Rachel Maddow Cries, Can"t Finish Report on Immigrant Kids
Rachel Maddow tried.
She really did.
Toward the end of her program on Tuesday night, the MSNBC commentator tried to read a breaking news update about the immigration crisis in America.
But the pundit grew overwhelmed by emotion while reading a report about how babies and toddlers were being taken away from their parents and placed by the government in special holding areas/shelters.
"This is incredible," Maddow said to open this segment, quickly reading a news update from the Associated Press and then relaying it ti viewers as follows:
"Trump administration officials have been sending babies and other young children…"
She could not maintain her composure, however, not in the face of the latest atrocity committed by this administration.
"Oh, hold on," she said midway through her sentence.
Maddow attempted to continue, but she ended up concluding her show and introducing the host of the following program, Lawrence O"Donnell, who was live in Brownsville, Texas.
After the emotional footage webt viral, Maddow took to Twitter to apologize for the breakdown and share an outline of what she intended to say during the broadcast.
"Ugh, I"m sorry," she wrote in a series of tweets, adding:
"If nothing else, it is my job to actually be able to speak while I"m on TV. What I was trying to do– when I suddenly couldn"t say/do anything – was read this lede."
Maddow then shared the entire story with her followers.
"Again, I apologize for losing it there for a moment. Not the way I intended that to go, not by a mile," Maddow said to wrap up her mea culpa.
As you might expect, the incident has drawn sympathy from Liberals and mockery from Conservatives.
Some believe Maddow was being sincere and can absolutely relate to the heartache she is experiencing while learning that young kids are being torn away from their parents at the U.S. border…
… while others are scoffing at her waterworks and using them as an example of how lame bleeding-heart Democrats can be.
We"re not here to judge, really. Just to pass the clip along because it"s now a part of the national discourse.
Check it out for yourself above.

Farrah Abraham Shares Shower Selfie of Daughter, Can"t Stop Failing at Motherhood
Farrah Abraham is … she"s just so … it"s like she"s always …
Look, she"s just a lot, OK? She"s a lot to handle, she"s got a lot going on, and it takes a lot to comprehend how she even exists in this world.
Lately — or, all right, for nearly the entire decade or so that she"s been famous — it seems like she"s really been intent on being the biggest mess she can be, and we appreciate that.
Except her wild and crazy decisions have had quite the impact on her daughter, Sophia … and that"s not so cool.
In the past few months, Farrah"s been making increasingly poor parenting choices, so now seems like as good a time as ever to do a retrospective on her biggest fails, right?
Buckle up, because this one"s going to hurt.

Jazz Jennings Previews Upcoming Surgery: "I Can"t Believe I’m Gonna Have A Vagina!"
Forgive the rather obvious pun, but…
… Jazz Jennings is rather jazzed about her upcoming surgery.
(We’re very sorry, but the terrible play on words was just sitting right there, you know?)
The TLC reality star, who anchors a series titled “I Am Jazz,” used her personal YouTube account late last week to preview a rather giant procedure currently scheduled for June 26.
It will officially, technically, medically turn her from a male to a female.
“I am so looking forward to it. I have been ready for this my entire life,” the transgender 17-year says in her video, speaking, of course, about gender reassignment.
This has been a major theme on her aforementioned series, which debuted in July of 2015.
In this same video, Jennings explains that she has decided to be open about the surgery in hopes that it will educate people both inside and outside of the transgender community.
And she’s very explicit in talking about what it will entail.
“I’m gonna have new genitalia,” she says. “Like penis to vagina! That’s some serious sh-t, y’all! I can’t believe I’m gonna have a vagina!”
Jennings has long been an advocate in the LGBT community.
She has found herself in the headlines over the past few months because Derick Dillard, who appeared on Counting On but who has since been fired by TLC, has often mocked and slammed Jennings for the way she lives her life.
“I pity Jazz, 4 those who take advantage of him in order 2 promote their agenda, including the parents who allow these kinds of decisions 2 be made by a child,” Dillard randomly said last fall, adding at the time:
“It’s sad that ppl would use a juvenile this way. Again, nothing against him, just unfortunate what’s on tv these days.”
Jennings never invited this sort of critique and is certainly not interested in Dillard’s pity.
She’s living her best life, thank you very much!
“What an oxymoron… a ‘reality’ show which follows a non-reality,” Dillard previously said, piling on an entire community of people by adding:
“‘Transgender’ is a myth. Gender is not fluid; it’s ordained by God.”
SIGH.
But, hey, if Jazz can take the high road and basically ignore Dillard throughout this nonsense, so can we.
We’ll just focus on her latest video and the surgery about which she can’t stop talking.
“I have been looking forward [to the surgery] forever,” Jazz told us. “Even at a young age, I knew.”
She also says she’s excited for the procedure – but, as you might expect, also a bit frightened.
“Because I started the [testosterone] blockers so early that I never went through puberty…basically the blockers block testosterone in my body so I don’t develop as a male and get a beard, a mustache, a deep voice,” Jennings says.
“That’s why I’ve been able to be so feminine. Because of that, it caused me to be so suppressed that I didn’t have growth in ‘that’ region.”
In conclusion, Jazz goes over what’s about to happen in pretty fascinating detail, even if it may gross out some folks out there:
“Because there was a lack of tissue [down there] they didn’t have enough material to construct the entire vagina, so they’re using a special procedure where they extract my peritoneal lining.
“It’s regenerative, so it will regrow and what not.
“They take that out laparoscopically through my belly button or whatever. They use that and harvest that and use that to make the vaginal canal.
“It’s better because it looks like real vagina tissue and it feels more like real vagina tissue.”
Science, huh?
Pretty amazing.
We wish Jazz Jennings the best of luck.

