Trump critics Kathy Griffin and Rosie O’Donnell ‘threw it all away’ to fight president, Adam Carolla says

Published

on

Adam Carolla thinks some people simply pay President Donald Trump too much mind.

The comedian spoke about certain public figures’ apparent fixation on Trump during a conversation with Dr. Drew Pinsky on a recent episode of “The Adam & Dr. Drew Show,” saying that some politicians and celebrities have given up too much just to argue with the president.

“You’re a politician, and you think, ‘I’m going to make change, and I’m going to stand up for this and I’m going to fix that,’ and all you’re doing is fighting with Trump,” he said.

“That’s all you do. Gavin Newsom, Karen Bass – their full-time job is just fighting Trump … it’s no longer what they want to do, it’s ‘what does Trump want to do?’, then ‘I’m going to go fight Trump.'”

Pinsky agreed, and Carolla continued, “Rosie O’Donnell, you wanted to do comedy at some point, right? Now you sit and you fight Trump. And Kathy Griffin, you wanted to do comedy, and you both could do it at a high level, but you threw it all away to fight Trump. Could you imagine?”

The “Man Show” host remarked, “It’s like, I didn’t like Obama, but I didn’t give up on life to fight Obama.”

Pinsky said that the kinds of people Carolla mentioned might not have a person in their lives who would say, “Hey, hey, what are you doing?” because otherwise, he suggested, “it would be hard to keep doing it month after month.”

Carolla theorized that that kind of person “would be expelled from that person’s life if they started asking questions.”

He imagined a conversation between O’Donnell and this kind of friend, in which the theoretical friend asks O’Donnell what she has planned for the day, and she answers, “I’m going to go hit my vlog and do a tirade against Trump.” 

“How about we play pickleball instead?” he imagined the friend saying, then, as O’Donnell, responded, “Get out of here.”

“It’s got to be so unhealthy, unpleasant,” Pinsky said. “But it must be rewarding in some way because they keep doing it, right? It gives them meaning.”

Carolla went on to make an argument that because comedians use their brains instead of their brawn, they can sometimes find their thoughts going in “a bad direction.”

“If you’re a comedian, and you have some downtime, and you’re no longer hitting the boards, you know what I mean?” he said. “You got money in the bank, and you can kind of have your afternoons off, and you don’t need to go out and hit mics that night, then that mind will start wandering on you.”

He continued, “What you need to do at that point is go build a gazebo. You need to get up and get out … you need a project.”

Carolla explained, “When the brain is not constantly working in some sort of support of some goal … it starts turning. And that’s a problem.”

O’Donnell has consistently spoken out against Trump on social media and in interviews she’s given after moving from the U.S. to Ireland following the 2024 presidential election.

She’s demanded his removal from office numerous times, and in a 2025 interview, she admitted that she’d promised her therapist she’d quit making posts about Trump on social media, but she wasn’t able to follow through.

Griffin recently declared herself “uncanceled” nearly 10 years after creating a firestorm when she shared a photo of herself holding a bloody mask designed to look like Trump’s head.

She previously told her podcast listeners to take the time to speak to neighbors and to “find out if they’re MAGA or not,” because it’s important to know “who’s on our team.”

500 groups with $3B in revenues are behind the #NoKings protests and communist call for ‘revolution’

Published

on

A network of about 500 groups with an estimated $3 billion in combined annual revenues is behind the coordinated nationwide “No Kings” protest Saturday, including communist groups who are using the day to call for a “revolution,” according to a Fox Digital News investigation. 

According to a copy of the permit for the “flagship” march in St. Paul, Minn., Indivisible, a national well-heeled Democratic political advocacy organization funded by billionaire George Soros, is the lead coordinator for the protest.

But Fox News Digital has also identified key participation by a network of radical socialist and communist organizations funded by Neville Roy Singham, an American tech tycoon and acvowed communist living in China.

Over nearly a decade, Singham has financed a constellation of activist institutions that promote revolutionary socialist politics and frequently collaborate in protest campaigns, including the People’s Forum in New York, the Party for Socialism and Liberation, the ANSWER Coalition and CodePink, whose co-founder Jodie Evans is married to Singham. These groups work closely with the Freedom Road Socialist Organization.

