Video After The Jump

A Donald Trump supporter who recorded a bizarre YouTube video saying he had "an important matter" to discuss with the Republican presidential nominee, was caught on the 21st floor of Trump Tower, Wednesday, August 10, as he scaled up the side of the 58-floor building in New York City.

"I'm an independent researcher seeking private audience with you to discuss an important matter," Stephen Rogata says in the YouTube video, which was uploaded Tuesday, August 9. "I guarantee that it is in your interest to honor this request. Believe me, if my purpose was not significant I would not risk my life pursuing it. The reason I climbed your tower was to get your attention. If I had sought this via conventional means, I would be much less likely to have success, because you are a busy man with many responsibilities."

“We were in the public garden at Trump Tower when all of a sudden the guy took off his basketball shorts and sprinted down the side of the building on the ledge,” witness Blake Crowson told the New York Daily News “We thought he was BASE jumping. He had two duffel bags that looked like they had climbing ropes.”

Rogata, who is believed to be from Virginia, is now in police custody.

During a rally in Wilmington, North Carolina on Tuesday, August 9, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said Second Amendment supporters may be able to figure out a way to stop Hillary Clinton from picking federal judges as president.

"Hillary wants to essentially abolish the Second Amendment," Trump said. "By the way, if she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is -- I don't know. But I'll tell you what: that will be a horrible day."

Many people interpreted Trump's statement as a call for violence against Clinton.

Tyga failed to show up in court Tuesday, August 9, for a hearing with attorneys for his former landlord. Now a judge has issued a warrant for his arrest.

According to TMZ, the landlord claims the 26-year old rapper, born Michael Stevenson, left the Malibu home he was renting in a state of disarray and was way behind in monthly payments when he bailed.

The landlord, who had been granted a $480,000 judgement against Tyga, wanted him to explain how he was able to buy his girlfriend, Kylie Jenner, a $200,000 Maybach for her 19th birthday last week, while failing to pay any of what he owes.

Attorneys for the landlord argued that the car purchase was "a fraudulent transfer of assets" that should have gone towards satisfying the judgment.

The judge in the case issued a bench warrant for the "Rack City" hit maker, which could land him in jail if the cops catch up with him.

IIyasah Shabazz sat down with VladTV to discuss her late father Malcolm X's life. Malcolm X played a tremendous role in the civil rights movement before being assassinated on [Febuary 21, 1965]. In the interview, Shabazz talks with us about the multiple attempts on her father's life, him being followed by the CIA, and how he sacrificed life for what he believed in.

We asked Shabazz about the three attempts on her father's that her mother mentioned in a previous interview, and she explained, "The attempts wasn't because of something going on within the nation... He wasn't being followed by the nation of Islam..it doesn't matter who pulled the trigger, what matters is who organized this assassination, unfortunately." Malcolm X's assassination happened in front of her mother, her siblings, and Shabazz. Although she was young, Shabazz explained that of her family seeing her father slain had an extreme effect on all of them, "My older sisters, Attalah, and Quibilah both remember very clearly, and very vividly seeing their father being killed... I also say the noise for anyone; a baby has to have some sort of effect.."

IIyasah continued the conversation by talking about her father's legacy, the nation of Islam's involvement in her father's death, and how much he cared for what he believed in. Check out the full clip below
