Katy Perry struggles over tour, Gayle King under scrutiny after Blue Origin backlash | NewsNation 

Pop star Katy Perry and CBS morning show host Gayle King are getting slammed for joining film producer Kerianne Flynn, activist Amanda Nguyen, former NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe and Jeff Bezos’ bride-to-be Lauren Sanchez on an 11-minute, $28 million per person joy ride to the outer edges of Earth’s atmosphere.

Perry, who had claimed she was going to put the “[BLEEP]” back in astronaut, came in for special derision when, upon coming back to Earth, the singer said she felt “super connected to life” and “so connected to love.”

But people were especially aghast as, during the flight, it looked like she spent most of her three minutes of weightlessness looking not out the window at Earth, but into the camera, first producing a daisy for her daughter also named Daisy, and then a set list for her upcoming 143 tour written on a paper butterfly...


NFL reporter Jane Slater ripped into Perry as well, noting: “’The whole thing was embarrassing. So many smart women who worked their whole life to go to space and did the work. She (Perry) took a daisy and promoted a set list for her new album. If she really cared? Give your spot up to a young girl in the NASA program.

Famed satirist Caitlin Moran even took the time to skewer the popstar in the Times of London, writing: “And so to Katy Perry, who, this week, became the first female multi-hyphenate in space. Blue Origin’s much-vaunted ‘all-female crew’ was not the first all-female crew in space — the Soviet Union managed that, in 1963 — but foolishly they didn’t include anyone who had their own fragrance or shoe range, so I guess that’s why the Soviet Union eventually collapsed.”

Even fast-food chain Wendy’s took a dig at Perry on social media, commenting on a picture of the singer kissing the ground: “Can we send her back.”...

King, who is considered a news journalist, and therefore is expected to play by CBS News rules of ethics — in which you are not supposed to accept any gifts, let alone one that costs millions — is said to be, by my sources, “under the microscope” right now, especially with CBS mornings’ dismal ratings...

That's it. They have no other evidence. They gave him no opportunity to explain himself before they sent him to El Salvador.

He hangs out with them as a possible prospect while dependable sources say he is in with the gang. 

Regardless, he’s only beaten his wife a couple of times. He should be allowed to reach the ‘third time is a charm’ status.

He definitely knew a significant number of those guys, but whose side was he on? In 2019, Trump's first term, our federal courts ruled that he was in danger of persecution or harm from the gang.  Suggests he was *not* a member, doesn't it?

Looks like there's a lot of legal trouble brewing for Shifty Adam Schiff......

Serious allegations have emerged against California Congressman Adam Schiff, accusing him of mortgage fraud, voter fraud, and election-related misconduct. These claims, highlighted by Californian Chris Bish and Darren Ellis in a detailed draft report, raise substantial concerns about Schiff's residential and voter registration history, particularly his claims of primary residence in Maryland despite representing California in Congress.
In April 2023, an ethics complaint was initially filed against Schiff, alleging voter and election fraud due to dual residency claims in California and Maryland. Schiff, who was elected to Congress in 2000 representing California, purchased a Maryland home in 2003, which he declared as his primary residence. Despite this declaration, Schiff continued voting and maintaining political representation in California.
The report presented by Bish and Ellis points to specific acts that may constitute mortgage fraud under Maryland Code §7-401. Schiff refinanced his Maryland property multiple times (in 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2013), consistently declaring it as his primary residence, thereby potentially obtaining advantageous mortgage rates. During a 2009 House Ethics investigation, Schiff acknowledged this issue as an error and repaid the related tax exemptions. This admission, according to the Bish-Ellis report, may suggest intentional wrongdoing consistent with mortgage fraud.
Notably, similar allegations have led to serious legal consequences for others, such as former Baltimore prosecutor Marilyn Mosby, recently convicted of mortgage fraud, and New York Attorney General Letitia James, who is currently facing similar accusations.
Further compounding these issues, Schiff and his wife, Eve, reportedly sold their California residence in May 2003 before buying the Maryland home the following month. From 2003 to 2009, despite primarily living in Maryland, they remained registered voters in California without maintaining a valid California domicile. California Elections Code clearly states that an individual who establishes domicile in another state forfeits their California domicile and related voting rights. Yet Schiff continued to represent California in Congress during this period, potentially violating California Election Codes (§349, §18203, and §18560).
Additionally, Schiff’s purchase of a small condominium in Burbank, California, in 2009 raised further suspicions. The property, described as having just one bedroom and bathroom, appeared insufficient for a family of four, further calling into question the legitimacy of Schiff’s claimed California domicile.
These allegations also involve charges of ineligible voting, as Schiff and his wife are alleged to have participated in absentee voting in California while residing in Maryland, an action explicitly prohibited by California Election Code §18578.
The gravity of these allegations underscores the need for a thorough investigation by authorities to determine if Schiff committed election fraud, mortgage fraud, or voter fraud. The findings outlined by Chris Bish and Darren Ellis have ignited significant concern regarding the legality of Schiff’s residential and voter registration actions over nearly two decades.

He said from a rival gang. Which means he is a member of a gang.

However, an immigration judge blocked the feds’ ability to deport Abrego Garcia to El Salvador in October 2019, accepting the Salvadoran’s claim he was at risk of retaliation from gangs like Barrio 18, MS-13’s chief rival.

The Trump administration didn't produce evidence like that in 2019 or in 2025.  In fact they've admitted that he committed no crime while here other than simply being here without a proper visa.

He’s attempting his usual tactic of steering the discussion into a tedious and pedantic exchange which eventually strays from the original premise of the argument.

Garcia is a dirtbag who beats his wife and associates with gangs. Somehow, conveniently, the left has magically decoupled from the passion and righteousness of the#metoo movement in order to thwart Trump. However, if there were any evidence this guy supported a political agenda other than their own, the left would kick dirt into his grave. He’s nothing more than a political pawn. Period. Which is why the Dems chose a legislative nobody, like Van Hollen, to pursue this in case it backfires. Exactly why they chose Schiff and Nadler to be their attack dogs before.

Van Hollen just won re election so they are betting all this will be forgotten by the time he has to get re elected. Anyone up for election during the mid terms will keep their heads down.

DHS Official Who Openly Cheered Hamas Fired After 16 Months Of Paid Leave
The Biden admin refused to fire a former PLO employee in charge of vetting migrants who celebrated October 7.

Nejwa Ali, a former spokeswoman for the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) who the Department of Homeland Security hired and put in charge of vetting asylum seekers, was fired by the Trump administration in February after the Biden administration declined to do so for 14 months after she pledged her support for Hamas.

Former President Joe Biden’s Secretary of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas, removed Ali from duty on October 19, 2023, days after The Daily Wire documented her celebration of the October 7 terrorist attack on Israel. But instead of firing her, Mayorkas continued to pay her, placing her on paid leave for an “investigation” even as she repeatedly and proudly affirmed her hatred of Jews and allegiance to the Palestinian cause, and used the paid leave to protest Israel during work hours.

Point is he had his day in court. Actually two days. TWICE immigration judges looked at what the government had and agreed with them. Maybe if he comes back he can live with you and your family.

Not to mention he was associating with gang members and wearing gang affiliated clothing while in the U.S.
