Well , this is an absolute tragedy , and there ’ s no other way to put it .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ passes away .
It ’ s especially sad when a young man who should be in the prime of his life passes away .

His entire life should have been ahead of him , and it ’ s all over at the young age of 26 .
If getting news like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in your tracks and think about life , then I don ’ t know what will .
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family , friends and the entire Trojans community .

thedailycaller--2020-06-22--REVIEW: ‘Yellowstone’ Season 3 Premiere Is Excellent With ‘You’re The Indian Now’

The “ Yellowstone ” season three premiere was excellent with “ You ’ re the Indian Now.
” WARNING : THERE ARE GOING TO BE SPOILERS BELOW .
DO NOT KEEP READING IF YOU AREN ’ T CAUGHT UP .
CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED .
After nearly 300 days of waiting for season three of the hit Kevin Costner show , it finally arrived Sunday night , and it was excellent .
It felt so good to be back with the Duttons and the rest of the crew .
( EXCLUSIVE : ‘ Yellowstone ’ Star Josh Holloway Previews Roarke Morris @ @ @ @ @ @ @ American ’ ) Overall , it was a pretty tame episode from an action standpoint .
In fact , much like Cole Hauser previewed in my interview with him , the pace calmed down a lot from the end of season two .
Following the Duttons rescuing Tate from the Beck brothers to close out last season , John has resigned as the Livestock Commissioner and Jamie has taken his place .
This seems to have done a good enough job to gloss over any issues the Duttons might have had after using @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and kill the Becks .
We ’ re also about to find out just how loyal Jamie is to his father .
As John tells him when he takes the role , one more betrayal and Jamie will be dead in the eyes of the Duttons .
( EXCLUSIVE : ‘ Yellowstone ‘ Star Cole Hauser Previews Season 3 , Explains Why Millions Of Americans Are Captivated By The Show ) There ’ s also a great scene between John and Monica about how the Duttons are the Indians now .
After years @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out of their land , John and Kayce now find themselves in a similar position .
It was damn near poetic !
One of the biggest questions coming into season three has been what is Roarke Morris ( Josh Holloway ) all about .
Well , we kind of have an idea now .
We see Beth and Roarke get an introduction to each other when he ’ s standing fishing in a stream that runs through Dutton land .
It ’ s clear that there ’ s going to be a lot @ @ @ @ @ @ @ He also is in control of some serious assets and money that he ’ s using to build an empire of his own .
Not only does this appear to be pushing on the Duttons , but he also seems to be encroaching on Thomas Rainwater .
Is there another unlikely alliance in the works ?
It would certainly seem like a possibility !
Overall , it was a great episode to ease back into the world of “ Yellowstone ” with .
I loved every second of it .
Was it the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ever seen ?
Most certainly not , but it was still great .
Monica appears to be all in on the ranching lifestyle , Roarke has entered the picture , Kayce appears to be taking over more and more control , Rip is as loyal as ever as he ’ s now with Beth and it seems like things are going reasonably well .
Yet , you can smell it in the air that trouble is just on the horizon .
That ’ s what makes “ Yellowstone ” so great !
Make @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on the Paramount Network for the second episode of season three !

The “Yellowstone” season three premiere was excellent with “You’re the Indian Now.”

We’re also about to find out just how loyal Jamie is to his father. As John tells him when he takes the role, one more betrayal and Jamie will be dead in the eyes of the Duttons.

There’s also a great scene between John and Monica about how the Duttons are the Indians now. After years and years of her people being pushed out of their land, John and Kayce now find themselves in a similar position. It was damn near poetic!
One of the biggest questions coming into season three has been what is Roarke Morris (Josh Holloway) all about.
Well, we kind of have an idea now.
We see Beth and Roarke get an introduction to each other when he’s standing fishing in a stream that runs through Dutton land.
It’s clear that there’s going to be a lot of fun interaction with these two. He also is in control of some serious assets and money that he’s using to build an empire of his own.
Not only does this appear to be pushing on the Duttons, but he also seems to be encroaching on Thomas Rainwater. Is there another unlikely alliance in the works? It would certainly seem like a possibility!
Overall, it was a great episode to ease back into the world of “Yellowstone” with. I loved every second of it. Was it the most action packed episode we’ve ever seen? Most certainly not, but it was still great.
Monica appears to be all in on the ranching lifestyle, Roarke has entered the picture, Kayce appears to be taking over more and more control, Rip is as loyal as ever as he’s now with Beth and it seems like things are going reasonably well.
Yet, you can smell it in the air that trouble is just on the horizon. That’s what makes “Yellowstone” so great! Make sure to tune in next Sunday night on the Paramount Network for the second episode of season three!

