On part à Venise, en Italie, où se tient jusqu'à samedi 6 septembre la 82ème Mostra. Le plus ancien festival de cinéma au monde fait la part belle aux productions américaines, notamment en compétition. On se souvient qu'en 2016, La La Land ouvrait le festival vénitien, Emma Stone remportait le prix d'interprétation féminine quelques mois avant la razzia aux Oscars. Les majors et les plateformes de streaming profitent du rendez-vous vénitien pour faire la promotion de leurs productions. De notre envoyée spéciale à Venise,  Moins exposée que le festival de Cannes, idéalement programmée pour lancer la campagne des Oscars, la Mostra est devenue ces dernières années l'écrin rêvé pour les productions hollywoodiennes de prestige. Et notamment les films de plateformes qui peuvent ici concourir en compétition. Parmi les blockbusters d'auteurs en lice pour le Lion d'or : Frankenstein. Netflix a accordé un budget faramineux, 120 millions de dollars à Guillermo del Toro, pour revisiter ce classique de Mary Shelley : la création contre-nature d'un être humain à partir de cadavres. « On vit dans une époque de terreur et d'intimidation. Et pour moi la réponse, c'est l'amour et l'art en fait partie. La question que pose le roman, c'est : qu'est-ce qu'un être humain ? Il n'y a pas de tâche plus urgente que de préserver notre humanité. Mon film montre des personnages imparfaits et le droit d'être imparfaits », explique Guillermo del Toro. Ces films hollywoodiens questionnent tous la perte ou la quête de sens. Dans Jay Kelly, le réalisateur Noah Baumbach met en scène George Clooney en mégastar se rendant compte, à 60 ans passés, qu'il est bien seul dans la vie. « Quand vous faites un film sur un acteur, vous faites en réalité un film sur l'identité et la représentation, finalement la quête de soi, raconte le réalisateur. C'est ce que nous éprouvons tous : nous ne sommes pas les mêmes avec notre famille, nos amis ou nos collègues. Nous sommes différents personnages selon les situations. » Plus radical, mêlant science-fiction et satire de l'époque, Bugonia de Yorgos Lanthimos montre une Amérique en perte de sens. Deux Américains complotistes kidnappent une cheffe d'entreprise, campée par Emma Stone, qu'ils prennent pour une extraterrestre. Pour le réalisateur, déjà primé à Venise il y a deux ans, le propos est plus réaliste que dystopique : « Mon film reflète le monde réel. Tout ce que l'on voit dans le monde, l'intelligence artificielle, les guerres, le dérèglement climatique, c'est ce qui se passe en ce moment. » La Mostra doit encore présenter plusieurs gros calibres américains en compétition, comme le nouveau film de Kathryn Bigelow avec notamment Idris Elba, ou The Smashing Machine avec Dwayne Johnson, alias The Rock, dans un rôle à transformation comme les adore l'Académie des Oscars.

Julia Roberts und George Clooney gehören seit Jahrzehnten zur A-Liga in Hollywood. Dabei ist es ihnen gelungen, sich von ihren ikonischen Rollen in "Pretty Woman" und "Emergency Room" zu lösen. Doch das ist nicht das einzige Geheimnis ihres Erfolges. Nicodemus, Katja www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Vollbild

Rüdiger Suchsland berichtet von ersten Filme am Lido – starbesetzt von Noah Baumbach, themenschwer von László Nemes; außerdem Filme aus Osteuropa, sowie Antworten auf die ewige Frage, wie eighentlich das Filmfestival von Venedig funktioniert

Weltstar George Clooney spielt in seinem neuen Film "Jay Kelly" sich selbst - einen Hollywoodstar mit all seiner Verletzlichkeit. Der Film habe eine melancholische Tiefe, die man noch in keinem Clooney-Film sah, meint Filmexpertin Katja Nicodemus. Nicodemus, Katja www.deutschlandfunk.de, Kultur heute

In Venedig haben die 82. Filmfestspiele begonnen. Höhepunkt des Festivals ist laut Filmkritiker Rüdiger Suchsland der Film „Jay Kelly“ mit George Clooney in der Hauptrolle.

Abbiamo visto il nuovo film di Noah Baumbach con protagonisti un George Clooney e un Adam Sandler in stato di grazia. Forse il film più da grande pubblico mai fatto dal regista americano, che però ci è sembrato meno puntuale del solito.

