Environmental activist Greta Thunberg mocks Donald Trump over famous parking lot incident

Chances are, you all know who Greta Thunberg is. This young lady from Sweden is a famous environmental activist known for her bravery to challenge leaders to take immediate action about one of the biggest threats against humanity and planet Earth, the climate change.

Greta is also known for getting into “arguments” with former president Trump, who once picked on Greta for no apparent reason and shared a link on Twitter showing her, writing the following: “She looks like a very happy young girl who is looking forward to a bright and wonderful future. So nice to see.”

Greta didn’t stay silent and updated her profile picture with the caption: “A very happy young girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future.” Her followers praised her for handling the “dispute” the way she did.

In January 2021, when Trump was waiving his supporters as he was entering his plane and leaving the White House, young Greta tweeted: “He seems like a very happy old man looking forward to a bright and wonderful future. So nice to see!

After Trump responded, he faced criticism by many for getting into “fights” with someone as young as Greta. Among those condemning the former POTUS was actress Mia Farrow who tweeted: “Mocking any kid is disgraceful. What an awful example you set. Apparently it bothers you that she represents many millions of children throughout the world – demanding their rightful future.”

Recently, Greta, who is busy studying, fighting against the climate change, and giving interviews, shared with her fans this secret as to why she is always seen moving her hands while speaking. She said she wanted to keep her hands busy and posted a photo of her and an embroidery.

What caught her followers’ attention were the words embroidered; Four Season Total Landscaping.

Namely, on the day of the election results in Pennsylvania, Trump announced on Tweeter his press conference in front of the Four Seasons Hotel. Later, however, after the hotel distanced itself from Trump, he deleted his tweet and then posted another one saying: “Big press conference today in Philadelphia at Four Seasons Total Landscaping – 11.30am!” according to The Guardian.

Now Greta saw this as a chance to “mock” Trump once again using her embroidery skills and her Tweeter followers say things like: “Greta never disappoints,” and “Busy hands, busy mind.”

Actor Michael Douglas pays tribute to his late father with a photo and a touching message

From the moment he made his debut in The Strange Love of Martha Ivers, it was pretty much obvious to everyone that Kirk Douglas would make a long-lasting impact in the world of film. Not long after his first movie, Kirk became a well-known name and remained one of the best actors of Hollywood until the day he passed, February 5, 2020.

He died at the age of 103 and is still dearly missed by his family, especially his son Michael Douglas and his stunning daughter-in-law Catherine Zeta-Jones, who never miss an opportunity to pay legendary Kirk a tribute.

On the one year anniversary of Kirk leaving this world, Michael posted a photo of him and his dad and wrote: “Can’t believe it’s been a year since you left us,At 103, you picked a good time to check out. I love you with all my heart! #KirkDouglas.” Zeta-Jones commented “Love you Pappy🙏🏻😘.”

The Douglas family have always been very close to one another and wanted the world to know that.

Last year, Michael shared a touching video of him and Kirk over the decades. It was voiced-over and the 76-year-old star could be heard saying: “The best advice my father gave me was, ‘Whatever you do, you do it to the best of your ability. You leave that job knowing that you couldn’t have done any more, and then walk away, you’ve done the best. Don’t look back.”

During an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Michael once again spoke of the love for his father and how much he had done for him throughout his life, as well as how much he missed him. “There wasn’t anyone like him. There’s another generation, that was the great generation, post-World War II…and Dad was one of kind. I think he’s very happy. I know he takes particular pride — not so much in whatever I worked with and I’m doing with the Motion Picture Television Fund — but I know he loves Catherine [and] the work that she’s doing. He always used to tease me. We would call him up and he would be like, ‘Enough with you, let me talk to your wife,’” he added. “He was a flirt until the very end.”

Zeta-Jones, who always speaks with huge amount of love and deep appreciation of Kirk said: “Oh yes, he’s a great flirt. He crosses our minds every day. But for me, during this time of, ‘OK, we are all locked down, what do you do?’ It’s so easy to go into a procrastination vibe. And Kirk, he went through so much from a helicopter crash to a stroke and then just age, being alone and what does he do with this time. And what was so admirable about him was he was always involved with courage events, he wrote 11 books, he worked with his rabbi, he worked with his philanthropic endeavors and he always created something to do and he taught me that lesson. He always said to us, ‘Write a book, do something else. What are you doing?’ And he’d be working on something right now, I’m sure.”

We will never forget how great of an actor and a human being Kirk Douglas was. His loving family is keeping his legacy alive. May he rest in peace!

Watch this emotional reunion between two circus elephants that hadn’t seen each other in 22 years

Being part of the circus is a traumatizing experience for any animal. As people enjoy watching lions, bears, elephants and other poor creatures perform different acts, they don’t really think of the struggles the animals go through. 

