Actor and director Rob Reiner spurred another hearty round of “Meathead” rebuttals on Twitter. But this time, it isn’t one of his furious proclamations that Trumpers are a “cult.” Instead, Reiner sounded like he was in a cult. He tweeted on Friday that President Biden’s “record of accomplishments so far” is unmatched in modern history.

Good riddance to celebrity hypocrite Samantha Bee – Crying ‘racist!’ while opposing integration of her children’s school
At one point, Samantha Bee was hailed as Jon Stewart’s heir at The Daily Show — and quite honestly she probably should have gotten that job. Instead she ended up bolting Comedy Central for TBS, where she injected her sardonic brand of faux journalism into a format largely dominated by men. But just as with all late-night “comedy” shows, the Trump years turned her and her fellow hosts into progressive scolds and their audiences into clapping seals.
The Post-Prime of Miss Janeane Garofalo
I suspect that there were more than a few youngish New York Times readers who, on July 14, were baffled to turn a page and encounter a 2,500-word think piece about Janeane Garofalo.
Jane who? Perhaps you’re too young to recognize her name, too. But if you’ve seen Seinfeld reruns, you may remember her from an episode in which she played a woman whom Jerry dates because, like him, she eats plenty of breakfast cereal, reads comic books about superheroes, and is dry and sardonic. But he comes to dislike her, and the relationship ends with them exclaiming, simultaneously at a dinner table, “I hate you!”
Celebrities’ Wildest Reactions to SCOTUS Rejection of Roe v. Wade
When the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade it wasn’t just lefty reporters who became apoplectic, the Hollywood elite were enraged too. Actors immediately flew to Twitter to unleash their (in some cases) profanity-laced attacks on the conservative Justices.
Of course, the late night talk show hosts also lectured their viewers. Pop singers like Olivia Rodrigo and sports figures like Megan Rapinoe also got into the act.
The 20 Dumbest Hollywood Hatemongers, Part II
Celebrities unhinged.
When Donald Trump stunned the Hollywood Left by denying Hillary Clinton a White House win in 2016, he triggered a tsunami of celebrity bile. For the next four years and after, Hollywood elitists vented their online rage at Trump, at the 63 million Americans who voted for him in 2016, and the 74 million who voted for him in 2020, smearing them as “white supremacists,” “deplorables,” and “domestic terrorists.”
Hollywood Celebrities Capitalize on Texas School Shooting: ‘F**k the GOP and Their Obsession with Guns‘
Hollywood celebrities wasted little time capitalizing on the school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, on Tuesday, urging voters and lawmakers to support more gun control while also blaming the shooting on Republicans and other supporters of Second Amendment rights.
Celebrities including Alyssa Milano, Rob Reiner, Elizabeth Banks, Bette Midler, Piper Perabo, and Stephen King all took advantage of the incident as a way to push familiar Democratic refrains.
The 20 Dumbest Hollywood Hatemongers
Celebrities unhinged.
On March 27, 2022, during a live television broadcast of the 94th Academy Awards, popular actor Will Smith hijacked the ceremony by storming onstage to slap comedian Chris Rock for a tame joke about Smith’s actress wife, Jada Pinkett. Then Smith returned to his seat and, in an epic explosion of Hollywood narcissism, spewed profane threats at Rock, which were broadcast around the world, sucking all the air out of an event designed to showcase the achievements of his fellow artists. Some speculated that Smith’s meltdown stemmed not from a chivalrous defense of his wife’s honor, but from the pent-up humiliation of being wedded to a woman who publicly insisted on having an “open marriage.”
Maher Faces Blowback From Usual Wankers For Questioning Chemical ‘Experimentation’ On Children In Puberty
“Real Time” host and comedian Bill Maher faced condemnation from Hollywood, journalists, and a Democratic strategist on social media after making comments questioning transgender children “experimenting” with hormone blockers.
Ghoulish Whoopi: ‘It Doesn’t Matter’ When the Unborn Have Rights, ‘I Don’t Care’
From the pro-life side, the entire issue of abortion is about “when does an unborn child get their rights as a human being?” And on Thursday’s edition of The View, Whoopi Goldberg proved that the anti-life side of the debate not only refuses to engage in that part of the question, but flat-out doesn’t care what the factual answer is.
Actress Rosanna Arquette: ‘Satanic’ SCOTUS Seeking to ‘Traffic Babies’
Republicans will “traffic babies” for financial gain in the event the Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade, according to left-wing Hollywood actress Rosanna Arquette, who deemed conservative Supreme Court justices in favor of overturning the landmark abortion case a “satanic force.”
Amy Schumer ‘triggered and traumatised’ by Will Smith Oscars slap incident
Two days on from Will Smith slapping presenter Chris Rock at the 94th Academy Awards, following a joke about his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, and Hollywood appears united in feeling Smith deserves substantial reprimand for his actions.
One of the three hosts for this year’s ceremony, Amy Schumer, has said she is still “triggered and traumatised” by the incident, and “waiting for this sickening feeling to go away from what we all witnessed”.
Will Smith Has Deeper Issues Than Not Being Able to Take a Joke, and It All Starts With Jada
… Will’s violent outburst at the Oscars wasn’t because of that stupid G.I. Jane joke that Chris Rock told. This is a man whose existence is synonymous with being publicly humiliated by his wife over and over again. Last night was no exception. Jada’s anger prompted Will to act in an outrageous way, leading to more humiliation.
Tirades by Twits
Closing in on half a century of political rants at the Oscars.
It all goes back to the 1970s, as do so many of the worst features of contemporary American society and culture. At the 1974 Oscar ceremony, Roger Moore and Liv Ullmann stepped onstage to present the Best Actor award. For some reason, Ullmann decided to quote her frequent collaborator Ingmar Bergman: “Often to be most eloquent is to be silent.” This aperçu didn’t seem particularly relevant at the moment, but about five minutes later it would seem the very deepest wisdom.
Whoopi demands royal family apologize for colonial past weeks after saying Holocaust wasn’t racist
Fresh off her suspension from “The View” for saying “the Holocaust wasn’t racist,” Whoopi Goldberg is making headlines once again.
The 66-year-old actress, known for her roles in the movies “Sister Act” and “Ghost,” is no stranger to making controversial statements. It was just last month that “The View” suspended her from the program for her widely panned comments claiming the Holocaust wasn’t about race.
