It can no doubt be frustrating when you’re not happy with your fast food order, but taking out that anger by trashing the restaurant is not a productive way to deal with your emotions — and it’ll also get you in trouble with the police.
A Florida woman was arrested on Saturday night after police said she stormed into a Wendy’s restaurant angry over the food she’d just received in the drive-thru line, The Smoking Gun reports. According to the arrest report, the woman had argued with a Wendy’s manager while she was parked outside because she was “dissatisfied with the food ordered.”
The manager closed the drive-thru window during the alleged argument, at which point police say the woman got out of her car and “began verbally engaging the victim” inside the restaurant. Court filings accuse the customer of then “flipping and pushing items off the counter” and said she “deliberately splashed pink lemonade onto [the manager’s] face/chest area.”
The alleged tantrum caused about $100 damages to a display table and a metal iced tea dispenser, while cops noted that her outburst “disrupted diners and staff” at the restaurant.
She was arrested on charges of battery, criminal mischief, and disorderly conduct.
“Wyd...,” North West thought to herself, while surrounded by frightening, tall-sized kids dressed like humongous cats at the revival of Cats, a Broadway musical (starring Leona Lewis) that Auntie Kourtney drug North along to so she could experience the Arts firsthand even though all she wanted to do was eat an extravagant cookie.
Late-night TV wisenheimer and certified show business big shot Conan O’Brien brings new meaning to the term “lactose intolerant” in a video for The A.V. Club’s satirical sister site, ClickHole. The ginger-haired joke slinger displays what can only be called pure contempt for dairy products in this brief comedic vignette. The video’s convoluted title tells the tale: “Watch This Woman Tell Her Husband She’s Pregnant While Conan O’Brien Pours Good Milk Down The Sink.” That’s a heaping helping of words, but it accurately describes what happens here. A visibly excited young woman informs her delighted husband that she is finally pregnant. This is something they’ve both wanted for a while, so it should be a beautiful, poignant moment, the kind that’s suitable for sharing on social media. But for some reason, there’s a lanky basic cable talk show host standing ...
I applaud Christian for being inclusive without making a big deal of it, but most of this collection leaves me cold.
The front row for this show was a good one — from Christina Hendricks to Pamela Anderson (who felt very apropos given that Heather has been watching a lot of Baywatch lately) — and also featured several plus-size models, presented without fanfare, which was neat. How great it would be if every designer showed women Read More ...
There are fewer than two months to go until election day, and the 2016 presidential campaign has finally completed its transition from bizarre and occasionally hilarious piece of performance art to a reminder of the increasingly bleak reality of our country’s political system.
A San Antonio mattress store is apologizing after posting a video on Facebook advertising a “Twin Towers Sale” that parodies the World Trade Center towers collapsing.
For whatever reason, Miracle Mattress thought making light of the deaths of thousands of people would be a good way to sell mattresses: the manager says in the video that there’s no better way to remember the terrorist attacks on 9/11 than the store’s sale offering any size mattress for the price of a twin mattress, the San Antonio Express reported.
In the video, two workers stand in front of two towers of mattresses and an American Flag, while the store’s manager confirms that yes, every mattress is at a twin mattress price. The employees then knock over the mattress towers in apparent shock over the sale, and the store’s manager screams and then turns to the camera to deliver the kicker, “We’ll never forget,” with a smile.
The video has since been removed from Miracle Mattress’ Facebook page. Company owner Mike Bonanno posted a letter of apology on Facebook, writing that the video was posted on social media without his knowledge.
“I say this unequivocally, with sincere regret: the video is tasteless and an affront to the men and women who lost their lives on 9/11,” he wrote. “Furthermore, it disrespects the families who lost loved ones and continue to struggle with the pain of this tragedy every day of their lives.”
He adds that he is deeply sorry, and accepts responsibility for the “thoughtless and crude advertisement,” and will be holding his employees accountable for “this serious lapse of decency.”
Bonanno says the company will now review its marketing strategy to “ensure a stringent approval process will be in place to stop this from ever happening again.”
That mea culpa didn’t sit well with many Facebook commenters, with some calling it “tasteless.”
“Actions speak louder than words Miracle Mattress. You cast the first stone,” one said. “You can apologize all you want, but it was so tasteless, it’s beyond apology. You are laughing in the face of death! FOR PROFIT!!”
