‘woefully unprepared for the unaccompanied migrant children crisis that they created’

President Donald Trump touted the newly built helipad on the South Lawn of the White House, as well as other renovations made to the presidential residence under his tenure.

Instead of taking accountability, men like Deion Sanders and Stephen A. Smith, Jason Whitlock argues, would rather find someone else to blame.

On "Fearless," Whitlock puts the Colorado football coach and ESPN personality on what he calls the “Mount Rushmore of entitlement,” accusing both men of deflecting criticism instead of owning their mistakes.

“Stephen A. Smith put out some, I mean, just really hard-to-understand, ridiculous video about the Atlanta Dream in the WNBA and how the WNBA wasn’t prepared because they ... didn’t have an arena big enough to host the WNBA Finals,” Whitlock explains.

“And he’s ranting and raving ... but then he turns it into something about himself and critics and apologizing and making mistakes, and he turned it into the mistakes that he’s been making, and the apologies he’s been making are proof of how good he is or how righteous he is,” he continues.

This attitude is why Smith, Whitlock says, belongs on the “Mount Rushmore of entitlement” alongside Deion Sanders.

“Deion, in their last game two weeks ago against Texas Tech, made coaching blunder after coaching blunder. His team looked unprepared. Deion looked unprepared. They lost their third straight game to Texas Tech,” Whitlock explains.

Sanders took two weeks to give a press conference, which Whitlock notes didn’t help.

“With two weeks of preparation, he could offer no explanations for anything,” Whitlock says.

“It’s been reported, and Deion copped to it, that someone on the Colorado coaching staff or players left their playbook at the team hotel and Texas Tech fans found it. Deion had no explanation for that two weeks ago,” he explains.

“I’ve been around coaches my entire life. Losing your playbook is not an option,” he says.

“He won’t take responsibility for it. He won’t be held accountable for it,” he adds.

Bend police responded to Silver Rail Elementary School for an active shooter report, where three children and an adult were killed. The suspected gunman was shot dead, police say.

Fans of the popular multi-season show dramatizing the life of Jesus Christ were thrilled when the trailer for the latest season was released Thursday.

"The Chosen" famously received support from one of the largest crowdfunding campaigns ever and has become a hit with hundreds of millions of viewers.

'Season Five was the powder keg. In Season Six, it explodes.'

"This is it. We’re at the toughest part. Season Six covers the 24 hours of the events surrounding Jesus’ death," read the description from show creator Dallas Jenkins on social media.

"It was painful to shoot, and it’s painful to contemplate," he continues. "But if there’s one thing I want you to take away from this season, it’s that Jesus chose this path. He even tells the apostles he could be rescued from it if he wanted. He chose surrender and humility and sacrifice. Knowing that should make this story a little less painful."

Jenkins concludes, "Season Five was the powder keg. In Season Six, it explodes."

The show's creator told BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey that he began writing about the life of Jesus after his bright future as a director appeared to collapse along with a box office disaster.

"It was in 2017 that my feature film came out that completely bombed at the box office," Dallas said in the 2022 interview.

"In just a couple hours, I went from being a director with a very bright future to being a director with no future," he explained.

He said he received a message from a stranger on Facebook about the biblical story of Jesus feeding 5,000 with fish and loaves that changed his life.

"Remember, it's not your job to feed the 5,000. It's only to provide the loaves and fish," the message read.

"In that moment, my life changed. I felt more than ever like God was present. ... I felt more cared for in that moment than ever," Jenkins added.

Season 6 of "The Chosen" will be released on Prime Video November 15.

Colin Cowherd compares the Los Angeles Dodgers' stunning 0-3 postseason hole to "The Godfather Part III" — familiar names, but fading magic.

The Muslim Democrat running for Michigan's open seat in the U.S. Senate did not do well under pressure when questioned again about ties between his family and the Muslim Brotherhood.

In a video posted Wednesday, Abdul El-Sayed appeared outraged that NBC News anchor Tom Llamas continued to ask him to clarify whether he and his family support the terrorist group in light of comments made by his maternal half-sister, Eman Abdelhadi, on social media.

'Are you serious? ... Do you think, you think, are, are you, are you insinuating that somehow I was lying?'

The X posts from Abdelhadi include:

• "Had an amazing talk with my mom about her activism in the Muslim Brotherhood during the early 70s while she was in college #respect."
• "My family has long been MB, but I've always felt that it has navigated the political sphere poorly/destructively."
• "Although I lean towards the Leftists; conversations with my #MB family in Egypt revealed respect for individual liberties & secular state."

Although the posts were written more than a decade ago, El-Sayed has been unable to fully explain them.

"These tweets have emerged now," said Llamas, who read the content of some posts. "Can you just explain it?"

"Yeah, Tom. It's funny to me," El-Sayed responded, visibly irritated.

"I was born in 1984 down the street in Rochester Hills," he added. "I was raised here in Michigan, went to the University of Michigan, rebuilt the health department in the city, led the health department in this county. And you want to ask me about what was happening in Egypt in 1970? Are you serious?"

"I get it, but you were asked a question, and you gave an answer —" Llamas said before getting interrupted.

"This is kind of like the same. Yeah. I'm telling you, like, I have no ties. We have no ties," El-Sayed rambled.

"So your mother had no ties?" Llamas asked.

"I've never had these conversations with my mother. I wasn't raised by my mother," he replied.

"So you were unaware —" Llamas asked.

"But, but, but I'm just telling you that, like, you're using hearsay evidence from a tweet. It's ... not serious. It's just not serious," El-Sayed stammered.

"But you've also gone after the president for truthfulness," Llamas said. "So when people ask you a question, they all do expect the truth."

"And do you think, you think, are, are you, are you insinuating that somehow I was lying?" El-Sayed stammered.

"I don't know. That's why I'm asking you," Llamas replied.

"And I'm telling you I was not," El-Sayed angrily responded.

After a debate last Thursday against Republican Mike Rogers, El-Sayed similarly snapped at a reporter who asked about the different standards he has for President Donald Trump and for Hasan Piker, an anti-American radical who campaigned with El-Sayed earlier this year.

"That's a serious question?" El-Sayed shot back with obvious disdain.

"Well, Donald Trump is the president of the United States, which means he has significant power, including holding the nuclear football. And when he makes war, which he has the power to do, it's a very different thing than a streamer in California. I'm not sure if that's clear to you, but like, when it's the president of the United States, who is literally the most powerful person in the whole world, to equate the most powerful person in the world with a streamer in California seems to me to be just a little — I'm not going to use the word — but silly."

El-Sayed's campaign did not respond to a request for comment from Blaze News.

Rogers has hammered away at El-Sayed by using El-Sayed's own extremist statements and positions.

Former President Barack Obama has signed up to campaign for El-Sayed, which many critics take as a sign that Democrats are worried that their candidate won't be able to cross the finish line.

The race is pivotal in deciding which party will control the U.S. Senate after the midterm elections.

The contest is still very tight in the last month of before the election, as can be seen in the Blaze News Poll Watch average of polling below.
