After Robert De Niro Cursed President Trump On Stage, Actress Wonders About Reception If It’d Been Obama

During the 72nd Annual Tony Awards on Sunday night, Hollywood star Robert De Niro went out to the stage to present an award, but what happened then surprised most of us.

‘I’m going to say one thing: F**k Trump,’ De Niro stated on stage. ‘It’s no longer ‘down with Trump,’ it’s ‘f**k Trump.”

According to Fox News, in the U.S. the profanity De Niro used was censored, but it wasn’t on the foreign stations.

Actress Alana Stewart was one of the first that criticized her colleague Robert De Niro for his vulgar comment about Trump at the Tony Awards.

Robert De Niro’s speech was met with a standing ovation from the attendees, and Alana Stewart wondered what it would have been like if the same comment was made about former President Barack Obama.

‘Can you just imagine what would’ve happened if an actor had said ‘F…. Obama’ on the Tony Awards?’ she tweeted. ‘[…] So disrespectful to say about any sitting president.’

In the following tweet, Alana Stewart added that she was ‘sorry to see the hate-filled, bitter man that Robert De Niro has turned into.’

Actress Alana Stewart who is also the CEO of the Farrah Fawcett Foundation wrote in his tweet that De Niro came to her house on ‘several occasions’ a few years ago and ‘always seemed nice then.’

The actress acknowledged that everyone is ‘entitled to their opinion’ but added that ‘it’s offensive to many of us to hear that kind of language on live TV.’

Stewart also wondered where all that hate for President Trump is coming from, given what she sees as major accomplishments.

‘And I’m not sure what he’s doing so terrible since unemployment is lowest in 50 years [and] black and Hispanic unemployment lowest in history,’ Stewart tweeted.

Robert De Niro’s comment about President Donald Trump, which was censored on the live broadcast, was met with a standing ovation from theater-loving attendees, but others expressed their distaste for the display online.

Melania Silences All Media Speculation With Her First Public Appearance After Her Surgery

A few weeks ago, The WH released a statement to inform the public that First Lady Melania had kidney surgery at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Washington DC and would remain there for at least another week.

‘This morning, First Lady Melania Trump underwent an embolization procedure to treat a benign kidney condition. The procedure was successful and there were no complications. Mrs. Trump is at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center and will likely remain there for the duration of the week. The First Lady looks forward to a full recovery so she can continue her work on behalf of children everywhere.’ The communications director, Stephanie Grisham, said in a statement.

On Wednesday, our First Lady made her first public appearance outside the White House with her husband President Donald Trump, on her way to the Federal Emergency Management Agency headquarters in Washington.

The White House released pool report which reads:

‘Pool glimpsed POTUS and FLOTUS walking out of the White House and stepping into their car at 1:52 p.m. FLOTUS was wearing a long, beige trenchcoat and POTUS a dark suit.’

Another pool report described The First Lady as ‘looking well, like her old self, perfectly healthy from at least her outward appearance.’

First Lady Melania has been recovering from the kidney surgery she had in the middle of May at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

Melania underwent a surgery on a benign embolism. Luckily the surgery was completely successful.

In the past weeks, the media has speculated a lot about our First Lady’s whereabouts, floating conspiracy theories that Melania wasn’t at the WH or recovering from plastic surgery.

On Monday, President Donald Trump also attended the celebration for Gold Star families at the White House.

White House Aide Who Made Joke About McCain’s Health Condition Will Be Removed From The White House

CNN Kelly Sadler, the White House communications aide who made an inappropriate comment about Senator McCain’s health last month, left the White House where she served as a communications aide, sources with knowledge of the matter said on Tuesday.

It’s still unclear whether her removing from the WH was specifically tied to her comment about Sen. John Mccain, which triggered widespread backlash.

Senator John McCain, 81, was diagnosed in 2017 with glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer.

Neither the Sadler nor the White House issued a public apology of the remark, even after it attracted widespread condemnation. CNN Kelly Sadler privately called Sen. John McCain’s daughter, Meghan, to apologize.

CNN Kelly Sadler allegedly said the 2008 Republican presidential nominee, the six-term senator, and the ex-prisoner of war was immaterial because “he’s dying anyway.”

Sadler’s remark lingered as a story for days afterward when the WH focused on the leaking of internal discussions rather than the crudeness of her comment.

The daughter of Senator John McCain, Meghan Marguerite McCain, commented that Kelly Sadler should not only apologize to her father but should be out of a job.

‘I don’t understand what kind of environment you’re working in when that would be acceptable, and then you can come to work the next day and still have a job,’ Meghan McCain said from her seat on ABC’s ‘The View.’

‘I was promised an apology by Kelly Sadler, publicly, to my family,’ she added. ‘I did not receive that.’

The news about Kelly Sadler’s departure came right after Fox News learned that several WH communications staffers were informed that a major purge of their ranks was imminent.

