Former Mar-a-Lago valet Brian Butler came forward to reveal being a source for the indictment against Donald Trump and why he feels he is unfit for office.
On Monday night (March 11), CNN aired an exclusive interview with Brian Butler, a former valet at the Mar-a-Lago estate of former president Donald Trump in South Florida. Butler spoke about his role as the key source of information for Special Counsel Jack Smithâs indictment of Trump, saying that his former boss is unfit to be president again.

Butler, whoâs referred to as âTrump Employee 5â in the indictment, worked at the estate as a club valet, manager, and chauffeur along with valet Walt Nauta and property manager Carlos De Oliveira (Both men are currently facing criminal charges along with Trump). Butler spoke to CNNâs Kaitlin Collins about Trump sharing classified information about submarines with Australian billionaire Anthony Pratt, and how Pratt repeated that information to his chief-of-staff as Butler was driving them. He also told Collins he had no idea he was helping to move sensitive information. âFor me, Iâm just thinking, eh, the former president, he has a lot of stuff he likes to lug around with him,â Butler said, referring to moving the â10 to 15â white bankers boxes of information stored in various places at Mar-a-Lago which Smith cites in the indictment.
Collins asked Butler if he felt Trump was a security risk, to which Butler responded: âI personally would just say I just donât believe that he should be a presidential candidate at this time. I think itâs time to move on.â When pressed on if he was âconcernedâ, the 41-year-old replied, âYeah, absolutely. I think we can do better.â Butler also criticized Trumpâs defense in the case as âbogusâ. âTo me, you have the âlaw and orderâ president attacking agents, the special counsel on almost a daily basis, when these people are just taking their sworn oathâthey took a sworn oath to basically follow the laws of this country. And now you have somebody attacking them. I donât think thatâs right.â
Butler also spoke about the end of his and De Oliveiraâs 20-year friendship, blaming Trump for that division. âNobody should have to go through that. And for him (Trump) to get up there all the time and say the things he says about this being a witch hunt and everything. ⌠He just canât take responsibility for anything,â he said.

Donald Trump had plenty to say about Jimmy Kimmelâs Oscars hostingâbut the comedian had the last laugh, responding in real-time.
On Sunday night (March 10) the 96th Academy Awards were coming to a close. Comedian and late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel served as the host of the grand event at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California, and he began to thank the audience. âThis show is not about me, and I appreciate you having me. Itâs really about you, and Emma, and all these great actors and actresses and filmmakers, but I was told we had like an extra minute, and Iâm really proud of something, and I was wondering if I could share it with you. I just got a review and ummmâŚ,â Kimmel said before reading a Truth Social post from former President Donald Trump about him.
âHas there ever been a worse host than Jimmy Kimmel at The Oscars,â the post said. âHis opening was that of a less than average person trying too hard to be something which he is not, and never can be. Get rid of Kimmel and perhaps replace him with another washed up, but cheap, ABC âtalent,â George Slopanopoulos. He would make everybody on stage look bigger, stronger, and more glamorous. Blah. Blah. Blah. Make America Great Again.â Kimmel paused as the crowd laughed. âSee if you can guess which former president just posted that on Truth Social. Anyone? No? Well thank you President Trump. Thank you for watching. Iâm surprised youâre still up. Isnât it past your jail time?â, Kimmel retorted. The Oscars crowd broke into heavy laughter and applause after Kimmelâs jab.
Kimmel revealed that he had been advised not to read Trumpâs post on Truth Social during an interview with Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos on  Monday morning (March 11). âTheyâre like, âYouâve got a little bit of timeâ and I was like, âIâm reading the Trump tweet,â and theyâre like, âNo, no, donât read that,’â he said. He didnât specify the person in particular who told him that he couldnât read the post, but Kimmel replied: â[I was like] âYes I am.ââ
Itâs not the first time that Kimmel has verbally smacked down the former president concerning the Oscars. Back in 2018, Trump posted âLowest rated Oscars in HISTORY,â the morning after that yearâs show on Twitter, also hosted by Kimmel. âProblem is, we donât have Stars anymore â except your President (just kidding, of course)!â Kimmel fired back: âThanks, lowest-rated President in HISTORY. â