“How dare you make a joke of 9/11? I lost people that I loved on that nightmare day,” another person commented. “My life and the lives of all Americans will never be the same because of that day. There is no excuse for what you’ve done. That bullshit letter is almost as offensive as your commercial.”
Others were incredulous that no one flagged the idea as an awful, terrible, super bad one.
“What kind of business do you run that NO ONE in the room during that video had the right mind to say, ‘Hey guys, maybe this is somewhat distasteful,'” one person wrote. “I’m not one to judge people based on first impressions, but damn, this speaks volumes.”
“This makes me and countless other Americans sick. With as many people who were involved in the making of that video, not one blew the whistle? Not one person thought it was a bad idea?” another added.
Just yesterday, Walmart and Coca-Cola apologized for giving the go-ahead to a display at a Florida store featuring twin towers made out of Coke products that were on sale. There are still a few days before Sept. 11, which is plenty of time for other companies and brands to do something they shouldn’t. Think long and hard, marketing folks, before you put something out in the world you’ll regret.
There’s a new kid on the block at an Indianapolis-area shopping center, and some local residents aren’t too pumped about its arrival: folks who frequent a Chuck E. Cheese’s in that cluster of stores are upset that an adult novelty store is opening next door.
Hustler Hollywood has applied for permits to open its new location, plans that worry some parents and community representatives, reports WTHR.
“I can already tell you right now, if that goes in, we won’t be back here. That’s for sure,” one mother on her way to Chuck E. Cheese’s told the news station on Thursday. She adds that it would be especially upsetting because there aren’t many other places in the area to take kids.
Community leaders are chiming in as well, who are working to stop the novelly shop from opening its doors.
“There’s been a lot of positive things happening and that’s why it’s so disappointing to see a setback like this,” Jonathan Eriksen, Director of the Greater Allisonville Community Council, told WTHR. “They’re going to be able to meet the code requirements to get this done. The biggest issue is it’s incongruent with this area, it doesn’t make sense,” he adds.
See, the shop can get around being classified as an “adult bookstore” by claiming it will sell less than 25% material.
“We don’t know what kind of case we as a community of concerned citizens can possibly have when they’re not violating a zoning ordinance,” Eriksen told ABC 13.
Another local community leader says she’ll call for protestors to picket the store, and has also offered help to Hustler to find somewhere else to set up shop.
The manger of the Chuck E. Cheese’s in question didn’t provide comment to WTHR, and both Hustler Hollywood and the company that owns the property have remained mum so far as well.
Thunderstorms, some severe, erupted early Friday evening over east-central Illinois and west-central Indiana. Tornadoes were reported about 7 p.m. at several locations in east-central Illinois, including at least four tornadoes in Sidney, Catlin, Casey and Bismarck. There were no reports of injuries...
TORONTO – The central event of Tom Ford’s Nocturnal Animals, which plays out roughly in real time, is one of the scarier and upsetting film sequences in recent memory. Late one night on a deserted Texas highway, a family’s car is run off the road by a trio of menacing roughnecks. The everyday terror of the intimidation that follows makes for a sequence that’s relentless and terrifying, in which these three hair-trigger men leer at the wife and daughter, and challenge the power of the father, whom they’ve rendered helpless and impotent by the sheer force of their nastiness.
The fact that it’s fiction within the fiction renders it no less terrifying. It’s the key scene of a novel that’s been sent to our protagonist (Amy Adams) by her ex-husband (Jake Gylenhaal), an event that is clearly rooted in something that happened in their time together, though precisely what is not immediately clear. Ford intercuts her life now, while reading the novel, with the events of the book itself, ingeniously crossing their streams to create images in conversation with each other. He further complicates that structure in the second half by introducing flashbacks to their actual marriage, and to his credit, he keeps control of the narrative, telling each story by telling the other.
The tone is trickier, however; the early scenes of Adams’s vapid rich L.A. existence are almost satirically familiar, and the flashes of camp humor don’t play at all. And the portraiture of grotesque hillbilly culture makes Deliverance look comparatively subtle (keep an eye out for the scene with the guy sitting on the toilet on his front porch, which may as well be the Wikipedia image for “flyover country snobbery”). But it’s a movie that sticks with you- sleek and crisp, as is Ford’s style, but with scenes of domestic terror and toxic masculinity so tautly rendered, you sort of wish he’d just gone all the way with it and made an art-house Last House on the Left.

