SMFH: The Cheeto In Chief Thinks Funding HBCUs Might Be ‘Unconstitutional’

Because of course… President Trump Suggests That Funding HBCUs Is Unconstitutional Remember that really silly photo op of the HBCU Presidents meeting with Donald Trump ( and aged avocado Kellyanne Conway ) in the White House to discuss HBCU funding? Well if you had any doubt at all that it meant absolutely nothing, then here’s your proof. The Washington Post is reporting that YOUR Crusty Cheeto Head Commander In Chief is wondering if funding a program that helps historically black colleges and universities get loans for construction violates the constitution. Rut roh… “The White House released a signing statement connected to the recently approved federal funding measure. Tucked away in the last paragraph, the White House announced that it would treat a program that helps HBCUs get low-cost construction loans “in a manner consistent with the (Constitutional) requirement to afford equal protection of the laws.” People in higher education circles worried that the statement meant that the president was planning to get rid of a capital financing program that helps historically black colleges repair, renovate and build new facilities. Congress approved the program in 1992 after finding that “HBCUs often face significant challenges in accessing traditional funding resources at reasonable rates,” according to the Education Department. SMH. The United Negro College Fund is who initially noticed Trump’s wording about HBCUs, but according to them they’re not worried—-yet anyway. “We’re not overly alarmed at this point, based on informal reassurances and just our own knowledge of how these funding statement get put together,” Cheryl L. Smith, UNCF senior vice president of public policy and government affairs, told The Washington Post. We sincerely hope Trump doesn’t make any policy changes that affect our beloved HBCUs. It’s clear he and his constituents don’t value them. AP Photo/ Evan Vucci

Touche! A Perturbed T.I. Tells Pestering Peasants His Deteriorating Tiny Nuptials Are His Business, Not Theirs

ATLPics.net T.I. Addresses Fans Who Criticize His Divorce, On Instagram T.I. is stating for the last got-dang time that his relationship and divorce are his personal business, now we fools bet-stay out of it. The rapper posted a PSA to instagram, letting people know that he’s had enough of their internet advice, when they don’t know “anything’ about his relationship with Tiny. This reaction was most likely sparked when earlier today, a fan commented about Tiny holding him down years ago, and now he’s seemingly just letting their relationship slip away. Check it out. Shout out to Level Up Hip Hop for the clip. Yikes! Now here’s the clip of T.I. saying  ‘mind your business, fam’, in his colloquial southern language.

Kailyn Lowry Plans Post-Pregnancy Plastic Surgery: What Will She Have Done Now?

If you watch Teen Mom 2 online , then by now you’re probably already aware that Kailyn Lowry is pregnant. Of course, her third pregnancy has been featured on the show yet, but fans have turned it into their own social media soap opera that now overshadows the events of last season. Most of the online scrutiny has to do with the identity of Kailyn’s baby daddy . Fan theories range from the plausible (It’s probably Chris Lopez.) to the sublimely ridiculous. (There’s a rumor that Kailyn is pregnant by rapper Peter Gunz .) But today there’s a new Kailyn rumor making the rounds, and for once, it has nothing to do with the question of who knocked her up. According to Radar Online, L owry already has a plastic surgery session scheduled for after she gives birth. News of the appointment comes from Dr. Michael Salzhauer, aka Dr. Miami, the same surgeon who performed Kailyn’s Brazilian butt lift  back in January of 2016. “Kailyn is scheduling to have plastic surgery with me after she has this baby,” Salzhauer tells Radar. Citing doctor-patient confidentiality (which he already kinda blew by talking about the appointment at all), Salzhauer refused to go into specifics with regard to what procedures Kailyn is planning to undergo. But tellingly, he did spend a lot of time talking about the relationship between  “There is a myth that you can only have a tummy tuck once you are done having kids,” he spilled. “But it’s not really true. You can have a tummy tuck after your first kid and if you get pregnant you can have another one. The body is amazingly elastic.” So there you have it. We think it’s safe to say Kailyn will be undergoing a tummy tuck following her third pregnancy. Obviously, she’s not alone, as the majority of the stars of the Teen Mom franchise have had some sort of work done over the years. Try watching old seasons of the shows and doing a shot every time you notice a major and unnatural change in one of the girls’ appearance. Actually, don’t do that. You’ll die of alcohol poisoning before you even make it to TM2, and we don’t need that on our conscience. View Slideshow: Kailyn Lowry: Timeline of a Turbulent Teen Mom Life

Kourtney Kardashian: Did She Photoshop Those Hot Mexico Pics?

