President Donald Trump delivered a scathing rebuke of Spain’s socialist government on Wednesday following Madrid’s decision to block the United States from using joint military bases for ongoing operations against the Iranian regime.
The Spanish government, led by Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, has refused to allow the United States to use the Rota and Morón airbases for offensive strikes against Iran. Spanish Foreign Minister José Manuel Albares said the country&#8217;s position has not changed &#8220;one iota&#8221; or &#8220;by a single comma,&#8221; insisting that the bases will only be used for missions consistent with the United Nations Charter. Because of the refusal, the U.S. military has been forced to reroute assets.
Speaking to reporters, Trump did not mince words about Sánchez, whose administration has moved to distance itself from the U.S.-Israeli coalition. Spain also just took the radical step of permanently withdrawing its ambassador to Israel.
President Trump characterized Spain&#8217;s lack of cooperation as a betrayal of NATO obligations.
&#8220;I think they’re not cooperating at all,&#8221; Trump said. &#8220;Spain, I think they’ve been very bad. Very bad. Not good at all.&#8221;
The president hinted at potential economic consequences, suggesting a cutoff of trade with the European nation. He also pointed to Spain’s long history of failing to meet its financial obligations to NATO while relying on American protection.
&#8220;They get protected. They don’t want to pay their fair share,&#8221; Trump noted, though he was careful to distinguish between Spain&#8217;s citizens and its leadership. &#8220;The people of Spain are fantastic. The leadership&#8230;not so good.&#8221;

While criticizing European holdouts, Trump expressed pride in what he described as the effectiveness of the U.S. military’s campaign to neutralize 47 years of Iranian aggression, saying it has significantly degraded Tehran&#8217;s ability to project power in the region.
According to Trump, Iran&#8217;s navy has been effectively dismantled, with roughly 60 mine boats and most major vessels now &#8220;at the bottom of the sea.&#8221; He added that the Iranian air force has been neutralized and that radar and anti-aircraft systems have been completely destroyed. Trump noted that key regime leaders are &#8220;gone&#8221; and that Iran no longer has a functioning air defense apparatus.

&#8220;Our military is the best. It’s the most powerful in the world,&#8221; Trump said, adding that world leaders have expressed awe at the speed of the American operation. &#8220;We’ve done something that nobody ever thought was possible to do.&#8221;
When asked about the timeline for the operation&#8217;s end, Trump remained firm, stating that the United States would continue &#8220;more of the same&#8221; until the threat was eliminated. He warned that while the U.S. military has been precise, it has the capability to &#8220;take them out by this afternoon&#8221; in a way that would make it impossible for the country to be rebuilt.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), speaking at the Munich Security Conference on Sunday, mocked Secretary of State Marco Rubio for a passage in his historic speech at the same event a day earlier, which elicited a <a href="https://x.com/JCAndersonNYC/status/2022768689561448678">standing ovation</a>.
“Our expansion into the interior followed the footsteps of French fur traders and explorers whose names, by the way, still adorn the street signs and towns’ names all across the Mississippi Valley,” Rubio noted before the appreciative crowd.  “Our horses, our ranches, our rodeos – the entire romance of the cowboy archetype that became synonymous with the American West – these were born in Spain. And our largest and most iconic city was named New Amsterdam before it was named New York.”
At a TU Berlin event with German Bundestag member Isabel Cademartori, AOC taunted, “Rubio’s speech was a pure appeal to Western culture. My favorite part was when he said that American cowboys came from Spain. I believe the Mexicans and descendants of African slave peoples would like to have a word on that.”

