Melania Trump may claim to be the most bullied person in the world, but truly, has there been any first lady more scrutinized than Michelle Obama? During her time in the White House (and before—and since), Mrs. Obama was attacked for her race, her hair, her body, and her mere existence as a black woman in a space many…
The women of the White House are beefing over who can outpose whom with little black girls.
Before we get too deeply involved in the silly story about Elizabeth Warren having to prove through DNA testing that she is, indeed, part Native American, let’s not forget something too much of the mainstream media has allowed to drift out of everyday conversation. The man who kept demeaning Warren by calling her…
First lady Melania Trump is doing it again. You know, that thing where she paints herself as a victim and then acts as if she’s rising above her life inside her gilded cage.
First lady Melania Trump never wanted to be here. She thought that she was marrying an old man with one foot in the grave and another on a banana peel, who not only keeps eating family-sized buckets of KFC original recipe but seems to be getting stronger.
Could someone please tell Melania Trump that she is not Meryl Streep in Out of Africa, is not modeling for an old-school Banana Republic campaign, has no hopes of being rescued from her misery by Indiana Jones and can therefore chill with the “safari chic”?
Fun fact: There is currently an exhibit called Why They Wore It: The Politics and Pop Culture of First Ladies’ Fashion on display at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum in Yorba Linda, Calif. It’s the first exhibit to display a garment from the current first lady, Melania Trump.
Melania Trump’s parents didn’t get stopped at the border for their second daughter to be ripped from their arms. They didn’t have to pine for the day that they’d all be reunited; they didn’t have to wonder if she was safe or being fed properly or even if she slept on a bed. They never had to wonder if she was sleeping…
On Independence day, Therese Patricia Okoumou scaled the feet of the iconic statue at Liberty Island to call attention to Donald Trump’s cruel, xenophobic immigration policies. Days after her arrest, Okoumou, herself an immigrant (she was born in the Democratic Republic of the Congo), said she was specifically moved…
Congressional candidate Mark Roberts is hot water after an offensive tweet in which he shamed sex workers and claimed that the first lady—she of the esteemed and highly forgotten, stupidly named Michelle Obama ripoff campaign “Be Best”—a “hoebag.”
The first lady is still modeling it seems, after she reportedly earned anywhere from $100,000 to $1,000,000 in royalties from images of the Trump family as part of an unconventional licensing agreement with Getty Images.
“It’s a jacket,” Melania Trump’s spokesperson said when the first lady chose to wear a Zara jacket bearing the words, “I really don’t care, do U?” last week. But as former forever first lady Michelle Obama’s former stylist Meredith Koop reminded us last weekend, first ladies never make unconscious fashion statements.
When it comes to public displays of privilege, perhaps there are no two greater examples of the entitlement that accompanies whiteness than Melania and Ivanka Trump. They are hailed as accomplished, successful icons of feminism and flawless beauty based solely on their achievements in the lucrative field of being…
Anyone who says personal style isn’t political is fooling themselves—and anyone who’s ever been discriminated against because of their chosen hairstyle or non-gender-conforming style of dress knows this. From “message tees” to choosing to wear our natural hair to work (or on the red carpet), our appearance is our…
Melania Trump exists in what appears to be a loveless relationship with her husband.
I find it rich that President Donald Trump’s mighty band of ravenous deplorables, aka Trump supporters, love to push this “Speak English” doctrine to those from other countries who communicate in their native tongues. Remember the asshat lawyer who went full “MAGA” at a New York City lunch spot because two workers…
File this under “I’m not an immigrant but you are”: Deplorable First lady Melania Trump wore a cargo jacket that would better be described as “IDGAF” than “insensitive” during her “surprise” trip to Texas (doubtful, since there were painted signs welcoming her upon arrival) to visit immigrant children heartlessly…
On Thursday, first lady Melania Trump made a surprise trip to see firsthand a border detention facility where children were being held after being separated from their parents.
No matter how sickening the White House may be—and trust me, I’m aware that it’s a putrid dumpster fire of chaos and hate—children are off-limits. On the eve of reports that President Donald Trump is finally going to end the practice of ripping away migrant children from their parents at the U.S. border, actor Peter…
