Southern Baptist Pastors All In Their Feelings After Black Minister Called Them “Whores” For Donald Trump
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: The Washington Post / Getty A Southern Baptist minister from West Palm Beach, Florida, has offended the hell (uh…so to speak) out of a group of his fellow Southern Baptist pastors who appear to feel a way about him bashing the church for its alleged racism and support of ex-president Donald Trump on the first day of the SBC General Convention. [embedded content] “I think some Southern Baptists lost their minds when a Black man was elected president–not all, but some,” said Kevin Smith, a pastor at Family Church in West Palm Beach and former executive director of the Baptist Convention of Maryland/Delaware. “I think some Southern Baptists were unloving to Black people beginning in 2012 with the killing of Trayvon Martin.” Apparently, Smith wasn’t a booked ...
Truth Social Bans Users Who Discuss Trump’s Role in January 6th Insurrection
On Thursday, the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol made a clear case that Donald Trump was at the center of the failed insurrection, but you wouldn’t know it from Truth Social.

KISS’ Gene Simmons: Donald Trump “Allowed” People to Be “Publicly Racist” and “Conspiracy Theorists”
KISS founder Gene Simmons was once a contestant on Donald Trump’s network TV program The Celebrity Apprentice and was friendly with the former president long before he took office. Now, Simmons has come out to blast Trump’s presidency for normalizing racism and conspiracy theories. In a new interview with SPIN, Simmons discussed the cause-and-effect of Trump’s behavior and policies. As is typical with Simmons, there were no minced words. “I know the previous [US] president,” Simmons said. “I knew him before he entered politics. Look what that gentleman did to this country and the polarization — got all the cockroaches to rise to the top. Once upon a time, you were embarrassed to be publicly racist and out there with conspiracy theories. Now it’s all out in the open because he allowed it.” ...
Donald Trump to Launch Streaming Platform for “Canceled Content” and “Non-Fake News”
Donald Trump is plotting his return to television. The former president’s company Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG) is currently building out a streaming service, which will be home to undoubtedly highbrow broadcasting like “canceled content” and “non-fake news.” Per The Hollywood Reporter, TMTG — which is led by CEO Devin Nunes — recently unveiled their mess of an S-1 filing, which attempts to outline their specific plans: “TMTG+ intends to offer programs including, but not limited to blue collar comedy, canceled shows, Trump-specific programming, faith-based shows, family entertainment, shows that embrace the Second Amendment, and news. TMTG intends to license, produce, and deliver news, sports, and non-woke entertainment content through this platform.” These plans sound ...

Elon Musk Says Donald Trump Will Be Allowed Back on Twitter
Elon Musk says Donald Trump will be welcomed back to Twitter once he takes ownership of the social media platform later this year. Speaking at a Financial Times conference on Tuesday, Musk described Twitter’s decision to permanently ban Trump as “morally bad” and “foolish in the extreme.” “I do think it was not correct to ban Donald Trump. I think that was a mistake,” Musk said. “It alienated a large part of the country, and did not ultimately result in Donald Trump not having a voice.” Advertisement Related Video Instead, Musk argued, by banning Trump, Twitter risked creating a “frankly worse” forum, where disagreeing voices never have an opportunity to engage. In fact, Musk said he will likely lift all permanent bans on Twitter, and instead issue temporary suspensions or hide individual ...
Donald Trump Calls Black NY Attorney General Letitia James “Racist’” Because He Has To Pay Court Fees
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Spencer Platt / Getty In today’s episode of Y’all’s Ex-President Just Be Out Here Saying Sh**, Don’t He? Donald Trump, America’s former commander-in-lies-and-losses, is bigly mad New York Attorney General Letitia James because he’s a big, rust-colored septuagenarian baby. This time, Trumpty-Dumpty is throwing a tantrum because he lost a motion Tuesday seeking to get a New York court to stop fining him $10,000 a day for refusing to hand over subpoenaed document related to an ongoing investigation into his alleged fraudulent business dealings. “After handing over millions of pages of documents, perhaps more than any person or entity has ever given before, there is nothing that can be done to satisfy the racist Attorney General of New York State, failed...
Authors Say Jared Kushner Used Ye FKA Kanye West To Direct Black Voters Away From Biden
HipHopWired Featured Video Jared Kushner rose to infamy as a notable, if inexperienced, member of former President Donald Trump’s political inner circle. A new book makes the claim that Kushner employed the spectacle of Ye FKA Kanye West‘s failed presidential run as an attempt to divert Black voters away from President Joe Biden. In a report from Raw Story, New York Times reporters Alexander Burns and Jonathan Martin write in their joint book This Will Not Pass that Kushner used the Chicago superstar’s name for an ultimately botched political advantage. West, who aligned himself with Trump ahead of his aims to run for president, found himself an unlikely candidate running on a platform that didn’t exactly mirror campaign runs in times past. “The president’s son-in-law possessed limited cam...
Joe Biden Called Trump A Plague, Where Is The Lie?
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: SAUL LOEB / Getty President Joe Biden is doing his best to lead the United States through some tumultuous times, bur it doesn’t mean he can’t let off some joke. During Saturday night’s (April 30), White House Correspondents’ dinner, the VP turned POTUS aimed some hilarious bars at Donald Trump aka the guy who lost. Since Trump is a well-documented, thin-skinned chump (as well as cancellations due to COVID-19), Biden was the first President to address the dinner’s attendees in six years. Biden delivered some self-deprecating, tongue in cheek one-liners, but our fav was the one aimed at the 45th President who still refuses to accept that he took an L. Related Stories “We had a horrible plague followed by two years of Covid,” said Biden. “Just imagine if my ...
Donald Trump Says He Won’t Use Twitter Even if Elon Musk Unbans His Account
In what may be Donald Trump’s most popular action since appearing in Home Alone 2, the former President has pledged that he will not use Twitter, not even if the platform’s new owner Elon Musk unbans his account. As Trump explained to Fox News, the decision does not represent either changing interests or a newfound ability to shut the fuck up. No, after Trump’s permanent ban following the failed January 6th insurrection, the longtime Twitter addict did something rather committal while in the throws of his withdrawal, spending a small fortune on building his own social media platform. This new hangout changed almost nothing about Twitter’s design, except for using the Orwellian name TRUTH Social and instituting new rules preventing users from making fun of Trump. TRUTH Social laun...
