In a news flash aired on Don Lemon’s show tonight, CNN announced that Jericho, Cecil’s brother, “who is also a lion,” was killed in yet another unfortunate hunting incident.

The Adobo Chronicles® appreciates CNN for confirming the news about Jericho’s mortal life, and that he was indeed a lion just like his brother Cecil.

DONALD TRUMP: ‘I USED TO BE BLACK’

Leave a comment

imageNEW YORK, New York  (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – Realizing that he needs black voters to seal the Republican presidential nomination and eventually the presidency,  Donald Trump today  told reporters that he ‘used to be black.’

He revealed for the first time  that as a young child, he suffered from vitiligo, a chronic skin condition characterized by the skin losing pigment. It occurs when skin pigment cells die or are unable to function.  It is the same condition that the late Michael Jackson reportedly suffered from.

Trump absolutely needs the black vote after he angered Hispanic voters when he said during his presidential bid announcement that Mexico is sending   to America immigrants who are rapists, drug addicts and criminals.

A total of 17.8 million blacks voted in the 2012 presidential elections.   Some 66.2% of eligible black voters voted, compared to 64.1% of non-Hispanic whites who did so.

Upon hearing of his revelation, Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson challenged Trump to release a copy of his birth certificate to prove that he really was black.

Canadian Ted Cruz and Cuban Marco Rubio joined Carson in demanding that Trump show proof of this race.

NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles®) – Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton just released her first official political  ad and already, pundits are praising it as one of the most brilliant campaign ads America has ever seen.

In the ad, Clinton talks about her late mother Dorothy  who brought her up in a loving family.

Dorothy was abandoned by her parents at age 8 and began to work for a family at age 14.  It was then that she saw what it is like when parents love and provide for their children and families.

Clinton then looks straight into the camera, saying that it is because of her mom and all the other Dorothy’s in America, that she is running for president.

With this ad, she won the hearts and minds (and most likely the votes) of the 1, 166,352 Americans with the first name Dorothy.

Dorothy is the 30th most popular name in the U.S., according to the  website howmanyofme.com

Maybe, Clinton’s next ad will talk about her husband Bill, and address all the William’s in America of which there are 3,943,457 (the 6th most popular first name in the U.S.
