Tekashi 6ix9ine Thrown Out Of Florida Club And Detained After Altercation
AllHipHop reported that Tekashi was enjoying a night out at Playpen 2 in Hialeah, Fla., on Sunday (July 6) before getting into a heated confrontation with another attendee. Police arrived on the scene and escorted both men out of the club, but the polarizing rapper allegedly wasn't cooperative.
The 'MALA' artist was placed in handcuffs given his furious outbursts toward several police officers, but he was eventually released. Despite other people not being fully cooperative with the police, there were no official arrests made. Check out the footage of Tekashi being detained below.
Fortunately for 6ix9ine, this situation didn't end in a worse manner. However, he is preparing to appear in court for violating the terms of his supervised release from jail after police found drugs and weapons in his home back in March. Specifically, they discovered MDMA pills, a bag with cocaine residue, fentanyl, marijuana, a handgun, and more illicit items. 6ix9ine was detained for six hours while his property was searched.
He owned up to drug possession, which led to prosecutors dropping his charges for possessing a firearm and fentanyl. This plea deal was projected to help him avoid a hearing set for July. He is in the midst of a five-year supervised release sentence after his 2019 federal conviction for racketeering, offenses related to firearms, and violent crimes stemming from his role in the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods crew.
Tekashi infamously got on the bad side of his Hip-Hop peers when he worked alongside federal authorities and testified against gang members he was associated with. As a result, his initial sentence got dropped to two years in prison and 1,000 hours of community service, in addition to his current stint under supervised release.

For Trump, cities like Washington are real estate in need of fixing up
'It's a natural instinct as a real estate person,' Trump told reporters as he compared his envisioned makeover of Washington to his recent gold-trimmed makeover of the White House. 'I was very good at that, and I was very good at fixing things up. I like fixing things up.' Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up He promised to rid Washington of trash, graffiti, potholes, homeless people and more, even as he ignored the fact that violent crime has fallen recently to a 30-year low. While Washington has struggled with youth crime, particularly robberies and carjackings, overall crime has fallen sharply in recent years. Advertisement In 2024, Washington had a violent crime rate of about 1,005 per 100,000 residents, according to data reported to the FBI. That is far less than cities with similar population sizes such as Memphis, Tennessee, and Detroit but also more than cities like Denver, Seattle and Louisville, Kentucky. Advertisement 'We're going to make it beautiful again,' Trump said. 'We're going to fix it with crime, and we're going to also, as we're doing that, we're going to start doing things that we know how to do, that I know how to do better than anybody, I guess, because of my experience from previous life.' In that previous life of real estate and business deals, Trump oversaw many failing businesses, including multiple declarations of bankrupt casinos in New Jersey. He was known to invoke crime in a way that stoked racial tension. In 1989, he bought newspaper advertisements, including in The New York Times, calling for New York state to adopt the death penalty after five Black and Latino men were arrested and later wrongfully convicted of the rape of a jogger. Even after the men, known as the Central Park Five, were exonerated, Trump never apologized. And while he has long denied any discrimination on his Trump properties, his family's business for years faced accusations of discriminating against Black tenants. Trump opened a $100 million countersuit accusing the Justice Department of defamation after the federal government in 1973 sued Trump Management for discriminating against Black people. As president, Trump has continued to stir up fears over violent crime and disorder, particularly in diverse metropolitan areas led by Democrats. And critics point out that he has done little to address underlying causes of poverty, crime and homelessness, noting that his policies have undercut safety net programs and added to inequality with tax cuts tilted toward the wealthy. Beyond Trump's actions, the federal government has significant sway over Washington. Trump can nominate judges and the U.S. attorney, who serves as the chief prosecutor in most criminal cases. Laws passed by the D.C. Council, as well as the city's budget, are subject to congressional approval. Advertisement The police union in D.C., which represents more than 3,000 officers, said in a statement that it supported the president's decision to take over the city's police force, insisting that it was needed to address 'violent crime surges, historic officer shortages and eroded morale.' But, the statement said, the takeover 'must be a temporary measure, with the ultimate goal of empowering a fully staffed and supported' police department. In his remarks Monday, Trump appeared to be espousing the widely debated 'broken windows' theory of policing — adopted by city officials during his time in New York — which is based on the idea that cracking down on low-level offenses can prevent serious crime. Trump recalled a lesson from his father, Fred Trump, who mentored him as a real estate developer. 'He used to say, 'Son, when you walk into a restaurant and you see a dirty front door, don't go in because if the front door is dirty, the kitchen's dirty also,'' Trump said. 'Same thing with the capital. If our capital's dirty, our whole country is dirty, and they don't respect us.' Trump has often seen the world through the lens of real estate and property values. On Monday, he said Russia had taken over 'very prime territory' from Ukraine. 'You know, in real estate we call it oceanfront property,' he said. 'That's always the most valuable property.' He characterized the humanitarian catastrophe in the Gaza Strip as a potential real estate opportunity. Days after entering office, Trump proposed seizing control of the territory and forcibly displacing the entire Palestinian population to revamp the land into 'the Riviera of the Middle East' for tourists from around the world. Advertisement When it comes to Washington, critics say Trump is misrepresenting a city he barely knows. 'The district is a vibrant city with a rich history, and strong and diverse communities,' said Skye Perryman, the president of Democracy Forward, a left-leaning nonprofit based in Washington. 'The president is again overreaching and engaging in draconian tactics that do not make anyone safer and threaten the civil liberties and freedom of the American people,' Perryman said. 'If this can happen in one city, it can happen in any city or community.' Maya Wiley, the president and CEO of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights and a city official in New York, said she saw a through line between Trump's remarks as a real estate developer in New York City and his approach to diverse cities as president. 'He has definitely shown that he hasn't changed much from those days,' Wiley said. 'What we're seeing in this rhetoric is not just about cities and them being dirty and crime ridden. They're always coded to people of color.' Monday was not the first time Trump tried to assert control over Washington. During his first term, Trump deployed a hodgepodge of federal agents and National Guard troops to Washington in response to racial justice protests that were mostly peaceful but included some acts of vandalism. His administration also dispatched military helicopters to conduct low-altitude maneuvers to disperse protesters that are usually reserved for combat zones. But those measures stand in stark contrast to his response to one of the most violent days in the city's recent history. Soon after taking office for his second term, Trump pardoned thousands of people who had committed crimes in Washington when they rioted at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

