It seems no one is safe on the streets of the Big Apple these days – not even beloved hometown actor and Brooklyn native Steve Buscemi.

Buscemi, 66, was strolling through Kips Bay last week when a brute walked up and struck the “Boardwalk Empire” star in a broad-daylight attack – one of the latest unprovoked assaults in the five boroughs, law enforcement sources told The Post.

The actor suffered swelling to his face and left eye and was taken to Bellevue Hospital for treatment. Meanwhile, his deranged assailant took off and is still on the lam, police sources said.

I really like Steve. I wouldn’t cry if someone tuned his assailant up with a golf club. No yelling “Fore”, either.

“still on the lam”

LOL...borrowing old language from the “Boardwalk Empire” days. Haven’t heard that phrase in a coon’s age.

Never heard of him.
John Wayne was a star. Clint Eastwood is a star. Johnny Carson was a star.
This Steve guy? I’m thinking he’s just on a show somewhere.

Steve Buscemi Spells Out Why Joe Biden Is 'Acceptable Under The Circumstances'
"What Joe is, and what he has always been, and what he will be as your next president is not Donald Trump."
By Lee Moran
Aug 21, 2020

Actor Steve Buscemi made the case for Joe Biden in a “Daily Show” biopic of the Democratic 2020 presidential nominee on Friday. The “Boardwalk Empire” star admitted in the video he narrated that Biden isn’t the most inspirational of politicians. But he’s satisfactory and someone to steady the ship given “the shitstorm we’re in right now,” the actor said.

“What Joe is, and what he has always been, and what he will be as your next president is not Donald Trump,” Buscemi concluded. “That’s what makes Joe Biden acceptable under the circumstances.”

Ok, Steve, sorry you got punched, but could you please compare the August 2020 "shitstorm" to today? By every single metric, this "shitstorm" is 5X to 10X worse than they were when you thought that "uninspirational" Joe would "steady the ship."

A reminder for anybody who doesn't know or forgot: Steve Buscemi is a former NY firefighter, and spent days helping his former firehouse search for "Ground Zero" survivors immediately after 9/11.