In this edition of arts24 with Eve Jackson, dive into the dazzling opening night of the Venice Film Festival. From Cate Blanchett and Tilda Swinton to George Clooney and Heidi Klum, we take you inside the star-studded red carpet moments. Also on the programme: an exhibition giving "Downton Abbey" fans the chance to own a piece of television history. From costumes to iconic props and even the Grantham family's car, these treasured items are on display in London ahead of a charity auction at Bonhams.

RFI revient pendant l'été boréal sur les grands boycotts de l'Histoire, quand David fait trembler Goliath en usant de l'arme économique. De l'Irlande à Israël en passant par l'Afrique du Sud ou l'Inde, du lait en poudre au pétrole en passant par les bus de Montgomery, le boycott transforme le consommateur en citoyen, un mouvement d'expression et de colère qui fait pression sur les puissants. En 2019, l'acteur américain George Clooney fut à l'initiative d'un boycott qui fit reculer Bruneï sur la peine de mort en cas d'homosexualité ou d'adultère.  C'est une voix que tout le monde ou presque connait : « What else ? »  En 2019 George Clooney ne met pas sa notoriété qu'au service d'une célèbre marque de café. Sa voix, l'acteur américain l'utilise aussi pour défendre les droits humains.  Le sultanat de Bruneï, petit État d'Asie du Sud-Est à majorité musulmane, est sur le point d'instaurer la charia. La loi islamique prévoit — entre autres — la peine de mort pour les homosexuels et les personnes coupables d'adultère.  Le 28 mars, George Clooney appelle dans une tribune à boycotter les intérêts du sultan, en l'occurrence « neuf des hôtels les plus prestigieux du monde » détenus (via l'Agence d'investissement de Bruneï) en partie par le monarque. Il signe une tribune dans le magazine américain Deadline : « Cela fait des années que je pratique des régimes meurtriers, j'ai appris que vous ne pouvez pas leur faire honte. Mais vous pouvez faire honte aux banques, aux financiers et aux institutions qui font des affaires avec eux. Soyons clair, chaque fois que nous prenons une chambre ou que nous organisons une réunion que nous dînons dans l'un de ces neuf hôtels, nous mettons de l'argent directement dans la poche d'hommes qui choisissent de lapider et de fouetter à mort leurs concitoyens homosexuels ou accusés d'adultère. »  À lire aussiBrunei punit l'homosexualité de lapidation, levée internationale de boucliers Ambiance La tribune est à la une des journaux télé. Du chanteur britannique Elton John à l'ex-championne de tennis Billie Jean King, les stars relaient l'appel au boycott. De la star de télé Ellen DeGeneres au patron de Virgin Richard Branson. Les États-Unis, l'Union européenne, l'Australie protestent, mais rien n'y fait : comme prévu, la loi entre vigueur le 3 avril 2019.  Manifestations à Londres Dans les rues de Londres, quelques centaines de Britanniques se réunissent devant l'hôtel Dorchester lié au sultan. Aux cris de « honte à vous », ils appellent le gouvernement à rompre tout lien diplomatique avec Bruneï.  Le tollé s'étend aux acteurs économiques. La Deustche Bank interdit à ses employés de séjourner dans les hôtels épinglés. Plusieurs entreprises annulent leurs événements dans les établissements liés au Sultan.   Le 6 mai, l'appel est entendu du côté de Brunei À l'occasion du début du ramadan le sultan Hassanal Bolkiah s'adresse à son peuple : « Nous pratiquons depuis plus de vingt ans un moratoire de facto sur la peine de mort qui relève la loi héritée de l'empire britannique. (la common law). Ce moratoire s'appliquera également aux affaires qui relèvent de la charia ». En d'autres mots, le monarque recule sans pour autant vraiment céder puisque, si les châtiments prévus contre les homosexuels et les personnes reconnues coupables d'adultère ne seront pas appliqués, la loi islamique, elle, reste en vigueur.  En juin dernier, l'un des plus fervents activistes du boycott, l'Américain Jake Duke Mason saluait ce moratoire comme « une victoire majeure ». Mais rappelait que le combat continue pour une « abrogation totale de la loi ».  

Jake discusses the 2010 Action Film, The American.

There have been a number of big summer movies like "F1: The Movie," "Superman" and "Jurrassic World: Rebirth." But these popcorn movies are not likely destined for big awards.

