Tim Scott Gets Married

He tied the knot with his fiancée, Mindy Noce, on August 3, 2024. The wedding took place at Seacoast Church in South Carolina. Although I mock Tim Scott and don’t agree with majority of his policies.

Elon Musk is always in the news for his mercurial behavior. According to reports Musk is currently being sued by Don Lemon for the fastest firing on planet earth: Don Lemon’s Show getting Axed on X within 30 seconds. Furthermore, Musk is also under fire for sharing an AI-generated video of presumptive Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris saying ridiculous things. The video went viral and sparked discussions about the role of fake images in influencing potential voters. Yet he still has his sycophants that praise and kiss his ass every chance they get. But anyway, Musk is all over the place he recently introduced an AI chatbot called Grok, which he claims does a better job at responding to questions and queries than its competitors. The Irony: Grok doesn’t hold back when asked to roast Musk, when queried it reply’s Elon Musk is a narcissist prick. Additionally, Musk has been training what he calls “the world’s most powerful AI” at xAI’s new supercomputer facility in Memphis, Tennessee. The “Memphis Supercluster” supposedly features 100,000 liquid-cooled GPUs and aims to achieve significant advancements in AI training by December this year. However, there have been concerns about its impact on the local power grid and infrastructure. Not to mention all the jobs that will be lost for humans in the near and present future as a result… ~Balance Due

Trump’s Invite to NABJ Sparks Debate

Donald Trump’s invitation to address the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) has ignited a heated debate within the organization and sparked online arguments. Traditionally, journalism organizations for people of color invite presidential candidates to speak at their summer gatherings during election years. However, Trump’s acceptance of NABJ’s invitation has raised concerns. At least one high-profile NABJ member stepped down as a convention co-chair due to Trump’s invitation. Others worry that the convention might become a platform for Trump to make false claims or be seen as winning NABJ’s endorsement. Trump will be interviewed at 12 p.m. CDT in Chicago by three reporters: Kadia Goba of Semafor, Rachel Scott of ABC News, and Harris Faulkner of Fox News. Vice President Kamala Harris, the likely Democratic nominee and the first Black woman to hold her office, is not currently scheduled to address the convention. The debate over NABJ’s invite reflects how journalists grapple with how to approach Trump, considering his past demeaning of prominent Black journalists and attacks on the free press. NABJ President Ken Lemon insists that the invitation is “absolutely not an endorsement.” The event provides an opportunity to vet the candidate directly on NABJ’s ground. In this complex landscape, NABJ members are wrestling with the balance between allowing newsmakers to be heard and addressing concerns about Trump’s history with blacks. The organization’s decision underscores the ongoing challenges faced by journalists when engaging with political figures. 🗞️🤔. ~Balance Due

The Killing of Sonya Massey

Sonya Massey the 36-year-old Black woman in her Illinois home this month was shot and killed by a responding officer after she called 911 because she thought there was an intruder in her home, according to officials. The deputy involved in the fatal shooting of Sonya Massey, Sean Grayson, did not follow police protocol. According to reports, Grayson was fired from the force because he ‘did not act as trained or in accordance with police standards’. Additionally, he has been charged with first-degree murder, aggravated battery with a firearm, and official misconduct. It’s a tragic situation, and the case is still under investigation. Sean Grayson, the deputy involved in the fatal shooting had a history of breaches of police protocol and other misconduct. His record includes two DUI charges, one while he was enlisted in the U.S. Army. He worked for six different law enforcement agencies in four years. During his tenure with various departments, he faced complaints and disciplinary actions, including a vehicle chase that violated department policy and allegations of inappropriate behavior and abuse of power. Lastly, the family of Sonya Massey is calling for a probe into the hiring of a sheriff’s deputy charged with the fatally shooting. ~ Balance Due

Childless Cat Lady Controversy

I’m starting to think Maga hillbillies hates animals. First, the Republican Leaders castigate and criticize women with cats. Secondly, Don Jr kills animals as a sport. Not to mention the infamous, Kristi Neom the self-professed Serial Dog Killa.

Biden Drops Out: Chaos In Uncharted Waters.

No Duopoly has ever needed a makeover more than the current two-party American system. Biden drops out and just endorsed, Kamala Harris. So now, Let the Games Begin. My thoughts both the Democrats and the Republicans are out of touch with the main electorate. 70 percent of Americans don’t approve of either candidate for president. Now that percentage is subject to change depending on who becomes the democratic candidate that replaces Biden. I can assume it’s goanna be Kamala, but I don’t know how this complicated situation will evolve. I’ll gauge public sentiment within the next couple of days. But I know this much, everyday working-class Americans’ especially the minorities are starting to inquire more frequently; Why do we continue to support either party, things never get better although the media and politicians state otherwise. Furthermore, why do the parties only seem interested in the plight of the coloreds when votes are needed, once they think they have them then they spew middle class talking points and never address the poor and now both parties have created laws that criminalized the homeless? The customary routine of both parties is outdated (Too Establishment) and the people are waking up to the failed disingenuous strategy. The confluence of the two-party river that always ends up together in the same direction benefiting the same race. People want a viable third option!!! But anyway, I believe Biden did the right thing by dropping out. He’s an establishment politician and it’s time to reinvent what that means. The infrastructure; the ideology, the personnel; The (go along to get along) establishment strategy which rarely changes. Not much difference between the two-parties. And now that Kamala has been crowned…
