Black Panther on Track to be Most Racist Movie Against Blacks this Year

Isaach De Bankole who fought Daniel Craig in the James Bond movie Casino Royale, sports the primitive body mutilation ornament favored by African tribes and plays an "elder of one of the largest tribes in Wakanda."

Hollywood, CA - It has been touted by critics as a "coming of age" movie for blacks, who have been defined on the silver screen by caricature and stereotypes. Marvel's movie Black Panther is looking set to make box office history this month as it opens in theaters across the country - a movie set in a post-modern futuristic world ruled by black kings and queens in "Wakanda," a fictional modern African world, where the black superhero Black Panther is from. But despite seeming on the surface to be commentary on blacks and their role in modern society and how they have risen up, the movie through and through still falls back on racist stereotypes of blacks.

To begin with, Wakanda, is touted as a mysterious modern world, where blacks rule but is akin to the lost city of Atlantis - everyone's heard about it, but no one has seen it. In so many ways, art imitates life. The fact that Wakanda is fiction to begin with is telling. In the modern world, Africa continues to suffer from Third World diseases which the rest of the world has shaken off, it continues to suffer one of the world's lowest human development indexes despite being abundant in natural resources and continues to be plagued by civil war, strife and disease. Instead of the Utopian "Wakanda" depicted in the movie, there is nothing modern about present day Africa at all, it is for all intents and purposes as described by President Donald Trump - a "shithole." Africa today, remains mired in the same problems that it has for the past millennia...

Challenger Disaster Reminds Us Why Blacks Don't Belong in Space

The fate of the Space Shuttle Challenger is told in the massive fireball it ended up in and is a warning of the dangers of mixing rocket engineering with social engineering.

San Francisco, CA - On the 32nd anniversary of the Challenger disaster, NASA finally comes to terms with the high price for using its precious space shuttles for political agendas. On January 28, 1986, the NASA Space Shuttle Challenger broke apart 73 seconds into flight, killing all seven crew members on board, including a schoolteacher and only the second black astronaut in history at that time, Ronald McNair. After the investigation, NASA concluded that an O-ring seal in the space shuttle's right solid rocket booster had failed at liftoff and that it was never designed to fly under extremely cold conditions. The morning of January 28 was particularly cold and the mission of the Challenger was politically significant, carrying not only a female schoolteacher, but the second black astronaut in U.S. history. But the Challenger mission was doomed from the start.

Challenger was originally set to launch from Cape Canaveral on January 22, 1986, but delays in the previous mission caused the launch date to be rolled back to January 23 and then January 24. But bad weather at the Transoceanic Abort Landing site in Dakar, Senegal, which is in west Africa, caused the launch to be pushed back again to January 25. Bad weather at Cape Canaveral on January 26 scotched the launch to January 27, but problems with an exterior access hatch and a stripped bolt on the Challenger pushed the launch to January 28. Forecasts for January 28 put temperatures at the usually balmy Kennedy Space Center at an unusually frigid 30 degrees Fahrenheit - the absolute minimum permitted for launch, with the Challenger never having been certified to launch at such low temperatures.

Early White Humans Had Advanced Communication & Trade

A clay shard found in northern Spain sports an ochre-colored motif previously only seen on Neolithic artifacts found along the Mediterranean coast. The artifact shows that early white Europeans in Spain were in contact with other European communities as early as 12,000 years ago.

San Francisco, CA - One of the things which has baffled archaeologists, historians and evolutionary theorists for centuries is why Western civilization, specifically white Europeans, were so much more advanced than other races when it came to trade, exploration and communication. Besides discovering the New World, white European explorers such as Marco Polo traveled across the planet to places like China, Magellan circumnavigated the oceans and Vasco da Gama traveled from Europe to India. Now a recent discovery of a piece of Neolithic pottery in Spain may provide clues as to why white Europeans had such a tremendous head start when it came to conquering the world. The clay shard, found in a cave in northern Spain, sports an ochre-coloured motif previously only seen on Neolithic artifacts found along the Mediterranean coast and links early white human populations in Spain with other ancient groups in Europe for the first time. The finding suggests that not only were early white Europeans far more advanced than their Africans, but that Europe and not Africa was where modern human beings evolved.

