Ref: A letter to my Dearest Dad, Dr. George Manneh Weah, President of the Republic of Liberia

Mr. President:

I pen these few words to you with a very high emotion expressed. In so much gratitude, I am out of words to exactly jot how I felt during my wedding, and the way I continue to feel with the level of fatherly love you show me always.

From the very first day, I got into your proximity and to date, you have never ceased to surprise me with your true sense of human. You are a humble, peaceful, thoughtful, and down-to-earth character, which everyone would love to emulate. Yes, you stood by me in everything, everywhere, and anytime!

I pledge my heart to equally commit myself to you by the special grace of Allah; I have made up my mind to always stand up for you and be there for you more equally. For you, my lips cannot cease in appreciating you for nearly everything. Honestly, Allah knows my heart for you more than anyone. Dad, I remain your son and will equally do everything a son does to make his parents (dad & mom) happy.

During my wedding on 12/23/2021, the fatherly love was just too much for me, I am still overwhelmed and joyful.

Most importantly, dad, I feel very proud as a son because, to date, my mother keeps shedding tears since the wedding. My mother is proud that her son from the slum brought up, attracted the Head of State at our wedding; she strongly believes that it is a special grace from Allah only. She is proud as a mother and feels grateful that I am a blessing to the family and many others around us. This dad expresses her gratitude but has shown it in tears. I must state that my mother is proud of the man I have become, never deviating from the training instilled in me. She also knows that you are a great impact on my life and our entire family. Thank you yah, papa.

Lastly, let me end to say, Mr. President, I will honestly remain grateful for everything you have shown me and continue to do.

May Allah grant you goodness in return! Ameen.

Your beloved son,

Kalasco

What President Trump and Kim Jong Un Ate

The historic summit between President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un continued midday Tuesday, as the leaders satisfied their appetites while holding negotiations with a contingent of advisers over a working lunch. The lunch, which followed a 45-minute one-on-one meeting between the leaders earlier in the morning and bilateral discussion with senior aides, was held at the Capella Hotel on Singapore’s Sentosa Island. It was far from an intimate affair, with each leader accompanied by a bevy of senior staff, according to the White House. Joining Trump were Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Chief of Staff John Kelly, National Security Advisor John Bolton, U.S. Ambassador to the Philippines Sung Kim, press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, and Deputy Assistant to the President for Asian Affairs Matthew Pottinger. Kim was accompanied by Kim Yong Chol , the former spy chief and one of North Korea’s chief negotiators, as well as Foreign Minister Ri Yong Ho, former

Snapchat Slammed for Domestic Violence Meme Featuring Rihanna and Chris Brown

If Kylie Jenner ‘s stock-plummeting Snapchat rant didn’t make you delete the app, maybe this will. Over the weekend, Snapchat found itself in hot water after a now-deleted domestic violence meme featuring Rihanna and Chris Brown went viral. The meme, which was an advertisement for the app “Would You Rather,” asked users whether they would prefer to “slap Rihanna” or “punch Chris Brown.” Almost immediately, screenshots of the ad appeared on Twitter, with many criticizing Snapchat for making light of domestic violence. Is it just me, or is this ad that popped up on my Snapchat extremely tone deaf? Like what were they thinking with this? pic.twitter.com/7kP9RHcgNG — Royce Mann (@TheRoyceMann) March 12, 2018 Many considered the ad a mockery of Rihanna’s experience with domestic violence. In 2009, Brown was arrested and charged for physically assaulting his then-girlfriend Rihanna hours before she was to perform at the Grammy awards. Since the incident, Rihanna has spo
