Robert De Niro went on an anti-Trump tangent when he joined the Biden campaign for a press conference outside the courthouse where Trump’s hush money trial was hearing closing arguments.

It was a sharp reversal for Biden’s campaign, which had mostly ignored the trial since it began six weeks ago and is now hoping to capitalize on the drama-filled closing arguments of the extremely contentious hush money trial.

Last Monday, the Biden campaign produced a new ad, narrated by De Niro, severely condemning Trump’s leadership and ambitions if reelected. On Tuesday, he stated that he joined the campaign because it was the only way to “preserve our freedoms.”

“I do not wish to terrify you. No, wait, perhaps I do intend to shock you,” Robert De Niro told reporters. “If Trump returns to the White House, you can kiss these freedoms goodbye that we all take for granted.”

The actor portrayed himself as the authentic New Yorker, mocking Trump’s history of sometimes-failed business attempts and self-promotion, claiming Trump intended to “destroy” the city.

“We New Yorkers used to tolerate him when he was just another crappy real estate hustler masquerading as a big shot,” stated De Niro. “I love this city. I do not want to destroy it. Donald Trump intends to destroy not only the city, but also the country, and perhaps even the entire globe.”

On his way back to his car after the news conference, De Niro got into an argument with three pro-Trump demonstrators, who yelled that he’s a “wannabe,” a “paid sell-out” to the Democratic National Committee, a “nobody,” and a “little punk” whose “movies suck.”

“You’re not going to intimidate,” De Niro said. “That’s what Donald Trump does. We will fight back. The Democrats are attempting to be gentlemen in this world. You’re gangsters. “You are gangsters!”

A demonstrator yelled, “You’ve washed up.”

“F— you,” Robert De Niro fired back.

The Trump team likewise held a press conference ridiculing the Biden campaign’s use of De Niro.

Spokesperson Karoline Leavitt criticized “elitist out-of-touch Hollywood actors like Robert De Niro, who have no idea the real problems that people in this city and across this country are facing.”

She described the Biden campaign as “desperate and failing” and “pathetic,” and said their appearance outside the trial was “a full-fledged admission that this trial is a witch hunt that comes from above.”

“The best that Biden can do is roll out a washed-up actor,” Trump campaign senior adviser Jason Miller said.

Meanwhile, as Trump and his advisers accuse the trial of being politically motivated, he has been seeking to make the proceedings into an extension of his presidential campaign.

He’s exploited the proceedings as a fundraising opportunity, criticizing Biden and displaying a procession of his own political supporters.

Former President Trump’s historic trial in New York City has received extensive media coverage since Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg accused him with 34 counts of first-degree falsifying corporate documents.

Trump has pleaded not guilty in the case, which comes from a hush money payment made by his personal lawyer Michael Cohen in 2016 to adult film actress Stormy Daniels regarding an alleged affair she had with the future president in 2006. Trump has denied any interaction with Daniels.

Prosecutors must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Trump fabricated records to hide the $130,000 payment to Daniels as part of another felony: conspiracy to promote or prevent election. It is the first criminal trial of a former President of the United States in history.

The defense in New York v. Trump rested its case on Tuesday morning, without bringing the former president to testify. The jury was dismissed until next week, when closing arguments will be presented.

Robert De Niro “Shouted Down”

Robert De Niro’s anti-Trump comments reek of insane bias. The actor’s Trump Derangement Syndrome causes him to lash out with profanity and anger. His over-the-top attacks may appeal to Trump detractors, but they make De Niro appear petulant and unstable.

He labeled Trump a “real racist” and a “white supremacist,” despite Trump’s long history of rejecting racism. De Niro’s ranting makes him appear insane, not believable. His outbursts demonstrate that his deep hatred for Trump has caused him to lose all sense of reason and perspective.

Rather than engaging in meaningful policy issues, De Niro resorts to wild, puerile insults. His Trump Derangement Syndrome has clearly progressed into an obsessive frenzy that is killing his head. According to Hollywood sources, he has gone insane. His incoherent outbursts only serve to highlight Trump’s ability to incite his insane behavior.

Jason Kelce Smashes College Football Fan's Phone

Retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce destroyed a Penn State football fan’s phone after the alleged heckler called his brother, Travis Kelce, a fag.

In now-viral footage published on X (previously Twitter) on Saturday, Nov. 2, the retired Philadelphia Eagles great was seen accompanied by football fans outside Beaver Stadium in State College, Pa., for the Penn State-Ohio State game.

As the individual capturing the tape lifted a fist to Jason, 36, and called his name for a fist bump, another man nearby hurled the homophobic slur at the retired Philadelphia Eagles star.

Hey, Kelce. How does it feel that your brother is a queer dating Taylor Swift?” the man questioned, referring to Travis, 34, who has been seeing Swift since 2023. Jason turned around seconds later, snatched the man’s phone, and crushed it to the ground.

“Looked like a Penn State student was getting in Kelce’s face for no reason,” the original X user who submitted the video remarked. “Wild scene in State College.”

Additional footage on X shows Jason smashing the phone on asphalt before picking it up and walking away. The phone’s owner, wearing a Penn State hoodie at the time of the incident, was shown in many videos strolling closely behind Jason and recording him before the conflict occurred.

