Sylvester Stallone is opening up about how he's quietly suffered anxiety-induced attacks for decades ... and how his diagnosis still plays a part in his life.

In a wide-ranging, candid interview with The New York Times, Sylvester said the first time he suffered from an anxiety-induced attack was when he was watching daily footage from a film project in his mid-30s.

He said ... "The first time was when I was 36 and I was watching dailies, and then all of a sudden I stood up and the hair on my neck went up and I started getting hot and I go, I’m dying, this is it, I’m on my way out. And bang, down I went. Took a knee, crawled, rolled over, and now I’m in this dark movie theater."

Ambassador Kimberly Guilfoyle has been seen quite a bit with Christos Marafatsos ... and his inclusion at official meetings is raising some eyebrows.

Chris Hansen had a seat and watched "Primetime" ... and he scathingly called the film "over the top" and Robert Pattinson's version of himself "so detached, so unhinged, so dark, so unlikable."

He told one of his fellow audience members ... "98% of that movie that I just saw was pure fiction."

The FBI has demoted two veteran agents who were tasked with investigating threats made against Stephen Miller's wife ... and a new bombshell report claims it was done following an argument over the legitimacy of the inquiry.

The FBI confirmed to MSNOW that Special Agent in Charge of counterterrorism, Michael Burgwald, and Assistant Special Agent in Charge, Courtland Rae, were the ones demoted.

The Washington field office counterintelligence agents apparently clashed with FBI director Kash Patel more than once in the past ... but investigating whether or not threats against Katie Miller were terroristic in nature was the straw that broke the camel's back ... this according to MSNOW.

Get your syrup ready because it's National Pancake Day ... and this one's extra sweet because we're celebrating with celebs!

She said she is in the process of securing an offer from Searchlight Pictures to produce the film. Simone said the deal is structured on a "Most Favored Nation basis," meaning it would ensure equal treatment for the family parties, and said, "both sides of the family were sent identical paperwork."

A nor'easter has been pummeling the East Coast with heavy wind and rain ... and even though the worst is yet to come, pics and video show devastating coastal flooding.
