Actor and activist Sean Penn declared the Trump administration’s coronavirus policies were no better than “gunning down” vulnerable communities “from a turret at the White House” at the Cannes Film Festival.
Speaking at the French film festival about his new film, Flag Day, Penn told the media of his efforts to continue observing coronavirus protocols as he filmed the movie. He also spoke about his efforts to sponsor vaccination and testing facilities in underserved communities.
Penn slammed officials who pushed what he deemed to be “misinformation,” and the actor and director had particularly harsh words for the Trump administration.
“We were — not only as a country but as a world – let down and openly neglected, misinformed. We had truth and reason assaulted under what was in all terms an obscene administration,” he exclaimed.
Penn went on to claim without giving examples that Trump’s policies were no less than murderous, saying, “when my team and I would come home from test and vaccinations sites at night, particularly during testing under Trump, to maddening news — it felt like someone with a machine gun gunning down communities that were most vulnerable from a turret at the White House.”

He really is an idiot.
Sounds like he’s taken to smoking the pipe again.
Where were all those bodies littering the streets?
Oh, that’s right, there weren’t any.
From COVID, or from Trump.
What a moron.
Penn is, still and always will be irrelevant.
He had this vision in one of his cocaine stupors.
Another movie I won’t bother seeing.
Given the things that live in the surrounding swamp I’d say that’s an opportunity rich target zone. Considering the bloated ranks around DC I think Madonnas cuckle here is running out of relevance, needing an attention fix.
The fool will forever be Spicoli.
Another under educated person that pretends to be other people for a living. Sorry … don’t care what he has to say about anything.
President Trump was pressured to do things right now, faster and more .... so he DID .... and SUCCEEDED !
WE ARE THE MEDIA NOW .... AND IF WE DON'T STOP "LIKING" SHIT AND ACTUALLY RE-POST GOOD AND VALID DATA AND INFORMATION .... F*** IT .... SHUT FREEREPUBLIC DOWN !
Certain drugs make him hallucinate
This comment is just cheap, lacking creativity, and bizarre. He's usually better than that for sure. If he's stopped doing drugs maybe he should consider starting back up again?
Why isn’t he in Cuba right now, defending his beloved regime fro the Eeevil Insurrectionists?
He (penn) is a price of crap that is out of touch like more of the rich actors. They go to africa and feed some kids and act like all republicans are bad. If you are not in line with the hollywood people then you have a hard time getting work. I don’t go to the movies anymore because of these people. And it was expensive anyways. I miss taking my wife to the matinee for a date. But can spend my money other ways. We just get the apps and stream movies at home. They get your money one way or another but they won’t get my effort to go to the theatre. So go screw yourself penn, you only did one good movie and you were young.
That should read Actor and moron.
