Donald Trump says it's "disgraceful" that a former Indianapolis Colts linebacker Edwin Jackson was killed by a man who was in the United States illegally ... and is calling for democrats to get tough on the border.

As we previously reported, 26-year-old Jackson was hit by a pickup truck early Sunday morning while he was standing on the shoulder of a highway in Indiana.

Officials believe the man driving the truck is 37-year-old Manuel Orrego-Savala -- a Guatemalan citizen who had been living in the U.S. illegally. Officials believe Orrego-Savala was drunk at the time of the crash and tried to flee the scene.

Once apprehended, officials say Orrego-Savala had been previously deported twice before -- once in 2007 and again in 2009 -- yet somehow made it back and had been living in Indiana.

Now, Trump is weighing in ... saying, "So disgraceful that a person illegally in our country killed @Colts linebacker Edwin Jackson."

"This is just one of many such preventable tragedies. We must get the Dems to get tough on the Border, and with illegal immigration, FAST!"

"My prayers and best wishes are with the family of Edwin Jackson, a wonderful young man whose life was so senselessly taken. @Colts."

Mark Salling's child pornography case will come to an abrupt halt after his suicide, because prosecutors just filed legal docs asking the judge to dismiss the case.

The documents are short and to the point ... they are asking the federal judge who was hearing the case to dismiss the indictment.

TMZ broke the story ... Salling hanged himself last week as he faced the prospect of years in prison. He had struck a plea deal with prosecutors, but it hadn't been ratified by the judge.

One interesting point ... prosecutors want the indictment dismissed "without prejudice" ... meaning they could theoretically refile. That, however, will not happen. Once a defendant dies, the case is over.

He's a Pennsylvania boy through and through ... but Carson Kressley says if push comes to shove, he'd rather bang Tom Brady over Nick Foles.

Yeah, turns out Brady is still very attractive ...

The good news for Foles -- Kressley says he's still "just a little baby QB" and has room to blossom -- where Brady "is like a wolf."

Gay Fun Fact: A "wolf" is generally a semi-hairy, muscular man with a lean build. Typically, wolves are older men ... according to GayPopBuzz.com.

Spencer Pratt clearly hasn't given up on his crystal craze -- or having more babies -- because he hasn't let up in either department.

We got the 'Hills' star Monday in Times Square and asked for an update on how fatherhood was treating him, four months after Heidi Montag popped out their first child, Gunner. He tells us it's been nothing but getting vomited and pissed on ... so far, so good it seems.

Spencer insinuates Heidi may be pregnant again ... in the very, very early stages.

Dwayne Johnson just doesn't have the numbers to pull off the big stunt in his upcoming blockbuster -- and it all adds up to him falling to his death ... according to the Internet.

Chill, he didn't really fall. It just looks like it on the poster, and in the trailer, for "Skyscraper" ... which Dwayne debuted during the Super Bowl. The movie's marquee stunt shows him running and jumping from a crane to the burning tower -- but doesn't take Einstein to figure out DJ ain't gonna make it.

Hollywood frequently requires suspending reality, but this one looks so bad it's trending, and not only with math geeks.

But math geeks ARE having a ball. Dude's gonna need a bigger crane, or it's ... y'know. #RIPRock

Rob Gronkowski's Boston-area home was hit by burglars -- and it seems it was targeted while Gronk was playing in the Super Bowl.

The Foxborough PD confirmed cops are conducting a "routine property investigation" after the New England Patriots star returned home from his Minnesota trip to find his house had been hit.

Cops tell TMZ Sports they received the call from Gronk himself around 6:18 PM on Monday evening.

There are reports the burglars stole some safes from the home and GUNS may have been taken. But cops will not confirm that.

We're told no one was home during the burglary and cops are taking inventory as to what was stolen.

"Out of respect for the homeowner's privacy and because this remains a very active and dynamic criminal investigation, the police are not releasing any information about items stolen or possible suspects as this case moves forward," the FPD wrote in a statement.

"We will have no further comment on the case until the case is solved."

