President Biden personally called U.S. Coast Guard rescue swimmer Zach Loesch to thank him for a brave rescue of a disabled woman and her husband in Florida, just a short time before he is scheduled to be discharged for not submitting to an injection of the coronavirus vaccine. Loesch spoke to "Tucker Carlson Tonight" on Fox News Wednesday as more than 1,000 USCG members are suing the government for allegedly denying nearly all requests for religious exemption from COVID vaccine.

Although there was theorizing about a fist bump or simply a pleasant hello, they ended up firmly shaking hands as they set aside their differences to work toward a common goal.Biden did not refer to the hot mic moment in a later tweet in which he said, “We have one job: getting the people of Florida what they need as fast as we can.” Jill and I joined Governor DeSantis, Senator Rubio, and Senator Scott today to survey the path of Hurricane Ian in Florida.We have one job: getting the people of Florida what they need as fast as we can.

President Biden met with Gov. Ron DeSantis Wednesday in Florida as the political rivals came together to survey the damage caused by Hurricane Ian. Biden, with first lady Jill Biden, is visiting hard-hit Fort Myers to "reaffirm his commitment to supporting the people of Florida as they recover and rebuild from the devastating storm," White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters Tuesday.

Every time we hear anything new about Ron DeSantis we’re reminded of the alternate universe that should have been, where his name was a footnote in political comedy history. But instead of being known only for that horribly embarrassing campaign ad where he just kept worshipping Donald Trump, the man actually got elected governor of Florida. Sigh… We live in the worst timeline…

Asked today if he was serious recently when he challenged Florida Governor Ron DeSantis to a debate on CNN, California Governor Gavin Newsom replied to a group of reporters, “Of course I am, but it’s tough time to bring that up.”

said, “We are ‘Ready for Ron’ because we’re ready to defeat socialism – before it’s too late.”As the discussion continued, Behar didn’t lighten up on the Florida governor, arguing that “he could use some of that money that he used to get those migrants to Martha’s Vineyard” for something as monumental as Hurricane Ian. At that, Hostin agreed and noted that this disaster will be “a test for him.”That said, Behar did say that she thinks, one way or another, DeSantis will figure out how to handle everything. Meanwhile, moderator Whoopi Goldberg was baffled by the governor praising Biden and his administration for helping out as the hurricane approached.“He’s the President of the United States.

On Thursday’s “The Tonight Show,” host Jimmy Fallon had a string of jokes that showed just how baffling a claim it is that Donald Trump could declassify documents just by thinking about it, as the former president told Sean Hannity in a now-viral interview Wednesday. Fallon also joked that such a gaff will only help Florida governor Ron DeSantis’ presidential prospects for 2024.

Nicola Peltz has praised her "great" in-laws amid a rumoured rift with Victoria Beckham. The Transformers: Age of Extinction actress wed the fashion designer's eldest son, Brooklyn Beckham, as part of an extravagant ceremony staged in Florida back in April.

It’s easy,” the ad promises.

“The View” on Wednesday dove into the ongoing debate over Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ stunt in which he flew two planeloads of Venezuelan migrants from his state to Martha’s Vineyard as a ploy to draw attention to the ongoing immigrant crisis on the southern border. While it’s been a hot-button issue this week with voices on both sides denouncing the action as questionable or even illegal – a Texas sheriff has opened a case against DeSantis to determine if he misled the migrants into boarding the planes and therefore broke the law – but conservative co-host of “The View” Alyssa Farah Griffin indicated that she thinks it’s time to move on and focus on a solution.

stole his racist publicity stunt in which asylum seekers from South America were told lies and then shipped to Massachusetts, as part of a failed attempt to expose some kind of nonexistent hypocrisy over immigration by liberals. And while talking about it, Kimmel essentially tried to low key escalate the drama.“Today, by the way, I hope you know, is ‘National Voter Registration Day.’ Voting, as you know, is one of the few rights the Supreme Court hasn’t taken away from women yet. And it’s fun.

50 Cent is suing a Florida-based plastic surgeon for allegedly implying that he was a client for penis enhancement surgery.The lawsuit was filed in federal court on Friday (September 16), and focuses on a photo 50 Cent — real name Curtis James Jackson III — took with Angela Kogan, the owner of the Miami clinic Perfection Plastic Surgery and MedSpa. Kogan later used the photo in a since-removed article for Shade Room, wherein she allegedly named 50 Cent among her clients for penis enlargement surgery.In addition to the pair’s photo — which was allegedly used as the article’s thumbnail — the Shade Room article was also said to include a photo of a patient in an open hospital gown, with a large eggplant emoji covering his genitals.

pic.twitter.com/uW7tZlQf7gCruz was clear in his response: “For you, a citizen, you could easily be arrested. Although, to be honest, Joe Biden’s Justice Department wouldn’t arrest you.”The senator added that the law “is clear” on the matter, before peculiarly accusing President Biden of being “the biggest human trafficker on the face of the planet.”Earlier this week, Florida Governor DeSantis took responsibility for two planes from San Antonio, Texas, that were full of migrants, which touched down in Martha’s Vineyard.

@GovRonDeSantis, clearly you're struggling, distracted, and busy playing politics with people’s lives. Since you have only one overriding need — attention –let's take this up & debate. I’ll bring my hair gel.

When the scheme was exposed, public opinion was overwhelmingly against the reverse freedom rides, and they petered out in 1963.Watch “The ReidOut” segment in full below..@JoyAnnReid leads #TheReidOut tonight with the grotesque, cynical politics behind the #Florida governor's migrant stunt, which is just like the racist "Reverse Freedom Rides" of the 1960's, as these migrants were lied to every step of the way, so DeSantis could own the libs.
