Sarah Michelle Gellar Remembers ’Buffy’ Co-Star Nichlas Brendon

 

As Buffy fans mourn the loss of Nicholas Alexander, Sarah Michelle Gellar has paid tribute to her fellow “Scooby gang” alum.

Following the actor’s death at age 54, the Golden Globe-nominated star of Buffy the Vampire Slayer reacted to the news with one of Xander’s memorable lines from the WB series.

“‘They’ll never know how tough it is to be the one who isn’t chosen. To live so near to the spotlight, and never step in it. But I know. I see more than anybody realizes, because nobody’s watching me,’” wrote Gellar on Instagram. “I saw you Nicky. I know you are at peace, in that big rocking chair in the sky.”

2 former FBI agents say they were fired over their roles in Trump 2020 election probe

Two agents fired from the FBI last year said in a federal lawsuit Thursday that they were terminated ”solely” because of their participation in an investigation into President Donald Trump’s effort to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

The two agents, identified as John Doe 1 and John Doe 2 in the lawsuit, are part of a broader group of employees fired over the past year for their role in the election investigation known as Arctic Frost. Their lawsuit is the latest in a series of court challenges to a personnel purge under FBI Director Kash Patel that has targeted agents who either contributed to investigations of the Republican president or were perceived as out of step with the administration’s agenda.
