Mel Gibson Getting Gun Rights Restored by Trump’s Justice Department
Mel Gibson
Trump Allows Him to Have Guns Again
Published
Mel Gibson is having his right to bear arms restored … and his support for President Trump sounds like it’s playing a big role.
Trump’s Justice Department is going to allow Mel to own guns again despite him pleading no contest in 2011 to a battery charge involving his former girlfriend, a legal issue that made it impossible for him to buy firearms … according to the New York Times.
Mel is one of 10 people with convictions who are getting back their gun rights, the NYT reported Thursday, and Mel’s inclusion sparked a fierce debate at the top of the Justice Department … a disagreement that allegedly resulted in a couple firings.
The former U.S. pardon attorney, Elizabeth G. Oyer, was reportedly fired earlier this month after she opposed restoring actor Mel’s gun rights … according to NBC News. Oyer told the Times she was told to change her stance on Gibson because he “has a personal relationship with President Trump.”
The NYT reports Attorney General Pam Bondi ultimately signed off on Mel getting his gun rights returned.
Mel reportedly tried to buy a weapon in Nevada but was denied because of the battery case …. but now the feds are giving him the green light to stay strapped.
We reached out to Mel’s camp … so far, no word back.

Hugs RFK Jr. …
Snubs Cheryl Hines at UFC Event
Published
President Trump gave RFK Jr.‘s wife, Cheryl Hines, the cold shoulder, refusing to shake her hand as he made the rounds at UFC 314 in Florida Saturday night.
The Commander in Chief kicked things off by making a grand entrance to the event in Miami, entering the arena to thunderous applause with UFC bigwig Dana White and shaking hands with supporters.
When he finally got to RFK Jr. standing in the crowd, Trump gave a light hug to his Secretary of Health and Human Services, but then snubbed Hines.
Check out the video, which shows Cheryl extend her hand to Trump as he passes by her, but Trump completely ignores her, moving on to greet the next person.
Hines’ reaction says it all … she looks totally embarrassed as she makes a hand gesture and peers over to RFK Jr., who doesn’t seem to respond.
Other than that … Trump was very warm to everyone else at the jam-packed Kaseya Center.
As he settled in ringside, Trump sat between podcaster Joe Rogan and his Department of Government Efficiency head, billionaire Elon Musk.
The prez also brought along his granddaughter, Kai Trump, and several other members of his administration, including FBI Director Kash Patel, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.
Shooter McGavin
‘Happy Gilmore 2’ Is
‘Going To Be Fantastic!!!’

Good news for those hoping to bust out their Boston Bruins jerseys and hockey stick putters this summer … Christopher McDonald — the man who played Shooter McGavin in “Happy Gilmore” — tells TMZ Sports that Adam Sandler‘s golf flick’s sequel is going to rock.
“Happy Gilmore 2” is slated to drop on Netflix on July 25 … and when we caught up with McDonald out at LAX this week, he told us it’s “going to be fantastic.”

The 70-year-old, who’s reprising his Shooter role for the film, didn’t want to reveal too much more about the movie — he stated he’s signed an NDA so he’s sworn to secrecy for now — but he did joke he was sure it’d be good because “I love me.”
The film seems to follow Sandler’s Gilmore character in the decades after he beat McGavin for the Tour Championship … and based on some of the previews that have dropped, it looks like Sandler and McDonald will be renewing their on-screen rivalry for Part II.
They’ll interact with a bunch of celebs along the way — John Daly and music superstar Bad Bunny are in it … as are Bryson DeChambeau and Rory McIlroy. Travis Kelce, of course, has a part as well.
Hope you all have fun and thanks for all the great times. pic.twitter.com/uTfPdouoIR

We’ll all have to wait roughly four more months to see the finished product with our own eyes — but check out our interview with McDonald, he did take some time to dive into another topic with us while we stand by … golfing presidents!
