On a recent episode of NPR’s podcast “Embedded,” Bill Pruitt, a former producer of Donald Trump’s long-running reality television show, “The Apprentice,” discussed Trump’s behavior, insisting Trump regularly made “unfathomably despicable” racist comments on the set. Pruitt has previously said that there are tapes from the filming of the show in which Trump is caught making racist comments. For the first time he elaborated on the specifics of those comments, saying they were “about African-Americans, Jewish people, all of the above.”
Other former producers and contestants on the show, which Trump hosted for 14 seasons, have echoed the claim. Chris Nee, another former producer, said she regularly heard Trump use the N-word, while Tom Arnold recounted hearing Trump make a slew of racist and derogatory comments, even insulting his own son. Producers, other staff and contestants on the show signed nondisclosure agreements which bar them from discussing what exactly happened on the set and the show’s creator, Mark Burnett, remains a loyal Trump confidant. He has stated multiple times that all the show’s tapes are contractually confidential and he will not “give them up.”
She did not want to move, or to speak. She wanted to rest, to lean, to dream. She felt very tired.

More than slightly depressed today bc I haven’t been taking meds like I’m supposd to—left dop kit in car ALL THE WAY outside and consciously failed to retrieve it on day 1, forgot on day 2, pig-headedly wouldn’t go get it on day 3, and officially didn’t care on day 4. Day 4 without Zoloft is never a good day and I know better, so, I made JD watch me as I put a week’s worth of prescriptions in my daily pill caddy. I am so glad that I only have minor depression/anxiety bc if I had it any worse or, God forbid, a more serious diagnosis, my lack of responsibility for personal health would be disastrous. Here’s where I would admonish a loved one for pulling this shit. #psychmajor #ishouldknowbetter #mentalhealth #stigmaisstoopid #startaconversation #badlisa #Godsavethequeen
I've been having a case of the "tomorrow"s for abt a month now. To drive the point home, God let me forget abt trash day this week. Well played, sir.

Good morning.
Thinking about a sweet little cafe I visited in Paris last June. Someone once said to me “Paris is always a good idea.” I couldn’t agree more❤
Happy Tuesday Xx

Mom says I am finally big enough to walk in a parade for the first time next weekend! But first, I will need a costume to fit in. Time for Mom to start crocheting!

So, ladyboys all around, right? On taxpayers' dimes, natch. Lemme get this right: If you work really hard and do a great job at leading, helping people, and serving others you get to surround yourself with people who are allowed to break ethics rules set up to keep powerful people in check? Right on. Oh, and that public service shtick isn't really necessary if you have enough money or the right kind of speech writers... By the by, Hillary? Woman up and admit that you lost (whether rightly or not, the rules say you lost) and quit making excuses, it makes us girls look bad.
