Big and Rich's John Rich will be sworn in at the White House today (7/10) as special envoy for American landowners at the U.S. Department of Agriculture. According to the USDA, he will work with farmers, ranchers and private property owners when it comes to their land rights, especially in connection with large-scale solar and wind energy development. Rich said President Trump has given him the opportunity to stand up for these land owners to make sure they aren't harassed, intimidated, or pressured by outside interests. Rich won the 2011 season of Trump's The Celebrity Apprentice raising over 1.5 million dollars for St. Jude Childrens' Research Hospital.

Jordan Davis was recently detained by Border Patrol in Canada. Davis was re-entering the United States from Canada after his June 27th concert in Windsor, Ontario, when the incident happened.  After a lengthy questioning by border patrol officers, the singer-songwriter discovered there was someone in Indiana with his name who is in legal trouble.  Davis said some of the officers recognized who he was and he was eventually let go.  One of his crew recorded his reaction when he finally got back on the tour bus; check out the post below.
