The ancient Egyptians watched Earth’s night sky closely and named constellations after their gods. But did the builders of the pyramids really make these monuments with the stars in mind?

What A Joke! NBC’s New Comedy ‘Kenan’ Sings ‘Stacey Abrams Is So Dope’

March 2, 2021 MadMadNews Reposted Filed Under: INVESTIGATIONS, Newsbusters

Saturday Night Live comedian Kenan Thompson’s new NBC show, Kenan, has some crazy ideas about what little girls want to hear about at bedtime. Apparently princesses are out and Stacey Abrams is in.

In the new comedy, Kenan is a widowed father raising two young daughters with the help of his brother and father-in-law. In the episode, ‘The Fourth Hour,’ on March 2, Kenan tries to put his daughters, Bridget (Dannah Lane) and Aubrey (Dani Lane) to bed with a nighttime reading of Sleeping Beauty. His daughters stop him to explain that they are not interested.

Bridget: Princesses are dumb.

Kenan: What? When did this happen?

Aubrey: Recess. Princesses are out. Empowerment is in. Will you sing us a song about that please? 

Kenan (singing): Okay, uh… Title IX.  You are so fine. Famous for your place in athletics. 

Bridget and Aubrey: Yeah, no.

It is probably good that the girls quashed a song about women’s athletics. It would end up being a sad song about how transgender athletes then take over women’s sports and crush girls’ dreams.

Maybe Kenan could have sung about the empowering Star Wars character Cara Dune…nope, wait, she has been cancelled. Maybe instead of reading Sleeping Beauty he could have read a Dr. Seuss book…oh, wait, those have been cancelled, too.

No worries. Kenan finds a solution. At the end of the episode, the audience sees Kenan and his father-in-law, Rick (Don Johnson), putting the girls to sleep with an “empowerment” bedtime song about failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams.

Kenan: ♪ And that’s why Stacey Abrams is so dope ♪ All right? That ends our abridged bedtime routine, right? 

Aubrey: Wait, aren’t you forgetting something, Papa Rick? 

Rick: You go to sleep.

Aubrey: [Laughs] 

Bridget: No! [Laughs] 

Kenan: You stay down

Rick: Go to bed.

Did the song’s other lines include, “She’s so dope she convinced people that election integrity is racist”? Yes, turning a state’s election system into a chaotic mess is so empowering. You go, girl!

Kenan is a sweet show, but it has a habit of tossing a controversial “woke” line into every episode, just quick enough to avoid alienating an audience too much while signaling to the powers that be that it plays for the Democrats’ team. Still, imagining Stacey Abrams as the right princess replacement is a bit much even for a comedian who cut his teeth on Saturday Night Live.

This rant was brought to viewers in part by Crest and Gillette. You can fight back by letting these advertisers know what you think of them sponsoring such content.

Too Late: Former Cuomo-Worshiper Colbert Suddenly Finds Criticism for Scandal-Laden Governor

March 2, 2021 MadMadNews Reposted Filed Under: INVESTIGATIONS, Newsbusters

Late night liberal “comedians” are finally jumping on the bandwagon to criticize formerly beloved New York governor, Andrew Cuomo. Taking the media’s lead, Late Show host Stephen Colbert suddenly found the scandal-embroiled Democrat was an easy target, after several women came forward alleging sexual harassment from the governor. 

On his Monday night show, Colbert spent roughly three minutes mocking Cuomo as an “old man” pervert for his alleged creepy comments and behavior towards young women. This after, he spent 2020 grossly promoting the Democrat’s leadership and sex appeal. 

Click “expand” to read the monologue:

COLBERT: First, the governor was accused of covering up COVID deaths in nursing homes, now two former aides accused him of sexual harassment in the workplace. The first, a former state economic development official, Lindsey Boylan, said Cuomo harassed her on several occasions from 2016-2018, at one point giving her an unsolicited kiss on the lips at his Manhattan office. Boylan also said on a flight back on a flight back from Western New York the governor said let’s play strip poker. My first reaction was: That is entirely inappropriate. My second reaction was: Really? Strip poker on a plane? How limber is he? “All right, I got a pair of twos. The rest is slop. Gotta take these pants off. Excuse me, could you move your seat-back up? My belt buckles getting caught in the magazine pocket.” But then, I found out it was a private jet. Or in this case, “Privates.” 

Cuomo’s office denied Boylan’s accusations, but then the governor was also accused of sexual harassment by his former executive assistant and health policy adviser, Charlotte Bennett. Bennett had just turned 25 last year when Cuomo asked her in his office if she “Had ever been with an older man.” (As Cuomo) “I mean, really old, but still kind of cut. May or may not have a nipple ring? Ringing any bells, that might be hanging from my nipple ring?” This time, Cuomo apologized, but gave this excuse: “At work sometimes I think I am being playful and make jokes that I think are funny.” I know that one. (as Cuomo) “Knock-knock.” “Who’s there?” “An older man.” “An older man who?” “An older man who is not too old to have sex with!” 

Bennett also says that as they were discussing her 25th birthday, Cuomo said that he felt “He’s fine with anyone above the age of 22.” Wow, her office birthday party must have been awkward: “Happy third year I’m willing to date you!” Bennett believes the governor was grooming her by trying to get close, remembering that at one point they bonded over the fact that she had played middle-school soccer against one of his daughters. I hope he’s not one of those nightmare sports dads who’s always yelling, “Hey, ref! How old is that one?”

