Authorities have busted an employee from one of America’s worst government agencies for allegedly attacking a helpless elderly woman last week.

As WPLG reported, Broward Sheriff’s Office deputies apprehended 21-year-old Janiyah Wilson-Robinson of Margate following a violent incident where she reportedly assaulted a 79-year-old woman at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport on Wednesday.

Police say that Wilson-Robinson decided to forcibly push the woman, which caused her to fall to the ground and hit her forehead. The elderly passenger, who was traveling on a JetBlue flight, suffered what police described as “minor bruising.”

WPLG reported the passenger received an ice pack and declined a trip to the hospital.

Below is a local video report on the incident.

According to WPLG, police have not yet determined a motive for the attack.

Wilson-Robinson was charged with aggravated battery on a person 65 or older. She has since been released on a $1,000 bond.

A TSA spokesperson released the following statement in response to the incident, noting Wilson-Robinson has been placed on administrative leave.

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is aware of the recent arrest of one of our officers.

TSA holds its employees to the highest standards of professionalism and integrity, and we do not tolerate behavior that violates these standards or the public’s trust.

The individual has been placed on administrative leave pending further investigation. We are fully cooperating with law enforcement authorities in their investigation.

Britain has announced that is sending military assets to the Middle East as Israel’s conflict with Iran continues to escalate.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer made the comments on his way to the G7 summit in Canada.

“We are moving assets to the region, including jets, and that is for contingency support in the region,” he told reporters.

”I will be clear-eyed in relation to our duties and obligations, and my duties as the prime minister of the United Kingdom.”

Starmer said that after speaking with several world leaders, including President Trump, there is widespread concern over escalation.

His comments came after Iranian media reported that Tehran warned the U.S., U.K., and France it would target their military bases and naval forces if they defended Israel.

“We do have long-standing concerns about the nuclear program that Iran has, and we do recognize Israel’s right to self-defense,” Starmer continued.

“But I am absolutely clear that this needs to de-escalate.”

On Saturday evening, Israeli officials seemingly opened the door to an assassinating Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, with a senior official confirming that it was not “off limits.”

“The war would only end either with Iran voluntarily dismantling its nuclear program or Israel making it impossible for Tehran to reconstitute it,” the official told The Wall Street Journal.

While Iran is already attacking Israel with hundreds of ballistic missiles, the assassination of Khamenei would mark a practical and symbolic escalation that could spark wider conflict across the region.

Meanwhile, President Trump announced on Truth Social that he had held a call with Russian leader Vladimir Putin and they had agreed they want the conflict to attend.

"The call (between Trump and Putin) lasted approximately 1 hour,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

”He feels, as do I, this war in Israel-Iran should end, to which I explained, his war should also end.”

Joe Rogan has revealed that two former U.S. presidents pressured Spotify to censor his views on COVID.

In his most recent episode with Dr. Mary Talley Bowden, a Houston-based otolaryngologist who wrote a book about her battle to push back against the mainstream narratives about the pandemic, Rogan detailed how aggressively people in powerful places had come after him.

“Spotify got calls from two former presidents,”

Spotify responded by flagging podcasts discussing COVID-19, however, although Rogan insists the effects were overwhelmingly positive.

“I grew by two million subscribers in a month,” he said.

“People started listening, and they started listening, like, ‘Oh, he’s really reasonable and pretty humble about all this stuff and just asking questions.’”

NEW: Joe Rogan just revealed that Spotify got calls from TWO FORMER PRESIDENTS after his viral ivermectin Instagram post.

Dr. Mary Talley Bowden thought he was joking. “Really?” she asked.

“OH YEAH,” Rogan confirmed.

“OH YEAH.”

Rogan also criticized media outlets that mocked his use of ivermectin to treat COVID-19, accusing them of deliberately misleading the public by calling it a horse dewormer.

“I’m, like, ‘Why aren’t you guys concentrating on the fact that a 55-year-old man is fine three days later during the worst strain?’

“It was during the Delta where everybody’s freaking out. ‘This one’s going to kill us all,’” he continued.

“And I was fine in three days.”

The 57-year-old added that he no longer respects mainstream media after they disgraced themselves countless times.

“It’s so dirty. It’s such a dirty business,” Rogan said.

“God, I used to have massive respect for journalists.”

“If I had never done this podcast, I would be your regular schmo out there with, you know, just spitting out all the company lines and all the blast all over the news.”

