So there’s a lot going on here. Marques Houston has recently announced his engagement to Miyana Juanita Pinkney, a 19-year-old woman. There has been varying speculation about when they started dating but none of it is confirmed. We just know that he is twice her age. Twitter is pretty outraged by even that fact.

There’s also this wrinkle to the whole thing. She has called Chris Stokes her “dad” for a while now, harping got how close they are. This is quite a development considering the allegations against Stokes in the past and the idea of Houston being with someone she calls a father figure.

It’s all pretty weird and has even had Raz B trending all day.

“Now this is so weird.
This is 38 year old Marques Houston and his 19 year old fiancée, on a double date with her 23 year old sister and her 23 year old husband.
His IG shows they do this a lot.

My question is, what does a 38 year old have in common with a bunch of kids?”

“I lowkey won’t be able to watch Sister sister the same no more cus Marques Houston is almost 40 getting married to a 19-year-old. Nauseated face

What does a person almost 40, have in common with someone that graduated high school 1-2 years ago?!”

“I didn’t know that was Chris Stokes 19 year of daughter Marques Houston was with. This narrative when your throw what Raz-B has been saying about both men all these years into the equation just became much more… weird.”

This week in politics, the vibes are messy, alarming, and straight-up confusing. From late night TV being snatched off the air to vaccine policies getting hijacked, it’s giving “WTF is going on?” Let’s break down the headlines everyone’s talking about inside. First Amendment on the Chopping Block Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show has been pulled from ABC, and Stephen Colbert’s show? Cancelled completely. The official line is murky, but the bigger picture is loud. Free speech is being tested under the Trump administration. While Trump once said he’d “honor” the First Amendment, recent moves suggest he’s working off a remix version that only benefits him. Case in point? The Guardian reports his $15 billion lawsuit against The New York Times. A judge already tossed it out, saying Trump’s claims about “false content” violated federal rules. Still, the fact that these lawsuits and cancellations keep happening has people questioning the future of free expression in America. CDC Shake-Up Sparks Health Concerns Meanwhile, over at the CDC, things are getting political fast. Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has basically turned the agency upside down, firing all 17 members of the vaccine advisory committee and replacing them with appointees that include vaccine skeptics. On top of that, the CDC director is out, high-level staffers are resigning, and decisions about vaccine safety are suddenly more about politics than science. Public health leaders are calling this move dangerous, saying it dismantles independent oversight just when Americans need clarity most. According to California’s government website, they are one of the few states pushing back on the federal government’s stance. California, Washington, and Hawaii aren’t taking it lying down. The states have formed an alliance pushing back on the feds, promising to keep vaccine guidance rooted in science, safety, and transparency. Their health officers are reviewing guidelines from trusted medical groups like the AAP and ACOG to ensure communities still have access to clinically recommended vaccines. Trump & Xi Meet About US TikTok’s Next Chapter And then there’s TikTok. After years of “will they, won’t they?” drama, Trump announced that he and Chinese Premier Xi Jinping approved a deal for TikTok’s U.S. operations. According to BBC, the plan reportedly hands control to a group of U.S. investors, sidestepping a shutdown. Trump called the call with Xi “productive” on Truth Social, and even, teased a face-to-face meetup at the APEC summit in South Korea this fall. From free speech battles to vaccine wars and TikTok drama, this week in politics has us all asking the same thing: WTFGO?
