Jessica Tarlov Has Perfect Clapback After Fox News Co-Host Criticizes Abdul El-Sayed For Not Being A 'Practicing Physician'
Oct 02, 2026
Fox News host Jessica Tarlov had the perfect response to her colleague Emily Compagno after Compagno complained that Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed is not a "practicing physician."
El-Sayed, an epidemiologist who campaigned on expanding healthcare access, strengthening the economy, and ending unconditional U.S. military aid to Israel, became the first progressive to win a statewide primary in a state carried by President Donald Trump in the 2024 election. He is set to face former Republican Congressman Mike Rogers during next month's midterms.
Speaking on The Five, Tarlov praised him for targeting "Make America Healthy Again" (MAHA) voters since he's "actually a doctor," a remark that underscores just how unqualified Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy is for his position.
Kennedy, who lacks medical or scientific training, has argued that drug companies and regulatory agencies harm Americans’ health. He has even proposed that certain vaccines should be removed from the market and is well-known for sharing conspiracy theories about vaccines, particularly those for measles and COVID-19.
Kennedy spearheads the controversial MAHA initiative—and he previously filed for a MAHA trademark for potential use in marketing supplements, vitamins, essential oils, and cryptocurrency, according to documents filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.
Referring to El-Sayed and his policy platform, Tarlov said:
"Abdul has a legitimate reason to be targeting these MAHA voters; he's actually a doctor. And he can point to the results under Bobby Kennedy's HHS and say that 'We are sicker as a result of this.'"
"I think this is good stuff: going after pesticides in the food, that you should be able to sue the pesticide manufacturers, accountability for polluters, getting lead and microplastics out of our water. What could be bad there?"
Compagno replied:
"Yeah, he's an M.D. He's not a practicing physician."
Tarlov was prepared:
“Well, Bobby Kennedy is a nothing.”
And when Compagno responded that Kennedy is HHS Secretary, Tarlov said:
“He’s confirmed as that, but I’m saying on the scale of going to medical school and getting through that, he’s a zero."
When co-host Jesse Watters said Kennedy "is in better shape," Tarlov replied that Kennedy "wears jeans to work out, like all real men." The comment refers to the times Kennedy has filmed himself working out while wearing jeans—impractical for workouts—and also takes a jab at Watters, who dedicates considerable time on the network to opining about what "real men" do.
You can watch what happened in the video below.
Many appreciated Tarlov's responses—and people had much to say about Kennedy's qualifications, or lack thereof.
We wonder how Tarlov doesn't lose her cool sitting next to people this dense every day.

Pete Hegseth Just Threw Out A Bunch Of Absurd Slurs While Talking About Transforming The Military—And Gavin Newsom Clapped Back Hard
Oct 02, 2026
California Governor Gavin Newsom mocked Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth after Hegseth delivered a slur-filled speech about who he's trying to bar from U.S. military service.
Speaking at U.S. Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia, Hegseth claimed that the Trump administration's cultural reimagining of the nation's armed forces has been a grand success. But, as evidenced by what he told those in attendance, this "success" was only possible because the Department of Defense has made no secret of excluding certain groups.
He bragged:
"It's worth saying again so the fake news understands it: we are no longer the woke department or the weak department."
"Simple translation of that: No fatties, no tr*nnies, no beardos, no weirdos, no wimps, no radicals. Just warriors, just tough, ready, committed troops."
"The War Department, as you know, is colorblind, gender neutral, and merit-based. Or, as the president likes to repeat: central casting."
Hegseth went on to add that "the ideological clowns are out, the patriotic cowboys are in, with testosterone testing on top." This is in line with an announcement Hegseth made over the summer that service members age 30 and older will be screened annually and treated for testosterone deficiency.
The decision to screen active-duty service members for testosterone levels and offering testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) when appropriate is part of an effort to keep U.S. troops on the "leading edge of lethality."
You can hear what Hegseth said in the video below.
Hegseth's speech soon attracted the attention of Newsom, who pointed out how much Hegseth's declarations make no sense.
For starters, President Donald Trump's antics alone inspired Minnesota Governor Tim Walz to point out just how "weird" he and other Republicans are—and it's not like Trump's gotten any less weird in the nearly two years since he returned to office.
Secondly, Vice President JD Vance is always looking a little scruffy, so it's not like he'd qualify for military service based on Hegseth's prescriptions.
Newsom summed it up pretty well when he shared a photo of Trump and Vance and remarked:
"You heard the man. No beardos and weirdos."
You can see his response below.
Many have condemned Hegseth's remarks, not to mention his hypocrisy.
Hegseth previously said his move to refer to the Department of Defense as the "Department of War" is important because the country has lost its "warrior ethos" and that the country's founders "wanted an empowered military—the handcuffs were taken off—to fight to win, and then bring those troops home."
Despite criticism of his own physical condition, Hegseth has encouraged service members to watch or read a speech he delivered in May at Quantico in which he declared the end of what he called a “woke” military, criticized “fat generals,” and said female troops should be held to the same physical fitness standards as men.

Florence Pugh Revealed That Tom Holland Is The Reason She Appears In 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day'—And We Love To See It
Oct 01, 2026
Florence Pugh has built a career on scene-stealing performances, but her latest Marvel appearance came with one particularly flattering endorsement: Spider-Man himself.
While promoting her latest historical drama, East of Eden, Pugh stopped by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where she was asked about her surprise appearance as Yelena Belova in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
And for anyone who doesn’t mind a spoiler, Pugh appears in a hilarious bathhouse scene, where Spider-Man visits Yelena’s unconventional “office” looking for information.
Pugh revealed who orchestrated the surprise cameo:
“Oh, you know, this all happened because of Tom…”
That’s right. Back in 2021, while speaking with Entertainment Tonight at the Spider-Man: No Way Home premiere, Holland was given some pretty big names to choose from for his next Marvel team-up, including Angelina Jolie and Harry Styles. Instead, Holland had someone else in mind: Pugh.
The Oscar-nominated Pugh took Fallon back to where it all began:
“Years ago, when I just kind of started my relationship with Marvel and Black Widow had come out, my Yelena wasn’t as obviously big as all of the other big superheroes. He, on the red carpet of his previous movie, when someone said, ‘Who do you want to be in the next movie with? Do you want to be with Thor?’ I don’t remember the superheroes, but they were all massive superheroes…”
Holland and Pugh had yet to work together, but by then, Pugh had made her MCU debut in 2021’s Black Widow, stealing scenes as Yelena Belova, the younger sister of Scarlett Johansson’s Natasha Romanoff and eventual successor to the Black Widow mantle.
Clearly, Pugh’s MCU debut left an impression on Holland:
- YouTubeEntertainment Tonight
Pugh shared what came next:
“Fans were then so excited about the idea of it, and that started the ball rolling.”
And roll it did. Flash forward five years, and Holland’s wish became a $2.49 billion reality. Spider-Man: Brand New Day is now the third highest-grossing movie of all time, with more than $950 million earned domestically.

Spidey may not be finished at the box office, either. A theatrical re-release with extra footage is reportedly in the works, including a previously cut scene featuring Rosario Dawson as Claire Temple, though no date has been announced.
Thanks to Holland, Yelena squeezed in one more Marvel appearance before all hell presumably breaks loose in Avengers: Doomsday.
Marvel fans had this to say:
Pugh’s latest project takes her far outside the MCU. The seven-episode Netflix limited series East of Eden adapts John Steinbeck’s 1952 novel, with Pugh starring as Cathy Ames in the multigenerational saga set in California’s Salinas Valley.
You can watch the trailer here:
- YouTubeNetflix
Pugh will then return as Princess Irulan in Dune: Part Three and as Yelena in Avengers: Doomsday, both arriving December 18.
As for another Pugh and Holland reunion? Nothing is confirmed, but after Holland helped make their first Marvel crossover happen, perhaps they’ll find their way back to the same screen someday—with or without the bathhouse, belly buttons, and/or superhero suits.