They are all sending members to the protests and one group said they plan to bring a message of “revolution” to the protests.

On Friday evening, at the corner of N. Fremont Avenue and N. 37th Avenue in downtown Minneapolis, members of the Twin Cities chapter of the Party for Socialism and Liberation packed a car with stacks of bright red protest signs they had prepared at the Dream Shop for Saturday’s demonstrations. They are part of the Singham network and co-sponsors of the St. Paul protest.

The posters read “NO KINGS. NO WAR.” with “PARTY FOR SOCIALISM AND LIBERATION” printed at the bottom. Activists stacked the signs upside down with their wooden picket handles attached as they loaded them into the vehicle, preparing to distribute them at the next day’s main protest at the state capitol in St. Paul.

NO KINGS’ CALLS ITSELF LEADERLESS, BUT ITS OWN INTERNAL DOCUMENTS TELL A VERY DIFFERENT STORY

Across the country, similar preparations have been underway among socialist, communist and Marxist activist groups from the Singham network that have openly discussed using the demonstrations to spread what they describe as revolutionary organizing. 

In New York, the People’s Forum called on members to join the New York #NoKings protest. It’s an organizing hub in the Singham network and sent Americans to Cuba in recent days to defend the communist regime there.

In Washington, D.C., Party for Socialism and Liberation called on supporters to assemble as part of a “Socialist Contingent.”

In Grand Rapids, Mich., the Freedom Road Socialist Organization instructed supporters to gather at the Rosa Parks Circle stage at noon as part of what it described as the “Anti-Trump Contingent.”

Freedom Road Socialist Organization activists have previously led aggressive demonstrations targeting Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations in Minneapolis. The group has an image on Instagram, using an upside-down triangle symbol that Hamas used to mark targets during attacks in Israel.

One message said, “People everywhere are becoming increasingly hostile to the Trump agenda, and more sympathetic to revolution. Now is not the time to sit on the sidelines, it’s the time to go out and join the people, get our revolutionary message in front of them, and turn a day of protest into long-term gains for the people’s movements.” Communist leaders talk about “people’s movements.”

POWER COUPLE OF CHAOS: HOW A TYCOON AND ACTIVIST BUILT A ‘REVOLUTIONARY BASE’ AT THE HOUSE OF SINGHAM

Posts circulating among socialist activist networks also explained “Why socialists should mobilize to the No Kings protests this weekend.”

“It’s the time to go out and join the people, get out our revolutionary message in front of them and turn a day of protest into long-term gains for the people’s movement,” one message said.

In Detroit, activists from Anakbayan, an organization aligned with communist movements in the Philippines, joined other groups within the Singham activist ecosystem.

Posts circulating from activists associated with the Denver chapter of the Freedom Road Socialist Organization included imagery referencing the Red Army Choir, Soviet symbolism and historical figures including Joseph Stalin and Mao Zedong.

The Maine chapter of the Party for Socialism and Liberation, working with activists connected to Democratic Socialists of America and the ANSWER Coalition, called on supporters to join what organizers described as a “Unified Leftist Contingent.”

The message instructed activists to meet at the southwest corner of Montgomery Park, declaring that the contingent would stand against “imperialism, capitalism and state violence.”

“These systems don’t fall without pressure,” the message said. “We are here to organize, disrupt and build power to win something new.” 

The network’s messaging for the #NoKings echoes Singham’s own rhetoric describing the United States as a form of “fascism” and advocating organizing strategies rooted in Mao Zedong’s doctrine of a “People’s War,” which calls for revolutionary movements to embed themselves inside broader political struggles and radicalize them from within.

That strategy helps explain why the socialist groups are mobilizing inside the much larger demonstrations organized by mainstream progressive organizations, experts say. Large protests create massive audiences and national media attention, allowing smaller ideological movements to spread their messaging, recruit activists and build momentum for campaigns that extend well beyond a single day of demonstrations.

CodePink circulated graphics tying the protests to anti-imperialist messaging.

CodePink called for members to join demonstrations in cities including Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco and New York, linking the protests to opposition to U.S. policy toward Iran, Cuba, Venezuela and Palestine. Actress Jane Fonda joined a CodePink protest some days ago, protesting the war in Iran, and she will be at the St. Paul demonstration today.

