Plies Reveals Why He Believes America Fears Kamala Harris

by

Plies is someone who isn’t shy about speaking on a plethora of topics. From his love of Britney Spears to the vast world of relationship dynamics, the artist does not mince words. Typically, you can find him giving his opinions while sitting in the driver’s seat of his car. However, he can also be found on none other than Twitter, where he sounds off about whatever is interesting to him that day. He does so while capitalizing the first letter of every word, which must be quite cumbersome, but we digress.

Recently, Plies was interested in the political dynamics going on in America right now. Of course, Joe Biden is currently looking at reelection. However, there are some people who are claiming his age is too much of a factor. In the eyes of Plies, however, there is something sinister going on as it pertains to that excuse. He believes that people are more worried about his replacement, Kamala Harris. The artist is a fan of Kamala, although he believes most Americans are actually afraid of her.

Plies Speaks

“The Reason This Age Thing Is Front & Center With Biden Is B/c Who He Appointed As His Successor!” Plies began. “It’s One Of America’s Biggest Fears & That’s A Woman Running This Country. Let Alone One Of Color! It’s Not About Kamala Harris It’s More About Two Things America FEARS! Women & Color.” This is certainly an interesting perspective. Electorally, many fear that Harris would lose in a Presidential election, especially against Donald Trump. Given these poll numbers, one could certainly say Plies is on to something.

The election is over a year away at this point. Although, it is an election that will have huge consequences for our future. That said, people are already worried about it, and understandably so. Let us know what you think of his take, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the music world.

Kim Kardashian Lobbies Joe Biden To Help Prevent Another Armenian Genocide

by

Kim Kardashian has issued a “plea” to President Joe Biden to help prevent another Armenian Genocide. Azerbaijani troops currently occupy at least 19 square miles of internationally recognized Armenian territory. This came after crossing the Armenian border in May 2021. Furthermore, Azerbaijani forces have blockaded the Lachin Corridor, cutting off the Christian Armenians of Artsakh (also known as Nagorno-Karabakh). Kardashian stated her case in a lengthy article co-written for Rolling Stone. As part of this, she has outlined the numerous tactics that the Azerbaijani government has used in order to “make the republic so uninhabitable that people would either die or agree to leave. Meanwhile, supporters of this starvation use coordinated social media campaigns to pretend that a blockade is not taking place.”

Furthermore, Kardashian noted that “Numerous genocide watchdog groups and the United Nations’ own independent Special Rapporteurs — including the first UN Special Advisor on the Prevention of Genocide, Professor Juan Mendez — have been trying to alert the world about these impending atrocities for months. Last month, Luis Moreno Ocampo, the first chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, published his independent report. He concluded that a genocide is already underway because under Article II, (c) of the Genocide Convention, Azerbaijan is “Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction.”

The United States has officially condemned the actions of the Azerbaijani government. However, they have taken very little action beyond that. “The people in Artsakh want to live in peace. Now is the time for true leadership. We need for those who have a meaningful role in these affairs to immediately demand that the Lachin Corridor is opened to stop another genocide. We want to draw more attention to the crisis and appeal to those in our own government who truly care about humanity to intervene. The United States has the ability to mobilize a response. Leaders who are effective and help our people will be remembered for their heroism. Even if well-meaning, the ones who are inert and ineffective will be remembered for allowing a genocide to take place under their watch. The choice is theirs,” Kardashian wrote.

The term “Armenian Genocide” refers to the systematic destruction of the Armenian people and their culture in the midst of WW1. The Ottoman Empire is believed to have killed between 800,000 and 1.5 million Armenians between 1915 and 1917. However, the issue remains contentious – just 34 countries officially recognise the Armenian Genocide. Meanwhile, Turkey has long defended its actions. Hopefully, a celebrity voice like Kardashian can help compel the United States government into taking further action.

Styles P Reveals He Preferred When Trump Was In Office

by

Styles P recently appeared on the Touré Show, where he revealed that he’d rather have Donald Trump in the White House than Joe Biden. The artist says that though he’s not a supporter of Trump, he thinks both politicians are racist, and he’d opt for blatant racism over hidden racism. “I did prefer when Trump was in office over Biden and I can tell you clearly why. Black people paid more attention to what was going on,” he began.

Touré says that more people were paying attention because they felt as though they “were in crisis.” Styles P continues, “We were in crisis now, but I’d rather have you tell me you don’t like me and know you don’t like me and you inform me than me have to guess it or you secretly don’t like me but you telling me you don’t like me. I think the government been doing that for ages.“

Styles P Says He’d “Rather Deal With Clear Racism”

“I’d rather deal with clear racism,” he adds. “Just someone being who they are and letting you know where they come from.” Styles P went on to claim that the “country sucked under both” presidents, and made it clear that he’s not a supporter of Trump. As expected, the performer’s statements managed to stir up some debate in the comments section. Many people are saying that his reasoning doesn’t cut it, and accusing him of being a secret Trump supporter. Several others are also accusing him of suggesting that Black people are ignorant.

This all comes amid Donald Trump’s recent arrest, which has expectedly gotten a ton of attention online. Of course, Trump has capitalized on the situation, selling merch and urging people to donate to his campaign. According to reports, he’s made somewhere around $7.1 million since his arrest. He was released almost immediately after surrendering on a bond of $200K. Keep an eye on HNHH for more updates on politics and Styles P.

Joe Biden On Donald Trump’s Mugshot: “Handsome Guy”

by

Donald Trump turned himself in yesterday at Fulton County Jail in Georgia, facing various RICO charges for his alleged attempt to overthrow the 2020 presidential election. Since he had announced the date and time he would be surrendering, countless social media users eagerly awaited the former president’s mugshot. It was finally unveiled last night, sparking a barrage of memes, edits, and jokes about the image. Various personalities have weighed in on the mugshot, and recently, the current President of the United States Joe Biden even shared his thoughts.

Reporters caught up with Biden today, who was willing to say little about Trump’s arrest. When asked whether or not he had seen the mugshot, he replied, “I did see it on television.” After they urged him to share his opinion on the photo, he simply said, “Handsome guy. Wonderful guy.” It looks like POTUS doesn’t want to say much else about the viral image for now, however, there are plenty of others who have had no problem sharing their own takes.

Joe Biden Admits He Saw Donald Trump’s Mugshot On TV

Plies is known to be fairly vocal about his opinions on the former president on social media, so it was no surprise when he chimed in on the debacle today. “The Look U Give When U Been Yelling ‘Lock Her Up’ & ‘The Biden Crime Family’… But U The B*tch That’s Really The Criminal!!!!” he wrote on Twitter alongside several laughing emojis. He added, “U Can Fool Everybody But God!!!!”

Chief Keef also joined the conversation recently, sharing a fake photo which appears to show Donald Trump holding up a gang sign. “Nah my boy in dat b*tch bangin on dem folks,” the performer joked. “I know whatever deck he on he good in the hood for sure he finna run the prison. That boy finna be eating like a MF all da Blacks finna have my boy back.” Keep an eye on HNHH for more updates on politics.

Boosie Badazz Thanks Kim Kardashian For Bringing Attention To Corey Miller’s Case

by

Boosie Badazz recently took to social media, insisting that Corey Miller AKA C-Murder is innocent and calling for him to be released. For those who don’t know, C-Murder, the younger brother of Master P, was arrested back in 2002 for a crime he claims he didn’t commit. He’s accused of shooting and killing a 16-year-old named Steve Thomas outside of a nightclub in Louisiana. Kim Kardashian has been working on the case for some time. She then used her platform to shed light on his case with a Tweet last week.

In her post, she highlighted a new law recently enacted by the state of Louisiana, which should allow convicted individuals to raise claims of factual evidence. “Mr. Miller has raised such a claim,” Kim wrote, “and like all of his prior post-conviction filings, has been denied relief without even so much as an evidentiary hearing.” Due to her major audience, Kim has managed to get several new sets of eyes on the case in hopes that he’s eventually freed. Boosie Badazz thanked Kim for her efforts on Instagram yesterday (August 8), telling her that she’s “greatly appreciated.”

Boosie Asks Joe Biden, Kamala Harris To Free Corey Miller

“HE REALLY INNOCENT LOUISIANA KNOWS THIS @cmurder NEEDS TO BE RELEASED NOW‼” Boosie also wrote. “[Kamala Harris][Joe Biden] CAN YOU PLEASE FREE HIM,” he continued, “IM GOING TO AT YOU EVERY DAY‼ HE NEEDS HELP [prayer emoji]. YOU CAN CALL THE GOVERNOR N MAKE THIS HAPPEN.” Boosie finished his post, also adding, “HE DID NOT COMMIT THIS CRIME.”

This was far from the first time Boosie has spoken out about Miller’s case. In 2021, he called on Biden and Harris again, asking for him to be released. He claimed that he expected his friend to be pardoned by Trump on his last day in office. “If his name was on Donald Trump’s desk, I feel like he should’ve gotten a pardon before anybody because he’s innocent,” he explained. “He done almost 20, you know. It’s been 20 years, bro. I was in my feelings that day. That’s my partner. I really want to see him come home, but there’s a lot of doors closing on him.”

Joe Rogan Slams Joe Biden, Says There’s “Undeniable Evidence” of “Corruption”

by

Joe Rogan slammed President Joe Biden while discussing politics with author Patrick Bet-David during a recent episode of his podcast. Rogan labeled the current president “corrupt” and described him as a “goof.”

“Whether you like Trump or not, whether you think he’s corrupt or not, that’s a human being. You know what that guy is,” he said. “Joe Biden has been a goof his whole fucking career. He has always been a goof. He has been caught lying so many times, he is so full of shit. There is so much evidence that he is corrupt.”

From there, Rogan claimed that there is “undeniable evidence” of Biden’s “corruption.” In doing so, he cited “the stuff with him and his son.” He further referred to Devon Archer, “who just testified he was business partners with Hunter who talked about all the different things that Joe was involved with.” “It’s fucking undeniable,” Rogan continued, before accusing the mainstream media of ignoring the alleged corruption. “The fact that mainstream news is ignoring this except for right-wing media is fucking cr*zy.” Check out Rogan’s full comments on Biden below.

The discussion with Patrick Bet-David isn’t the first time Rogan has criticized the President for being “corrupt.” Back in June, the podcaster made similar accusations. “All the fucking stuff with his son and the ties to Ukraine and China and the money. The family, they got paid millions of dollars and everyone was trying to obscure it because, ‘Well, better than Trump. Better than Trump,’” he said at the time.

Joe Biden Reviews “Oppenheimer” After Seeing Film During Delaware Vacation

by

President Joe Biden hit up a local theater in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware with the First Lady to catch a public screening of Oppenheimer on August 1. The Bidens are spending the week in the popular vacation destination as part of their official summer getaway. Oppenheimer is the latest from acclaimed director Christopher Nolan. The film tells the story of The Manhattan Project through the lens of lead scientist J. Robert Oppenheimer. The Manhattan Project was the codename for the United States’ development of the first atomic bombs.

Much has been made of the release of Oppenheimer, which came out on the same day as Greta Gerwig’s Barbie. Barbie has absolutely dominated the box office and is expected to surpass $1 billion this week. Meanwhile, Oppenheimer has been able to hold its own. At the time of writing, the film has made over $400 million and made nearly $100 million during its domestic opening. Reportedly, there was a showing of Barbie at the same theater at the same time as the Oppenheimer showing the Bidens attended.

Biden Calls Oppenheimer “Compelling”

In a brief exchange with reporters after the movie, Biden called the film “compelling.” The president kept the impromptu Q&A short. Furthermore, he did not answer any questions about the additional federal indictments former President Donald Trump was handed earlier in the day. However, it’s no surprise that Biden chose Oppenheimer over Barbie. The President has previously expressed a love of historical biopics. In 2005, then-Senator Biden told CBS that his favorite movie was Chariots of Fire. The 1981 Oscar winner follows two British athletes who must choose between athletics and their religion while competing at the 1924 Olympics.

However, the question is now whether Biden will also be taking in Barbie. The ensemble comedy has been widely praised by critics. The film follows “Stereotypical Barbie” (Margot Robbie) as she travels from Barbieland to the real world to seek answers as to why her perfect life is beginning to be a lot less perfect. Furthermore, it currently holds an 88% critics rating and 84% audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Perhaps Biden will catch a private screening at the White House. However, it’s nice to see the President supporting a local theater while on vacation.

Supreme Court Strikes Down Student Loan Forgiveness, Joe Biden Responds

by

The Supreme Court has struck down President Joe Biden’s student loan forgiveness plan with a 6-3 vote. The conservation majority ruled “federal law does not authorize the program to wipe out nearly half-a-trillion dollars in debt.” The loan forgiveness plan would have canceled up to $20,000 in loans for Pell Grant recipients and $10,000 for other borrowers whose individual income is less than $125,000.

In response to the decision, Biden has vowed that “this fight is not over” and is working on other means of providing debt relief. The President elaborated on the situation in a statement on Friday.

“I believe that the Court’s decision to strike down our student debt relief plan is wrong,” Biden said in a statement. “But I will stop at nothing to find other ways to deliver relief to hard-working middle-class families. My Administration will continue to work to bring the promise of higher education to every American.”

“The hypocrisy of Republican elected officials is stunning. They had no problem with billions in pandemic-related loans to businesses – including hundreds of thousands and in some cases millions of dollars for their own businesses. And those loans were forgiven,” he said. “But when it came to providing relief to millions of hard-working Americans, they did everything in their power to stop it.”

Joe Biden On Student Debt Relief

Striking down student loan forgiveness is just the latest of a series of controversial decisions by the Supreme Court. They also struck down affirmative action programs in college admissions and ruled that businesses can refuse service to LGBTQ+ customers on the basis of religious beliefs. Be on the lookout for more updates on Biden’s plan in the coming days.

The Supreme Court Shut Down Joe Biden’s Student Loan Debt Relief Plan And Meek Mill Has A Big Question

For months now, student loan borrowers have been holding onto hope that Joe Biden’s plan to forgive up to $20K in loans per borrower would come to pass. Now, though, we know that it won’t: Today (June 30), the Supreme Court voted 6-3 to overturn the Biden administration’s student loan debt cancellation plan.

Meek Mill had a quick reaction to that, comparing the situation to how much funding the government devotes to other areas. He tweeted, “why are we having a problem with money for education but giving money away for war?? I’ve been seeing this narrative on the news since a child I’ll never understand it!”

Biden is in the same camp as Meek: After the SCOTUS decision was revealed, Biden shared a statement that reads in part, “The hypocrisy of Republican elected officials is stunning. They had no problem with billions in pandemic-related loans to businesses – including hundreds of thousands and in some cases millions of dollars for their own businesses. And those loans were forgiven. But when it came to providing relief to millions of hard-working Americans, they did everything in their power to stop it. […] I believe that the Court’s decision to strike down our student debt relief plan is wrong. But I will stop at nothing to find other ways to deliver relief to hard-working middle-class families.”
