As Americans are still trying to come to terms with the outcome of the 2016 presidential election tensions are still at an all-time high, especially when not only the President-elect himself continues to fan the flames, but also his batch of extremist conservative supporters.

Melania Trump has clearly learned a lot from her husband. The impending First Lady just used the threat of a lawsuit to get an everyday citizen to grovel at her feet, while also do her exact bidding. In this case, however, we can’t really hold anything against Melania. She was just defending her son, after all. Allow us to explain… Early last week, a YouTube user named James Hunter shared a seven-minute video of Barron Trump on the campaign trail with his father. The footage featured the 10-year old acting restless in a chair, clapping without having his hands touch and exhibiting other signs on the spectrum of Autisim. This is what Hunter wondered and alleged, that is. The video then went mainstream after Donald Trump rival Rosie O’Donnell linked to it on her Twitter account, asking followers whether Barron was actually Autistic. This created quite an uproar, although Rosie later tried to explain that her own daughter is Autistic and she was simply saying that Barron’s diagnosis might help bring attention to this disease. O’Donnell didn’t hide her disdain for the President-Elect, but said she has no “ill will” toward members of his family. But she still helped the video go viral, which prompted Melania Trump to say she would sue Hunter if he did not remove it from the Internet. Via a statement through her lawyer, Melania also plainly said that Barron Trump is NOT Autistic. On Tuesday, not only did Hunter obey Melania’s instruction that he take down the video, but he also offered a very public and heartfelt Mea Culpa. He even put it on YouTube. The video is titled “My Apology To Melania and Barron Trump” and it is comprised of the following words: “On November 11, 2016, I posted a YouTube video titled: ‘Is Barron Trump Autistic #StopTheBullying.’ “n the video, I suggested Barron Trump might suffer from autism. This is in fact, 100 percent false. “It was incredibly irresponsible of me to diagnose Barron Trump using a selection of misleading videos. Many of the videos I used showed Barron Trump behaving like any normal kid would at 3 a.m. “I falsely correlated him trying to stay awake and occasionally doing quirky things, with him suffering from autism. This was incredibly foolish of me.” You can watch the apologetic video here: Barron Trump Video Creator Issues Apology Hunter continues in it: “My video was originally intended as an anti-bullying video, as I myself suffer from autism and wanted to educate people. Unfortunately, I completely misdiagnosed a person and ended up making a video that was false, defamatory and malicious. “I retract every single statement I made in that horrendous video, and want to sincerely apologize to the Trump family, especially to Melania and Barron Trump. “I can understand if you might not want to accept my apology, but please know I didn’t mean to hurt anyone with my video. “I wish your family nothing but good luck, safety, and love, as you prepare to become the next First Family of the United States.” Sounds pretty darn sincere, doesn’t it? We’re guessing no lawsuit will be filed and this will be the end of this scandal. We can all now return to wondering what the heck Barron’s father will Tweet next… View Slideshow: Donald Trump on 60 Minutes: 13 Major Revelations
Back in March of 2012, arch-conservative media personality Andrew Breitbart passed away at the age of 43. The unexpected nature of his death, coupled with his reputation for leveling wild accusations at high-ranking Democrats made for fertile ground for the sort of conspiracy theories that Breitbart so often espoused and propagated during his life. The most common, of course, was that Breitbart was killed in an assassination ordered by a coterie of the politicians he’d spent his life antagonizing. When an autopsy revealed Breitbart passed away as a result of heart failure and no evidence of foul play emerged, the theorists mostly quieted down. However, Breitbart’s name is again in the news this week, as a result of Steve Bannon ‘s appointment as President-elect Donald Trump’s chief strategist, so perhaps it was inevitable that allegations of a cover-up surrounding his death would once again begin to circulate on social media. For several years, Bannon served as the executive chair for Breitbart’s eponymous far-right news website. His controversial appointment by Trump (Bannon has ties to both the white nationalist and “alt-right” movements.) came on the heels of the Wikilieaks release of thousands of emails sent by Hillary Clinton top advisor John Podesta . In the minds of conspiracy theorists, Breitbart and Podesta’s names are forever linked, and the fact that they’ve both been in the news in recent weeks has revived interest in a tweet that Breitbart posted shortly before his death: “How prog-guru John Podesta isn’t household name as world class underage sex slave op cover-upperer defending unspeakable dregs escapes me,” Breitbart wrote in February of 2011. Sunday night saw an increase in Google searches and social media mentions pertaining to Breitbart, particularly on the micro-blogging site Gab, which was recently described as “the alt-right’s own Twitter” by Wired magazine. “One of America’s best an most respected independent journalists at the time; he is making a very bold claim about John Podesta — back then — based on his own research,” former Huffington Post contributor David Seaman wrote on Gab. “This is years before WikiLeaks came out.” Seaman and others allege that Podesta helped cover up a child sex ring organized by billionaire and convicted child molester Jeffrey Epstein, who also had close ties to Donald Trump. There is no evidence of a link between Podesta and Epstein, but Trump has praised the admitted pedophile as a close friend, stating on at least one occasion that he and Epstein bonded over their shared love of “beautiful women.” View Slideshow: Steve Bannon: Who is Trump’s White Nationalist Chief Advisor? A child rape case against Trump was dropped for unknown reasons earlier this month. Many Breitbart assassination theorists believe the journalist was close to exposing Epstein’s connections to several major political figures, a scandal that they’ve dubbed “Pizzagate,” in reference to Podesta’s alleged use of code words in leaked emails.
