Designer Sophie Theallet has announced on Twitter she will not design and dress Melania Trump with her brand: Theallet has designed and dressed First Lady Michelle Obama during the past eight years, which she called "a highlight and an honor." Obama's "values, actions, and grace have always resonated deeply within" the designer. She added:
As one who celebrates and strives for diversity, individual freedom, and respect for all lifestyles. I will not participate in dressing or associating in any way with the next First Lady. The rhetoric of racism, sexism, and xenophobia unleashed by her husband's presidential campaign are incompatible with the shared values we live by. I encourage my fellow designers to do the same.

It's Friday. We could be discussing Trump's latest round of cabinet picks, getting angry with the media for over-inflating some less desirable details about our new administration's past, but instead, I've decided to share with you one of the best news stories ever -- the case of the exploding whale. When an eight ton whale washed ashore near Florence, Oregon, the local highway department found themselves stuck, unsure of how to remove the giant, stinky once-whale.

Wanda Sykes performed at 22nd annual Comics Come Home fundraiser in Boston, MA, when she decided to go off on President-elect Donald Trump:
“I am certain this is not the first time we’ve elected a racist, sexist, homophobic president,” said Sykes during her set, a video of which is below. “He ain’t the first one. He’s just the first confirmed one.” Within a matter of seconds, the crowd and Sykes turned on each other. “F— you, motherf—ers,” Sykes said as the crowd’s boos intensified. “F— all y’all. F— all y’all.”
The audience responded with jeers and boos, which led Sykes to flip them off.

I confess, I wasn't aware of this Jonathan Pie person prior to this video, but it's a keeper. Pie, a faux news reporter played by Tom Walker, is shown in what appears to be a "hot mic" type moment prior, apparently, to going on to do his serious news reporting.  This is the guy's angle for his biting and insightful political satire, and he's good at it. His latest gem is making the internet rounds and for good reason.  He rails against the left, Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump, SJW's, and he manages to say everything we've been saying here for months. Calling us "deplorables," racists, fascists, Islamaphobes, and whatever else was not going to win Hillary any votes, and it sure wasn't going to make us sit down and shut up.

Say it with me: The Chicago Cubs won the 2016 World Series. A perfect way to end a magical season that still seems unreal to us lifelong diehard crazy Cubs fans who have endured heartache after heartache. https://twitter.com/Cubs/status/794038334813151233
