Derick Dillard: I"m Not Unemployed! I"m a Full-Time Trump Supporter!

Back in November of 2017, Derick Dillard was fired by TLC after directing a transphobic tirade at fellow network star Jazz Jennings.


It’s the sort of thing people get fired for, so Derick took his lumps like a man, confessed to wrongdoing, and moved on.



Just kidding, he threw a tantrum and convinced Jill Duggar to quit the show along with him.


So now the Dillard household is without a source of income.


But fear not, because Derick is one of those people who are convinced that politicians who hate poor people are totally gonna make an exception for them.


You know the type – they haven’t worked in 6 months, but instead of seeking employment, they spend their days washing the egg yolks off their hand-painted Trump sign because being white is more important than having a pot to piss in.


Anyway, while most of the family kept mum during the 2016 election, Dillard’s love of Trump has been the stuff of many an outspoken social media post.



Derick posted the above photo to his Instagram page earlier this week, and his caption has some fans up in arms.


“Israel helping Trump build ‘The Wall LOL,” Derick wrote.


“I’m shocked that someone who preaches love is so racist. This comment reflects poorly on you and your family. I hope the rest of the Duggar family doesn’t support and agree with this comment,” wrote one follower.


“I would love to know why a ‘missionary’ who ‘loves Jesus’ would be promoting pure hatred,” commented another.


“Pretty sure Jesus wouldn’t be building walls, he was out washing the feet of those less fortunate and loving one another. How sad you promote Christianity but won’t follow it.”



Yes, the Duggars’ fan base is overwhelmingly conservative, but Derick may have failed to recognize that many of them are smart enough to understand that Trump is no conservative.


Blowing $ 1 billion on a functionally useless monument to racism, for example, doesn’t constitute sound financial planning.


Anyway, Derick’s not apologizing or deleting the offending post from his page.


That’s just not how D-Dill rolls.


In fact, he’ll probably double-down and use his son for more political “jokes.”


Expect a Bill Maher-caliber gag about how just because one of his two sons is named Israel, that doesn’t mean Derick supports a two-state solution.

Kid Rock: Kaepernick Is Unemployed Because He Sucks, Not Over Protest

Colin Kaepernick is NOT being blackballed by the NFL, he’s unemployed because he’s not a good quarterback — so says Kid Rock.  The rock star has been blasting Kaepernick at his concerts for a while — pissed off over his national anthem…

Derick Dillard: I May Be Unemployed, But I HATE Lazy People!

Are the Duggars a bunch of sluggards?


That’s what many fans think as the famous “Duggar compound” seems to be stacked to the rafters with grown-ass men and women whose ideas about employment are similar to those of the notoriously indolent Kardashian clan.



Don’t get us wrong; there have been short bursts of legitimate employment here and there. 


Before the world found out he was a sex offender, Josh Duggar was a lobbyist in D.C., and most of his siblings have spent some time helping out with the families various business interests.


But at the end of the day, the Duggar family’s bread and butter is reality TV, which means that, as with the Kards, real jobs take a backseat to the task of convincing television audiences that your life is interesting enough to warrant a never-ending documentary.


But hey, that’s their gig, and they do it well, right?


Perhaps that’s why it’s the men who marry into the Duggar family who take the most flak for pretending that they’re living the simple life, when they’re actually cashing in on their names just as shamelessly as Kim and company.



As far as we can tell, Ben Seewald hasn’t had a job in years.


This fact is often pointed out by fans on the Duggars’ social media pages – who later complain that their comments were deleted.


Derick Dillard has spent the past year performing “missionary work” with his wife and child, but as he and Jill were never qualified to be missionaries, many have wondered how much work actually took place.


These days, the Dillards are back in the US, but Derick has announced no future employment plans.


So it’s a bit strange that he’s taken to tweeting about his contempt for laziness:


“‘The hand of the diligent will rule, while the slothful will be put to forced labor.’ -Proverbs 12:24,” Derick tweeted last night.


We’re no biblical scholars, Der, but we’re pretty sure “professional reality TV star” doesn’t meet anyone’s definition of a career field that requires a whole lot of diligence.

Pippa Middleton: Single, Unemployed and Depressed?

Last week, we reported that Pippa Middleton was caught cheating on her then-boyfriend, Nico Jackson.


Not surprisingly, the relationship ended shortly thereafter, and Pippa is now back on the market.



In fact, Kate’s 32-year-old younger sister is unattached in every way, and insiders say being single and unemployed is beginning to take a toll on Pippa.


A new piece in The Daily Mail describes Pippa as “depressed,” as she “finds herself without an established career, without a property of her own, and now without a boyfriend.”


According to the article, Pippa and Nico were planning to get engaged before she was caught bed-hopping with several ex-boyfriends. 


Jackson had reportedly taken a banking job in Switzerland so that he could earn more money and buy the couple a house in London.


Unfortunately, the plan backfired, as the distance proved too much for Pippa to bear.


To make matters worse, Pippa has been fired from two high profile jobs in the past year, failing to make a name for herself as a magazine columnist or as a correspondent for NBC’s Today Show.


Of course, Pippa’s failures are magnified by her famous sister’s successes in life and love.


Having a duchess for a sister might be tough sometimes, but we’re sure when Pippa is ready to find a new job/man, Kate will be happy to help. 


Here’s hoping she plays matchmacker between Pippa and Prince Harry.

Jessa Duggar & Ben Seewald Respond to Claims That They"re Broke, Unemployed

Last week, Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald were criticized for requesting donations from fans on various websites.


Yes, Jessa is expecting her first child, but the thinking amongst many fans is that if she and Ben are that hard up for cash, there are steps they can take that don’t involve asking for handouts.



For example, Ben could get a real job. Then, when the kid is old enough, Jessa could also (Gasp!) seek out some form of employment.



In other words, they do what the people they’re begging for money have probably been doing their whole lives – exchange work for a paycheck.


Jessa and Ben spoke at the Southern Women’s Show in Orlando over the weekend (We guess that’s kinda like work.), where they replied to questions that they’re a couple of broke do-nothings by offering “money saving tips” and talking about how Ben is planning on maybe, one day, eventually settling on a career.


“I like to shop around for bargains,” Jessa said in response to a question about how the couple makes ends meet. “I try to shop mostly consignment and places like that. I shop at Ross a lot. I love Ross.”


Jessa and Ben gave examples of little ways that they’ve cut corners, such as offering their wedding guests an ice cream sundae bar instead of paying for a cake.


“I guess it was a little bit less expensive, or something like that,” said Ben, who we’re guessing didn’t play much of a role in the wedding planning process.


After false-start careers in auto glass repair and acting (seriously), Ben is currently working for Jessa’s dad, Jim Bob, though insiders admit most of his “work” involves teaming up with Jessa to help repair the Duggar family’s image.


The couple says Ben is currently considering seminary school, but that idea is “still in the planning stages.”


So there you have it. Just shop at Ross and serve ice cream at your wedding and you too can avoid real work for the rest of your life!
