On a mission from MAGA god(?) [View all]

Infamous Jew-hating racist Mel Gibson gets 'special' job from Trump - Daily Kos

Donald Trump is appointing three washed-up actors to serve as "special ambassadors" to Hollywood, including the notoriously racist and antisemitic Mel Gibson.

"It is my honor to announce Jon Voight, Mel Gibson, and Sylvester Stallone, to be Special Ambassadors to a great but very troubled place, Hollywood, California," Trump wrote in a Thursday post on Truth Social.

...in 2006, Gibson went on an antisemitic tirade during a drunk driving arrest in Los Angeles.

According to a police report, "Gibson blurted out a barrage of anti-semitic remarks about 'fucking Jews'. Gibson yelled out: 'The Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world.' Gibson then asked: 'Are you a Jew?'"


Gibson and Voight, I get. Two peas in a fascist pod. But Stallone? Though I must confess I know nothing of his politics.