Jenelle Evans: I Told You! The Show Can"t Go On Without Me!
Jenelle Evans 1, MTV 0.
It appears as if this controversial cable network personality has won her stand-off against producers and executives, following many weeks’ worth of speculation that Evans may be fired from Teen Mom 2.
Such rumors ran wild around the Internet because Jenelle basically initiated her own boycott of the program.
After MTV fired her husband, David Eason, as a result of his many homophobic remarks, Evans refused to film.
She especially took a strong stance against filming the Teen Mom 2 reunion special in New York City last month, refusing to attend unless the network footed the traveling expenses for her and David.
Producers refused. And Evans remained true to her word.
She skipped the taping.
(And, in the process, she missed quite an explosive situation, as Briana DeJesus and/or her sister allegedly brawled on stage with Kailyn Lowry as cameras rolled.)
However, Radar Online now reports that Evans has essentially come out on top in this quasi game of chicken with her bosses:
She WILL be part of the reunion special after all.
How is this possible? Considering the special has already been filmed?
MTV has agreed to send Dr. Drew Pinsky down to North Carolina to film a separate, one-on-one interview with Evans that will be incorporated into the reunion.
The network has stood strong against Eason, though, as he will play no role in this filming.
“MTV arranged for Jenelle to film with just Dr. Drew in North Carolina after she threw a temper tantrum and refused to face the other girls without David,” an insider tells Radar, adding of the arrangement:
“She is scheduled to film on Sunday, but David can’t be anywhere near filming.
“So either he has to leave the house or Jenelle will have to go somewhere else to film.”
Either way, it’s hard not to see this as a victory for Jenelle.
The veteran reality star basically went on strike and dared MTV to fire her…
… and the higher-ups responded by actually heading to down to Jenelle’s hometown just to make sure she remained part of the show.
It’s worth noting that her mother, Barbara Evans, and her son, Jace, both traveled and filmed the Teen Mom 2 reunion in The Big Apple the the weekend of May 19, 2018.
And they may very well have some negative things to say about Jenelle.
But she’s also heard it all before. She can likely handle it.
Just a few weeks ago, Evans got into serious legal trouble and faced major backlash after reportedly pulling a gun on a driver during a fit of road rage.
Once again, chatter swirled after this incident that the famous teenage mother may get canned.
And, just to be clear, this may still end up happening.
She may very well film her reunion interview and then not have her contract renewed.
But even if this ends up being the case, check out the photo gallery and story below:
Evans and DeJesus are already lining up their post-Teen Mom plans:

Kim Kardashian Meets with Donald Trump (And Twitter Can"t Handle It)
Kim Kardashian took up a cause this week that had nothing to do with scantily-clad Instagram photos or unhealthy weight loss methods.
Instead, the reality star met with President Donald Trump.
She actually got a meeting with the Commander-in-Chief in order to discuss the general topic of prison reform and the specific topic of Alice Marie Johnson, a 62-year old who is serving a lifetime jail sentence for money laundering and drug charges.
Kim thinks this is an example of a system that overly punishes certain non-violent offenders.
And she isn"t alone is thinking so.
But this is Kim Kardashian and this is Donald Trump and even if the former had an admirable reason for visiting with the latter, such a get together was clearly going to drive Twitter insane.
As you can see below, social media users did not disappoint with their reactions…

