BREAKING NEWS: President Trump scores a HUGE Supreme Court victory—clearing the way for deportations as New York’s Hochul and Letitia James FUME over the ruling. Meanwhile, markets are RALLYING on news of a Middle East ceasefire and the potential for peace, with oil prices sliding again. Could a Nobel Peace Prize be next for Trump? Not if AOC and fellow Democrats have their way — they’re now pushing for impeachment hearings. Of course, Trump has a thing or two to say about that…he absolutely roasts AOC (as well as Rep Jasmine Crockett) in a new social media post!
At the same time, the Democrat Party is in major trouble, with key donors pulling their funding—and serious questions about what a socialist win in New York would mean for both the party and the state.

Deputies report:
On 05-3-2025 at approximately 2330 hours I was working the line of a department authorized DWI checkpoint at Unser and Rainbow for all northbound traffic. The checkpoint was well lit, had official signs, orange cones, and marked Sheriff’s Department vehicles. While working the line I observed a Gray Ford truck approaching the orange cones that designate two lanes of traffic. I briefly contacted the driver (later identified as Jonathan Franco) and could immediately smell the strong odor of an alcoholic beverage coming from Francos’s breath as Franco spoke with me and I could see that Franco had blood shot and watery eyes. I asked Franco if he had consumed any alcoholic beverages that evening to which Franco replied yes that he had consumed one or two beers about one hour prior to my contact. I conducted a Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus test with Franco still in the vehicle and turned to face me square on where I did observe lack of smooth pursuit. I asked Franco to exit the vehicle, upon exiting the vehicle I did observe a child in the backseat of the vehicle who Franco advised was his six-year-old daughter. On a smooth, level, and well-lit surface, free of any debris, Franco conducted standardized field sobriety tests. The first test performed was the Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus test. Franco was provided instruction per the NHTSA standards and did not advise of glasses, contacts or any medical issues that would prevent him from participation. During the test Franco showed Lack of smooth pursuit in both eyes, showed distinct and sustained nystagmus at maximum deviation in both eyes and onset nystagmus at forty five degrees in both eyes. The second test performed was the walk and turn test. Franco was provided the instructions for his part per the NHTSA standard. I demonstrated the test and at the conclusion of instruction I did ask Franco if he understood the test as I had explained and performed the test to which he replied he did. Franco was instructed to start the test and stepped offline twice, missed heel to toe twice, raised his arms and performed an improper turn.
The third test performed was the one leg stand test. Franco was placed in the required position and provided instructions per NHTSA. I performed the test and explained it to Franco and at the conclusion of the test I did ask Franco if he understood the test to which he replied he did. Franco was instructed to start the test and during the test Franco did sway, used arms for balance and put his foot down one time. Franco performed poorly on these tests and was ultimately placed under arrest for DWI. The New Mexico Implied Advisory was read on scene where he agreed to submit to testing, Franco submitted two breath samples (after a 20 minute deprivation period which started at 2343 hours and ending at 0003) using a certified and functioning Intoxilizer 9000 that were .08g/210L BrAC and .08g/210L BrAC. After a resource check of Franco I found that this was Francos first DWI. Once all booking paperwork was completed Franco was transported and booked. A guardian was contacted and responded to the scene and was identified as Franco’s family member. With Franco’s permission the child was released into her custody after she was checked using government resources that she was valid and had no wants or warrants. The vehicle Franco was operating was also released into the family members custody. -

As of 2025, Tulsi Gabbard is an American politician, a military veteran, and the 8th Director of National Intelligence (DNI). She was born on April 12, 1981, in Leloaloa, American Samoa. Being the fourth of five children, she moved to Hawaii at the age of two. Her father, Mike Gabbard, a Hawaii state senator of Samoan descent, brought her up in a multicultural household alongside her mother, Carol Porter Gabbard, who embraced Hinduism. In addition, Gabbard is a practicing Hindu and a Krishna devotee. As such, she became the first Hindu and Samoan-American to serve in the U.S. Congress and Cabinet. She got her degree in business administration from Hawaii Pacific University, attaining a Bachelor of Science diploma in 2009.
Gabbard has had multiple careers throughout her lifetime. These include being active in politics, the military, and numerous NGOs. She is still known for being the youngest woman to serve in the state legislature. She worked as a representative for 2 years. As a West Oahu representative, she promoted clean energy and environmental protection legislation. After some time while serving in the military, she resumed her political career, and in 2010, she assumed a post as a Honolulu City Council member until 2012.
Gabbard served as a Democrat for Hawaii’s 2nd Congressional District in the United States House of Representatives from 2013 to 2021. During her time in office, she was active on the Armed Services, Foreign Affairs, and Financial Services committees. She made history by being the first female combat veteran, Hindu, and Samoan-American to serve in Congress.
Her military career started with her enlistment in the Hawaii Army National Guard in 2003. She was deployed to Iraq (2004–2005) as a medical unit specialist, receiving a Combat Medical Badge, and to Kuwait (2008–2009) as a military police platoon leader. In 2020, she transitioned to the U.S. Army Reserve and was promoted to lieutenant colonel in 2021. She commanded the 1st Battalion, 354th Regiment in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and worked as a civil affairs officer in the Horn of Africa in 2021, holding a top-secret security clearance.
Gabbard began as a Democrat and served as vice chair of the Democratic National Committee until 2016, when she resigned to endorse Bernie Sanders for the 2016 election and run for president herself in 2020 on an anti-interventionist military policy. She supported Biden in 2020, remaining publicly critical of American military involvement in the Middle East. In 2017, Gabbard stirred controversy with her meeting with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, with many accusing her of being a victim of Russian disinformation. In 2022, she became an independent after leaving the Democratic Party, later citing “woke ideologues” as culprits for the Democrats’ spiral into “an elitist cabal of warmongers.” She fully transitioned to the Republican Party in 2024.
She was a Trump supporter in August 2024, and by November 2024, he had nominated her as DNI, which the Senate confirmed in February 2025 in a contentious 52 to 48 vote.
Gabbard has been married twice, first to Eduardo Tamayo from 2002 to 2006 and now to Abraham Williams since 2015. An avid surfer, she co-founded the Healthy Hawai’i Coalition as a teenager. She sponsored several campaigns as a legislator, including finance reform, veterans’ rights, and civil liberties. Although Gabbard later modified her views and became an advocate for LGBTQ rights, she originally faced considerable backlash for anti-LGBTQ policies. In 2020, she became well-known for sponsoring a bill to drop charges against Edward Snowden and Julian Assange, which garnered attention for her civil liberties focus. Additionally, Gabbard has hosted *The Tulsi Gabbard Show* podcast and published the book For Love of Country in 2024.
As Gabbard’s first order of business as DNI, she supervises the 18 agencies under the DNI’s purview, including the CIA and FBI. Her lack of traditional intelligence experience did not quell the debate regarding her nomination, given her history of unorthodox views, party switch, and divided reputation for foreign policy.

Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner: The Enduring Allure of The Bodyguard Soundtrack
The Bodyguard-themed score undoubtedly remains one of the most celebrated. Released with the film in 1992, it was propelled into innovation through its collapsible genre versatility, showcasing pop, R&B, soul, and ballad silhouettes. What added to the accolade was Houston’s powerful and astonishing performance of “I Will Always Love You,” highlighted within the movie’s soundtrack. Beyond what was discussed as pure entertainment, the synergistic dynamics of Costner and Houston seeped timeless appeal and romantic magnetism into the air with every love song they shared.
The Evolution of ‘The Bodyguard’
To construct a musical behemoth like The Bodyguard, hiring Whitney Houston alone as the romantic lead was a faux pas for Create-Koz. The tenderness of their emotional spark was neatly escalated with her easier ontogenic niche, exuberant dancing. Her adept enterprise acumen had always suggested carefree ease, unrelated to romance, joy, exuberant sex appeal, or flirtation. In frankness, expressionless, bite-sized kaleidoscopes that make up societal emotions had morphed into adulation of her.
