Fox News host Jesse Watters advised “Blacks” to procreate more if they want to offset the recent elimination of majority-Black congressional districts. Last month in a 6-3 decision in Louisiana v. Callais, the U.S. Supreme Court gutted Section 2 of the 1965 Voting Rights Act, which prohibited discrimination based on race, while also sometimes mandating consideration of race when redistricting for the purpose of fair representation for racial minorities. The legislation was enacted to counteract Jim Crow laws in southern states, which had effectively disenfranchised citizens of color since the end of Reconstruction. In its decision, the court ruled that the Voting Rights Act does not require Louisiana to consider race as the basis when drawing its electoral maps. In response, several states with Republican-controlled governments are seeking to gerrymander majority-minority districts, which tend to heavily favor Democrats, out of existence. Watters and his co-hosts addressed the issue on Thursday’s edition of The Five. “I did some research on the Blacks, as Judge Jeanine so eloquently would say,” Watters said, referring to former co-host Jeanine Pirro, who is now U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia. “Blacks, for 150 years, have only represented 10% to 15% of the American population,” he continued. “That’s not that much. So if they want to have more seats, they gotta get in between the sheets. Spanish, they’re coming north, they’re having tons of kids. And at this point, they have almost the same amount of House seats as Blacks. The [Congressional] Hispanic Caucus is almost as big as the [Congressional] Black Caucus. So if you guys need to solve that problem, you know what you need to do.” Co-host Harold Ford Jr, a former Tennessee congressman who is Black, pushed back. “I’m not arguing for more Black congressmen,” Ford said. “I’m arguing, just don’t draw districts that advantage a party.” “No, you’re just discriminating against whites,” Watters insisted.

Screenshot via The Megyn Kelly Show Ex-Trump Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino warned YouTube host Megyn Kelly that the “mass deportations hardliners” are being ousted from President Donald Trump‘s administration. Their conversation came on the heels’ of the resignation of Mike Banks, a top Trump Border Patrol official. He has been the subject of a number of sex tourism allegations. “It’s just time,” Banks told Fox News reporter Bill Melugin. “I feel like I got the ship back on course. From the least secure disastrous chaotic border to the most secure border this country has ever seen. Time to pass the [sic] reigns, 37 years its time to enjoy the family and life.” Kelly asked Bovino what he makes of Banks’ resignation. “Several things there, Megyn, I talked to Chief Banks about 30 minutes before coming on your show, and he was quite gracious in what he was saying there,” Bovino said. “What I will say is that Chief Banks and I are both mass deportations people — just like Kristi Noem, Corey Lewandowski and others — mass deportations folks, and we’re all no longer employed by Department on Homeland Security. What does that tell you?” Bovino himself was reportedly reassigned to California two days after the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis. In January, The Atlantic cited sources who claimed “he is expected to retire soon.” He continued: So when we talk about politicians and politics, none of us were politicians or engaged in politics, but that’s a very dirty business, a very tough business. We’re all no longer working for Department of Homeland Security. We are all mass deportation hardliners, and I use that term with great pride. Am I an immigration hardliner? You bet. Mike Banks was a fantastic immigration hardliner. And the same thing that happened to Kristi Noem is now happening to Mike Banks. All of a sudden, they pull a rabbit out of their hat, and these individuals, you know, oh, my gracious, they’re the worst thing since sliced bread. That’s what I think about what just happened to Mike Banks. As a matter of fact, I think that prostitution thing had been investigated many years ago, and he was cleared. So, that’s what they’re not telling you there. Mediaite could not find any currently available, public documentation suggesting Banks had previously been investigated and cleared of such allegations. .@MegynKelly asks Gregory Bovino about Border Patrol Chief… [TheTopNews] Read More.1 hour ago - Spencer Pratt Reportedly Signed a Contract to Turn Being Mayor of LA Into a Real...