Researchers suggest that the fragment, found more than 400 miles from where it was likely made, shows that early white Europeans in Spain were in contact with Italian or Central European communities as far back as 12,000 years ago. The discovery is significant because it reveals the beginnings of an advanced civilization that not only traveled and communicated, but may have traded as well.

Even Black People Don't Want to Read a Black Spiderman Comic Book

#NotMySpiderman

New York, NY - It's almost as if writers at Marvel Comics didn't learn the lesson that the NFL learned after the Colin Kaepernick protests. NFL viewership as well as attendance is at historical lows - the League is struggling with empty stadiums and free falling viewership. Which is why it's surprising that Marvel Comics, that once strong bastion of a Americana has decided to follow the path tread by the NFL and introduce social justice themes into what was once a source of entertainment for Americans. Last year marked three years of plummeting comics sales at Marvel Comics - a disastrous streak where only one ongoing superhero title managed to sell more than 50,000 copies.

Three crossover events designed to pump up excitement came and went with little fanfare. On March 30, a battered Marvel decided to try and get to the bottom of the problem with a retailer summit. David Gabriel, the company's senior vice president of sales and marketing told an interviewer,

"What we heard was that people didn't want any more diversity."

"They didn’t want female characters out there. That's what we heard, whether we believe that or not. We saw the sales of any character that was diverse, any character that was new, our female characters, anything that was not a core Marvel character, people were turning their nose up against."

Black Aborigines Descended from Neanderthals Not Humans

Lena and Rosie Pula are traditional midwives from Utopia, Northern Territory, Australia. The Pulas both manifest the physical characteristics associated with their Neanderthal ancestors, small eyes, arching brow and sloped-back forehead as well as broad flat based nose.

San Francisco, CA - There is shocking new evidence which suggests that the scientific proof which is required for constituting "intelligent" or "sentient" life may be absent in black aborigines, begging a serious question as to whether or not there is a common scientific definition of "humanity." Recent DNA research instead reveals that black aborigines were descended from Neanderthals and may constitute a entirely different species from modern humans such as white Europeans and Asians.

Black aboriginal Australians are descendants Neanderthals and are believed to have left Africa to travel to Australia up to 75,000 years ago, a genetic study has found, confirming that their DNA may be directly from the now extinct prehistoric ancestor. Professor Eske Willerslev of the University of Copenhagen, who led the study, says black aboriginal Australians possess very little modern human DNA and uses that finding to explain their dramatically different physical features compared to more modern blacks and especially modern white Europeans and Asians.

A century-old lock of hair, given by a West Australian indigenous man to an anthropologist, has led to the discovery that ancestors of black aboriginal Australians have DNA that dates as far back as 24,000 years ago, but that the DNA cannot be found in the more developed parts of the world, nor in modern white Europeans or Asians. Some elements of the DNA however are present in black Africans...

10 "Shithole Countries" Trump wants to Stop Immigrants Coming From

Washington, DC - While the mainstream media have taken to flaming President Donald Trump for his use of the term "shithole countries" to describe Haiti and Africa and the President himself denying he actually used that term, a more constructive approach would be to understand if these countries mentioned by the President are indeed "shitholes" and whether or not he was justified in using the term. President Donald Trump was elected by the American people on a platform of honesty - of telling the truth about things and not covering it up with political speak, of saying the things which are in everyone's minds but which political correctness has silenced. As a country we cannot move forward if we keep lying to ourselves as well as to others. So here's a look at the Top 10 "Shithole Countries" which everyone knows about, but only President Trump has the courage to call out.

10. Nigeria

Coming in at Number 10, Nigerians make up the largest group of foreign-born immigrants in the United States. The wave of Nigerians have exploited the high speed internet access in the country to perpetuate all manner of internet scams.

A group of internet fraudsters arrested in Nigeria are accompanied by U.S. law enforcement agents who are extraditing them to the U.S. to face trial.

