Department of Justice Argues TikTok Employee Can’t Stop Trump’s ByteDance Ban

The Department of Justice argues a TikTok employee’s fear that the executive order banning transactions with Beijing-based parent ByteDance will keep him from getting paid isn’t enough to warrant a temporary restraining order that would keep the Department of Commerce from enforcing it. President Donald Trump on Aug. 6 issued an order that would bar “any transaction by any person” with ByteDance or any of its subsidiaries. TikTok on Aug. 24 sued, arguing its due process and first amendment rights were being violated. The same day, a technical program manager named Patrick Ryan sued Trump and U.S. Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross Jr. arguing that the vaguely worded ban on transactions between U.S. persons and ByteDance could mean that he can’t get paid.

This time, it’s former The Animals frontman Eric Burdon, who bashed Trump after he used “House of the Rising Sun” during a recent campaign event.

The 92-year-old retired pianist spoke her mind in an interview with The Daily Beast, saying of Trump, “I think he’s just a horrible person.” While Joanne has served as a brand ambassador in the 17 years since her husband’s death, as her son told the New York Times last year, “She has always been her own person.” That includes more active political stances. “Fred tried to stay pretty quiet about politics, basically because his program was for children,” Joanne said. “I’m alone now. I don’t do a prog...

Jim Carrey Pens Striking Political Essay Urging Americans to Vote Out Trump

In a new essay for The Atlantic, Jim Carrey set his silly jokes aside in order to focus on a more pressing matter: the tyranny of Trump. “Untold American lives have been ruined by the presidency of Donald Trump,” he wrote, painting the last four years in very bleak terms. Carrey’s concerns go beyond Trump’s mishandling of the coronavirus pandemic. The comedian, author, and illustrator laid a series of charges on the President’s head, including making the country less safe for its Black citizens and breaking the law in search of re-election. “I’ve spent much of my career trying to reach audiences through humor,” Carrey said, adding, “At this moment, the best anyone can offer is gallows humor. The truth is, we should all be seriously concerned.” Trump’s Republican backers did not escape...

NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo Calls Donald Trump A “Joke” For Defunding Threat To Democratic Cities

Source: Pacific Press / Getty Donald Trump‘s contempt for democratic states that he has no chance of winning in November’s elections is as obvious as his orange tanned peel, but now he’s taking his hatred for blue states to another level as he’s threatening to pull federal funding for places like New York City, Portland and Seattle as they’ve allowed people to protest as the constitution allows them to. According to the New York Daily News, Donald Trump recently signed a memo ordering federal agencies to send reports to the White House budget office detailing funds allotted to cities in an attempt to punish them for letting people protest police brutality and citing the rise in shootings as reasoning for the move. “My Administration will not allow Federal tax dollars to fund cities th...

Pro-Police Facebook Group Calls For Montauk Brewing Company Boycott Over Its Black Lives Matter Support

Source: @MontaukBrewCo / Instagram As America becomes more divided, more tribal and more racist under the watch of the Divider-In-Chief, Donald “Treasonous” Trump, companies supporting either Black Lives Matter or Make America Great Again find themselves subjected to threats, boycotts, and violence depending on your social-political views or simply racist ideology. Earlier this year the murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and other innocent Black men and women sparked Black Lives Matter protests all across the country and at the time Montauk Brewing Company stood in solidarity with the protestors by taking to their IG page and letting everyone know that they supported the movement with “all our hearts.” Seems innocent and righteous enough, but now Gothamist is reporting that a new...
