Podcaster Jake Paul Slammed Over His Plans To Do Blackface Sketch In Retaliation Against Druski
Apr 08, 2026
In a rare moment of clarity, podcaster and sort of boxer Jake Paul thinks conservatives are really dumb for being so mad about Druski's Erika Kirk video! So much so that he plans to do blackface about it. Uh oh...
During an interview with comedian Theo Von on his podcast This Past Weekend w/Theo Von, Paul dragged his fellow Republicans for being so in their feelings about Druski's "hilarious" video.
And supposedly in the spirit of "truth and comedy," Paul told Von he wants to film a blackface response to Druski's skit, because "we should f**king make fun of each other" and he doesn't "see in color."
Now, in case you missed it, Druski has gone wildly viral for dressing up as a character obviously meant to reference Erika Kirk, mocking the way she has turned her husband Charlie Kirk's murder into a three-ring media circus.
Right or wrong, he pretty much nailed Kirk's media presence since Kirk was shot in 2025, right down to her stage entrances with fireworks and everything.
MAGA, of course, has had a meltdown at how supposedly disrespectful and, yes, racist, it is—which is not even possible, because racism is about power, and Black people do not hold power over white people. That isn't real.
Anyway! Paul agrees that MAGA's uproar over the video is embarrassing. He told Von:
"I'm obviously Republican, and all the Republicans being mad about this sh*t is like a fu**ing L for Republicans because this is fu**ing hilarious. And even though it's fu**ing dark and twisted, this is what comedy fu**ing is."
But then things took a sharp turn into cringe, to say the least.
Paul told Von he'd been talking to makeup artists to do a "full on" response in which he'd be "darker"—essentially, blackface, in order to:
"...just do it back. Because why not? Like, are we on the same playing field?"
Um, no, Jake, you're not. That's kind of the literal definition of race.
Von, while only slightly less doltish than Paul and his ilk, at least had the wherewithal to recommend to Paul that he get either Druski or another prominent Black entertainer to collaborate on the skit with, to make sure it stays on the up and up.
Paul didn't like that idea:
"But still, that's pu**ying out. Doesn't that make us more prejudiced?... If we have to partner with someone? Druski just dropped this."
"...This is how humans should be. We should fu**ing make fun of each other. And I don't see in color; I see in truth and comedy. So, like, what are we talking about? What era are we living in?"
Oh brother.
Now in case anyone's confused: Black people mocking whiteness is mocking a power structure that oppresses them. White people mocking Blackness is piling on people who deal with racist oppression every single day, and something white people know nothing about because white people are not and never have been oppressed by Black people.
Whiteface and blackface are ... not the same.
And given all of that, you can probably guess how well Paul's take went over with pretty much anyone on the ride side of history.
Perhaps Paul should leave the comedy to comedians and stick to getting the living sh*t pounded out of him in boxing matches instead. Just a suggestion!

Gavin Newsom's Wife Has Stark Warning For MAGA Women Who Still Support Trump—And She's Absolutely Right
Apr 08, 2026
Jennifer Siebel Newsom, First Partner of California, shared a message for the women of MAGA in the wake of the firings of Attorney General Pam Bondi and Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem.
The two women were the first Cabinet members of MAGA Republican President Donald Trump’s second administration to get their walking papers.
Trump, under the advice of Stephen Miller and the Heritage Foundation to fulfill their Project 2025 agenda, selected grossly unqualified people for his second administration, so any cabinet member could have been terminated.
Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom's wife made the case that it was telling the first two cabinet members fired were women, based on Trump's well documented history of misogyny.
In a video posted to Instagram, Siebel Newsom said:
"Trust me, I'm not a fan of Pam Bondi nor Kristi Noem, but I need to call out that it's no surprise to me that the first two prominent people pushed out of this administration were women."
"The conservative women that Trump handpicks who align themselves with an agenda that controls women, restricting our rights, limiting our autonomy... is only in service of men."
You can see the video here:
Siebel Newsom, co-founder of gender rights nonprofit California Partners Project, continued:
"There's a familiar pattern here. Women are brought in, packaged Mar-a-Lago style, and lifted up as long as they commit to wholeheartedly serve the interests of the patriarch at the top."
"Now it looks like power, or proximity to power with a big title, but it never comes with job security and protection."
"There's no secure place inside this handpicked patriarchal body that systemically disrespects, devalues and discriminates against women and girls."
She offered a warning to the women of MAGA:
"And this is where complicity comes in, because when you align yourself with that value system, with a leader who has publicly devalued women, degraded them, and been found liable of abusing women, well, guess what? You're going to be the first to go."
"Your power is only temporary, and ultimately they will come for you. That's the unfortunate truth for all women."
"No woman is safe in Trump's Republican Party unless she has enough wealth or the ability to buy her own job security and safety."
"And so, my friends, regardless of your political affiliation you might want to wake up and see this for what it truly is, it's a war on all women."
The first to jump into the comments were MAGA men, like bondzie1 and 1flyingcarpet, declaring women have it great and are under no threat.


