Basketball legend Michael Jordan had a big day on Sunday. The six-time NBA Champion gained another accomplishment under his belt after NSCAR driver Tyler Reddick won the Daytona 500 in a car Jordan owns. However, Jordan and Reddick’s big win was overshadowed after a video released showed Jordan pinching Reddick’s child’s shirt during the victory celebration. Take a look: Interesting celebration choice by Michael Jordan after winning the Daytona 500. pic.twitter.com/lK42WZkPQT — Breaking911 (@Breaking911) February 16, 2026 Here’s how users on X reacted: New: Michael Jordan is getting massive blowback after his victory celebration at the Daytona 500 where he is being accused of inappropriately touching a child pic.twitter.com/HCp4XlLydg — The Calvin Coolidge Project (@TheCalvinCooli1) February 16, 2026 What on earth is Michael Jordan doing…??

The kid is wet and probably has ice down his shirt after the celebration. Stop trying to pretend that Michael Jordan sexually assaulted a kid on national TV. It says MORE about you than him. pic.twitter.com/6eZPrlyTRt — Brian Krassenstein (@krassenstein) February 16, 2026 Lad Bible reported more details on the now viral video: Basketball legend Michael Jordan has come under fire after footage of an interaction between him and a young boy began circulating online. The sporting icon attended the Daytona 500 on Sunday (15 February) to support Tyler Reddick as he secured his first win in the ‘Great American Race’. It’s considered the most prestigious event of the year on the NASCAR calendar and has been dubbed ‘the Super Bowl of stock car racing’. Speaking of his win, Reddick said: “[It’s] just incredible how it all played out. Just true Daytona madness. I’ve already lost my voice from screaming. I never thought I’d be Daytona 500 champion.” However, the team’s victory has now been somewhat overshadowed by online chatter unfolding about footage which shows Jordan interacting with Reddick’s eldest son. In the clip, the father-of-five can be seen standing behind six-year-old Beau as the celebrations ensued, and he appears to grasp at the back of his t-shirt multiple times. The footage, which has since gone viral, shows Jordan making repeated pinching motions, potentially trying to wring the t-shirt out as it looks wet. Jordan then appears to graze his fingers over the back of his legs, prompting Beau to turn around. There is no indication that Jordan committed any wrongdoing and the young boy does not appear to flinch. After the win, Reddick posted the following photo of Jordan with his hand on his son, which shows that Jordan appears to be an uncle-like figure to his son: There’s so much happening in this photo pic.twitter.com/6aFvrIdFNg — Tyler Reddick (@TylerReddick) February 16, 2026 Here’s Reddick and Jordan celebrating: DAYTONA 500 WINNERS LFG!! pic.twitter.com/adBHL2JGoT — Tyler Reddick (@TylerReddick) February 16, 2026 What’s your take? Is Jordan just being a silly uncle? or Is something deeper going on? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section.

Ever since Silver did it’s moonshot to $121 (from $15), you all have been FLOODING my Inbox asking me to have Bo Polny back on the show. Well, your wish is my command!

Truly reaching world-wide! And for good reason….because Bo has been coming on my show for the last 4+ years telling you it might be smart to buy some Gold and Silver, back when Silver was $15-20. A lot of people laughed and mocked and scoffed and told us we were crazy….and then?  And then Silver shot up to $121 and the rest is history! Actually, that’s not quite true…. Bo says the story isn’t over yet and we have much more excitement to come! A “volcanic eruption” both literally (as a marker) and then in Gold and Silver.

