Last week, R. Kelly gave an interview to vlogger Storm Monroe from prison accusing gossip vlogger Tasha K of witness tampering. Kelly accused her of leaking his emails and phone calls ahead of his trial and aggravating his girlfriends by showing them private messages.
In a new phone interview, R. Kelly demands to know why Tasha K and the prison guard who had access to his information have not been punished or convicted of a crime. The prison guard has since retired and no charges have been filed.
In a call to vlogger Storm Monroe from the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Chicago R. Kelly questions why a Bureau of Prisons official was allowed to get away with leaking his emails and phone calls leading to scorned witnesses that lied on him on the witness stand. Kelly adds that there are search warrants from his case against Tasha that went nowhere and he demands to know why.
Kelly also claims Tasha K has links to some of the parents of his former girlfriends and they worked together to bring him down. Watch the interview below.
16-year-old Ashari Hughes collapsed and died of a heart attack while playing flag football for Desert Oasis High School in Las Vegas last week. Health officials are dismissing claims vaccine injury is the cause of death.
Hughes collapsed after suffering a cardiac arrest during a home game against Valley High School. Staff performed CPR until paramedics arrived, but they were unable to save her.
“Staff immediately began providing medical aid and continued until paramedics arrived,” Principal Ian Salzman said in an email sent to students’ families. “It is with a heavy heart that I inform you that the student passed away.”
Ashari was a sophomore at Desert Oasis High School. Her parents, Enttroda and Twayne Hughes, were in the stands when she collapsed.
They told FOX5 that Ashari had been experiencing ongoing heart problems and they were consulting with a cardiologist. A doctor cleared Ashari to play in the game. The family said she began experiencing chest pain during the game and she went to the sideline to take a break when she collapsed.
Registered nurse Aphelia Phifer-Hill rushed onto the field to perform CPR on Ashari, who was her daughter’s teammate.
“Today was the first time ever, in my 26 years of nursing that I had to do CPR on a kid,” she posted on Facebook.
Ashari’s parents described her as “passionate” and “fun loving”. “She loved music, dancing, and being around all the people she loved,” they wrote in a statement. “She called football the real love of her life!”
The family created a GoFundMe page to pay for her funeral expenses.
Ashari’s Hughes mom
Ashari wasn’t an NFL player, but her death touched the hearts of many Her death was compared to Buffalo Bills’ safety Damar Hamlin, who suffered a cardiac arrest during a Monday night football game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Both Ashari and Damar were vaccinated against Covid-19. However, health experts dismissed speculation that Damar’s cardiac arrest was caused by a vaccine injury. According to the office, Hughes died from anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from left coronary sinus of Valsalva. “The National Library of Medicine describes Hughes’ cause of death as a ‘rare congenital abnormality’ that represents less than 3% of coronary anomalies.” Fox 5 News said the journal says the condition can cause such things as “myocardial ischemia, also known as reduced blood flow, arrhythmias, or sudden cardiac death.”
R&B singer Donell Jones is thanking God he’s alive after falling asleep at the wheel and driving his car into a ditch. The singer showed the graphic photos that could have been deadly if the ditch didn’t stop his car.
The ‘Where I wanna be’ singer gave a brief description about his almost fatal night.
I fell asleep while driving yesterday and ended up in a ditch.. I walk away with no injuries but I learned a valuable lesson, That if you’re tired just park the car cause this could’ve been bad…. I know that I am truly protected but I needed this experience…. Thank you God for wrapping your arms around me as you have always done… My love and loyalty is to you..
We’ve seen this tragedy happen over and over again and we’re glad Donell is safe. If you’re feeling tired while sleeping, pull over and rest. Listen to your body.
On Friday, the Food and Drug Administration approved an Alzheimer’s drug shown in clinical trials to slow cognitive decline in patients in the early stages of the illness. The drug, Lecanemab, will be sold under the name Leqembi and is a monoclonal antibody infusion administered every two weeks for patients with mild cognitive impairment.
Alzheimer’s is the seventh-leading cause of death in the U.S., according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.Most drugs approved by the FDA for Alzheimer’s target helping symptoms, not actually slowing the progression of the disease.
In late September the companies that developed the drug, Eisai and Biogen, reported a phase 3 clinical trial of 1,795 patients. Results found that Leqembi slowed the cognitive decline of those who received by 27% after 18 months. The FDA expects to review the phase 3 data “soon.”
In 2021, the FDA approved another Alzheimer’s drug developed by Biogen, called Aduhelm. For a second time, the administration did not seek the advice of its advisory committee. The approval of Leqembi offers hope to patients after continuous failures to find effective treatments. A mid-stage trial was conducted including 856 patients with Alzheimer’s disease.