But their false claims were quickly refuted with facts.






Many women concurred with Siebel Newsom's assessment.













Trump has a long, well-documented history of misogyny.
He has a habit of referring to women as pigs—telling a female journalist, "quiet piggy"—and saying he assaults women, grabbing and kissing them without their consent and entering the dressing rooms of even underage girls, because he's unable to stop himself.

Trump Tries To Blame Awkward Silence During Call With Artemis II On Technical Glitch—But The Video Says Otherwise
Apr 08, 2026
President Donald Trump was not fooling anyone when he blamed a supposed technical glitch for the Artemis II crew’s silence during their historic fly-by of the Moon.
Artemis II is the first mission to bring astronauts toward the Moon in over half a century, launching successfully on April 1 to the delight of space enthusiasts and the general public alike.
The last week—during which crew members, among other things, observed the Moon's geological features and color variations that could reveal mineral composition—have raised hopes that a Moon landing could be achievable by 2028.
The four Artemis II astronauts—Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch and Jeremy Hansen—reached a historic milestone on the sixth day of their mission, traveling 248,655 miles from Earth, farther than any humans have ever ventured.
On the evening of April 6, shortly before 10 p.m. ET, Trump announced on social media that he would soon speak live with the crew. When the call began, the astronauts appeared smiling inside the Orion capsule as Trump congratulated them and asked several questions, including what it felt like when their spacecraft briefly lost contact with Earth.
Earlier in the exchange, Trump praised the astronauts and noted that he had spoken with Canadian hockey legend Wayne Gretzky, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and other friends in Canada who were proud of Hansen, the Canadian member of the crew, who himself said he was "so proud" to be a part of the mission.
That's when things got weird with Trump's response:
"Well, I have to say I spoke to a very special person, Wayne Gretzky, you know, the Great One, and I spoke to your prime minister, and many other friends in Canada who are so proud of you."
“You have a lot of courage. I’m not sure if they’d want to do that. I’m not even sure if the Great One would want to do that, to be honest with you.”
"But you have a lot of courage to be doing what you're doing, a lot of bravery, and a lot of genius, but they're very, very proud of you."
After a brief lull in the conversation, both the astronauts and the president remained silent for about a minute before the crew asked for “a quick comms check” to confirm Trump was still connected to the call. Trump replied, "I am, yes," to laughter from the crew.
Trump attributed the awkward pause to what he described as a “nine-second delay” in the communication:
"Yeah, I think we might have gotten cut off. It is a long distance, it's a long way, [but] reception has been great. There's been a little bit of a nine-second delay but I had a statement." ...
"They're very proud, you're a brilliant person from Canada on the ship and Wayne Gretzky's a great friend of mine and he's very proud of him."
Wiseman took the mic and replied:
"Yes, Mr. President, we heard that, and we love all of our Canadian astronauts."
You can watch what happened in the videos below.
The video definitely shows there wasn't a glitch at all—and people sure had some thoughts to share about the crew's reaction.
During their mission, the Artemis II astronauts also proposed names for two lunar craters, adding to their historic spaceflight milestone.
One crater would be called Integrity, after their spacecraft, while the other would honor Carroll, the late wife of commander Wiseman. Once the mission concludes, the proposed names will be submitted to the International Astronomical Union, which oversees the official naming of celestial bodies and surface features.
The crew is now more than halfway through their journey and is expected to splash down off the coast of San Diego at about 8:07 p.m. EDT (5:07 p.m. PDT) on Friday, April 10.
After landing, recovery teams will retrieve the astronauts by helicopter and transport them to the USS John P. Murtha. There, they will undergo initial post-flight medical checks in the ship’s medical bay before heading back to shore and boarding an aircraft bound for NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston.