Of course, what Rubio actually said was “the entire romance of the cowboy archetype that became synonymous with the American West – these were born in Spain.”
Absolutely true.
The word &#8220;cowboy&#8221; itself is a direct translation of the Spanish word vaquero (from vaca, meaning cow). The tradition began in the medieval hacienda system of Spain and was brought to the Americas by conquistadors like Hernán Cortés and Gregorio de Villalobos in the early 1500s. These Spaniards introduced the first horses and cattle to the Western Hemisphere.
The &#8220;look&#8221; and equipment of the cowboy is almost entirely Spanish in origin: The lariat comes from la reata; chaps is a shortened form of the Spanish chaparreras, which were leather leggings used to protect riders from brush; the western saddle came from Spanish war and ranching saddles, and even the Stetson hat comes from the Spanish sombrero.
The rodeo dates back to the 17th and 18th centuries, when Spanish hacendados held annual rodeos to gather, count, and brand cattle. Spain introduced the ranching association and the system of branding cattle for ownership.

After Spain, France, and Italy blocked a move to designate the Iranian Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) as a terrorist organization, Dutch member of the European Parliament Bart Groothuis blasted the decision.
The IRGC acts as the &#8220;praetorian guard&#8221; for the Supreme Leader of Iran, tasked with ensuring the regime&#8217;s survival by crushing any internal opposition. Reports indicate that IRGC and Basij forces used live fire against peaceful demonstrators and even raided hospitals to arrest injured protesters. Estimates range from 5,000 to more than 15,000 deaths in January. The IRGC <a href="https://www.hrw.org/news/2025/08/14/iran-detainees-ill-treated-and-disappeared-after-israeli-evin-prison-attack">controls</a> its own intelligence apparatus and secret detention centers (such as Ward 2A of Evin Prison), where dissidents, journalists, and dual nationals are subjected to physical and psychological torture, forced confessions, and summary executions. Through its Quds Force, the IRGC operates as the world&#8217;s most active state sponsor of terrorism, conducting operations on nearly every continent.
Germany and the Baltic states are among the countries <a href="https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2026/01/14/pressure-mounts-on-eu-to-list-irans-revolutionary-guards-as-terror-organization?utm_source=chatgpt.com">pushing</a> for the European Parliament to designate the IRGC as a terrorist organization. Under EU rules, all 27 member states must agree for the designation to move forward.
“Italy, Spain, and France are against putting the Islamic Iranian Revolutionary Guard, IRGC, on the EU terrorist list,” Groothuis noted. “Let’s call things as they are: France, Spain, and Italy say there are legal obstacles. Well, maybe murdering people inside Europe, or funding several terrorist organizations, or burning synagogues in Düsseldorf; maybe that is not enough. But surely, unleashing chemical weapons on the Iranian population or killing many thousands of innocent civilians.”
“Spain, Italy, and France say they need a legal court order; well, there is one, like in Düsseldorf. And please ask Israel, Saudi Arabia, United States, Canada, Bahrain, who have already designated IRC a terrorist organization, whether there was a diplomatic collapse: there wasn’t. Can the High Representative formally acknowledge here today that it is these three countries — like the press is reporting constantly in the Council — who are blocking to list the IRGC? Will the High Representative be on our side to sanction the IRGC, and expose their children and grandchildren who are studying here in Europe, enjoying our liberties, while their relatives are pouring chemical weapons over the heads of innocent, freedom-abiding Persians?”
“Let’s call things as they are,” he repeated.

A high-speed train derailment in southern Spain on Sunday resulted in a horrific crash that left at least 40 dead and dozens more injured — with more dead and injured feared to still be buried in the wreckage.
The crash took place near the town of Adamuz in Cordoba Province around 7:45 p.m. local time and involved two high-speed trains, both of which were traveling at approximately 130 miles per hour at the time of the derailment and subsequent crash, The New York Times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01/18/world/spain-high-speed-train-derailment">reported</a>.
According to multiple reports, the last two cars of a northbound train traveling from Malaga to Madrid derailed first, crossing the tracks and crashing into a southbound train traveling from Madrid to Huelva. The second train derailed as well after the impact and tumbled down an embankment.
The scene, according to local police, was &#8220;utter chaos&#8221; as injured passengers attempted to climb out of the damaged train cars. The bodies of some of those killed were thrown a considerable distance from the train.
Spanish transportation minister Óscar Puente told reporters that even the experts are confused as to what might have caused the crash, especially since the section of track that goes through the area of the crash is primarily flat and was only recently renovated. &#8220;The accident is extremely strange. All the experts we have consulted are extremely baffled.&#8221;
The northbound train was carrying more than 300 passengers at the time of the derailment, and the southbound train was carrying about 100 passengers.
In the wake of the crash, rail service between Madrid and Andalusia has been temporarily suspended, and the Spanish Red Cross has set up a temporary center for victims and their families near Adamuz. Carmen Moreno, of the Andalusian Red Cross, told The New York Times that they are providing families with food, but information surrounding the crash is what they want most.
&#8220;What people are demanding most is information. And since we cannot give them all the information we would like, there is a lot of tension, a lot of anxiety, temporary anxiety from not knowing what is happening, and sadness,&#8221; she explained.
Spain is currently home to the most extensive high-speed rail system in Europe — and the second-largest in the world, behind only China.

