Joe Biden's NYC Fundraiser Onstage w/ Obama, Clinton Interrupted by Pro-Palestine Protesters
President Joe Biden's fundraiser in NYC alongside ex-Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton got interrupted by pro-Palestine protesters ... who made a big scene in an iconic venue.
Joe and co. were onstage Thursday night at Radio City Music Hall, where Stephen Colbert was hosting them and asking them questions -- this in front of a live audience, with seats for this fundraiser going for a pretty penny ... starting as low as $225 and going as high as $500k.

While they were talking about Jan. 6, a woman who'd made her way into the building somehow -- mind you, lots of protesters were already outside -- started screaming out loud.
Larry David Trump's a Little Baby, Sociopath, Insane, Sick Man
Larry David ripped into Donald Trump for refusing to accept the results of the 2020 election ... saying the former Prez has upended 250 years of democracy, as LD explodes in anger.
The "Curb Your Enthusiasm" star sounded off on "Who's Talking to Chris Wallace?" ... where the accuser could not hide his disdain and contempt for 45.
Larry says ... "He’s such a sociopath, he’s so insane, he just couldn’t admit to losing. And we know he lost. He knows he lost. And look how he’s fooled everybody, he’s convinced all these people that he didn’t lose. He’s such a sick man. He’s so sick."
Bill Maher Warning to Dems ... Kill Identity Politics, Or You're Gonna Lose
Bill Maher makes a super compelling case that pandering to racial groups is a sure way to lose elections ... because all these identities in America are now blurred beyond recognition.
The 'Real Time' host lasered in on Democrats who try to sell voters on what makes us different, and he says they're barking up the wrong tree because our country has blended.
As BM says, 1 out of 5 newlyweds are now in interracial marriages, which produce multiracial children, and that's just one of many examples he offers.
Beyond that, Bill notes we no longer fit into nice, neat boxes. For example, the #1 country song is Beyonce's. Forty-one percent of Dems live with someone who owns a gun. And, as Maher muses, there's even a "Gays for Trump" org because everybody knows gays love a good drag queen!
Maher says it's no surprise Joe Biden's losing Black voters by the day, because they and other groups generally no longer make identity the trigger for casting ballots.
It's a super interesting take ... have a look.

Exclusive

Fat Joe's rubbing elbows with some of the top politicians in the country ... specifically Vice President Kamala Harris -- and he's sharing his solutions for some of the country's greatest issues, too.
The outspoken rapper met up with the VP on Friday afternoon and led a panel regarding criminal justice reform featuring Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear and White House Director of the Office of Public Engagement Steve Benjamin.
The convo -- which featured a few other prominent criminal justice advocates and three recipients of marijuana-related pardons -- lasted about an hour and featured lots of personal anecdotes from those pardoned.
We're told Fat Joe expressed his gratitude for how his journey through hip hop had landed him in a close relationship with the vice president -- who he apparently met through his healthcare reform group Power To The Patients.
BTW ... we're told Joe actually sat down for a private conversation with Kamala where the two talked about healthcare price transparency and other issues close to Joe's heart.
Harris isn't the only exec who Joe's spoken to in recent days ... the Bronx-bred rapper also caught up with President Joe Biden himself -- following the Prez's SOTU address, which took some shots at Donald Trump.
Sources told us members of both parties wanted a piece of Fat Joe after he dapped up Biden ... with reps on both sides of the aisle rushing to the man for an autograph.
Fat Joe's been on the advocacy grind for a while now ... and we even talked to him about Power to the Patients on "TMZ Live" back in January.
It seems Joe's now sharing his opinion on all types of issues it seems ... and hey, maybe Kamala could use a running mate in 2028? 👀

