Wack 100 Denies Big U's Claim He Helped Feds Build Rollin' 60s RICO Case
Wack 100 has reacted to the accusations by Eugene 'Big U' Henley that he is responsible for the federal indictments handed down against the alleged members of the Rollin' 60s Neighborhood Crips gang.
The rap manager took to Clubhouse on Thursday (March 20) to defend himself, just one day after Henley surrendered to federal authorities to face a raft of conspiracy charges including murder, extortion, and fraud.
Wack scoffed at Henley's labels. In a fiery tirade, the record executive responded by calling the alleged crime boss a 'monster.'
'Sh*t ain't got nothing to do with Wack!' he said while also refuting Henley's claim that he had been circulating legal documents regarding the alleged illegal dealings on social media or elsewhere.
'It seems to me like I've been threatening the paperwork, Wack ain't said nothing,' the West Coaster added. Also addressed were Henley's charges the manager had prior knowledge of the authorities' plans to raid Henley's homes and properties. Wack stated that it was obvious Henley and his alleged cohorts were on law enforcement's radar.
'What you mean, 'How did they know?! How did they know?!' Wack said, mocking Henley. ''How did they know they was gonna raid my house?' Oh, you a goofy. How the f**k you didn't know?'
In a series of clips shared on social media prior to his surrender, Henley had called out Wack 100, labeling him an informant and accusing him of assisting the Feds in sullying his name.
'Wack said 100 times he was gonna take my contracts,' the Los Angeles native said in the video. 'He working with the FBI.'
Henley, who continues to maintain his innocence, attributed the indictments to retribution for philanthropic work he'd done in the city.
'They going around scaring and intimidating everybody y'all sending it around, getting people in trouble. Like y'all don't understand what the FBI do to Black men who try to help their community.'
Federal officials have accused Big U of running a criminal enterprise and conspiracy to commit extortion, fraud, murder, and a host of other crimes.

Brilliant airhead! Conman scored 120 free flights in clever ‘Catch Me If You Can'-style scam
Paging Frank Abagnale, Jr.! A Florida conman scored more than 120 free flights by posing as a crew member with at least seven different airlines in a wild, 'Catch Me If You Can'-style scam, according to federal prosecutors. Tiron Alexander, 35 — whose scheme echoes that of the real-life imposter pilot who inspired the Leonardo DiCaprio movie — was convicted of fraud June 5, according to the US Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida. Advertisement Alexander took swindling to new heights by submitting scores of fake flight attendant credentials, including phony badge numbers, to book free flights between 2018 and 2024, federal prosecutors said. The scam echoes the one featured in the 2002 movie 'Catch Me If You Can.' Svitlana – The clever airhead turned in the bogus paperwork, complete with roughly 30 fabricated hire dates and ID numbers, to get aboard flights without paying — a perk only offered to pilots and crew members, prosecutors said. Advertisement All told, Alexander went on at least 34 free flights and booked a total of at least 120 without ever working for any of the airlines involved, authorities said. The fraudster previously worked for an unidentified airline in Dallas but was never a pilot or flight attendant for the firm, according to the prosecutors. Crew members and pilots are given free flights by airlines. Svitlana – He was found guilty of wire fraud and entering secure airport areas under false pretenses and faces up to 20 years behind bars. He is scheduled to be sentenced on Aug. 25. Advertisement By contrast, 'Catch Me if You Can' tells the true story of conman Frank Abagnale, Jr. who impersonated a Pan Am pilot, a doctor and a lawyer — all before turning 19 years old. He was eventually caught in 1970 and later used his expertise in fraud to work with the FBI.