When the Supreme Court ruled on the 2016 abortion case, Whole Women’s Health v. Hellerstedt, Roberts dissented from the SCOTUS decision to strike down the Texas law requiring abortion doctors to be required to have admitting privileges at nearby hospitals, the publication reports.
Whole Women’s Health v. Hellerstedt and June Medical Services v. Russo are strikingly similar cases, and should SCOTUS use the Louisiana abortion case to overturn the previous 2016 ruling, many may see this as a political move on Robert’s part.
“In 2016 Chief Justice Roberts dissented when the Court struck down a Texas law similar to the one at issue in June Medical,” Carrie Severino, president of the conservative Judicial Crisis Network, told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “The Louisiana law at issue in this case has an even stronger factual basis for being upheld. We’ll know soon if the Court decided to follow the law or its own political agenda.”

The abortion case at hand is already fraught with emotion: when the Supreme Court took up the case in March, both pro-life and pro-abortion protestors gathered in the cold outside the court as figures like Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer spoke out in support of abortion access.
“I want to tell you Gorsuch,” Schumer said at a rally outside the Supreme Court, video from the event shows, “and I want to tell you Kavanaugh. You have released the whirlwind, and you will pay the price. You won’t know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions.”

Hollywood producer and former talent manager David Guillod has been charged with sexually assaulting multiple women over the last decade.
The producer is facing 11 charges, including kidnapping to commit rape and rape of a drugged victim, per the Hollywood Reporter in a piece published Monday. The alleged attacks occurred between May 2012 and January 2015. (RELATED: ‘These Girls Had Been My Daughters, I’d Want To Beat The Sh*t Out Of You’: First Weinstein Defense Witness Fails)
“Charges were filed after extensive investigations were conducted by the Santa Barbra County Sheriff’s Department and the Los Angeles Police Department, while working in conjunction with the District Attorneys of Santa Barbara County and Los Angeles County,” a statement from the district attorney’s office read.

Philip Cohen, David Guillod’s lawyer, said in a statement that his client was innocent https://t.co/F96MLAr3w0 — The Hollywood Reporter (@THR) June 22, 2020
It comes after Guillod resigned in 2017 as co-chief executive of Primary Wave Entertainment following a blog post by actress Jessica Barth, who didn’t name him in her post, but later did online, per the New York Times.
In the piece, she accused him of drugging and sexually assaulting her in 2012 when he was her manager. (RELATED: Prosecutors Begin Opening Statements In Harvey Weinstein Rape Trial With Graphic Details)
Guillod’s attorney, Philip Cohen, told the outlet the producer had surrendered to the authorities in Santa Barbara, CA on Monday and has “denied these allegations” over the last eight years.
“For the past eight years, Mr. Guillod has denied these allegations, and for the past eight years Mr. Guillod has fully cooperated with all aspects of law enforcement’s investigation,” Cohen explained.
“We find the unification of the cases filed through the Santa Barbara DA’s office and the timing suspicious,” he added. “An overwhelming amount of evidence has been collected over the course of this investigation disputing these charges.”
Cohen continued, while noting that “DNA has come back negative in the Los Angeles case; percipient witnesses have come forward in support of Mr. Guillod’s account of events; and numerous text messages and emails obtained by the defense tell a story very different than that which is being alleged.”
Cohen went on to explain that his client had also “passed five independent polygraph examinations.”
“Mr. Guillod has been vilified for eight years without being afforded the opportunity to examine under oath his accusers,” he added. “Justice is rarely swift and often does not come easy; but Mr. Guillod very much looks forward to clearing his name in the appropriate forum.”
The accusations reportedly stem from when he was a talent manager at Primary Wave. He currently remains behind bars with bail set at $3 million, per the outlet. If convicted, Guillod is facing 21 years to life behind bars.
