Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton claimed the Republican-backed SAVE America Act could prevent millions of married women from voting.

“Are you one of nearly 70 million American women who changed their names when they got married? Republicans in Congress want to make it harder for you to vote. Tell your senator to oppose the SAVE Act,” Clinton wrote in a post on X.

“This is so crazy,” BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey’s father, Ron Simmons, comments on “Relatable.”

“First of all, there are provisions,” he says, explaining that they have “other ways to reconcile” a mismatched ID and birth certificate when you vote.

“You can sign an affidavit. You can bring other proof of information, your marriage license, that type of thing. No issue with that,” he explains, pointing out that women who want to travel via airplane after getting married face similar issues.

“If you go to the airport and your ID doesn’t match the name on your ticket because you’ve gotten married, then what are they going to do? You can’t fly. So, what do people do? They get that taken care of,” he adds.

And according to stats released by the White House, a majority of the American people support voter IDs — regardless of political party.

“Eighty-five percent agree only U.S. citizens should vote in our election. But if you listen to some of the far-left woke, they don’t believe that. The mayor of New York doesn’t believe that. A lot of people don’t believe that,” Simmons says.

“Remember that most things that seem crazy, it’s a loud minority that’s doing it. Sometimes that’s on the far left, sometimes that’s on the far right,” he adds.

A top judge in New York was met with outrage after he said voters needed to support judges who would give more lenient sentences to criminals.

New York state Republicans have filed a complaint against Chief Judge Rowan Wilson over comments he made at a panel discussion at the CUNY School of Law in Queens in February.

‘Your political opinion means nothing when you’re in that robe on the bench. Your politics should have nothing to do with the way you render a decision.’

The panelists were discussing a Democratic proposal to allow convicted criminals to request another sentencing hearing after serving 10 years. It’s called the Second Look Act.

Wilson mocked voters against the proposal as “stupid” and said judges should be more lenient on criminals.

“They hurt somebody maybe very seriously in the past, but they have come to be a very different person. And now we are spending a lot of money to keep them in prison. That’s stupid,” he said.

“It’s a very hard thing, I think, given the current sentencing framework, to get judges at the moment of sentencing, to think, ‘Oh, I should think about this fact that there isn’t a re-sentencing available,'” he added.

Wilson also cited a case where a judge referred to a defendant as an “animal” who should be “locked up” for the rest of his life. He called the comments “very distressing.”

Republicans accuse Wilson of breaking ethics rules.

“Your political opinion means nothing when you’re in that robe on the bench. Your politics should have nothing to do with the way you render a decision,” said New York state Sen. Anthony Palumbo (R), who is also a ranking member of the judiciary panel. “We think it definitely warrants review. This is not us being dramatic or hysterical.”

A spokesperson for the Office of Court Administration disagreed and said Wilson’s comments did not violate ethics rules.

“It is appropriate for the Chief Judge to express his views on pending legislation that affects the court system,” Al Baker said.

“It is also appropriate for him to speak publicly about proper judicial temperament and values,” he added, “and to encourage New Yorkers to stay informed about the conduct of the judges serving their communities and to participate in the processes by which those judges are elected or appointed.”

Wilson has been the chief judge of the New York Court of Appeals since 2022 and was praised as the first African-American chief judge in New York. He could face removal from the bench by the State Commission on Judicial Conduct, or he could simply get a private admonishment.

President Donald Trump has backed a social media gun activist for the election of the 23rd congressional district in Texas after the Republican incumbent backed out of the race.

Republican Rep. Tony Gonzales was forced to drop out after evidence surfaced that he had cheated on his wife with a staffer named Regina Santos-Aviles. Santos-Aviles later committed suicide by lighting herself on fire at her home in Uvalde.

‘I had a lapse in judgment, and there was a lack of faith. And I take full responsibility for those actions.’

Brandon Herrera is a gun manufacturer and YouTuber known as “the AK Guy” who challenged Gonzales in 2024 and lost by fewer than 400 votes.

“Brandon is strongly supported by many Highly Respected MAGA Warriors in Texas, and Republicans in the U.S. House. As your next Congressman, he will work tirelessly to advance our MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN Agenda,” the president wrote on Truth Social Wednesday.

