Breaking News.

 

One very historic news is that the January 6th Committee has voted to subpoena Donald Trump. This is a federal subpoena that Trump must adhere to, or he can face legal consequences. The panel had more than 1 million records from the Secret Service. The Supreme Court refused to back Trump's plan to turn over the retrieved documents to him. The hearing showed new evidence and video that showed how then-President Donald Trump knew that he lost the election, but he still used efforts to overturn the results. That lead to the attack on the U.S. Capitol. There is a video of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, then-Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, and other top officials (who took refuge at Fort McNair, 2 miles from the U.S. Capitol) calling Trump Cabinet members and other officials to try to send resources to stop the insurrection and secure the Capitol. Schumer urgently asked Rosen and other members of the government to immediately send in National Guard troops to stop the terrorist insurrectionists from further taking over the U.S. Capitol building as soon as possible. We know of threats against Mike Pence. Pence supported the certification of Joe Biden's victory which angered Trump and his allies. Trump officials prepared to declare victory regardless of the results. Cassidy Hutchinson said that Trump knew he lost, but promoted the election lie regardless.

There has been the recent Charleston White and T.I. controversy. Charleston White is a lying troll who claims to promote community activism, but his actions are about stereotyping black people, mocking the deaths of people (like DMX, George Floyd, etc.), and even mocking the children of people (like White mocking George Floyd's daughter). I have no respect for Charleston White. T.I. is right to say that White's words on Trayvon Martin definitely crossed the line. Now, T.I. still has the responsibility to educate his son on rational behavior, because many of the actions of his son have no justification at all. Not to mention that White's purpose is to be used by the powers that be to provoke many of us in the community in causing division and chaos (not unity). He admitted he used to pimp women, he to this day cursed the Bible, and Charleston White is known for habitual lying. He said that black culture in America glorifies violence, death, and murder. Obviously, he doesn't know about tons of black Americans then and now fighting for justice, having conflict resolution programs, and building with great music, art, literature, and other things. So, Charleston White (who supports Kanye wearing a WLM T-shirt) is a bigoted, xenophobic, pro-Trump MAGA sellout whose lies are very clear to mention.

Kim Kardashian disrespecting Whitney Houston is not shocking. Kim Kardashian has shown disrespect for black people for a long time. Kardashian's words came from a recently released audio recording. For a long time, Kim has been jealous of black prominent human beings. Her words about Whitney came about in 2010. The breaking news is that Alex Jones must pay almost $1 billion for the lie that he said that Sandy Hook was a hoax. Alex Jones has to face accountability. For years, he made false predictions, and he is not representative of the sincere researchers of truth. Recently, this coward DJ Akademiks screamed and cursed at a young woman. This is obvious emotional abuse from Akademiks. Also, he pushed her which is assault. Later, 2 women tried to jump the woman and Akademiks plus his bodyguards broke it all. He said that "I'm the prize!" to the woman. He is wrong on all levels. Money doesn't define a person's character. You can be super rich and still be fake. We know that in history. Howard Hughes was a wealthy man, but he was a racist extremist in real life. DJ Akademiks is lower than low by calling SZA the b word, supporting Tekashi (who is a racist so-called "rapper"), acts arrogant, and agitating tensions in hip hop culture. People like DJ Vlad, DJ Akademiks, Charleston White, Wack 100 (who is an adulterer who cheated on his wife with a woman named Meeka), and others aren't really role models for anybody of any color. They are the same culture vultures that we must not ally with. 

Michael Cohen's new book said that Trump weaponized the Justice Department to target critics. Cohen was once a Trump supporter. Later, he came about to be one of Trump's biggest critics of our generation. The title of his book is "Revenge: How Donald Trump Weaponized the Department of Justice Against His Critics." We know that Donald Trump is sexist, racist, and xenophobic. Yet, some people believe that Trump is unstable. No, Donald Trump knows exactly what he is doing in trying to ruin democracy as we know it. Cohen went to jail for a time. He pleaded guilty to 8 federal charges in the case and was sentenced to 3 years in prison. By 2019, he was disbarred in New York. The Washington Post reported that the Trump worker told the FBI about moving Mar-a-Lago boxes on Trump's orders too.

I recently found out about my late paternal 4th cousin named Gladys Mae Baines Ivey. She lived from December 2, 1937, to February 18, 2020. She was born on the Eastern Shore of Virginia like tons of my paternal relatives. We are 4th cousins because we descended from George and Esther Perkins (who are my 4th great-grandparents). Her parents are Cleveland Baines (b. 1910) and Rosa May Bailey (1916-2008). Rosa Mae Biley's parents are Noah Bailey and Helen Bailey (b. 1894). Noah Bailey's parents were Cobb Bailey (b. 1864) and Mary Susan Brickhouse (1873-1945). Mary Susan Brickhouse's parents are Benjamine Brickhouse III (b. 1844) and Mary Perkins (b. 1844). Mary Perkins's parents are George Perkins and Esther Perkins. She has many children like Margaret Ann Baines (b. 1953) whose father is Thomas Satchell. She had 2 children with Hughland Edward Ivey (who she married on October 2, 1954) who are Hughland Ivey Jr. (b. 1955) and Lawrence Ivey. She married Horace Lee Smaw Sr. (1938-1991) on October 23, 1967 at Cheriton, Virginia. Their son is Horace Lee Smaw Jr. (b. 1970), and their daughter is Shirley Mae Smaw Hudson (b. 1973). Horace Lee Smaw Jr. had a child with Tari Pleshette Daniel (b. 1970) named Tabitha Helen Smaw (b. 1994). Tabith Helen Smaw (b. 1994) is my 5th cousin, and Ancestry.com confirmed that we are related genetically and genealogically. Now, Horace Lee Smaw Jr. is married to Tammy A. Baines (b. 1969). Gladys Mae Baines Ivey's final husband was William T. Trower. My 5th cousin Shirley Mae Smaw Hudson was born in May 1973, and she married Marvin Terell Hudson on August 10, 1966 at Norfolk, Virginia. Their children are Mariah Hope Hudson (b. 1998) and Rebecca Hudson.
