Bitter Fingers Turn To Twitter Fingers Then Delete: Milano Responds To Meek Mill’s Public Post About Their Split

Source: Tibrina Hobson / Getty Meek Mill may have decided to go public with his recent breakup with the mother of his child, but Milan Harris decided to take a different approach. On Monday (July 27), Milano took to Instagram to respond to Meek’s since-deleted public posts regarding their decision to end their nearly two-year relationship. In a post simply captioned, “Breonna Taylor,” Milano shuts down any expectation that she is going to publicly address her relationship or the ending of it with a two slide Instagram post. “I’d never address my private life, publicly but I felt the need to say,” the slides read. “Arrest the cops that killed Breonna Taylor.” Milano’s classier announcement comes a few hours after Meek Mill took to social media to announce that the pair had separated. Not gi...

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Roasts GOP Congressman For Half-Baked Apology

Source: Stephanie Keith / Getty Tempers are still hot after congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez received a half-hearted apology from a washed GOP colleague who recently called her a “f*cking b*tch” on the steps of Capitol Hill. The Hill broke the news of the shocking exchange after a reporter witnessed the incident first hand on Monday (July 20). Representative Ted Yoho, Republican of Florida, was angered by AOC’s remarks from a July 9 virtual town hall where she stated the recent spike in crime stems from “economic desperation” caused by the coronavirus pandemic and not from lack of support for police. This angered Yoho to confront the congresswoman and verbally accost her. After public backlash, Yoho took to the House floor on Wednesday to deliver an AOC name-free ...

Woke King, LeBron James Keeps The Focus On Breonna Taylor During 1st Post Game Presser

Source: Jonathan Bachman / Getty When the NBA first announced that it was coming back, some players were worried resumed play would take away the focus from social justice matters. LeBron James and other players are making sure that is not the case. LeBron James returned to NBA action Thursday (Jul.23), and he definitely didn’t look like he was home just chilling. Following limited work that saw the King score 12 points and dish out 5 assists in during a tune-up game against the Dallas Mavericks, James made it very clear that his focus is not just on winning a chip, but calling for justice for Breonna Taylor. Bron demanded that the officers who took Breonna Taylor’s life after executing a no-knock warrant be brought to justice while answering a basketball-related question. “First of all, I...

Kim Kardashian Issues Statement On Kanye West, Details Bipolar Disorder Struggle

Source: Splash / Splash News Kim Kardashian has issued a statement regarding the erratic behavior of her husband Kanye West. Taking to her Instagram Stories, Kardashian detailed that her hands have been tied since Yeezy is a grown man, which makes dealing with his bipolar disorder particularly tough while trying to maintain any semblance of privacy. We’ll save the fact that she at least initially dropped her statement on IG Stories for some other time (but yeh, t it wasn’t the Notes app). “As many of you know, Kanye has bi-polar disorder,” she wrote. “Anyone who has this or has a loved one in their life who does, knows how incredibly complicated and painful it is to understand. I’ve never spoken publicly about how this has affected us at home because I am very protective of our children an...

Harriet Tubman’s Great-Niece Gives Kanye West A Much-Needed History Lesson

Source: SAUL LOEB / Getty Whether or not Kanye West is not taking his meds, one thing is obvious, his lack of knowledge when it comes to African American history. Kanye West’s zany presidential campaign rally he held on Sunday (Jul.19) not only has reportedly landed him in hot water with his wife and her family but with the relatives of the iconic slave abolitionist, Harriet Tubman. During the sh*t show event, West inaccurately claimed that Tubman didn’t free the slaves. “Harriet Tubman never actually freed the slaves, she just had the slaves go work for other white people.” Tina Wyatt, Harriet Tubman’s great-niece, spoke with TMZ and said the rapper was “dead wrong” and pointed out if Tubman didn’t free slaves Kanye would still be on a plantation, wouldn’t be able to spew the nonsense he ...

Kanye’s 8 Wildest Statements During His SC “Presidential” Rally

Source: George Pimentel / Getty Kanye West‘s presidential run is only a few seconds old (relatively) and already it seems to be dead on arrival. Yesterday (July 19) he inexplicably stated that the iconic Harriet Tubman never freed any slaves, and that may not have been the wildest moment. “Well, Harriet Tubman never freed the slaves,” Kanye “matter of factly” said. “She just had the slaves go work for other white people.” Again, right back to the whole “slavery was a choice” f*ckery. With a bulletproof vest on his torso and “2020” etched on his dome piece where a fade should’ve been, Kanye continued to leave the South Carolina crowd speechless as he delved into the weirdest and most asinine campaign rally since, well, Donald Trump’s a few weeks ago. After threatening to walk away from both...
