Argus Hamilton's Rogue Report

Oscar winner Joaquin Phoenix returns in his signature movie role in a sequel to The Joker this fall in The Joker Folie au Deux. The actor always comes to the studio prepared. To play the role of an insane and mentally depressed clown, he bought a Dallas Cowboys season ticket and went to every game.

• NBA coaching legend Phil Jackson said he stopped watching NBA games, saying players have turned it into a political soapbox. It's left and right. The players express support for the progressive agenda with social justice phrases printed on jerseys, and Donald Trump's favorite player is John Wall.

• Santa Fe prosecutors dropped charges against Alec Baldwin Thursday in the shooting death on his movie set in New Mexico. While standing in front of the movie cameras, Alec's gun went off, shot and killed his cinematographer, but now he won't have to stand trial for it. Even O.J. can't believe it.

• Donald Trump is accused of defaming a journalist for denying he raped her by saying she wasn't his type. Trump's bachelor life in the Seventies, covered extensively by the New York tabloids, was spent pursuing beauty queens. If I learned one thing in college it's that beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.

• Pew Research reported that Millennials are leading the shift away from organized religion. Jesus couldn't feed 5,000 Millennials with five loaves and seven fish.
