This is the type of honesty and assertiveness the globalists hate, but the people love. He examined the problem and took care of it. Most presidents wouldn’t want to hurt their feelings or upset them. They become their dupes.

“The View” host Joy Behar denigrated former President Donald Trump’s supporters during Thursday’s broadcast on ABC News, claiming that they were just like drug addicts or alcoholics who cared more about feeding their addiction than about what happened to the people around them. Behar and her cohosts, who happily joined in the pile-on once she made the initial comparison, continued to describe how supporting Trump, like having an addiction, was bad for both the addicts and for the people around them.

An addiction trumps everything.” The other cohosts started talking all at the same time, but Behar continued. “Even relationships, which is why if you’re in a relationship with a drug addict or a gambler or an alcoholic, you’ll never have a chance,” she said.

Actress Cynthia Erivo is not happy that fans decided to alter and circulate a movie poster for her upcoming film, “Wicked.” The highly anticipated adaptation of the Broadway musical features a very similar looking poster to the original, which depicts Glinda (Ariana Grande) whispering into the ear of Elphaba (Erivo). The Broadway version shows Elphaba’s witch hat tipped down and hiding her eyes while the movie version gives a clear image of the star’s whole face. “Wicked” fans headed to social media to circulate an updated version of the movie poster that more closely resembles the Broadway version. That meant Erivo’s eyes were hidden and she was sporting red lipstick. The actress hit back on Instagram, saying the changes were “offensive” to her as a human being. Cynthia Erivo has reacted to viral edits of the ‘WICKED’ poster: “This is the wildest, most offensive thing I have seen, equal to that awful AI of us fighting… Our poster is an homage not an imitation, to edit my face & hide my eyes is to erase me. That is just deeply hurtful” pic.twitter.com/y3P1Qh379S — DiscussingFilm (@DiscussingFilm) October 16, 2024 “This is the wildest, most offensive thing I have seen equal to that awful AI of us fighting, equal to people posing the the question ‘is your ***** green?” Erivo shared to her Instagram stories alongside an image of the offending Photoshopped poster, per Variety. “None of this is funny. None of it is cute. It degrades me. It degrades us.” “The original poster is an Illustration,” she continued. “I am a real life human being, who chose to to look right down the barrel of the camera to you, the viewer …because, without words we communicate with our eyes. Our poster is an homage not an imitation, to edit my face and hide my eyes is to erase me. And that is just deeply hurtful.” MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ COMING TO DAILYWIRE+ OCT. 28 Erivo referenced her disgust over an AI-generated video of the two main characters getting into a fight. She also mentioned the “is your p**** green” memes that have been going around since the film was announced, the outlet noted. “Wicked” is being released in two parts, with the first installment hitting theaters on November 22. The Broadway musical is based on the book “Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West,” which was inspired by L. Frank Baum’s novel “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.”  The musical “Wicked” is told from the perspective of the two witches, Elphaba and Glinda, before and after Dorothy’s arrival in Oz. The Broadway show has won numerous awards and broken records, plus raked in more than $1 billion in total revenue over its more than two-decades-long run.

The Republican National Committee sued Detroit on Tuesday, accusing city election officials of violating Michigan law by deleting surveillance footage of an absentee ballot drop box. Michigan resident Jonathan Koch, whose request for footage monitoring a ballot drop box in the city was denied by officials last month, filed the suit alongside the RNC. Koch and the RNC allege that Detroit’s Department of Elections violated Michigan Freedom of Information Act laws by getting rid of the footage. The suit argues that Detroit got rid of the requested footage even as there was an active request out for it that was filed before state law allows the footage to be purged. “Deleting drop box surveillance footage while there is a pending FOIA request for it is an assault on transparency,” said RNC chair Michael Whatley. “This breach of trust is exactly what reduces confidence in our elections. We will hold Detroit accountable, as this secrecy has no place in a fair and secure election — Michiganders deserve far better.” On August 20, Koch requested footage monitoring a drop box at Wayne County Community College from August 7 and August 8 during Michigan’s primary election. By September 16, Koch was informed by Detroit election officials that they no longer had the footage because they don’t keep footage after 30 days. In the denial letter from the city of Detroit, Koch was told by an official that he “was informed that video is no longer available after 30 days and is recorded over.” However, state law mandated that the footage be kept until September 6, which was well after Koch filed his request on August 20. The request also asked for all records on construction and installation of the drop box. MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ COMING TO DAILYWIRE+ OCT. 28 The RNC argued that Detroit had a “clear legal duty to retain video surveillance of absent vote ballot drop boxes after receiving a timely FOIA request for such public records.” “Specifically, the response indicated that the video surveillance records were recorded over after thirty (30) days, despite Koch’s request having been received fourteen (14) days after the record was created and sixteen (16) days before the record could be deleted,” the suit added. For resolution, the RNC asked for a judge to order Detroit to adhere to its footage retention policies going forward and declare that the city had violated Michigan public records law.