And one can get you gold for no money out of pocket! How do you like that? BOOM! First, you may recognize Andy Schectman from Miles Franklin. He’s prolific on YouTube and just a brilliant guy, I’ve followed him for years. I’ve partnered up with Andy’s company, Miles Franklin, and I’m really excited to show you what they can do! In fact, Andy’s going to be coming on my show, the Daily Truth Report (follow us on YouTube and Rumble) in the future, and you’re going to want to make sure you don’t miss those. Andy is a wealth of knowledge about the precious metals markets and crypto, and I’ve covered him here many times in the past. Now I’ll get to chat with him myself, and I’m really looking forward to it. I’m spoken directly with Andy and his team and they have assured me they will take very good care of anyone in the WLT Report family (that’s you!). At Miles Franklin, everyone gets personal attention from their team of brokers and you’ll get whatever level of hand-holding you prefer.  They’ll also customize a deal just for you, but you have to call them and tell them NOAH sent you!  They’ll handle it from there.  1-952-929-7006 There is no minimum order size and no maximum limit. I think you’ll love working with them, I already do! You can reach them at 1-952-929-7006 and make sure you let them know that Noah sent you over, they’ve promised me the best of the best service and pricing for everyone in the WLT Report family.  Second option is a company I’ve talked about many times before, it’s Genesis Gold. I’ve worked with Genesis Gold for three years now, and they are excellent at what they do. Genesis Gold is for people who want to purchase real physical gold or silver in their IRAs (Investment Retirement Accounts). You know what the beauty of that is? Two huge benefits actually… One is that it’s TAX FREE baby! I’m not a tax advisor, but that’s a general oversimplification. Never pay more taxes than you are legally required to pay. And that’s why I love getting gold and silver in my IRA (and why I hold a large chunk in an IRA myself!). The other is if you simply shift money out of stocks (like Peter Schiff recommends) and into Gold, it won’t cost you anything!  No money out of pocket!   BOOM! There’s so much to love about Genesis Gold, starting with the fact they are proudly and un-ashamedly Christina! They call it “Faith-Driven Stewardship” and they put it right on the homepage of their website along with a quote from Ezekiel: Wealth Preservation With Gold & Silver – The Genesis Gold IRA By your wisdom and your understanding you have made wealth for yourself, and have gathered Gold and Silver into your treasuries – EZEKIEL 28:4 Genesis Gold Group believes the Bible gives clues on how man-made currencies (paper money) represent instability, and a lack of virtue and encourages living wastefully in excess. Conflicts have beleaguered us since the dawn of civilization, and they can all be encapsulated into one battle. The battle is between currency, man-made paper, and gold and silver — the two precious metals found in our Earth’s crust, sent to us by our Lord to use as money. Man-made currency always leads nations down the path to increased war, greed, and ultimate collapse. History has shown that abandoning gold and silver has always been a bad idea. Gold and Silver enforce discipline, nurture self-constraint, self-reliance, and balance, and lead to confidence, a restrained government, and a more stable foreign policy. Genesis Gold Group believes in empowering faith-driven stewardship with Gold & Silver are an integral part of a balanced portfolio. Protecting your finances with precious metals has never been more crucial during these trying times. With a combined 50-plus years in the precious metals industry, let your Genesis gold and silver experts guide you through the simplicity of asset protection and growth with our Genesis Gold IRA. Sincerely, Genesis Gold Group Empowering Faith-Driven Stewardship Oh….and they’re VERY good at what they do. You also get physical gold and silver with Genesis, believe it or not!  The gold and silver is purchased for you (in whatever combination of coins and bars you prefer, a picture taken and sent to you, and then stored safely in a vault for you! I love what these guys are doing. Here’s more on why gold and silver in your IRA are so powerful: You can contact Genesis Gold here. They are also very backed up with record demand, so you may have to wait a bit, but someone WILL get in touch with you for personal customer service and assistance! Tell ’em Noah sent ya! Oh, and did you know Genesis is recommended by SUPERMAN himself? It’s true. Superman himself, Clark Kent — Dean Cain — came on my show a few weeks ago and we broke it all down: Watch here: Stay safe!

A GOP county chairman in Utah was arrested for allegedly “waterboarding” his teenage daughter after becoming angry over the cleanliness of her bedroom. “County prosecutors have charged 54-year-old David Nephi Johnson with a first-degree felony count of aggravated child abuse for the alleged incident in early January,” The Salt Lake Tribune reports. Johnson is the Wasatch County GOP chairman. The 54-year-old made his initial court appearance on Thursday and was released from jail after posting bail. Wasatch County GOP Chair David Nephi Johnson, accused of waterboarding a 16-year-old relative, has been arrested on charges of felony child abuse. https://t.co/SnI2bTxTnJ — The Salt Lake Tribune (@sltrib) February 11, 2026 More from The Salt Lake Tribune: Johnson was elected chairman of the Wasatch County Republican Party in May 2025. As of Wednesday, the county party had removed his photograph from its website. According to the report, Johnson’s relative told a DCFS investigator they were taken into a bathroom and had their head pushed into a sink of running water. The relative says Johnson repeatedly dunked their head under the open tap and felt they “couldn’t breathe for about 20 to 30 seconds.” It also says the teen described two other incidents in which Johnson used his backhand to strike their torso causing bruising that lasted about a week and left a “big red mark where his hand was.” According to WKRC, a police affidavit said Johnson became angry about the condition of her bedroom and required it to be “spotless.” “Heber City Police Department has arrested a local man following an investigation into allegations of aggravated child abuse involving a juvenile,” the Heber City Police Department said in a release. “Detectives with the Heber City Police Department initiated an investigation after receiving information alleging that a father had subjected his 16-year-old daughter to waterboarding as a form of punishment. During the course of the investigation, detectives also learned that the juvenile had been backhanded on the torso, resulting in visible bruising,” the release continued. “Through interviews and a thorough investigation, detectives determined that aggravated child abuse had occurred. As a result, David Johnson was arrested on February 10, 2026, and booked into the Wasatch Count jail on charges of Aggravated Child Abuse,” it added. WKRC shared further: The affidavit also references additional alleged incidents involving siblings, including a similar incident involving a younger brother. In a statement posted on social media, the Wasatch County GOP said it was “deeply concerned and troubled” by the allegations. The party said it held an emergency meeting and appointed its vice chair as acting leader. “The Republican Party stands for the protection of the vulnerable and the upholding of the law,” the statement said. “We encourage the community to refrain from judgment until the facts and evidence have been presented.” Watch additional coverage below:

A men’s college basketball contest between the University of Georgia and the University of Oklahoma was delayed minutes into the game because a popcorn machine at the concession stand caught fire. The chaotic incident occurred during a media timeout in the first half, sending spectators scrambling for safety. The fire spread smoke inside Oklahoma’s Lloyd Noble Center. The game was delayed for approximately five minutes.

Apparently, some liberals now believe that allowing your child to attend a conservative event counts as child abuse. A nosy Karen in Calvert County, Maryland attended a community meeting to speak out about how concerned she was that Turning Point USA held a gathering for high school students in her town. She was so worried, in fact, that she admitted to calling Child Protective Services simply because students were attending the event. Watch this: SHOCKING: A woman in Calvert County, Maryland reportedly contacted Child Protective Services after students started a Turning Point USA high school chapter. TPUSA Club America chapters are student-led groups. For crying out loud, political disagreement is not child abuse. This… pic.twitter.com/Bit5Lqze38 — Moms for Liberty (@Moms4Liberty) February 14, 2026 SHOCKING: A woman in Calvert County, Maryland reportedly contacted Child Protective Services after students started a Turning Point USA high school chapter. TPUSA Club America chapters are student-led groups. For crying out loud, political disagreement is not child abuse. This is not about “protecting kids.” It’s about silencing opinions she doesn’t like. For those who prefer to read, here’s a transcript of what this crazy lady had to say: In December of 2025, Turning Point USA hosted an event marketed to high school students with food and beverages advertised as an incentive for attendance. While community building opportunities for students are important, this event raises serious concerns related to student safety, parental rights and governance oversight. Adults and legal guardians were not permitted to attend the event. Excluding parents and guardians from a student-focused event creates a lack of transparency and undermines established best practices for youth safety. I’m also concerned about a potential conflict of interest involving board of education members who served as guests and spoke at this event. Students are widely recognized as a vulnerable population, they are in critical developmental stages, and especially susceptible to influence. All Board of Education members in this room are mandated reporters under state law, as I am. Based on the circumstances surrounding this event, a report was made to Child Protective Services. By the way, this woman’s name is Nancy Krause. She works at a Marine Museum. BREAKING – A liberal woman in Maryland, Nancy Krause, is facing mass calls to be charged after she weaponized CPS against Calvert County high school students for starting a TPUSA chapter at their school. Here’s the county sheriff’s non-emergency line and her job’s number. pic.twitter.com/T8CyhUmBPl — Right Angle News Network (@Rightanglenews) February 15, 2026 This is a new level of derangement, and one that should concern parents nationwide. These people now want to take your kids if you raise them conservative. Rightfully so, Nancy Krause is sparking a lot of outrage online. Take a look at these responses: This lady called CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES over kids organizing @TPUSA meetings at their high school. Think about that. People like this literally want your kids taken away by the state if they think you’re passing on conservative values. Reports like this should be criminal. https://t.co/2rCrbum9tP — Robby Starbuck (@robbystarbuck) February 14, 2026 Every family that CPS contacted because of this should sue her into the ground. https://t.co/wkT5nu2LcU — Tim Young (@TimRunsHisMouth) February 14, 2026 Since a false report to Maryland CPS is not a criminal offense unless the police get involved, TPUSA can and should sue for defamation or related torts if they can show malice or lack of good faith. Maybe they won’t, but they should. — Trebor (@TreborJoss) February 14, 2026 I have to wonder if she’s okay with schools staging anti-ICE walkout protests — many of which are putting kids in danger and happening without requiring parental consent.
