Milo Yiannopoulos Tells Piers Morgan He’s ‘Very Ashamed’ of Supporting Trump Following ICE Arrest

In his first interview since being detained by ICE and deported, far-right commentator Milo Yiannopoulos said he is “very ashamed” to have ever supported President Donald Trump.

Yiannopoulos joined Piers Morgan on Piers Morgan Uncensored this week to discuss his detention by ICE agents in Louisiana on Thursday. Yiannopoulos has since been deported back to the United Kingdom.

The right-wing provocateur told Morgan:

To think that the promise and hope and joy and the anticipation of Trump 2016 could, sort of, over the course of 10 years, collapse into this ugly, warmongering, whole mentally ill heap of crazy – with some of the most unstable and lunatic people, seemingly directing the President’s actions! If I had any clue that anything remotely like this was even possible, I would never have got involved in supporting Trump in the first place and I’m very ashamed that I did.

Yiannopoulos admitted to cheering on ICE actions in the past, but he argued they should be focused on violent criminals and drug dealers. (Read more from “Milo Yiannopoulos Tells Piers Morgan He’s ‘Very Ashamed’ of Supporting Trump Following ICE Arrest” HERE)

Mistress Who Turned in Treacherous FBI Spy Charles McGonigal Is Mysteriously Found Dead: Her Haunting Final Texts Revealed… As Grieving Friend Insists She ‘Would Never’ Take Her Own Life

By Daily Mail. The mistress who helped bring down jailed FBI spy Charles McGonigal has died suddenly at her home in South Florida, the Daily Mail can reveal.

Allison Guerriero, 52, passed away hours after sharing a flurry of 75 posts on X on Thursday, including a video of herself walking in the street demanding a spotlight on other Feds and another where she declared: ‘I hate the FBI.’

They were part of her unrelenting years-long campaign, often conducted on social media, against married McGonigal, 58, and her personal war against other senior figures in the agency. . .

Her 18-month affair with McGonigal, the treacherous former head of the FBI counterintelligence in New York, helped blow the lid on his crimes, which included secretly working for Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska. . .

On the day of her death, she posted a selfie video of her strolling in her relatively new hometown of Boynton Beach, Florida, saying: ‘Hey, good morning everybody. Friends and enemies… of course I’m in the middle of all my PTSD from 9/11 but I’m actually breathing a huge sigh of relief…

‘Here’s the problem with Charles McGonigal. You know his name, but you never did before that. You knew Jim Comey’s name. You knew Chris Wray’s name.. all the names that you already know, you know. Why don’t you start looking for the names that you do not know?’ (Read more from “Mistress Who Turned in Treacherous FBI Spy Charles McGonigal Is Mysteriously Found Dead: Her Haunting Final Texts Revealed… As Grieving Friend Insists She ‘Would Never’ Take Her Own Life” HERE)

‘If they wanted me dead, I’d be dead.’ Chilling texts reveal FBI spy’s mistress feared Russian reprisals before sudden death…as cops block release of records amid ‘criminal investigation’

By Daily Mail. The mistress who helped bring down jailed FBI spy Charles McGonigal had confronted the possibility of a Russian hit team before she was found dead in south Florida, the Daily Mail can reveal.

Allison Guerriero, 52, admitted ‘concerns’ in texts but defiantly declared: ‘They don’t scare me.’

The former security consultant died suddenly on Thursday evening according to her devastated 80-year-old father Bill, with no cause of death yet publicly available.

The Daily Mail’s attempt for further specific documented information about the death through a public records request to Boynton Beach police was blocked Tuesday – with a reply indicating an ongoing ‘criminal investigation.’

It stated ‘active criminal intelligence information and active criminal investigation information are exempt from public inspection’ under a Florida statute detailing general exemptions to inspecting and copying public records.

What Is Rep. Thomas Massie’s The Epstein Files Transparency Act II?

Republican Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie has officially put forward a discharge petition on the Epstein Files Transparency Act II (EFTA II).

Massie’s legislation aims to strengthen enforcement of the existing Epstein Files Transparency Act (EFTA) by allowing state attorneys general to sue the Justice Department if it unlawfully withholds, redacts, or delays releasing covered Epstein-related records.

It would also expand access to records for state officials, members of Congress, and victims, including access to otherwise unredacted records in certain circumstances, while establishing penalties for officials who knowingly conceal or falsify covered records.

Before the legislation can reach the House floor, it would need to garner 218 signatures on a discharge petition. If it clears that threshold and passes the House, it would then move to the Senate for consideration before ultimately heading to President Trump’s desk if approved by both chambers.