According to Fox News, ‘Senior officials in the White House communications office also decided to cancel the large morning communications team meetings, attended by lower-ranking staffers, in an apparent effort to clamp down on leaks.’

‘I’m an Honest Person’ – Sarah Sanders Pushes Back On Reporters Questioning Her Credibility

This Thursday, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders repeatedly refused to answer some of the reporters’ questions about her credibility and whether her statements are accurate.

Josh Dawsey who’s the White House reporter for The Washington Post asked press secretary Sanders if a statement she made in August about the special counsel was accurate.

‘I know you want to get me into a back-and-forth with you on this conversation,’ Sanders answered.

The Washington Post White House correspondent Dawsey pushed back that he wasn’t after ‘a back-and-forth’ and said that he just wanted to know if her statement in August was accurate.

‘I work day in, day out, and I believe, frankly, with the majority of you here in the room — I think Y’all know I’m an honest person who works extremely hard to provide you with accurate information at all times,’ Sanders said.

Andrew Feinberg who is the White House Correspondent for Breakfast Media told Sarah that Trump is repeatedly making comments that are not accurate.

Feinberg wondered why reporters and all of the American citizens should trust the information coming from the White House if it’s been discovered to be untrue in the past.

‘I work every single day to give you accurate and up-to-date information, and I’m going to continue to do that,’ Sanders responded. ‘Frankly, I think my credibility’s probably higher than the media’s.’

Sarah Sanders said that she believes that it’s because of the media’s focus on attacking President Trump instead of reporting the news.

‘I think that if you spent a little bit more time reporting the news instead of trying to tear me down, you might actually see that we’re working hard trying to provide you good information,’ she added.

Pamela Brown, the White House Correspondent for CNN was the catalyst to reporters asking about statements press secretary Sarah Sanders has made in the past.

At the beginning of the press briefing, CNN’ Pamela Brown asked Sarah about the statement she made about the President dictating a statement about his son Donald Trump Jr.

‘Do you want to correct the record on your statement from August when you said he certainly didn’t dictate?’ she asked.

Sarah also said that she wouldn’t comment on the outside counsel and won’t’ get into a back-and-forth with Brown about it.

According to IJR Red, ‘The recurring push to have Sanders answer whether she feels she’s being honest comes the day after CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta called for reporters to ‘stick together’ if Sanders cuts someone off.’

‘We are grateful for the brave first responders, law enforcement officials, and medical personnel,’ the statement said. ‘The Texans family will continue to pray for our neighbors.’

The 17-year-old student Dimitrios Pagourtzis opened fire at the high school in Santa Fe, allegedly targeting everyone who has wronged him including one 16-year-old girl who before that rejected advances from him.

Pagourtzis planned to kill his peers and then himself, the authorities said. Two teachers and eight students were killed that day.

Marion County, FL, Deputy Jeremie Nix was heading home when he spotted a woman which needed help on side of the road.

According to WESH, Nechole Crowell told Nix that her three-month-old son Kingston stopped breathing and was in need of immediate help.

April Ryan Criticized Melania Trump: ‘This Is a First Lady Who Is Not Culturally American’

This Monday, First Lady Melania Trump announced the title of her mission to help the nation’s youth: ‘Be Best.’

After First Lady Melania revealed her new platform, CNN contributor April Ryan criticized her live on TV saying that she isn’t ‘culturally American.’

CNN host Erin Burnett said that Melania is facing a ‘painful reality’ in tackling the issue of cyber-bullying while President Trump has a reputation for heckling people on his personal Twitter account.

‘She’s well aware of his cyberbullying. He’s considered by some, well many I would say in different sectors, one of the biggest bullies. He will call you out in a moment’s notice and she stood in front of him and basically said she wants to show young people how it’s done and do it right and they will pick up those habits.’ April Ryan told Erin Burnett.

Despite the fact that our current First Lady Melania Trump is an American citizen for over a decade, she continued and told Burnett that Melania will face further issues with her initiative because she isn’t ‘culturally American.’

‘This is a first lady who is not culturally American, but she is learning the ways.’ Ryan said.

‘This is not just an American issue. These are not just American issues. These are international issues. Cyberbullying is an international issue. Social media is international and also the opioid addiction issue, so it’s not just here,’ she added.

To remind the people who always have something bad to say about her, Melania Trump is a native of Slovenia and speaks six languages: French, English, Slovenian, Italian, German, Serbian.

Mrs. Trump is a First Lady who is full of dignity, grace, and class – a more than worthy successor to her predecessors. She’s a role model for the young ladies in the U.S.

Melania Trump Gets Mocked On Social Media For Her ‘Broken’ English After She Launches Anti-Bullying Campaign

This Monday, First Lady Melania Trump announced the title of her mission to help the nation’s youth:‘Be Best.’ The White House released a statement announcing that the program would focus on three factors that include children: well-being, opioid abuse and the use of social media.

