Trump Says He’s Withdrawing National Guard From Washington
After a week of clashes between law enforcement and protesters, Trump says that he’s pulling the National Guard out of D.C. Donald Trump’s been at the receiving end of backlash this week but that’s not actually anything new. His decision to bring in the National Guard as protests erupted across the country only led to more harm than good with peaceful protesters facing excessive force at the hands of law enforcement officials as they protest against it. The mayor of Washington, specifically, demanded that Trump pull the National Guard out of the city. She even went as far as...

Goodell noted that he wants to protest with the players now and that the NFL is committed to fighting against racial injustice. The commissioner even said that the league wouldn’t be anything without black players which is very true considering 70 percent of the league is black. According to Pro...

Lil Wayne Backs Up Stance On Police: "A White Cop Saved My Life"
Lil Wayne elaborated on his views on police by recounting his own experiences with law enforcement, including the time a white cop saved his life at 12 years old. Lil Wayne has been catching some flack for his recent comments about police brutality in response to George Floyd’s murder, and he’s been doing some damage control on Young Money Radio ever since. In the wake of the police killing of Floyd in Minneapolis last month, Wayne made some remarks that did not sit well with some people. “We have to stop viewing it with such a broad view, meaning we...
RJ Payne Addresses Eminem’s Praise & Those Who Say His Co-Sign Doesn’t Mean Anything
During Eminem's chat with Lil Wayne last month, he shouted out RJ Panye as an under the radar rapper who's killing it. Wayne agreed that Payne was one to watch. Payne acknowledged The GOATs co-sign during a discussion with Mikey T The Movie Star of Report Card Radio. After he did, he pushed back on those who don't think getting that kind of shout out from Eminem was a big deal.

Even so, there are still many people advocating for a second term but the numbers are seemingly decreasing, at least within his own party. Major Republican figures have denounced Trump as the 2020 election approaches including former president George W. Bush, new reports claim. New York Times...
Ben Carson Roasted After Misinformed Colin Kaepernick Take
Ben Carson clearly didn’t do his research on Colin Kaepernick. Ben Carson has been known to put his foot in his mouth from time to time, especially when he starts speaking out on things he doesn’t know much about. For a brain surgeon, Carson had displayed very little understanding of political concepts and when he’s interviewed, he seems to be pretty ill-prepared and downright misinformed. Well, today, Carson was misinformed once again as he was asked about Colin Kaepernick and other athletes who kneel during the National Anthem. Throughout the interview, Carson explained that these players would get a...Recent Posts
