More Black Love in 2020! DeSean Jackson recently proposed to his girlfriend of six years Kayla Phillips and she said yes! Phillips shared the news on her private Instagram account Wednesday, with a black-and-white photo of the pair in an embrace, her brand new engagement ring in full view.

“May God bless our union,” Kayla captioned the photo. “I pray God’s Will will be done & we’ll walk in obedience to His Word. I SAID YES🙏🏽💍🙌🏼 #engaged”

The mom of three, who shares is mother to Jackson’s two sons DeSean Jr. and Jacey as well as her oldest son, Tru, from a previous relationship, also shared her happy news on her YouTube channel ImKaylaPhillips. She’s since made that video private, but Hollywood Unlocked grabbed some clips which they posted that show the actual moment Jackson proposed.

Apparently the engagement is a month old now — as the big moment happened the night of Phillips birthday, July 17th. She originally had no plans for her birthday and at the last minute decided to vlog the night, which is how she ended up with footage of the proposal. The footage she captured includes some moments from her birthday dinner where DeSean gifted her with a beautiful watch, followed by some indoor golfing. DeSean got creative while Kayla was up to tee, pretending to place the ball on the tee and instead getting down on one knee to pop the question.

The pair have kept their relationship pretty private over the years but Jackson never shies away from recognizing his love on special occasions like her birthday and Mother’s Day.

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?
