Well how on earth did I miss this story? Oh wait, I know: I quit watching anything that even vaguely portended to be news programming. I’ll bet that Fox and Friends covered this little gem ad nauseum all Christmas week. It all started December 21 with a now infamous tweet from somebody using the handle @lenibriscoe: Who the heck is Hilaria you ask, and why should I care? Turns out the ex-dancer, yoga instructor, lifestyle influencer (yeah, that’s a real thing) is the wife of pugnacious actor Alec Baldwin – one of our distinctly superior fellow citizens. Could he possibly...

Hilaria Baldwin is married to Alec Baldwin, the mouthy star who does a terrible impression of Donald Trump for Saturday Night Live. Hilaria, or Hillary Hayward Thomas as she was known growing up in Boston, is on the receiving end of internet sleuths who seem to be out to cancel her for faking a Spanish accent and lying about where she was born. Page Six has the story. Hilaria Baldwin has been forced to defend her fluctuating Spanish accent — and admitted that her name is “Hillary.” The wife of Alec Baldwin took to Instagram Sunday morning after a Twitter...

Ah, Hollywood is at it yet again. This time, we've got Alec Baldwin blaming Trump voters for supposedly bringing American "near moral collapse" because, well, they voted for the guy. This makes them accomplices to evil. Or something. On Monday, Baldwin took to Twitter via his foundation's account in order to go after all those who voted for then-candidate Donald Trump back in 2016. "American democracy has always been a struggle between the misaligned protections of specific freedoms and a raging, at times intoxicating, 12 cylinder economy," he wrote. "It demanded vigilant/consistent regulation, compassion for the disenfranchised, and the periodic...

Actor Alec Baldwin has made the outlandish claim that Americans must vote President Donald Trump out of office if they want to live, in an apparent reference to the Chinese coronavirus pandemic. The Hunt for Red October star tweeted Friday that “Trump’s presidency must die so that we can live.” Alec Baldwin has made a series of strange and unverifiable claims about President Trump in recent weeks. Last week, the actor pushed a wild conspiracy theory that the president could use armed force to stop the election in November, citing the recent decision to send federal agents to quell the...

In yet another inciting tweet from left-wing celebrities, far-left actor Alec Baldwin chose civil rights activist Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday to describe a “dream” he had which included a noose hanging outside of a courthouse during President Donald Trump’s “sedition” trial. Inciting his radical Twitter following, the progressive activist and Saturday Night Live and Boss Baby star took to Twitter on Friday to share his vision which included the president undergoing trial for sedition while a noose — made of recycled protective masks — hangs from a makeshift scaffold. [cut] Despite Twitter’s policy of banning posts and shutting down...

Twitter is apparently very selective about its disapproval of violence, indicating that some violence is better than other violence. If the right person threatens violence against the right person, it is safe on Twitter's platform. The tweeted reaction from Baldwin's followers was mixed. Some mocked or criticized him, while others chuckled, offering additional, grimmer enhancements to his dream.Busy plotting U.S. Constitution First Amendment suppression on a mass scale internationally, Twitter executives apparently were quite pleased that a person of Baldwin's character implemented their vision so readily. The 75 million deplorables who voted for President Donald J. Trump have still yet...

Now, Saturday Night Live Donald Trump impersonator Alec Baldwin has thrown support behind Kim on social media. “If Cuomo threatened Ron Kim’s career, Cuomo should resign,” Baldwin tweeted Thursday morning. The tweet comes approximately one month after Baldwin’s public exit from the social media platform, in the wake of wife Hillaria Baldwin’s “Spanish heritage” controversy. “Twitter is like a party where everyone is screaming. Not much of a party,” the actor tweeted on January 18. “Goodbye for now.” Hillaria later apologized.

VIDEO"PUT THAT COFFEE DOWN!" It is not hard to imagine the younger Alec Baldwin yelling that at the older Alec Baldwin. The contrast between the two is quite startling. While the younger Baldwin was sharp and assertive, the older Baldwin is rambling and whining as you can see in his recent video in which he about the cancel culture that is now starting to eat its own by going after liberals such as himself. Ironically the speech by the younger Alec Baldwin is probably doomed to being cancelled by the very cancel culture that liberals such as Alec Baldwin fostered.

Alec Baldwin has posted a 14-minute video rant on Instagram, hitting out at cancel culture and defending due process amid sexual misconduct allegations leveled at New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Woody Allen. The Hollywood actor, 62, shared the video from his home in the Hamptons on Sunday - less than a week after he posted another lengthy rant slamming 'a**holes' on Twitter. In his new video, Baldwin again lambasted social media users - this time targeting those who are eager to 'cancel' famous men on the basis of unproven allegations.

