- ‘Such a F*cking Lie!’ Megyn Kelly Destroys Trump on Jesus Pic — Rips Hegse...
YouTube and Sirius XM host Megyn Kelly blasted President Donald Trump for claiming his Jesus pic was actually of a doctor and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth over a rant attacking the press and casting them as “Pharisees” to Trump’s Jesus. April has seen Trump and his team embroiled in a series of religious-themed gaffes and controversies that CNN’s Jake Tapper has dubbed a “Season of Sacrilege.” First there was a now-deleted prayer lunch that was chock-full of bizarre moments that included Trump spiritual adviser Pastor Paula White-Cain comparing Trump to Jesus. This week, Trump angered many in his own base with a now-deleted post depicting himself as Jesus — which he claimed he thought carried medical connotations rather than messianic ones. Many MAGA supporters weren’t buying. Then there was Hegseth’s rant calling the press “Pharisees” while casting Trump as Messiah in the parable, his recitation of a fake scripture from “Pulp Fiction,” and his Pentagon’s menacing meeting with a Vatican diplomat. And Trump ended the week still locked in a one-sided feud with Pope Leo XIV. On Thursday’s edition of Sirius XM’s The Megyn Kelly Show, the host repeatedly took on the Trump administration on several of these controversies. She called Trump’s excuse for the Jesus meme “a f*cking lie!” and ripped Hegseth for using the Bible to attack the press. Notably, Kelly was sure to reiterate her ongoing support for both Trump and Hegseth: SIRIUSXM HOST MEGYN KELLY: Many times prior to the Iran war that Trump does not have an adult relationship with the truth, many many times… We saw the other day when he tried to claim that that was him as a doctor in that meme and not jesus. It was such a f*cking lie! So obvious– he wouldn’t stand by the me– okay take it down just say you’re sorry or don’t say you’re sorry. Take it down. But don’t try to gaslight us! We can see! So it’s just look there are some of us who will call Trump out on his bullsh*t, which doesn’t make me not a Trump supporter. I still support him. … The the big one this week has been his fight with the Pope and on top of that Him posting this picture of himself as Jesus. Which then he did he did the rare thing. He actually took it down He got so much blowback on that from Christians that he took it down. But then In my view, he did the wrong thing… [TheTopNews] Read More.1 hour ago - Smart Architecture Saves Time and Expense
The author of this commentary is broadcast sales engineer for Burk Technology. Craig Beaucage Radio engineering teams in 2026 face a familiar but increasingly complex challenge: managing growing networks of broadcast facilities with fewer on-site personnel. As station groups continue to expand their geographic footprints while trimming engineering staff, remote control systems are being called on to improve operating efficiency and reduce maintenance costs in tandem with their traditional role of keeping stations on the air. The modern broadcast plant blends legacy hardware, for example diesel generators that may remain in service for decades, with an ever-expanding catalog of IP-based devices. Transmitters, modulation monitors, audio processors, STLs and IRDs now commonly appear as network-connected endpoints. While each device can typically be accessed individually over IP, logging into dozens of interfaces to check status or diagnose performance issues is both inefficient and impractical. A consolidated, well-designed remote-control architecture saves significant time and expense by funneling these disparate systems into a unified operational view. Centralized monitoring is now common practice for radio groups. Site visits are limited to periodic maintenance needs, with schedules informed by automated site reports and system alerts. Long-term performance trends can be recognized before they become outages. Critical alarms are triaged by centralized monitoring personnel who assess severity and determine dispatch priority. This approach ensures that the expense of dispatching engineering resources is reserved for the most revenue-sensitive failures, while lower-priority issues are deferred for scheduled service. Models Although the objectives for centralized monitoring are relatively consistent across the industry, operational models vary. Traditional network operations centers, or NOCs, remain vital for many organizations. These are highly visible, purpose-built facilities with around-the-clock staff, large wall displays and multiple monitoring workstations. Some even maintain redundant NOCs separated geographically to ensure continuity during disasters. In parallel, a more distributed model has taken hold, influenced heavily by the operational constraints of the pandemic era. In a distributed or virtual NOC environment, operators may work from individual workspaces or home offices while retaining access to the corporation’s complete set of transmitter sites. This arrangement supports flexible staffing, load sharing and built-in redundancy without the cost of additional physical facilities. Burk Technology provides one widely adopted approach to this architecture, combining distributed intelligence with centralized management. At each remote site, smart controllers such as the ARC Plus Touch and ARC Solo automate monitoring and command execution. These hardware platforms contribute to overall resilience… [TheTopNews] Read More.1 hour ago - Bill Maher Slams ‘F*cking Creep’ Swalwell — ‘Never Liked Him’ When He ...Bill Maher ripped into Eric Swalwell, saying the former congressman set off his “creepdar” when he was a guest on Real Time. On Friday’s Real Time, Maher commented on accusations of sexual misconduct against Swalwell, which include drugging and rape, that ultimately led the Democrat to resign from Congress this week. Maher noted that Swalwell was a guest on his show multiple times — in 2018 and 2019 — and he never liked him. “We had him on a couple of times. Ask my staff. I never liked him. I don’t have good gaydar, but I got creepdar. I always thought this guy was a f**king creep. I never liked him. And yet so many Democrats stood by him,” Maher said. He ripped into Democrats for standing by Swalwell, calling his behavior an “open secret.” Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ), a friend of Swalwell’s, said in a press conference that he and others ignored Swalwell’s “flirty” behavior, but he emphasized he was unaware of any predatory behavior. Maher blasted Democrats and the media over the Swalwell scandal while guest Rahm Emanuel argued that while Swalwell was right to leave Congress and drop out of the California gubernatorial race there are bigger controversies from President Donald Trump’s administration that need to be covered more. Maher said: You know, I hear this so many times. You know Bill Clinton, it was an open secret in Arkansas. Bill Cosby, Harvey Weinstein, you know, even Larry Craig, remember with the Republican with the helmets… What is going on here where it takes so long for the open secret — because I seem to remember that back in the old days, like when [John F. Kennedy] was president, we heard, well, the media used to protect politicians then. They knew what JFK is doing, but it was just something they didn’t report on. Is it any different now? Apparently not. Watch above via HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher.The post Bill Maher Slams ‘F*cking Creep’ Swalwell — ‘Never Liked Him’ When He Was Guest first appeared on Mediaite.