The emotional notes sounded in the devastating opening sequence of Denis Villeneuve’s Arrivalaren’t an aberration – he returns to them, devastatingly, in the closing passages – but they aren’t exactly expected. The Sicario director has always been an innovative stylist, and there’s plenty of that on display in this inventive alien-visitors story (which incorporates elements of Contact, Solaris, Intersteller, and several others of your choice). But his tendency to approach his pictures as problems to be solved can translate into a certain coldness, which sometimes works, and sometimes doesn’t. That is, to put it mildly, not a concern here.
But it’s also a damned fine Close Encounters-style story of awe and wonder (with a dash of dread); he shows a patience in his introduction of the alien visitors that’s not just admirable, but borderline subversive in a major studio release. He understands that establishing communication between life forms would be a process, and processes take time. But there’s background pressure, a ticking clock presented by the arrival of aliens around the world, in settings that are less friendly than others. That clock almost becomes a diversionary tactic; we’re so busy with the practical concerns that we don’t notice the machinery moving into place to wring our tears.
That phrase makes Arrival sound more manipulative than it is – it’s all organic, the way memories and emotions are intermingled, how present becomes past, and becomes future. The way the resolution is revealed, which I wouldn’t divulge for all the tea in China, is a moment of such storytelling ingenuity and skillful execution that I wanted to cheer at the sheer perfection of the moment, and the brilliant way Villeneuve and screenwriter Eric Heisserer orchestrate the dialogue, acting, cutting, and scoring. And then they get to the ending, a culmination of elements whose sheer emotional heft is downright staggering. Movies like this are what I’m here for.
*
The festival-going experience often results in films getting shortchanged by no fault of their own, and I very well might’ve shed a few tears at the tender conclusion of J.A. Bayona’s A Monster Calls had Arrival not just wrung me out. But it’s a really powerful ending, sensitive and clear-eyed, trafficking in difficult, complex, forceful adult emotions. The rest of it is pretty good as well, a handsomely mounted (if slightly airless) story of monsters and nightmares, and the real-life terrors that inspire them.
The primary monster, beautifully voiced by Liam Neeson, is a giant old true that every night, at precisely seven minutes past midnight, pulls himself from the ground, sheds his leaves, and becomes an oaken monster with fiery eyes. He’s a marvel of design, and the nightmare sequences are eerily convincing, while the animation breaks (for the stories he tells our young protagonist) are striking, animated in shifting styles, adding a welcome splash of visual variety. It’s a lovely little movie, and will probably play even better if you haven’t just seen one of the best films of the year.

The worldwide media circus that surrounded the case of Amanda Knox, the American student in Italy accused in 2007 of murdering (along with her boyfriend and another man) her roommate, was one of the out-sized phenomena that makes less sense the more you like at it. Why did this murder attract so much attention? What was our fascination with the case? Amanda Knox, the new documentary by Rod Blackhurst and Brian McGinn, notes that the separate trial of defendant Rudy Guede attracted relatively little scrutiny. But he was a black man from the Ivory Coast, and she was a pretty blonde from America. And there you have it.
Blackhust and McGinn tell her story nimbly, keeping us off-balance via the careful dissemination of information, walking us through all the versions and variations, stories that shift and don’t add up, turning evidence and eyewitness testimony inside out. They painstakingly trace the hours and days following the murder, reveal the damning evidence that made Knox look so guilty, and let us wonder, for a while, if she might be. And the tabloid press comes off looking worst, particularly their interview subject, a real sleaze named Nick Pisa. (One moment, in which he dismisses basic journalistic processes like fact-checking and multiple-sourcing with a dismissive, “It doesn’t work like that, not in the journalism game,” is particularly enlightening.)
So the doc-Rashomon approach works, as does the style – inventive photography, sharp cutting, baroque score – even if we keep waiting for the filmmakers to blow our minds in a way they never quite do. Amanda Knox isn’t a great true crime movie, but it’ll do ’till the next great one comes along.

Coming up tomorrow: new films from Christopher Guest and Oliver Stone, and a couple of potentially interesting arts-based documentaries.
Donald Trump said Friday that Hillary Clinton could "shoot somebody" in public and avoid prosecution -- echoing a phrase he once used to describe his electoral invulnerability.
Ugh. If anything, at least this election has exposed how transparently partisan this election is.
Washington D.C.—On Friday afternoon, anthropomorphic lie Donald Trump took the stage at the Family Research Council’s Values Voter Summit, an annual conference held by and for the most fervently anti-choice, anti-gay, pro-Jesus voters, and managed to not mention abortion or LGBT people a single time.
