A member of the Boston City Council who describes herself as “the first formally undocumented African-born immigrant & first Muslim elected in the city of Boston” has reportedly upset her leftist colleagues because of her vehement rhetoric, a source said according to Fox News. A Boston city hall employee told Fox News Digital that the city council meetings featuring Councilwoman Tania Fernandes Anderson are filled with “swearing, yelling and screaming” as well as calls to “create a revolution” to combat “systemic racism.” “I can’t even call you cowards because desperation deserves mercy. Your votes here sometimes are racist … I am here to represent every black woman and man in the community … What the f*** do I have to do in this f***ing council to get respect as a black woman,” Fernandes Anderson yelled during a meeting in August 2023, the outlet noted. She has also said, “We should dismantle the White backdrop [in America] and we should restructure it so that it’s welcoming,” according to Fox News. “Don’t come for me, because if you want smoke, you’ll get smoke. I’m not afraid of any of you,” Fernandes Anderson said in a March 2024 meeting. “It’s a threat. I feel like it’s a threat,” the source told Fox News. “People are intimidated by her. And that intimidation does work,” the source claimed, adding that city council members capitulate because “no one want[s] to disagree with Tania because she’s unpredictable … The last thing someone wants is to be labeled as a racist in this city.” Within days of the Oct. 7 Hamas massacre of more than 1,200 Israelis, Fernandes Anderson offered a resolution that called the massacre a “massive military operation,” called Hamas a “militant group,” and accused Israel of “war crimes,” the Boston Herald reported. Fernandes Anderson also reportedly called Israelis “political animals.” In October 2022, Fernandes Anderson was harshly criticized for suggesting that the birthday of Mahsa Amini — the 22-year-old Kurdish-Iranian woman who was accused of not properly covering her hair and was taken into custody by Iran’s morality police, dying three days later — be named Boston’s official Hijab Day. One Twitter user responded, “I can’t believe you dare to use Mahsa Amini’s name to promote your agenda. How dare you! She was murdered because she didn’t have a proper hijab. Hijab is not an expression of free choice. So, respectfully, consider your own birthday as Boston Hijab Day.” LICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP Just after Fernandes Anderson was elected to the Boston City Council in November 2021, she hired her sister and son to paid positions on her city council staff. She later admitted to violating the conflict of interest law. She also initially refused to swear the oath in which elected officials pledge their allegiance to the United States; she later had to redo the oath. She called criticism of her behavior “anti-immigrant racist vitriol.” Fernandes Anderson also supervised a city council budget proposal cutting roughly $1 million in funding for police and veterans that was rejected by Boston’s Democratic mayor.

At 21 years old, Abi Carter has always dreamed of winning American Idol. Still, even when she became a fan-favorite on the show, she found it hard to imagine it would ever happen. Fans will likely find this surprising considering how much all three judges couldn’t stop raving during her audition. In it, she delivered a beautiful rendition of What Was I Made For by Billie Eilish. Still, even when Abi found herself in the top three, she didn’t think she would actually win. Best of all, she was okay with that, noting that even making it that far felt like a victory in her book. That’s why, when she was announced the winner of American Idol for its 22nd season, she couldn’t keep standing! “I expected them to call [runner-up] Will Moseley, it just made sense to me,” Abi shares. “So to hear my name called, it really was not a scenario that I had pre-thought about.” Abi Carter Still Can’t Believe She Won American Idol As disappointing as this loss must be for Will, there are certainly no hard feelings. In fact, it seems that the two of them will remain friends, even now that the show has ended. After the season finale, Abi shared a sweet photo of her and Will enjoying breakfast together. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Abi Carter (@abicartermusic) “Breakfast at the airport after the craziest night of our lives,” Abi writes. “SEE YOU SOON NEW YORK!!” As Abi continues to process her unforgettable win, she’s looking toward her future in music — and the record deal and $125,000 that comes with it. “I think the hardest thing going into this career is wanting to please everybody, and I feel like when I’ve written songs in the past, I’ve wanted to do something that I thought would be popular,” she explains. “I think what I want to do going forward is being more in line with myself artistically and kind of wanting to use music as therapy rather than my goal being for something to be popular.” You can find the source of this story’s featured image here!

We each have our own unique taste in music — this even includes a horse named Pretty Runaway. In fact, at 7 years old, this horse knows exactly what she’d rather listen to from her stable in Ontario. Pretty Runaway is given the chance to enjoy her favorite music thanks to the folks at the woman-run farm where she lives. While some of the workers here enjoy country music, this horse would much rather rock out! That’s right — you won’t find Pretty Runway listening to country or pop hits. Instead, you’ll often find her headbang to some of the best songs the metal and rock genres have to offer. In turn, this “super calm, really sweet mare” has also earned the title of “metalhead.” As a result, she’s become quite the hit on social media. View this post on Instagram A post shared by CBC (@cbc) “The entire barn just looks at her, thinking ‘oh my gosh, she’s doing this again,'” Autumn Purdy, the horse’s groom jokes, adding, “She is the worst neighbor.” Clearly, Pretty Runway is the life of the party at this farm. But the folks who keep these animals safe certainly aren’t her only fans. Animal lovers from all around the world can’t get enough of this musically inclined creature. Headbanging Horse Loves Rocking Out to Her Favorite Metal Music “Of course, her favorite is Pantera. That horse has good taste,” a fan of Pretty Runaway notes in the comments with another adding, “Me if I was reincarnated as a horse.” Some have voiced concern over how Pretty Runway reacts to the music. Autumn, however, is happy to reassure us she’s having a great time. “It takes knowing the horse personally to know the difference between her being stressed and her having a good time,” Autumn says. “She’s genuinely happy, she’s extremely well taken care of, she’s not a stall-bound stress horse.” You can find the source of this story’s featured image here!
