    Named her son after Langston Hughes and is about to get fucked up by SNAP, the state and the IRS.  She's living the dream.

      IIRC, she may now explode? Watch out for falling mayo.

      Jokes and her case of “revitaligo” aside, I feel bad for her kids and I hope she can stop showboating and publicly tripping for a bit. Go take a long ass vacation Rachael/Nketchi. See a therapist, and help others without making it about you.

    She’s living the “Linda Taylor” Dream.

    The first “Welfare Queen” was a white woman pretending to be black... But trotted out to the public as the “Black Face of Welfare Fraud”

      So, it was really the Blackface of Welfare Fraud?

      If this a troll, ending up in the old grey-bar hotel is the wrong way to do it.

    Imagine risking indictment to get welfare when you’re more than well-off. Eight thousand of it. Seriously.

    And continuing to pretend while she just published a freaking book is a level of moronic that only Jamaica Barbie could hit.

    ...Is it at all possible for The Root to just stop posting stories about her? My outrage towards her burned out a long time ago (some jackass got elected President a year after her first incident) and, well, it’s just sad after sad after sad with this woman. I’m starting to pity her and I really would not like to!

    Is she really newsworthy anymore?

      Agreed, but someone needs to keep an eye on her because when she gets tired of playing this game and not receiving enough attention she’s going to do something worse.

    I don’t care who you are. 15 years for $8k fraud is absurd and unjust.

      That’s why you don’t motherfucking try to defraud the Feds. But you can calm your bleeding heart, she’s not going to end up with 15 years.

      Putting someone in prison for any length of time over a $300/month “fraud” is absurd. The possibility that it could be over a decade is monstrous. Such harsh penalties for people on government assistance, while for example military contractors who defraud the government for many millions never see a prison cell.
