Who’s The Mack?: Ice Cube Addresses Social Media Absence Following Backlash
Source: Bernard Smalls / @PhotosByBeanz Ice Cube has been noticeably silent for the past few weeks following his social media dragging for meeting with sitting President, Donald Trump, but he’s back and explaining why. On Monday (Nov 30), the west coast legend took to Twitter to share with fans what he’s been working on during his sabbatical, noting that his reason for stepping back was to drown out the “noise” and “poison” with critics who felt that his approach was incorrect. “I know a lot of people been wondering where I’ve been,” Ice Cube said. “I was real active before the election, talking about what’s needed, specifically from the Black community. About 10 days or two weeks before the election, I pushed back all the way pretty much until now because I just felt there was a lot of no...
Donald Trump’s bias hawk FCC nominee one step closer to confirmation
On Wednesday, the Senate Commerce Committee voted to advance the nomination of Nathan Simington, a Republican in favor of greater government oversight of speech on the internet, to the Federal Communications Commission. Simington’s nomination now awaits a floor vote for final approval. President Donald Trump nominated Simington to be the next Republican FCC Commissioner in September. If approved, Simington would fill Republican Commissioner Mike O’Reilly’s seat, leaving the agency at 2-2 deadlock when Chairman Ajit Pai steps down on January 20th. Without a Democratic majority at the FCC, the Biden administration will likely have difficulties rolling through any major policy measures until another nominee is vetted and approved. In August, Trump abruptly withdrew O’Reilly’s renomination for...

Joe Biden picks diverse team of top economic advisers
President-elect Joe Biden named former Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen as his Treasury secretary nominee on Monday, and named three women to other top economic posts, setting the stage for a more diverse White House. While Biden’s transition to the presidency on Jan. 20 appeared to be hitting its stride, he himself was hobbling after fracturing his foot while playing with his dog on Saturday and will wear a protective boot for several weeks, his doctors said. The incoming administration has been hampered for weeks by Republican President Donald Trump, who has refused to concede to Biden, a Democrat. Trump has said without providing evidence that the Nov. 3 vote was fraudulent, claims that state and federal election officials have dismissed. Biden named leading members of an economic tea...
US sanctions Chinese, Russian firms over Iran dealings
The US on Friday announced economic sanctions on Chinese and Russian companies that Washington said had supported the development of Iran’s missile program. The four firms, accused of “transferring sensitive technology and items to Iran’s missile program,” will be subject to restrictions on US government aid and on their exports for two years, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in a statement. The sanctions, imposed Wednesday, were against two Chinese-based companies, Chengdu Best New Materials and Zibo Elim Trade, as well as Russia-based Nilco Group and Joint Stock Company Elecon. “We will continue to work to impede Iran’s missile development efforts and use our sanctions authorities to spotlight the foreign suppliers, such as these entities in the PRC (China) and Russia, that provide mi...
Donald Trump Retweets Bizarre Randy Quaid Posts to Bolster Election Hoax Claims
Between Rudy Giuliani’s cartoonish press conferences and vast swaths of the Republican apparatus urging Donald Trump to concede the election to Joe Biden, our president’s #StopTheSteal campaign has been, as many of us expected, a farcical failure. Yesterday, Trump so much as admitted defeat by authorizing his team to begin the formal transition to Biden’s administration, but as many of us also expected, Trump will never rhetorically concede defeat, and that delusional stubbornness has forced him to reach deep into the bench of supporters who endorse his detached worldview. Enter Randy Quaid. The 70-year-old actor is best known for his character Cousin Eddie in the National Lampoon’s Vacation franchise, but he himself has become the target of some national lampooning in ...

Georgia Confirms Joe Biden Won The State’s Electoral Votes, Because Duh
Source: W.Wade/WENN / WENN As Donald Trump resumes to conspiracy theory spewing and does everything within his presidential power to steal the 2020 election, Joe Biden’s victory continues to be proven substantial as the great state of Georgia has confirmed what we already knew, Biden won. After unnecessarily auditing and recounting votes in Georgia to appease Trump and his enabling allies, Deadline is reporting that Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger (R), announced that the recount is complete and Joseph R. Biden is indeed the winner of the Peach state. Though the recount did award Donald Trump an extra 486 votes, it was not enough to catch Joe Biden’s lead of more than 12,000 and ultimately led to Biden winning by 12,284 votes. The audit showed that the highest erro...