I'm Larry Legend, named after a Celtics legend and one of the greatest basketball players of all time. I hop like a bunny and eat like a piggy. My favorite past times are chewing on furniture, chewing on fingers and toes, eating, looking cute, and napping. I sleep with my eyes open which freaks everyone out. When I'm not running around like a maniac, I'm very sweet and snuggly. I'm a good boy and a fast learner. Even though I wake up way too early in the mornings, my parents love me to pieces.
There’s a certain kind of person who, four or five days into the shock following 9/11, suddenly thought, “You know, this would be the perfect opportunity for someone to fake their own death,” and then spent way too much time contemplating just how that might be done. Elizabeth Greenwood, author of the new book Playing Dead: A Journey Through the World of Death Fraud, is one of those people, although at 33, she’s too young herself to have taken that particular opportunity. Only one person—Steven Chin Leung—is known to have tried it. Leung, a freelance financial consultant for Cantor Fitzgerald, was out on bail on immigration charges during the attack, and afterward posed as two different (invented) Leung brothers to obtain his own death certificate and start a new life with a clean slate.
Meet Duke! He is our adorable Rhodesian Ridgeback who has filled our home with so much love! We got him at nine weeks old, and he has already learned so much as a young pup. He loves to play in our yard but will always want to be right next to wherever we are. His favorite game is tug of war, but loves to go for walks around our neighborhood to meet new friends. He is learning very quickly, but put those treats away as he only wants love and cuddling as a reward! He is only under 30 pounds now, but will grow to be just about 100. We will need to get a new couch just for our big boy! We couldn't be happier with our puppy Duke!
I did this with some San Marzanos I grew this summer and they came out so good. Just sliced them and very slowly heated them at 250 until they were juuuuust slightly roasted. They are SO GOOD.
One of the best ways to transform canned or out-of-season fresh tomatoes into something great is to slow-roast them in a low oven until their excess water has evaporated and their flavor is intense and concentrated.

Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston, the strangest celebrity spectacle of the summer, have reportedly broken up after almost three months of dating. The news comes from Us Weekly, which splashed a classic understated headline across its latest cover:
How disrespectful of the US military. He should be punished. Right?
Leveling unusually harsh criticism against the military, Republican Donald Trump said Wednesday night that America's generals have been "reduced to rubble" under President Barack Obama and suggested he would fire some of them if he wins the presidency in November.Trump's comments came during a...
Except for her gender, Hillary Clinton is a highly conventional presidential candidate. She’s been in public life for decades. Her rhetoric is carefully calibrated. She tailors her views to reflect the mainstream within her party.
The reaction to her candidacy, however, has been unconventional. The percentage of Americans who hold a “strongly unfavorable” view of her substantially exceeds the percentage for any other Democratic nominee since 1980, when pollsters began asking the question. Antipathy to her among white men is even more unprecedented. According to the Public Religion Research Institute, 52 percent of white men hold a “very unfavorable” view of Clinton. That’s a whopping 20 points higher than the percentage who viewed Barack Obama very unfavorably in 2012, 32 points higher than the percentage who viewed Obama very unfavorably in 2008, and 28 points higher than the percentage who viewed John Kerry very unfavorably in 2004.
At the Republican National Convention, this fervent hostility was hard to miss. Inside the hall, delegates repeatedly broke into chants of “Lock her up.” Outside the hall, vendors sold campaign paraphernalia. As I walked around, I recorded the merchandise on display. Here’s a sampling:
Black pin reading Don’t be a pussy. vote for Trump in 2016. Black-and-red pin reading trump 2016: finally someone with balls. White T-shirt reading trump that bitch. White T‑shirt reading hillary sucks but not like monica. Red pin reading life’s a bitch: don’t vote for one. White pin depicting a boy urinating on the word Hillary. Black T-shirt depicting Trump as a biker and Clinton falling off the motorcycle’s back alongside the words if you can read this, the bitch fell off. Black T-shirt depicting Trump as a boxer having just knocked Clinton to the floor of the ring, where she lies faceup in a clingy tank top. White pin advertising kfc hillary special. 2 fat thighs. 2 small breasts … left wing.
Standard commentary about Clinton’s candidacy—which focuses on her email server, the Benghazi attack, her oratorical deficiencies, her struggles with “authenticity”—doesn’t explain the intensity of this opposition. But the academic literature about how men respond to women who assume traditionally male roles does. And it is highly disturbing.
