Earlier this year, US comedian, Kathy Griffin, faced huge backlash after she shared a photo of her holding a fake severed and bloody head that bared an uncanny likeness to US President, Donald Trump.

The controversial photo cost the star her contract with CNN and led to a number of shows being cancelled.

A Secret Service investigation soon followed despite the fact that Kathy had made an apology video and asked photographer, Tyler Shields, to remove the pictures.

However, it now look as though the case has been dropped, with the 56-year-old tweeting to say she has been “completely exonerated”.

During a press conference last month, the comedian said she was the first entertainer “in history” to be hounded by a president, and claimed that Trump was using her as a “shiny object” to distract the public from the FBI investigation into Russian collusion.

Despite having put her career in jeopardy, Kathy has vowed to keep criticising the US president.

In the week leading up to pay day, many of us look back of on a months worth of reckless purchases with deep regret and loud sighs.

However, the next time you feel like cringing over that €25.00 JustEat order you made last weekend, just remember that an actual human being spent close to $30,000 of their hard earned cash on a framed sketch by Donald Trump.

Yep.

A (very) amateur drawing of the New York City skyline, crafted by none other then the President himself, sold at auction for an obscene amount of money today.

Nate D. Sanders Auctions in Los Angeles, California, set the starting bid at $9,000, however after 11 bids the 11.5 by 9 inch piece sold for $29,184.

In an official email to The Washington Post, the auction house described the bidders as “Trump admirers, Presidential memorabilia collectors and investors.”

Excuse while we crawl into bed and contemplate the complexity of humankind.

Chrissy Teigen, AKA the undisputed Queen of Twitter, has never been shy about voicing her opinion and now, after years of trolling, Donald Trump has finally blocked her on Twitter.

On Sunday, Trump took to to the micro-blogging site to criticise Republicans that “do very little to protect their President”, to which Chrissy replied: “Lollllll no one likes you.”

A little childish? Perhaps.

A hilarious response? Most definitely.

Following the exchange, Chrissy confirmed that she had in fact been blocked “after 9 years of hating Donald J Trump.”

In February, the model, who campaigned for Hillary Clinton, told  USA Today that she'd been trolling the POTUS for "five to seven years."

"I've been doing this forever, and I take pride in that."

This is not the first time Trump has blocked someone on Twitter.

In fact, Chrissy now joins the likes of author, Stephen King and American comedian, Rosie O'Donnell among many others.

US President, Donald Trump, has effectively banned transgender people from serving in the US military.

He made the announcement in a series of tweets in which he said the decision had been made after consultation with his Generals and military experts.

The President also stated that the military “cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail.”

It looks as though it's a case of one step forward and two steps back, as the new policy completely contradicts the Obama administration's efforts to loosen restrictions on transgender people in the US military.

According to The Independent, Defence Secretary Jim Mattis said that the Pentagon was giving the military another six months to conduct a review to determine if allowing transgender individuals to enlist in the armed services would impact its "readiness and lethality".

If you’ve finally hit breaking point when it comes to Despacito – otherwise known as ‘the track of the summer’ – we have one final instalment of the song before you bow out completely.

And it comes courtesy of POTUS Donald Trump. Well, kind of.

In a mash-up video uploaded to YouTube by CYBOPOD this week, the 45th President of the United States of America can be seen giving his own rendition of the summer stomper.

And frankly, it is nothing short of magnificent.

But enough out of us, let’s hear what Donald has to say for himself.

Earlier this week, Donald Trump travelled to Paris where he met with French President, Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte.

After sharing a handshake with France's first lady, Trump began to compliment her “physical shape” and things got really awkward

"You're in such good shape. She's in such good physical shape. Beautiful," Trump said.

Of course, the inappropriate comments sparked a huge amount of backlash online, with Reebok even stepping in to school the President on how to speak to women.

The sportswear brand compiled a simple guide to help Trump realise the appropriate time to tell a woman: “You’re in such good shape… beautiful.”

As expected, the answer was never, except if you had just found “a forgotten action figure from your youth, unscathed after decades, in your parents’ basement”.

While Trump supporters denounced Reebok’s post, many Twitter users appreciated the sarcastic manner in which the company replied to the comments and the post has since received over 47,000 likes.

President Donald Trump has defended his use of social media, saying it is "modern day presidential."

The US president came under fire this week after tweeting about two American TV hosts.

In one of his usual Twitter rants, Donald called MSNBC hosts, Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough, "crazy" and "physco," and described their behaviour as "unmoored."

Yesterday, he took to Twitter again, and defended his remarks, saying: "My use of social media is not Presidential – it's MODERN DAY PRESIDENTIAL."

Yes, OK Donald…

He added: "The FAKE & FRAUDULENT NEWS MEDIA is working hard to convince Republicans and others I should not use social media – but remember I won the 2016 election with interviews, speeches and social media."

Are the four years over yet?

New Taoiseach Leo Varadkar will have his first official phone call with US President Donald Trump today.

The call is set to come in around 4pm today.

This will be Varadkar's first official phone call with the US President since taking over the reins from Enda Kenny as Taoiseach. 

The call comes as the POTUS has been given the green light to introduce his travel ban.

According to CNN, the US Supreme Court is 'allowing the ban to go into effect for foreign nationals who lack any "bona fide relationship with any person or entity in the United States."'

The ban has been reinstated until autumn.

So, James Corden has never been shy about discussing his political views.

The Late Late Show host often uses his platform to speak about his dissatisfaction with the Trump administration and on Tuesday night he blasted the US President for his ignorant stance on the HIV/AIDS crisis.

Following the news that six members of the Presidential Advisory Council on HIV/AIDS resigned in protest of Trump's lack of interest, James took it upon himself to educate his viewers about the seriousness of the situation.

Speaking to his audience, both in studio and at home, James said: “He [Trump] has proposed changes to healthcare, which if they were to happen, would devastate all marginalised American's who are living with HIV and AIDS.”

“I looked up some stats today. More than 1.1 million people in the US live with HIV and AIDS and of those, nearly 60 per cent are unable to access life-saving medications”

“That's not to mention the 36.7 million people worldwide who live with HIV, of whom nearly 2 million are children under the age of 15.”

But, in true James Corden fashion, the British comedian has came up with quite a humorous solution for Trump's ignorance.

Explaining how the film Philadelphia inspired him to care about the disease, James suggested that it may do the same for Donald Trump.

“Maybe Donald Trump doesn't care because he's never seen Philadelphia. In fact I'm almost certain that's what it is.”

Convinced that Tom Hank's Oscar-winning performance would ignite something inside the president, James decided to send 297 copies of the 1993 film to his home in Mar-a-Lago, Florida.

Check out the full, clip below.

Well played James, we just hope it works.

Katy Griffin will not return as co-host of CNN's annual New Year's Eve program after photos were released of the comedian holding a bloody head resembling that of Donald Trump.

In a statement, the network said, "CNN has terminated our agreement with Kathy Griffin to appear on our New Year's Eve program."

The images sparked huge controversy online with many accusing the comic of taking the joke too far.  

Donald Trump also weighed in, saying the joke was particularly offensive to his 11-year-old son, Barron. 

Kathy then took to Twitter to apologise for her actions admitting, ''I went too far. I was wrong.''

In the video she said: "The image is too disturbing. I understand how it offends people… I get it."

"I beg for your forgiveness. I went too far. I made a mistake, and I was wrong."

The comic was also dismissed by a casino in New Mexico where she was scheduled to perform her stand-up show on July 22.

We're well used to the current Trump administration using 'alternative facts,' but now the POTUS is using alternative words in his statements. 

Taking to Twitter last night, President Trump posted a cryptic tweet that left his 31 million followers scratching their heads.

Twitter has been speculating what the POTUS means in his vague statement. 

Many think that he meant to say 'press coverage' but spelt it wrong, but there has been no confirmation from the White House about the tweet. 

Here are a few of the best reactions:
