Popular American right-wing commentator, Rumble livestreamer and vocal critic of Israel's actions in Gaza, Nick Fuentes, 26, was targeted in a failed assassination overnight Wednesday, at his home in Berwyn, a suburb of Chicago, Illinois.

In a security footage posted on social media by Fuentes, a man in tan pants, a blue jacket, and a white motorcycle helmet walks up the steps to the building's front door with a handgun and crossbow drawn.

After setting down the crossbow, the assassin rings the doorbell and lingers for a few seconds before yelling, "Yo, Nick!."

Fuentes, who was apparently live on Rumble hosting his 'America First' show at the time, said in an X post Thursday, that the assassin was armed with a pistol, crossbow, and incendiary devices.

Just before 11:40 p.m., Berwyn police responded to a report of a male with a gun in the 1800 block of Home Avenue on Wednesday night, police said in a statement.

Officers located the man, identified Thursday afternoon as John R. Lyons, 24, of Westchester, but he ran off. Lyons then forced entry into a home in the 1800 block of Wenonah Avenue and shot two dogs to death, according to police.

The resident of the home and owner of the dogs, Scott Wishecoby, said he found Lyons in his basement. “When I turned on the light the guy was standing at the end of the basement and just started shooting," he told reporters. "He shot, shot, shot. I blocked my son and I told him to get upstairs and get his mother and get out of the house. He ran. He was fast, and by the time I was running he was chasing me through the basement shooting.”

His wife and son got out of the house and ran to a neighbors. Officers later saw Lyons head eastbound into a yard back in the 1800 block of Home Avenue and proceeded to shoot at officers, according to police. They returned fire and fatally shot him, police said.

Officials believe the gunman killed three people earlier that day in the central Illinois town of Mahomet, about 140 miles south of Berwyn. The victims were identified as three family members: Sara Mason, 26, Janis Mason, 61, and Caleb Mason, 23. It's not clear yet why he targeted them.

"Last night an armed killer made an attempt on my life at my home, which was recently doxed on this platform," Fuentes wrote on X. "The gunman carried a pistol, crossbow, and incendiary devices. I believe he intended to kill me. He is now dead. I am okay!"

Referencing the deaths of his neighbors' dogs, Nick wrote, "While heartbreaking, it could have been so unimaginably worse. God have mercy. Doxing is not a game."

Fuentes' home address was doxxed last month after his viral "Your body, my choice," post on X, following Donald Trump's win in the presidential election.

Using the doxxed address, triggered Jewish Zionist and far-left activist Marla Rose went to Fuentes' house on November 10, to violently confront him about the post.

Rose recorded herself attempting to ring Fuentes' doorbell before he opened the door and allegedly pepper-sprayed her.

Fuentes was arrested on November 27 and charged with battery, a move widely criticized by many on social media who argue that the livestreamer was well within his right to defend himself and his property from violent and unhinged trespassers like Rose. He was scheduled to appear in court on Thursday.

The 26-year-old said he planned to move following the incident. He asked his fans for donations to help him finance his relocation and rebuilding of his studio. Fuentes has been deplatformed and banned from most social media and financial companies over his criticism of Israel.

The Illinois State Police has taken over the investigation of Wednesday's incident.

Elon Musk, Trump 'Big Beautiful Bill' Feud Fallout

The feud between U.S. President Donald Trump and Elon Musk escalated Thursday, with Musk accusing Trump of having ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and criticizing Trump's "big, beautiful" spending bill. Musk alleged that Trump is in the Epstein files, which is why they have not been made public, and suggested that Trump would not have won the election without him.

The White House's Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, calls Musk’s claim “an unfortunate episode” driven by his dissatisfaction with the bill’s lack of EV subsidies. A source notes Trump banned Epstein from Mar-a-Lago and references the February 2025 release of flight logs mentioning Trump.

The conflict began when Musk criticized the "big, beautiful" tax and spending bill, calling it an "abomination" and urging to keep electric vehicle (EV) and solar incentives while removing wasteful spending Trump responded by expressing disappointment in Musk, stating that he was "surprised" by Musk's criticism.

During a meeting with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, Thursday, Trump addressed Musk’s criticism publicly, saying he’s “very disappointed” in Musk, who “knew the inner workings of this bill better than almost anybody.” Trump claims Musk’s objections stem from the removal of the $7,500 EV tax credit, which he says Musk knew about for months. He suggests Musk may have “Trump Derangement Syndrome.”

