Kingdom come… to Prince Charles’ defense. Members of The Kingdom’s Choir—who performed at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding—are speaking up in defense of Prince Charles as the royal family faces allegations of racism stemming from the Sussexes’ Sunday night pow-wow with Oprah Winfrey. Ms. Karen Gibson, founder and conductor of The Kingdom’s Choir, told TMZ Thursday that it was Prince Charles who invited the African-American group to bless the congregation during Harry and Meg’s nuptials, an invitation she believed to be sincere. She also claims Charles has gone “out of his way” to congratulate them on their success since the event.

Washington—In a highly unusual breach of security last month at the air base that operates the Air Force One presidential aircraft, an apparently aimless intruder went undetected for several hours and walked on and off an airplane on the flight line before his quirky headgear gave him away. He was wearing what an Air Force investigative report released Thursday described as “a bright red or pink cap that partially covered his ears and had distinctive balls on top that looked a little like mouse ears.”(Snip) The inspector general’s report said he had “an extensive arrest record,” but further details were blacked

Senator Chuck Schumer claimed on Thursday that money directed toward New York City does not always make it past the state legislature in Albany in an apparent swipe at Governor Andrew Cuomo. The Senate Majority leader made the comment as he announced a massive COVID vaccine push in NYC which will see him hand $32billion allocated for the shots in the COVID relief bill in December straight to the city's Mayor Bill de Blasio. The New York Senator also promised an injection of an extra $6billion in other federal aid through stimulus checks and funding for the MTA as he praised de Blasio

It's like let me reason through that, what you just said,' Sellers says of the student's performance, who the Black Law Students Asssociation claims is the only black person in the class.

A 39-year-old single mom in Utah with no underlying medical conditions died four days after receiving her second dose of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, according to a report. Kassidi Kurill, a mother of one from Ogden, received the vaccine due to her work as a surgical tech for several plastic surgeons, KUTV reported. “She was absolutely fine with getting it. In fact, she told all of us, ‘It’s fine, you guys should all get it,’” her father, Alfred Hawley, told the outlet. Kurill experienced a sore arm after the first jab of Moderna, but had no other side effects. But things

Left-wing militants have reportedly turned a memorial site for George Floyd in Minneapolis into a “volatile” autonomous zone—where police and even other protesters aren’t welcome. The memorial, called George Floyd Square, popped up in the days after the 46-year-old’s police-involved death on May 25—the catalyst for a global movement against police brutality and racial inequality. But since then, a militant-style group has taken over the blocks-long site, creating a hostile situation for authorities and protesters alike, NewsNation Now reported.(Snip) Griffin said her nephew, Imez Wright, was gunned down within the zone over the weekend

A white Georgetown Law professor belittled black students during a Zoom call with a colleague, saying they “usually” perform “just plain at the bottom” of her classes, according to video posted online this week. The brief clip, posted to Twitter Wednesday, shows an adjunct professor of law identified by the Georgetown Black Law Students Association as Sandra Sellers and another faculty member, David Batson, having what they believed was a private discussion about a class they jointly taught. “I end up having this angst every semester that a lot of my lower ones are blacks,” Sellers said. “Happens almost every semester.

Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) told Breitbart News on Wednesday that Democrat representatives, not Republicans, are being provided Secret Service protection per House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) directives. The federal government built concrete barriers alongside fencing with razor wire surrounding the Capitol following violent riots on January 6, ostensibly to protect against a threat of “domestic terrorism” from conservative supporters of former President Donald Trump. Tuberville contrasted Washington, DC’s, reaction to unrest on January 6 with dozens of violent and destructive leftist-driven riots in large American cities in 2020. “In the last year, we had 230 riots,” Tuberville said.

Washington and Beijing are in talks about the first senior level meeting between the two superpowers since Joe Biden came to office.
A senior US administration official said the meeting will take place in the 'near term' but will not involve the countries' presidents.
Current discussions center around a meeting in Alaska between Secretary of State Antony Blinken and China's top diplomat Yang Jiechi. National security adviser Jake Sullivan and Chinese foreign minister Yang Wi could also take part in the talks.
Any such meeting would be the first such contact since President Joe Biden took office in January.

The banjo player from folk rock group Mumford & Sons announced today he is 'taking time away from the band' to 'examine my blindspots' after a Twitter pile-on for praising a controversial right-wing writer. Winston Marshall, the son of Brexit-supporting millionaire Sir Paul Marshall, was attacked on social media after tweeting support for US journalist Andy Ngo over the weekend, calling him a 'brave man' and hailing his 'important' book Unmasked: Inside Antifa's Radical Plan To Destroy Democracy.(Snip)
A source claimed that Marshall's staunchly right-wing views had been causing 'tension' in the band for some time, and that the decision was made
Comments:
Selling a dirt bike while WHITE should not equate to a death sentence, but the man with a promising future let his guard down. The killer, as is standard, has previous arrests for burglary of inhabited premises and illegal carrying of a firearm, but no convictions as he probably was given "another chance" time and again.