In this episode I had the pleasure of speaking to Harold O'Neal. Harold is an acclaimed pianist, composer, producer, and storyteller, celebrated across jazz, classical, film, and pop genres. His versatility and creativity have earned him wide recognition in both artistic and innovation circles. His experiance and perspective has really made me think a lot about some things in my life and I think you will too.More about Harold. Born in Arusha, Tanzania and raised in Kansas City, Missouri. He demonstrated an early talent for music, playing piano by ear from the age of four. His piano work bridges jazz and classical traditions, prompting critics like The New York Times to liken him to legends such as Duke Ellington, Kenny Kirkland, and Maurice Ravel. He's been awarded a prestigious fellowship with the Royal Society of Arts—an honor shared by historical figures like Charles Dickens, Benjamin Franklin, and Stephen Hawking. He served as a creative expert on Pixar's Oscar-winning film Soul and has worked with high-profile artists and institutions—including U2, Jay-Z, George Clooney (as music director), the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Aloe Blacc, and the United Nations. In addition, he is keynote speaker and creative strategist at events hosted by Google, NASA's JPL, TEDx, World Economic Forum, TIME, and more. (hHarold masterfully blends musical excellence, storytelling, and innovation. Whether through solo performance, collaboration with major artists, creative advising in film, or thought leadership on creativity, his work crosses boundaries and inspires across fields. It's no wonder he's considered one of the most inventive and compelling musicians of his generation.

I have used the word “impressive” more times than I could count when conversing with today's guest, whose passion is to reconnect people to the wisdom of ancestral eating. For him, this work is deeply personal—it's not just about creating a product, but about addressing the nutritional deficiencies that are at the root of so many modern health challenges. James Barry is on a mission to make organ meats, which are some of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet, accessible and enjoyable for everyone. He wants to break down the barriers of stigma and convenience that often keep people from embracing these powerful foods. He believes that merging traditional wisdom with modern convenience is the key to true wellness. Food is medicine, and by embracing nutrient-rich, whole foods, we can heal not just our bodies but also our connection to the planet and each other. His hope is to inspire listeners to see that small, intentional changes can have a profound impact on their health and vitality. It's about making health accessible, sustainable, and, most importantly, enjoyable. James Barry's 20 years in the culinary field started as a private chef cooking for celebrities such as Tom Cruise, George Clooney, Gerard Butler, Mariska Hargitay (of Law & Order:SVI fame), Barbra Streisand, and John Cusack. James is CEO & Founder of the organ-based, superfood seasoning, Pluck. It's the first of its kind and an amazingly easy and delicious way for people to get organ meats into their diet. James is also a published cookbook author having co-authored the recipes in Margaret Floyd's book Eat Naked and Dr. Alejandro Junger's book, Clean 7. He authored the cookbook The Naked Foods Cookbook. He is the host of the podcast, Everyday Ancestral.

In this episode we tackle Steven Soderbergh's "Out of Sight" (1998), the smooth, stylish crime caper that helped make George Clooney a movie star, and, against all odds, convinced us that (the-artist-formerly-known-as) Jennifer Lopez could actually act... Yes, the same JLo responsible for a string of recent cinematic crimes turns in such a memorable performance here, that we're forced to eat our words… at least for 90 minutes.Make a film recommendation for an upcoming episode!Thank you for listening!

Sustainability isn't just a buzzword, it's becoming a brand essential. And no one understands that better than the Environmental Media Association (EMA). In this episode of Brand Slam, hosts Steve Rosa and Joe Kayata go behind the scenes of a major milestone, how our virtual production studio became the first on the East Coast to earn EMA's Green Seal for Studios. EMA CEO Debbie Levin joins the conversation to talk about what that seal means, why it matters, and how sustainability is reshaping media and marketing. Debbie Levin has been a force in environmental storytelling for over two decades. She's helped make green productions something brands can actually do—and want to do. From celebrity campaigns to certifying feature films, she's helped shift the way Hollywood talks about sustainability. In this episode, Debbie, Steve, and Joe dive into the Green Seal process, why it aligned with our values, and what it takes to build a space with sustainability in mind. They talk about the power of celebrity influence, including a story from EMA's recent IMPACT Summit featuring George Clooney. The episode wraps with a real talk on authenticity. With “greenwashing” on the rise, Debbie shares honest advice for brands that want to tell environmental stories the right way. Whether you're in media, marketing, or just want to make an impact—this one's for you. Interested in a particular topic or want to be a guest? Contact us at brandslam@addventures.com.

