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 ...

Trump-Appointed Florida Judge Strikes Down Federal Mask Mandate, MAGA Travelers Happy To Spread COVID Freely Again

HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Justin Sullivan / Getty This is another clear-cut case of why elections will always matter. A Donald Trump-appointed Florida judge has done away with the Biden Administrations’ federal mask mandate. As COVID-19 cases are back on the rise due to the BA.2 Omicron variant, US District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle decided the one rule-keeping travelers safe as they traveled during an ongoing pandemic was unlawful. Her reasoning, as to be expected, is completely head a**. According to Kimball, the mask mandate “exceeded the statutory authority of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and because its implementation violated administrative law,” CNN reports.  In her 59-page ruling, she compared the mask mandate to “detention and quarantin...

Tucker Carlson Shamelessly Asks Why President Biden Didn’t Share Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s LSAT Score

HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Kent Nishimura / Getty Tucker Carlson seemingly enjoys nothing more than stirring up some nonsense theory to discredit anything that stands in opposition to his narrow-minded views.
