Michelle Beadle Counted Out of ‘NBA Countdown’

Michelle Beadle will no longer anchor ABC/ESPN’s NBA Countdown and may be out of job entirely on the self-named Worldwide Leader in Sports. As a formerly rising TV star in the sports industry, Beadle is now a three-time loser. She failed as a host on the NBC Sports Network, was essentially told to get lost as host of ESPN’s Get Up, and now she is done on Countdown. This is one case, however, of where someone who got woke doesn’t go broke. She may even collect her massive $5 million annual salary for another year perhaps for just sitting on the couch. read more

Peter Fonda Tweet About Barron Trump Reported to Secret Service

A now-deleted tweet by Easy Rider actor Peter Fonda has been brought to the attention of the U.S. Secret Service.

Fonda, who seems very uneasy about the situation involving family separation at the southern border, took to social media early this morning to propose that Barron Trump, the young son of President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump, should be thrown in a cage with pedophiles.

From The Daily Caller:

“Spokesperson for the first lady Stephanie Grisham told The Daily Caller that the Secret Service has been ‘notified’ of the threat. ‘The tweet is sick and irresponsible and USSS has been notified,’ Grisham said.”

In the ongoing border controversy, Fonda has apparently also used his Twitter feed to disparage DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen and White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders. He has also called for harassment of ICE agents and their children.
