Chris Brown Shares Edited Clip Of Joe Biden Defending Him

by

Chris Brown has shared an edited video of Joe Biden that shows the President of the United States defending him. In the clip, Biden takes Brown’s side regarding the recent accusation that he didn’t allow Black women into his VIP section at a club he was hosting. Biden demands fans “stop hating on Chris Brown” in the post.

As for the accusations, a woman on TikTok claimed: “We were supposed to go see Chris Brown. We got there and there were thousands of girls lined up there. Like, thousands of girls. And they’re not getting in. We were supposed to be on the VIP guest list.” Another woman added: “They told us ‘No Black girls allowed.’ You’re handpicking these White women.” After the clip went viral, they clarified that it was not Chris Brown who refused to let them in, but the venue. “That video had absolutely nothing to do with Chris Brown,” she explained. “The only reason why his name was mentioned was because we were going to a club where he was hosting at.”

The colorism accusations aren’t the only controversy Brown has dealt with in recent days. He also went back and forth with Kiely Williams of the Cheetah Girls. Williams brought up his history of abuse allegations in response to the announcement that he’s working with Chlöe Bailey on a song that’s releasing later this week. “Let him come out with his own record—so genius, so captivating that it makes us all forget HE BEATS WOMEN. He can’t so he wont. So what does he do?” she wrote. “He slowly creeps back into the mainstream by getting small nods for features on Black Women’s merit. Black women who are more talented, more worthy, but give him the okay.”

Brown fired back in a lengthy statement on social media: “If y’all still hate me for a mistake I made as a 17-year-old, please kiss my whole entire ass. I’m fucking 33. I’m so tired of y’all running wit this narrative. You weird ass n****s are the same ones that tune in every week to see Blueface and Chrisean beat the fuck out each other in front the world. But that’s ok? It’s entertainment? All y’all can suck my d*ck, disrespectfully.”

President Joe Biden Pushed Back Against Those Pesky Concert ‘Junk Fees’ In His State Of The Union Speech

President Joe Biden continued his push back against airlines, concert promoters, and other companies that embed “junk fees” into their service as he expressed his intentions for proposed legislation during last night’s (February 7) State Of The Union address.

Biden’s plan for the Junk Fee Prevention Act would also include extra resort fees, credit card late fees, and any other hidden charges toward customers — no matter what industry.

“For example, we’re making airlines show you the full ticket price upfront and refund your money if your flight is canceled or delayed,” Biden said. “Baggage fees are bad enough — they can’t just treat your child like a piece of luggage. Americans are tired of being played for suckers.”

On February 1, he also tweeted, “You shouldn’t have to pay an extra $50 to sit next to your child on the plane, pay a surprise ‘resort fee’ for a hotel stay, pay $200 to terminate your cable plan, or pay huge service fees to buy concert tickets. It’s time for Congress to pass the Junk Fee Prevention Act.”

Back in October, the White House released a statement that defined junk fees as “mandatory fees that often hide the full price” and “surprise fees that consumers learn about after purchase.” This would include those pesky service fees that companies like Ticketmaster tack on to your ticket at checkout.

“These fees can also create an uneven playing field for businesses, making firms that price in a fair and transparent manner seem more expensive than their rivals,” it read.

This continued discussion comes after months of debate over Ticketmaster’s monopoly and fans having more trouble than ever getting tickets for Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Bruce Springsteen, and other popular acts.

Tyre Nichols: FBI Director Calls Video Of Police Beating “Appalling”

by

What was supposed to be a simple traffic stop resulted in the tragic death of Tyre Nichols. On January 7, Nichols was reportedly pulled over in Memphis for suspicion of reckless driving. Officers claim the 29-year-old fled, and following a chase, police “confronted” the man.

It isn’t clear what occurred during the “confrontation” that police describe, but Nichols was later hospitalized. His injuries were visible as it looked like he was severely beaten, and later, the skateboarding FedEx worker passed away.

USA Today further reported that Nichols did complain that he had shortness of breath. An autopsy also showed he “suffered extensive bleeding caused by a severe beating,” attorneys Ben Crump and Antonio Romanucci said in a joint statement. They represent the Nichols family.

Five officers involved were not only fired, but they were arrested and indicted.

Tadarrius Bean, Demetrius Haley, Justin Smith, Emmitt Martin III, and Desmond Mills Jr. all face charges of second-degree murder. They have also been charged with “aggravated assault – acting in concert, two counts of aggravated kidnapping, two counts of official misconduct and one count of official oppression, court records show.”

The public has called for the bodycam footage from the officers to be released. Officials have already looked at the videos, and several have expressed their ire with the officers’ behavior.

Additionally, FBI Director Chris Wray called the video of the incident “appalling.”

Protests have also already erupted, and Nichols’ family has asked for them to be peaceful. President Biden released a statement co-signing the sentiment.

