Tristan Rogers, who played legacy character Robert Scorpio on ABC’s “General Hospital,” died Friday, less than one month after he made a special appearance on the soap opera. He was 79. “The entire ‘General Hospital’ family is heartbroken to hear of Tristan Rogers’ passing,” said Frank Valentini, the show’s executive producer, in a statement. “Tristan has captivated our fans for 45 years and Port Charles will not be the same without him (or Robert Scorpio).” Born in Melbourne, Australia, Rogers’ first foray into performing was in his early twenties and playing drums in a rock band with a group of friends. They weren’t successful so Rogers turned to commercial work

Wild video shows a Southwest pilot doing standardized field sobriety tasks on a jetbridge before eventually being arrested.
Driving while intoxicated is bad enough, but can you imagine getting on a plane where one of the pilots has been accused of having too many beers before clocking in for work? That was the reality for one plane full of people headed to Chicago from Savannah Hilton Head Airport earlier this year, when pilot David Paul Allsop was pulled off the flight after a member of the TSA reported having seen him appear intoxicated before boarding.

Social media bid “adios amigos” as an alleged illegal alien TikToker known for doxxing ICE operations was arrested during a livestream.
Clout chasing came with consequences this week in Los Angeles when attempts to restore law and order, along with national sovereignty, reached the “find out” stage for a TikToker who’d spent too much time “f*ing around” with law enforcement. Tatiana Martinez, an influencer with the Colombian flag in her Instagram bio known for encouraging disruption of immigration enforcement, was seen being hauled out of a Tesla and taken into custody.
“The number of TikTok influencers who are here illegally would shock you,”

A suspected illegal alien was killed after darting onto a freeway to avoid contact with federal immigration officers conducting an enforcement operation at a Home Depot store in Monrovia on Thursday, according to city officials. The man was struck by a passing motorist and taken to a hospital, where he later died.
Monrovia City Manager Dylan Fiek says the man ran from the Home Depot parking lot onto the 210 Freeway and likely was fleeing to avoid detection by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in the city located 20 miles north of Los Angeles.
According to the statement, the Monrovia Police Department was notified of a possible ICE operation
Twanda Willingham is suing the city of Chicago after being shot with a pistol that had been “relinquished to Chicago police at a gun turn-in event,” according to the NRA-ILA.
FOX 32 reported Willingham was shot in August 2023 with a Glock 21 “surrendered months earlier at a Chicago Police Department gun buyback.”
Willingham subsequently filed suit against Chicago, after it was discovered the gun had allegedly “disappeared while in transit between the [location of the buy back event] and a nearby police station—just blocks apart.” [Tweet]
The NRA-ILA noted that lawsuit provided further details on the alleged movement of the gun:
A leftist columnist recently told the New York Times he believes America needs a new Constitution.
During his interview, author and contributing editor of the New Republic, Osita Nwanevu, laid out the reforms he thinks should be proposed when asked to provide the “new Constitution” he believes that nation should have, the Times reported on Thursday.
He stated:
We could start with the thing that I think most Americans think about when they think about the undemocratic nature of our system, a reform that most Americans have supported for a long time, which is dealing with the Electoral College.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will meet with President Donald Trump at the White House on Monday after Trump’s positive meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday.
Trump, who is looking to bring the Ukraine war to a close, took to Truth Social early Saturday morning to announce that he had spoken with Zelensky following the Putin summit in Alaska, and the understanding among all parties is that a peace deal, rather than a ceasefire, must be reached. He also revealed Zelensky is coming to Washington:
Nine Democrat officials pleaded not guilty this week to felony election-fraud charges in one of the most significant ballot-harvesting cases in recent Texas history.
The charges were brought by Attorney General Ken Paxton after a two-year investigation that uncovered what prosecutors describe as an organized scheme to manipulate mail-in ballots in rural South Texas.
Six of the defendants appeared in person at a Pearsall courtroom on Wednesday, while three others joined remotely through Zoom.
Among those charged is Juan Manuel Medina, the former chairman of the Bexar County Democrat Party. Medina’s attorney filed a motion to dismiss the charges, arguing that the prosecution is politically motivated,
For years, Senator Adam Schiff built his career accusing Republicans of corruption while pretending to be a defender of democracy.
Now he stands accused of mortgage fraud in a scandal that underscores not only his hypocrisy but the broader corruption embedded in the Democratic Party.
The Gateway Pundit first broke this story, reporting that Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) Director William Pulte referred Schiff for criminal investigation earlier this year.
In May, Pulte sent the referral to Attorney General Pam Bondi alleging that Schiff falsified bank documents and property records “in multiple instances” to secure more favorable loan terms between 2003 and 2019.
A federal judge on Friday shut down the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) investigation into far-left Media Matters.
US District Judge Sparkle Sooknanan, a Biden appointee, issued an injunction against the FTC and blocked its investigation into Media Matters.
The judge said the Trump Administration illegally retaliated against Media Matters.
“This case presents a straightforward First Amendment violation,” judge Sparkle Sooknanan wrote.
In May, the Federal Trade Commission launched an investigation into Media Matters for America, the far left group that targets conservative media outlets and personalities to put them out of business.
Media Matters for America is funded by the top Democrat Megadonors who value their work.