Over the past few years, political scientists have suggested that, counterintuitively, Barack Obama’s election may have led to greater acceptance by whites of racist rhetoric. Something similar is now happening with gender. Hillary Clinton’s candidacy is sparking the kind of sexist backlash that decades of research would predict. If she becomes president, that backlash could convulse American politics for years to come.
To understand this reaction, start with what social psychologists call “precarious manhood” theory. The theory posits that while womanhood is typically viewed as natural and permanent, manhood must be “earned and maintained.” Because it is won, it can also be lost. Scholars at the University of South Florida and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign reported that when asked how someone might lose his manhood, college students rattled off social failures like “losing a job.” When asked how someone might lose her womanhood, by contrast, they mostly came up with physical examples like “a sex-change operation” or “having a hysterectomy.”
Among the emasculations men most fear is subordination to women. (Some women who prize traditional gender roles find male subordination threatening too.) This fear isn’t wholly irrational. A 2011 study in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology found that men who have female supervisors earn less, and enjoy less prestige, than men whose bosses are male.
Given the anxieties that powerful women provoke, it’s not surprising that both men and women judge them more harshly than they judge powerful men. A 2010 study by Victoria L. Brescoll and Tyler G. Okimoto found that people’s views of a fictional male state senator did not change when they were told he was ambitious. When told that a fictional female state senator was ambitious, however, men and women alike “experienced feelings of moral outrage,” such as contempt, anger, and disgust.
But while both men and women are often critical of powerful women, men are more likely to react aggressively. A study published last year by researchers at Northwestern, Washington State, and Bocconi University, in Italy, reported that men negotiating with a female hiring manager demanded more money than those negotiating with a male one. Another recent study, this one by University of South Florida researchers, showed that after men had their gender identity threatened, they placed riskier bets. Feeling subordinate to women may also lead men to act recklessly in their private lives. According to the University of Connecticut’s Christin Munsch, men who are economically dependent on their wives are more likely than others to be unfaithful.
It gets worse. In a study of several hundred people, Jennifer Berdahl of the University of British Columbia found that women who “deviated from traditional gender roles—by occupying a ‘man’s’ job or having a ‘masculine’ personality” were disproportionately targeted for sexual harassment.
But sexual harassment isn’t more likely only when women violate traditional gender roles. It’s also more likely when men consider those roles sacrosanct. In another study, Italian researchers arranged for male students to collaborate online with a fictitious man and one of two fictitious women. One of the women said she wanted to become a bank manager “even though it takes so much time away from family” and that she had joined “a union that defends women’s rights.” The second woman said she wanted to be a teacher, which she considered “the ideal job for a woman because it allows you to have sufficient time for family and children.” Having told the subjects that they were participating in a test of visual memory, the researchers gave them an assortment of images to exchange, some of which were pornographic. In each group, the fictitious male interlocutor proceeded to send pornographic images to the fictitous female; the researchers studied which of the male students would do the same, and to which of the women. They reported that the feminist interlocutor received the most pornography, and that male students who endorsed traditional gender roles were most likely to send it.
Other studies have reached similar conclusions. Two analyses of American murder statistics, for instance, suggest that in cities in the South, where men tend to hold traditional attitudes about gender, greater economic equality between men and women correlates with higher rates of male-on-female murder. The same correlation was not found in areas with less traditional attitudes.
Why is this relevant to Hillary Clinton? It’s relevant because the Americans who dislike her most are those who most fear emasculation. According to the Public Religion Research Institute, Americans who “completely agree” that society is becoming “too soft and feminine” were more than four times as likely to have a “very unfavorable” view of Clinton as those who “completely disagree.” And the presidential-primary candidate whose supporters were most likely to believe that America is becoming feminized—more likely by double digits than supporters of Ted Cruz—was Donald Trump.
The gender backlash against Clinton’s candidacy may not defeat her. But neither is it likely to subside if she wins. Jennifer Lawless, the director of the Women & Politics Institute at American University, suggested to me that Clinton has generally grown more popular when she stops seeking an office and begins occupying it. This accords with the research showing public hostility toward overt displays of female ambition. On the other hand, the pollster Anna Greenberg notes that Clinton has generally been most popular when conforming to traditional gender roles (working on women’s issues as first lady, sticking by her husband during the Monica Lewinsky scandal, loyally serving Barack Obama as secretary of state) and least popular when violating them (heading the health-care task force, serving in the Senate, running for president). Being the first female president, needless to say, violates traditional gender roles.