Dan Levy Gets Choked Up While Visiting 'Schitt's Creek' Town For First Time Since Catherine O'Hara's Death
Apr 08, 2026
Dan Levy has been open about his grief after the loss of the late, great Catherine O'Hara.
Catherine O'Hara was a lot of things to a lot of people, with her versatility and willingness to create big, memorable characters that people love and cherish, from Kate McCallister to Delia Deetz to Moira Rose.
But to Dan Levy, she was more than a costar, onscreen mom, or even family friend; she was more like an aunt, having worked with his father, Eugene Levy, for decades and meeting Dan when he was still a baby.
During an interview with CBS Sunday Morning, Levy talked about his time on Schitt's Creek and the deepening of his relationship with O'Hara when they started working together on the show.
Part of the interview took place in Goodwood, Ontario, the small, Canadian town where most of Schitt's Creek was filmed.
Levy knew in advance that this visit would be taking place, and he was confident that he'd be able to talk about the show, about O'Hara's passing, and visit the Schitt's Creek primary location without choking up. But he was very, very wrong.
When asked if he could envision a revival of Schitt's Creek, Levy's response resonated around the world:
"Oh no, not now. You can't."
Because the "now" had nothing to do with time. It wasn't about being too soon after the show ended six years ago. The "now" referred to O'Hara's absence. To his mind, there can be no Schitt's Creek without Moira Rose.
You can watch the segment here:
@cbssundaymorning “I didn’t think that I’d have quite an emotional reaction”: “Schitt’s Creek” co-creator Dan Levy returns to Goodwood, Ontario, the town where the hit show was filmed — and dismisses the idea of a sequel without his late co-star, Catherine O’Hara, who died in January. #danlevy #schittscreek
The interview quickly went viral across social media platforms, with people resonating with Levy's grief and his unwillingness to see the show go on without O'Hara.
Instagrammers were touched by Levy's honesty.







X users were struggling to process their own grief.

Losing Catherine O'Hara has been heartbreaking for so many. The best thing we can do is continue to enjoy her memory and all that she gave us during her incredible acting career.

Laura Ingraham Gets Blunt Reminder After Awkward Video Of Her Doing The Griddy Dance Goes Viral
Apr 07, 2026
After sharing a video of herself doing the "Griddy," Fox News talking head Laura Ingraham was called out for appropriating Black culture after years of attacking Black people, Black Democratic leaders, sharing racist stereotypes, and attacking their basic human rights on her program.
The Griddy is a popular celebratory dance seen in the NFL, NBA, and the game Fortnite. It was popularized by NFL players Ja'Marr Chase of the Cincinnati Bengals and Justin Jefferson of the Minnesota Vikings.
Allen "Griddy" Davis, a friend and high school teammate of Chase in New Orleans, created the dance in 2017 while still in high school. Chase learned it and later taught it to his college teammate Jefferson at Louisiana State University, leading to its adoption in the NFL.
You can see the original Griddy showing how it's done here:
But Ingraham’s rendition of the Griddy has been branded a "cringe fest" by social media users for multiple reasons.
Ingraham gained an audience first on right-wing radio, then on Fox News by spreading racist, homophobic, transphobic, xenophobic, and Islamaphobic stereotypes, lies, and rhetoric on her program The Ingraham Angle since 2017.
In a post shared to her Instagram account, the former talk radio host wrote she was doing a "post-dinner Griddy" and that her "daughter made [her] do it" in case anyone was looking for who to blame.

