Woody Allen didn't vote for Donald Trump ... but, it seems he's got support if the guy ever wants back into showbusiness -- 'cause he's a great professional actor!

The Hollywood legend stopped by Bill Maher's 'Club Random' podcast and opened up about directing the President of the United States in his 1998 movie celebrity.

Allen shouted out the president's professionalism ... saying he was polite to everyone on the set -- and giving his acting a thumb's up.

Donald Trump says his longtime ally Rudy Giuliani has earned the Presidential Medal of Freedom ... while the latter recovers from a horrific car accident.

POTUS announced the news on Truth Social Monday ... calling Rudy the greatest mayor in the history of New York City and "an equally great American Patriot."

He says more details are to come, and he thanks people for their time and attention ... before finishing off the post with a hearty "MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!"

President Trump is putting to bed any rumors of his demise, the only way he knows how ... with a SLEDGEHAMMER!

47 jumped on Truth Social Sunday and blasted out a one-liner in all caps, responding to someone talking about Trump's recent death rumors by saying ... "NEVER FELT BETTER IN MY LIFE."

On Friday, people online were singing a much different tune. Conspiracy theorists speculated that Trump was headed to his grave due to health concerns, citing past photos of his bruised hands and swollen ankles.

Meghan McCain says Greta Thunberg's gotta change her style if she wants to be taken seriously in politics ... 'cause right now, she's looking more like a fairy tale dictator than a voice for change.

The conservative commentator shared a clip of the 22-year-old political activist talking about a mass global uprising in the face of genocide, fascism and colonization perpetuated by governments around the world.

McCain couldn't seem to focus however ... writing on X, "I refuse to take anyone talking about politics seriously with uneven bangs and this sh***y Lord Farquaad hair."

Donald Trump looks alive and well ... this after ridiculous online rumors have been circling about his current status -- and even questioning if he's alive.

The prez was seen boarding his motorcade on the South Lawn of the White House Saturday morning with his granddaughter, Kai, as they headed to Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Virginia.

The two look geared up for a morning of golf ... with Donald rocking a MAGA hat and polo, while Kai wears a black long-sleeve shirt and matching cap.

Kim Kardashian doesn't understand the government's immigration policy, and she's actually doing the bidding of criminals ... according to the Department of Homeland Security.

Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin went after the reality star, telling TMZ ... "Ms. Kardashian is misinformed and detached from the very reality of the operations in Los Angeles she has decided to opine on. These are the violent criminals who Homeland Security, under President Trump and Secretary Noem’s leadership, have removed from Los Angeles’s streets: murderers, rapists, gang members and child pedophiles."

McLaughlin then asks ... "Why does Ms. Kardashian continue to do the bidding of criminals at the expense of innocent Americans and brave law enforcement?"

A couple air traffic controllers came to blows on the job at Reagan National Airport ... and one of the guy's lawyers tells us the fight boiled down to President Trump's disdain for DEI hiring policies.

Damon Gaines is facing misdemeanor assault and battery charges for the March 2025 fight inside the air traffic control tower at DCA ... and he's going in front of a judge tomorrow to learn his fate.

Gaines' lawyer, Robert Jenkins, tells TMZ ... the coworker his client brawled with was commenting on Trump's anti-DEI crusade and Gaines took offense to some of the comments, leading to a dustup on the tower floor ... right in front of the control screens.

MAGA supporters eager to see Donald Trump added to Mount Rushmore are about to be disappointed ... because it's nearly impossible to make an addition without destroying the landmark, TMZ has learned.

We caught up with former National Park Service Superintendent Dan Wenk on "TMZ Live" Tuesday, where he explained why the two-time president is never going to make it up onto the storied rock in South Dakota.

As Dan put it ... the mountain has been examined in the past and investigations determined that trying to make changes to the mountain's structure would run the risk of destroying it.

President Trump is changing his tune when it comes to former nemesis Taylor Swift ... he used to say he hated her, but now he's showering her with praise and love following her engagement to Travis Kelce.

POTUS finally said something nice about Taylor ... when a reporter asked him about Tuesday's engagement news during a Trump cabinet meeting.