JIMMY KIMMEL SE BURLA DE DONALD TRUMP EN EL ESCENARIO DE LOS OSCARS
Jimmy Kimmel se metió con Donald Trump durante los Oscar el domingo por la noche.
Jimmy estaba en la recta final como anfitrión de la 96 ª edición de los Premios de la Academia y aprovechó de dejar algunas cosas claras sobre Trump.
No hace falta decir que Trump no fue muy elogioso, llamando a Jimmy el "PEOR ANFITRIÓN" de la historia mientras se cagaba en su monólogo de apertura.
Trump también escribió que la Academia debería "deshacerse" de Jimmy y tal vez reemplazarlo con "otro talento barato de ABC, George Slopanopoulos".
Por supuesto, Trump se refería al comentarista político de ABC News George Stephanopoulos. Incluso aseguró que el presentador de televisión haría que todos en los Oscar se vieran "más grandes, fuertes y glamorosos".
Pero Jimmy no lo dejó así y continuó bromeando, sacando su teléfono celular para leerle los posteos de Trump a todo el público.
Jimmy sacó a relucir lo obvio: "A ver si adivinas qué expresidente acaba de publicar eso en Truth Social".
A continuación remató: "Gracias, presidente Trump. Gracias por mirar. Me sorprende... ¿No ha pasado ya su tiempo en la cárcel?".
Todo el mundo se partió de risa con la broma de Jimmy, burlándose de las cuatro acusaciones criminales de Trump.
Trump y el actual presidente Joe Biden se enfrentan en la carrera por la Casa Blanca en 2024. Hollywood ahora está entrando en todo el drama.
Jimmy Kimmel Mocks Donald Trump On Oscars Stage ... After Ex-Prez Slams Performance
Jimmy Kimmel got into it with Donald Trump during the Oscars Sunday night ... with each taking major jabs at one another for all to see.
Jimmy was in the home stretch hosting the 96th Academy Awards and read a Truth Social post from Trump reviewing the comedian's performance.
Needless to say, Trump wasn't very complimentary, calling Jimmy the "WORST HOST" ever while crapping on his opening monologue.
Trump also wrote the Academy should "get rid" of Jimmy and perhaps replace him with "another washed up but cheap ABC talent George Slopanopoulos."
Of course, Trump was referring to ABC News political commentator George Stephanopoulos. He even took a shot at George's height, saying the TV anchor would make everyone at the Oscars look "bigger, stronger, and more glamorous."
But Jimmy didn't take the insults lying down ... he threw it right back at Trump, pulling out his cell phone and reading 45's post to the A-list crowd while on stage.
Jimmy first brought up the obvious ... "See if you can guess which former president just posted that on Truth Social."
He then delivered the punchline, "Thank you, President Trump. Thank you for watching. I’m surprised … isn’t it past your jail time?"
Everyone laughed their butts off at Jimmy's joke, mocking Trump's four criminal indictments.
Trump and current President Joe Biden are going toe-to-toe in the 2024 race for the White House. Hollywood is now getting in on all the drama.

Scarlett Johansson on 'SNL' Nails Sen. Katie Britt ... 'Craziest Bitch' in Target Parking Lot!!!
As everyone expected, Sen. Katie Britt was roasted in the 'SNL' cold open, but the surprise was Scarlett Johansson making a cameo to fill the role, and nailing the hilarious send-up of Britt's State of the Union response.
ICYMI .. the junior Alabama Senator went viral after her GOP response to President Biden's Thursday night SOTU address. The speech -- delivered from her kitchen for some reason -- struck most as oddly performative.
Scarlett still managed to take it over the top, saying, "I’ll be performing an original monologue called ‘This country is hell.’ You see, I’m not just a senator. I’m a wife, a mother and the craziest bitch in the Target parking lot.”
She also perfectly mocked Sen. Britt's facial expressions, hand movements and even some questionable fact-checking with lines like ... "I’m going to do a pivot out of nowhere into a shockingly violent story about sex trafficking. Rest assured, every detail about it is real except the year, where it took place, and who was president when it happened.”
On Thursday night, the Senator shared a story of a woman she met in Texas who told her about being sex trafficked by the cartels. While Britt blamed President Biden’s border policies, the Washington Post reported the woman’s experiences took place in Mexico during President George W. Bush's administration.
One of Scarlett's best lines in the skit imitated the QVC host tone of Sen. Britt's speech -- out of nowhere, she started hawking the diamond cross necklace she was wearing, saying, "Goes with anything, and you can wear it from da’ church to da’ club.”
As you know, Scarlett is married to 'SNL' cast member Colin Jost -- so, yeah, this might be a bit of nepotism ... but, for once, no one seems too upset about it. Well, except maybe Sen. Britt.