Pastor John Kilpatrick celebrated the victory of Donald Trump and the defeat of Hillary Clinton with a praise session where he paced while speaking in tongues. The good pastor said Trump was able to overthrow “the Jezebel” and also said he’s now “free.” Jezebel talk comes at 7:50.
When one thinks of efforts to bridge the gap between people of different faiths and help our nation heal during times of widening divisions, Amazon probably isn't the first organization to come to mind. Nevertheless, the online retail giant has debuted a new holiday commercial that seems to be a direct response to the growing problem of Islamophobia in the Western World. Set in England, the ad features an Episcopal priest and a Muslim cleric enjoying tea and griping about shared ailments. Eventually they part company and use Amazon's Prime service to send one another presents. Each of them gets a knee brace in the mail (presumably with free shipping) and reflects fondly on their friendship as he slips on. The message is clear: Whether you're a Christian, Muslim, Jew, Hindu, Buddhist or atheist – getting old sucks. We kid. As the priest and the cleric both kneel (now with less pain), it's clear that the ad intends to remind us that we're all more alike than we are different. Not to get all political in our description of a warm-and-fuzzy Amazon ad, but it's an important message during a time when the media has been forced to frequently use the phrase ” Muslin ban ” in its coverage of the guy who will soon be president. Interestingly, some advertising industry experts believe this to be the first commercial featuring a Muslim cleric ever to be broadcast on mainstream American television. “I can’t think of one. There are plenty of religious figures in televisions, especially sitcoms and police procedurals. But no ads with imams,” says Tobe Berkovitz, advertiser professor at Boston University. Toss out that giblet if the conversation gets too political during tomorrow's feast.
In honor of this season of family togetherness, allow us to share with you a story of father-daughter bonding that’s downright … * throws up in mouth * touching. As you may have heard, Donald Trump was elected president recently in an election that shocked literally everyone, including Donald Trump. The last two weeks have been filled with reminders that Trump had little expectation of getting elected, not the least of which is that his wife and youngest son clearly have no intention of moving into the White House with him. Of course, we can’t blame Barron for not wanting to change schools midyear just so he can continue to be neglected by the geriatric grapefruit that sneaks into his mother’s room once a year to squeak the springs for 8 seconds. And the situation is only made worse by the fact that Donald clearly favors the children from his first marriage. Or maybe we should say “one of the children from his first marriage.” Or maybe we should say “Donald Trump is sexually attracted to his daughter.” That may sound like a needlessly scandalous thing to say about an accomplished statesman who was just selected for our nation’s highest office in a fair, honest and not-at-all-stolen-by-the-Russians election, and believe us, we hope it’s not true. But sadly, there’s a fair amount of evidence to support the claim. You’re probably familiar with Exhibit A … … which, by itself, probably should’ve been enough to disqualify Donald from any sort of future employment, much less the presidency. Then, of course, there were Trump’s remarks that he would “probably be dating” Ivanka were it not for the fact that, ya know … he’s her freaking father! Yes, that’s probably be sufficient information for us to draw all the conclusions we need to about the odd, odd relationship between Donald and Ivanka, but a disturbing new piece of evidence emerged today in the form of a redacted Washington Post article. The piece, titled “Our next president, the Godfather” and penned Post columnist Richard Cohen, reportedly featured the following passage when it was distributed to syndication outlets: ” Jared Kushner, our Tom Hagen, who married Trump’s stunning daughter Ivanka — ‘Can I ask you something?’ Trump asked someone I know, about his then-13-year-old kid, Is it wrong to be more sexually attracted to your own daughter than your wife?” — has lately lost some of this Boy Scout aura. “It turns out Kushner’s admission to Harvard was preceded by his father’s $2.5 million pledge .” Not surprisingly, it’s not the revelation that Ivanka’s father-in-law may have bought her husband’s way into Harvard that’s receiving the most attention online today. The portion about Trump allegedly asking a friend if it’s acceptable to be sexually attracted to his daughter did not appear in the final edition of the article. View Slideshow: 19 Things Donald Trump Has Actually Said While Running for President Perhaps it was proven untrue, or maybe the Post remembered that Trump is the litigious sort and decided to let him stay focused on hating the New York Times . We may never know, as the Post ’s editorial page editor declined to comment when reached by BuzzFeed. Of course the really crazy part is that this probably won’t even be the most jaw-dropping piece of Trump news you read about today. We’re in for an interesting four years, folks!
