Billie Joe Armstrong protested Donald Trump at a recent concert of his -- but right-wingers feel he crossed the line ... 'cause he held up something that looked like a head.

Here's the deal ... the Green Day rocker was performing in D.C. this week, and while he was onstage -- somebody gave a full Trump mask to him, which had the word "IDIOT" scribbled across the forehead ... which is an homage to another mask BJA once donned back in the day.

Fans might remember this well ... during the Bush years, Billie did something incredibly similar -- rocking a Dubya mask with the same word. Now, it was Trump's turn ... and as we know, Billie ain't a big fan of DT.

Jennifer Aniston's fully leaning into the "childless cat lady" beef now with Sen. J.D. Vance ... letting him know she actually does have a baby, even if the love of her life isn't exactly flesh and blood.

The actress says her hair care company, LolaVie, is her offspring ... and the baby is all grow'd up, because the brand's products are now being sold inside Target stores.

Jennifer posted a video on social media beaming at the big accomplishment for LolaVie, while giving off proud parent vibes. See what she did there? Turned the feud into shameless promotion!

The new Secret Service director is giving as good as he gets ... firing back at at least one U.S. Senator grilling him over his agency's failures in protecting Donald Trump the day of the assassination attempt.

Acting Dir. Ronald Rowe went toe-to-toe with Sen. Josh Hawley Tuesday, and things got extremely heated when Hawley demanded to know who Rowe had fired over the security failures in Butler, PA.

At first, Rowe calmly explained that he was waiting for the results of the FBI investigation to determine next steps -- but when Hawley barked back that there were obvious failures because the "former president was shot" ... Rowe snapped.

Donald Trump's plan of attack for Vice President Kamala Harris is clear -- in addition to labeling her an extreme liberal, he's also calling out her "crazy laugh" ... yet, he's not committing to a debate.

The former president sat down Monday night with Fox News' Laura Ingraham, and unleashed a barrage of insults, calling his political rival "sort of incompetent" ... "not very smart" and "very radical."

As Trump put it ... voters should be concerned about Kamala as she's more extreme than Bernie Sanders. In an effort to drive that point home, he also made the unsubstantiated claim Harris plans to defund the police.

"White Dudes for Harris" has the ultimate "Dude" onboard to support Kamala Harris' presidential campaign -- yep, Jeff Bridges himself joined the hugely successful fundraising effort.

Alongside Jeff singing praises for the current veep -- who could become the first female U.S. President -- the 3-hour Zoom call had Josh Gad, Mark Ruffalo and Mark Hamill popping in, too ... and eventually they had a total of 180,000 on the call.

Appropriately sounding every bit like his iconic character, "The Dude" abided as Jeff gushed, "I'm white, I'm a dude, and I'm for Harris -- a woman President, man … how exciting!"

J.D. Vance’s "childless cat lady" comment wasn’t a one off … turns out the Republican VP nominee has history of saying offensive things about liberal-minded people, including calling them sociopaths.

CNN just published an article explaining that Vance sat for a November 2020 podcast interview during which he said people in our country's leadership class were "more sociopathic" than those with kids, which makes them "less mentally stable" – seemingly referring to women.

In the podcast, Vance also labeled commenters on X -- formerly Twitter -- as the "most deranged" and "most psychotic" because they're also typically childless, while insinuating they're members of the Democratic party.

Sen. J.D. Vance is getting roasted 'cause people think he had sex with a couch, and while it might sound funny ('cause it is) ... one sex ed expert says all the jokes are shaming folks who do, in fact, like to bang furniture.

Here's the deal ... someone on X made a joke suggesting Donald Trump's running mate might have humped an inside-out latex glove shoved between 2 couch cushions, as described in a fake description of his NYT bestselling memoir, 'Hillbilly Elegy.'

Like we said, nothing like that is really in his book, but the post went viral anyway, and J.D.'s been ridiculed ever since. Thing is ... while most of us might be laughing, the mockery is actually harmful to a community of folks legitimately turned on by sex with objects ... and that's according to renowned doctor, Laura Berman.

In the blink of an eye, Vice President Kamala Harris became the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee -- and in that same amount of time, Etsy's been inundated with merch backing her, and mocking Donald Trump.