Charles Barkley is walking back a threat he jokingly made regarding Black Trump supporters and how punchable their faces are.
During a recent episode of Barkleyâs show with Gayle King on CNN, the former NBA power forward responded to Donald Trump relying on racist stereotypes and fake solidarity with Black people to woo Black voters during an appearance at the Black Conservative Federation Gala in South Carolina (which unsurprisingly had a white AF audience).
During the speech, Trump, in his usual delusional fashion, claimed Black people are walking around in t-shirts with images of his mugshot, which he got after being indicted on RICO charges for alleged election interference in Georgia. Trump also claimed, âBlack people like me, because they have been hurt so badly and discriminated against, and they actually viewed me as Iâm being discriminated against.â He said this in reference to his own legal woes, which, obviously, have nothing to do with racial discrimination, and are rich coming from the orangey-white nationalist who spearheaded the propaganda-reliant attack on critical race theory, Black Lives Matter and DEI.
âIf I see a Black person walking around with a Trump mug shot, Iâm gonna punch him in the face,â Barkley told King.
Now, the second Barkley said this, we all should have known it would only be a matter of time before he had to make another statement dialing it back. According to USA Today, video clips of Barkleyâs remarks got hundreds of views, which means he likely came under fire because folks were more offended by what he said than they were by a demonstrably racist white man who has such little respect for âthe Blacksâ that he will perform white supremacy right in our faces then turn around and cite anti-Black injustice when itâs convenient for his political campaign.
âObviously Iâm not gonna go around punching random strangers in the face,â Barkley said on his show Wednesday in an attempt to clarify his remarks. Still, he made it clear that he is not walking back his contempt for Trump or the sunken place soldiers who support him.
âWhen Donald Trump compares his plight with that of the Black person, that is what I had a problem with,â Barkley went on to say. âNow, I do wanna say this. I want to make it perfectly clear⌠If youâre a Black person and youâre wearing a Donald Trump mugshot, you are a freaking idiot.â
âIdiotâ is actually too kind a word to use here. âSambo Blackey-lackey bowing to their MAGA massa’â is far more appropriate.

The origin of the long-running feud between 50 Cent and Ja Rule was revealed by Steve Stoute in a recent chat with Shannon Sharpe.
The bad blood between 50 Cent and Ja Rule has been a constant source of news over the years, with no one truly understanding the reasons why. But industry music veteran and UnitedMasters CEO Steve Stoute shone a light on the roots of it during his appearance on Shannon Sharpeâs Club Shay Shay podcast this past Wednesday (March 6) when the host asked. âThatâs a good question,â Stoute said. âI think 50 knew that Ja was not who he was portraying as an image. Ja [was a] Jehovahâs Witness⌠Iâm not saying they not supposed to rap, but Ja was coming up with this gangster image. It was like, âThatâs a stretch for youâŚâ They had some very neighborhood beef.â

Stoute continued as the two rode through the borough of Queens that both MCs hail from: âI remember when we signed 50 there was something going on. I think he snatched Jaâs chain, or somebody snatched somebodyâsâŚAnd then they had a fight in AtlantaâŚand it was just like, I never understood it. I was like, âWhy do you keep having problems with this guy?â It was like he was always looking for problemsâŚI think it was driven by this idea that this image he was portraying he didnât think was authenticâŚIt led to big issues. Ja and his guys ran up on 50 in the studio one day. They touched him up.â
Shannon then said, âOh, so theyâre never gonna be cool,â to which Stoute replied, âTheyâre never gonna be cool, and now, Iâm happy that itâs all kind of over with,â he said. âWhat I donât like at this point as older statesmen isâŚit makes the art form look bad. These guys are made men nowâŚThe leaders of the art form doin well, being positive, representingâŚthe movement and the culture of Hip Hop well. For guys still to be beefing and stillâŚdragging that back inâŚyou in your 40s, bro. What are you talking about? You got kids at home.â Stoute also made headlines with his take on Dame Dash, which led to Dash replying via Instagram: âThis is the reason I had to smack the shit out of @stevestoute a couple years agoâŚbecause heâs always speaking on other menâs business. good thing Iâve evolved.â