The push comes as questions continue to mount over the federal government’s handling of Epstein-related records and its past investigation into his Zorro Ranch property in New Mexico. (Read more from “What Is Rep. Thomas Massie’s The Epstein Files Transparency Act II?” HERE)

Iran War Causing ‘Shortfalls’ in Navy Payroll Six Months Into Conflict: Report

The United States’ war with Iran has caused “shortfalls in payroll” in the Navy, according to a report.

The Navy has transferred money from its payroll and other sources to cover the cost of the ongoing contract, The Guardian reported Friday, citing documents and interviews with sources. It comes as the war, which began on Feb. 28, reached its six-month mark and shows no signs of de-escalating.

“The Department of the Navy is actively managing its resources to meet current pay obligations on time,” a Navy spokesperson told The Guardian. “We continue to work closely with Congress to address ongoing operational demands and sustain our personnel and readiness throughout the fiscal year.”

The publication said that one Department of Defense (DOD) memo alluded to “shortfalls in payroll” in Navy funding because the department had been “raiding” them to fund the war.

It added that one official and one navy contractor, both unnamed, said officials had deferred non-emergency maintenance and shore-based facilities because of financial concerns. (Read more from “Iran War Causing ‘Shortfalls’ in Navy Payroll Six Months Into Conflict: Report” HERE)

Pete Hegseth Criticized for Body-Shaming Canadian Cadets

A social media post by Pete Hegseth, the US secretary of defense, body-shaming female members of a Canadian youth development program remained online on Wednesday despite a furious backlash on both sides of the border.

On Monday night, Hegseth posted on X a photograph of two people in uniform with a Canadian flag and the caption “this is real”, an apparent attempt at mocking the country’s armed forces amid the Trump administration’s trade spat with its northern neighbor.

However, the photograph was reproduced from an Instagram post by the Vernon Cadet Training Centre in British Columbia, which hosted a summer camp in July for teenagers learning adult skills on the military base.

Its subjects are not members of Canada’s frontline military, and the person whose appearance Hegseth was attempting to ridicule is likely a volunteer instructor, critics said. The girl receiving a medal is a teenager no older than 18.

The post, widely seen as part of a Trump administration “bullying campaign” over the trade war, was immediately condemned by officials in Canada and in the US. Mark Carney, the Canadian prime minister, called it “beneath the office” of the secretary of defense. (Read more from “Pete Hegseth Criticized for Body-Shaming Canadian Cadets” HERE)

‘I Reject Your Guys’ Sympathy’: Father Of Girl Permanently Disabled By Illegal Alien Rips ‘Grandstanding’ Dems

The father of a girl who was permanently disabled in a truck driving accident by an illegal alien tore into “grandstanding” lawmakers Tuesday, blaming the Democrats’ sanctuary policies.

Marcus Coleman, the father of seven-year-old Dalilah Coleman, ripped congressional Democrats for enabling illegal aliens to stay in the country and permeate industries like trucking, causing accidents that have killed and permanently disabled Americans across the country.

Dalilah herself was just five years old when she was hit by an illegal migrant from India driving an 18-wheeler in June of 2024.

“I reject your guys’ sympathy, to be honest with you,” Coleman said during a House Judiciary Committee hearing Tuesday. “There’s no way you guys are sorry. Not one of you guys have ever called me. Not one of you guys have ever reached out to me. Not when you guys have ever sat there and seen me in the hallways and said, ‘Hey, sorry about your daughter.’”

“You guys do it right here while you guys are grandstanding on top of your soapbox. This is when you guys care. Right here inside this room is the only time you guys care.” (Read more from “‘I Reject Your Guys’ Sympathy’: Father Of Girl Permanently Disabled By Illegal Alien Rips ‘Grandstanding’ Dems” HERE)

Pentagon Quietly Hired MAGA Influencers To Push Hegseth’s Agenda: REPORT

The Pentagon hired military veterans and conservative political influencers to advance the U.S. Department of War Sec. Pete Hegseth’s political agenda, according to a Washington Post report published Sunday.

The influencers included retired Air Force colonel Rob Maness, retired Army colonel and Townhall columnist Kurt Schlichter, and Thomas Anderson, another retired Army colonel who writes and posts under the pseudonym Cynical Publius, WaPo reported.

Maness and Schlichter had active official government email addresses as of the week before WaPo published its story, according to the outlet. Their addresses reportedly had a “.civ” suffix reserved for civilian employees.