You can see Ingraham Griddy here in a repost of her video by comedian Aries Spears:
Spears captioned his repost, after tagging Ingraham:
"it’s funny this the same Laura ingraham that told LeBron to just shut up and dribble and now here she is dancing to hip hop! Isn’t it amazing how some white people love to use us when it’s time for the fun parts of the culture but when we have a social or political conscious they want us to stay in our place"
In the comments, Chris Dailey (@mr__wise__guy) explained:
"It’s wild watching people pretend not to understand the point Aries Spears is making. This isn’t about dancing. It’s about the pattern."
"Laura Ingraham is the same person who told LeBron to 'shut up and dribble' when he spoke on real issues, but now she’s perfectly happy to dip into the culture when it’s time for the fun, trendy, feel‑good parts. That’s not appreciation. That’s selective convenience."
"This is exactly what cultural appropriation looks like: Enjoy the art, reject the artists. Love the culture, silence the people who created it."
"And the folks jumping in to tell Aries to 'stick to comedy' are proving his point. The moment a Black entertainer speaks on something real, suddenly they’re 'out of line.' But everyone else gets to comment freely."
"If you’re going to enjoy the culture, then respect the people behind it — not just when it entertains you, but when it challenges you too."

Others concurred with that sentiment.



According to a Grok AI generated summary of reactions to the video on X:
"On April 3, Fox News host Laura Ingraham posted an 11-second Instagram video of her attempting the viral Griddy dance to NBA YoungBoy's 'Right Foot Creep,' dressed in a yellow cardigan and joined by a friend. Her recent Texas A&M freshman daughter, Maria Caroline, convinced her to try it for fun."
"While Instagram users gave it over 30,000 likes, X reactions focused on cringe mockery—like calling it the 'stiffest Griddy ever'—and contrasts to Ingraham's earlier barbs at LeBron James, Kamala Harris, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for their dancing."

Ingraham got called out for embracing Black culture and hip hop when it suits her, but vilifying Black people and rap music for profit on her Fox News show.
On Facebook, The Minority Take shared:
"'SHUT UP AND DRIBBLE.' That’s what Laura Ingraham told Lebron James, but today she’s on national TV doing a viral Black dance—and doing it wrong. It’s the MAGA TRUTH: they hate the people, but love the culture."
"Critics were quick to bring up Ingraham’s infamous 'Shut up and dribble' comment directed at LeBron James in 2018. The Hard Truth being shared online is that MAGA media figures often target Black individuals for their political opinions while simultaneously 'using' Black culture to appear relatable or 'hip' to a younger audience."

They added:
"The dance aired during the same week Ingraham began questioning if President Trump was 'fully briefed' on the risks of the Iran war. Some analysts suggest these 'viral moments' are used to soften her image as she begins to break away from the administration’s 'Stone Age' military rhetoric."
"The hashtag GriddyGate began trending on April 2, 2026, with users pointing out that the administration is 'whacking away' at Black voting power through redistricting while their media surrogates are on TV 'impersonating' the culture they are systematically undermining."
On X, one person noted:
"I distinctly remember her making fun of Kamala dancing."
In August of 2024 during the presidential campaign, Ingraham criticized then Democratic candidate and Vice President Kamala Harris for dancing during a segment of Ingraham Angle.
When she shared a clip on her Instagram, Ingraham wrote:
"Kamala Harris can dance and meme all she wants, but it won’t put food on the table or pay tuition bills."
"Americans need real leadership, not empty gestures."

When popular X account Wu Tang is for the children asked:
"Wtf is Laura Ingraham doing"
...more than one user threw Ingraham’s Harris diss back at her.




Others had their own thoughts on Ingraham’s performance.
Oddly, Ingraham has never used her platform to critique MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's dancing.
One wonders why.