(Jeffrey Mayer/MediaPunch /IPX) Spencer Pratt could be getting a new reality show if he wins the Los Angeles mayor’s race against Democrat Karen Bass. Pratt has gained traction in the race and been hailed by conservatives as the next great hope for L.A. following a debate with Bass that featured his complaints about how she handled the 2025 wildfires that destroyed his home, among the 17,000 lost in the blazes. TMZ reported Thursday that Pratt has signed a contract with a production house to document his move to City Hall if he wins the race. “Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ … Pratt inked a deal with Los Angeles production company Boardwalk Pictures to roll cameras as he runs for Mayor,” the outlet reported. “The production team is about to begin filming with Spencer, his wife Heidi Montag, and their kids throughout his political journey.” The report added, “What’s really interesting … our sources say filming would not stop if Spencer gets sworn into office. The contract specifically provides that the show would go on.” If he wins, the whole family will “presumably be living in the Mayor’s mansion in the Hancock Park area of L.A.,” the report said. On Wednesday, TMZ reported that Pratt has been living in a “swanky” Bel-Air hotel, and not in the Airstream trailer parked where his burned-down house used to be in the Pacific Palisades, and which features prominently in his campaign ads. Pratt hit back at TMZ during a live appearance, saying he was staying in the hotel only due to the “failed leadership” of his opponent, Mayor Bass. “To be clear, that is where I live,” Pratt said about the Airstream. “That’s where Karen Bass, Mayor Bass, burned down my house. That is where I will live until I have a new house. The Airstream is a temporary facility. A hotel is a temporary facility. Where my kids are in Santa Barbara is temporary housing.” According to pop culture lore, Pratt and Montag met in 2006 at an L.A. nightclub while she was filming the first season of MTV’s The Hills. Pratt became a main cast member on the show’s second season in 2007.The post Spencer Pratt Reportedly Signed a Contract to Turn Being Mayor of LA Into a Reality TV Show first appeared on Mediaite.

Screenshot via TMZ on X Jacob Wasserman, one of TMZ’s new on-the-ground producers in Washington, DC, caught up with Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) on her way into the U.S. Capitol on Thursday and asked the 87-year-old if Congress needs age limits. “Congresswoman, Jacob with TMZ. How are you?” Wasserman began. “I’m fine,” replied Waters. Wasserman continued, “Good to see you. I have a question. I want to ask you something as a whiny Gen Z-er myself. Some people in my generation look at our leaders and think, ‘You know what? Some of these people are too old.’ But as a spry 87-year-old, I just saw you talk at the Working Families press conference. What do you say to people in my generation who think, “Okay, some of these leaders are too old, and we need to do something about it?” Waters replied, “I usually don’t do press conferences while I’m walking, but let me just say that the way people should think about elected officials is, ‘What do they do? What can you document? What can you give them credit for? What can you criticize them for?’ If you do what it takes to evaluate, then you can decide.” “Understood, so we shouldn’t judge people based on their age, but rather on what they do for the people,” Wasserman pressed. Waters added, “Performance and effectiveness.” Rep. Maxine Waters tells @jacob_wass no one is too old to serve if they're good! pic.twitter.com/491eiNbWLw — TMZ (@TMZ) May 14, 2026 “Got it. So someone like President Trump, who’s about to turn 80 years old—I mean, that’s the president, kind of different than maybe someone serving in Congress. Is that—” Wasserman added as Waters quipped, “Don’t have to ask me about Trump. You know what I think about him.” “Is that considered a little too old, though—an 80-year-old president? I mean, a lot of people had issues with Biden’s age. What do you think?” Wasserman pressed. “The President of the United States is destroying our democracy. He’s made unkept promises. He is enriching himself and his family with cryptocurrency,” Waters replied, adding: He has lied to us, and even now, when he was talking about Iran, he said he didn’t have time to think about what is going on with financing and financial services in the United States of America. And so this is a president who is absolutely committed to… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago - Fox’s Peter Doocy Reports on ‘Heated And Physical Clashes’ Between Trumpâ€...Fox News’s Peter Doocy reported on tensions Thursday between the U.S. Secret Service and the Chinese police during President Donald Trump’s high-stakes visit with Chinese leader Xi Jinping. “Xi told President Trump that he is not selling weapons to Iran on the heels of this Washington Post report suggesting the Chinese are using the Iran war to undermine the U.S. on the world stage,” Doocy said. He added that the two leaders have had “some very frank conversations” about Taiwan as well as Iran. “It’s worth pointing out that there have been some heated and physical clashes between the Secret Service and the Chinese police at basically the backdoors of these events, including one very physical standoff where a Secret Service officer was being prevented from taking his weapon in as part of the protective detail, but things have all been ironed out and as far as we know, the schedule has not been changed because of that,” Doocy said. Host Martha MacCallum added, “It’s a tense meeting, I think that’s pretty clear.” The New York Post added more details about the Secret Service incident that occurred at the Temple of Heaven. “Chinese officials refused to admit a Secret Service agent accompanying the presidential press pool into the secure area because the agent was carrying a firearm — standard practice for the protective agency,” The Post reported. “The Chinese version of a Mexican standoff ensued, with the press pool and American delegation refusing to move forward without the agent and Beijing officials determined to take his sidearm. After a 30-minute delay and many arguments, another Secret Service agent who had already been cleared to proceed was summoned to escort reporters inside while the first agent stayed behind,” the report said. Earlier, The Post reported that “an aggressive Chinese press pack charged into Trump’s morning bilateral meeting with Xi, knocking down and then stepping on a White House advance team member.” “The aide was bruised and shaken, though not seriously injured, and the incident caused her colleagues to loudly protest the Chinese media’s behavior,” the report said.