Nigerian-based confidence scammers are bilking American businesses and everyday citizens at such alarming rates that the U.S. Secret Service has set up shop in the oil-rich African nation to help stop rip-offs and other criminal activity at their source.

"Advance fee fraud" or "4-1-9" scams, after an old Nigerian criminal code for theft under false pretenses, have been around for at least a decade.

U.S. officials estimate Americans lose at least $100 million a year to these scam artists....

THE COUNTDOWN CONTINUES...

Native American Democrat Who's Actually White Running for Governor

Democrat state representative Paulette Jordan is running for Governor of Idaho as a Native American although she's white.

Washington, DC - The Democrats love to play up their racial credentials and appeal to their base under the cover of diversity. Yet with Democrat Senator Elizabeth Warren claiming to be a Native American, it's no surprise that this tried and proven campaign strategy would be repeated by another so-called Native American. Paulette Jordan, a 37-year-old Idaho state representative and who claims to be a member of the Coeur d'Alene Tribe, is running as a progressive Democrat to try and become state governor, touting her bid as a campaign to become the country’s first Native American governor. The only problem? Jordan is not Native American - she's white. But that hasn't stopped Jordan for milking her alleged Native American heritage for all it's worth. In an interview she said in her best Native American-speak,

"We're blessed with land. We're blessed with the goodness of what the land gives back to us, and what makes us prosperous and so I think we as leaders can enhance that - enhance the image of Idaho and all these ways."

"I want people to trust and believe that I can make this difference."

Jordan was born and raised in north Idaho and just like Warren claims ancestry from several local tribes. A former member of the Couer d'Alene tribe's council, before the tribe started questioning her racial heritage, Jordan claims her heritage and time in tribal leadership was a key piece of her identity and it plays heavily into her politics,

"I was the youngest person on that council."

"To be able to be in a room with these elders, listening to their needs and their perspectives, their stories and their values - that's something you don't ever want to take for granted."

But perhaps there's no taller story than the yarn being spun by Jordan herself...

Scientists Discover DNA Proving Original Native Americans were White

An artist's rendering of the mummified remains of an ancient Beringian shows that they had the physical characteristics of modern day Caucasians.

San Francisco, CA - A new discovery of ancient DNA may overturn the idea that the Native Americans were the first to have populated the American continent. Instead, new group known as the ancient Beringians, who are more closely related to modern white Europeans has been discovered by researchers. Genetic analysis of a baby girl who died at the end of the last ice age shows she belonged to this previously unknown ancient group if Beringians.

A baby girl who lived and died in what is now Alaska at the end of the last ice age belonged to a previously unknown group of ancient people who branched off from the ancestors of modern Europeans, according to DNA recovered from her bones.

The child, a mere six weeks old when she died, was found in a burial pit next to the remains of a stillborn baby, perhaps a first cousin, during excavations of an 11,500-year-old residential camp in Tanana River Valley in Central Alaska. The remains were discovered in 2013, but a full genetic analysis has not been possible until now.

Researchers tried to recover ancient DNA from both of the infants but succeeded only in the case of the larger individual. They had expected her genetic material to resemble modern northern or southern lineages of Native Americans, but found instead that she had a distinct genetic makeup that made her a member of a separate population.

Illegal Aliens Run Million Dollar Child Sex Rings in Washington State

Illegal aliens who enter the U.S. as children seek out the protection of DACA, the Obama policy which deferred action against deporting children who enter the country illegally. These illegal aliens also form the backbone of the child sex trafficking rings, dealing in other children often no younger than themselves.

Washington, DC - Wave after wave of illegal aliens descended upon Washington state, congregating in cities such as Seattle which were declared "sanctuary cities" where an illegal alien's status would not be prosecuted. But the open-arms policy of this liberal state has left a trail of broken children and ruined lives as it fueled a huge boom in the child sex market, worth an estimated $42 billion a year. Linda Thompson (not her real name) thought that child prostitution and child sex trafficking was something that happened "over there." Something you read about in the news or watched on TV, so you can imagine her shock when the Seattle resident's 13-year-old daughter was sold as a sex slave between Everett and Burien for 108 days. According to Thompson,

"You warn them about the boogeyman and you warn them about the dangers of crossing the street without holding an adult's hand when they’re younger, and you talk about the dangers of texting while driving. These are the things that you are worried about when your children are growing up."