3. All for Alice

Luann de Lesseps: I Can"t WAIT For You All to See Me Get Arrested!
You don"t normally see people this excited about having been arrested.
But most people aren"t Countess Luann.
The Real Housewves of New York City star is teasing what viewers can expect to see of her arrest, and more.
In the video that we have included, Luann de Lesseps teases to Entertainment Tonight about everything that fans can look forward to seeing.
"Wait "til you see the trip in the "Bezerkshires.""
The Berkshires estates are located in Massachussetts and Connecticut.
She even gets specific.
"I mean, the end of the trip."
She expects that the drama will be very entertaining.
And then, of course, Luann teases something a little more significant.
"And then it"s the holidays, so we all kinda know what happens during the holidays."
In case someone somehow missed her meaning, she adds:
"To me."
On December 24 of 2017, Luann was arrested for allegedly trying to trespass into the wrong hotel room while being drunk and disorderly.
Oh, and she may have, uh, kicked a police officer. And then, while in the car, slipped her cuffs. Like an action hero. Or an assassin.
While Luann"s insane arrest video is already available for public consumption, we are very interested to see how it will be covered on RHONY.
Of course, Luann"s brief foray into a life of crime is not the only story that she"s teasing.
"There"s always drama."
If there weren"t, the Real Housewives franchise would not be such an amazing success.
She speaks of her costars and how supportive they have been in the wake of her arrest.
"They"ve been great, but there"s definitely shifts."
As we"ve noted for a while, friendships and factions are not a constant.
"You"re gonna see Bethenny and I get closer, and some of us get … not as close."
For example, Carole Radziwill and Bethenny Frankel are no longer friends. In fact, they seem to be enemies.
Entertainment Tonight mentions that, about a month ago, Luann opened up about how she is recovering following the huge wakeup call that was her arrest.
"I think that people are looking at me now and going, ‘Wow. She just, like, fell down the staircase and she got back out and she"s climbing again.’"
She"s making great strides to turn her life around.
"And that"s how I feel about my life."
Within days of her arrest, Luann checked into rehab.
"I feel like I"m taking control of my life again, and unfortunately I had to go to that extent to turn my life around."
Sometimes, you have to hit rock bottom before you realize that you"re out of control.
"But it"s OK and I"m OK with that."
By the way, Luann stepped out with a dapper man on her arm.
The guy looks like some sort of fusion of Liam Neeson and Jonathan Cheban (no shade!), and they seemed to be getting along well.
That said, Luann says that the two of them are "just friends."
Though she did follow up by saying: "Just friend … for now."
Good for you, Luann.

Fans to Jill Duggar: You Can"t Love Trump AND Latinos!
Jill Duggar is in a tough spot.
She’s committed to both her dense husband, Derick Dillard, and the ultra-conservative values of her upbringing, but at the same time, she seems well aware that the core tenets of both often come into conflict with her compassionate tendencies and her belief in Christian charity.
Jill has attempted to live comfortably in both worlds by distancing herself from Derick’s comments, while simultaneously standing by her man.
She’s implied that she doesn’t share all of Derick’s views, but she also quit Counting On as a gesture of solidarity after he got fired from the show.
Unfortunately, it seems that Jill has struck a compromise that pleases no one.
Her more left-leaning fans remain unimpressed by her refusal to speak out against Derick more directly, while her conservative followers feel that Jill is undermining the beliefs she was raised with by suggesting she sometimes disagrees with her husband.
It’s a conflict that keeps resulting in tense debates in the comments of her Instagram page.
And Jill’s latest post has resulted in a full-blown battleground:
Jill posted the above photo yesterday, along with a caption reading:
“Congrats to my little Aivah on her kindergarten graduation!”
She added the hashtag “#proudmadrina,” and many fans pointed out that “madrina” is Spanish for godmother.
The photo comes on the heels of a series of a post in which Derick praised Donald Trump and joked about his eldest son helping to build “the Wall” along America’s southern border.
For obvious reasons, many of Jill’s followers were struck by the sharp contrast of the spouse’s recent social media activity.
And some went so far as to call Jill out for hypocrisy:
“You’re with Latinos but you want that wall to be built… y’all funny as f–k,” wrote one follower.
“Funny how Derick taught Izzy all about the Wall to keep people out, and here you are showcasing your ‘brown’ friends. Oh the hypocrisy,” commented another.
“That whole ‘I can’t be a bigot, cause my bffs neighbors, cousins nephew is gay and I have no problem with him,’ schtick,” remarked a third, adding:
“What mixed messages poor Israel must be getting. Racism at home and facades in public.”
Of course, Jill also found some support from those who agree with her family’s more conservative views:
“Typical liberal hypocrisy, intolerant of others who don’t share their beliefs,” wrote one follower.
“We ‘brown’ people have been in their lives for years now, no hypocrisy,” commented another.
“Everyone is entitled to their own opinions about everything. That’s what makes us all unique.”
Obviously, as is always the case with this sort of thing, nothing was resolved, and no one changed their mind.
And yet, the debate rages on.
We’d say Jill should just avoid posting about politics, but we’re pretty sure that’s what she’s trying to do.
Unfortunately for her, it’s 2018, and literally everything is political.
Watch Counting On online for more from reality TV’s most controversial family.
