Oscar-winning actress Sally Field’s birthday on Wednesday was not as happy as she’d hoped as she was seen trashing her Kamala Harris yard signs in the wake of Donald Trump’s landslide victory. The 78-year-old star was photographed Wednesday by paparazzi yanking her Harris and pro-abortion signs out of her lawn and tossing them in her dumpster for the garbage man to take away, Fox News reported. Field had been a strong supporter of the Harris-Walz ticket and as Americans went to the polls on Tuesday, she had jumped to her Instagram account to urge all Americans to vote for Harris,...