- Joe Rogan Draws Laughs at Trump Psychedelics Event With Text Message RevealSuperstar podcast host Joe Rogan drew laughter at a White House event by recounting his text exchange with President Donald Trump about psychedelic medicine. Just after 9 AM on Saturday, Trump held a signing photo op in the Oval Office to promote research into psychedelic medicines that was attended by a host of officials and advocates, including Rogan. As the guests took turns, Rogan stepped forward to explain his role — a text message to Trump that secured an immediate offer of FDA approval for the unproven drug Ibogaine, which carries serious risks: PODCAST HOST JOE ROGAN: I want to tell everybody how this happened. I sent President Trump some information. We have a gigantic opiate problem in this country, obviously. In 2024, more than 80,000 people died of overdoses. It’s a horrible number. And there’s more than five million people that are addicted to opiates right now in this county. With one dose of Ibogaine, more 80% of people are free of that With two doses, it’s more than 90%. I send him that information. The text message came back, “Sounds great. Do you want FDA approval? Let’s do it!”. (LAUGHTER) It was literally that quick. These drugs are illegal not because they’re harmful. They’re illegal because of the 1970 Controlled Substances Act that was passed by the Richard Nixon administration. They did it to target the civil rights movement and the anti-war movement. It’s not because these drugs harm people. And for 56 years we’ve lived under those terrible conditions. We’re free of that now. We’re free of that now. Thanks to all these people that we see next to me, and thanks to President Trump. (APPLAUSE) Trump then joked about Rogan’s “little bit more liberal views,” and described a slightly more deliberative process in which he consulted people like Dr. Oz before responding to Rogan.

- CNN’s Africa Correspondent Says Trump Is ‘Surprisingly Much Beloved’ in Co...CNN international correspondent Larry Madowo argued President Donald Trump is “much beloved” in Africa despite aid cuts directly affecting the continent. CNN’s Elex Michaelson asked Madowo for an overall view of the feelings towards Trump in Africa on The Story Is this week, and Madowo revealed the U.S. president is “beloved” for speaking his mind and holding conservative positions. Madowo noted that tens of thousands in Africa are directly affected by cuts made by Trump to USAID programs, but that doesn’t matter as much as his show The Apprentice being syndicated. Check out the exchange below: ELEX MICHAELSON: Obviously, Africa is a continent. There are 55 different countries, there are different takes there. But what is the overall feeling about president Donald Trump on the continent of Africa? LARRY MADOWO: President Trump is surprisingly much beloved in Africa, and people don’t realize this part of the region. Part of the reason why President Trump is beloved in Africa is because he’s got a strong opposition to abortion. People feel like he probably is not pro-LGBT rights. People are very religious in Africa. Many people are religious, either Christian or Muslim. And so they feel that President Trump represents those conservative values that they agree with. Obviously, President Trump has made some decisions that affect Africans moving to the United States. There’s a lot of Visa restrictions. There’s aid cuts that affected. In Cameroon, where Pope Leo [XIV] is right now, maybe 600,000 people might not have food in the next few months because of the aid cuts that affect USAID and foreign aid by the United States. But overall, I think when I go around Africa, people like President Trump, they like that he speaks his mind and they remember him from The Apprentice. MICHAELSON (laughing): Oh, interesting. MADOWO: It was very well syndicated across Africa.

- Greg Gutfeld Jumps On Jimmy Kimmel for Lashing Out at MAGA Critics: ‘Take It L...Fox News’ Greg Gutfeld told Jimmy Kimmel to “take it like a man” after the late-night comedian lashed out at viewers triggered by his show’s focus on President Donald Trump and politics. On Friday’s The Five, Gutfeld reacted to Kimmel’s comments earlier in the week from Michelle Obama’s podcast where Kimmel lashed out at viewers telling him what his “job” is. “First of all, don’t tell me what my job is. I don’t tell you what your job is. My job is whatever I decide my job is, whatever my employer allows me to do. That’s what my job is,” Kimmel said. Gutfeld told Kimmel to “stop blubbering” and accused him of being incapable of self-deprecation. “Look, he is right. He doesn’t have to listen to criticism, but then don’t complain about it. You can do what you want and we can tell you what sucks. You get paid handsomely so take it like a man and stop blubbering,” he said. Gutfeld then told Kimmel to try being a “right winger” for a year, joking that when he’s criticized the criticism is often things he’s already joked about himself. He also blasted Kimmel over a joke made shortly after the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk last year that got the comedian a temporary suspension from his network. Gutfeld said: Try to be a right winger for a year, and I don’t complain. I only complain when one of my friends gets shot and killed and you make up stories about it. My feeling is, he’s hopeless because he’s decided he’s too important to be funny. He’s incapable of self-deprecation, he can’t poke fun at himself and he lost the ability to be silly. I am a fool. I’m the first to admit it. I embrace it. The less important you think I am the better it is for me. No one mocks me more than me and most of the insults directed at me from critics they took from me. So there. Watch above via Fox News.The post Greg Gutfeld Jumps On Jimmy Kimmel for Lashing Out at MAGA Critics: ‘Take It Like a Man!’ first appeared on Mediaite. [TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago
