Auburn basketball coach accuses Carville of spreading ‘hatred' with statements about Jewish donors
Auburn men's basketball coach Bruce Pearl sharply criticized Democratic strategist James Carville on Friday over his recent statements about wealthy Jewish donors who have left the Democratic Party. During an appearance on Fox News Channel, the accomplished coach and outspoken Israel advocate ripped Carville for saying earlier this week that wealthy Jewish people were not leaving the Democratic Party because of antisemitism, but rather because they just want a 'f—— tax cut' from the Republicans. 'When you say that wealthy Jews don't want to pay their taxes, that just commits to the Jew hatred and the things that are out there,' Pearl told anchor Bill Hemmer on 'America's Newsroom,' after shaking his head when the show played Carville's remarks. Carville made the comments during the Wednesday episode of his 'Politics War Room' podcast, bashing Jewish donors who decided to stop giving to Democratic politicians and instead donate to President Donald Trump's 2024 campaign after seeing the rash of antisemitism that has sprung up on college campuses and that some Democratic luminaries have supported. The former Bill Clinton advisor didn't buy that reason for the switch, arguing wealthy Jewish donors were looking for an excuse so they could vote for Trump and benefit from his tax cuts. 3 Carville made the comments during the Wednesday episode of his 'Politics War Room' podcast. Politics War Room 'And I hear this all the time… a lot of really wealthy Jewish fundraisers — And they say, 'Look James, I'm a Democrat, but I can't be a part of the party because of what happened at Columbia.' What the f— did the Democrats have to do with what happened at Columbia by the way?' Carville asked. He continued, 'And they tell me that, they look me right in the eye… No, you just want your f—— tax cut.' 3 Head Coach Bruce Pearl of the Auburn Tigers reacts during the second half in the Final Four game of the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament against the Florida Gators at the Alamodome on April 05, 2025 in San Antonio, Texas. Getty Images Pearl responded on Fox, stating, 'The truth is that Jewish voters are abandoning the Democratic Party because they've become increasingly extreme, and they indulge terrorist sympathizers. You just look at these campuses, you just look at these college graduations.' 'For James Carville to say this, that's an antisemitic trope. Now I don't know whether he's antisemitic or not,' he continued. Pearl also shot back at Carville's suggestion that Jewish Americans are looking for ways to pay fewer taxes, saying 'successful Jewish people' – including himself – pay their fair share. 3 James Carville poses for a portrait at the 27th SCAD Savannah Film Festival on October 31, 2024 in Savannah, Georgia. Getty Images 'So if this is the Democratic leadership, and if he's going to call out wealthy Jews like that,' he added, 'guess what, we're not – they're not staying in the Democratic Party.' Pearl later praised Trump for his support of the Jewish community and Israel, saying, 'There has been no president in the history of our country that has done more to support the state of Israel than Donald Trump.' Fox News Digital reached out to Carville for comment.

Musk jokes he might change his stance on Trump's ‘big, beautiful bill' over Adam Schiff's praise
Elon Musk appeared to jokingly reconsider his stance on the Big Beautiful Bill after a California Democrat came to his defense. Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., wrote on X that 'I can't believe I'm saying this – but [Elon Musk] is right.' However, that seems to be the last point on which the two agree. They both object to the Big Beautiful Bill, viewing it as full of pork. Musk opposes the bill because he believes it raises government spending too much, while Schiff objects to what he calls its 'far-right' content, which he describes as 'dangerous.' Musk fired off a response rejecting Schiff's alleged praise of the tech billionaire's position on the bill. 'Hmm, few things could convince me to reconsider my position more than Adam Schiff agreeing with me!' On May 30, Musk's time with the administration came to an end, and he seemed to leave things on good terms. President Donald Trump thanked Musk for his work with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and gave him a symbolic 'key to the White House' as a parting gift. 4 Elon Musk appeared to jokingly reconsider his stance on Trump's Big Beautiful Bill after a California Democrat came to his defense. via REUTERS 4 'I can't believe I'm saying this – but [Elon Musk] is right,' Schiff wrote on X, leading to Musk responding with 'Hmm, few things could convince me to reconsider my position more than Adam Schiff agreeing with me!' SenAdamSchiff/X Following his departure from the White House, Musk said he was looking forward 'to continuing to be a friend and adviser to the president.' However, things took a sharp turn as a feud between Trump and Musk quickly heated up after the Tesla founder began publicly criticizing the Big Beautiful Bill. After the legislation passed the House, Musk said that the 'massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination. 'Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it.' Musk's criticisms received mixed reactions from Republicans, with some — such as Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, and Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky. — agreeing with him. Meanwhile, House Speaker Mike Johnson said he was 'surprised' by Musk's reaction and claimed the two of them had a good discussion about the bill. 4 Musk originally left the White House on good terms, but later began publicly criticizing the Big Beautiful Bill. Getty Images 4 Musk and Trump have carried their feud to their respective social media platforms, X and Truth Social. realDonaldTrump/TruthSocial Trump and Musk then began slugging it out on their respective social media platforms — X and Truth Social — as well as TV. The president told reporters in the Oval Office that he was 'very disappointed' with Musk and claimed that the former DOGE head knew what was in the bill, something that Musk denied. The heated exchange led to two explosive tweets, both of which were later deleted. In one post, Musk claimed Trump was mentioned in files relating to Jeffrey Epstein, the deceased sex offender and disgraced financier. In his other post, Musk endorsed a message that called for Trump's impeachment and said that Vice President J.D. Vance should take over. While it's unclear whether Trump and Musk will reconcile, for now it seems unlikely. Trump told Fox News chief political anchor Bret Baier that he was not interested in talking to Musk and that 'Elon's totally lost it.'