Democratic Sen. Alex Padilla handcuffed and forcibly removed from Kristi Noem's immigration press conference
Sen. Alex Padilla was forcibly removed by what appeared to be law enforcement officials Thursday after he interrupted a Los Angeles press conference of Kristi Noem, who was discussing the Trump administration's response to the ongoing anti-ICE demonstrations. 'We are not going away,' Department of Homeland Security Secretary Noem declared. 'We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country and what they have tried to insert into the city.' At that point, Padilla — who had barged into the conference room as Noem spoke — tried to address the Homeland Security chief before he was accosted by FBI agents, who then briefly restrained the California Democrat after rushing him away from the scene. 'I'm Senator Alex Padilla. I have questions for the secretary. Because the fact of the matter is, a half dozen... Hands off!' the lawmaker was heard shouting as he was swarmed by law enforcement. Following his brief detainment by the FBI, the senator held a news conference and stated he was at the Wilshire Federal Building awaiting a scheduled briefing from federal officials as part of his 'responsibility as a senator to provide oversight and accountability.' He asserted that while he was waiting for a separate briefing, he learned that Noem was holding a press conference just a few doors down the hall. Adding that he and his Democratic colleagues have been attempting to get answers from DHS on their 'increasingly extreme' immigration actions, Noem had given little to no information in recent weeks, prompting him to attend her presser. 'I came to the press conference to hear what she had to say, to see if I could learn any new additional information,' he continued. 'I was there peacefully. At one point, I had a question and so I began to ask a question. I was almost immediately forcibly removed from the room. I was forced to the ground and I was handcuffed. I was not arrested. I was not detained.' While urging more 'peaceful protests' across the country against the administration's immigration enforcement actions, he wrapped up his remarks by suggesting that his incident was a warning shot. 'If this is how the Department of Homeland Security responds to a senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California and throughout the country,' Padilla said. 'We will hold this administration accountable. ' Meanwhile, a Homeland Security spokesperson accused Padilla of 'lunging' at Noem without identifying himself, though video footage captures the senator saying his name and title at least twice. 'Senator Padilla chose disrespectful political theatre and interrupted a live press conference without identifying himself or having his Senate security pin on as he lunged toward Secretary Noem,' assistant secretary Tricia McLaughlin told The Independent. 'Mr. Padilla was told repeatedly to back away and did not comply with officers' repeated commands. U.S. Secret Service thought he was an attacker and officers acted appropriately,' she added. After the incident, Noem spoke with Padilla during a 15-minute meeting, according to her office. The Independent has requested additional comment from the FBI. Speaking to the press after her meeting with Padilla, Noem said she had a 'great conversation' with the senator about Homeland Security's activities and operations in Los Angeles, insisting it was 'very productive.' At the same time, though, she reiterated her office's claim that he didn't identify himself and attempted to 'lunge' at her, despite the fact that he repeatedly said his name while asking her a question. 'I'll let the law enforcement speak to how this situation was handled,' she stated. 'But I will say that people need to identify themselves before they start lunging at people during press conferences.' Based on footage that was shared on social media from reporters on the scene, after being forcefully pushed out of the conference room into an adjacent hallway, Padilla was handcuffed and restrained face down on the floor by several FBI agents. 'Senator Padilla is currently in Los Angeles exercising his duty to perform Congressional oversight of the federal government's operations in Los Angeles and across California. He was in the federal building to receive a briefing with General Guillot and was listening to Secretary Noem's press conference,' Padilla's office said in a statement. 'He tried to ask the Secretary a question, and was forcibly removed by federal agents, forced to the ground and handcuffed. He is not currently detained, and we are working to get additional information.' 'This is unacceptable, full stop,' the Congressional Hispanic Caucus added in another statement. '@SenAlexPadilla attended an open press conference to engage in debate, to represent his state, to do his job. We demand a full investigation and consequences for every official involved in this assault against a sitting US senator.' In a brief, furious statement on the Senate floor, Democratic Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said footage of the incident 'sickened my stomach, adding: 'We need immediate answers to what the hell went on.' California Gov. Gavin Newsom, who is currently suing the administration for federally mobilizing the National Guard in response to the protests, also immediately condemned the treatment of Padilla during the press conference. '@SenAlexPadilla is one of the most decent people I know. This is outrageous, dictatorial, and shameful,' he tweeted. 'Trump and his shock troops are out of control. This must end now.' Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass called the incident 'absolutely abhorrent and outrageous,' noting that Padilla is a sitting United States senator. 'This administration's violent attacks on our city must end,' she added. California's other senator, Democrat Adam Schiff, reacted by saying his colleague represented 'the best of the Senate' before denouncing the actions against Padilla. 'The disgraceful and disrespectful conduct of DHS agents, pushing and shoving him out of a briefing like that, demands our condemnation,' he said. 'He will not be silenced or intimidated. His questions will be answered. I'm with Alex.' Schiff would also tell reporters on Capitol Hill that he wants an investigation into the incident, a call that was echoed by other Democratic lawmakers. 'We need to subpoena Kristi Noem!'Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-FL) declared in a House Oversight hearing featuring several governors of sanctuary states. 'America is dying. Trump's agents just physically attacked a U.S. Senator. This is how freedom dies,' Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) stated on X. The arrest follows resistance from thousands of Americans against the Trump administration's aggressive anti-immigration agenda, with immigration raids and arrests in the Los Angeles area sparking nationwide protests against enforcement efforts ripping families and communities apart. Noem has also revoked humanitarian protections for roughly 1 million people with temporary legal status after fleeing disaster and violence in nations like Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela. Immigration judges have also been instructed to drop cases for hundreds of other immigrants, making potentially millions of people vulnerable to arrest and swift removal from the country. Noem has deployed masked agents to make arrests in and outside courthouses moments after those hearings end. White House policy chief Stephen Miller, the architect of the president's anti-immigration platform, has put pressure on Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials to arrest 3,000 people a day. He reportedly told officials last month to 'just go out there and arrest illegal aliens.'

Former ESPN host claims Trump wants to make America a 'Whiter nation'
Former ESPN radio host Dan Le Batard has long been critical of President Donald Trump and his immigration policies - his parents came to the U.S. from Cuba. During his show on Wednesday, Le Batard again spoke out against the policies while mentioning the protests in Los Angeles, claiming Trump wants to make the United States a "whiter nation." "Of course, everyone can agree, yes, illegal criminals in this country, yes, get them out of here. But wait a minute," "The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz." "Who gets to decide what's illegal and criminal when you're just going to violate the Supreme Court and democracy and the constitution and everything else in the name of, now you've got an armed militia that says every protest is dangerous. Even the peaceful ones. And you can frame it that way because the people are Brown." Le Batard added that it "feels like state militia (is) rubber-bulleting about just basic American freedoms." Jeremy Tache added, "This is a use of the military against our own people. If this was happening in any other country, we would be looking at that as one of the most horrifying things that could possibly happen." "This is exactly how it is that you circumvent what feels like American democracy to make sure that the others never unite like a union. You can always make them the others, and you'll always have white people on your side…" Le Batard continued. "Trying to make this country Whiter in a way that is overt, that is political, that is hateful, and allows you to keep the right to make all people other than you criminals based on whatever you make the laws, including just being Brown, not having a license or being a criminal, because you're 'just like all those other dirty Mexican rapists that we had to build a wall to keep out.'" "We can hide under the semantics argument of, well of course illegal people who are here committing crimes shouldn't be here," the former ESPN host added. "But that doesn't mean you should make all Brown people and Black people that." Los Angeles law enforcement has made dozens of arrests in the wake of days of protests and riots.
