Trump-Supporting Beauty Queen Stripped Of Her Miss Michigan Title Over 'Racist, Islamophobic, And Insensitive' Social Media Posts

Gird your loins.

What I'm about to tell you is shocking:

A supporter of President Donald Trump posted insensitive material on Twitter.

Now that you're nice and nestled on your fainting couch...


Twenty year old Kathy Zhu tweeted correspondence with the organizers of Miss World America after they stripped her of her Miss Michigan title when Zhu's racist and islamophobic tweets from 2018 came to light.

Zhu claims that it was her "refusal to try on a hijab," that organizers considered prejudiced. In actuality, Zhu tweeted a photo of a booth at her school encouraging students to try on a hijab voluntarily.

The caption of the photo read:

"So you're telling me that it's now just a fashion accessory and not a religious thing? Or are you just trying to get women used to being oppressed under Islam?"

Zhu also posted pictures of her text correspondence with the state organizers.

They confronted her with another of her tweets that read:

"Did you know the majority of black deaths are caused by other blacks? Fix problems within your own community first before blaming others"

What Zhu failed to mention is that this is true with practically every race in America—more crimes are committed against people of the same race as the criminal.

It wasn't long before more receipts emerged.


People were quick to let Zhu know how they felt.






Yikes.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