“Tyre’s family deserves a swift, full, and transparent investigation into his death. As Americans grieve, the Department of Justice conducts its investigation, and state authorities continue their work, I join Tyre’s family in calling for peaceful protest. Outrage is understandable, but violence is never acceptable. Violence is destructive and against the law. It has no place in peaceful protests seeking justice.”

He further stated, “Public trust is the foundation of public safety and there are still too many places in America today where the bonds of trust are frayed or broken. Tyre’s death is a painful reminder that we must do more to ensure that our criminal justice system lives up to the promise of fair and impartial justice, equal treatment, and dignity for all. We also cannot ignore the fact that fatal encounters with law enforcement have disparately impacted Black and Brown people.”

The five officers have reportedly all bonded out of jail. Each is looking at upwards of 60 years in prison if convicted of the second-degree murder charge alone.

Steph Curry Thanks Joe Biden During Warriors Visit

by

Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors won the NBA championship last year. As a result, they get to visit the White House. The team had been waiting for the best opportunity to go, and on Tuesday, that’s what they did.

Of course, the Warriors hadn’t been to the White House in a while as they had a feud with Donald Trump. Overall, the Warriors didn’t like him and the feeling was mutual. However, the team respects Joe Biden a whole lot more, which is why they ultimately went and visited him.

Steph Curry Speaks

During his appearance at the White House, Curry actually got to speak in the Press Gallery. Down below, you can see Curry give a speech to reporters that was quite spirited. In fact, Curry thanked President Joe Biden specifically, noting his efforts that helped bring Brittney Griner home.

Griner was released from a Russian prison after 10 months of incarceration. As many already know, the entire NBA world was working hard to bring her home. Consequently, many throughout the basketball fraternity have shown gratitude towards President Biden and his staff.

Steve Kerr also got to speak while Klay Thompson and Moses Moody spoke to staffers. Overall, it seemed like a pretty cool experience for everyone involved, and there is no doubt that the Warriors are eager to go back someday. Curry even said as much in the clip below. Of course, that would require another title, which is easier said than done.

Let us know what you thought of Curry’s speech, in the comments down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from around the sports world.

Donald Trump Mocks Joe Biden’s Classified Documents: “I Have Info On Everyone!”

by

When 76-year-old Donald Trump was caught keeping classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago residence, President Joe Biden was quick to condemn him. Naturally, when the shoe was on the other foot, the former POTUS came at his successor with the same energy.

As the NY Post post reports, the reality TV star has been sticking to his Truth Social platform lately. His loyalty remains strong, even with the green light from Elon Musk to return to Twitter. In one of his latest posts, the Florida-born entertainer wrote, “The White House just announced that there are no LOGS or information of any kind of visitors to the Wilmington house.”

Additionally, Trump made note of the “flimsy, unlocked, and unsecured, but now very famous garage.” From the sounds of things, the controversial figure wants to prove how much more secure his residence is than Biden. This could potentially help his image now that they’re both soaking in the same pot of hot water.

“Maybe they are smarter than we think! This is one of the seemingly many places where HIGHLY CLASSIFIED documents are stored (in a big pile on the damp floor),” the businessman continued to troll.

Trump’s post ends with, “Mar-a-Lago is a highly secured facility, with Security Cameras all over the place. [It’s] watched over by staff & our great Secret Service. I have INFO on everyone!”

The NY Post notes that the entire incident is an “embarrassment” amongst Democrats. House Oversight Committee Chair Rep. James Comer said his panel is seeking information on who had access to the files.

As for Trump, Jack Smith is working as a second special counsel for the feds to investigate the documents hidden at his Florida resort. This is one of many federal inquiries that The Apprentice alum is facing at this time.

Elsewhere in the news, Joe Rogan addressed all the political drama on a recent episode of his podcast. While chatting with his two guests, the Fear Factor alum speculated that the entire thing could be an inside job to get rid of Biden.

“I don’t know jack shit about politics. But if I had to guess – they’re trying to get rid of him,” the media personality speculated. Read what else The Joe Rogan Experience said here, and check back later for more news updates.

Joe Rogan Says Joe Biden Classified Document Scandal Is A Plot To Get Rid Of POTUS

by

After condemning Donald Trump for the classified documents found at his Mar-a-Lago residence last year, President Joe Biden has found himself in the midst of a similar scandal. Over the weekend, the politician’s lawyers and legal aides found top-secret papers in his Delaware home and DC think tank.

In response to the backlash, the Pennsylvania native told reporters, “People know I take classified documents and classified material seriously. I also said we’re cooperating fully and completely with the Justice Department’s review.”

As Daily Mail reports, Biden’s team believes he’ll be totally clear of any criminality in the matter. Still, the scandal remains a hot topic of discussion in the news cycle – specifically on The Joe Rogan Experience. In his latest episode, the controversial host` speculates that the whole thing could’ve been an inside job.