The pilot who kicked roughly 50 Jewish children and teenagers visiting Spain off a flight from Valencia to Paris trained two of the 9/11 hijackers, including Mohamed Atta, the ringleader of the plot that lead to the deaths of 3,000 Americans.
Vueling Airlines confirmed that Ivan Chirivella was the pilot who removed the Jewish teenagers from a Wednesday flight. The children, who were attending summer camp, were on their way to Paris.
“Many of the children were wearing tzitzit and Star of David symbols, and their singing is said to have been consistent with customs of Jewish youth groups,” Israel National News <a href="https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/412246?fbclid=IwY2xjawLwfa5leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHrrMqevEMAUzhfP5cMvqcmwtvBKnRhLwvFulCIgxc0KL2giShc5CSBEfNVQp_aem_dif0r6rGjJpUCTIXdNqSVg">reported</a>, adding, “Flight crew reportedly asked the children to stop singing. When they did not comply, local police were called. Officers instructed the group to place their cell phones on the ground to prevent the incident from being recorded.”
“Chirivella has previously made headlines after his realization that he taught Mohamed Atta and Marwan Al-Shehhi to fly at Jones Aviation prior to the attacks of 9/11.  A year before the World Trade Center attacks, Chirivella flew with the two future hijackers nearly every day for several months,” The Jewish Chronicle <a href="https://www.thejc.com/news/world/pilot-who-kicked-over-50-jewish-children-off-plane-reportedly-taught-9-11-terrorists-to-fly-dejiuf1t">reported</a>.

“Iván Chirivella, originally from the Canary Islands and a Vueling pilot since 2006, operated the flight,&#8221; the airline shared. &#8220;Throughout his 19-year career with the airline, he has accumulated more than 12,500 flight hours, covering routes connecting to more than 30 countries. In addition to his role as captain, Iván Chirivella—like many pilots—also works as an instructor for aviation professionals at an independent flight school,” the airline posted.
A group leader was reportedly thrown to the ground, handcuffed and taken into custody when she protested the way police had intervened. “She was later released after signing a non-disclosure agreement, according to witnesses,” Israel National News noted.
A mother of one of the children told i24NEWS that flight staff threatened him for singing in Hebrew. &#8220;If you continue, we will call the police,&#8221; she said the staff told him.
The airline issued a statement saying that a “group of teenagers displayed disruptive and confrontational behavior,” adding, “The cabin crew was alerted that the group of teenagers was tampering with passenger safety equipment, posing a high risk to the aircraft, passengers, and crew. These actions included attempts to grab life jackets, tamper with overhead oxygen masks, and remove the high-pressure oxygen cylinder—conduct that potentially poses a serious hazard in the cabin.”
“As with any other incident involving safety, the captain was forced to request the intervention of the Civil Guard. After assessing the situation, the Civil Guard proceeded to disembark the group to safeguard the safety of the remaining passengers,” the airline stated.
But testimony came from at least one of the children that the airline was not telling the truth.