Wer ist June Coco? Ich weiß es auch nicht – jedenfalls am Anfang. Beim Blind Date auf Berlins Museumsinsel treffe ich eine Indie-Pop-Sängerin mit Zauberklang, Babybauch und George Clooney im Fanclub. Es wird musikalisch, yogisch und ziemlich überraschend. Inklusive einer Challenge mit Leopardenkleid und Barfuß-Spirit. Ich schwitze, June strahlt. Und am Ende gibt's Punkte. Oder nicht?

This week, the boys grab a few beers and head back to 2018 to catch up on what was happening the year “Annihilation” came out, before diving into a discussion about re-watching Alex Garland's follow-up to his 2015 hit “Ex Machina”. Dave owns the film, John has seen it 3 or 4 times but the time lines get blurred (movie reference), and Jeff hasn't gone back since his shimmery experience in the cinema summer 2018.

For the fourth movie choice based on the theme of death, we travel to Hawaii to hang with Clooney. This film has some heavy drama, but with Alexander Payne sprinkling in his dry humor and the sights and sounds of Hawaii ever-present, the story keeps from sinking into too dark of a place. The Descendants (2011), directed by Alexander Payne.

In this episode, Kelly is joined by Jonathan Mahler! He is a staff writer for The New York Times Magazine, his sports journalism has been featured in the book “The Best American Sports Writing”, and he is the  author of two books: “Ladies and Gentlemen, The Bronx is Burning” as well as “The Challenge.” And his third book “The Gods of New York” is available now wherever you buy books! Join them, as Jonathan tells kelly a bit about where he's from, and his profession. Kelly asks about raising kids in New York City, and what age did he think is ok for kids to ride the subway.  Kelly asks Jonathan to give him a background of New York City leading up to the 1980s. Jonathan tells him what it was like to cover the 2016 presidential campaign, and how he was inspired to write this book.  Jonathan tells Kelly about some of the stories that were going on during the second half of the 1980s, and Kelly talks about how he remembers living through a lot of these headlines.  Kelly asks Jonathan what he thinks of the current Mayoral race in New York City. Jae tells a funny story of what floridians think of the race. And Jonathan recounts how he thinks that the events of his book have a direct effect on this current political climate.  Jonathan talks about his research process for the book, what archival he used, and the people he was able to interview. Jae and Kelly talk about how much they love the writing of the book: How personable it is, how funny it is, and how the passion for New York City is dripping off every page.  Kelly asks Jonathan to tell us about the title of the book: "The Gods of New York". Jonathan talks about where the title came from, how much he loves the title, but also why he was apprehensive to call it that. Finally, Kelly asks Jonathan some questions about his writing process, as well as some fun quick New York City questions that every New Yorker has an answer for.    But above all else; Jonathan Mahler is a New Yorker!   Kelly Kopp's Social Media: @NewYorkCityKopp   Jonathan Mahler's Social Media:   Chapters (00:00:00) - New Yorkers Podcast: Jonathan Mahler(00:01:39) - Meet Jonathan Livingston: Born and Raised in New York(00:04:46) - Jonathan Wolff on His New Book 'The Gods of New York(00:07:19) - New York's Rise and Fall(00:11:31) - In the Elevator With Andrew Cuomo(00:12:15) - The New York Mayor's War(00:14:41) - In the Elevator With Ed Koch(00:16:26) - How To Write A Detailing of the AIDS Era(00:19:01) - Interviewing Rudy Giuliani and Donald Trump(00:22:25) - In the Elevator With Bernard(00:22:52) - Bernie Getz: The Death Wish(00:27:02) - George Clooney on the NYC mayoral race(00:29:49) - Sen.

OCEAN'S ELEVEN was a monster hit, and so naturally Steven Soderbergh made a sequel. An extremely normal sequel that didn't confuse or piss off almost everyone who saw it. We're getting silly today talking about OCEAN'S TWELVE - a very silly movie - with writer and film critic Rory Doherty! We're both sick right now so that's all the episode description you get, sorry!

