Let select members of the Tropicana Jong-il administration tell it, we needn’t worry about the threat of looming nuclear war. During an appearance on ABC’s This Week, national security adviser H.R.

We Need to Talk About Being Mary Jane
Mary Jane Paul has always been a mess, but her many, many faults are what made Being Mary Jane such an interesting watch. As Kelley Carter wrote in the 2015 BuzzFeed piece “BET’s ‘Being Mary Jane’ Has Started a TV Revolution,” the show was a “revolutionary series about a perfectly imperfect single black woman.” Those…

Issa Didn’t Cheat on Lawrence in Real Life, and Angela Valdes Didn’t Snitch on Ghost. So Stop Sending the Actors Hate Mail
I hate Tariq St. Patrick and want him to die already. After four seasons of watching him behave like an ungrateful, bitchy, ho-ass child (minors can get cursed at after they hit puberty), any Power scene featuring him now physically angers me. Not even Assistant U.S. Attorney Angela Valdes has had that impact on me,…

I Want Better for Halle Berry
Earlier this summer, Halle Berry downplayed her greatest achievement as an actor.

Y’all’s President Has Turned the White House Into The Real Housewives of White Supremacy
I’m beginning to think y’all’s president is a fake-ass Mona Scott-Young. Well, Mona Scott-Young if Mona Scott-Young were a 71-year-old white man with the intellectual curiosity of Cujo (after Cujo was shot dead), and the emotional intelligence of a raging teenager who just gulped the last bottle of Four Loko in North America.

Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood Is Back. Keyshia Cole Seems Happier, Hazel-E Acts Thirsty and Teairra Mari Looks Tipsy
What I love most about Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood is what I hated most about living in Los Angeles: the people. I’m not talking about L.A. natives, who are, more often than not, fine-fine-fine-fine-fine-fine, whew. I’m referring to the transients—specifically, those people who move to L.A. with dreams of being the next big rapper…

Donald Trump Has Always Been a Disloyal Thot
Shortly before Super Tuesday last year, then-Sen. Jeff Sessions endorsed Donald Trump for president. At a campaign rally in Sessions’ home state of Alabama, Sessions explained to the crowd that while “we don’t get everything we want” in a candidate, “at this time, in my best judgment, at this time in America’s history, we need…

As a Salute to Throwback Thursday, We Are Live-Blogging O.J. Simpson’s Parole Hearing
It would feel like hell outside across much of the country on the day O.J. Simpson had a parole hearing to determine whether or not he could leave the Lovelock Correctional Center in Lovelock, Nev., a few years early. Of course, nearly a decade ago, a group of men led by Simpson entered a room…

Business Casual Racist and Longtime Hater of the Blunt Jeff Sessions Would Like to Make D.A.R.E. Great Again
When it comes to what he would like to achieve as attorney general, business casual racist Jeff Sessions has long made many of his goals abundantly clear. When it to comes to black folks, he would very much like for us to stop whining about voting rights, police brutality and the Confederacy’s right to flex.…
