Opening Day is still a few weeks away, but President Donald Trump threw one high and tight Friday night … torching baseball for not enshrining the late legend Pete Rose in Cooperstown!

POTUS, a big baseball fan, unloaded on MLB leadership and HOF voters, blasting commish Rob Manfred (although not by name) and writers for keeping the all-time hit leader out of the Hall, even in death.

“Major League Baseball didn’t have the courage or decency to put the late, great, Pete Rose, also known as ‘Charlie Hustle,’ into the Baseball Hall of Fame,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“Now he is dead, will never experience the thrill of being selected, even though he was a FAR BETTER PLAYER than most who made it, and can only be named posthumously. WHAT A SHAME!”

DT’s not wrong about Rose being better than most in Cooperstown (and that’s saying a lot!). The Cincinnati Reds legend was one of the very greatest to grace a diamond.

47 continued, promising to wipe the slate clean for Rose … after he was convicted of failing to report income he earned from signing autographs, a felony, in 1990.

“Anyway, over the next few weeks I will be signing a complete PARDON of Pete Rose, who shouldn’t have been gambling on baseball, but only ever on HIS TEAM WINNING. He never bet against himself, or the other team.”

The president ended his diatribe by highlighting a few of Pete’s career achievements and with a warning for baseball.

“He had the most hits, by far, in baseball history, and won more games than anyone in sports history. Baseball, which is dying all over the place, should get off its fat, lazy ass, and elect Pete Rose, even though it’s far too late, into the Baseball Hall of Fame.”

Rose was permanently banned from Major League Baseball in 1989 after an investigation concluded he wagered on baseball (which he later admitted to), leaving him ineligible for the Hall.

Despite pressure over the years from fans and people like Trump (who previously spoke out for Pete), MLB hasn’t budged on their stance.

Several of the late Gene Hackman‘s items were taken during a search after the bodies of him and his wife were found in their New Mexico home … and TMZ has obtained the full list.

According to police documents … deputies who conducted the search at the home took a thyroid medication, Tylenol and Diltiazem — a calcium-blocker used to treat high blood pressure and other heart-related issues.

Cops also took records from MyQuest — a healthcare website used to check test results, schedule appointments and keep track of one’s health history. A 2025 calendar and two cell phones were also taken.

As you know … authorities secured a search warrant after calling Gene and his wife’s Betsy‘s deaths “suspicious.”

Officers noted pills were scattered next to Arakawa’s body, a dog was dead inside the home and there were no obvious signs of a gas leak — all of which made them decide to investigate further.

Authorities rushed to the house Wednesday after receiving a “man down” call from a caretaker of their neighborhood who said he saw two motionless people inside the home. Authorities rushed into the unlocked home … and, found both Gene and Betsy obviously dead.

The sheriff and the fire chief both appeared on “TODAY” Friday morning … and, they admitted the couple may have been dead for days — even weeks.

Nepo babies are all over Hollywood …. and, we’ve got a few sexy snapshots of one superstar’s offspring — can you guess who it is?

This celebrity kid is all grown up … and showing off every inch of her tanned bod to the camera — and, it’s clear she’s hitting the lens with her best shot.

Just like her mother, this mystery woman joined the music industry … dropping new songs, including her track “Reputation,” last year.

Her hottest shots are certainly drawing a ton of eyes — and, could lead to a whole lotta fans fighting for her love … on a battlefield.