The KH gear covers all sorts of campaign season hot topics -- from labeling Trump a convicted felon, orange complexion jabs and the fact he sunk $6,000 into Harris' campaigns from 2011-2013.

There's also merch marking Kamala's chance to make history by becoming the first female U.S. prez ... very much like sentiments slapped on 2016 Hillary Clinton gear.

Donald Trump's security details didn't communicate with other law enforcement in the lead-up to the attempt on his life ... this, according to another law enforcement org.

Beaver County SWAT team members assigned to protect the former president during his rally in Butler, Pennsylvania earlier this month sat down for an interview with ABC News airing Monday morning.

In a small clip shared on Good Morning America Sunday, eight members of the SWAT team say they had no contact with the Secret Service prior to the shooting ... and, no way to contact the former president's detail either.

The Secret Service dropped the ball in spectacular fashion at Donald Trump's campaign rally where he was nearly killed by a would-be assassin ... so says a former USSS special agent.

TMZ Studios has a new special, "TMZ Presents: Under Fire: The Trump Assassination Attempt," where we explore the many, stunning security failures that lead to the attempt on Trump's life at a Butler, Pennsylvania rally.

Richard Staropoli, a former Secret Service Special Agent, doesn't mince words ... he says Trump's security detail totally failed him and left him inexplicably exposed to mortal danger.

Kamala Harris didn't make a new video appearance at Comic-Con Saturday despite reports ... with sources telling TMZ it's an old, resurfaced clip.

According to reports  ... 'Simpsons' creator Matt Groening introduced Harris' clip -- saying it came from a super fan -- at the end of the show's panel Saturday.

VP Harris apparently then appeared in the clip ... quoting a popular "Treehouse of Horror" -- the name for "The Simpsons" Halloween specials -- episode from years ago which centered around the 1996 election between then-Prez Bill Clinton and Republican nominee Bob Dole.

Donald Trump says this election is the last people will have to vote in if they elect him ... drawing side-eye from tons online who think he's promoting dictatorship.

The former president took the stage in West Palm Beach, Florida last night to speak to a ton of his supporters ... many of whom were apparently Christians -- 'cause DJT took time to address them directly during his speech.

He implores members of the religion to get out and vote, just for this election if they don't want to in the future ... 'cause he says elections will just be a formality moving forward.

Kamala Harris' presidential run may have given "Veep" viewership a boost ... but, the show's creator says any links between her and the show's main character weren't intentional.

Armando Iannucci -- the man who created the 17-time Emmy-winning saga -- sat down for a recent interview with The Guardian ... and, he quickly put any doubts to rest, adamantly saying KH didn't inspire Julia Louis Dreyfus' Selina Meyer.

He says he understands where people see the connection -- a female senator, elevated to the vice presidency before they have to step into the president's shoes after he steps down -- but, it's all just one big coincidence.

Donald Trump's healing well after the attempt on his life, 'cause he's not wearing the bandage on his ear anymore -- and, frankly ... it's still a bit of a mystery if he got hit at all.

The ex-Prez sat down for an audience with Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Friday ... and, pics are now circulating of his uncovered right ear -- and, ya gotta see them 'cause there's seemingly no lasting damage. That, or he's healed up in record time.

Check out the photos for yourself ... it's obviously not taken right next to the ear, but there's no major scarring/scabbing to see -- surprising given his former doctor Ronny Jackson told a couple interviewers the bullet blew off part of his ear, so you'd expect some damage.

Donald Trump is going back to the scene of the crime -- returning to the Pennsylvania town where he was nearly assassinated for another campaign rally.

The former president just announced plans for an event in Butler, PA, where he says he's going to honor the rallygoer who died during the July 13 shooting ... firefighter Corey Comperatore.

Trump says he will also be honoring the "brave patriots" who were injured by gunfire and survived.

Donald Trump has been railing on the FBI's director for suggesting he might not have been hit by a bullet when he was shot at -- and now ... the agency's completely backpedaling.

The FBI just put out a statement that unequivocally stands firm on the notion Trump was, in fact, struck by one of Thomas Matthew Crooks' AR-15 rounds a couple weeks ago at his rally in Butler, PA ... where one person was killed, and two others were injured.

The statement reads, "What struck former President Trump in the ear was a bullet, whether whole or fragmented into smaller pieces, fired from the deceased subject’s rifle."
