Now that rock legend Ozzy Osbourne has passed away, there are a lot of videos of him circulating on social media and some of them are going viral. This might be the best one.

A group of young school kids learned to play an arrangement of his hit song ‘Crazy Train’ in a band made up mostly of xylophones. At one point, they got to share their performance with the man himself and he absolutely loved it.

The moment was featured on one of Ozzy’s reality TV shows.

First, watch this school group play the song, it’s pretty impressive for a bunch of kids:

In 2018, Ozzy got to see this.

Rova reports:

As the world grieves rock royalty Ozzy Osbourne, all sorts of amazing moments from his life and career are resurfacing.

One of these is a look at what Ozzy himself called “one of the happiest days of his life” back in 2018, when he watched a group of young musicians perform a cover of his hit ‘Crazy Train’.

In an episode of ‘Ozzy and Jack’s World Detour’, a reality show the Black Sabbath frontman starred in with his son, the pair visited Louisville, Kentucky, along with Ozzy’s daughter Kelly.

There, they met the ‘Louisville Leopard Percussionists’, who treated The Osbournes to an incredible cover of ‘Crazy Train’, played on bongos, xylophones, drum sets, piano and a few maracas.

They even used train whistles at the start of the song before screaming the iconic “All aboard!” opening line.

Ozzy was obviously stoked with the performance, grinning his iconic grin, clapping his hands and turning to daughter Kelly to call it “brilliant”.

“Thank you very much,” he told the kids when they finished. “That was awesome. Absolutely awesome.”

See the video below:

What a great moment for Ozzy and all of those kids. He was one of the greats. RIP.

Joe Biden Gets $10 Million Advance to Write a Book No One is Going to Read

Joe Biden just landed another big payday, this time in the form of a $10 million advance to write a presidential memoir.

Does anyone believe that Joe Biden is going to write a book that generates $10 million dollars in sales? More to the point, does anyone really believe that Joe Biden is going to actually write a book?

This is a tome that will be ghost written and will end up on the discount table not long after being released.

Breitbart News reports:

Report: Joe Biden’s Presidential Memoir Sells for $10 Million

Former President Joe Biden (D) will reportedly receive a $10 million advance for his memoir about his four years leading the nation.

Biden sold the title to the Hachette Book Group but its publisher, Little, Brown, & Company, has not set a date for publication. Biden has said he is “working my tail off” writing his book, the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported on Wednesday.

According to the article, former President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama made significantly more on their book deals:

Penguin Random House acquired the rights to books by former U.S. President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama in 2017 for a price that was widely reported at the time as being in the range of $60 million. President Trump didn’t publish a memoir after his first term in office. Alfred A. Knopf, which like Penguin Random House is owned by Bertelsmann, paid $15 million for President Bill Clinton’s 2004 memoir “My Life.”

The well known conservative blogger Ace of Spades breaks it down:

If you don’t know, an advance is just literally an advance against future expected royalties. If you get an advance of $50,000, you don’t get your first $50,000 in royalty payments, because you were already paid them, in advance. After you hit $50,000 in royalties, you’d start collecting royalty checks for royalties in excess of your advance.

For fifty years, hard-left publishing companies, all of which are part of gigantic media conglomerates with business constantly in front of the US government, have been bribing (Democrat) politicians with absurdly high “advances” that are nothing of the sort. The ten million dollar payment to Biden is a straight-up bribe, like so many other bribes he’s collected. There is no way to characterize this as a reasonable guess as to what his projected future royalties will be. He will not make ten million in royalties. He will not even make one million in royalties.

He will make maybe $100,000-200,000 in royalties. Who would be the audience? Conservatives despise this child-sniffing criminal and Democrats want him to disappear.

That is spot on. It will be a miracle if Biden sells 50,000 copies of this book.

Liberal Supreme Court Justice Kagan Takes Veiled Shot at Trump During Judicial Conference

Liberal Supreme Court Justice Kagan Takes Veiled Shot at Trump During Judicial Conference
July 24, 2025

Liberal Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan took a veiled shot at President Trump during a judicial conference on Thursday.

Kagan did not mention President Trump by name but she warned against threatening and said court orders must always be obeyed.

Politico reported:

As the Trump administration’s clash with the judiciary intensifies, Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan issued a message on Thursday: Stop threatening judges, and always obey court orders.

