President Biden's Secret Service keeps taking hits -- one of the agents on his detail was robbed at gunpoint during the president's fundraising trip to California.

While POTUS was rubbing elbows with celebs, Barack Obama and megadonors Saturday night in Hollywood, one of his off-duty Secret Service agents was hanging out in Tustin -- about an hour south in Orange County -- where he got a crash course in Cali crime.

Police say the agent had his bag stolen at gunpoint around 9:36 PM at a housing complex. The agent fired his gun during the incident, though it's unclear whether the robber was struck by that gunfire.

President Biden's age is once again a big talking point -- for his haters and his supporters -- after the Commander-in-Chief's awkward, and perhaps frozen, moment onstage during his L.A. fundraiser.

The prez was leaving the stage Saturday night with former President Barack Obama by his side, and Biden's detractors say his exit dragged on because he froze up ... forcing Obama to lead his once-vice president off the stage.

Biden, who had just wrapped up a 45-minute chat with Jimmy Kimmel and Obama at the Peacock Theater, was waving to the crowd, but seemed to have a blank stare ... until Obama intervened.

President Biden broke records Saturday night at a splashy, celeb-filled fundraiser in L.A..

The event -- which has already raked in $28 million -- was hosted by George Clooney and Julia Roberts, with lots of other big stars front and center.

Biden's former boss, Barack Obama was also there and sat with Biden to chit-chat about things on their mind, with the help of moderator Jimmy Kimmel.

Diddy's given back a major honor ... returning New York's Key to the City after Mayor Eric Adams requested it back in a letter, citing the Cassie assault video.

TMZ has obtained two letters -- one to Combs Entertainment LLC's office in New York and the other to his L.A. office -- addressed to Diddy from Mayor Adams saying he's "deeply disturbed" by the Cassie video.

Adams adds he stands with survivors of domestic abuse ... before noting the Key to the City is given to individuals who act as model citizens -- a standard the selection committee no longer feels Diddy meets.

Joe Biden's Los Angeles fundraiser is already attracting protests, and while law enforcement's not trying to be combative, they've got a message for protesters ... don't step out of line.

We spoke with sources in law enforcement who tell TMZ they're both ready for anything ... placing the president's safety as their highest priority.

A Secret Service official tells TMZ ... they plan meticulously for every scenario, and they've got a plan layered with redundancies to ensure President Biden's safety.

Hunter Biden has certainly been making the rounds in L.A. following his federal gun conviction ... first, he enjoyed a yummy Italian meal in West Hollywood – and now he attended the screening of a new Sean Penn movie.

That's right ... President Biden's son doesn't seem to have a care in the world – or at least that's the image he's publicly portraying -- despite facing up to 25 years in prison after a jury convicted him this week on three felony gun charges.

He's a first-time offender so he won't get anywhere near the max and there's a chance he'll get straight probation.

Father's Day should be a time to rethink parenting so kids aren't running the show at home ... so grouses Bill Maher!

The "Real Time" host bore in on the whole "Gentle Parenting" movement, where parents treat kids like right-thinking adults. Turns out cow-towing to children does great harm to the kids parents think they're nurturing. Bill notes the run-of-the-mill high school student has the same level of anxiety as a psychiatric patient in the early 1950s. Nuff said.

Mr. Maher argues the OG traditional dad, or trad dad, is the answer. Go back to treating kids like they are -- little people without judgment who need discipline and preparation for real life.

President Biden's campaign coffers are filling up with Hollywood money ... including $28 million and counting from a major upcoming fundraising event set to shatter records.

The Prez's reelection campaign tells TMZ ... 46's campaign has already raised $28 million from Saturday's fundraising event in Los Angeles, making it the single largest Democratic fundraiser in U.S. history.

Sources with direct knowledge tell us tens of millions of that figure comes from advance ticket sales for Saturday night's event, which is set to feature a star-studded lineup of celebs ... headlined by George Clooney, Julia Roberts, Jimmy Kimmel, Jason Bateman, Jack Black, Kathryn Hahn, Sheryl Lee Ralph, and even Barack Obama.

Political analyst Matthew Baum can understand the allure of an AI-powered candidate for office -- but he warns that kind of ultimate political outsider could pose some unexpected threats.