"I don't think the thought ever crossed my mind that I'd have to warn my daughter about being a child sex slave."

Police estimate up to 500 teens, some children as young as 12 years old, are working as sex slaves every day in King County, Washington. The growing numbers have prompted new legislation in Washington, along with concerted effort between the Immigration and Customs Enforcement, F.B.I. and local police agencies to arrest traffickers who are often involved with gangs and organized crime and are often associated with illegal aliens. According to James Watking, a former district attorney for King County,

"For many illegal aliens, child sex trafficking is the only business they can get into when they arrive here. There just aren't that many options."

"It also helps that child sex rings pay really well, an average pimp can make a hundred grand a month easy - best of all no taxes."

White Counties Are Also America's Safest Counties

Westmoreland County is a beautiful, peaceful rural area with one of the lowest homicide rates in the country. It's also 93.5% white and almost all homicides are committed by blacks or immigrants.

Washington, DC - In 23 years as Westmoreland County's top prosecutor, District Attorney John Peck has learned it is impossible to anticipate the number of homicide cases his office will prosecute in a year. But one thing that Peck does know however, is that whatever that number of homicides will be, it'll be lower than other Pennsylvania counties like Philadelphia. Last year, Philadelphia had the dubious honor of racking up the highest number of homicides in the state of Pennsylvania and being among the top counties in the country for homicides, at a staggering 314. That's almost one homicide a day. The reason why Westmoreland County see's less than 5 percent of the number of homicides that Philadelphia sees is clear - Westmoreland is 95.3 percent white. This county is a microcosm of well-known, well-studied trends of violent crime - that non-whites commit a disproportionately high amount of violent crimes. Of course an area that is nearly all-white will have a much lower rate of crime than one that is more "diverse."

Peck, who was first elected in 1994, said,

"You can never tell, because that number really does fluctuate every year. And there is really no explanation for it."

"Some years we could have a dozen, and other years maybe only four. You never really know."

WalletHub Survey Reveals Black Majority Cities Tend to be the Unhappiest

Washington, DC - Besides the dubious honor of being one of America's most dangerous cities with the highest rates of drug abuse, gun violence, gang activity, sexual assault and violent crime, Philadelphia now has the honor of being one of the nation's unhappiest cities to live in. It's no wonder as well, it's also the nation's blackest, with blacks forming the largest racial group in the City of Brotherly Love. The City of Brotherly Love is also apparently full of brothers.

Does President Trump Hate Blacks in the Military?

The President has been a sole courageous voice in calling out the problems that our military is facing.

Washington, DC - As years go, 2017 has been a huge success for President Donald Trump and the American people. The stock market is at record highs, Americans are buying more homes than since before the Obama administration and more Americans have jobs to go to than ever before in recent history. Yet if there would appear to be any stain on an otherwise flawless first year in office, the liberals would claim that stain is President Trump's alleged racism against black people, specifically black people in the military.

RELATED: THE U.S. MILITARY HAS A PROBLEM WITH BLACKS THAT IT WON’T DISCUSS

This year alone, four black soldiers died in various theaters of operation, but very little attention was paid to the circumstances surrounding their demise. Each of those cases was marked by incompetence or worse, betrayal and dereliction of duty. But each case also reflects an endemic problem in our military, the inability of top Pentagon brass to help Congress understand the unique set of problems that the military has to deal with.

