Hulk Hogan won’t rule out future in politics: ‘I’ll rule with an iron fist’

(The Hill) – Wrestling legend Hulk Hogan said he’d be willing to step into the political ring if necessary, when asked during a Fox News interview Friday.
“We need somebody in there that’s got some common sense, you know what I’m saying? So if you need a president or a vice president, I’ll volunteer and take this country over, and I’ll rule with an iron fist,” the 70-year-old celebrity, otherwise known as Terry Gene Bollea, told the hosts of “Fox & Friends.”
The WWE Hall of Famer added his top policy positions would include “a flat tax and nothing but common sense.”
“I know right from wrong, brother!” Hogan added.
Hogan said in 2018 that he mulled a Florida Senate run, and that people had often urged him to run for office. He ultimately decided against the move.
Hogan’s remarks come following appearances on Fox News earlier this week to promote the launch of his Real American Beer.
“I had this crazy idea because I saw how competitive the beer industry was, and I saw what happened with Bud Light and their whole promotion that crashed and burned. I saw this crazy open lane,” Hogan said, referencing the fallout from the beer brand’s marketing partnership with transgender social media influencer Dylan Mulvaney last year.
Mulvaney posed with a personalized Bud Light can in a sponsored post online. It went viral and prompted some conservatives to launch a boycott of the brand. Bud Light ultimately lost its 20-year title as the nation’s top-selling beer brand.
Hogan’s Real American Beer cans feature an image of the wrestler waving an American flag. He said his goal is to “bring America back together, one beer at a time” — across party lines and other divides.

A Roving Seafood Pop-Up Drops Anchor in Pacific Beach
A new restaurant and seafood market operated and stocked by local fishermen has docked just steps from the sand in Pacific Beach. Nico’s Fish Market is the permanent location of a roving outfit that’s been popping up around town since 2022, including regular weekend residencies at Oceanside’s South O Brewing and the Shanty in Cardiff.
The Emerald Street space is the fruition of a dream that founder Nico Gibbons has held since he was a teenager. At 18, the San Diego native started as a bus boy at El Pescador Fish Market, working at the 50-year-old La Jolla institution even while attending college at UCLA and eventually becoming a fishmonger. Through family connections, Gibbons spent several months living in Mexico City, training in the kitchen with chef Federico Rigoletti (Contramar) while spending nights cutting fish in the city’s main seafood market. After returning to San Diego, he learned the wholesale side of the business at Hawaiian Fresh Seafood, where he graded tuna for the poke experts.
Photos of the local fishermen who fuel the market and restaurant, including Gibbons himself, are displayed next to the retail seafood counter, where sashimi plates and containers of poke sit on ice next to filets of fresh fish, from bluefin tuna to local halibut and swordfish.
Gibbons, who lives in Pacific Beach, worked with the owner of a neighborhood taco shop he used to frequent to take over its lease with help from Dino De Salvio of Next Wave Commercial.
The menu includes poke bowls plus tacos, burritos, sandwiches, and plates featuring the day’s fresh catch always cut to order. Gibbons tells Eater that they’ll also be running specials featuring seasonal local seafood and are working to secure a beer and wine license.
