Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's ANNOUNCEMENTS representatives can figure out what is going on. According to Pew Research, ENDORSEMENTS among others, there is great hatred towards Americans by large segments of the Muslim population. Most recently, a poll from the Center for Security ADS Policy released data showing "25% of those polled agreed that violence against Americans here in the United States is justified as a part of the global jihad" and 51% of those polled, "agreed that Muslims in America should have the choice of being governed according to Shariah."

  • Conan O'brien
    Second Place Stars presents… The O’Brien Hourly Bonus 1 Perhaps you know him from his show on TBS or perhaps you have been a devout follower since the days of Late Night with Conan O’Brien. Or maybe you have no idea who this red- headed person in a suit is (in which case, I pity you). Either way, test your knowledge of Conan and the various late night shows he has been affiliated with. Even if you don’t know a single thing about Conan, there may be some questions you may still know the answer to. The number in the brackets at the end of the question represents how many points each question is worth. But in the end, your answers will be graded on a 15 point scale if you don’t use the internet or a 10 point scale if you do use the internet. Good luck! 1. Before becoming the host for Late Night, Conan was a writer for The Simpsons. This episode, written by Conan O’Brien, had a guest appearance by Leonard Nimoy. [1] 2. Before either she or Conan was married or famous and before she played a New York City masseuse or a web therapist, this actress was reportedly more than just “friends” with her fellow Groundling. [1] Several other famous actors had their start on Late Night with Conan O’Brien either as interns or actors. Most of them are still affiliated with the peacock network particularly by its Thursday night comedy line up. Who knew watching television would come in handy one day? 3.

The reactors were set to be among the first built in the U.S. in decades. While the decision will save customers billions in additional costs, customers of the two utilities — Santee Cooper and South Carolina Electric & Gas — may get little to nothing refunded of the billions they’ve already paid for the now-abandoned project.

  • Becca Kufrin Feels ‘
    Celebrity News: ‘Bachelorette’ Becca Kufrin Feels ‘Sick’ When She Finds Out Colton Underwood Dated Friend Tia Booth By Haley Lerner In celebrity news, Bachelorette Becca Kufrin said she felt “sick” after finding out contestant Colton Underwood dated her friend and former Bachelor contestant Tia Booth. On the second week of Kufrin’s season of The Bachelorette, there was already plenty of drama, including when the former NFL player told Kufrin on a group date that he had a short-lived relationship with Booth. According to People.com, on the show, Underwood told Kufrin about his time with her friend in January, “We had a weekend together and we had a good time, but for me the timing wasn’t right to grow what was a spark into a flame. If my feelings were strong enough, I wouldn’t have came on [the show]. I think that from what I know of you, we could build something awesome. We could have the time. Whereas it wasn’t there, moving forward, with her.” Kufrin was shocked by the news, telling the former San Diego Chargers player “I’m not going to lie — I don’t know how I feel about it. “It makes me feel a little bit sick. I’m very attracted to you, I really like where our conversation was on night one and I feel like we had a lot in common, but it’s a very tricky situation. It puts me in a very strange position. It’s just a lot to take in right now.” By the end of the episode, Kufrin did end up giving Underwood a rose, but the issue clearly won’t be put to rest.
