The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect. Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.
This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.
Jim Carrey on Trump: "We have a president who started out when the country was together and we had a wonderful leader, and he is tearing us limb from limb. Destroying every institution. He's a used car salesman."
The image on the left is Adolf Hitler in 1937 in a propaganda release showing him as the Übermensch, or the 'super man'. On the right is Donald Trump as Superman officially posted by The White House. There is 88 years between the two, 88 (HH) means 'Heil Hitler'. Coincidence?🤔
The current President of the United States believes that when anything good happens it is solely because of him and if anything bad happens it has nothing to do with him. That's textbook insanity.