Herrera will face attorney and former elementary school teacher Katy Padilla Stout, the Democratic candidate for the seat. Democrats didn’t previously believe the seat could be flipped, but with the incumbent falling, they see an opportunity to seize the advantage.

“Brandon will fight hard to Grow the Economy,” the president continued, “Cut Taxes and Regulations, Advance MADE IN THE U.S.A., Unleash American Energy DOMINANCE, Safeguard our Elections, Champion School Choice, Keep our Border SECURE, Stop Migrant Crime, Support our Brave Military, Veterans, and Law Enforcement, and Protect our always under siege Second Amendment.”

Trump added, “HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN!”

Gonzales, a father of six children, admitted to the affair after sexually explicit texts he allegedly sent to Santos-Aviles were leaked to the media.

“I made a mistake. I had a lapse in judgment, and there was a lack of faith. And I take full responsibility for those actions. … I’ve asked God to forgive me, which he has, and my faith is as strong as ever,” he said in a podcast interview.

The congressman’s conduct is being investigated by the House Ethics Committee.

Rising tensions with Iran sent oil markets into panic. What happens if the conflict escalates?

“So we get these times in the markets, in periods of great uncertainty, where you have real information that is uncertain, right? You don’t know, with 20% to 30% of the world’s oil going through the strait of Hormuz, if that is going to be cut off entirely,” financial expert Carol Roth tells Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck.

“Then that is exacerbated by financial markets, and there are two pieces to that. One is just when there are these periods of uncertainty, sometimes you get, from hedge funds that have large positions and sometimes levered positions in the market, something called de-grossing, where they just get rid of everything and they go to cash, and they go, ‘We’re just going to sit and wait out and see what happens,’” she explains.

“And then you get the algorithms, and the algorithms are jumping on headlines, which are rapidly changing and uncertain, and other algorithms are following those first algorithms. So you get this exacerbation of volatility, something where … uncertainty and fear drives an outcome in the market, and then it becomes exacerbated by the dynamics of the financial market,” she adds.

Roth notes that the “good news” is that these tend to be “short-lived.”

“Because once there becomes a price mismatch between what certain people think is reality and the prices that are reflected,” she tells Glenn, “then greed drives in, they buy things up, and the prices kind of stabilize.”

But Glenn wants to unpack the “worst-case scenario.”

“Worst-case scenario: This drags on, this gets ugly. They find a way to mine the strait of Hormuz or whatever, and they shut it down. What will that do to the price of oil?” Glenn asks Roth.

“I mean, that’s a blowout. Minimum $120 to $150 a barrel. And if it really, you know, gets bad, I’ve seen a few analysts call that up to $250,” Roth answers.

“But let me give you some good news. The likelihood of that is sort of priced right now at like a 20% chance. So 80% chance that doesn’t happen,” she adds.

Are youth sports quietly replacing church in American life?

Sports analyst Danny Kanell recently shined a light on this question when he suggested that youth games shouldn’t start before 9 a.m. on Sundays — and maybe shouldn’t be occurring on Sundays at all.

“He’s got two young daughters that are potential volleyball stars. And Sunday morning, Danny put out a video over X that complained about, ‘Man, what am I doing at 7:30 in the morning?’” BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock comments, before playing the clip.

“We need to save youth sports. We need to save parents from youth sports, because I’m here at a volleyball tournament and it is 7:40 on a Sunday. We need to enforce some laws that you cannot start youth sports games on the weekends before 9:00 a.m.,” Kanell began.

“And how about no sports on Sundays? How about that one? Let’s put those laws into effect,” he added.

“I’m in full agreement with Danny,” Anthony Walker tells Whitlock. “I have seen, over my lifetime, sports just invade family life. And when I look at the scriptures … the scriptures tell us in Acts chapter 2 that they all who believe were together. They had all things in common. They fellowshipped together. They broke bread from house to house together. They were real community together.”

“And that was what was primary, you know, their families and the church community was primary, and everything else is secondary. We now live in a situation where we’re trying to squeeze in the family time. We’re trying to squeeze in the fellowship and worship time,” he continues.

“I actually think that’s the attitude we should all take,” T.J. Moe agrees.