There were big expectations in 2017 for the Baywatch movie. 21 Jump Street had shown that raunchy, irreverent takes on cheesy '80s and '90s TV shows could earn bofo box office, and with the dual star power of Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron, it looked as if Baywatch couldn't miss. But critics hated it and the movie was a flop at the box office, canceling Paramount's big plans for a Baywatch Cinematic Universe. So, what happened? And is the movie really as bad as its reputation? What does this movie think it is? Is it a raunchy R-rated comedy that wants to mock its source material? Or is it a loving tribute to the most-watched series in the world in the 1990s? It's… kind of neither. Does The Rock make any sense in the lead role of Lieutenant Mitch Buchanan, or has he fully entered the “most boring actor in every movie he's in” portion of his career? Why does the movie suddenly start working as a surprisingly functional comedy when The Rock inexplicably disappears from the movie for 25 minutes and Efron takes over as the lead? Join Laci, Matt, and our official Zac Efron correspondent Caleb for a spirited debate about a movie we're actually pretty divided on. Plus a deep dive into the history of Baywatch and an in-depth look at Dwayne Johnson's extended business empire.  The Summer of Rock is our summer 2025 miniseries covering the movie career of Dwayne Johnson through nine movies, presented in chronological order. Starting with his attempt at crossing over from the world of wrestling, The Rock's career got off to a bumpy start before finally taking off in the 2010s. But it wasn't long before the bumps returned, and we'll be telling the story for you all summer long!  Bonus video: Matt takes us through movies (like Baywatch) that explicitly promise a sequel and then never end up getting a sequel: https://youtu.be/2pUm5aHkssE Subscribe to our Patreon, Load Bearing Beams: Collector's Edition for $5 a month to get two extra episodes! https://patreon.com/loadbearingbeams    Time stamps: 00:04:03 — Our personal histories with Baywatch the TV series AND the movie 00:17:55 — History segment, part 1: The creation of Baywatch (the TV series), and its unlikely rise to become the most-watched show in the world 00:30:30 — History segment, part 2: The production of Baywatch (the movie) under director Seth Gordon 00:47:45 — History segment, part 3: An in-depth look at Dwayne Johnson's business empire, insatiable appetite to own the world, potential presidential ambitions, and relationship with Vince McMahon 01:11:20 — Discussing the 2017 Baywatch movie at length 02:41:10 — Final thoughts and star ratings   Sources: “The Drive (and Despair) of The Rock: Dwayne Johnson on His Depression, Decision to Fire Agents and Paul Walker's Death” by Stephen Galloway | Hollywood Reporter (2014) - https://bit.ly/3JdxLgy   “Dwayne Johnson lets his guard down” by Chris Heath | Vanity Fair (2021)  - https://bit.ly/45qy3rI   “How ‘Baywatch' Went From an Early Belly Flop to the Big Screen” by Chris Lee | New York Times (2017) - https://bit.ly/41yxmeP  (reprinted in the Austin American-Statesman: https://bit.ly/45gTDjT) “The Inside Story Behind Baywatch, The TV Phenomena That Owned The '90s” by Brian Boone | Looper (2023) - https://bit.ly/4fyTaNb   “‘Baywatch' Origin Story: How One Lifeguard Turned His Dream Into A Hassle That Paid Hoff” by Michael Schneider | IndieWire (2017) - https://bit.ly/40Y00WM   “How ‘Pirates' & ‘Baywatch' Are Casualties Of Summer Franchise Fatigue At The Domestic B.O.” by Anthony D'Alessandro & Anita Busch | Deadline (2017) - https://bit.ly/412Na9G   “Dwayne Johnson once fired his agents because they didn't agree he could be bigger than Will Smith and George Clooney.

Today, we catch up with Kaitlyn Dever, originally episode 475 from 2022-09-21.Original writeup below:If you are unaware of Kaitlyn in your adventures through the wide world of broadcast media, prepare to make fast friends with a true great, and an absolute gem of a person at that. Kaitlyn's been putting down serious moves since childhood, including a Shakespeare stint at RADA (Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts for those pondering), and her filmography is stellar - ranging from Justified, to Dopesick, to Unbelievable, and more recently Ticket To Paradise (starring alongside Julia Roberts and George Clooney, where the cinema screen actually cracks midway through from so much gorgeous). This is a lovely chat, properly engaging and it's such a treat to hear Kaitlyn's story. OH and as Pip hints at in the intro, prepare for a Kaitlyn fact that will blow yer mind. She casually peppers it in there but thankfully Pip mashes on the brakes and reverses and double takes seamlessly. Enjoy!

