Wait, Did the President Fall Asleep During Queen's State Banquet Speech?
President Trump is having quite the time across the pond. Since his visit to the United Kingdom, there have been protests and even dick pics so it’s safe to say that unless the White House shipped Trump’s sleeping coffin, he’s probably not getting much sleep. On Monday, during a state banquet where the Queen of…

Trump Administration Cancels English Classes, Soccer, Ping-Pong, Legal Aid for Migrant Children in U.S. Shelters
Just when you think the Trump administration can fall no lower than they already have, the entire White House hands American their Pabst Blue Ribbon. In what can only be described as gutless and utterly heartless, the Trump administration has canceled all remotely humane activities for migrant children, most of whom are living in cages…

The Democratic Party Does a Lousy Job Protecting Black Women
“Why are you wearing all black?” I asked my friend, noticing her wearing a long sleeve black shirt, black jeans and black sneakers in the 1,000-degree Arizona heat despite being in an air-conditioned convention hall. She leaned over to me and said: “I just want to warn you, we’re about to do some real disruptive…

Your Celebration of Pride Must Go Further Than Putting Up a Rainbow on Social Media
With the coming of June marks another year where I celebrate being 55 shades of gay. Indeed, I do celebrate my homosexuality every day I chose to take a breath, but June marks Pride Month and with that, the celebration gets kicked up a couple decibels. Unless you’ve been under a rock—and honestly, that might…

Trump Claims He Doesn’t See the Big-Ass Trump Blimp Baby Protesting His Visit in London
It’s time that we come to accept that the United Kingdom does many things better than the United States. Its healthcare system actually cares about the patients more than the profits. The Office U.K. is easily better than its U.S. counterpart. And the U.K. protests way better than the U.S.; they make robots and fun…

Trump’s Clearly Watching Sons of Anarchy Reruns Again, Channels Jax Teller With New Hair Style
President Donald J. Trump, who tells everyone that his middle initial stands for Jax (which is totally a lie unless he’s shortening “jackass” to just “jax”), channeled his inner Sons of Anarchy during a memorial service for Virginia Beach shooting victims at McLean Bible Church, in Vienna, Va. It was Trump’s eighth time in a…

I am sure that Kim Kardashian is already on top of this but Paul Manafort, the president’s one-time campaign chairman who’s serving a federal prison sentence, is heading to the notorious Rikers Island jail in New York City where he’s expected to spend his time in solitary confinement while he awaits state fraud charges.

Trump's Son-in-Law Jared Kushner Claims Racism Doesn't Count If He's Not Involved In It
Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law and holder of a top-level security clearance as an adviser to Trump, participated in a one-on-one sit down with Axios on HBO that can only be described as a one-night-stand between a drunken circus clown and a shitshow that then gave birth to a Jared Kushner interview. During the interview…

In One Day, Jaime Harrison, Lindsey Graham's Challenger, Raises Six Figure in Donations
He’s the son of a single mom and already has an endorsement from Luke Skywalker. (Fine, it’s actor Mark Hamill, who played Skywalker, who showed love—but if I said that Hamill endorsed him, would you even have known who he was?) He’s running a campaign under the hashtag #SendLindseyHome—as in President Trump’s favorite whipping boy,…
