  • 5 Things That Will Happen Before Jemele Hill Apologizes to Donald Trump

    I do not know Jemele Hill personally, but I wish I did. In truth, I like to say that Hill is a throwback to a 1960s revolutionary (which she is), but Hill is in line with black women today. (Truthfully, black men, black women have been killing us on the “Stand up for yourselves” front.…

    Anthony Scaramucci Mane Wants Paternity Test for Newborn Son Whose Birth He Missed Because He’s a Horrible Person: Report

    I don’t know if it’s possible to have more drama than this administration, but Anthony Scaramucci, aka Mucci Mane, sure is trying.

    Well, isn’t this just like the 1 percent?

    I never thought that Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and I had anything in common, and we still don’t, but old freak-ass Cruz has made himself more human by liking a porn video on Twitter.