Kourtney Kardashian is frequently touted as the “real” sister in her famous family, a blessed reprieve from her plastic, pretentious siblings. If this report regarding her smoking hot Mexico photos is any indication, however, Kourt’s pristine reputation could be in serious doubt. Case in point, look at the photo above. You’re welcome. Now, once you pry your jaw back up off the table … Her Instagram followers were undoubtedly drooling over the shots of her derriere that made it to social media, but they did raise questions. Is Kourtney, who just turned 38, doctoring images of herself in light of the Kim Kardashian cellulite photos that recently leaked online? Celebrity photographer and Photoshop expert Alan Barry, quoted by venerable Internet celebrity gossip publisher Radar Online , says yes. “Her upper left back has been edited in to a perfectly straight line,” Barry explained . “Both of her butt cheeks have been heavily edited. “And badly at that.” The gorgeous mother of three, he believes, went to town on that butt (digitally) “to remove all evidence of any kind of cellulite or marks.” “I would think they would learn by now.” Whether his analysis is true or not, and regardless of whether it matters, it’s not the first time she’s been accused of such not-so-handiwork. Last year, Kourtney shared a hot tub photo in Iceland which many observers believed had also been altered to smooth out her backside. Then there was the below shot featuring herself and daughter Penelope that was live for just a few short moments before she deleted it. Why, you ask, would she – a Kardashian, and by definition an over-sharer – take down a seemingly harmless picture of herself?  “Start at her waist,” Berry said. “When you come down she has altered what would be her hips down to where her hand is on one side.” “And where the child is on the other side. I don’t know what applications they’re using, but in Photoshop you would actually use the clone tool.” “There’s a jagged line. Her daughter’s face has actually been pulled over by the software. Her daughter’s head has been turned into an alien!” “If you go above her waist to the bend in her right elbow alongside her body, below her right breast, if you look at that line that would be her torso.” “That’s been played with. She had a little muffin-top thing going on there and that line has been altered extensively by trying to blur it out.” “[She tried to] shrink it because you notice on that side her body doesn’t extend out. It’s a flat, straight line from her elbow to her torso.” That’s quite the breakdown, and maybe has some merit to it, but let’s be honest, we’re willing to overlook a few photo alterations. When Kourtney Kardashian takes a trip to celebrate her 38th birthday, and posts images like this, we are the ones who should celebrate. As depicted in a number of photos and tweets from sister Kim, the sisters had a wild, crazy, borderline naked time south of the border. Are we really worried about Photoshop?! If she’s trying to sell products using bogus pics to influence fans, that would be one thing, but come on, who doesn’t edit their photos? Exactly. So call her out if you want, but that doesn’t change the fact that the gallery below is a gift from the heavens. Or at least Mexico.

Internet Hero Catches Girlfriend Cheating, Reacts Like a Boss

There are few feelings worse in the world than learning your significant other is cheating on you. So can you imagine the shock, pain and anger you'd feel if you actually walked in on said significant other and another man in bed? That's exactly what happened to a Facebook user named Duston Holloway. Yet… he somehow resisted the urge to yell, scream, beat the guy up or throw his girlfriend's belongings all around the room. Instead, he calmly took note of the situation and snapped a bunch of photos of the pair between the sheets. He then shared these images on Facebook, partly to shame his lying girlfriend, but partly (we hope) to take pride in how he handled the situation. Scroll through the photos below, take a look at the responses Duston has received and maybe send Holloway some naked pics, hot ladies of the Internet. The guy totally deserves them.  1. It’s True, They Do! Duston shared this important message prior to giving his followers a look at what he walked in on. 2. Three is an Awkward Crowd There’s Duston in the bottom right-hand corner. There’s his girlfriend in bed (to the left). And there’s some dude who is decidedly NOT Duston. 3. Wakey, Wakey… Or just stay asleep. I’ve got some more angles I’d like to shoot from. 4. So, This Sucks It does. But you’ll find someone better, Duston. And you are now an Internet legend. 5. Know What’s Better Than Waking Them Up? Sharing these photos on Facebook while they sleep, so they sign on in the morning to a flood of shock, scorn and humiliation. HA! 6. Duston Went Viral for His Efforts Your dude?