Trump wished Taylor and Travis "a lot of love" ... and went on to say he thinks Taylor is "a terrific person."

Ghislaine Maxwell is among the scores of people who think there's no way in hell her former boss Jeffrey Epstein killed himself in jail ... and she has a theory who may have done it.

Here's the deal ... on Friday, the Justice Department released a transcript of the interview Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche recently conducted with Maxwell ... and she's straight-up asked her opinion on his 2019 death.

Maxwell says she does not buy the official manner of death as suicide ... but she also says he was not killed to keep quiet about his powerful friends -- and the dirt the accused child sex trafficker may have had on them.

Ghislaine Maxwell's drawing a hard line -- insisting she never saw Donald Trump tangled up in her and Jeffrey Epstein’s sordid business or doing anything remotely inappropriate with underage girls.

The Justice Department just unsealed Maxwell’s full prison interview transcript from last month at Florida’s FCI Tallahassee -- where she’s serving a 20-year stretch -- and in it, she flat-out denies ever seeing Trump anywhere near Epstein’s massage tables, getting rubdowns from the minor girls she procured, hanging at his home ... or caught in any inappropriate situation at all.

In fact, Maxwell told Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche that every time she crossed paths with Trump, he was nothing but "a gentleman in all respects" -- and she never saw him act out of line with anyone.

Donald Trump wants his administration to shake up the country's Section 8 benefits to just 2 years of eligibility, yet Ghostface Killah thinks the proposed policy will just make things worse ... the Wu-Tang Clan legend knows it's not easy making project housing ends meet!!!

TMZ Hip Hop caught up with Ghost in NYC, rolling with Nems and the crew in the wake of his new album, "Supreme Clientele 2" ... a 25-year update to his original classic release.

Ghost kicks off the album waxing politics via the track "Iron Man" ... "Fake Democrats, boondaggers blowin' at Trump" and straight up tells us the American people got what they voted for. 🤷🏾‍♂️

President Donald Trump tried to get the United States its first World Cup title on Friday ... and his strategy was simple -- steal the damn thing in broad daylight!!

Trump welcomed FIFA president Gianni Infantino to the Oval Office hours ago to announce the draw for the 2026 men's World Cup that will take place at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.

Infantino brought the beloved trophy with him to 1600 Penn ... and handed it to POTUS, saying it's "only for winners."

Senator Amy Klobuchar is waging war against artificial intelligence after falling victim to a "horrible" and misleading deepfake ... in which she appeared to comment on Sydney Sweeney's "perfect titties."

We talked to the U.S. Senator from Minnesota Thursday on "TMZ Live," and she explained how the now-viral video was so much more than a mere prank. As she told us, people online were actually being duped by the altered video ... a reality that's left her concerned.

Klobuchar admitted the video looks pretty legit, given it was doctored footage from a real July committee hearing. Of course, the things she said in the viral video were nowhere near reality -- the senator was actually tackling citizens' privacy, and not Sydney's cleavage, that day.

Donald Trump has nabbed a major legal victory in his "yuge" civil fraud case ... a New York appeals court has just thrown out a half-billion dollar judgment against the president.

On Thursday, the New York appeals court announced the ruling with 5 judges voting to do away with the massive judgment -- which was $355 million plus interest! In short, Trump stood to lose over $500 million ... and large parts of his business empire, but not anymore.

Why? Because the appeals court deemed the fine "excessive" ... with some of the judges noting it could've violated DT's Eighth Amendment rights -- which protects citizens from excessive bail, fines, and cruel and unusual punishment.

Amber Rose is going after "racist" old white people while supporting the Trump administration's move to deploy National Guard troops in Washington, D.C.

Amber unloaded on the "white liberals" she says are behind ongoing protests of the National Guard's presence to crack down on D.C. crime. In her IG story she says they don't actually care about black people's safety.

She notes ... "Most of the violent crimes in DC are in black neighborhoods. What about the mothers, auntie's, grandmom's and the children that just wanna feel safe walking outside??? Why do they want the good people of DC living in violence? racists much?"