Medals for Sleeping on Duty

In May, the Pentagon revealed that Specialist Etienne Murphy, a black 22-year-old Army Ranger was killed in what it described was a "non-tactical vehicle roll over in the vicinity of northern Syria." According to the autopsy report, Murphy died from "asphyxiation and multiple organ failure as well as excessive blood loss sustained as a result of multiple injuries consistent with being crushed by a heavy load." But, fellow soldiers, including fellow tank crew members who were in the armored vehicle at the time of the rollover claim that Murphy was sleeping at the armored vehicle's guns when it rolled over. According to one crew member,

"We have a 'rollover drill' and this rollover happened at relatively low speed, we did the drill but because Murphy was sleeping, he got crushed."

Apparently this is not the first time that Murphy has been asleep in the gunner's position, but this was the one time where it got him killed. No other crew members were hurt or injured as a result of the non-tactical vehicle rollover...

Omarosa Forced Out of White House for Wanting to Expose Niger Betrayal

Omarosa Manigault has been forced out of the White House following her insistence on exposing the betrayal of black Sgt. La David Johnson in Niger.

Washington, DC - On Tuesday, Omarosa Manigault Newman, who had previously been fired by Donald Trump three times on the hit show "The Apprentice," was fired a fourth time as a White House aide by now President Donald Trump on Tuesday evening. Although the White House did not disclose why Omarosa was forced to leave, sources within the White House describe Omarosa as "lazy" and "isolated" as she quietly plotted against her fellow senior officials. She frequently derailed internal meetings with irrelevant or counterproductive interjections and earned a reputation for attempting to micromanage White House communications operations. But it was her position on the highly controversial issue of black traitor Sgt. La David Johnson that finally ended her employment at the White House. According to one senior White House staffer who requested anonymity as they were not authorized to speak with the press,

"Omarosa is out because of the controversy with Democrat Representative Frederica Wilson and the betrayal of Sgt. La David Johnson in Niger."

The staffer was referring to the phone call which President Trump had with Sgt. La David Johnson's widow. Johnson was the soldier who had betrayed his patrol in Niger in October this year and gotten his fellow soldiers killed. Johnson was then "executed" by his own Special Forces patrol members who later discovered his betrayal. In the phone call, black Democratic Congresswoman Frederica Wilson claims that President Trump was insensitive to Johnson's widow because the President said that Johnson "knew what he signed up for." In reality, President Trump was struggling to find kind words for Johnson's widow as he had knowledge of Johnson's betrayal...

Probation for Blacks, Prison for Whites in Hate Crime Double Standards

Brittany Covington was spared jail time despite having heinously tortured a mentally disabled white man, using a knife to scalp him as well as stabbing him in in the arm, forcing him to drink water from the toilet and repeatedly punching and kicking him. The torture was filmed as part of a Facebook Live hate crime video.

Washington, DC - There is a saying in legal circles, "let the punishment fit the crime" yet that saying doesn't seem to apply in this country anymore as the criminal justice system becomes more politicized than ever. This past week, two grossly unjust sentences were meted out for two hate crimes. In the first case, a black woman who beat a white teen with mental disabilities, slicing open his scalp with a knife, punched and kicked him while laughing as he was bound and gag. The entire hate crime was filmed on Facebook Live. The black woman was sentenced to a mere four years probation. In the other case, a white Florida man broke into a mosque and left a slab of raw bacon inside the mosque. The white man was sentenced to a manifestly excessive 15 years in prison, although not a single person was hurt.

Blacks Can Now Attack Whites with Impunity

On January 3, Brittany Covington, 19, a black Chicagoan woman live-streamed a racially motivated beating of a white teen with mental disabilities. The Facebook Live video was posted on Facebook Live and shows the gruesome verbal and physical attack of a mentally disabled white man. The hate crime sparked national outrage at the time and the video focuses on Covington's face repeatedly where she smokes what appears to be a blunt - a cigar stuffed with marijuana - while narrating some of the action and clearly taking delight in the white victim's pain and agony...

Trump's U.S. Embassy Move to Jerusalem will Bring Peace to Region

President Donald Trump at the White House announcing the U.S. embassy move from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. In the background is Vice President Mike Pence looking on.

