Dick Button: A Tribute
The incomparable Dick Button – the face of figure skating on TV for more than 50 years – died on January 30 at the age of 95.
Button, a 1948 and ’52 Olympic Gold Medal winner, went on to become synonymous with commentating on his sport for both ABC and ESPN, starting with the 1960 Winter Games and continuing into 2010.
Button was a Class of 2015 inductee of the Sports Broadcasting Hall of Fame. This tribute video is from that induction ceremony.

FBI Is Still Stalling and Refuses to Turn Over the Seth Rich Records – The Information Could Take Down Democrat Party for a Generation

Seth Rich
The FBI is stalling again. The world’s top intelligence agency is still refusing to turn over the Seth Rich records to Attorney Ty Clevenger.
Attorney Ty Clevenger is the bulldog attorney who has been working for years to get to the bottom of the Seth Rich murder. His requests continue to be denied by the FBI. Kash Patel cannot be sworn in as FBI Director soon enough!
Clevenger previously investigated who supplied the DNC and Podesta emails to Wikileaks during the 2016 election cycle. This was always the key to the Trump-Russia collusion nonsense. No proof was ever offered up by the fake news legacy media, Democrats, or the intelligence community involving this scandal. If Russia did not supply the DNC emails to WikiLeaks then this was more proof that the DOJ’s Russia collusion story was a complete lie used to fool the American public.
Seth Rich was a DNC operative who was mysteriously murdered in the summer of 2016 weeks before Wikileaks released their Clinton email investigation. The murder is still unsolved.
After years of denying they had anything related to Seth Rich, the FBI and DOJ were caught lying over and over again. In September 2023, a judge finally demanded the FBI and DOJ provide all they had regarding Seth Rich to Attorney Clevenger. The FBI responded requesting another 66 years before releasing the information. They wanted it moved out like the JFK assassination reports.
Then in late November 2023, a Federal Judge ruled the FBI must hand over evidence regarding former DNC employee Seth Rich’s murder to Ty Clevenger.
No media outlet has covered the Seth Rich story as extensively as The Gateway Pundit.
But since the November 2023 court order the FBI has completely dug in in the coverup of the Seth Rich murder. Chris Wray’s FBI continues to defy the court and will not release the laptop computer.
On Thursday, Attorney Ty Clevenger released a string of tweets on the latest in the Seth Rich investigation.
(2/5) On August 16, 2024, Judge Amos Mazzant ordered the FBI to process and produce records from Seth’s electronic devices not later than February 7, 2025. A few weeks later, in order to expedite things before the election…

(4/5) When the FBI first suggested last week that it might need more time, I asked again if it could just produce file names and metadata. The FBI did not respond. Today it just asked for another 30 days, but it did not address file names and metadata…
— Ty Clevenger (@Ty_Clevenger) January 30, 2025
(5/5) In fairness, the FBI is “only” asking for another 30 days, but I’ve been doing this for almost 8 years. I know what happens next: the FBI creates another delay. Enough is enough. It’s time for @Kash_Patel to be confirmed so he can can light a fire under these people.
— Ty Clevenger (@Ty_Clevenger) January 30, 2025
Could it be that the Seth Rich computer confirms that he leaked the Hillary Clinton emails to Wikileaks as its founder Julian Assange implied?
The American people deserve to know the truth about this horrific murder and political scandal.
The US Senate MUST confirm Kash Patel as the next FBI Directer. And Kash must expose the facts of this scandal once and for all.
Could it be that the FBI blamed Russia for leaking the emails when they knew that was not the truth? There was no computer hack. The emails were leaked.
And could this explain Seth Rich’s mysterious death?