One CodePink poster reads: “NO WAR. NO IMPERIALISM. NO KINGS.” 

In recent weeks, the group has supported Venezuelan strongman Nicholas Maduro, the late Iranian Ayatollah Ali Khomeini, President Xi Jinping.

Tiger Woods’ DUI arrest sparks demands for accountability

Published

on

Tiger Woods’ arrest on DUI-related charges has prompted debate over whether the champion golfer should face a suspension.

Woods’ Friday crash is the fourth major car incident for the professional golfer since 2009. In 2017, he was found driving under the influence of multiple prescription drugs and asleep in his car, stopped in the road. He said it was due to a reaction to the pills.

“I don’t like sugar-coating things. And the way I look at it, there’s got to be some sort of punishment or withdrawal or some sort of a suspension from the game,” Mark Lye, a former PGA golfer, said Saturday on “Fox & Friends Weekend.”

Woods was taken into custody in Jupiter Island, Florida, where police said he was driving at a “high rate of speed” when he clipped another car, causing his vehicle to roll over. Authorities said he registered a 0.00 on a breathalyzer, ruling out alcohol impairment, but refused a urine test and was charged with DUI and property damage.

“I’m just wondering where that discipline that he’s learned to convey on the golf course is [going to] take hold in his personal life. Obviously, he’s got demons going on,” Lye said.

Lye called for “accountability” for Woods and questioned whether it is time for a stricter suspension from the game. Lye noted that contracts for professional golfers often include a “morals clause” and warned Woods could face further consequences if no action is taken.

Lye isn’t alone in his concern for Woods and those around him, however. Doug Bell, a PGA Tour announcer, said he’s thankful no one was hurt.

“It’s troublesome to see what happened yesterday. It is a pattern that has developed,” Bell said. 

“Let’s hope this leads to something positive for one of the great athletes and figures in this world that we’ve seen in a long, long time,” he added.

Bell suggested Woods take some time away from golf as a productive next step in recovery.

“He’s dealing with something that we don’t know what’s going on inside his head, the pain that he’s in from all the surgeries,” Bell said, adding that stepping away from the game “might be the best thing.”

Woods was released from jail Friday night. In a mugshot released hours after his arrest, his eyes appeared red. 

President Donald Trump weighed in on the arrest of his “very close friend,” noting the star athlete has had some “difficulty.”

Woods’ team did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.

Arnold Schwarzenegger passes bodybuilding torch to lookalike son Joseph Baena

Like father, like son — and a bodybuilding legacy in the making.

Arnold Schwarzenegger was spotted stepping back into coach mode as he trained his son, Joseph Baena, ahead of his first bodybuilding competition — signaling the next generation may be ready to carry the torch.

The seven-time Mr. Olympia winner, 78, was seen working closely with Baena, 28, inside the iconic Gold’s Gym in Venice Beach, California, where the bodybuilding legend once built his empire.

But this time, Schwarzenegger wasn’t the one posing under pressure — he was fine-tuning every detail from the sidelines.

In the video obtained by Fox News Digital, the “Terminator” star carefully adjusted Baena’s positioning, ensuring each muscle hit just right.

After a session of pumping iron, Baena went shirtless to show off his increasingly sculpted physique, flexing his biceps as his father corrected his angles and form — even helping him lock in one of Schwarzenegger’s signature poses.

Schwarzenegger, dressed casually in a black T-shirt, shorts and knee-high socks, watched closely as he coached his son.

Onlookers quickly gathered as the pair moved through each pose with precision, drawing a crowd inside the gym famously dubbed “the mecca of bodybuilding.”

The “Dancing with the Stars” alum has recently showed off his fit physique and fitness routines in behind-the-scenes training videos on his social media.

Baena has been carving out his own path — from acting roles, including the 2024 action thriller “Gunner,” to landing a Men’s Health cover — while navigating inevitable comparisons to his father.

“It’s been a huge growth year of me finding out who I am and really being secure… confident… no matter what the challenges are, what the comparisons are,” Baena previously told Fox News Digital.

Still, he’s acknowledged the pressure that comes with the name.

“The message that I wanted to get across was, there’s a lot of people out there with very accomplished parents… and it’s scary. It’s scary to get compared to these giants, and to have the feeling like you need to live up to these expectations.”
