Wife of ‘Nerdy Gamer’ Accused of Beating ‘Trump House’ Owner to Brink of Death Reveals Violent Past

The horrified wife of a Navy veteran accused of viciously beating the elderly owner of the San Diego-area “Trump House” described her husband’s dark past — and revealed that she now plans to divorce the “nerdy gamer.”

Breanna Butler, 32, told The California Post that her husband Thomas Caleb Butler, also 32, acted violently toward his family and dangerously mixed alcohol with his medication “frequently.”

Breanna had been separated from Thomas for two years due to his violent nature, which she attributed to his mental illness.

“[He] has a history of mental health illness, and it became violent for our family, so it was best we were in separate households,” said Breanna, who has a child with her soon-to-be ex and last spoke to hime three weeks ago.

“Every time we speak it’s very hostile.”

Thomas has been charged with the attempted murder of Kerry Sheron, 69, outside his Escondido home, which is adorned with tons of pro-Trump regalia and dozens of American flags.

Senate Abandons Trump’s ICE, Border Funding Bill for Early Vacation; Thune Admits Paxton Endorsement Played Role

The Senate is heading home until June without finishing a reconciliation bill, after Republican tensions over the package coincided with President Donald Trump’s endorsement of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R-TX) against incumbent Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX).

Punchbowl News founder Jake Sherman posted on X: “BREAKING NEWS: THE SENATE will go home until June, leaving the reconciliation bill unfinished. THUNE just told senators in the room. All because of the DOJ weaponization fund. House is expected to follow suit soon.”

Brendan Pedersen, a senior reporter with Punchbowl News, posted on X: “Thune asked if Senate Rs are responding to politics — ie, Trump endorsements and snubs this week

‘It’s hard to divorce anything that happens here from what’s happening in political atmosphere around us,’ Thune said. ‘You can’t disconnect those things.’”

While Republican Senators publicly claim substantive issues with the bill were the driving factor behind the early vacation, Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) acknowledged President Donald Trump’s Tuesday endorsement of Ken Paxton over incumbent Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) weighed heavily on Republican Senators’ minds as they skipped town instead of advancing a top Trump priority as planned.

Trump Forces IRS to Quietly Shield Him and His Family from Tax Audits FOREVER – as President Escapes Potential $100m Bill

Donald Trump’s administration has blocked the Internal Revenue Service from ever pursuing past audits against the President, his family, or his businesses, a maneuver that could spare him a tax bill estimated at up to $100 million.

The IRS is ‘forever barred and precluded’ from conducting ‘examinations’ of Trump, his ‘related or affiliated individuals,’ and any related trusts or businesses, according to a one-page DOJ document.

The provision was tacked onto an agreement reached earlier this week, when the Justice Department resolved a $10 billion lawsuit the President had brought against the agency by establishing a $1.8 billion fund for his political allies.

The order was signed by Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, Trump’s former personal attorney, and quietly posted to the Justice Department’s website.

A prior IRS audit in 2024 on Trump’s tax filings could have cost Trump more than $100 million. It remains unclear whether that examination has concluded, or whether Trump, his family members, or affiliated entities are subject to any other audits.

Current IRS procedure mandates an annual audit of President’s tax returns. (Read more from “Trump Forces IRS to Quietly Shield Him and His Family from Tax Audits FOREVER – as President Escapes Potential $100m Bill” HERE)

Even The Most Loyal Young MAGA Warriors Jump Ship Over Iran War

Young conservative activists who overwhelmingly backed President Donald Trump’s movement just months ago are now showing signs of fracture as the president’s Iran conflict drags on.

The divide has become increasingly visible among Turning Point USA’s (TPUSA) youth base, where young conservatives had recently rallied behind Trump-adjacent figures at AmericaFest before the war in Iran scrambled parts of the America First movement. Some TPUSA chapter leaders and young conservative activists are now gravitating toward anti-war figures such as Tucker Carlson, even as others remain loyal to the president.

Six chapter leaders have recently come out expressing their frustration with the president’s handling of the war with Iran, according to Politico. Trump’s pledge during his 2024 presidential campaign not to start any new wars struck a chord with young voters, who dramatically shifted to the right that cycle.