“In fact, America used to take this as a whole. You know, going back … from the beginning of our founding till about 1960, we had something called blue laws, where you couldn’t go in and go shopping for anything that was nonessential because we believed in the Lord’s day,” Moe explains.

And when it comes to sports, it’s not just parents and their kids whose Sundays are being hijacked.

“Sunday is now NFL day. It is not the Lord’s day in America, and I think that is destructive and awful,” Moe adds.

Hollywood actress Katherine Heigl has lashed out at online trolls who lambasted her for merely attending a charity event at the president’s Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida.

Heigl went to her first red carpet event in two years to attend the Wine, Women & Shoes annual fundraiser on Sunday but was immediately criticized by many on the left.

‘F**k her and anyone attending maga-lago for any reason.’

Many accused Heigl of supporting President Donald Trump since his daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, was a co-chair of the event.

“I’ll give you this: All of you people who had weirdly intense, knee-jerk hatreds of Katherine Heigl 20 years ago were right,” progressive activist Jonathan Cohn responded.

“OMFG Katherine Heigl is a C**t. Who knew!!!” author Lorraine Evanoff replied.

“If you’re not appalled by pedo Trump, then you’re complicit. Don’t hide behind the dogs,” one user said on the X platform.

“Supporting Nazis. So many orgs that aren’t run by white supremacists. This is a choice,” another detractor said.

“F**k her and anyone attending maga-lago for any reason,” another response reads.

The actress fired back at her critics in a statement to Variety.

“Animals don’t vote,” she wrote. “The only room they don’t like is the euthanasia room at a shelter. They are completely at the mercy of us, and they have no voice of their own.”

She went on to say that animal advocacy is a deeply personal issue for her.

“Anyone who knows me knows that protecting animals is one of my greatest passions,” Heigl continued. “My mother, Nancy, and I have spent years advocating for animals through the Jason Heigl Foundation. As a society, we should all come together to protect the voiceless and the innocent. This should not be a polarizing issue.”

She also personally responded to many comments on social media.

The organizers of the event said they raised $5.5 million for a no-kill animal shelter.

Heigl is best known for her role in the popular “Grey’s Anatomy” television series.

Musician Gene Simmons minced no words when asked about Hollywood’s opinions on current political matters.

During a street interview in Beverly Hills on Tuesday, the KISS co-founder was asked about how other celebrities have commented on the recent American bombings in Iran.

‘Nobody’s interested in your opinions.’

Specifically, a reporter from TMZ asked Simmons about Ben Stiller and others criticizing President Trump “over this war thing.”

Tongue lashing

From the jump, Simmons was ready to let everyone know what he thinks.

“Yeah. Because everybody in the world should listen what actors and comedians say because they’re so qualified,” the rock star said sarcastically.

“Basically, shut the f**k up,” he firmly stated. “Do your art, and shut up. Nobody’s interested in your opinions. That includes me, who I vote for, [and] who I like.”

Simmons, now 76, then posed a simple question to celebrities:

“Who the f**k do you think you are?”

Ruffalo rebuffed

The musician may have put some thought into the topic beforehand, showing that even after 50 years as a platinum-selling artist, he still seemingly has his feet on the ground.

“People in America work hard for their living, and they don’t want to be lectured to by people who live in mansions and drive Rolls-Royces. It’s time for everybody in the entertainment industry to shut their piehole and just do your art. Nobody cares what you think. I don’t,” he added.

Simmons, real name Chaim Witz, then targeted actor Mark Ruffalo — who is rather outspoken about his left-wing politics — and gave another sarcastic rebuff.

“What will Mark Ruffalo … what does Mark think about politics? I don’t care,” he confirmed, telling the reporter that celebrities should likely stay out of politics, or instead, one should “go to Kylie Jenner and ask her what she thinks of the war so far.”

Pot, meet kettle?

Simmons has made public statements that could be considered political, however. For example, he chimed in during the COVID-19 era and said, “If you’re willing to walk among us unvaccinated, you are an enemy,” telling listeners of the Rock N Roll Channel to “stay away from evil people who don’t care about your health.”

KISS released it’s first studio album in 1974, releasing an album near-annually until 1992. The band’s time wound down with albums in 1997, 1998, 2009, and 2012.

According to the RIAA, KISS has sold more than 25 million album copies and has the most gold-certified records (30) of any group ever.
