Cold War: Things Got SUPER Shady At George H.W. Bush’s Funeral Between The Obamas, Clintons, And Trumps

Source: BRENDAN SMIALOWSKI / Getty Obamas, Trumps, And Clinton Greet Awkwardly At Bush Funeral Today, the 41st President of the United States, George H.W. Bush, was laid to rest. The death of a former President is one of the rare occasions where the current POTUS and all former living Presidents come together publicly. Considering the fact that all the living Presidents and their wives pretty much hate Donald Trump, things will obviously be awkward as AF when they all come face-to-face. Now we didn’t expect fisticuffs, least not during the funeral, but the tension was visibly palpable as Donald and Melania greeted the former First Families. The Obamas and Bill Clinton kept it cute for the most part, but Hillary Clinton, oh, Hillary Clinton wasn’t having any of it. Ice cold. Check it out in the video below. It was all good just minutes before the orange azzhole showed up… It only takes one person to change the climate in the room. pic.twitter.com/sRFrmKGBP9 — Keith Boykin (@keithboykin) December 5, 2018 Did you see Michelle’s face after she shook Donnie’s hand?

‘Merica At Wit’s End: Man Tried To Kill President Trump Using A Forklift

Source: Alexey Fursov / Getty The 42-Year-Old Definitely Didn’t Think This One Through A North Dakota man had plans for Donald Trump and they didn’t involve any MAGA love. According to the Grand Forks Herald , Gregory Lee Leingang, 42, pleaded guilty in federal court on Friday to stealing a forklift with goals to “flip” Trump’s limousine on the day of his Mandan, North Dakota refinery speech. U.S. Assistant State’s Attorney Brandi Sasse Russell said that Leingang knew that the president was coming to town on September 6, 2017 to give his speech at the Andeavor Mandan Refinery, an area which had been cordoned off for his motorcade route. Before the president’s arrival at around 2 p.m., Leingang had stolen a forklift in Mandan and entered the motorcade route, according to Sasse Russell. “The intent was to basically try to get to the limo, flip the limo and get to the president and he wanted to kill the president,” Sasse said. Leingang’s plans were thwarted, however, when his forklift got stuck in a gated area. Once this happened, Leingang dipped only to be caught by the Mandan police, according to Sasse Russell. She said Leingang spilled all the beans about his assassination plans to detectives and a member of the U.S. Secret Service. “He was suffering a serious psychiatric crisis during this incident,” said Michelle Monteiro, Leingang’s public defender. Before stealing the forklift, Monteiro said Leingang set two fires that morning at the Bismarck Municipal Ballpark maintenance shop and the state parole and probation office. Leingang also pleaded guilty to setting these fires and was sentenced to 10 years in state prison. For his whole forklift fiasco, Leingang was charged in federal court with one count of attempting to enter or remain in a restricted building and on grounds while using a dangerous weapon, as well as one count of attempting to damage government property. He reached a plea deal with federal prosecutors on Friday for his first charge. Leingang also pleaded guilty to stealing the forklift and was sentenced to five years. In a separate case he pleaded guilty to burglary and received another five years. He is expected to stay in prison until 2038. Leingang told U.S. District Court Judge Daniel Hovland on Friday that he is diagnosed with bipolar disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and he has been on and off medications since he was 12. Monteiro said Leingang is seeing a psychiatrist and therapist while in prison.

George H.W. Bush Dies; Former President Was 94

George Herbert Walker Bush, the 41st president of the United States and the father of ex-Commander-in-Chief George W. Bush, died on Friday night. He was 94 years old. The sad news was confirmed yesterday by spokesperson Jim McGrath. “George Herbert Walker Bush, World War II naval aviator, Texas oil pioneer, and 41st President of the United States of America, died on November 30, 2018. “He was 94 and is survived by his five children and their spouses, 17 grandchildren, eight great grandchildren, and two siblings,” the former president’s office said in a statement. Concluded this message: “He was preceded in death by his wife of 73 years, Barbara; his second child Pauline “Robin” Bush; and his brothers Prescott and William or “Bucky” Bush.” Bush, a Republican who held the Oval Office for one term, was hospitalized back in April , just one day after laying his beloved wife to rest. He had contracted an infection at the time, but it’s too early right now to know the President’s cause of death. Son George W. spoke on behalf of his siblings with a statement of his own shortly after his father died on Friday.  It reads as follows: Jeb, Neil, Marvin, Doro, and I are saddened to announce that after 94 remarkable years, our dear Dad has died. George H. W. Bush was a man of the highest character and the best dad a son or daughter could ask for. The entire Bush family is deeply grateful for 41’s life and love, for the compassion of those who have cared and prayed for Dad, and for the condolences of our friends and fellow citizens. Funeral details will be announced in the coming days, McGrath also noted. On Twitter, meanwhile, President Trump wrote the following: “President George H.W. Bush led a long, successful and beautiful life.  “Whenever I was with him I saw his absolute joy for life and true pride in his family. His accomplishments were great from beginning to end. “He was a truly wonderful man and will be missed by all!” He and wife Melania also released a lengthy statement that we have included below: Prior to his time as the most powerful man in the world, the Massachusetts native served as an aviator in the Navy and flew 58 combat missions during World War II. He was awarded three Air Medals and the Distinguished Flying Cross. Bush then served as Vice President for eight years to Ronald Reagan. He was a congressman, ambassador to China and director of central intelligence, receiving the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2011. The former President’s death comes just eight months after his wife of 73 years, Barbara, died on April 17. Even after her passing, Bush remained devoted to his late wife, sitting beside her casket for hours in his wheelchair as mourners paid their respects while she lay in repose one day before her invitation-only funeral. The photos of his tribute made their way around the Internet at the time. Bush’s grandchildren affectionately nicknamed him “Gampy,” and Bush Hager has said on The Today Show that her grandfather “really is one of the most humble, wonderful men.” We send our condolences to his loved ones. May George H.W. Bush rest in peace. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Died in 2018: In Memoriam