But Kagan spoke in vague terms and did not say who her warning was aimed at. She did not directly mention President Donald Trump, even as some lower-court judges have already found that the administration has defied their commands.

“That’s just just not the way our system works, not the way rule of law in this country works,” Kagan said at a judicial conference here. “That’s true for the Supreme Court, and it’s also true for every district court. Unless and until an appellate court or the Supreme Court says otherwise, judicial orders are judicial orders and need to be respected.”

Kagan cautioned the hundreds of judges in the audience not to respond to verbal attacks by lashing out in their decisions, but by carrying out their duties as they normally do.

Last month Supreme Court Justice Roberts once again took a veiled shot at Trump and said attacks against judge can lead to violence.

This is the fourth time that Roberts has publicly rebuked Trump in recent months.

Roberts didn’t call out Trump by name but he decried ad hominem attacks against justices.

The Chief Justice made the latest remarks on Saturday during an appearance at a judicial conference.

Roberts also rebuked President Trump in the Spring during a fireside chat in New York.

Speaking at a fireside chat to celebrate the 125th anniversary of the US District Court for the Western District of New York, Justice Roberts lashed out at Trump for his calls to impeach radical judges.

“Well, I’ve already spoken to that and, you know, impeachment is not how you register disagreement with decisions,” Roberts said in front of hundreds of judges and lawyers.

“The judiciary is a co-equal branch of government, separate from the others, with the authority to interpret the Constitution as law and strike down, obviously, acts of Congress or acts of the president,” he said.

GOP Senator Objects to Second Democratic Request in Eight Days for Release of All Available Epstein Files – Then Offers His Own Resolution That Was Shot Down (VIDEO)

GOP Senator Objects to Second Democratic Request in Eight Days for Release of All Available Epstein Files – Then Offers His Own Resolution That Was Shot Down (VIDEO)

On Thursday, Senator Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) introduced a resolution calling for the federal and state courts to release all available documents related to the Epstein files.

Only redactions would be made to protect innocent victims.

As TGP readers know, the Department of Justice has requested that grand jury records related to Epstein be unsealed. An Obama judge is currently demanding more information before permitting the release, however.

One would think the Democrats would jump on this Mullin’s proposal, especially considering rumors that Trump is named in the files.

But here’s what happened when Mullin officially introduced the resolution.

WATCH:

“I ask for unanimous consent for the Senate to proceed to (the resolution)…” Mullin said.

“Reserving the right to object, Mr. (Senate) President,” Senator Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) responded.

Per Senate procedure, any politician can offer a unanimous objection during such a resolution, which is what happened here.

Gallego also claimed he offered his own resolution to release the Epstein files and was blocked. Of course, this was just for show.

Mullin went on X and blasted his Democrat colleagues for “liberal political theater.”

The Democrats never cared about the Epstein files until they saw a chance to exploit the issue politically and hurt President Trump. Kudos to Mullin for exposing this once and for all.

Victor Reacts: Funniest Story Ever, Maybe Illegals Should Buy a GPS (VIDEO)

This is the funniest story you will hear all day.

The Gateway Pundit reported,

An illegal alien from El Salvador will lose his unearned freedom in America after making a devastating error that landed him south of the border.

As NBC News 7 San Diego reported, a Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipient (Dreamer) named Erick Hernandez gave two people a ride from L.A. to the border in San Ysidro on June 1, but he revealed that he missed an exit and ended up crossing into Mexico by mistake. In other words, he ‘self-deported’ himself.

Hernandez’s attorney, Valerie Sigamani, alleges that after being detained by Customs and Border Patrol (CBP), agents demanded a probe from the Dreamer in exchange for being allowed to return to the United States.

“One of the officials told him, ‘Well, if you pay us $800, we’ll forgive everything, and we’ll let you into the United States with no problem,’” Sigamani said.

Sigimani told NBC News 7 San Diego that she has filed a complaint with the FBI in an effort to shield her client from deportation. She also revealed that Hernandez is no longer protected by DACA.

Sigamani said Hernandez has been placed in expedited removal and is being held without bond. He is currently at Otay Mesa Detention Center in San Diego County.

Moral of the story is, if you are an illegal alien maybe you should buy a GPS. Once you have it, let it show you the fastest route to your home country, because that is where you are headed anyway.