President Donald Trump on Wednesday threatened that Spain would have to &#8220;pay twice as much&#8221; in a future trade deal after the NATO member refused to commit to the alliance&#8217;s new target of spending 5% of its gross domestic product on defense and security.
&#8220;You&#8217;re the only country that is not paying. I don&#8217;t know what the problem is,&#8221; Trump said at the NATO summit in The Hague when questioned about Spain&#8217;s refusal to go along.
&#8220;You know what we’re gonna do? We&#8217;re negotiating with Spain on a trade deal. We&#8217;re going to make them pay twice as much. And I&#8217;m actually serious about that,&#8221; the president added.
NATO members <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-triumphs-nato-bows-to-u-s-pressure-with-5-defense-pledge?topStoryPosition=undefined&amp;author=Nathan+Gay&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=2&amp;row=1&amp;rowHeadline=Top+Stories&amp;rowType=Top+Stories&amp;title=Trump+Triumphs%3A+NATO+Bows+To+U.S.+Pressure+With+5%25+Defense+Pledge">agreed</a> to increase defense spending from the current 2% level to 5% of their country’s gross domestic product by 2035. Spain was the only member that rejected this target, arguing that it would strain the country’s extensive welfare state.
“We fully respect the legitimate desire of other countries to increase their defense investment, but we are not going to do it,” Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-heads-to-nato-summit-demanding-freeloading-allies-pay-their-fair-share?author=Nathan+Gay&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=1&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Trump+Heads+To+NATO+Summit+Demanding+%E2%80%98Freeloading%E2%80%99+Allies+Pay+Their+Fair+Share">said</a> before the summit.

&#8220;They want a little bit of a free ride, but they&#8217;ll have to pay it back to us on trade, because I’m not going to let that happen. It’s unfair,” Trump said.
As a part of the European Union, Spain <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-06-25/trump-threatens-to-double-tariffs-on-spain-over-nato-spending">negotiates</a> trade as part of the 27-member bloc, not individually, per Bloomberg. Still, Trump emphasized his intention to bypass the European Union&#8217;s regular trade negotiation protocols.
&#8220;I&#8217;m going to negotiate directly with Spain. I&#8217;m going to do it myself,&#8221; Trump insisted. &#8220;They&#8217;re going to pay, they&#8217;ll pay more money this way.&#8221;
The threat comes ahead of the Trump administration&#8217;s July 9 deadline for the European Union to agree to a trade deal. If no agreement is reached, tariffs on EU products imported into the United States are set to increase to 50%.
NATO members condemned Spain for rejecting the 5% target.
Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz, Deputy Prime Minister of Poland, whose country allocates a higher percentage of its GDP for defense than any NATO member, blasted Spain’s lack of commitment.
“We believe that any deviation from this principle by any member country is a bad example,” he said.
“It’s incredibly unfair to the alliance,” another NATO official <a href="https://www.politico.eu/article/spain-nato-canada-defense-target-spending-gdp/">said</a> to POLITICO.
At the press conference on Wednesday, Trump said his outlook on NATO had changed. Previously critical of &#8220;freeloading&#8221; nations not paying their fair share in defense, he now believes the alliance is no longer a &#8220;rip-off&#8221; given the new 5% commitment. The increase is expected to significantly boost the alliance&#8217;s collective defense capabilities at a time of heightened global tensions, as the United States has historically shouldered more than two-thirds of NATO&#8217;s collective defense spending.

A Spanish couple killed when a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/split-in-half-six-people-killed-in-nyc-helicopter-crash" target="_blank" rel="noopener">helicopter crashed</a> in the Hudson River in New York City on Thursday was identified by authorities as the investigation into the tragedy continues.
Agustín Escobar, a senior executive at German technology firm Siemens, and his wife, Merce Camprubi Montal, were both killed after a tourist helicopter appeared to break apart mid-air before falling into the water, NBC News <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/hudson-helicopter-crash-victims-named-rcna200801" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>. Three minors, who are reportedly the children of Escobar and Montal, were also killed but have not been identified. The name of the pilot who died in the crash has also not been released as of Friday morning.
Escobar brought his family to New York City after a business trip, and the family was celebrating Montal&#8217;s 40th birthday on Thursday when they went on the tourist helicopter flight, according to Jersey City Mayor Steven Fulop, who added that the children were all 11 years old and under. The Spanish newspaper El Diario <a href="https://www.eldiario.es/internacional/muere-familia-espanola-accidente-helicoptero-nueva-york_1_12212531.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> that the trip was to celebrate the birthday of one of the children.
A video posted on social media showed the Bell 206 helicopter falling from the sky after it appeared to lose its propellers. Witnesses described hearing a loud boom and then seeing the helicopter &#8220;split in half.&#8221; One witness told ABC News that she “heard five or six loud noises that sounded almost like gunshots in the sky and saw pieces fall off, then watched it fall into the river.”
Authorities quickly recovered all six bodies from the Hudson River Thursday evening. Four of the victims were pronounced dead at the scene, and two more were transported to a hospital, where they were later pronounced dead. Later that night, the helicopter was removed from the river.
Michael Roth, the CEO of New York Helicopter Tours, said the pilot called in before the crash to say that he needed fuel and was preparing to return, The Telegraph <a href="https://www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025/04/10/helicopter-hudson-river-crash-live-latest/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>. Roth added, &#8220;It should have taken him about three minutes to arrive, but 20 minutes later, he didn’t arrive.&#8221;
&#8220;We’re all devastated,&#8221; he said.
Leaders in the United States and Spain mourned the deaths. Spain&#8217;s prime minister, Pedro Sanchez, called the crash &#8220;an unimaginable tragedy.&#8221; President Donald Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114316199673595819" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a> on Truth Social, &#8220;The footage of the accident is horrendous.&#8221;
&#8220;God bless the families and friends of the victims,&#8221; he added. &#8220;Secretary of Transportation, Sean Duffy, and his talented staff are on it. Announcements as to exactly what took place, and how, will be made shortly!&#8221;

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/brad-pitt">Brad Pitt</a>’s rep shared his reaction to multiple <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/fraud">scammers</a> pretending to be the movie star on social media, which resulted in several victims being tricked out of more than $350,000.
&#8220;It’s awful that scammers take advantage of fans’ strong connection with celebrities, and this is an important reminder to not respond to unsolicited online outreach, especially from actors who have no social media presence,” the actor’s spokesperson said, per <a href="https://people.com/brad-pitt-rep-speaks-out-scammers-pose-as-actor-8718169">People</a>.
A recently published press release from <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/spain">Spain</a>&#8216;s Ministry of the Interior detailed some of the alleged crimes, including scam artists pretending to be Pitt and initiating online relationships with the victims. These individuals then had the women transfer money into various accounts by claiming they were investing in his upcoming projects, the outlet noted.
The scammers &#8220;managed to make these women believe they had become so close to the well-known American actor that they believed they had a romantic relationship with him,&#8221; the docs said. One woman was duped into transferring around $167,000, while another got bilked out of approximately $195,500.
So far, five total suspects have been arrested in connection with the scam and were charged with crimes including fraud, money laundering, and forgery, per Spanish authorities.

The victims were targeted through Brad Pitt fan pages. The 60-year-old “Ad Astra” star has no official authorized social media accounts on Instagram, X, Facebook, or TikTok.
Pitt has voiced his disinterest in using social media in the past. He told GQ during a 2014 <a href="https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/article/brad-pitt-british-gq-november-issue-cover-story-interview">interview</a> that he sees social media as being more trouble than it&#8217;s worth.
“Listen, I see a benefit in it. You could, you know, combat the misconceptions or the misquotes immediately. And if I&#8217;d have had that in my younger days, I&#8217;d have used it,&#8221; the actor said at the time. 
&#8220;Because I felt quite used, and completely misunderstood, and misread, and not given the benefit of the doubt,&#8221; Pitt continued. &#8220;You know, I felt that a lot in my first years. I would have brought some logic to the table, and brought it immediately. But now, at this point, I don&#8217;t want to bother with it.&#8221;
In 2019, the actor <a href="https://www.eonline.com/news/1058939/here-s-why-brad-pitt-isn-t-joining-instagram-anytime-soon">said</a> he didn’t “see the point” in creating an Instagram account.

