of fossil fuels that are created here in America. Bottom line, a closed border will hurt the U.S., but orangey doesn’t care as long as 53% of dumba$$ white women and the uneducated Bubbas who date their cousins will continue to support him. SMH.
Source: Nia Noelle / Nia Noelle The Disgusting Video Shows Multiple Officers Opening Fire Body-cam footage proves what’s already been reported about Bay Area rapper Willie Bo’ s murder . Twenty-year-old Willie, birth name Willie McCoy, was shot an estimated 25 times by Vallejo cops when the officers found Bo sleeping in his car at a Taco Bell. At the time, McCoy had a gun resting on his lap. According to The Guardian , McCoy’s family continually stood by claims that the officers murder Willie when he wasn’t even alert or awake. Now, disturbing body-camera video has been released, and it shows the young rapper had moved his hand to scratch his shoulder right before the officers opened fire. The videos were released to the public after significant pressure and they also show that: The officers didn’t try to wake McCoy or speak to him after they found the gun in his lap. Instead, they aimed their firearms at his head directly outside the vehicle as he slept for several minutes. One officer said, “I’m going to pull him out and snatch his ass.” The officers realized Willie’s firearm didn’t have a magazine in it, explaining to each other that if it was loaded, it would have a single bullet in it. “He’s only got one shot if he shoots,” one officer said. McCoy eventually made a move by scratching his should but not yet appearing alert. And all six officers STILL fired at him several seconds later. Trash. Trash. Trash. The police department in Vallejo, which is 30 miles north-east of San Francisco, repeatedly claimed that the six cops fired out of “fear for their own safety.” Footage clearly shows, however, that some of them were talking somewhat calmly for nearly five minutes before they unloaded their weapons. Two officers started shooting almost immediately after they arrived on the scene as backup. Police continually refused to release the body-cam footage to the public. Only three relatives of Willie initially got to see the footage in a private viewing. The police department then randomly decided to publish the video on Friday without even warning the family, according to one of their attorney’s, Melissa Nodd. “It’s just a continuing of the insult to injury, the continuous disrespect,” she said. “They’re having to relive it without warning. It’s cruel.” Meanwhile, another lawyer for the family, John Burris, said he plans on filing a civil rights lawsuit against the cops and the police agency. If you want to witness the graphic video for yourself, you can watch it below.

Source: MediaNews Group/Torrance Daily Breeze via Getty Images / Getty College Student Murdered After Getting Into Wrong Car Samantha Josephson, a South Carolina college senior who disappeared Friday night after getting into the wrong car, was murdered, Columbia Police confirmed on Saturday night. According to police, Josephson got into the wrong car after hailing an Uber. An Uber did arrive but could not find her, and the student ended up never returning home or answering any of the repeated calls from her friends, who ended up calling police. Josephson’s body was discovered by hunters on Saturday morning. The police have charged 25-year-old Nathaniel Rowland after tracking down the black Chevy Impala that Josephson was shown entering in surveillance footage. He was driving the car only two blocks from where Josephson was last seen the night prior and police said the car had blood in the passenger seat and the trunk. Police also ended up finding bleach and other cleaning supplies in the car, which they believe he was going to use to scour the vehicle. The car also had automatic child safety locks which prevented its passengers from opening the car doors from the inside. “I will miss and love my baby girl for the rest of life,” Samantha’s father, Seymour Josephson, wrote on his Facebook page following the horrific news. Josephson’s death was the third in less than a week across the University of South Carolina system. On Monday, a student committed suicide and on Friday, baseball player Parker Neff passed away after he collapsed on the field during a game. “The loss of a student is never easy but this has been a particularly painful few days as we have experienced loss on several of our campuses,” USC president Harris Pastides said in a statement. “As a family, let’s continue to pray for all the families experiencing heartache and grief this week.”