Movie of the Year: 1999Three Kings (feat. Best Movie Year Ever author Brian Raftery!)In this episode of Movie of the Year, the Taste Buds dive deep into Three Kings, the 1999 Gulf War satire movie directed by David O. Russell. Set in the aftermath of the Persian Gulf War, the film follows a group of U.S. soldiers—played by George Clooney, Ice Cube, and Mark Wahlberg—as they set out on a gold heist and instead face the moral complexities of war. This Three Kings movie blends action, comedy, and political commentary while paying homage to war films of the past.War and Morality in the 1999 Three Kings MovieWe explore how Three Kings uses the Gulf War setting to comment on U.S. foreign policy, the chaos of post-war Iraq, and the blurred lines between heroism and self-interest. The film is not just a war movie—it's a war satire and a war comedy-drama rolled into one, making it a unique entry in late-90s cinema.David O. Russell's Bold Directing StyleFrom unconventional camera techniques to sharp tonal shifts, Three Kings is a prime example of David O. Russell's fearless filmmaking. We discuss how his approach, both on and off set, shaped the movie's lasting legacy and why it stands apart from other Gulf War movies.Three King's Multicultural Cast Redefines the War GenreWith a diverse lineup that includes Clooney, Wahlberg, and Ice Cube, Three Kings challenges typical casting for war movies. We break down how the characters' backgrounds and performances enhance the story's authenticity and cultural reach.Guest Panelist: Brian RafteryJoining us is Brian Raftery, author of the upcoming book on Hannibal Lecter's cinematic history. Brian also created the acclaimed Ringer mini-series Mission Accomplished, chronicling the making of Three Kings and the tension between David O. Russell and his cast. His behind-the-scenes insight adds depth you won't find anywhere else.Find all of Brian Raftery's everything here, including his book Best. Year. Ever. How 1999 Blew Up The Big Screen. Bonus Segment: Magnolia (1999)As a special treat, the Taste Buds also discuss Paul Thomas Anderson's sprawling epic Magnolia, another standout from the cinematic powerhouse year of 1999. They examine how both Magnolia and Three Kings reflect the ambitious, risk-taking spirit of late-90s filmmaking.Whether you're a longtime fan or discovering it for the first time, our Three Kings podcast episode offers fresh insights into one of the boldest war films of the decade. Listen now to hear how this Gulf War satire still resonates today.

Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger cover the surprising news that French President Emmanuel Macron and First Lady Brigitte Macron have filed a 218-page, 22-count defamation lawsuit in Delaware Superior Court against conservative commentator Candace Owens. The suit alleges that Owens spread false and malicious conspiracy theories, including claims that Brigitte Macron was born male and is secretly Emmanuel Macron's brother, as well as that the couple is involved in CIA mind-control experiments.  These accusations were widely circulated through Owens' eight-part podcast series “Becoming Brigitte,” social media posts, and branded merchandise, which the Macrons argue were used to profit from their reputational harm. In response, Owens has doubled down on her claims, calling the lawsuit a “goofy PR stunt” and framing the legal action as an attack on her First Amendment rights. And special bonus: Jimmy is even called out by name in the lawsuit for talking about Candace Owens' claims! Plus segments on Trump's plan to solve the homelessness problem through incarceration and the target on Burkina Faso's independent-minded president, Ibrahim Traore. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from George Clooney!

On today's episode, Andy & DJ discuss Obama directing a ‘Treasonous Conspiracy' against Trump, the Trump Administration releasing over 200K MLK Jr. Assassination files, and Hunter Biden lashing out at George Clooney and other Democrats over Joe Biden's 2024 campaign.

Hunter Biden's Interview Behavior Described as erratic, vulgar, and unhinged. Frequently uses profanity and makes controversial statements. Criticizes Democrats like George Clooney, James Carville, and Nancy Pelosi. Criticism of the Democratic Party Accuses the party of racism and exploiting both African Americans and undocumented immigrants. Claims Democrats view immigrants as modern-day slaves, only useful for menial labor. Joe Biden’s Mental Health Hunter allegedly admits Joe Biden took Ambien before a 2024 debate, contributing to his poor performance. Suggests a cover-up involving Biden’s physician and the White House. Drug Commentary Hunter discusses the chemical differences between crack and powdered cocaine. The speaker sarcastically refers to him as a “crack expert” and mocks his past drug use. Conspiracy and Power Struggles Claims a “coup” within the Democratic Party forced Joe Biden out of the 2024 race. Names figures like Pelosi, Schumer, the Obamas, and the Clintons as orchestrators. Foreign Policy and Immigration Hunter is quoted as saying he would threaten to invade El Salvador to return deported immigrants. This is used to portray him as unstable and dangerous.