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/katy-perry">Katy Perry</a>’s record label Capitol Records hit back at claims that the singer had filmed a music video on protected dunes on a Spanish Island, saying they were given approval prior to shooting.
Following an investigation by Spain authorities into the 39-year-old singer allegedly filming her video “Lifetimes” at the dunes of S’Espalmador without permission, her label said it had been told verbally it was fine a day before the shoot, <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/pop-culture/pop-culture-news/katy-perry-video-investigated-filming-protected-spanish-sand-dunes-lab-rcna166476">NBC</a> reported.
A rep for the record label said that the music video production company, WeOwnTheCity, “assured us that all necessary permits for the video were secured.”
“We have since learned that one permit was in process, although we were given verbal authority to go ahead,” the spokesperson said. “Our local crew on July 22 applied for a permit for this specific location with the Directorate-General For Coasts And Coastline.”
“Our crew received verbal approval on July 26 to proceed with the filming on July 27,” the label rep added. “We adhered to all regulations associated with filming in this area and have the utmost respect for this location and the officials tasked with protecting it.”
In the video, Perry can be seen dancing on the islands of Ibiza and Formentera and in nightclubs. Her video shoot was partially filmed on the island, which contains sand dunes that the Spanish government says have “great ecological value,” <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c20411z4q34o">according</a> to the BBC.

Singer <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/katy-perry">Katy Perry</a> is being investigated by authorities for allegedly filming a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/music">music video</a> on Spanish islands without proper authorization.
During a video shoot for the pop star’s new song “Lifetimes,” Perry can be seen dancing on the islands of Ibiza and Formentera and in nightclubs. Her video shoot was partially filmed on the uninhabited island of S’Espalmador, which contains sand dunes that the Spanish government says have “great ecological value,” <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c20411z4q34o">according</a> to the BBC.

This latest development comes just after fans and critics slammed Perry for her single “Woman’s World.” According to <a href="https://time.com/7010893/why-officials-in-spain-are-investigating-katy-perry-music-video/">Time</a>, the lyrics &#8220;appeared to be feminist on the surface&#8221; but were &#8220;combined with a video that many believe catered to the male gaze.&#8221; The backlash to the song prompted the singer to insist it was meant to be “satire.”
In the music video, Perry dances around in skimpy outfits while repeating the chorus line, “It’s a woman’s world and you’re lucky to be living in it.” At one point, the singer gets crushed by an anvil, then gets reinflated and keeps marching around streets filled with chaos. The song ends as she rides off in a helicopter holding the symbol for the female gender.
Mainstream critics weren’t fans, with <a href="https://www.vulture.com/article/katy-perry-womans-world-song-review.html">Vulture</a> saying the song was “the stalest sort of retread.” <a href="https://www.thecut.com/article/womans-world-review-katy-perry-is-stuck-in-2016.html">The Cut</a> reviewer said “Woman’s World” was “forgettable” and “cringe,” while <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/music/article/2024/jul/12/katy-perry-womans-world-review">The Guardian</a> called it “regressive” and “dated.”
Perry responded on social media, posting, “YOU CAN DO ANYTHING! EVEN SATIRE!”
The singer <a href="https://www.facebook.com/katyperry/videos/you-can-do-anything-even-satire/1762228554301692/">shared</a> a behind-the-scenes clip and said, “We’re kind of just having fun being a bit sarcastic with it. It’s very slapstick and very on the nose.”
Perry&#8217;s sixth studio album, &#8220;143,&#8221; drops on September 20.