Jenny and Shirley are two elephants who played at the circus together. Over time, the two became inseparable and would spend lots of time hanging around. Of, course, whenever they were allowed to.

At the time they met, Jenny was just a baby, while Shirley was around 20 years old. Eventually, they were taken out of the circus and haven’t seen each other for more than 22 years. 

Everyone thought when the reunion would take place, the two elephants wouldn’t even recognize each other. But they were wrong! 

As they got close to one another and realized their friend stands opposite of them, their eyes sparkled. It was as though they never spent a day apart. 

The staff at The Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee were amazed by the animals’ reaction. Luckily, they got to spend six years together before Jenny passed away. 

This story is just another example that animals should be let to live and bond in their natural habitats. They don’t belong neither at zoos nor circuses. 

Take a look at Jenny and Shirley in the video below.

Donald Trump is “beyond angry” and “furious” with his impeachment defense team

Former president Donald Trump’s second impeachment is proceeding after being ruled it was within the law for it to take place regardless the fact he’s no longer the president of The United States.

Rep. Raskin of Maryland’s 8th district who leads the impeachment managers tweeted in January, “We have a solemn duty to protect our democracy and Constitution.” Trump is charged of inciting the violence in the Capitol on January 6 which prosecutors dub “the most grievous constitutional crime.”

From what had been seen by numerous reports, Trump was “furious” and “angry” at his defense team, particularly his lawyers Bruce L. Castor Jr. and David I. Schoen. People close to Trump claimed he didn’t like what he saw on TV from the comfort of his home in Mar-a-Lago, Palm Beach, Florida.

Trump’s legal team was only announced less than a week before the trial started, and they appeared unprepared. Alan Dershowitz, an attorney who represented Trump in his first impeachment trial, was reported saying: “There is no argument. I have no idea what he’s doing. I have no idea why he’s saying what he’s saying,” referring to Castor’s speech.

As the Democrats started the trial with videos of the Capitol riots showing demonstrants attacking police officers and evoking Trump’s name in hopes of disrupting the certification of the November election, Castor said: “The American people just spoke and they just changed administrations,” adding the public is smart enough to “pick a new administration if they don’t like the old one, and they just did.”

In his defense speech, Castor also claimed the former president wasn’t to be blamed for the riots and his impeachment was only a way to prevent him from running for president in four years time. “We are really here because the majority in the House of Representatives does not want to face Donald Trump as a political rival in the future,” Castor said. “That’s the real reason we’re here, and that’s why they have to get over the jurisdictional hurdle, which they can’t get over.”

Further, what raged Trump was not only the obvious weak speech, but the fact that Castor praised the House impeachment managers for “a job well done.”

According to CNN, Trump was screaming as Castor was struggling with his speech and failed “to get at the heart of his defense team’s argument.” 

Donald Trump’s daughter and son-in-law, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, made up to $640 million during his presidency, report finds

When former president Donald Trump announced he would be running for a president of the United States four years ago, both he and his family claimed how he had the wholehearted support of his children. They were and still are by his side and work closely with him.

When he did become the president, his daughter Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner took the role of his advisors in the White House despite being accused of nepotism.

They announced they wouldn’t be receiving salary or making any money.

However, according to financial disclosures analyzed by Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), the Trump-Kushner couple made between $172 million and $640 million during Donald Tump’s presidency. The couple claimed this was an outside income, not related to their job as advisors whatsoever.

The Independent also reported huge numbers of income, despite both Ivanka and her husband announcing they were stepping away from their daily operations in their companies when they entered the White House.

CREW said that Trump’s daughter and son-in-law “likely made hundreds of millions of dollars from questionable sources. All that was waived off by the same nepotism that got them their jobs.”

According to the same report, most of Ivanka’s income comes from her stake in the Trump Hotel in DC, around $13 million since 2017.

However, in the past, she claimed her stake was worth between $5 and $25 million, and then it was reported it decreased to $100,000-$250,000. She, though, had at least 28 foreign trademarks approved for her during the four years her father served as the president of the country.

“Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump should never have been allowed to work in the White House. The Department of Justice reversed decades of precedent to grant President Trump’s wish to have his children work in the White House. While taking on enormous responsibilities that they were unqualified to carry out, and debasing their positions with constant ethics scandals,” the report further stated.

Girl, 15, says “she’s forced to leave like a peasant” after mom cuts her allowance from $5,000 to $1,000

“Dr. Phil,” the talk show we all love so much, and the host, Dr. Phil himself, cover a variety of topics from the everyday of many families. They discuss and resolve issues around parents-children relationships, dysfunctional families, financial planning, weight loss, and way beyond this. 

I’m sure you remember Danielle Bregoli, then 13-year-old girl who had a violent relationship with her mother. Her famous phrase she said during Dr. Phil’s show “Cash me ousside, howbow dah?” was soon turned into a meme and she became sort of a celebrity. It helped her launch a career in the music industry.

