President Donald Trump once again lit a firestorm on Truth Social, announcing his renewed push for a 100% tariff on all foreign films entering the U.S. market. Trump doubled down on a policy he first floated in May 2025, framing it as a way to stop the “theft” of Hollywood jobs. But beneath the fiery rhetoric lies a complicated web of global economics, legal roadblocks, and cultural politics that could reshape how Americans watch movies. Why Now? The Global Box Office Thre

California is about to host one of the biggest cultural spectacles in the world—and it’s already making history. Governor Gavin Newsom couldn’t hide his excitement when he posted about Super Bowl LX landing in Santa Clara in 2026. But what’s got the internet buzzing isn’t just the game—it’s the halftime show. For the first time ever, a solo Latin artist will headline the Super Bowl halftime stage. And who better than Bad Bunny, the Puerto Rican reggaeton and trap superstar w

On September 27, 2025, a towering 10-foot bronze statue of Tina Turner was unveiled in Brownsville, Tennessee, just miles away from her childhood hometown of Nutbush. For a community that raised one of the greatest entertainers the world has ever seen, the tribute is monumental—literally. The statue was made possible with partial funding from Ford Motor Company’s Blue Oval City project, which donated $150,000 toward its creation. That kind of corporate investment in cultur

But let’s be real — this isn’t just about money. It’s about power, politics, and prestige, with a cast of players straight out of a global drama: Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF), private equity giant Silver Lake, and Jared Kushner’s Affinity Partners. Why Saudi Arabia Wants EA: Vision 2030 and the Gaming Gold Rush Saudi Arabia’s role in this blockbuster deal is no surprise. Through its Public Investment Fund (PIF), the kingdom has been on a shopping spree, pouri

Southport, North Carolina — a sleepy coastal town known for its scenic waterfront and laid-back Southern charm — was shattered this weekend by a brazen and highly premeditated mass shooting that left three people dead and several more wounded. What should’ve been a relaxing Saturday night by the water turned into a scene of chaos, heartbreak, and unanswered questions. According to officials, the shooter pulled up on a boat to the American Fish Company, a popular bar along

Butter has always been a symbol of comfort and tradition. From flaky croissants and golden biscuits to sizzling pans of Sunday morning breakfast, butter is woven into the culinary fabric of our lives. Yet, in a quiet Chicago suburb, a company called Savor is rewriting that story. With the backing of Bill Gates and his Breakthrough Energy Ventures fund, this startup is building what they call “carbon butter” — a dairy-like fat made not from cows or crops, but from air. This

Far-right activist Laura Loomer is back in the headlines, and not for anything positive. On September 2025, Loomer unleashed a series of hateful posts on X (formerly Twitter), directly targeting Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas. The reason? Crockett’s refusal to support a U.S. House resolution honoring the late Charlie Kirk, founder of the conservative youth group Turning Point USA. But instead of sticking to politics, Loomer went low—very low.

When Solange Knowles moves, it’s never just music. It’s art, it’s statement, it’s legacy. And now, she’s stepping into the world of archives and preservation with a project that has the potential to change how we access Black history, literature, and creativity. In September 2025, Solange officially launched the Saint Heron Community Library — a free, honor-based library and digital archive dedicated to rare, out-of-print, and first-edition works by Black and Brown authors,

Chicago is once again at the center of a heated debate — and no, it’s not about deep-dish pizza this time. The Windy City is facing a $1.15 billion budget deficit, one of the largest in its history, and city leaders are scrambling to figure out what to cut, who to spare, and how to keep the city afloat. At the heart of the controversy? A proposed $98 million reduction in the Chicago Police Department’s budget, even as the force struggles with nearly 1,000 vacant officer posit

Tennessee State University (TSU), a proud HBCU in Nashville, became the latest flashpoint in America’s culture wars this week when an unpermitted group showed up on campus in bright red MAGA hats. The group set up what they called a “debate table,” plastered with signs blasting diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs and warning against immigration. It was less about discussion, more about disruption—and it worked.

ICE Dallas Field Office, marking yet another episode in the disturbing trend of violence targeting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facilities. The Dallas Incident happened this morning , began with a routine unload of detainees at the ICE facility in Dallas, Texas. However, this ordinary procedure was shattered by gunfire from a sniper positioned on a nearby rooftop. The assailant opened fire, resulting in the deaths of two detainees and critically wounding a

Diddy case gets stranger by the day—believe me, I’m not exaggerating. We’ve already seen 96 character reference letters filed for Sean “Diddy” Combs as he awaits sentencing in United States v. Sean Combs (1:24-cr-00542-AS). But one that caught my eye—and had me clutching my wig—came from none other than Kim Etheredge, the founder of the popular haircare brand Mixed Chicks. Yes, sis, the leave-in conditioner people.

Google dropped a 28-page letter to the House Judiciary Committee admitting something critics have suspected for years—that the Biden administration pressured YouTube to remove COVID-19 content. And not only that, but this admission has sparked a major policy shift: creators previously banned for COVID-19 or even 2020 election content could soon be reinstated. Let’s break it all down—the receipts, the research, the culture wars, and why this moment feels like a turning point

This afternoon in Augusta, Georgia, shoppers expected nothing more than a casual day at the mall. Instead, chaos erupted—reminding us once again that even our most familiar community spaces can suddenly turn unsafe. At 1:36 PM CDT, news broke on social media about an active shooter situation inside Augusta Mall. What followed was a wave of panic, swift police response, and a community left shaken.

The internet is shaking right now, and I mean shaking. Rising star D4vd—real name David Anthony Burke—is smack dab in the middle of a homicide investigation that reads more like a Netflix crime doc than real life. As of this afternoon, the details are still coming out, but let me break it down for y’all because this story has everything: a celebrity on the rise, a gruesome discovery, and the messy mix of fame, crime, and social media hype.

Trump suggested that using the everyday over-the-counter pain reliever while pregnant is dangerous and could be linked to autism. But here’s the thing: he presented zero new evidence, and health experts were quick to remind the public that no conclusive scientific study has found Tylenol causes autism.

When I saw the headline about MacKenzie Scott donating $70 million to HBCUs, I had to clutch my coffee cup, y’all. Like—wow. This isn’t just a random big check, this is a move that could literally shift futures.

When the United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres took the stage at the 80th UN General Assembly in New York this week, he didn’t come with sugar-coated diplomacy. He hit the world with a gut-check: “Humanity has entered an age of reckless disruption and relentless human suffering.”

Chile, the Sean “Diddy” Combs saga just keeps unfolding like a never-ending drama series. And the latest episode? A 133-page sentencing appendix dropped on September 22, 2025, that has everybody talking. Journalist Meghann Cuniff (aka “Trial Queen” on X) revealed that 71 character reference letters have been submitted on Diddy’s behalf as he faces sentencing next month. But here’s the gag: the streets—and the timeline—ain’t buying it. Let’s break it all the way down.