We got the Harvard professor Friday on "TMZ Live," where he weighed in on the growing trend of AI candidates running for political offices across the globe.

For example, entrepreneur Steve Endacott is having his AI-generated avatar run for a seat in the House of Commons in the United Kingdom.

Hunter Biden's seemingly taking his federal gun conviction in stride ... stepping out with his wife in Los Angeles just days after becoming a convicted felon in his federal gun case.

Check out these photos -- obtained by TMZ -- that show the First Son at Dan Tana's, an Italian restaurant in West Hollywood, Thursday night and, he looked pretty chill for a guy facing a long prison sentence ... waiting patiently in the lobby along with all the normies.

Hunter dressed casually for the occasion -- ripped jeans and a polo ... as opposed to the full suit we've grown accustomed to seeing him during his trial in Delaware.

Logan and Jake Paul might still be fighting for respect in the boxing community, but they got a president's big stamp of approval -- with Donald Trump praising the brothers' accomplishments in the ring.

The Donald spoke at length about his love for combat sports during his sit-down with the WWE Superstar on his "Impaulsive" podcast this week ... and when it came to the Pauls, Trump couldn't say enough good things about the two -- declaring them legitimate pugilists.

In fact, No. 45 proved he's been keeping an eye on their careers by asking Logan if he'd ever take a fight against Jake ... and shockingly, the Maverick admitted there were serious talks for them to book a bout following Mike Tyson's medical emergency.

A California man seeking to lock up the rights to a Donald Trump dig just took a legal L in the highest court in the land ... but he can still sell his shirts with the suggestive phrase.

The Supreme Court just unanimously rejected Steve Elster's bid to trademark the phrase "Trump Too Small" ... which he's been using on t-shirts going for $25 a pop.

Elster, a lawyer in California, tried to trademark the phrase but was rejected by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office ... and then he claimed his First Amendment rights had been violated, appealing the case all the way to SCOTUS ... which ultimately heard the case.

Logan Paul's got a yuuuuuuge guest on his next podcast episode ... it's none other than President Donald Trump -- and TMZ Sports is told this may not be the WWE Superstar's only toe dip into politics.

Sources with direct knowledge tell us the Maverick sat down with The Donald at Mar-a-Lago on Tuesday for an interview on "Impaulsive" ... which came to be after No. 45's team reached out and requested the meet-up.

We're told Logan agreed to to the gig (who wouldn't want to interview a president??) ... but instead of just getting one side of the upcoming election, he's now hoping to get the same opportunity with Joe Biden.

New York City drill rappers Sheff G and Sleepy Hallow are raising some eyebrows after standing side-by-side with Donald Trump at a recent rally -- but their fellow Brooklyn spitter Dusty Locane understands the move ... for the most part.

Dusty recently linked with TMZ Hip Hop at Summer Jam, giving his two cents on Sheff and Sleepy's unexpected involvement with Trump's May 23 Bronx rally.

Trump invited both Winners Circle Entertainment artists to tip-toe on stage where they endorsed his plan to return to the White House ... even joining in on the "Make America Great Again" chants.

President Biden threw a big bash at the White House ... an early celebration for the upcoming Juneteenth holiday ... and it looks like Joe was in a happy daze.

Biden and VP Kamala Harris were front and center Monday night on the famous South Lawn, chillin' with Billy Porter, among others who came out for the celebration ... which included a concert and a standup comedy performance.

POTUS knows how to host a party ... the main draw here was live music with performances by Gladys Knight, Patti Labelle, Kirk Franklin, Doug E. Fresh and Trombone Shorty. Solid lineup, for sure. Comedian Roy Wood Jr. served as the opening act.

9:08 AM PT -- President Biden just addressed the conviction, saying in part ... "So many families who have had loved ones battle addiction understand the feeling of pride seeing someone you love come out the other side and be so strong and resilient in recovery."

He adds, "As I also said last week, I will accept the outcome of this case and will continue to respect the judicial process as Hunter considers an appeal."

8:56 AM PT -- Hunter Biden just walked out of court after being found guilty in his gun case -- and he was holding his wife and Jill Biden's hands ... and he seemed to be in relatively good spirits. A sentencing date hasn't been set -- but the judge reportedly noted sentencing typically goes down about 120 days after a verdict is rendered.