Side effects of the newly approved drug have been reported according to experts. Due to approval by an accelerated pathway, the early adoption offers a new medication that “fills an unmet medical need.” However, companies are still required to conduct additional clinical trials to confirm the benefits of their drugs and mitigate risk factors that would require removal from the market.
Safety concerns have been raised regarding use of the drug. Data shows a minimum of three deaths can be linked to the medication after the patients experienced brain swelling or brain bleeding. Phase 3 trial data reflects that nearly 12.6 % of patients who received the medication experienced brain swelling, compared with just 1.7% of those in the placebo group. About 17% of patients who received the drug experienced brain bleeding, compared with 9% in the placebo group. Still, the company is confident the benefits offered by the drug are worth facing possible risks.
In a scathing congressional report, detailing the approval of Aduhelm, investigators express that the agency failed to adhere to its own standards and that its approval of Aduhelm was “rife with irregularities.” Public Citizen, an advocacy group, has urged the FDA to postpone its decision on whether to approve Leqembi while the companies finish the additional clinical trials needed for full approval.
The emotional toll placed on patients and family members of those with Alzheimer’s disease is nothing short of heartbreaking. Though Leqembi is not a cure; it aims to slow the progression of the disease by removing clumps of beta-amyloid —long believed by scientists to be one of the main causes of the disease — from the brain.
The biweekly medication is expected to cost around $25,000 annually for a single patient, Ivan Cheung, the U.S. chairman and CEO of Eisai, reported. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services currently limits coverage of drugs that target amyloid in the brain, so uptake of the new medication is likely to be limited at first, Cheung added.

Last year rumors swirled that blogger Tasha K illegally accessed R. Kelly’s prison emails, triggering an FBI investigation. A retired US prisons officer is under a federal investigation for allegedly leaking tons of illegally-accessed information about musician R. Kelly to Tasha K.
Tasha K, posted a number of videos in which she sips wine and shares information to her thousands of followers, quoting verbatim from Kelly’s recorded phone calls, emails and visitor logs, according to a federal search warrant obtained by the Chicago Tribune.
The officer, named in the warrant as Officer A, is accused of illegally accessing Kelly’s private information while he was an inmate at Chicago’s Metropolitan Correctional Center and leaking it to 39 year-old Tasha K, whose real name is Latasha Kebe. She has not yet been charged with any crime.
Now R. Kelly is blaming Tasha for ruining his case by sharing private information to each of his women.
In a jailhouse phone call with blogger Storm Monroe, R. Kelly accuses Tasha of upsetting his girlfriends by leaking his emails and phone calls turning all his women against him right before his trial.
Back in 2017 former R. Kelly victim Jerhonda Pace came forward with her story of being a sex slave since the age of 16. Now Jerhonda shares her New Year’s message for trauma survivors and promotes her new autobiography which is also available for free on her blog.
Pace writes:
Life. I’m starting 2023 off with me reading my autobiography. This one is personal. If you’ve been around for some time, then you’re probably familiar with my story. It was by far one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. Writing this book was an emotional rollercoaster. I had to rip the bandaid off and reveal those family secrets. It’s something that so many of us struggle with in the black community.
My story isn’t just mine. It’s the story of so many black women. The trauma of growing up with drug addicted parents, experiencing childhood sexual abuse, having daddy issues, coming from a single parent household, using government assistance, living in poverty, etc.
For me, it was hell on earth. I’m so proud of how far I’ve come. I didn’t want my children to experience that life. I knew it was up to me to break those generational curses. Thankfully, I was able to. What that looked like for me was cutting ties with my family. I learned that I couldn’t have boundaries with toxic people. It just didn’t work. I tried, but it was overwhelming and mentally draining.
Even though I don’t have a village and my kids don’t have a relationship with my family. I know I made the best decision to end that vicious cycle. If you’d like to read my book, it’s on my blog for free. The link is in my bio.
Watch below as Jerhonda shares details about being trained to sexually please R Kelly by his house mother.
Damar Hamlin, Buffalo Bills safety, suffered a cardiac arrest and collapsed on the field during the first quarter of Monday night’s game between the Bills and Cincinnati Bengals, his team said. It’s not clear what caused his cardiac arrest.
Which leads to the question, what exactly is cardiac arrest? According to Heart.Org, cardiac arrest is the abrupt loss of heart function in a person who may or may not has been diagnosed with heart disease. It can come on suddenly or in the wake of other symptoms. Cardiac arrest is often fatal if appropriate steps aren’t taken immediately. More than 356,000 cardiac arrests occur annually outside a hospital in the U.S.
