Antonio Brown drops explosive Epstein remark on Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin at Alaska Pursuing Peace summit
On Sunday, August 17, 2025, ex-NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown made a controversial statement on social media. Targeting President Donald Trump and President Vladimir Putin, he posted then quickly deleted a tweet.
The post referred to them standing 'over the bed after an Epstein party.' This came as Trump and Putin met in Alaska last Friday for the 'Pursuing Peace' summit, aimed at pushing forward peace in Ukraine. It was a bold, sarcastic comment meant to stir discussion.
There was already a social media frenzy earlier in June 2025 when Elon Musk tweeted that Trump seemed in the Epstein documents. With strange, all-caps memes and disordered postings, Antonio Brown built on. That episode revealed Brown's internet presence as erratic.
He often uses his platform to provoke or surprise; this time, aiming his words at two powerful leaders and touching on a dark, widely speculated storyline. The mix of humor and pointed suggestion made it impossible to ignore.

From Paris to Alaska: Why Putin's poop always travels back with him
Russian President Vladimir Putin's bodyguards collect his poop when he travels abroad and carry it back to Russia. This unusual practice is done to stop foreign governments from studying his waste to learn about his health. This time, Putin reportedly travelled with his 'poop suitcases' to the Alaska Summit in the United States. Reports said that his bodyguards gather his stool and take it back to Russia whenever he travels overseas. The practice was noted during Putin's trip to France in 2017 and his visit to Saudi Arabia in 2019. The Independent report says the aim is to prevent foreign intelligence agencies from getting samples of Putin's poop that could reveal medical details. Ex-BBC journalist Farida Rustamova also confirmed hearing of such incidents, saying Putin sometimes used 'a private bathroom' or even a portable toilet while travelling abroad. She cited an unnamed source a saying the president had carried out the practice since the beginning of his leadership. Putin's health has been a subject of speculation, especially since Russia launched the Ukraine war in 2022. Some unconfirmed reports suggest he may be suffering from cancer or Parkinson's disease, though the Kremlin has denied such claims. The idea of using human waste for intelligence is not new. Joseph Stalin is reported to have ordered secret tests on the poop of Chinese leader Mao Zedong in 1949 to build a psychological profile. During the Cold War, British agents were also said to have studied Soviet soldiers' used toilet paper for information.

The Veep Election: BJP's Tamil Nadu Pick, INDIA Bloc's Response, The Numbers
New Delhi: The 'battle' to replace Jagdeep Dhankhar as Vice President of India won't be much of a contest given the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance has the votes (with nearly three dozen to spare) to ensure its nominee - Maharashtra Governor CP Radhakrishnan - carries the day. Between the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha, the BJP has 422 MPs, including those from NDA members, and can count on support from non-aligned partners, including ex-Andhra Chief Minister Jagan Reddy's YSR Congress Party. Mr Radhakrisnan and the BJP need only 394 votes to win. The opposition, i.e., the Congress-led INDIA bloc, will still name a candidate, of course, with DMK Rajya Sabha MP Tiruchi Siva on the shortlist, as is ex-ISRO scientist Mylswami Annadurai. But if there is little chance an opposition candidate can win, then why bother with an election? The opposition has said it will field a candidate to underscore democratic principles and unity within its ranks ahead of crucial elections in Bihar later this year and in Tamil Nadu, Bengal, and Assam in 2026. READ | India Bloc Meet On To Discuss Joint Vice President Candidate Also, the INDIA bloc knows it needs to respond to the BJP selecting a Tamil Nadu politician as a Vice President candidate. Sources told NDTV picking Mr Radhakrishnan - a veteran BJP leader from Tamil Nadu - was meant to allow the party to corner the state's ruling DMK into either supporting its pick (and breaking rank with the Congress and its INDIA bloc allies) or risk being bashed as 'anti-Tamil'. Publicly the DMK has pooh-pooed any notion that selecting a Vice President from its state makes the BJP pro-Tamil. Privately, sources said, the party has urged INDIA allies to counter Mr Radhakrishnan with a Tamil face of its own. The Congress has reportedly agreed to this tactic. To that end, earlier today there were rumours that Tiruchi Siva, a five-time parliamentarian, would be selected to stand against Mr Radhakrishnan. But a sticking point soon emerged. READ | BJP Veep Pick Will Cause Cracks In Opposition Bloc? It Depends On... Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's Trinamool - which refused to back the Congress' Margaret Alva in the 2022 Veep election, because it wanted a non-political face - has made a similar demand. Three years ago, refusing to give in, the Trinamool abstained, and Mr Dhankhar romped to an outsized win. This time around, aware it needs all the votes it can get, the INDIA bloc is likely to be more open to the Trinamool's demands, which may be why Mr Annadurai, a scientist, is on the shortlist. For the BJP, nominating Mr Radhakrishnan works on multiple levels. It sets up possible rifts between the DMK and the rest of the INDIA bloc if a Tamil face is not chosen, or between the Trinamool and the rest of the bloc if a non-political face is chosen. Either way the BJP has the numbers to make Mr Radhakrishnan - whom Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised as someone who "distinguished himself with his dedication, humility and intellect" - the third Vice President (and second with that surname) from Tamil Nadu.