Steve Cortes, a former Trump campaign adviser and longtime America First commentator, told the Daily Caller News Foundation that while young voters were among Trump’s biggest growth groups in 2024, the president’s support among them has eroded amid economic frustration and the conflict in Iran.

“The two biggest groups where we made the biggest gains in 2024 for Trump and for Republicans were among Hispanics and young people,” Cortes told the DCNF. “Unfortunately, we’ve seen a complete erosion in both of those groups.” (Read more from “Even The Most Loyal Young MAGA Warriors Jump Ship Over Iran War” HERE)

Trump Endorses Ken Paxton over Sen. John Cornyn Ahead of Texas Republican Senate Runoff

President Donald Trump endorsed Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton for the Senate, dealing a massive political blow to longtime Sen. John Cornyn as he faces off against Paxton in an Republican primary runoff.

“Ken is a true MAGA Warrior who has ALWAYS delivered for Texas, and will continue to do so in the United States Senate,” Trump wrote in a lengthy post on Truth Social.

Of Cornyn, meanwhile, Trump wrote, “John Cornyn is a good man, and I worked well with him, but he was not supportive of me when times were tough.”

Cornyn and Paxton advanced to a May 26 runoff after neither won a majority of the vote in the March 3 primary, with Cornyn, who is in his the four term, narrowly ahead of Paxton, 42%-41%.

The nominee will take on Democrat James Talarico in the fall. While Trump won Texas by 14 points in 2024, Democrats have long sought to win the state, and they believe they could have a shot this year as Trump’s approval rating has dropped.

Trump Admin Creates Taxpayer-Funded $1.7 Billion to Compensate Allies Prosecuted Under Biden

. . .In a filing with a federal district court in Florida, Trump, his two eldest sons Eric and Donald Jr. and the Trump Organization said they were withdrawing the action.

A former IRS contractor was convicted in 2023 of leaking the tax returns of Trump and other wealthy Americans to the media and received a five-year prison sentence.

Trump’s decision to withdraw the suit appeared to be linked to a move to create a $1.7 billion compensation fund for the Republican president’s political allies who were investigated under Democratic predecessor Joe Biden.

According to ABC News and other media outlets, Trump’s Department of Justice plans to create a so-called “Truth and Justice Commission” for individuals who believe they were unfairly pursued by the Biden administration.

This could include, for example, the hundreds of Trump supporters who were prosecuted for their involvement in the January 6, 2021 assault on the US Capitol, which sought to prevent congressional certification of Biden’s election victory.

Trump: “Iran better get moving, FAST, or there won’t be anything left of them. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE”

Regional intelligence officials believe Iran is preparing for the possibility that President Donald Trump could resume military strikes against the Islamic Republic as early as this week amid growing frustration with Tehran’s conduct and its refusal to abandon nuclear ambitions, Fox News reports.

According to the report, the prevailing assessment inside Iran is that Trump may decide to restart military action, leading Tehran to pursue what officials described as a strategy of “deception and delay” aimed at buying time and complicating any renewed military campaign.

The officials told Fox News that Iranian leaders believe they can stretch the crisis out for at least two more weeks, potentially making it more difficult for the US to restart military operations both politically and operationally.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Trump spoke on Sunday about developments with Iran. “For Iran, the Clock is ticking, and they better get moving, FAST, or there won’t be anything left of them. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE,” Trump wrote on Truth Social after the call.

Trump’s post featured a map of the Middle East and Central Asia, with the entire region overlaid with the pattern of the United States flag. The country of Iran is highlighted at the center of the map with a dozen red arrows pointing directly at the Islamic Republic. Later Trump said Iran “should be afraid” of him in an interview with Israel’s Channel 13. 

In response Ebrahim Rezaei, spokesperson for Iran parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, said the United States must either accept Tehran’s conditions or “surrender to our missiles.”

Trump is expected to hold a Situation Room meeting with his top national security team on Tuesday to discuss options for military action.