The fashion choices of Ye aka Kanye West and his wife, Bianca Censori, are always good for setting the internet ablaze and getting the people talking. Well, that hasnât changed as photos have been floating around social media that show Bianca letting it all hang out (uhâŚso to speak) while she and Ye were out on the town in Paris for fashion week, according to TMZ.
Censori was not living up to the âcensorâ part of her name when she walked the streets of Paris in furs, see-through stockings andânot much else. Obviously, Bianca is no stranger to being scantily clad, and to his credit, Ye doesnât appear to be one of those insecure spouses who would throw a fit over what his wife is wearing in public while scouring the area to make sure Usher is nowhere in sight.
Still, Bianca must have been out there turning heads by basically going nude from the waist down.
One person who does appear to be bothered by Biancaâs attire choices is her father, who appears to blame Ye for letting his daughter come out of the house in clothes that could get you an indecent exposure charge in the States.
From TMZ:
Sources close to Bianca told Daily Mail that her dad, Leo, wants to sit down for a chat with Kanye West to discuss the outfits his daughterâs wearing ⌠and these sources are saying heâs outright gonna go on a tirade if he does get face time with him.
According to the report, Leo wants to ask Ye point-blank how he could possibly march his wife around in barely-there clothes like some âtrashy naked trophy ponyâ â not exactly the words anyone would wanna hear from their father-in-law.
Leo also apparently wants to ask Ye if heâd be cool with his daughters walking around wearing similarly sheer clothing when they grow up â âcause quite frankly, he doubts it.
Yeahâitâs worth pointing out that Yeezus isnât Biancaâs parent, and even if he was, she is a 29-year-old adult with the agency to dress herself.Â
So, what do yâall think about Biancaâs latest fit? Let us know in the comments below.

King Harris is still standing on business and had time for comedian and social media star Druski.
The son of Atlanta Hip-Hop star T.I. was BIG mad at Druski following some comments the comedian made about him during an interview on The Breakfast Club.
In a now-deleted post shared on Tuesday, Feb 27, King called out Druski, accusing him of being scared of him and saying what he did for clout.
Per XXL:
âDruski yo a$$ trimm,â he captioned the post below. âLetâs the games begin. N***a I just seen u ainât u ainât say nothing of that. Only thing you said was âHere go King standin on business.â I tell ya the clout is a hell of a drug. And n***a what the hell is look like standing on my luxury a*s car. Not P.â
âDruski, you and your cholesterol need to calm the f**k down,â King snaps in the video below. âYou and them wide-body Hellcat hips need to need to calm the f**k down. I canât believe this n***a just tried to call me p***y in the interview. I just seen him a couple weeks ago.â
âWe seen you run from a n***a,â King continues. âWe seen you run from Birdman. I ainât never ran from nobody. It look like you got a p***y and you walk with a strap.â
How Did This All Start?
Kingâs response comes after Druski was asked about the altercation with King, and the comedian immediately dismissed T.I.âs son when he was asked if he was more scared of Birdman or King.
âCome one, man. That n***a p***y,â Druski said King Harris? What we talking about, man?âŚHe did pull up on me at the [âStandinâ on Bihnessâ] video shoot. We had too much security, though. He tried to do a stare off. The n***a got out his car and just kinda stood on top of the car. And he âbout to go right back to that nice-a*s house. He donât know s**t about standing on business.â
Druski said he has no problem with King despite the tension between the two.
We canât say the same for King.

It is clear Jennifer Lopez is still tapped into the streets. She had Redman join her during her Saturday Night Live set.
As spotted on GQ Magazine Newark and the South Bronx have come together for a memorable moment on one of the worldâs most iconic stages. On Saturday, Feb 3 the âLove Donât Cost A Thingâ singer debuted the remix to her single âCanât Get Enoughâ which reprises Redmanâs 1998 hit âDa Goodnessâ. Wearing a suit, an untucked button-up shirt and a fedora to match the black and white theme, Reggie Noble flawlessly rapped his verse while interacting with the Grammy Award nominated singer with his own set of dance moves. Additionally, the bars were gritty but still made aligned with the trackâs mainstream feel. âTake âem to the limit / shut the place down in a New York minute / Look around the room, J.LO they all mad / Season veterans â check the dog tagsâ.
This is not the first time Funk Doctor Spock has lent his talents to a pop song. Back in 2003 Christina Aguilera redid his song âDirtyâ which he featured on. The track was the lead single to her multi-platinum album Stripped. The duo performed the song at 2002 MTV Music Awards. You can see Jennifer Lopez rock with both Latto and Redman on Saturday Night Live below.
