1) ‘Orange Is The New Black Star’ Goes On Unhinged Rant Telling Biden To ‘Take That B**** Trump Out’
From Daily Wire: “Orange is the New Black” star Lea DeLaria went on an unhinged rant telling President Joe Biden that he has no other options but to “take that b**** Trump out.”
In a video post on Instagram, the 66-year-old actress compared former President Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler and said Biden must “blow him up.” The video came in response to the Supreme Court’s decision that presidents have immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts, thereby majorly hampering the criminal cases against Trump.
“The Supreme Court has pissed me off so much right now, like so much,” DeLaria started her video. “Joe [Biden], you are a reasonable man. You don’t want to do this, but here’s the reality, this is a f***ing war. This is a war now, and we are fighting for our f***ing country. And these a**holes are going to take it away. … Joe, you now have the right to take that b**** Trump out… Take him out, Joe. If he was Hitler and this was 1940, you’d take him out. Well, he is Hitler, and this is 1940. Take him the f*** out.” … Read More