Donald Trump Shares AI-Generated Alien Photo on Truth Social Amid Broad Online Posting Spree

US President Donald Trump launched a notable posting blitz on his social media platform, Truth Social, over the weekend, sharing roughly 25 posts that included highly stylised, artificial intelligence-generated imagery. Among the most widely circulated graphics was an AI-created photo depicting Trump walking side-by-side with a classic extraterrestrial alien figure, complete with fictionalised Secret Service agents positioned in the background.

The flurry of digital content surfaced amidst escalating geopolitical tensions with Iran and follows recent administration directives regarding the declassification of government files on unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP).

The AI-generated alien imagery was part of a broader sequence of over two dozen graphics shared by the President over a period of several hours. Aside from the photo featuring the extraterrestrial figure, the posting spree heavily leaned into military, aerospace, and geopolitical themes. Another prominent AI graphic depicted Trump in outer space beneath a “Space Force” title, portrayed as overseeing orbital satellite operations and missile strikes. The digital blitz also included aggressive geopolitical commentary, featuring an edited map pointing arrows directly at Iran and an illustration of a US drone targeting Iranian fast boats captioned, “BYE BYE, Fast boats.” The online activity concluded with direct warnings toward Tehran regarding stalled negotiations over regional security, economic sanctions, and uranium stockpiles.

While the surreal nature of the AI alien photo drew immediate commentary from social media users, the imagery aligns with a renewed focus on extraterrestrial and aerial anomalies within the current administration. In February 2026, Trump issued a formal directive on Truth Social instructing federal agencies to identify and release classified records connected to extraterrestrial life and unidentified flying objects.

Trump to Kentucky on Massie: ‘Vote the Bum Out’

President Donald Trump called for Kentucky residents to vote Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) out of office on Tuesday, labeling him a “bum” and as being a “true negative force.”

In a post on Truth Social on Sunday, Trump pointed out that “Massie voted against Tax Cuts,” and the border wall. Trump described Massie as being “The Worst Republican Congressman in History.”

“Bad Congressman Tom Massie voted against Tax Cuts, the Border Wall, our Military and Law Enforcement,” Trump wrote. “Actually, he voted against almost everything that is good. The Worst Republican Congressman in History. Kentucky, vote the bum out on Tuesday. We can’t live with this troublemaker for another two years. He is a true negative force!!!”

Trump’s post comes as he has on several occasions rallied behind Massie’s primary opponent, Captain Ed Gallrein. Trump has described Gallrein as being “a true Patriot” and an American hero.

“The incredible people of Kentucky’s 4th Congressional District, who want desperately to get rid of Thomas Massie, the Worst ‘Republican’ Congressman we have had in many years, gave us a mandate to, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post in January. “The person that will help us do the job, and do it right, is Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, Fifth Generation Kentucky Farmer, and American Hero, Captain Ed Gallrein, a true Patriot.” (Read more from “Trump to Kentucky on Massie: ‘Vote the Bum Out’” HERE)

Trump Threatens ‘Weak Minded’ Boebert with Primary after She Campaigns for Massie

. . .The president openly solicited contenders on social media Saturday to primary Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) after she campaigned for Trump-foe Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.).

“Is anyone interested in running against Weak Minded Lauren Boebert in Colorado’s Fourth Congressional District? You remember Lauren moved to the District when it became obvious that she couldn’t win in her original Congressional District (The Third!) — A Carpetbagger, indeed!” Trump posted on Truth Social Saturday.

Boebert, who moved to the more conservative 4th district ahead of her 2024 election, appeared with Massie at two campaign events in Kentucky Friday as he faces a fierce primary challenge from Ed Gallrein, a retired Navy SEAL who has Trump’s endorsement.

Massie is struggling to hold onto his seat after facing repeated accusations of disloyalty from President Trump, who he has accused of being in the “Epstein class.”

“Donald Trump told us that even though, you know, he had dinner with these kinds of people in New York City and West Palm Beach, that he would be transparent. But he’s not. He’s still in with the Epstein class. This is the Epstein administration,” Massie told ABC’s This Week in February.