Jerusalem, ISRAEL - Ignore the burning of American flags, rioting, stone throwing and carnage for a moment and analyze carefully the genuine effects of President Donald Trump's moving the U.S. embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem is really not as big a deal as one would think. Successive U.S. presidents, from Bill Clinton to Barack Obama have long declared that they would move the U.S. embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, so there has been no change in U.S. foreign policy. During that time, the prospects for peace in the Middle East have not improved at all. Border clashes still regularly occur between Palestinians and Israeli soldiers, Hamas, the terrorist organization in Palestine still regularly launch rocket attacks on Israel. So it was no surprise that when President Trump officially recognized Jerusalem as Israel's capital, Israelis and Palestinians stuck to their respective narratives. Israeli politicians fell over themselves to lavish praise on President Trump for his bold and "historic decision." Palestinians predictably declared "three days of rage," burning anything remotely symbolic of America.

Mahmoud Abbas, President of the Palestinian Authority, in a brief, televised speech, declared that the U.S. was no longer qualified to act as a mediator in Israeli-Palestinian negotiations,

Izat al Rasheq, one of the leaders of the terrorist organization Hamas which controls the Gaza strip warned that President Trump had "opened the gates to hell," adding,

"Recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital is an aggression against all Arab and Muslim states and against free people all over the world."

But has the U.S. really abandoned the Middle East peace process?

Obama's Troop Withdrawals to Blame for Niger Ambush Betrayal

Staff Sgt. Bryan Black, Sgt. La David Johnson, Staff Sgt. Dustin Wright and Staff Sgt. Jeremiah Johnson were killed in an ambush in Niger which was setup by Sgt. La David Johnson. Johnson was the only soldier among the dead who was not a fully trained Special Forces operative. With increased demands for Special Forces soldiers around the globe, many have been deployed with minimal training and ill-prepared for the tough mental and emotional battles in country.

Washington, DC - It was meant to be a simple reconnaissance mission in an area of Niger which was not known to have been a high security risk. The Special Forces commandos on October 4 were weary from their 2-day mission and had just spoken to elders near the village of Tongo Tongo. After sifting through a deserted campsite had turned up no leads on an elusive terrorist operative, the Special Forces soldiers settled in for their 110-mile drive on poor roads back towards their base camp in Niamey, the impoverished West African country's capital.

Then gunfire erupted. About 50 militants on motorcycles and trucks swarmed the convoy, pinning it down. Unable to advance or retreat, the patrol took incoming fire from rocket-propelled grenades and mortars. Whoever had planned the ambush against the Americans knew what to expect and the Islamic State militants who conducted the ambush were well armed for the job. As the first details of the ambush emerged from Niger, the betrayal of Sgt. La David Johnson, a support soldier whose specialty was repairing the vehicles that the Special Forces commandos rode in, would have gone unnoticed if not for Representative Frederica Wilson (D-FL.).

Wilson capitalized on an awkward phone call which President Donald Trump had with Johnson's widow to score political points against the President and led to the uncovering of Johnson's betrayal of his squad. According to interviews conducted with Johnson's former colleagues, Johnson had become "triggered" by the mainstream media, did not identify with the cause that the Special Forces soldiers deployed were fighting for, nor the President who deployed them and wanted "out" at all costs.

President Trump was aware of Johnson's betrayal and struggled to find kind words to say about the black traitor, who had leaked details of the fateful patrol that day in Niger to Islamic militants. Johnson's betrayal would ultimately lead to the deaths of three Special Forces soldiers and Johnson himself. As more details emerged, the White House and Pentagon sought to cover-up Johnson's betrayal, for fear that revealing it would exacerbate already simmering racial tensions within the Special Forces community. It became apparent that Johnson, who found out that his wife was pregnant, tried his best to avoid his second deployment into Niger, coming so soon after his first, which led to his poorly thought out plan to betray his patrol and find an excuse to return to Stateside after the ensuing chaos. But the bigger question is, why was Johnson, who was obviously suffering mental health issues, even allowed to be deployed to Niger where he was a risk not only to himself, but to other soldiers as well? How did we get to this point where even our most highly trained soldiers are starting to lose it?