Los Angeles Democrats clash with Trump administration amid ICE crackdown
California Democrats and Trump administration officials are locked in a battle over a wave of immigration raids targeting Los Angeles this week, as protests over the detentions swelled in the Democratic stronghold amid President Donald Trump's broader immigration crackdown. Federal agents in tactical gear appeared during protests on Friday afternoon against the detention of over 40 individuals in immigration sweeps across Los Angeles earlier in the day, sparking clashes between officers and protesters that turned violent and resulted in police throwing tear gas canisters in the middle of the crowd. As the situation escalated, the president of the labor union SEIU California, David Huerta, was arrested, sustaining injuries during his detainment that required brief hospitalization, according to a statement from the union. A video of Huerta's arrest shows officers knocking the labor union president to the ground. Following Friday's clash, a group of Democratic members of Congress from the Los Angeles area said they were barred on Saturday from visiting the federal building where people in immigration detention were reportedly being held. 'The reports of what is happening inside the Roybal Federal Building is a complete violation of our laws and a stain on our values as a country,' Rep. Luz Rivas (D-Calif.) said in a statement. 'The Trump Administration blocked my colleagues and me from conducting our congressional oversight duties into the reported abuses and neglect that is taking place at this facility.' According to a statement from SEIU on Friday evening, Huerta was released from the hospital but remains in custody. U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli — a former lightning-rod Republican lawmaker — posted on X that he will be arraigned in federal court on Monday. 'What happened to me is not about me; This is about something much bigger,' Huerta said in a statement. 'Hard-working people, and members of our family and our community, are being treated like criminals. We all collectively have to object to this madness because this is not justice. This is injustice. And we all have to stand on the right side of justice.' Meanwhile, Trump administration officials sought to cast Friday's events as a violent attack on federal immigration officials, spurred by Democratic politicians who have been outspoken in their condemnation of the administration's immigration policy. Department of Homeland Security spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement that the situation that unfolded was a direct result of the 'repeated vilification and demonization of ICE' by Democratic politicians, including California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass. 'The violent targeting of law enforcement in Los Angeles by lawless rioters is despicable and Mayor Bass and Governor Newsom must call for it to end. The men and women of ICE put their lives on the line to protect and defend the lives of American citizens,' McLaughlin said, adding that the 'violent rhetoric' of 'sanctuary politicians is beyond the pale.' ICE acting Director Todd Lyons also blasted local law enforcement, claiming it took the Los Angeles Police Department over two hours to respond 'despite being called multiple times.' Other administration officials also snapped back at Newsom and Bass, casting the two Democrats as supporters of violence against federal authorities. After Newsom wrote a post to X in support of Huerta, saying that 'no one should ever be harmed for witnessing government action,' the official DHS account replied that 'shoving ICE officers is not 'witnessing government action.' It's assaulting law enforcement,' adding that 'Governor Newsom must call on this violence to end — not glorify rioters that endanger our brave law enforcement.' Bass got similar treatment from FBI Director Kash Patel on social media after she released a statement saying she was 'deeply angered' by the detentions, and that 'these tactics sow terror in our communities and disrupt basic principles of safety in our city.' 'We will not stand for this,' she captioned the posted statement on X. Patel came back with an unequivocal response on Saturday. 'We will,' he wrote in a post replying to the mayor. As outcry poured in on Saturday from major liberal organizations — including labor union giant AFL-CIO and the Southern California chapter of the ACLU — condemning the raids and demanding Huerta's release, ICE doubled down on its position and warned that Friday's events were by no means the end of their immigration clampdown. 'These violent rioters will be held accountable if they harm federal officers, and make no mistake, ICE will continue to enforce our nation's immigration laws and arrest criminal illegal aliens. Sanctuary politicians would do well to remember that impeding our efforts only endangers their communities, law enforcement officers, and the detainees they claim to support,' the ICE statement read.