This time, another girl that was guest at the show is stealing people’s attention, and again, all for the “wrong” reasons. 

Nicolette Gray, 15-year-old girl from California, is mad at her mom for reducing her $5,000 a month allowance to “just” $1,000, forcing her “to live like a peasant.”

Nicolette enjoyed a lavish lifestyle and spent huge amounts of money on designer clothes and handbags. What’s most, she proudly calls herself a “brat” and wan’t her old life back. Apparently, $1,000 a month is way too low for her to be able to allow all her whims. 

Her mom, Nina Gray, says how her daughter can’t control her spending and has already piled up massive credit card bills.

Despite reducing her allowance, Nina also invited a family friend named Joel to live with them and keep an eye on how much Nicolette spends. 

Nicolette tried to make the audience feel sorry for her as she complained how she needs $2,500 just to cover her “basic” needs and she’s now always short on money. 

Nina, however, believes she had to do something in order to stop her girl from becoming spoiled and bratty. Sorry to say this, but we believe she’s spoiled rotten already. 

Nina says how she knows it was her fault that her daughter acquired that kind of behavior as she has been exposed to a lot of money and credit cards ever since she was very little. 

Over time, Nina couldn’t control Nicolette as she always threatens to make her mom’s life a living hell unless she gives her the money she needs to spend on luxuries. 

Dr. Phil advised Nina to not let Nicolette’s threats and tears make her give more money. Instead, she should try to bond with her on an emotional level and teach her of the right values in life. 

Take a look at the episode in the video below. 

Ivana Trump, Donald Trump’s first wife, takes all the “credit” for raising their children

By

When she first arrived in New York City from Canada where she lived for a while, Donald Trump’s first wife and mother of three of his children, met the mogul at a restaurant and it was the start of their relationship and the 14 years of marriage which ended with a bitter divorce.

Ivana was born on February 20, 1949 in Gottwaldov, today’s Zlin, Czechoslovakia, today’s Czech Republic.

As a child, she had it all. Her father Milos was very strict, but he taught his daughter to be disciplined. Ivana was very good at athletics and learned how to ski when she was around three years old. Some of her former classmates describe her as a very bright and intelligent woman who excelled at school.

Her beauty helped her get into the modeling industry and work with some of the most famous names in the world of fashion at the time after finding her way out of Communist-controlled Czechoslovakia.

Once in Canada, Ivana met and later married Austrian skier Alfred Winklmayr. The two stayed together for two years, and then in 1976, Ivana went to New York at a fashion show and that’s when her love story with the former president Trump began.

In her memoir, Ivana wrote how she and some friends were at Maxwell’s Plum, described by a 1988 The New York Times article as “a flamboyant restaurant and singles bar that, more than any place of its kind, symbolized two social revolutions of the 1960s – sex and food.” 

Getting a table there wasn’t easy, and as Ivana was waiting, this tall man with blue eyes tapped her on the shoulder, introduced himself as Donald Trump, and told her he will arrange a table for her. “I look at my friends and said, ‘The good news is, we’re going to get a table real fast. The bad news is, this guy is going to be sitting with us,’” she said in an interview with the NY Post.

After the dinner, Donald paid the bill and left the place. Once she was out, Ivana noticed him waiting for her in his limousine, and that’s how they started dating. At the time, Donald was the richest and most influential mogul who had just inherited his father’s empire and business.

Shortly after, Donald and Ivana tied the knot. First, their son Donald Trump Jr.was born, and then they welcomed their daughter Ivanka and son Eric.

After 14 years of marriage, the two divorced, and at the time, all eyes were on them. Ivana received $25 million and custody over her kids. Speaking of Donald, she always praised him of being the father every child could ask for. Although strict and unconventional, Donald was devoted and his children love him and support him.

“Donald might not have been the greatest husband to me, but he was a good father to the kids,” Ivana wrote. “Obviously, they adore him and are fiercely loyal to him. If he were a horrible dad, that would not be the case. If Donald wants to write a book about fatherhood, I would be happy to read it.”

Ivana took care of her kids, but she was also very successful as the CEO of two of Trump’s hotels.

“I believe the credit for raising such great kids belongs to me. I was in charge of raising our children before our divorce, and I had sole custody of them after the split,” she wrote in her memoir Raising Trump. “When each one finished college, I said to my ex-husband, “Here is the finished product. Now it’s your turn.”

After Donald, Ivana was married twice. Both times with men younger than her.

Speaking to Oprah in 2013, she said: “Younger guy gives you a little bit of the edge because it’s just more of the energy, which I definitely need. They have a hard time to keep up that’s for sure.”

However, both her marriages lasted quite shortly, for about two years. Her now ex-husband Riccardo Mazzucchelli said that Donald was to blame for his break up with Ivana. Donald, at the time, claimed she was still in love with him.
