Federal investigators spoke to employees at a gas station about 20 minutes from Nancy Guthrie’s house while a different local gas station reported a “suspicious vehicle” to the FBI, according to a Fox News report on Saturday afternoon. Still, few other details have been reported when it comes to progress being made on the apparent kidnapping of NBC star Savannah Guthrie’s mom. Anchor Jon Scott started Fox Report by discussing the Guthrie disappearance with correspondent Jonathan Hunt, who is on the scene in Tucson, Arizona where Guthrie has been missing since February 1. Here are three key takeaways from both Scott and Hunt: — No suspects have been named nearly one week after Guthrie disappeared — The FBI is investigating a second message believed to be from Guthrie’s kidnappers, although it has not been verified yet; Hunt reported “we don’t believe it contained any new deadlines” — No proof… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago - Podcasters Collapse Over TPUSA-Approved Super Bowl Performer’s Lyrics About ‘Booty Crack’ The Bulwark’s Tim Miller had a little fun with political commentator David French on Saturday over which artist was responsible for a particular lyric — Kid Rock or Bad Bunny. The challenge came after Erika Kirk’s Turning Point USA announced it was hosting an All-American Super Bowl halftime show to compete with the NFL’s performer, multi-Grammy winning Puerto Rican artist Bad Bunny. At a White House press conference Thursday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said President Donald Trump had made his choice, and would be tuning in to watch Kid Rock perform, in the wake of Bad Bunny’s criticisms of the administration’s ICE tactics. Evangelist Franklin Graham posted on X Thursday, thanking Kirk for the “family” friendly option. “Like most Americans, I’ve enjoyed watching the Super Bowl. But the halftime shows began pushing moral boundaries and have become more and more sexualized,” Graham wrote. “This year, they’re having… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago
- Eric Swalwell Calls for Dems to Use ‘Leverage’ to Make Trump Testify About Epstein TiesRep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) told MS NOW that Democrats need to use their “leverage” to get President Donald Trump to testify about his relationship with dead sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein — and implied the president is scared of doing so, unlike ex-President Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton. Swalwell made his comments during an appearance on Alex Witt Reports on Saturday afternoon. Host Alex Witt noted the Clintons agreed to a closed door deposition with House Oversight Chair James Comer (R-KY) related to Epstein; Witt then said Trump had a “somewhat surprising” reaction this week when he said it was a “shame” they will have to testify. “Is it because he’s worried Democrats will then call him to testify?” Witt then asked Swalwell. “Democrats will call him to testify,” Swalwell insisted. “We will use the leverage we have right now to put pressure on Comer to have Donald Trump testify.” He… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago
- US Olympic Athletes Distance Themselves From ICE: ‘Just Because I’m Wearing the Flag Doesn’t M...Team USA Olympic athletes spoke out this week about their “mixed emotions” representing the US amid the ICE raids and shootings happening. Freestyle skiers Chris Lillis, 27, and Hunter Hess, 27, acknowledged ongoing tensions regarding ICE and President Donald Trump’s administration when asked by reporters as the 2026 Winter Olympics, taking place in Italy, kicked off. “A lot of times, athletes are hesitant to talk about political views and how we feel about things. I feel heartbroken about what’s happening in the United States,” Lillis said. “I’m pretty sure you’re referencing ICE and some of the protests and things like that. I think that as a country, we need to focus on respecting everybody’s rights and making sure that we’re treating our citizens as well as anybody, with love and respect.” Lillis made clear, however, he would not want to represent any country except the US at the Olympics.… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago
