The Rickey Smiley Morning Show kicks off with a sharp look at global and political headlines, starting with President Trump’s announcement of a U.S.–brokered peace deal between the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda—despite skepticism from experts who note that rebel groups weren’t included and conflict remains ongoing. The team also examines concerns over the U.S. benefiting from Congolese minerals while Congolese citizens remain on the American travel ban list. Meanwhile, in a story that stunned listeners, the crew discusses the tragic shooting death of Chicago mother Remika Meeks-Blackmon, with new details showing the alleged shooter was romantically tied to the same man—who shockingly fist-bumped her afterward.
In entertainment, Tamar Braxton’s career is thriving as she signs on to star alongside Taye Diggs in the upcoming Tubi thriller Stepfather. The show also digs into resurfaced accusations against Brian McKnight after his son revealed emotional details about being denied an “I love you” during his battle with cancer. And in lighter but still jaw-dropping news, the crew reacts to NFL quarterback Jameis Winston revealing his family had been burning through $400,000 a month, prompting him to clamp down on spending.
