Unknown Rapper Thot King Pleads Guilty To Producing Child Porn

Not much of a rap fan anymore, so I personally am not familiar with struggle rapper “Thot King” or any of his work, but apparently the Feds are.

Thot King is likely to spend the next 15-30 years in the can for producing not only music no one has likely heard, but also child pornography.

According to MediaTakeOut:

A rapper named ‘THOT KING’ is on his way to prison – for a VERY LONG TIME. Last year Columbus rapper THOT KING, gov’t name Eric Durell (24), was arrested in August 2015 and charged with multiple counts of child pornography.

Yesterday, the THOT KING plead guilty to conspiracy to produce child pornography.
After receiving a tip from an underage prostitute, investigators say they found numerous videos produced by THOT KING online.

Girls in the videos, some of whom are underage, are shown in various states of undress and performing explicit acts. According to prosecutors, THOT KING posted the explicit videos on social media sites and advertised DVDs for sale, and paid membership to various websites.

Authorities say that THOT KING promotes himself online as a rapper and a pornographer. At least one of his explicit videos contained girls as young as 16 years old.

THOT KING faces a mandatory minimum sentence of 15 years in prison, but he could face a maximum of 30 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

Disgusting animal. Good riddance and hopefully he will be someone’s Thot King in prison! ✌

Google And Facebook Battling Terrorist Groups Online

For years, Islamic terror groups like ISIS and their followers have used the Internet and social media to recruit and spread propaganda, but now the tech giants are exploring new ways to fight back.

Google’s Alphabet parent company GOOG has partnered with Facebook FB and Twitter TWTR to sponsor three experiments that will use videos to counter terrorist propaganda spread on their sites, the Wall Street Journal reports.

The anti-terror ads target Muslim teens and young adults with different kinds of anti-radical messaging to see which works best at diffusing disaffected people before they’re radicalized.

Twitter confirms the projects have been in the works since late 2013.

“We partnered with respected organizations such as People Against Violent Extremism (PAVE) and the Institute for Strategic Dialogue to empower credible non-governmental voices against violent extremism,” Twitter spokesperson Nu Wexler tells Fortune. “We also attended government-convened summits on [common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVE)] hosted by the White House, the Australian Attorney-General’s Department, the UK government, the French prime minister, the European Commission, and the United Nations.”

Post-Convention Poll: Hillary Clinton Tops Donald Trump by Nearly 10 Points

Hillary Clinton emerges from her party’s convention in Philadelphia with a restored lead over Donald Trump, having earned a 7-point convention bounce, according to a new CNN/ORC Poll.

In a two-way head-to-head matchup, Clinton tops Trump 52% to 43%, and in a four-way matchup including third party candidates Gary Johnson and Jill Stein, Clinton leads 45% to 37% with Johnson at 9% and Stein at 5%.

Besides improving her standing against Trump, Clinton’s convention appears to have boosted the share of Americans who think her policies will move the country in the right direction (from 43% before either convention to 48% now), while Trump’s right direction number held roughly steady following the back-to-back political gatherings in Cleveland and Philadelphia.

Further, a majority of Clinton’s backers now say their vote is more to show support for her than to oppose Trump, a sharp shift since early May. Back then, 48% said their vote was one of support for the former secretary of state, 58% say so now. While Trump also improved his numbers on that metric, his voters are more evenly divided, with 47% saying they’re backing him to show support and 50% saying it’s more to oppose Clinton.

More of Clinton’s backers also say they are certain to support her come November: 44% of registered voters are Clinton supporters who say their mind is made up, while 36% say they are solidly behind Trump. Only about 16% of voters say their minds could change in the 99 days left between now and Election Day.