Meghan Markle: Pissing Off the Royals With Her Workaholic Ways and Fugly Clothes

Being royalty might sound like a pretty sweet deal, and we’re sure in most aspects it is. But in many ways, marrying into an autocratic family can be a very stressful experience. Not like Game of Thrones stressful, but much more stressful than, say, the ending of The Little Mermaid . Like, there are no dragons (we think), but it’s also not a “happily ever after” situation. You may have heard about Meghan’s breaches of royal protocol and assumed that she’s inhaling giant hoagies at formal dinners or crushing beer cans against her head, a la John Goodman in King Ralph . (Sorry, all of our knowledge about the royal family comes from TV and movies.) But in reality, Meghan’s faux pas are more on the lines of failing to curtsy in the proper fashion and refusing to dress like a 92-year-old woman. “Meghan is being told she needs to start dressing less like a Hollywood star and more like a Royal,” an insider tells The Daily Mail . Meghan’s offenses apparently include not wearing a hat every time the Queen wears one, and wearing black even though no one died. Seriously: “Meghan declined to wear a hat after apparently failing to understand that when the Queen’s aides informed her the Queen would be wearing one, that meant Meghan should follow suit,” says the source. It gets worse. Apparently, Meghan has displayed “a penchant for non-British designers [and a] fondness for wearing black – traditionally worn by Royals only to signify mourning. “No-one gave that memo to Meghan, who in August not only wore a black tuxedo to a special performance of the musical Hamilton , but caused a further frisson by displaying bare legs a good few inches above the knee,” the insider adds. “It is said this rebellious spirit has resulted in raised eyebrows from the Queen, who is a stickler for the rules.” Oh no, not raised eyebrows! We don’t know what’s more confusing, the fact that someone made all these rules, or the fact that anyone still cares about them. And is if it’s not bad enough that Meghan wore black to the theater, the source adds that the Duchess of Sussex is “up at 5 am rain or shine” (why would the weather affect what time she wakes up?), and her work ethic is really starting to piss off royal staffers. “Her particular brand of ‘up and at ’em’ West Coast energy is an uncomfortable fit with the more formal ethos of some palace staff,” the Mail reports. Since when is the West Coast known for its excessive ambition? Get your regional stereotypes straight, Daily Mail! Anyway, we actually believe most of this report. Meghan probably is unlike any of her predecessors — and that’s probably one of the things that drew Harry to her. We’d say the Queen should get used to it, but homegirl is 92. She’s past the point of needing to get used to anything. View Slideshow: Meghan Markle Baby Bump Watch: Is She Showing Yet?

Married at First Sight Season 8: Meet the Newlyweds!

New year. New set of single people who have somehow agreed to exchange vows with someone to whom they were introduced mere months prior. Indeed, Married at First Sight Season 8 premieres on January 1 at 10/9pm on Lifetime and the network has released promotional photos of all four couples at the center of this controversial reality series. Which will defy the odds and remain together, despite the unusual way in which they met? And which will go the way of this Season 7 couple and file for divorce shortly after filming ends? We don’t know yet. But we do know a little bit about each pairing. Let’s get to know them a bit better, shall we? Let’s start with  Will Guess and Jasmine McGriff : McGriff, is 29 years old and was was raised in a traditional household with very traditional gender roles. According to Lifetime, she hails from a tight family; she owns her own home; she and is on the verge of a big work promotion. Guess is q 37-year old who was raised by his mother. He thinks marriage is the overall goal for one to achieve in life — and he’s emotionally, financially and mentally prepared to find his partner. Will is one of the few single friends among his peer group, yet he enjoys spending time with the married twosome because he gains insight into what’s ahead for him. And now for  Luke Cuccurullo and Kate Sisk : Cuccurullo’s parents got divorced when he was just a child. Although he remains close with his mom, he rarely talks to his dad. Due to his upbringing, the engineer tells Lifetime he determined to find “The One.” Oh, and he’s an avid cook and also loves going outside of his comfort zone. As for Sisk? She comes from a tight-knit family with two brothers — and her parents divorced just last year. Still healing from this split, Sisk is pessimistic about love… but remains hopeful that she’ll find the right person for her at some point. Maybe now! And now for  Keith Dewar and Kristine Killingsworth : Keith was mainly raised mainly by his grandmother and is considered a gentleman who yearns to find a partner that is his equal, someone willing to compromise and support him. Dewar is a patient-care technician who specializes in kidney dialysis and adores being a rock for his sick patients. Killingsworth’s parents, meanwhile, have been married for more than 35 years, through many ups and just as many downs. She’s a real estate agent and she hopes to find the “gold standard,” just her parents managed to do. Killingsworth says she’s very comfortable in her own skin and can’t wait to find a man who is similar. And this brings us to  AJ Vollmoeller and Stephanie Sersen : Vollmoeller is a New York native and also an only child; his parents recently celebrated their 45th wedding anniversary this year after meeting in high school. He works as the President and CEO of Future Force Talent Connection and has mostly accomplished his professional goals. However, he’s eager to find a partner to share in his success. An avid foodie and adrenaline junkie, Vollmoeller failed to accomplish this task online and is taking a chance with Married at First Sight after being recommended by a friend. For her part, Sersen is similarly inspired by her parents’ three-decade-long marriage and wants to find a man like her dad. At 35 years old, she’s ready to settle down and start a family. This is someone who loves to travel and hopes she finds a soulmate with whom she can share experiences the globe.
