The Most Unqualified President In History Says Stacey Abrams Is Not Qualified To Be Governor

More here:

S tacey Abrams  clearly has Republicans shook. She is running for governor of Georgia on a campaign to expand Medicaid, enact sensible gun laws, protect public schools from privatization and much more. Her opponent, Brian Kemp  — Georgia’s secretary of state who oversees elections — wants to make healthcare less accessible, repress the right to vote and give people even more access to guns, including the AR-15 automatic weapon used in the Pittsburgh synagogue massacre. In addition, Kemp has been accused countless times of voter suppression and even former President Jimmy Carter called on Kemp to resign as secretary of state . But now, because Abrams was slightly ahead in the polls, Trump was directing his nonstop lies at her. See Also: Bill Cosby Sentenced To 3 To 10 Years In Prison For Sexual Assault Conviction After hearing that Oprah Winfrey was campaigning for Stacey Abrams , Trump said, “I’ve always liked Oprah… But the woman that she’s supporting is not qualified to be the governor of Georgia by any stretch of the imagination.” He continued: “She is not qualified to be the governor of Georgia — not qualified. Georgia is a great state, it’s a great, great state. Take a look at her past, take a look at her history, take a look at what she wants to and what she mind for the state. That state will be in big, big trouble very quickly. The people of Georgia don’t want that.” “I’ve always liked Oprah… But the woman that she's supporting is not qualified to be the governor of Georgia by any stretch of the imagination,” Donald Trump said, adding that he would be in Georgia soon to campaign for Brian Kemp pic.twitter.com/LrEyrppBjY — POLITICO (@politico) November 1, 2018 Not qualified? Stacey has degrees from Spelman College, the LBJ School of Public Affairs at the University of Texas and Yale Law School. She was the founder of the New Georgia Project, which submitted more than 200,000 registrations for voters of color. Abrams co-founded NOW Account, which is a financial services firm that helps small businesses grow, helping to create jobs in Georgia. In addition, according to her campaign page , “Stacey became the first woman to lead either party in the Georgia General Assembly and the first African American to lead in the House of Representatives.” Abrams is not only qualified to be Governor, she is also even more qualified to be president than our current divider in chief.

Meghan Markle is a Huge LIAR, Alleges You-Know-Who

So much for the truce between Samantha Markle and Meghan Markle. This may come as a shock to anyone that has been following the (one-sided) dispute between these half-siblings, but Samantha has gone ahead and once again called the Duchess of Sussex out. In very harsh fashion. Just a week ago, Samantha was saying nice things about Meghan. No, it’s true! After learning that Markle and Prince Harry were expecting their first child, Samantha claimed she was willing to put the past behind her and happy to look toward the future. “Everybody just needs to shut the heck up and let this be a great thing for them, for the world, for the family and that’s where I’m at,” Samantha told DailyMailTV , adding at the time: “It’s so important that everybody put their egos aside. Meghan’s done some things with my dad, but in my heart, I love her and I want her and the baby to do well.” Nice sentiment, right? To borrow a term used by folks in Meghan’s new homeland, however, it was also total rubbish. View Slideshow: Meghan Markle: 19 Cruelest Things Her Own Family Has Said About the Duchess On Wednesday, Meghan gave a speech at the University of the South Pacific in Fiji as part of her ongoing tour with her husband and her impending child. “As a university graduate, I know the personal feeling of pride and excitement that comes with attending university,” Meghan began her speech. Simple enough, no? “From the moment you receive your acceptance letter, to the exams you spend countless late nights studying for, the lifelong friendships you make with your fellow alumni, and the moment you receive your diploma,” Meghan continued. “The journey of higher education is an incredible, impactful and pivotal one.” Added the Duchess, apparently angering Samantha to a serious extent: “I am also fully aware of the challenges of being able to afford this level of schooling for many people around the world – myself included. “It was through scholarships, financial aid programmes and work-study where my earnings from a job on campus went directly towards my tuition – that I was able to attend university. “And, without question, it was worth every effort.” In response to Meghan’s speech, Samantha went off on Twitter about what she says is Meghan’s true educational background, writing: “Our father paid for all of her education! This speech is not true.” Stop the enabling!” Samantha also Tweeted. “Do not ever reward a lie it does not matter how fluffy it is! It is wrong and there is no force on the planet that will take this away from my father. She should inspire women with the truth and with gratitude! “Roll [sic] model thankfullness and truth, not lies.” Harry and Meghan are currently on their first royal tour as a married couple. The stars will wrap up the tour next week in New Zealand — and we’re guessing they don’t address Samantha’s latest comments. Why justify them with a reply, right? They haven’t done so in the past, not even when Samantha basically said Meghan was a puppy killer . We’re pretty sure she wouldn’t do that. And we’re also sure she’ll makea great mother. And we’re absolutely sure that Samantha Markle sucks.

Beard Or No Beard: Do You Prefer These Famous Men With Or Without A Beard?

