The wrestler said she’s seen her mother struggle since the day her father died in a tragic car accident when Mensah-Stock was still in high school — he was driving home from one of her wrestling matches. Now, the 28-year-old wants to ease her mother’s burdens and help fulfill her “dream.”
“Celebrities, politicians and a couple hundred other ‘close friends and family members’ packed in to celebrate former President Barack Obama’s 60th birthday Saturday in what was billed as a ‘scaled-back’ bash amid rising concerns about the fast-spreading Delta variant of COVID-19,” the New York Post reported. “Yet A-listers streamed into Martha’s Vineyard for the swanky soiree at Obama’s $12 million seaside mansion, and few were spotted wearing masks.”
COMMENTARY ON THE BELOW ARTICLE: Trying to cancel someone for a fictitious character??? – SkeptiX.
Freedom of Information requests found that more than two thirds of universities were signed up with Stonewall, alongside 58 health bodies and most Whitehall departments.
His Suicide Squad just opened to a pathetic $25 million, which makes it a historical failure.
COMMENTARY ON THE BELOW VIDEO: This guy is entertaining to watch (like a young Robert DeNiro) and knows his stuff. I primarily follow one of his other channels for or regular ‘infotainment’ on on precious metal industry news and and opinions. Consider giving him a follow – BrandX.

To start China is positioning themselves more and more to be the worlds strongest power as China’s Foreign minister met with senior leaders of the Taliban.
Along with this climate change and things such as flooding will be a growing problem as the years go on.
All while the delta variant and COVID seems to be making the comeback I knew it would.
As reality crumbles, people’s delusion will remain until the curtain falls.”
COMMENTARY ON THE BELOW VIDEO: Not too long ago, I solely spoke out against the harsher side of the critics of Islam. At no point would I say I was ‘Woke’ but I sometimes had common ground with those that are.
When the Daily Mail crossed the line, I spoke out. When The Guardian crossed the line, I’d turn the other way.
Having seen the metastasis of the Left into the mainstream and the massaging, pampering, mollycoddling and pedestalisation of the radicals, the below is something I must not fear sharing. And neither should you – BrandX.
VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
“Islam is the fastest-growing faith community in Britain. Domes and minarets are redefining the skylines of towns and cities as mosques become an increasingly prominent feature. Yet while Britain has prided itself on being a global home of cosmopolitanism and modern civilisation, its deep-rooted relationship with Islam is complex, threatened by rising hostility.
There is much media debate about embracing diversity in our communities, but what does integration look like on the ground, in places like Dewsbury, Glasgow, Belfast and London? How are Muslims, young and old, reconciling British values – of individualism, the rule of law, free speech & equality between the sexes – with literalist interpretations of their faith? And how is this tension, away from the public gaze, unfolding inside mosques today?
In this episode of #SWYSI, author & academic Prof. Ed Husain discusses how his new book “Among the Mosques: A Journey Across Muslim Britain” took him into the heart of Britain’s Muslim communities in a search for answers.
Travelling the length and breadth of the country, Husain joins men and women in their prayers, conversations, meals etc. He tells their stories here in an open and honest account that brings the daily reality of British Muslim life sharply into focus – a struggle of identity and belonging, caught between tradition and modernity, East and West, revelation and reason.
Ed Husain is an adjunct Professor in the Walsh School of Foreign Service in Georgetown University. He is also a writer and political advisor who has worked with leaders and governments across the world. He has held senior fellowships at think tanks in London and New York, including at the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) at the height of the Arab uprisings (2010-2015). While at CFR, his policy innovation memo led to the US-led creation of a Geneva-based global fund to help counter terrorism.
Husain was a senior advisor to former British Prime Minister Tony Blair (2015-2018). From 2018-2021 he completed his doctoral studies on Western philosophy and Islam under the direction of the English philosopher Sir Roger Scruton. He is the author of The Islamist (Penguin, 2007), The House of Islam: A Global History (Bloomsbury, 2018), and Among the Mosques (Bloomsbury, 2021). His writing has been shortlisted for the George Orwell Prize. A regular contributor to the Spectator magazine, he has appeared on the BBC and CNN and has written for the Telegraph, The Times, the New York Times, the Guardian and other publications.”

“To exchange one orthodoxy for another is not necessarily an advance. The enemy is the gramophone mind, whether or not one agrees with the record that is being played at the moment.” – Excerpt from ‘The Freedom of the Press’, by George Orwell (1945).