“If I had to guess – they’re trying to get rid of him,” the Fear Factor alum tells co-hosts and comedians Matt McCusker and Shane Gillis. In response, the former says, “It’s crazy. [Biden is] getting jammed up on like manila folders when he was like kissing 12-year-old girls on camera,” referencing the 80-year-old’s questionable past behaviour.

Rogan keeps the conversation to the issue at hand, saying again, “I don’t know jack shit about politics. But if I had to guess – they’re trying to get rid of him.”

“If all of a sudden they’re – his own aides are sending these – instead of like taking these classified documents, which you have located and go, ‘Well, let’s not do that again’ and f*cking locking them up somewhere,” the host went on.

The trio then joked about the 2020 election scandal regarding “Russian disinformation” and Hunter Biden’s laptop. “I mean everyone said this a million times with like the news. If that was flip-flopped, if it was, you know, Trump’s kid, that would’ve been all over,’” McCusker pointed out.

“It would’ve been like, this is the fate of our democracy…blah, blah, blah,” the guest added. In conclusion, Rogan agreed, “And the media would’ve gone right along with it.”

More Classified Documents Discovered At Joe Biden’s Home

by

President Biden stored more classified documents than we previously thought. According to White House attorney Richard Sauber, authorities unearthed five more items following recent discoveries since November of last year. Moreover, Sauber found the documents while he handed over one of the discovered items to the Department of Justice.

Furthermore, this marks the fourth time Biden’s secret docs came to life, which stem from his days under President Obama. First, during November, authorities found some in his personal office in D.C., and additional items in his Delaware home’s garage in December. Meanwhile, an extra search just a couple of days ago resulted in another unearthed document.

While the first discoveries could’ve been anything, the fourth “bust” started to cause some significant concern. According to TMZ, the DoJ has appointed a special counsel to discuss these documents and their implications. Even though the White House didn’t provide the most clear answer, they maintained that the documents were misplaced with no deeper intent.

“He was surprised that the records were found,” said White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre when asked about them. “He does not know what’s in them. That has not changed.”

Meanwhile, the current Commander-in-Chief has addressed some documents, but not all the discoveries. Moreover, many criticized his administration for not bringing news of these discoveries to light when they were immediately conducted. In fact, the first “bust” occurred before the midterm elections in 2022. However, his legal team stood by their actions and said they were balancing transparency with the integrity of a DoJ probe. They were already looking into the files before they instated this week’s special counsel.

As representatives and Joe Biden himself have said, the nature, content, or motive of storage of these documents is unknown as of writing this article. Given their classified nature, authorities called on the DoJ and National Archives officials to retrieve each batch of items.

Also, these developments have angered Republicans, who see parallels between Biden’s secret stashes and former President Trump’s mishandling of documents. While many are distinguishing Biden’s apparent honest mistake from Trump’s deliberate obfuscation, the difference is harder to identify with each new batch found. Still, Trump has bigger legal fish to fry at the moment, and a whole lot of taxes to pay.

What do you think of these new classified documents allegedly misplaced harmlessly by President Joe Biden? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments down below. Also, as always, check back in with HNHH for updates on the biggest stories in politics and beyond.

“The procedure confirmed that the small lesion was a basal cell carcinoma,” O’Connor wrote about Biden’s surgery on her face. “All cancerous tissue was successfully removed, and the margins were clear of any residual skin cancer cells. We will monitor the area closely as it heals, but do not anticipate any more procedures will be needed.”

Additionally, the third lesion was extracted from “the left side of the First Lady’s chest.”

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy Delivers Speech to Congress, Requests More Help to Combat Russia

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy delivered a speech to Congress at the United States Capitol. Introduced by Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, Zelenskyy provided an update on the battle in Ukraine and thanked America for their support while asking for more assistance.

“I hope my words of respect and gratitude resonate in each American heart,” Zelensky said. He later added, “Against all odds, and doom and gloom scenarios, Ukraine didn’t fall. Ukraine is alive and kicking.”

According to CNN, while the Ukrainian Army is putting up a valiant effort, they are still outmanned. They have fewer weapons than their invading Russian counterparts, openly noting they don’t have enough guns.

Zelenskyy also stated the support of America is necessary to combat “the frontline of tranny” and aim for a win.

“Your money is not charity,” Zelenskyy said. “It’s an investment in the global security and democracy that we handle in the most responsible way.”

Throughout the 300-plus day war, Zelenskyy has been on hand, fighting with his troops. He spoke about visiting Bakhmut in Donbas, which he described as a blood-soaked land with a nonstop sound of guns. He delivered a Ukrainian flag from soldiers in that spot as a gift to Congress.

Zelenskyy also noted that Russia has teamed with Iran, who has offered drones to President Vladimir Putin, citing the union could lead to a strike against other allies.

Before speaking to Congress, Zelenskyy spoke to President Joe Biden at the White House, detailing a union to tackle the war. Following their meeting, both Presidents spoke to Russians, critical of Putin’s efforts. Biden cited the war “could end today if Putin had any dignity at all and did the right thing and just … pulled out. But that’s not gonna happen.”
