The Last Word the Other One Said, Urging Congress to Stand Up
Stand Up
To Trump
This ought to work. They always do.
Sadly, Steve Buscemi is in this one.
A slew of high-profile stars -- including Sally Field, former "The View" co-host Rosie Perez,"“Westworld's" Jeffrey Wright, Keegan-Michael Key, and "Boardwalk Empire" actor Steve Buscemi -- are calling on Congress to "vigorously oppose" any of President-elect Donald Trump's "racist, sexist, anti-immigrant, anti-worker, anti-Muslim, anti-Semitic, anti-environmental policies."
"We demand that you block nominees who threaten the rights of women, the LGBT community, people of color, immigrants, and the poor," Key and Field say in the video released Tuesday, the same day the 115th Congress is poised to be sworn in.
Oh by the way, Bruce Springsteen is melting down as usual.
'I've felt disgust before, but never the kind of fear that you feel now,' Springsteen said of Trump and his administration
He added that he believes Trump appeals to the 'worst aspects' of society such as 'racism, bigotry, [and] intolerance'
'[M]y fear is that those things find a place in ordinary, civil society, demeans the discussion and events of the day, and the country changes,' said the rocker
Springsteen, 67, has been a vocal critic of Trump many times in the past, and he supported Hillary Clinton during the election