Anderson was listed in Department of War (DOW) records earlier in the year with a “.civ” email address, but was no longer listed when the story was published, WaPo reported.

All three were assigned to the office of Anthony Tata, the under secretary of war for personnel and readiness, according to the outlet. WaPo reported that “at least some of the influencers have been assigned to civilian roles that could lead to changes in policy.” (Read more from “Pentagon Quietly Hired MAGA Influencers To Push Hegseth’s Agenda: REPORT” HERE)

The Happiest City in America Revealed — and the Others in the Top 5 may Surprise You

Happiness has an address — and it’s in California.

Fremont, Calif., has been crowned the happiest city in the country, according to a new WalletHub study ranking 182 of the largest US cities.

The Bay Area city took the No. 1 spot after WalletHub compared cities using 29 measures of happiness spanning emotional and physical well-being, income and employment, and community and environment. . .

The city, located on the southeast shore of San Francisco Bay, ranked first for emotional and physical well-being, helped by its walkability, mild weather, high sports participation and an average life expectancy of nearly 82 years, WalletHub analyst Chip Lupo told the New York Times.

Bismarck, ND, took the No. 2 spot, followed by Scottsdale, Ariz.; South Burlington, Vt.; and Fargo, ND — putting two cities in frigid North Dakota among the five happiest places in America. . .

Bismarck topped the community and environment category, with the study pointing to residents’ strong sense of connection and satisfaction with their community. (Read more from “The Happiest City in America Revealed — and the Others in the Top 5 may Surprise You” HERE)

First ‘Space Elevator’ — a 66,000-Mile Cable to the Cosmos— Closer than Ever Before as Scientists Make Breakthrough

On a visit to NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston last week, President Trump promised American astronauts would establish a permanent presence on the Moon before pushing forward to Mars.

“Our nation will conquer … this vast frontier that we have before us … We will explore it, we will tame it, and we will win it,” he said of America’s present “golden age” of space exploration.

But researchers thinking of truly big ideas say we’ll never get there with today’s inefficient chemical rocket technology. And they point to an important breakthrough.

“We’re really pushing for permanent infrastructure, like a bridge replacing ferries to cross a river,” Pete Swan, president of the International Space Elevator Consortium (ISEC), a nonprofit research and advocacy hub, told The Post.

It’s a simple yet mind-bending concept: an ultra-strong electrified cable running from a point on the ground at Earth’s equator, extended out beyond geostationary orbit (GEO), where a counterweight will float in space keeping it taut. Vessels then climb the cable to deliver goods, people and machines, passing through the atmosphere and into space.

“The beauty is that raising it with electricity saves our atmosphere from pollution, it doesn’t leave any debris along the way and it will be routine, daily, inexpensive, safe. It’s gonna be a bridge to space.” (Read more from “First ‘Space Elevator’ — a 66,000-Mile Cable to the Cosmos— Closer than Ever Before as Scientists Make Breakthrough” HERE)

Trump Voters Suffer More Pain At The Pump Than Democrats. A New Gas Proposal Could Make It Worse

By Daily Caller. A recent report found that higher gas prices caused by the Iran War are hurting rural Republican drivers more than Democrats who live in dense urban metros. Worse yet, a provision tucked into the Senate Agriculture Committee’s 2026 Farm Bill could end up keeping those costs high, despite the Trump administration’s efforts to drive down prices.

Filling up your car now costs 40% more than before the war started in February, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. While every American is paying more at the pump whether they live in New York City or a small town in Texas, the spike is nevertheless affecting deep red counties and supporters of President Donald Trump more than blue counties, NOTUS reported Aug. 28.

Gas Prices Are High. Trump’s Supporters Are Feeling The Most Pain.

By Notus. Gas at the pump costs 40% more than it did before the Iran war began in February, according to the Energy Information Administration. And whether you’re a die-hard Democrat or red-blooded Republican or somewhere in between, everyone pays directly or indirectly for that hike.

Historically, this would be awful news for the White House occupant. Political scientists seem to agree that, unlike some trends that preoccupy pundits, gas prices really do move the needle on presidential approval.

Gasoline is a substantial part of the typical family’s budget, of course, but its real influence may lie in its simplicity. As Northwestern University’s Laurel Harbridge-Yong said on Matt Grossmann’s “The Science of Politics” podcast, you drive by gas stations with enormous price signs all the time. If you have a gas-powered car, you fill up regularly, so you have a common point of comparison. And, unlike with groceries where the long receipt obfuscates individual changes, you watch your wallet empty as your car fills up. (Read more from “Gas Prices Are High.