Speaking in the Rose Garden, First Lady Melania stated: ‘As a mother and as the first lady, it concerns me that in today’s fast-paced and ever-connected world, children can be less prepared to express or manage their emotions and oftentimes turn to forms of destructive or addictive behavior such as bullying, drug addiction or even suicide.’

Despite the good intentions of Melania, her slogan was mocked by leftists who didn’t like her accent and the fact that English wasn’t her mother tongue.

Here are the tweets:

‘Great! Now Melania is going to have speak in broken English!! Be Best <—- wtf??’ Wrote Tony on Twitter.

‘Your broken English is charming. Did you mean “Be Better”? Or “He’s A Beast!” ? Blink once for help and twice for help & vodka,’ tweeted Katie Brewer.

‘Hey FLOTUS why don’t you “Be Best” and learn proper English so that we can understand your sorry ass. Get your husband in check,’ tweeted Bteena.

‘Melania’s new platform is called ‘BeBest’? Is it supposed to mirror her broken English? Tweeted Jeremy Newberger.

‘That’s funny. Nobody has ever heard her speak anything but broken English and her native porn star tongue,’ tweeted Larry Bryan.

‘This is grammatically incorrect English. What else would we expect from a foreign trophy wife!!!’ Tweeted Piper.

There were several considerations, including:

‘So I guess it is cool to mock folks when English isn’t their first language now? Is it just the Melania or all all immigrants fair game? I’m just curious how much the ground rules have changed in the last year because I was brought up to think that’s always wrong.’ Wrote Persnickety.

‘Dear everyone making fun of Melania’s accent right now…

Melania speaks six different languages: French, English, Slovenian, Italian, German, Serbian.

‘She’s probably smarter than you so you should probably shut up.’ Tweeted Caleb Hull.

Parkland Victim’s Father Blasts The School After It’s Disclosed That The Shooter Assigned to Obama-Era Program

Broward County Public Schools officials revealed that in the mass shooting which occurred at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, on February 14, the 19-year-old Nikolas Cruz who killed 17 people and left 17 wounded had been referred to the PROMISE program, which was created when the Ex-President Obama was in power.

The goal of the program was to keep the minors with misdemeanor offenses from entering the criminal justice system.

That is contrary to what the superintendent had previously stated.

Senator Marco Rubio ‏wrote on his Twitter account that: ‘I was repeatedly told that the Parkland shooter was never in the Promise Program I was asking questions about. Now it turns out that in fact, he was.’

Ryan Petty, the father of Alaina Petty, who lost her life in the mass shooting commented about this on his Twitter account.

He said that this is a stunning revelation and one that flies in the face of the previous statements.

‘The focus should not be on any specific program. It’s the totality of District failures that must be addressed.’ he wrote.

In one of his replies, Petty said that even the benevolent programs are incompetently omitted.

‘The definition of success for many of these programs created perverse incentives for school staff, administrators & law enforcement. Best practices for threat assessment were not in place in Broward schools. In fact, many discipline programs were in direct conflict with established best practices. Our children and teachers are still at risk.’ Petty also added.

Petty pointed that The Broward County School Board failed in their responsibility as an oversight body and that they have forgotten their duty to the educators, students, and parents.

‘We must continue to shine a disinfecting light on the Broward County Schools. Parents must have the information they need to protect their children and to ensure Broward schools deliver the education they promise,’ he added.

Ryan Petty has been outspoken on the topic of school safety but has received far less publicity than those who advocate for strict arms control.

‘After every school shooting the conversation inevitably moves to gun control, but each side is entrenched in their positions, the moment passes, and nothing gets done,’ Ryan Petty told The Daily Beast. ‘I’m not a policy expert just because I’ve been through a tragedy, but there’s enough we can agree on to let us take effective action.’

Sen. John McCain Regrets Picking Sarah Palin As His Vice-Presidential Running Mate

This Saturday, Arizona GOP Senator John McCain said that he is sorry he chose then-Alaska governor Sarah Palin as his running mate in the presidential race which he lost to Barack Obama.

McCain told The New York Times that if he could do it all again, he would have picked former Senator Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut.

Lieberman also spoke for the New York Times and said that he didn’t know McCain felt that way. ‘It touched me greatly’ said Lieberman.

Sarah Palin started strong as the first female candidate for vice president. But very soon she became a controversial figure.

In one of the cases, Palin denounced as “ridiculous” talk of the Republican National Committee’s $150,000 spending spree on clothing and other accessories for the Palin family, according to The New York Post.

‘Those clothes, they are not my property,’ Palin insisted.

‘Just like the lighting and the staging and everything else that the RNC purchased, I’m not taking them with me,’ she added.

Many Americans back then, said that one of the biggest reasons they voted for John McCain was Sarah Palin, describing her as the best part of the ticket.

No doubt, Palin perked up McCains campaign and many believe that she was the main reason John McCain got as far as he did.

So before he blames everyone else for his lose, maybe McCain should confess to himself, that he was probably just a bad candidate for POTUS.
