CARLSBAD, Calif. — Carlsbad native Peter Robbins, the voice actor who brought Charlie Brown to life in the Peanuts cartoons from the 1960s, has died, his family told FOX 5. He was 65. Robbins’ family said he took his own life last week. FOX 5’s Phil Blauer was a close friend of the voice actor over the past 25 years. He says he had closely followed the voice actor’s ups and downs, from interviewing him in jail because of criminal threats he made against several people, including San Diego County Sheriff Bill Gore, to speaking with him when he was...

From Kyrie Irving’s refusal to be vaccinated to the Nets relenting and allowing their point guard to return on a part-time basis, Charles Barkley has all sorts of problems with Brooklyn. After Irving’s season debut in the Nets’ win in Indiana on Wednesday, the TNT analyst ripped both the star and team on Thursday for enabling this unconventional marriage. “I have an issue with the entire thing,” Barkley said on “Inside the NBA.” “Kyrie is a heck of a player. But to only play in road games, I don’t think it is fair to the game, No. 1. But I...

Take a look a these private jet flying billionaires sitting in a mansion complaining about you emitting too much carbon.. While they spend the next two weeks lecturing everyone else about doing more to tackle climate change, elitists including Jeff Bezos, Prince Charles and Bill Gates have been slammed for flying around everyday on carbon spewing private jets. Bezos met with Prince Charles Sunday in a massive mansion near Glasgow for a ‘cup of tea’ and a chat about climate change, after both of them arrived in private jets. Bezos touched down in Scotland on Sunday at Prestwick Airport in...

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) dismissed concerns of millions of Americans who are worried about the integrity of the election, asserting at a press conference with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on Thursday that the election is “not in doubt.” “The election is not in doubt,” Schumer declared at the joint presser with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), dismissing election concerns as “nothing more than a temper tantrum by Republicans.”

MSNBC’s Chuck Todd said on Thursday’s broadcast of “MTP Daily” that President Donald Trump was “gaslighting the country” with his many assertions that assertions that mail-in voting is fraught with fraud. Todd said, “With just 40 days until the election, the president of the United States is openly signaling he could take drastic action to attempt to hold on to power. With Biden maintaining his durable lead in the polls, the president ramped up his attacks on the integrity of the election. Now he’s publicly stating that he will not commit to a peaceful transfer of power.”

Biden, who has frequently flubbed words and phrases on the campaign trail, was asked by the Fox News Sunday host about some of the recent times he misspoke, including when he discussed being a Senate candidate and said to “vote for the other Biden” if people don’t like what they see. At the end of the interview, Wallace thanked Biden for taking the time to speak with him. “All right, Chuck, thank you very much,” Biden said. “Alright, it’s Chris, but anyway,” Wallace responded with a grin.

Yvonne Strahovski scooped Emmy, Golden Globe and Critics' Circle nominations for her star turn as the villainous Serena Joy in The Handmaid's Tale, which famously tackles the role of patriarchy and religion in suppressing women's rights. And the Sydney-born actor is happy to comment on the increasing similarities between the fictional dystopia and our current reality: "There are things happening now that directly reflect the themes of the show. It's a scary world we're living in," she says. Of the current debate raging in the US over women's reproductive rights, she says, "No one and no law has the right...

As TGP previously reported in February, according to Mike Cernovich, McCabe altered far left FBI investigator Peter Strzok’s 302 notes on his interview with General Michael Flynn. And then McCabe destroyed the evidence. In early May Senator Grassley demanded the FBI and DOJ produce the transcript of Flynn’s intercepted calls with Russian Ambassador Kislyak and the 302’s by May 25th. The DOJ and FBI ignored him. Grassley then concluded his letter by reiterating his request to schedule an interview with the second special agent who was present at Flynn’s interrogation, Joe Pientka, after push back from the DOJ.

Schumer said, “It’s a funny thing. In a certain sense, we’re able to accomplish more in the minority than we were when we had the presidency or even were in the majority.” The Senate Minority Leader continued, “At the end of the day, as the minority party, we feel good about being able to succeed in so many ways. We don’t have the House, we don’t have the Senate, we don’t have the presidency, but we produced a darn good bill for the priorities we have believed in.” Sen. Schumer also touted the inclusion of the Gateway bridge project in...

In case you didn’t get enough MSNBC on TV, you can check out Joy Reid on The Daily Beast with a wild and woolly editorial headlined: “Puerto Rico Is Trump's Katrina: President Donald Trump … does not care … about brown and black people.” (Ellipses in the original.) At least it was marked “OPINION.” It also had the unsubtle subheadline “NERO.” Reid began with the usual flourish: As a dam cracked in Puerto Rico, spreading fear across an already devastated island, Donald Trump was in Alabama, calling a black former NFL player a “son-of-a-bitch.” During a 90-minute rant that veered...

Senator Charles Schumer has called on Congress to quickly pass the Harmful Algal Bloom and Hypoxia Research and Control Act, which he said would help combat the rise in toxic algae found in Long Island waterways. Left unchecked, said Mr. Schumer, these toxic blooms could contaminate Long Island’s drinking water and damage economies dependent on fishing and recreation. Starting in 2019, it would authorize $22 million per year for five years to help conduct research on harmful algal blooms and continue an interagency working group to advance the understanding of hypoxia, or low oxygen, and harmful algal blooms. The bill...