The U.S. Department of State announced Saturday morning that it was stopping a visa program that allowed residents of Gaza to enter the United States for "medical-humanitarian" reasons. This comes after videos of large groups of Gazans—often decked out in "Palestinian" flags and keffiyehs associated with the terror group Hamas—arriving at airports across the nation began popping up on social media in the last few weeks.
According to this State Department tweet, the program is being paused while officials review the "process and procedures" that have allowed a stream of injured children from Gaza, often accompanied by several family members, into the country.

Rumors by 'The Swamp' 3 replies
Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. shut down rumors about his personal political goals, claiming it's just an effort to drive a wedge between him and President Donald Trump.
In a lengthy post on X, Kennedy addressed the rumors, stating that he wanted to make it crystal clear he has no plans to run for president in 2028 and that his loyalty lies with President Trump, the man who he said has made good on every single promise he's made to Make America Healthy Again. [Tweet]
"The swamp is in full panic mode," Kennedy said.

Alec Baldwin is afraid. Very, very afraid. The actor is riven with fears for the future of the U.S. in the wake of Donald Trump’s successful push to increase federal law enforcement across Washington, DC, embracing the conspiracy theory that the president will use any means to “deflect from his inadequacy” and take control of whatever he can.
In a video uploaded to his official TikTok page, Baldwin suggested Trump would not stop at D.C. before going on to list cities across the U.S. and sporting institutions like the NFL and NBL, opining whether Trump was going to seize and “take them over” too:

There Won't be a Biden Presidential Library

Don’t be disappointed if you’re anxious to attend the Biden Presidential Library’s opening. It almost certainly will never exist. D.C. swampsters are trying to bury the record, hoping the public forgets how bad things were. Its subject will soon be either in the ground or too incapacitated to solicit funding. Biden staffers retaining criminal defense counsel have no interest in a library containing evidence for prosecutors to mine. No reporters from press outlets complicit in enabling chaos are hounding Biden. DOGE revelations testify to his administration's wholesale graft. FBI servers were purged of controversial data, unburdening what had been.
Failed presidential candidate Kamala Harris’ lefty, activist stepdaughter was back to her whiney ways in a new TikTok video — in which she bizarrely claimed to suffer from “climate anxiety.” “I think everything with the environment is really f–king getting to me, and it is — I experience a lot of climate anxiety, like all of us do,” Ella Emhoff ranted in a nearly six-and-a-half-minute long “check in” video posted to her TikTok account Thursday. The 26-year-old sometimes-model and fashion designer, clad in an orange hat bearing the message, “Take off your clothes,” chuckled in the clip, before quickly becoming
Friday on MSNBC’s “The Weeknight,” Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) said that President Donald Trump was a “Kremlin kiss ass” during his Anchorage, Alaska summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Swalwell said, “If you’re a Republican in Congress, you just saw a Kremlin kiss ass in the president of the United States. Somebody who squandered an opportunity to confront a ruthless dictator who is killing innocent children and kidnapping innocent children every single day. I don’t know what this meeting accomplished other than taking the Epstein files and inflation out of the news, but you have meetings like this to achieve objectives.
FBI Director Kash Patel says he was “blown away” by what he uncovered inside a hidden “burn room” at the bureau’s headquarters, a locked area in the Hoover Building containing thousands of documents tied to the Russia-collusion hoax and other politically sensitive matters.In an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity on Thursday, Patel described finding not just one, but seven government “burn bags, ”specially designed containers for destroying classified evidence, along with hard drives belonging to former FBI leaders, including James Comey, Andrew McCabe, Peter Strzok, and Lisa Page.
“I was blown away,” Patel said.
Retired British Army Colonel Richard Kemp has said the primary risk the UK faces is from an alliance “of the hard left and Islamist extremists” and that he fears civil war because politicians are too myopic to take action.
Colonel Richard Kemp, a high-profile Infantry officer who fought counter insurgency on home ground in Northern Ireland in the 1980s, served in the Gulf war and Bosnia, commanded an Afghanistan operation, and who had political-facing senior roles in Westminster including the powerful Joint Intelligence Committee and the Cabinet Office crisis centre COBRA, has expressed concern about unrest and even civil war potentially breaking out in Britain.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom had an embarrassing rally on Thursday to promote his push for redistricting in his state to help the Democrats.
In addition to not having many people at the rally, Newsom was also upstaged by the Border Patrol making arrests nearby. He flipped out, assuming it was meant as a message to him. He was also upset that someone sent him a "Trump 2028" hat, which he claimed was evidence that President Donald Trump was going to run again. It was a festival of Trump Derangement Syndrome on display.

Three people were killed and eight others wounded when multiple gunman opened fire inside a Brooklyn restaurant around closing time Sunday morning.
Officers responded to calls of a shooting inside Taste of the City Lounge at 903 Franklin Avenue in the Crown Heights neighborhood just before 3:30 a.m., NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said at a press briefing.
The fatal victims were identified as three men, who were 27, 35, and an unknown age.
The eight wounded victims were transported to local hospitals. However, their conditions were not disclosed.
United States District Court for the District of Columbia Chief Judge James Boasberg is well known to this audience for ordering illegal aliens to remain in the United States despite the Trump administrations clearly lawful effort to deport them under the Aliens Enemies Act. Yet, he also has an important connection to the Russiagate hoax that reveals the scope of the lawfare superstructure that is trying to dismantle MAGA, which I document in my book Breaking the Law. Just like the rest of the Russiagate conspirators, Boasberg ought to be investigated for it.