Another troubling omen comes from Australia and Brazil, where, in recent years, pioneering female leaders have suffered a brutal backlash. To be sure, some women leaders—Margaret Thatcher, Angela Merkel, Indira Gandhi—have thrived despite sexist opposition. Still, research suggests that women leaders are less likely than their male counterparts to be accepted as legitimate, a problem that plagued both Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard, who was ousted in 2013 after only three years, and Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff, who was impeached earlier this year for corruption even though her male predecessors and some of her key male tormentors had likely done worse.
Because women in positions of power are seen as less legitimate than men in comparable positions, a study led by Yale’s Andrea Vial warns, their mind-set can come to resemble that of “illegitimate authorities.” A “self-reinforcing cycle” develops: In the face of disrespect, a woman’s leadership style can become overly tentative or aggressive. People in turn attack her, and she responds with more self-defeating defensiveness. In their 2007 biography of Clinton, the former New York Times reporters Jeff Gerth and Don Van Natta Jr. write:
Some of Hillary’s biggest mistakes began as rather inconsequential errors in judgment and exaggerations. When they were seized on by her critics, Hillary followed—and continues to follow—the same pattern: She dug in because she feared that admitting a mistake would arm her enemies.
Growing paranoid is easy when, because of your gender, people really are out to get you.
It would be comforting to believe that, whatever tribulations Clinton may endure personally, her presidency will still reduce sexism in society at large. Sadly, reactions to Obama suggest the picture is not so simple. In 2009, Stanford psychologists reported that having supported Obama actually made respondents more likely to choose a white job applicant over a black one. A 2011 paper by the University of Michigan’s Nicholas Valentino and Ted Brader found that Obama’s election persuaded some whites that racism had declined, which made them more critical of affirmative action. Thus, the election of a black president “had the ironic effect of boosting estimates of racial resentment.” In a new, unpublished study with Fabian Neuner and Matthew Vandenbroek, Valentino further posits that the Obama presidency may have given some whites “the perceived moral license to express more critical attitudes about minorities.”
Even without Clinton, resentment against female empowerment would be a potent force. In 2015, more Republicans told the Public Religion Research Institute that “there is a lot of discrimination” against white men than said “there is a lot of discrimination” against women. This spring, 42 percent of Americans said they believed the United States has become “too soft and feminine.” Imagine how these already unnerved Americans will react once there’s a female president. Forty-two percent isn’t enough to win the presidency. But it’s enough to create a lot of political and cultural turmoil. What I saw on the streets of Cleveland, I fear, may be just the beginning.
An Ohio woman who called herself a psychic apparently didn’t see a criminal indictment with more than two dozen charges attached to it in the stars. She stands accused of convincing clients to fork over about $1.5 million in cash, gift cards, jewelry, and cars.
According to detectives who investigated the woman for about a year and a half, between Aug. 1, 2001 and Sept. 16, 2015, the so-called psychic convinced her clients that bad things would happen to them or their families if they didn’t give her money and other valuable items as payment, Cleveland.com reports.
Records show that those payments included Rolex watches, a diamond ring, Frigidaire appliances, a kitchen table with four chairs, a 40-inch television, nine cellphones, an Apple iPad, Louis Vuitton and Chanel handbags, a neon sign, and a disco ball. Some clients leased expensive cars for the psychic as well, police said.
The 41-year-old woman is facing charges of engaging in a pattern of corrupt activity, theft, telecommunications fraud, and securing writings by deception in an indictment by a grand jury on Tuesday. That adds up to a potential 34 years in prison if she’s convicted on all charges. Her lawyer says she will plead not guilty, and is looking forward to her day in court.
Donald Trump's campaign released a letter Tuesday signed by 88 retired military leaders endorsing his presidential candidacy, including four four-star generals and 14 three-star flag officers, according to the campaign.
I read a while ago that Kendall Jenner was a lesbian and her family was forcing her to stay in the closet, and I never wanted a piece of gossip to be more true in my life. Harry Styles is cute though.
Elegant giraffe Kendall Jenner and floppy-haired subject of one of Taylor Swift’s more irritating songs Harry Styles are maybe back together again because they spent three whole days together. You know what that means, right?