Baltimore mayor on cities called out by Trump: ‘The president could learn a lot from us'
Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott (D) accused President Trump of promoting 'racist viewpoints' after the president suggested Monday that his crime crackdown in Washington, D.C., could expand to other major U.S. cities, including Baltimore. Scott in an interview late Monday suggested that the White House should, instead, work with mayors who are already trying to drive down violent crime rates. 'The president could learn a lot from us instead of throwing things at us,' the Charm City mayor said on CNN's 'Laura Coates Live.' 'What he's doing is dog whistling through this right-wing propaganda and, quite frankly, racist viewpoints that they have about these cities and trying to convince the American people that what they know is not true.' Trump declared a public safety emergency in the nation's capital, paving the way for a federal takeover of the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) and the deployment of National Guard troops. Trump told reporters as he unveiled his latest anti-crime efforts that he was concerned about other American cities 'that are bad — very bad.' The president specifically called out Chicago, Los Angeles and New York, adding 'then you have of course, Baltimore and Oakland, [Calif.] — they don't even mention them anymore, they're so far gone.' Scott said on CNN that cities like Baltimore have been working to curb violence through community-driven initiatives that bring together law enforcement, legal advocates and the public. 'I think it's very notable that each and every one of the cities called out by the president has a Black mayor, and most of those cities are seeing historic lows in violent crime,' Scott said. 'The reality is no mayor is out here saying that we don't have to deal with crime. That's our number one issue that we deal with each and every day.' Scott said the Trump administration has not reached out to him about crime or what the city is doing to fight it. The White House didn't immediately respond to The Hill's request for comment on Scott's remarks, but Trump and his allies have pushed back on claims that violent crime rates are falling in cities he's targeted. 'I see too much violent crime being committed by young punks who think that they can get together in gangs and crews and beat the hell out of you or anyone else,' U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro said at the White House briefing. White House officials have also pointed out that a D.C. police commander is under investigation for allegedly making changes to crime statistics in his district. D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser (D) and MPD Chief Pamela Smith declined to comment on the case during a separate press briefing Monday, citing the ongoing investigation. Trump compared his anti-crime initiative to his migrant crackdown at the U.S. southern border. 'What you need is rules and regulations and you need the right people to implement them, and we have the right people here,' Trump told reporters at the White House on Monday. The head of the D.C. Police Union backed up the president's move in a statement.

Linsey Davis of 'ABC News' reveals she has uterine fibroids, will get hysterectomy
"ABC News" anchor Linsey Davis is revealing for the first time her yearslong struggle with uterine fibroids. The "World News Tonight" weekend anchor explained during a "ABC News Live Prime" conversation with singer Tamar Braxton and model and actress Cynthia Bailey on Monday, Aug. 12, that she has powered through painful and severe fatigue behind the scenes due to fibroids. Davis hopes to help women by revealing her fibroid battle. "I feel like if there is an 80% instance in anyone's health, it should be a priority," she said. She also said a hysterectomy was the right path forward for her. "I guess I just want to be final. You just want to be finished," Davis said. "It causes me enough angst and grief, and planning my day differently, accordingly, that I really feel like I'm ready to be finished with this journey." What are fibroids? Uterine fibroids are a type of noncancerous tumor that grows in and on the uterus, according to the Cleveland Clinic. The common diagnosis can also result in back pain, frequent urination or pain during sex. Small fibroids rarely need treatment, while large fibroids can be treated with medication or surgery. Fibroids are more common and more severe in Black people, and up to 90% of Black people with a uterus have fibroids by age 50, according to the Mayo Clinic. Black women are also two to three times more likely to have frequent fibroids or experience complications, according to Michigan Medicine. A hysterectomy is an effective treatment for fibroids and is the only cure for uterine fibroids, but it typically prevents future pregnancies as it completely removes the uterus, according to the Cleveland Clinic. Davis, 47, has one son, Ayden, 11. Who is Linsey Davis? What to know about ABC anchor moderating Harris-Trump debate Davis said she also experienced intense bloating due to her uterine fibroids. She said during coverage of the Oscars in March, people online began to speculate she was pregnant. Both Braxton and Bailey said they also experienced severe bloating. Lupita Nyong'o joins fight to fund fibroids research: 'I no longer want to remain silent' "I stayed on the celebrity baby bump alert. Like I was always giving '(I'm) pregnant with imaginary children' because of my fibroids," Bailey said. "And I was shutting down on rumors, I was like, 'I'm not pregnant, I have fibroids.'"