See the original post here:

Source: Scott Halleran / Getty Just as makeup does for some women — beards have the ability to transform men into totally different people. Most women feel that the thicker and more groomed the facial hair, the more attractive and manly you are. However, there are some who feel that a clean face is the way to go.  At the end of the day, facial hair is a subjective thing, but are men with beards more desirable?   According to the New York Times : Barnaby Dixson, a human behavioral ecologist at the University of Queensland and a co-author of the beard length study, research has also found that facial hair is associated with some antisocial traits, such as aggression and social dominance. While these traits might not be pleasant if you’re looking for a fun fling, they might be alluring if you want an alpha male to support your family and fend off predators. It’s not just women who prefer bearded alpha males — men also prefer men with facial hair. Dr. Dixson and colleagues asked 1,577 men and women from Brazil and the Czech Republic about facial hair. Compared to heterosexual women, gay men had stronger preferences for men with more facial hair. Usually, we honor the beard-toters during No Shave November. But today is National No Beard Day, and guys often celebrate by shaving their beloved beard and starting from scratch.That made us think of some of our favorite beards in Hollywood and if we prefer the men with or without the facial hair? Hit the flip and you be the judge! Share your thoughts with us on Twitter and Facebook. via GIPHY

‘Hidden Figure’ Behind First Computer-Generated Rough Draft Of A U.S. Naval Ship Dies At 83

SplashNews.com Raye Jean Montague Passes Away A brilliant woman lauded as the “Arkansas Hidden Figure” has passed. Raye Jean Montague of Pine Bluff, Arkansas died Tuesday at 83. She like Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan, and Mary Jackson who were the “Hidden Figures” of NASA’s John Glenn launch , excelled in fields of STEM. Montague was an internationally-registered professional engineer and created the first computer-generated rough draft of a U.S. Naval ship. Montague appeared on “ Good Morning America” last year with Janelle Monae to discuss her accomplishments and told host Robin Roberts what it was like to excel despite living in the segregated south. “I’m known as the first person to design a ship using the computer,” said Montague. And I was the first female program manager of ships in the history of the Navy, which was the equivalent of being a CEO of a company.” Montague attended the Arkansas Agricultural, Mechanical and Normal School now known as the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff, an HBCU. She originally planned to attend the engineering school at the University of Arkansas but they did not accept black people at the time. In addition to being a trailblazing engineer, Montague was a proud member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., the first sorority founded by African-American women. The sorority recognized her passing this week with a special message and sent condolences to her chapter, Beta Pi Omega in Little Rock, Arkansas. Raye Jean Montague, known as the Arkansas Hidden Figure, has passed away at 83. She was a United States Naval Engineer credited with creating the first computer generated rough draft of a U.S. Naval ship. She was a member of the Beta Pi Omega Chapter. pic.twitter.com/taKMOjeqZS — Alpha Kappa Alpha (@akasorority1908) October 15, 2018 R.I.P. to this Hidden Figure, we send our condolences to her family and friends.

No Boys Allowed: Same-Sex Mouse Couple Gives Birth To Healthy Babies 

Getty Scientists have found a new way to remind humans that technically, we know nothing. Chinese biologist recently helped same-sex female mice have babies using gene editing and stem cells. However, in a separate litter, the mice babies with two dads died soon after birth. BBC reports : It was easier with double mums. The researchers took an egg from one mouse and a special type of cell – a haploid embryonic stem cell – from another. Both contained only half the required genetic instructions or DNA, but just bringing them together wasn’t enough. The researchers had to use a technology called gene editing to delete three sets of genetic instructions to make them compatible (more on that later). The double-dad approach was slightly more complicated. It took a sperm, a male haploid embryonic stem cell, an egg that had all of its own genetic information removed and the deletion of seven genes to make it all work. But will human same-sex couples be able to have healthy children on their own any time soon? Dr Teresa Holm, from the University of Auckland, told BBC: “[The research] may even lead to the development of ways for same-sex couples to reproduce healthy children of their own. But there’s significant ethical and safety concerns that would need to be overcome”. At the pace science is going now, same-sex human couples will be able to do the same thing as the mice by the year 2030. We shall see.

Pennsylvania Candidate For Governor Defends His White Supremacist Comments

T he Trump-backed candidate for Pennsylvania governor refuses to apologize for repeating an anecdote from the white nationalist site InfoWars at a Sept. 12 campaign rally. The anecdote compares nonwhite undocumented immigrants and Muslims to a racoon infestation that only President Trump  can exterminate. SEE ALSO: Trump Continues to Embolden White Supremacists To Run For Office Scott Wagner , a former state senator who won the GOP gubernatorial nomination, said in a statement on Thursday that his reference to racoons was not a metaphor for any specific group of people, as was used in the original InfoWars piece, PennLive.com reported. Instead, racoons represent problems that he intends to “solve” like Trump does. 'We are being invaded:' Republican Scott Wagner repeats anecdote from white nationalist site https://t.co/vs78Ybg4iQ — PennLive.com (@PennLive) September 20, 2018 Trump’s embrace of the racist far-right wing of his party has encouraged some of them to run for office and to express racist views—sometimes using coded language. Add Wagner to the list that includes Corey Stewart in Virginia and Ron DeSantis in Florida , who both have Trump’s support. The president endorsed Wagner during a rally in August. “We are honored to be joined tonight by your state’s Republican nominee for governor. A great guy. Somebody I know well. He’s going to be one hell of a governor. He’s tough, he’s smart — Scott Wagner,” Trump said. At his own rally in September, Wagner told the crowd that he knows some people compare him to the president, according to the Tribune Review . “He and I, we know there’s a swamp. He knew there’s a swamp in D.C.; there’s a swamp in Harrisburg (Pennsylvania),” the candidate stated before reading the InfoWars anecdote. Pennsylvania’s Democratic Party called on Wagner to apologize. His comments were “repugnant and racist. This just shows he has no business ever serving in public office again,” said the party’s spokesman Mike Mikus , according to the Tribune. But if Wagner is anything like his idol, Donald Trump, he’ll try to ride a wave of bigotry into the governor’s mansion in November.