Presidente Biden Netanyahu necesita un momento de iluminación...
El presidente Joe Biden no está guardando tanta privacidad para expresar su frustración con Benjamin Netanyahu y la forma en que está manejando la guerra en el Medio Oriente, diciendo que el primer ministro de Israel tiene que ver la luz.
El Presidente estuvo hablando con el senador Michael Bennet de Colorado en la Cámara el jueves después de pronunciar el discurso sobre el Estado de la Unión, y parece que no se dio cuenta de que estaba siendo grabado por un camarógrafo sigiloso.
Se puede decir que Joe estaba tratando de tener una conversación privada, lo que queda en evidencia por lo que dijo, que fue recogido por un micrófono: "Le dije, Bibi, y no repitas esto, pero tú y yo vamos a tener un come to Jesus moment'".
Joe, obviamente, estaba usando una frase que significa llegar a una gran realización acerca de algo, pero la frase está levantando sospechas, pues Benjamin Netanyahu es judío.
Parece que su personal se dio cuenta de que estaba hablando mal porque un ayudante se apresuró y al parecer le dijo al oído que se callara. Joe hizo exactamente eso, o eso parece.
Biden fue presionado sobre esto el viernes cuando se preparaba para abordar el Air Force One para un viaje de campaña en Filadelfia, donde los periodistas le preguntaron por qué hizo ese comentario.
En un primer momento, Biden explicó que no lo dijo en su discurso, pero cuando los periodistas le preguntaron acerca de lo que dijo a los legisladores después del discurso, culpó a los medios de comunicación por "escuchar a escondidas".
En su SOTU, Biden anunció que está dirigiendo el ejército de Estados Unidos para instalar un muelle junto al mar en Gaza que permitirá una afluencia masiva de ayuda para los palestinos. Pero escuchen, suena como que quiere que Netanyahu haga más en términos de ayuda humanitaria también.
Esto coincide con lo que su administración ha estado pidiendo últimamente, es decir, un alto al fuego.
President Biden Netanyahu Needs 'Come To Jesus' Moment ... Hot Mic Eavesdroppin'
President Joe Biden is not-so-privately expressing frustration with Benjamin Netanyahu and how he's handling the war in the Middle East ... saying Israel's PM needs to see the light -- as in Christ.
The Prez was talking to Senator Michael Bennet from Colorado on the House chamber floor Thursday after his State of the Union address -- which he didn't seem to realize was being recorded by a stealthy cameraman.
You can tell Joe was trying to have a private convo -- evidenced by what he said, which got picked up on a hot mic... "I told him, Bibi, and don't repeat this, but you and I are going to have a 'come to Jesus' meeting."
Joe obviously was using a phrase that means coming to some grand realization about something -- but the phrasing is raisin' some eyebrows ... y'know, since BN is Jewish.
It seems like his staff realized he was misspeaking -- 'cause an aide rushed over and got into his ear, seemingly telling him to zip it and move on. Joe did exactly that, or so it seems.
Biden was pressed about this on Friday when he was getting ready to board Air Force One for a campaign trip to Philadelphia ... with reporters asking him why he made the comment.
At first, Biden says he didn't say it in his speech -- but when reporters ask him about what he told lawmakers after the SOTU ... he blamed the media for "eavesdropping."
In his SOTU, Biden announced he's directing the U.S. military to install a seaside pier in Gaza that will allow for a massive influx of aid to Palestinians ... but take a listen, it sounds like he wants Netanyahu to do more in terms of humanitarian aid too.
This jibes with what his administration has been calling for lately -- namely, a ceasefire.