Katy Perry Under Investigation In Spain For Possibly Damaging Sand Dunes While Filming Music Video

A Spanish father strode on stage and punched a leftist comedian who had made &#8220;sexualizing&#8221; comments about the father’s three-month-old son on social media.
Comedian Jaime Caravaca had responded to a photo Alberto Pugilato had posted of himself and his three-month-son on Twitter captioned “Pride and joy” by writing, “Nothing and no one can prevent the possibility that he is gay, and when he grows up he gets tired of sucking black c***.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

Pugilato fired back on Twitter, “I assure you that you are going to apologize for what you said about my 3-month-old son and you will discover that real life is not Twitter.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

In Madrid on Monday, Caravaca was in the middle of his monologue when Pugilato climbed on stage and took a swing at him, yelling, “Those pedophilic comments about my son&#8230;say them to my face&#8230;you piece of trash&#8230;now!” according to <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13492357/Astonishing-moment-irate-Spanish-father-punches-comedian-face-stage-making-outrageous-sexualised-joke-three-month-old-son.html">The Daily Mail</a>. “&#8217;What were you saying, huh? That my son was going to eat c***? He&#8217;s three-months-old. Trash. Now what? Say it to my face &#8230; say it to my face now.”
When a man attempted to intercede, Pugilato said, “I&#8217;m sorry, I&#8217;m sorry, I&#8217;m just a father who is defending his child. He has made sexualizing comments about my three-month-old son.” Pointing to Caravaca, he stated, “That has its consequences,” then called him a clown before hitting him in the face again and leaving the stage.

“Gossip Girl” actress <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/celebrities">Taylor Momsen</a> was bitten by a bat while performing on stage in Sevilla, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/spain">Spain</a>, forcing her to get rabies shots over the course of two weeks.
The 30-year-old <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/entertainment">singer</a> was opening for AC/DC on the European portion of their Power Up tour when the incident happened. Besides working in Hollywood as a TV actress, Momsen is the lead singer of the band The Pretty Reckless.
Momsen was performing the song &#8220;Witches Burn&#8221; when the bat attached itself to the hem of her dress and bit her leg.
&#8220;So … ROCK AND ROLL MOMENT … in Sevilla Wednesday during &#8220;Witches Burn&#8221; of all songs… a BAT flew onto me and clung to my leg …&#8221; the singer shared in her Instagram post caption.

&#8220;In the moment I was performing and had no idea until the incredible crowd kept screaming and pointing,&#8221; the post continued. &#8220;He was cute, but yes he bit me … so rabies shots for the next two weeks thanks to all the staff at the hospital who dubbed me #batgirl after seeing it on the local news that morning … more footage to come … that’s one for the books!!!! @acdc #pwrup #BATGIRL.&#8221;
&#8220;You guys are pointing at something and I don&#8217;t know what you&#8217;re saying,&#8221; Momsen can be heard telling the audience in the video clip. The singer turned around and bent over to see the bat clinging to her dress.
&#8220;Holy f***!&#8221; she yelled before returning to the mic. &#8220;There&#8217;s a f***ing flying bat on my leg right now,” she added, addressing the stage crew to ask for help. &#8220;I must really be a witch,&#8221; Momsen said.
The singer went on to thank the audience and say, “It’s all right,” after the bat was taken away. &#8220;And the bat&#8217;s fine,&#8221; Momsen said. &#8220;He&#8217;s gonna be my new friend.&#8221;
She also shared footage of herself in the hospital receiving shots to prevent rabies. 
Per the <a href="https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/rabies/symptoms-causes/syc-20351821">Mayo Clinic</a>, rabies is a deadly virus spread to people from the saliva of infected animals. It’s usually transmitted through a bite.
Once a person begins showing signs of rabies, the disease nearly always causes death. That’s why anyone who may have been exposed to the virus must receive vaccinations immediately. 
Early symptoms of rabies are similar to those of the flu, while later the symptoms may include fever, headache, nausea, vomiting, agitation, anxiety, confusion, hyperactivity, difficulty swallowing, excessive salivation, fear of consuming fluid, hallucinations, insomnia, and partial paralysis.