Another footage published on X, which appears to have been filmed after Jason shattered the man’s phone, showed the hooded Penn State supporter trudging through a mob to pick up his phone off the ground.

“Give me my phone, bro,” he seemed to say to Jason.

The NFL alum seized the gadget first, then stood in front of the man and asked, “Who’s the fag now?” Others appeared to interfere.

The incident occurred while Jason was at Beaver Stadium for an appearance on ESPN’s College GameDay. The Ohio State Buckeyes won Saturday’s game 20-13 over the Penn State Nittany Lions.

Shaun White, the Olympic snowboarding champion, already has an impressive medal tally, but his surprise proposal to Nina Dobrev deserves a gold medal.

On Wednesday, the couple announced their engagement on Instagram. Dobrev posted photographs of the two hugging under an arch of white roses and showing off her five-carat Lorraine Schwartz engagement ring.

“RIP boyfriend, hello fiancé,” Dobrev said in the caption.

However, the photographs only tell half the tale, as Shaun devised an elaborate plan to surprise Dobrev with his proposal.

Shaun White’s Proposal To Nina Dobrev Was Romantic Gold

According to a Vogue interview published Wednesday, Shaun said he assembled a team of people from the couple’s inner circle and Vogue personnel to trick Dobrev into thinking she had been invited to an intimate dinner party with Anna Wintour.

White claimed that his publicist emailed Dobrev a forged invitation to the event, which was scheduled to take place at the Golden Swan in New York City.

Dobrev accepted the invitation, joking that Shaun made it “look so legitimate.”

He even asked Dobrev’s stylist to outfit her in Chanel for the event.

Dobrev said she recognized what was happening when she entered the venue and saw White standing beneath the flowery arch.

Hollywood Actress Teri Garr Passes Away at 79

Hollywood Actress Teri Garr Passes Away at 79
Teri Garr, known for her roles in classics like "Young Frankenstein" and "Tootsie," has passed away at 79.

Hollywood actress Teri Garr, known for her roles in classics like “Young Frankenstein” and “Tootsie,” has passed away at 79. She died Tuesday of multiple sclerosis “surrounded by family and friends,” said publicist Heidi Schaeffer.

Admirers took to social media in her honor, with writer-director Paul Feig calling her “truly one of my comedy heroes. I couldn’t have loved her more” and screenwriter Cinco Paul saying: “Never the star, but always shining. She made everything she was in better.”

Throughout her career, the performer, often known as Terri, Terry, or Terry Ann, seemed destined for show business from a young age.

Her father was Eddie Garr, a well-known vaudeville comic, and her mother was Phyllis Lind, one of the original high-kicking Rockettes at New York’s Radio City Music Hall. Their daughter began dancing classes at six and was performing with the San Francisco and Los Angeles ballet companies by age fourteen.

She was 16 years old when she joined the road crew of “West Side Story” in Los Angeles, and she began starring in small roles in films as early as 1963.

In an interview from 1988, she described how she landed the role in “West Side Story.” After being rejected at her initial audition, she returned the following day dressed differently and was accepted.

Teri Garr, a comedian

Teri Garr then found steady work as a movie dancer, appearing in the chorus of nine Elvis Presley films, including “Viva Las Vegas,” “Roustabout,” and “Clambake.”

She has also appeared on various television shows, including “Star Trek,” “Dr. Kildare,” and “Batman,” and was a featured dancer on the rock ‘n’ roll music show “Shindig,” the rock concert performance “T.A.M.I.,” and a cast member of “The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour.”

Her breakthrough role was as Gene Hackman’s girlfriend in Francis Ford Coppola’s 1974 thriller The Conversation. This led to an interview with Mel Brooks, who offered her the Gene Wilder’s German lab assistant role in Young Frankenstein if she could speak with a German accent.

“Cher had this German woman, Renata, making wigs, so I got the accent from her,” Garr once said.

The film established her as a great comic performer, with New Yorker film writer Pauline Kael calling her “the funniest neurotic dizzy dame on screen.”

Her big smile and off-center appeal helped her land roles in “Oh, God!” with George Burns and John Denver, “Mr. Mom” (as Michael Keaton’s wife), and “Tootsie,” in which she played the girlfriend who loses Dustin Hoffman to Jessica Lange and discovers he has dressed up as a woman to revive his career.

 A gift for spontaneous humor

Teri Garr, best known for comedy, has shown in films such as Close Encounters of the Third Kind, The Black Stallion, and The Escape Artist that she can also tackle drama.

She had a gift for spontaneous humor, frequently playing David Letterman’s foil during early guest appearances on N.B.C.’s “Late Night With David Letterman”.

Her appearances grew so frequent, and the pair’s good-natured bickering so convincing that rumors of romantic involvement circulated for a while. Years later, Letterman acknowledged those early appearances with helping the program become a success.

During those years, Garr began to experience “a little beeping or ticking” in her right leg. It started in 1983 and expanded to her right arm, but she thought she could handle it. By 1999, her symptoms had gotten so bad that she saw a doctor and was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

After disclosing her diagnosis, Garr became a spokesman for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, giving hilarious remarks at events in the United States and Canada.
