Dumping the Trump Brand – TJ Maxx and Marshall’s join dumping Trump

Poor Ivanka Trump – she just can’t get a break marketing off her Dad’s name. The issue isn’t so much her, or her products…It’s the sleaze level of trying to capitalize on her Dad’s position.

Goodbye, Ivanka!

 

T.J. Maxx tells employees to hide Ivanka Trump merchandise and toss signage in the trash

Things are spiraling downward for First Daughter Ivanka Trump’s fashion business.

In the past week, several retailers have announced that they will no longer be selling her clothes, and now the New York Times reports that retailers T.J. Maxx and Marshalls have both decided to stop making Trump’s clothes a featured brand at their outlets.

The Times obtained a copy of a note sent to T.J. Maxx and Marshalls employees from parent company TJX Companies that instructed them to “not to display Ivanka Trump merchandise separately and to throw away Ivanka Trump signs.”

“We offer a rapidly changing selection of merchandise for our customers, and brands are featured based on a number of factors,” a TJX spokesperson told the New York Times.

So far, retailers Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, Belk, Jet, and ShopStyle have announced plans to discontinue sales of Ivanka Trump’s fashion line. President Donald Trump on Wednesday took to Twitter to publicly lash out at Nordstrom for treating his daughter “so badly.”

 

St. Kitt and Nevis Athlete Kicked Out of Olympics… For spending Night With Wife

Dang! It appears in St Kitt and Nevis your wife is on the list of “banned substances!

Not going to get any of that “Sexual Healing” and still run…

London 2012: Kim Collins axed from 100m by St Kitts for meeting wife

Lane four stood empty during the final heat of the men’s 100m in the Olympic Stadium on Saturday, after the former world champion Kim Collins was dropped by St Kitts and Nevis for spending the night in a hotel with his wife.

A furious Collins announced via Twitter that he would not be competing for his country again, claiming that his appearance at the Pan American Games in Mexico last year would be his last. “For those who saw me run in Mexico. That’s the last time I represent my country,” he said.

A spokesman for his home Olympic committee said Collins, who was competing at his fifth Olympic Games, would not participate in the 100m as a disciplinary measure after he flouted team rules by leaving the athletes’ village without permission.

The spokesman said Collins had not been in the camp for “the last couple of days” and is believed to have been staying with his wife in a hotel.

Earlier Collins had posted a message on Twitter, reading: “My fans. I won’t lie. Won’t be running later tonight.” Another message read: “Even men in prison get their wives to visit.”

The 2003 world champion, who is 36, carried his country’s flag at the Olympic opening ceremony just over a week ago. Collins finished seventh in the 2000 Olympic 100m final and sixth in Athens in 2004. He won bronze in the 100m at last year’s world championships in Daegu,South Korea, but with a season’s best time of 10.05sec would have found it difficult to earn a place in Sunday’s final.

Collins remains as an entrant in the 200m and 4x100m but team officials said they were unable to confirm whether he would compete.

Collins is the second of an original seven-athlete Olympics team from St Kitts and Nevis to be disciplined.

The sprinter Tameka Williams, the only woman on the team, was sent home last weekend for a potential drug violation despite not testing positive for a banned drug.

The St Kitts and Nevis Olympic Committee said Williams had acknowledged using a substance which was “clearly outside the medical code”.

 

Glenn Beck Dumped By NYC Radio Station WOR

Perhaps the beginning of the end…

Glenn Beck dropped by New York’s WOR radio station over poor ratings, replaced by Mike Gallagher

Glenn Beck may be one of the hottest talk show hosts in the country, but he apparently left New York‘s WOR cold.

WOR (710 AM), one of the city’s two biggest talk radio stations, said this morning it is dropping Beck’s syndicated show as of Jan. 17 and replacing him with a familiar New York name: Mike Gallagher.

“The reason is ratings,” said WOR program director Scott Lakefield. “Somewhat to our surprise, the show wasn’t getting what we wanted.”

Beck, whose style is sometimes off-center and who hosted a well-publicized national rally in D.C. last year, has been seen as one of the rising conservative radio and TV talk stars.

What was that line from the Frank Sinatra Song?

If you can’t make it there, you can’t make it anywhere?
