Kanye West Continues Long Slide into Fascism by Wearing “White Lives Matter” Shirt

Kanye West wore a “White Lives Matter” sweater at a surprise Yeezy fashion show, Page Six reports, continuing his long and troubling flirtation with fascist politics. The slogan was shocking, if not exactly surprising. West put the Confederate Flag on his merch in 2013. His 2018 Trump White House visit embraced the language of the men’s rights movement. One of his publicists threatened a Georgia election worker in an attempt to overturn the 2020 election on Trump’s behalf. And during his own brief 2020 presidential campaign, he combined authoritarianism and religion, suggesting that abortion was an attempt by white people to commit Black genocide, coming out in support of mandating prayer in schools, and calling vaccines “the mark of the beast.” At this point, we can’t pretend that hi...

PDP Confirms Payment of Millions to NWC Members

Tweet Tweet Share Whatsapp reddit The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has confirmed the payment of money to some members of its National Working Committee (NWC). The party, however, said it was not a bribe to the members. This was made known in a statement by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, on Thursday. The statement is in reaction to the refund of over N120 million by four members of the NWC. PREMIUM TIMES reported how the members in a letter to the national chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, returned different sums ranging from N28 million to N36 million. They said it became necessary to return the money after a backlash from the media accusing them of taking bribes. .ue9d89bca8d238b26f1b9532ceb3265da { padding:0px; margin: 0; padding-top:1em!important; padding-bottom:1em!...

Reno Omokri reveal Peter Obi Greatest Mistake

Tweet Tweet Share Whatsapp reddit He said The greatest mistake Peter Obi made was getting high on app based polls that predict victory for him. In case you do not know what app based means, it simply means the pollsters behind the poll did it on an app, like Twitter or survey monkey. Why does this matter? Because, Nigeria has a disproportionately higher number of Southerners than Northerners on social media. Remember that English is used for most apps, which favours Southerners. That is why Northern Nigerian participation on Facebook was minimal, until Facebook integrated Hausa into its app in September of 2016, after Mark Zuckerberg’s August 2016 visit to Nigeria. Other apps have yet to follow suit. .ud2c6247b7d43f6579b82d9a67ff299d1 { padding:0px; margin: 0; padding-top:1em!important; pa...

Kevin Sorbo Thinks He’d Win an Oscar if He Played an “Islamic Pedophile Terrorist”

Besides 2011’s Soul Surfer and 2014’s God’s Not Dead, Kevin Sorbo hasn’t done much in the way of major Hollywood projects since Hercules: The Legendary Journeys wrapped in 1999, and he says his faith and politics are to blame. The actor, who has jumped down the Trump rabbit hole in recent years, claims being a conservative Christian has hurt his career — but that he’d be a shoo-in for an Oscar if he “played a radical Islamic pedophile terrorist.” “My manager and agent called me in about 10 or 11 years ago and said, ‘We can’t work with you anymore because you’re conservative and a Christian,’ which is like being a double leper, apparently, in Hollywood,” Sorbo said during a recent appearance on the ominously titled program Just the News, Not Noise. “The whole thing in Hollywood is, the...

President Biden Surprises Elton John with National Humanities Medal at White House Concert

President Biden surprised Elton John by bestowing him with the National Humanities Medal during a concert at the White House on Friday. The South Lawn performance was part of A&E Networks and The History Channel’s “A Night When Hope and History Rhyme,” an event celebrating “everyday heroes” like nurses, teachers, and activists. John performed hits like “Tiny Dancer” and “Rocket Man” at the event, but the artist, who created the Elton John AIDS Foundation in 1991, seemed genuinely shocked when President Biden honored his activism instead of just enjoying his music. “Tonight is my great honor, and I mean this sincerely, to present the National Humanities Medal to Sir Elton John,” Biden said, as John, mouth agape and wiping tears from his eyes, clutched his piano. A White House officer ex...
