Elon Musk‘s email ultimatum directing federal workers to justify their job positions is nothing but a scam the American public can see right through … so says a top Democratic senator.

The U.S. Senator from Minnesota, Tina Smith, joined us on “TMZ Live” Monday — branding Elon as nothing but a bully using his power to be a jerk, labeling his actions as downright harassment.

Catch the video … ’cause we pointed out it seemed like the White House seems to revel in the outrage over Elon’s latest power play — and she made it clear that’s definitely the case.

Filming for Christopher Nolan’s next movie “The Odyssey” has set sail, and TMZ has photos of Nolan on set for the first time!

Shooting started a couple weeks back, with the crew currently in the village of Aït Benhaddou in the country of Morocco — and from the looks of this set, just like the story itself, this thing is going to be epic!

The news Nolan is tackling this ancient text has prompted some folks to dust off their copy of the tale that’s surely been collecting dust since high school, to refresh their memory before the film’s release in July 2026.

Universal announced the cast in December, with mega-watt talent and Nolan mainstays like Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway, Robert Pattinson, Zendaya, Tom Holland, Lupita Nyong’o, and Charlize Theron all jumping on board.

Universal also recently dropped a pic of Damon, playing the lead, Odysseus, in full historical garb … and he looks like he means business!

Their next scheduled location to film is Sicily, Italy and the island community of Favignana, a location actually mentioned in the original 8th Century epic poem!

This curvaceous cougar has been on the prowl for a while now, but she still looks fresh and fierce as ever … even after crossing into her fifth decade!

Over the years, we’ve seen this gorgeous model on magazine covers, in music videos, and lately modeling lingerie in snowy Aspen. Most recently, she was bouncing around totally topless on the beaches of St. Barts with her younger hubby just last month.

In fact, this German bombshell’s been a free-the-nipple pioneer for a long time.

Still wondering who this Bavarian beauty could be? She was married for nearly a decade to a certain British singing heartthrob who goes by the name Seal, and they share 4 kids together. She’s even passed the modeling blowtorch to her daughter, teaming up for a lingerie photo shoot last fall.