Woman Reveals The Fallout After She Caught Her Sister's Fiancé Cheating Just 2 Hours Before Their Wedding
Oct 01, 2026
Some people would rather live in a state of oblivion than know the truth.
TikToker @kelsgordon realized her sister was one of those people when she discovered, just two hours before her sister's wedding, that her sister's fiancé had a whole other romantic relationship in the works—and she intended to go ahead with the wedding anyway.
As a member of the wedding party, the TikToker was assigned the job of checking in on the groom and groomsmen to make sure they were running on time for the ceremony. Upon checking on them, everything was going well, except the groom was nowhere to be found.
After a lot of back-and-forth with the men, the best man said the groom was probably in his hotel room.
TikToker @kelsgordon went to the groom's hotel room and knocked on the door, only for a woman she didn't know to answer. The woman tried to send her away, claiming that she must have the wrong room, since she claimed she was on the wedding trip with one of the groomsmen, not the groom.
But after a lot of back and forth with her as well, the TikToker confirmed that the woman was actually dating the groom, who had convinced her that he was single and invited her on his wedding weekend when he was actually set to get married. The TikToker was confident that the woman looked far too shocked to have known that she was an affair partner, and she volunteered that she'd been seeing him for eight months and had met all of his friends, including the other men in the wedding party, as well as his family.
TikToker @kelsgordon returned to her sister, where she revealed her discovery, only for the bride and their mother to claim that she was lying and trying to create drama just two hours before the wedding.
The bride insisted that if she really loved her, she'd shut her mouth about what she thought she knew and let her get happily married, so the TikToker stopped talking.
But right before the ceremony started, the groom's mother walked in arm-in-arm with the affair partner, and she approached the groom, insisting that he needed to call off the wedding and marry his true partner.
Soon after, the bride got involved, and everyone ended up in tears before the groom called the wedding off, claiming that he couldn't go through with the ceremony when his heart was partially with someone else.
You can watch the video here:

Fellow TikTokers reassured TikToker @kelsgordon that she was right to tell the bride, even if she was angry with her when she learned the truth.











Fellow TikTokers couldn't help but wonder if the bride already knew about the affair or had suspicions and was too insecure to let go of the relationship where she was at least partially welcome. Or perhaps she was more interested in her social image and having a party than in having an actual marriage.
Whatever the case, it was better for the sister in the long run to go separate ways with the groom before getting married, rather than having to go through a divorce later when she finally decided that she'd had enough of her cheating husband.

Woman Shares The Biggest 'Red Flags' That A Friendship Is Ending—And TikTokers Are Sounding Off
Oct 01, 2026
Most of us have experienced a friendship coming to an end, and while it sometimes comes as a surprise, we can usually look back and see some signs that the end was near.
TikToker @maddieogle10, for example, believes that it's obvious that a friendship is coming to an end when something starts to feel off or like the friend is losing interest.
Because she takes her friendships seriously and invests time, energy, and attention into those relationships, she notices quickly when something changes.
She observed:
"I take my friendships very seriously. There are not a lot of people in my life who have not already been in my life for five-plus years."
"Every single time a friendship has ended or someone has screwed me over, these things happened."
How much the person cares begins to dwindle.
"The friend stops asking about anything personal in your life."
"When you're talking, they don't ask you a single question about yourself."
They put more effort into a screen than into you.
"If you're out with them, and they're on their phone the entire time."
"I understand that we're not on a date, but I think that is so rude and disrespectful."
"If I'm going out of my way, spending money to go out, and you're just sitting there on your phone the whole time and making me look stupid, why am I even here?"
The TikToker reassured viewers that these were not high standards to have.
"A friendship is still a relationship, even if it's not romantic, and respect still goes both ways."
You can watch the video here:
@maddieogle10 Treat your friendships like a relationship because your bf isn’t the only person that deserves respect🫶🏻 #relationships #rant #relationshipstorytime #friendbreakup #fakefriends #ifyouthinkthisisaboutyouthenitis #fyp #foru #girls #girltalk
Fellow TikTokers totally agreed with TikToker @maddieogle10 that friendships deserve to be taken as seriously as other relationships.
Many voiced their displeasure over not feeling valued by their friends, understanding that their "friends" must now view other people, a romantic partner, or even a screen as more important than their friendship.











Friends are meant to be there for each other through thick and thin, and those relationships go far beyond romance.
Fellow TikTokers agreed that wanting a friend to care about your life and to focus on you when you've made time to see them shouldn't be considered high maintenance. Those are two easy ways to help a friendship continue to grow.