Of course, Cuomo’s accusers’ claims are even more disturbing considering how the media propped up the governor as a sex symbol. The Late Show host didn’t acknowledge how he played into that as well, such as during this cringe-y moment on his May 8 show asking the governor to “unbutton his shirt” or “give a smoldering stare.”  

But nearly a year later, Cuomo’s nursing home scandal is still relegated to the backburner on the Late Show. In the past month, the political comedian only targeted the governor one other time about the scandal, on his February 23 show. He mocked Cuomo for opening back up movie theaters in New York City as a distraction from his nursing home scandal…the same one that Colbert himself ignored while he gave the Democrat free flattery and airtime to promote his “pandemic playbook”:

COLBERT: Yesterday, the governor announced that, for the first time in nearly a year, movie theaters in New York City will be permitted to open. It’s all part of Cuomo’s new COVID response plan, “Operation: Please stop talking about the nursing home thing.” ( As Cuomo ) “I was a meme! Remember? Do I have a nipple ring or don’t I? Where are my Cuomosexuals at?”

The Late Show

3/1/2021

STEPHEN COLBERT: One person not enjoying the spotlight right now is New York governor and sharpei when you bring home the new baby, Andrew Cuomo. First, the governor was accused of covering up COVID deaths in nursing homes, now two former aides accused him of sexual harassment in the workplace. The first, a former state economic development official, Lindsey Boylan, said Cuomo harassed her on several occasions from 2016-2018, at one point giving her an unsolicited kiss on the lips at his Manhattan office. Boylan also said on a flight back on a flight back from Western New York the governor said let’s play strip poker. My first reaction was: That is entirely inappropriate. My second reaction was: Really? Strip poker on a plane? How limber is he? “All right, I got a pair of twos. The rest is slop. Gotta take these pants off. Excuse me, could you move your seat-back up? My belt buckles getting caught in the magazine pocket.” But then, I found out it was a private jet. Or in this case, “Privates.” 

Cuomo’s office denied Boylan’s accusations, but then the governor was also accused of sexual harassment by his former executive assistant and health policy adviser, Charlotte Bennett. Bennett had just turned 25 last year when Cuomo asked her in his office if she “Had ever been with an older man.” (As Cuomo) “I mean, really old, but still kind of cut. May or may not have a nipple ring? Ringing any bells, that might be hanging from my nipple ring?” This time, Cuomo apologized, but gave this excuse: “At work sometimes I think I am being playful and make jokes that I think are funny.” I know that one. (as Cuomo) “Knock-knock.” “Who’s there?” “An older man.” “An older man who?” “An older man who is not too old to have sex with!” 

Bennett also says that as they were discussing her 25th birthday, Cuomo said that he felt “He’s fine with anyone above the age of 22.” Wow, her office birthday party must have been awkward: “Happy third year I’m willing to date you!” Bennett believes the governor was grooming her by trying to get close, remembering that at one point they bonded over the fact that she had played middle-school soccer against one of his daughters. I hope he’s not one of those nightmare sports dads who’s always yelling, “Hey, ref! How old is that one?” 

Now, people are calling for an independent investigation, like New York Mayor Bill de Blasio, seen here [standing with hands on hips] proving not all superheroes wear capes, or are super, or are heroes. De Blasio and Cuomo are friendly rivals, much the same way that a cobra and a mongoose like to kid each other. Which may be why de Blasio seemed so quick to call Cuomo’s alleged behavior “Just disgusting, creepy. When I heard it, it sickened me, it disgusted me, but it also sounded like, yeah, I could believe that happening, too. And that’s why we need a full investigation.” Adding, “Someone else is hated more than me! Wooh! Keep investigating. I’m free. Suck it Andy!”

Saturday Night Live Condemned as Anti-Semitic for This Joke

February 22, 2021 MadMadNews Reposted Filed Under: INVESTIGATIONS, Newsbusters

It’s bad enough that Saturday Night Live is unfunny liberal propaganda, but is the NBC show now engaging in anti-Semitic tropes? During the “Weekend Update” segment of Saturday’s episode, comedian Michael Che offered this “joke”: “Israel is reporting that they have vaccinated half their population. And I’m going to guess it’s the Jewish half.” 
                    
It’s lame, not funny and false. Here’s the cringe-inducing video: 

 

 

The Washington Times reported on the uproar the joke caused: 

The American Jewish Committee posted a petition Sunday blasting the joke as “dangerous, a modern twist on a classic antisemitic trope,” and calling on the network to “retract its outrageous claim and apologize immediately.”

“On February 20, during NBC’s Saturday Night Live, Michael Che accused Israel of vaccinating only its Jewish citizens,” said the AJC statement. “The claim is categorically false: every Israeli, regardless of religion or ethnicity, is eligible for the COVID vaccine, and more than two thirds of Israel‘s Arab citizens over 60 have already been vaccinated.”

The pro-Israel group StandWithUs asked supporters to join a letter-writing campaign asking the show and NBC to “apologize and disown this dangerous and misleading assertion,” describing it as an “antisemitic libel.”

Former Bush White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer condemned the joke as “vile.” 

 

 

This is the same “Weekend Update” that, in 2018, trashed then-congressional candidate Dan Crenshaw, a military vet who lost his eye to an IED blast, as a “hitman in a porno movie.”  SNL’s Pete Davidson was later forced to apologize. Will the show apologize for this vile “joke”?