The plot revolves around a former bodyguard turned professional protector, Frank Farmer, played by Costner, for his new client, a mainstream actress and singer, Rachel Marron, played by Houston, who faces neck-deep rivalry in her field. Tackling stalking concerns efficiently through physical prevention became an effective damage control. The release date for this was set to align for synchrony during the holidays, giving parents ease from school to take them. Because it resonated with the teens from then on, a box office estimate was set to nullify every single animation that aired.
The Bodyguard’s origins trace back to the mid-1970s when Kasdan wrote it as a script for Steve McQueen and Diana Ross. After receiving multiple rejections and undergoing several changes, the project remained stagnant until Oscar-winning actor Costner, who basked in the glory of his success with Dances with Wolves, came to its rescue. He assumed the role of Frank, and, in addition to acting, he produced the film, thereby assuming a critical role in its development. He made the momentous decision to cast Houston for her first acting role.
Houston, who was already an international music star and had sold millions with her albums Whitney Houston and Whitney, was reluctant to accept the role of Rachel Marron. She was concerned about the backlash she would receive for trying to act, which many pop stars had found difficult. On his part, Costner thought that she would be ideal not only because of her looks but also because her presence commanded amazing attention. He infamously said, “I will not let you fall,” and urged her not to take acting classes, claiming that she would do wonderfully if left on her own. Their mutual trust allowed the film to connect with audiences, irrespective of the negative reviews it received from critics.
The Soundtrack That Conquered the World
Although The Bodyguard offered romance, action, and suspense, its unforgettable soundtrack was the film’s legacy, surpassing 50 million copies sold and earning the title of best-selling soundtrack album. Whitney Houston’s contribution of six songs turned the film into a cultural phenomenon. The Grammy Award for Album of the Year was granted to The Bodyguard soundtrack, and its songs “I Have Nothing” and “Run To You” capped off an Oscar nomination for Best Original Song.
Houston’s cover of Dolly Parton’s “I Will Always Love You” is arguably the album’s centerpiece. Parton penned and recorded the song in 1973 as a goodbye to her musical companion Porter Wagoner. She sang it as a soaring R&B ballad that David Foster produced. Kevin Costner decided to include the song, but only if sung a cappella, a bold move that scared record executives, terrified of the song receiving airplay. Other options like Jimmy Ruffin’s “What Becomes of the Brokenhearted” were pitched but turned down.
To this day, Houston is recognized for her a cappella intro with the ethereal line, “If I should stay…” which has been credited as one of the greatest moments in music history. In David Foster’s words, “When she opened her mouth, I realized that Kevin Costner had come up with one of the greatest ideas in the history of movie music.” While watching the recording, Houston’s mother, Cissy, told Foster, “You’re witnessing greatness right now.” The combination of the song’s peak moment, which is emotionally powerful, and Houston’s unmatched vocal prowess made it a phenomenon, reaching the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart for 14 consecutive weeks and becoming one of the best-selling singles in history.
Highlighted other tracks consist of:
“I Have Nothing”:
A forceful ‘power ballad’ that Houston conveys heartbreak beautifully in Rachel’s singer’s portrayal after Frank ends their affair.
“Run to You”:
This song depicts a turbulent turning point in the relationship. It is also part of a music video depicting Rachel and Frank’s romance.
“I’m Every Woman”:
Houston performs an energizing and empowering song in one of Rachel’s concerts early in the film.
“Queen of the Night”:
This is an upbeat one. Rachel’s concert in the film gets chaotic, and Frank saves her from the riot. Then she screams this high-octane “Queen of the Night.”
“Jesus Loves Me” is a sweet moment with Rachel and her sister Nicki. This duet later recurs during Nicki’s funeral.
As a late pop icon and early movie star, Houston gives out the “I” in the case study of Whitney Houston.
