Jason Ralph Likes Shady Comment On David Corenswet
If you know Rachel Brosnahan, then you probably also know Rachel Brosnahan's husband, Jason Ralph. He's an actor who's been in stuff like The Magicians and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. He and Rachel have been married since 2018 after meeting on the set of 2014's I'm Obsessed With You: But You've Got To Leave Me Alone. Well, he's currently going viral after allegedly liking a VERRYYY weird comment about Rachel's chemistry with her Superman co-star David Corenswet. This summer, the two appeared in the superhero film as lovers Clark Kent and Lois Lane. Amid its press cycle, Jason received a shady fan comment on a random Instagram photo he posted that encouraged him to "stand up" for himself and "leave" Rachel because of her apparent chemistry with David. It said, "It's genuinely sad to see your career being tucked out to be remembered as a cuckold because your wife couldn't handle herself with her co-actor. Like bro.. let's have some self love and stand up for yourself man, leave her to be with him if she wants that much at the end of the day." Instead of shutting the comment down or, you know, ignoring it, Jason apparently liked it. He has since turned off the comments on the post, but not before fans grabbed the screenshot, which sparked tons of discourse this week when it was shared on Reddit. In short, people thought Jason's reaction was very bizarre. One person said his response was "so embarrassing." "What an idiot," commented another. "Even if they're having marital problems, why would you set up your wife to be attacked by a bunch of losers on the internet? I'm sure thats not gonna make things better." As another viewer stated, "Men are such strange creatures." "So weird," someone added, as another fan wondered, "What the actual F!" "They simply are not lonely enough," another person joked. At the same time, some people defended Jason, speculating that he liked the post jokingly or sarcastically. This viewer said, "I read the like as trolling the commenter, but could be wrong." Another agreed that it did seem "like a sarcastic like to me." "I truly think this is him liking it because it's absurd, not because he's like….hurting deeply," a third insisted. "I know David and his wife, and while I don't know Jason and Rachel personally, this tracks with Jason's social media vibe overall!" One more echoed that thought. "I don't think he liked it as a way of agreeing with the comment," they wrote. "My understanding of the like is that he was trolling the person, because the message is truly ridiculous and shows no understanding of what acting is." Even so, some people thought Jason's reaction was still very strange. "This is a weird thing to like sarcastically as opposed to replying sarcastically," one person said. Well! We've reached out to reps for Rachel and Jason to see if they have any comment on this, but in the meantime, tell me what you make of his Instagram behavior below!

Ivanka Trump, a student of jiu-jitsu, may play a key role in the White House UFC fight
Ivanka Trump has been sharpening her Brazilian jiu-jitsu skills. And while her moves may not be on display for the occasion, she'll play a key role when the Ultimate Fighting Championship, a professional mixed-martial arts organization, stages its fight on the White House grounds as part of America's 250th birthday celebrations. The first daughter will be involved in the planning of the historic UFC fight on July 4, 2026, a White House official told USA TODAY. President Donald Trump first introduced the idea of hosting the UFC fight last month while talking about special events around the country to celebrate the anniversary of American independence. 'I even think we're going to have a UFC fight,' he said during an Iowa rally last month. 'We're going to have a UFC fight. Think of this – on the grounds of the White House. We have a lot of land there,' he said. 'It's gonna be a championship fight, full fight, like 20-25,000 people.' Seeing 'oceanfront property' in Ukraine, Trump's real estate history shapes his presidency The president is known to be fascinated with the sport, having attended three UFC events since his election in November. At the Republican National Convention, Dana White, the president of the organization, introduced him to the crowd. White told CBS Mornings that he had chatted with Trump about the event on Aug. 11, and was planning to visit Washington, D.C., toward the end of the month to discuss details with the president and his daughter. 'He said, 'I want Ivanka in the middle of this,'' White told 'CBS Mornings.' 'So Ivanka reached out to me, and her and I started talking about the possibilities.' Meanwhile, Ivana Trump, also of fan of UFC – judging by her social media posts – has talked about her introduction into the martial arts. A mother of three, Ivanka Trump, said her whole family got involved after her daughter Arabella began taking jiu-jitsu lessons. 'It's almost like a moving meditation because the movements are so micro,' she said in an interview with the YouTube Jui Jitsu Channel. 'It's like three-dimensional chess. I'll watch Ultimate Fighting and … see some of these moves are so subtle. It's fun.' Ivanka Trump, who served as a senior advisor in the White House during her father's first term in office, has kept a low profile in the first six months of his second term. But that might be about to change. Swapna Venugopal Ramaswamy is a White House correspondent for USA TODAY. You can follow her on X @SwapnaVenugopal

Patrick Mahomes, Andy Reid weigh in on Taylor Swift's guest spot on 'New Heights' podcast
Patrick Mahomes and his wife, Brittany, had a sneak peek at the 'New Heights' podcast featuring Taylor Swift. 'I knew before y'all did because they called me after the podcast was done. They didn't call me, they called Brittany,' Mahomes told reporters Wednesday. 'I was in the back of the facetime. I'm obviously super excited. Just knowing Taylor (Swift) and seeing the process from just a little bit closer of how she makes the albums. It's gonna be amazing, (just) because of how much work she (Taylor Swift) puts into it. What better place to announce it than the New Heights podcast where I feel like she can be herself and showcase who she is, and I think people are going to be really excited to watch it tonight. 'I haven't seen it yet, I have seen a little bit of the clips like everybody else, but I'll be tuned in tonight at 7:00 (Eastern), so I'll be able to have something to watch here on this night off that I have.' While the Chiefs' star quarterback plans to watch the podcast, Andy Reid does not. However, the Chiefs' head coach predicted his grandkids would tune in. 'I'm like really old,' Reid said. 'My grandkids will be all over it. But I'm happy for them (Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce). Both of them like each other, and what a plus that is. They care about each other, and I think that's the most important thing. The older you get; you want these guys to have somebody they can settle down with and that whole deal. And so, I think it's a neat deal for them – both of them.' For the Swifties out there, Swift is expected to discuss her upcoming album during Wednesday's podcast. The show begins, as Patrick said, at 7 p.m. ET.