Source: Johnny Nunez / Getty DaBaby No Longer Facing Charges After Deadly N. Carolina Shooting According to WSOC-TV , charges against DaBaby for his connection to a deadly shooting in Charlotte, North Carolina have been dropped. The Charlotte-born rapper had been charged with carrying a concealed gun and was arrested after the death of 19-year-old Jalyn Craig. The alleged incident took place at a Walmart in Huntersville, North Carolina on Nov. 5 of last year. Police came to the scene after shots reportedly went off inside the store. They arrived to find that Craig had been hit in the midsection and died. Four people were subsequently taken into custody by the Huntersville Police Department. DaBaby verified that he was indeed involved in the shooting, explaining that it was a matter of self-defense and that the camera footage would support his story. He alleged that while he was shopping with his family, he was approached by two men in the store who had weapons. “If them gunshots ain’t go off, n***a, my fuckin’ daughter could’ve got hit, son could’ve got hit, me,” he said. “Fuckin’ lawyers telling me not to say something and shit, fuck all that. Two n***as walk down on you and your whole muthafuckin’ family, threaten y’all, whip out on y’all, n***a, let me see what y’all gon’ too. You feel me?”
Source: S3studio / Getty Man Gets Arrested For Throwing Coffee In Employee’s Face A man could potentially serve a 16-year prison sentence for throwing hot coffee on a McDonald’s employee, simply because she asked to see his receipt. 54-year-old Joseph Deluca of Cleveland, Ohio was arrested on March 5th for injuring the restaurant worker in back in February. According to reports from Fox 8 , Deluca pulled up to the restaurant’s drive-thru window at 12:30 p.m. and ordered one cup of coffee. The employee accidentally handed him two cups and when she re-checked his order, she asked to see Deluca’s receipt. The customer reportedly laughed and said he ordered both cups, but after the employee asked for his receipt again, Deluca threw the tray of hot coffee in her face before driving off. The store’s security cameras caught the excruciating injury that ended up hospitalizing the employee at MetroHealth Medical Center for both neck and shoulder pain. When Deluca was pulled over by Newburgh Heights police officers, he even ended up confessing to the wrong crime. “I know, I beat somebody up,” Deluca sheepishly told officers, his confession recorded on body cameras. “I beat somebody up, family member or something…he put his hands on my girlfriend and I punched him, and it turned out to be felonious I guess.” Erin Stone of the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Office said, “What is troubling with a case like this is you have someone who is going to work just to do her job. She asks to see his receipt and this angers him immensely and he throws two cups of hot coffee in her face.” According to Yahoo Lifestyle, the prosecutor’s office says that the victim had first-degree burns on her face, neck, and shoulder. Deluca was indicted on two counts of second-degree felonious assault, each of which carries a maximum sentence of eight years in prison.
Source: Handout / Getty As you probably already know, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have a fourth little one on the way, and they’re busy at work getting ready for his arrival. An insider told Us Weekly , “Kim and Kanye have begun work on the nursery. North fully understands what’s going on and is so into it.” And it’s not only the couple’s oldest daughter, who’s excited for her younger sibling, but “Kim is in a great place,” as well, the source also tells Us . But when it comes to actually choosing a name for baby number 4, things aren’t going as smoothly. KimYe has always been known for their unique baby names, so they probably aren’t referencing any baby books for inspiration. “Kim and Kanye are not close to naming the new baby,” the insider added. “They won’t know until the week before and probably only day of. It’s quite the process.” It was first revealed back in January that the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star and her husband are expecting their fourth child together via surrogate. The baby boy is said to be due “in very early May.” The KKW Beauty mogul confirmed that she was expanding her family’s newest addition while on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen with her sisters Kourtney Kardashian and Khloé Kardashian. Kim admits that the news got out there because of her loose lips while drinking during the holidays. “It’s out there,” she admitted. “I got drunk at our Christmas Eve party, and I told some people. I can’t remember who I told, because I never get drunk.” The KUWTK star was honest about the fact that she was initially nervous about adding a fourth child into her already big family, but revealed she’s more at ease while on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon back in February. “I was kind of stressing that my house is so full, but I heard that parents of four are the most enlightened and calm of all parents,” she said at the time. Kanye West and Kim Kardashian tied the knot in 2013, one year after welcoming their first child, North. She became an older sister in 2015 when Saint arrived, followed by Chicago in January 2018.