Cardiac arrest and heart attack are not the same. Heart.Org describes a heart attack as being caused by a blockage that stops blood flow to the heart. A heart attack refers to the death of heart muscle tissue due to the loss of blood supply. It’s a problem with one’s circulation. A heart attack is quite serious and sometimes fatal. Cardiac arrest is caused when the heart’s electrical system malfunctions. The heart stops beating properly. The heart’s pumping function is “arrested” or stopped.
In cardiac arrest, death can result quickly if proper steps aren’t taken immediately. Cardiac arrest may be reversed if CPR is performed and a defibrillator shocks the heart and restores a normal heart rhythm within a few minutes.
The symptoms for both are vastly different as well. Heart attacks often begin with sudden chest pain but can also start slowly with mild pain that lasts several hours. Symptoms of a heart attack can vary, and if you’ve had one heart attack, your symptoms may be different if you experience another one. On the other hand, cardiac arrests can often happen to people who didn’t know they had a heart problem. A person experiencing cardiac arrest may collapse and lose consciousness. They may stop breathing or experience difficulty breathing.
If, when reading this, you feel like you may have experienced or are experiencing one of these symptoms, please do not hesitate to Get medical help immediately. Let’s prioritize our health in the new year.
Sha’Kyra Aughtry has been deemed a hero after saving a elderly stranger in the buffalo blizzard that reached 51 inches.
Aughtry and her boyfriend helped bring Joe White into their home saving his life after he got stuck walking home in the storm. He was crying for help when Aughtry heard him. He had “big ice balls” and gangrene on his hands. The mother of three panned the video camera to show White’s injuries. She explained she had to cut the handles of a shopping bag White was carrying that had become stuck to his hands. She also used wire cutters to cut a ring piercing through his skin. The man had a disability and his condition appeared to be deteriorating so went on Facebook live to ask for assistance. The good Samaritan showed herself feeding white and pleading for help.
“I currently have [an] older 64-year-old white man in my house. I found him yesterday. I heard him screaming for help on my street. I’m looking out the window, when I looked out the window, he was getting blown up and down the street. It was out of control,” Aughtry said in her 15-minute live video.
“He needs medical attention!” Aughtry pleaded. “I’ve had this man since 6:37 in the morning of the 24th.”
Aughtry used a blow dryer to melt ice off of Joe’s hands
Less than an hour after her first live post, Aughtry shared another live video, showing several men she referred to as good Samaritans helping her transport White to the Erie County Medical Center near her home.
“I got some guys just carrying him right now. I just want to show you all that I wasn’t exaggerating. They came in, they plowed out my house. They getting him in [to a waiting truck], I’m right here Joe” Aughtry shared as she rode to the hospital with Joes. White mustered to say ‘I love you’ to Aughtry to which she replied,’I love you too sweetie!’
Strangers have donated over $261K for Aughtry and White. An online fundraiser for Sha’Kyra Aughtry has raised over $168,000 while another fundraiser for Joe White has raised over $94,000 in just three days.
Sha’Kyra Aughtry is an excellent example of pure unadulterated love. Would you do the same?
The CDC announced today that it is implementing a requirement for a negative COVID-19 test or documentation of recovery for air passengers boarding flights to the United States originating from the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the Special Administrative Regions of Hong Kong and Macau. This includes passengers flying directly to the United States from China and passengers flying through popular third-country gateways, including Seoul, Toronto and Vancouver. The requirement aims to prevent the spread of Covid and transmission of any possible new variants.
According to federal health officials, passengers flying to the US must get a test no more than two days before flying and present proof of the negative test to their airline before boarding. Contrary to past regulations the test can either be a PCR or an antigen self-test administered through a telehealth service.
The new rules take effect at 12:01 a.m. ET on January 5. Reports reflect growing concern around China’s lack of transparency in disclosing their surge in cases including the absence of genome sequencing information. Withholding of this information slows detection of new strains of the coronavirus putting public safety at risk.
The execution timeline was selected to give airlines a grace period to fulfill new requirements. New rules are expected to last in accordance with the situation on the ground. In addition to this rule, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is expanding the Traveler-based Genomic Surveillance program to airports in Seattle and Los Angeles.
On Monday, China announced it will end quarantine requirements for international arrivals from January 8, marking a major step toward reopening its borders. The sudden end to China’s stringent health policy has raised eyebrows across the country and sparked the rollout of these restrictions. The gray area surrounding China’s reports and a surge in cases, has also influenced Japan’s decision to test all individuals upon arrival starting December 30th.