“I kind of liked it better when I didn’t think the world is filled with demons, money-hungry demons that are willing to sacrifice human lives in the pursuit of revenue.”

Connecticut’s GOP Meltdown: Ben Proto’s Chairmanship Sparks National Outrage

Like so many states, the GOP leadership in Connecticut Demands POWER but does not support its base – MAGA 

On June 24, 2025, the Connecticut Republican Party will hold an election for State Chairman that’s making national headlines—and for all the wrong reasons. Ben Proto, the embattled incumbent, claims Donald Trump’s endorsement, but his record and reputation tell a different story. Across Connecticut, Proto is widely disliked by party activists, local leaders, and even many rank-and-file Republicans—so much so that the sentiment “anyone would be better” has become a rallying cry.

Proto has repeatedly tried to tie himself to Trump, touting his role as a delegate and his participation on the RNC’s Platform Committee. But there is no public evidence that Donald Trump has personally endorsed Proto’s re-election bid. In fact, Proto’s own actions have often run counter to the Trump movement—he has privately discouraged candidates from embracing Trump:

Matt Corey, who just ran against incumbent Chris Murphy for U.S. Senate, issued a statement after seeing last week’s telephone interview between CT GOP Chairman Ben Proto and Yankee Tea News (“YTN”).

“Consistency and transparency are essential in leadership, especially when guiding political campaigns. During our campaign, the Connecticut GOP Chair advised us that embracing President Trump or even mentioning his name would hurt candidates in the state. He justified this by citing past races, like the 2022 Senate race, where President Trump’s endorsement was said to have negatively impacted Republican campaigns in Connecticut,” said Corey.

“Now, after the election is over, it’s surprising to hear the same Chairman openly embracing President Trump’s legacy,” quips Corey. “This sudden shift in tone raises questions about the consistency of our party’s messaging and the guidance given to candidates during critical moments.”

Proto has even said he wouldn’t want to have dinner with President Trump nor believe anyone else would want to sit with the President. His current attempts to claim Trump’s mantle are seen by many as political opportunism, not genuine support.

Proto’s leadership has left the Connecticut GOP fractured and stagnant. Under his watch, Republicans have lost ground in statewide races and the legislature. His divisive and transactional leadership style has alienated not just Democrats, but his own party’s base; even national observers are taking note: Proto’s chairmanship is now a cautionary symbol of everything wrong with state-level GOP dysfunction.

Connecticut Republicans—and Republicans across the country—are watching as Proto’s troubled chairmanship becomes a cautionary tale. His hollow claims of Trump endorsement and empty promises have left the party adrift from its grassroots, and the results speak for themselves: a shrinking base and state GOP further irrelevant. As national attention grows, the message from the grassroots is clear: Ben Proto’s time is up. For the good of the party, anyone would be better.

If Connecticut Republicans hope to rebuild, they must start by cleaning house at the top. The upcoming vote is not just about leadership—it’s about survival. The party’s future depends on whether it can break free from Proto’s failed tenure and find a leader who can unite, inspire, and deliver real results. If not, Connecticut’s GOP risks becoming a cautionary footnote in American political history—remembered not for its victories, but for its spectacular collapse under Ben Proto’s watch.

The people in Connecticut and across the country are not for Democrat wars, riots, inflation and the destruction of America.  It’s time the GOP under great leadership takes back this great state.

A heated confrontation unfolded in downtown Los Angeles between a Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) officer and ABC News correspondent Matt Gutman during a live broadcast covering ongoing riots.

The clash occurred as Gutman reported live for ABC News Live near a federal building downtown, which has become the main starting point for the protests and riots sparked by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations to deport illegal aliens.

In the video footage, an LAPD officer confronts Gutman and accuses him of making aggressive contact with another officer.

The officer shouted, “You touched my partner! Don’t touch my partner! I’m letting you know! Don’t touch him!” The officer also shoves the reporter away from him.

“You’re pushing me on live television,” Gutman said, adding that “tensions are extremely high here.”

“Yes! Because you touched the officer!” the officer shouts.

A second officer joined to back up the first, scolding the reporter and telling him not to touch the officers.

“We clearly didn’t touch the officers,” Gutman claimed.

“Yes you did!” the original officer said.

Whoa! Hats off to ABC News reporter Matt Gutman for keeping his cool yesterday.

The confrontation took place against the backdrop of nearly ten days of protests and riots in Los Angeles.

As The Gateway Pundit reported on Saturday, one of our own reporters was shot with a rubber bullet and a tear gas canister during the chaos.