Trump also mocked Musk’s appearance, referencing a recent black eye (attributed to Musk’s son) and questioning why he didn’t cover it with makeup.

In a social media post, Trump threatened to cancel Musk’s government contracts, including those for SpaceX and Tesla, stating, “The easiest way to save money in our Budget, Billions and Billions of Dollars, is to terminate Elon’s Governmental Subsidies and Contracts.” He also claimed he asked Musk to leave DOGE because he was “wearing thin.”

Escalating the feud Musk responded by saying SpaceX would begin decommissioning its Dragon spacecraft, indicating a potential withdrawal from government contracts.

Musk then took to X to make his accusations about the Epstein files. He wrote, "Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Mark this post for the future. The truth will come out."

oMI-YMPaKR1qGVLoLQtxaxqzj8LmpgYKPh7sJ8DfmjdkhNZ428Qf3P8NNZiykZzprloLt_pxavtxt9ZGMrilT738j_5rvJgFpXjgFA6OCFsMxKUWJ3SAHFoyH6aYxyJ1Nw=w1280

The White House and Trump's supporters defended Trump, with the White House press secretary describing Musk's comments as "unfortunate" and suggesting that Musk was unhappy with the bill's content. Trump also suggested that Musk was upset about the removal of EV subsidies and mandates, which could affect Musk's Tesla business.

Despite the heated exchanges, Trump downplayed the situation to reporters and instead referenced his policy implementations, saying, "Oh it's okay, it's going very well, never done better."

Throughout the day, Musk's net worth dropped significantly, losing approximately $27 billion, although he remained the world's richest man with a net worth of around $388 billion.

Speaking to reporters by phone Friday, Trump said in response to reports of possible phone call with Musk, "I'm not even thinking about Elon. He's got a problem. The poor guy’s got a problem....No. I won't be speaking to him for a while I guess, but I wish him well."

“Honestly I’ve been so busy working on China… working on Russia… working on Iran.. I’m not thinking about Elon musk .. I just wish him well....,“ Trump later told reporters. "I hope he does well with Tesla."

Trump Announces Travel Ban, Restrictions On 19 Countries

President Donald Trump signed a proclamation on Wednesday, restricting travel to the United States from 12 countries and imposing partial restrictions on 7 others. The countries fully banned from entering the U.S. are Afghanistan, Myanmar, Chad, Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen.

Countries subject to partial restrictions include Burundi, Cuba, Laos, Sierra Leone, Togo, Turkmenistan, and Venezuela.

The ban takes effect on June 9, 2025.

The proclamation includes exemptions for lawful permanent residents (green card holders); existing visa holders (visas issued before June 9, 2025, will not be revoked); Afghans eligible for Special Immigrant Visas (SIVs) who assisted the U.S. government; diplomats, athletes (e.g., for the World Cup or Olympics), and dual nationals with passports from non-restricted countries and individuals whose entry serves U.S. national interests, evaluated case-by-case.

The ban is subject to revision if countries improve vetting or security cooperation, and additional countries could be added if new threats emerge.

These restrictions aim to enhance national security and counterterrorism efforts by addressing deficiencies in the information needed to assess potential security threats posed by nationals of these countries.

Dave Portnoy Had A Meltdown In Heated Debate With Cohost About 'Jew Jokes,' Free speech

Barstool founder Dave Portnoy had a heated back and forth with his podcast's cohost Kirk Minihane over 'Jew jokes.'

Portnoy faced backlash recently on social media, after firing two waitresses and taking further action against some college students involved in an incident at his Barstool Sansom Street bar in Philadelphia, where a sign that read "Fuck the Jews," was displayed.

"Shut the fuck up you bald fuck" Portnoy screamed at Minihane during a recent The Unnamed Show episode after Minihane criticized Portnoy's approach to 'Jew jokes.'

Minihane argued that Americans and especially comedians have a right to free speech and to make jokes. While Portnoy suggested that given the war in Gaza and public anti-Israel sentiment online, 'Jew jokes' should not be allowed and offenders must be prosecuted.

"Shut up!... You work for me!" Portnoy screamed at Minihane who responded "Sure. You bet. For now..."

"Quit! I'll save $500,000." Portnoy said.

Minihane then asked "Is this a show or not a show? We can't have a conversation?"

"You're an idiot. You're literally saying people should be allowed to make Jew jokes whenever they want." Portnoy shot back.
