Did He Do It? New Jersey Governor Chris Christie Accused of Bridge Scandal!

Someone call Olivia Pope! New Jersey's Governor Chris Christie is going to need some help getting out of this scandal!

 

As I was up waiting to watch the encore of last night's new episode of  American Horror Story: Coven (great show by the way), I happened to click through the channels to see Anderson Cooper's show on CNN talking about everyone's favorite bipartisan Governer. However this story may change your mind.

Allegedly Governor Christie's office ordered to close lanes in Fort Lee, NJ causing major traffic jams on the George Washington Bridge, one of the busiest bridges.  It is claimed that the lane closings were payback to the city's democratic mayor's refusal to endorse Christie. As CNN reported, Governor Christie was the "best hope" for Republicans to win the White House in 2016.



Christie claims that he was unaware of his camp being involved in this sticky situation. An investigation has been opened to get to what really happened. However Ft. Lee's Mayor, Mark Sokolich had this to say on Wolf Blitzer's show:

Do you believe him? Is this going to give Hillary Clinton the win for 2016? Comment and share you thoughts below.

First there was Kanye's proposal to Kim Kardashian. Now Future has stepped up to the plate!

This weekend pop and R&B singer Ciara was surprised by her homie/lover/friend rapper Future with an engagement ring for her birthday!

When Dumb and Dumber Get Together: The Republicans Want You to Know They Aren't Budging!

If you voted Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell into office be prepared to wipe the egg off of your face!

I have been sitting on this for a few days debating whether or not to post it, but seeing how some people are arguing back and forth about this government shutdown not ending because of President Obama I thought I would show you this clip thanks to CNN.

Senator Rand Paul decided to have a conversation with fellow Senator Mitch McConnell about the game plan for scheming the nation into believing that they were trying to come up with a solution to the government shutdown quickly.

This is how it went down:

When Ignorance and Racism Make a Baby: Jimmy Kimmel Wants You to Know Obamacare and the Affordable Care Act Are the Same Thing! Boom!

Do you know that Obamacare and the Affordable Care Act are the same thing?

Unfortunately a lot of people don't and are misinformed by these biased media outlets.

Fox News...*coughs*

Because of this we are facing a government shutdown with many people out of work until Congress (who are still getting paid) get themselves together.

Obamacare is actually the nickname of the Affordable Care Act. It seems that Jimmy Kimmel and his team were aware of this and decided to test random folks' knowledge about the healthcare act that has people in such an uproar. They were asked which healthcare act they would rather have and the responses were amazing!

It was bizarre to hear people talk about how they like one over the other especially choosing the ACA over Obamacare the most. The response one woman gave was that Obamacare seems to have "too many holes" in it.

*Shakes head in disbelief*

Check out these outrageous responses:

6 Women, 5 of Them Mothers, Give George Zimmerman His Freedom

On this night, July 13, 2013 was a night of surprise and emotion...

After weeks in court, Florida prosecutors suffered a disappointing loss to the defense team of murderer George Zimmerman after a jury of six females found him NOT GUILTY!



While some are out celebrating, many are at a loss for words that George Zimmerman was acquitted.

Does George Zimmerman and His Followers Have Common Sense?

I have been confused on why people are on George Zimmerman's side for this case. You would think that everyone agrees that he is guilty for obvious reasons. All this money and time wasted towards this man that pursued a young man that was just visiting his father baffles me...

At first it wasn't even about race. It was about common sense. The dispatcher told Zimmerman that he didn't need to follow this kid and he said "Ok." However he pursued this young man with an intent to harrass him and take the law into his own hands. When he started getting his butt kicked he shot him multiple times in the chest. 

N-Words Ain't Stopping Paula Deen Y'all...Some Companies Let Her Go While Others Are Still Standing By the Country Cook

I am predicting boycotts soon...

Last week Food Network decided not to renew Paula Deen's contract after her court deposition revealed that she has used the n-word as well as discussing her slave themed Shirley Temple/Plantation inspired wedding reception for her brother Bubba.


Smithfield Foods is following suit dropping Deen as a spokeswoman for their brand. They sell ham with her face on the packaging.

However some companies are still standing by Paula Deen.

Royal Carribean got so many requests to reserve a spot for their annual "Paula Deen Cruise" that they had to add an extra departure in 2014.

Watch the Pre-Trial for Murderer George Zimmerman Live

It has been over a year since Trayvon Martin was taken away from his family by a "self-appointed" Neighborhood Watch leader George  Zimmerman yet the trial is just beginning to take place. After being denied extra time to prepare for the case (like a year wasn't enough time), the pre-trial has begun today for George Zimmerman with a jury selection.

Oh So Random: Actress Arrested For Allegedly Sending Ricin Letters to the President and New York Mayor to Frame Husband

Tisk. Tisk. Tisk. I don't know how I feel about this situation guys. Yesterday a 35 year old woman was formally charged for assaulting an ABC6 reporter and photographer in Providence, Rhode Island. Melissa Lawrence attacked Abbey Niezgoda and photojournalist Marc Jackson with rocks and her dogs while the two were on a assignment to interview her.

They were there to get a reaction from her after they young man that shot Lawrence's teenage daughter in the back had turned himself in. An altercation erupted during a graduation party hosted at house a few days ago.
