FULL SHOW | Pardoned Rioter in Court for Threats Against Rep. Hakeem Jeffries; Pastor Marvin Winans Under Scrutiny for Scolding Churchgoer; Nia Long and Lorenz Tate Reuniting for Romantic Comedy; and MORE

In today’s episode of The Rickey Smiley Morning Show , the first story zeroes in on the unsettling news that a man pardoned for his role in the January 6 United States Capitol attack was arrested after allegedly threatening to kill House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. Authorities say the text messages were explicit and showed intent, raising new concerns about the effects of mass pardons and political-violence risk in the U.S. legislative sphere. Next up, controversial pastor Marvin Winans came under fire after a livestream showed him chastising a church member for donating less than what he asked for. While both parties later clarified the interaction, the video has ignited debates on giving culture, public shaming in houses of worship, and leadership accountability. Finally, fans of 90s romance have reason to rejoice: actors Nia Long and Larenz Tate — beloved for their roles in Love Jones — are reuniting for a brand-new Netflix romantic drama inspired by Maxwell’s Urban Hang Suite, marking a major return to form for the iconic duo.