State of the Union Biden Mingled with Gen-Z Influencers Prez Wants to Reach Youth

President Biden invited a bunch of Gen-Z influencers to the White House to watch his State of the Union address -- and one person in the mix has the inside scoop on how it went.
Tiffany Aliche -- an author and renowned financial expert -- came on "TMZ Live" Friday to break down what it was like Thursday evening at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. with all these young whipper-snappers and Tiktokers around ... 'cause there were a crap ton of them.
Aliche -- who's built a massive following on Instagram and TikTok educating people about money -- tells us that she was one of over 60 influencers who attended the highly publicized evening ... and that there was a mix of internet personalities in attendance.
So, no ... it wasn't just political influencers -- fashionistas were there, too, it seems.
The message was clear for those in attendance ... Biden and his staffers wanted to reach Gen Z -- with Tiffany recalling that POTUS praised the content creators as "critical" to his campaign since they have a massive reach. Out with the old, as they say!
On whether this influencer effort will sway young voters to vote for Biden this fall ... Tiffany isn't certain -- but she does think it helped with raising awareness.
As for the vetting process required ... Tiffany says she was surprised that she wasn't asked about her political preference before being invited. The only conditions ... respect the White House as a historical building and a military compound.
She didn't even have to post if she didn't want to -- which sat well with Tiffany.
Other influencers invited to the White House ahead of the State of the Union included strategist Keith Edwards, activist Aaron Parnas, and "The Real Friends of WeHo" star Joey Zauzig.
Like Tiffany says ... it was a mixed group, and on its face -- a smash hit too!

Donald Trump Responde al discurso de Biden Con montaje en Snapchat
Donald Trump se burló de Joe Biden después del discurso del Estado de la Unión del jueves, comparándolo con un personaje de dibujos animados en un video que publicó en su plataforma de medios sociales usando algunos filtros.
Como era de esperar, Donald Trump tomó la ruta más infantil para responder al discurso de más de una hora del presidente Biden en el Capitolio, publicando una breve compilación de Joe en el podio, con su Vicepresidenta sentada atrás, con un montón de filtros tontos.
Por extraño que parezca, el clip de 27 segundos subido a Truth Social utiliza imágenes del discurso de Biden del año pasado, ninguna de este año, lo cual es extraño.
En cualquier caso, el video junta cuatro escenas filtradas y animadas de Biden pronunciando el discurso de 2023 con Kamala Harris detrás, y los hizo verse bastante ridículos, como el tipo de cosas que un niño de 14 años podría hacer en su tiempo libre.
Algunas de las imágenes muestran a Biden y Harris con los ojos saltones y sus caras congeladas, así como con trenzas y sombreros. En otra imagen, Biden aparece como un perro greñudo y Pinocho.
Por supuesto, esto es relevante porque Trump se enfrentará a Biden en las elecciones presidenciales de 2024. Si la respuesta de Donald es un indicador, nos espera una gran cantidad de enfrentamientos durante esta campaña, por no hablar de bromas y críticas.

En cuanto al discurso de Biden sobre el Estado de la Unión, la mayoría de la gente del Partido Demócrata pensó que fue apasionado y entusiasta. El 46 Prez habló de una serie de temas, incluyendo la guerra en Gaza, Roe V. Wade, la invasión rusa de Ucrania y las amenazas a la democracia.
Biden también atacó a su rival del Partido Republicano sin nombrarlo. Potus citó a su "predecesor" diciéndole a Vladimir Putin: "Haz lo que te dé la gana" en Ucrania.
Los republicanos reprendieron el discurso duramente, calificándolo de enojado y causar división. Como hemos dicho estamos en una larga temporada electoral.