Shawn Mendes played his first Bat Mitzvah Saturday ... the crowd may have been a bit smaller than he's used to, but the price tag certainly wasn't.

Shawn serenaded 275 13-year-olds at an insane bash, honoring the daughter of J. Darius Bikoff -- the guy who created Vitaminwater and Smartwater.

We're told the party cost between $5-7 million. Grandmaster Flash DJ'ed and the Bikoffs also had 40-50 horse carriages waiting to escort the guests from the temple to the party, which was at the ultra-swanky Plaza Hotel.

Steve Aoki says there's gross gender inequality in the DJ'ing world ... but he's not sure how to solve the problem.

We got the cake-throwing disc jockey Monday in Bev Hills and asked if other women -- besides Paris Hilton -- were getting a fair shot on the turntables, and Steve tells us straight-up ... they're not.

Our camera guy presses Steve on what can be done to obtain equality in the DJ world, but all he can muster in the moment is a hypothetical mandate for promoters.

He also doesn't sound too worried by the massive plunge on the stock market Monday ... just hold on, he says.

'NSYNC was a no-go during Justin Timberlake's Super Bowl Halftime Show, but the guys will be getting back together soon, according to Lance Bass.

We got Lance leaving Craig's Monday night with husband Michael Turchin where he confirmed the boy band would reunite for their Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony. Rumors they'd be getting a star on the Walk of Fame surfaced last year, so it appears it's really happening ... no word yet if they'll perform.

Nick Jonas has been benched from the bench, because he hurt himself bad during a late night workout.

Nick had just performed in Mexico Monday night, and after the concert he hit the gym, which for him is like religion. Something bad happened, because he posted this pic showing a bandaged left hand.

He doesn't say what happened, but it has clearly sidelined him. When you time out the concert, it seems he hit the gym sometime after midnight.

Lucky he was able to take comfort in a bottle of Coors Light.

Jordin Sparks buried her 16-year-old stepsister ... just one week after asking for prayers following complications from an illness.

The former "American Idol" winner posted this pic Monday showing her at her stepsister Bryanna Jackson-Frias' funeral ... who died last week from sickle cell anemia. The disease causes red blood cells to stick to vessel walls, which block blood flow.

Beyonce's success is about more than the color of her skin and even if she had darker skin, she'd still be Queen Bey to everyone, according to Utah's first black Congresswoman.

We got Utah Rep. Mia Love at Reagan National Airport in D.C. Monday and asked her about Mathew Knowles saying his daughter would not have been as successful and played on pop radio if she had darker skin.

NYPD detectives want to get their hands on footage of Desiigner's junk as part of the investigation into a potential exposure case ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell us NYPD is planning to subpoena footage from privately owned cameras that might be mounted on the block where Desiigner allegedly flashed a motorist last month.

We're told detectives want to review footage to see if Desiigner actually exposed himself, because it isn't clear in the only video that's surfaced to this point.

As we reported ... Desiigner allegedly exposed himself twice in the heat of an argument. A cop tried to intervene, but didn't witness the alleged flash.

Here's Louisiana Congressman Cedric Richmond going all "Hit 'Em Up" on Donald Trump -- slamming POTUS as a bitter old man who's "irrelevant" when it comes to the NFL.

The diss session started when we asked the Chairman of the Black Caucus if Trump should consider it a victory that no players took a knee during the national anthem at the Super Bowl.

That set Richmond OFF.

Richmond says Trump's "not wanted" when it comes to the NFL -- and claims DT's bitterness toward the players is born out of the fact he was never able to buy an NFL team of his own.

Burn.

Travis Barker's old flame is back on the market, and she can be yours ... for a cool $16,900.

The flame is his 2007 Honda CBR1000RR. The Blink-182 drummer sold it a few years ago, and now the guy who bought it from him is flipping the sweet green ride. The seller tells us the bike had a mere 12 miles on it, because Travis mainly used it to promote his clothing line, "Famous Stars & Straps."

It's been featured in more photo shoots since Travis sold it, and it's easy to see why.

The 4-cylinder is quite the looker with custom rims, whitewall Pirelli Diablo tires and its glossy, show-stopping green paint.