Five Manhattan lawmakers wrote to New York Attorney General Letitia James on Friday, urging her to probe Manhattan DA Cy Vance’s failed support eight years ago of more lenient sex offender monitoring for multi-millionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. The inexplicable, kid-glove treatment has already prompted outrage by one challenger for Vance’s office.

Embattled governor Andrew Cuomo (D., N.Y.) has retained the services of a high-powered criminal defense attorney who defended Harvey Weinstein and Woody Allen against allegations of sexual assault. Elkan Abramowitz, a former federal prosecutor with close ties to Manhattan district attorney Cy Vance, will serve as legal counsel to the governor and his top aides, the Wall Street Journal reported Monday. New York attorney general Letitia James is investigating the Cuomo administration on several fronts. Three women have now accused the governor of sexual harassment. Allegations include unwanted kissing and touching, as well as inappropriate or suggestive comments, such as...

Those with claims against Weinstein will have the opportunity to vote to accept or reject the proposed settlement until Dec. 18. The latest version of a settlement that aims to bring an end to most claims against Harvey Weinstein from women who accuse him of sexual misconduct will be put before those accusers for a vote. U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Mary F. Walrath on Tuesday approved the disclosure statement that will be sent to the women and the procedures that'll be used to solicit their responses. This version of the settlement still includes a $17 million sexual misconduct claims fund, an...

Harvey Weinstein has come down with a fever and is being tested for the coronavirus, The Post confirmed on Tuesday. The 68-year-old convicted rapist was awaiting results of his COVID-19 test at a maximum security prison in upstate New York, a source said. “We can confirm that Mr. Weinstein has a fever and is being closely monitored by the excellent medical staff [at the Wende Correctional Facility] for which the entire legal defense team is grateful,” his reps, Juda Englemeyer and Craig Rothfeld, said in a statement.

Disgraced film producer Harvey Weinstein has been charged with six more counts of forcible sexual assault in Los Angeles, the Los Angeles District Attorney said on Friday. The charges involve two victims and stem from incidents that occurred more than a decade ago in an unnamed Beverly Hills hotel, District Attorney Jackie Lacey said in a statement. 'I am thankful to the first women who reported these crimes and whose courage have given strength to others to come forward,' Lacey said in a statement.

Prominent feminist attorney Lisa Bloom, who is also the daughter of Gloria Allred, took to Twitter on Friday to insist that she believes former Vice President Joe Biden sexually assaulted Tara Reade but that she would vote for him anyway. Reade came forward on March 25 to claim that while she worked as a staffer for Biden’s senate office in 1993, he pinned her against the wall, groped her, and put his hands under her skirt to penetrate her with his fingers. Unlike the dubious allegations against now-Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, left-leaning media outlets refused to cover Reade’s allegations...

RUSH: John Solomon, Alison Spann had at TheHill.com: “A well-known women’s rights lawyer” Lisa Bloom, the daughter of Gloria Allred “sought to arrange compensation from donors and tabloid media outlets for women who made or considered making sexual misconduct allegations against Donald Trump during the final months of the 2016 presidential race, according to documents and interviews.” Now, let’s be clear what this story says. The story says that Lisa Bloom “sought to arrange … for women who” would come forward and accuse Trump of sexual harassment, to be paid by either tabloid media or donors, in order to get...

A women’s rights lawyer tried to solicit cash from donors and media outlets for women who accused President Donald Trump of sexual misconduct, a new report said Friday. Attorney Lisa Bloom offered to sell the alleged victims’ stories to TV outlets and wanted to pocket a portion for herself as a commission, The Hill reported. She persuaded a donor to pay off one accuser’s mortgage and tried to get a fat six-figure payment for another woman who eventually declined to come forward even after she was offered as much as $750,000, the website reported, citing Bloom’s clients as sources. Bloom...

Several former clients of Lisa Bloom are publicly castigating the lawyer, who recently advised disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein, for seemingly caring more about money and publicity than civil rights, a cause she once championed with previous clients. Bloom, the daughter of prominent women's rights attorney Gloria Allred, resigned as an adviser to Weinstein two days after the New York Times published its bombshell story on the film producer earlier this month, but her decision to work with Weinstein in the first place raised eyebrows. Among those who were surprised by the decision was NBC investigative reporter Ronan Farrow, who...

Let's talk about how I can do better,” Lisa Bloom said. It was a Friday morning — the first day the attorney was back in her Woodland Hills law firm following her resignation as Harvey Weinstein’s adviser — and she'd called her staff into a meeting. She wanted to apologize. She told her colleagues she'd made a "colossal mistake" in deciding to represent the Hollywood producer against numerous claims of sexual harassment. That she was sorry for associating the firm with a case that ended up being such a nightmare.​ That she should have known better. Bloom is not often...
