Actress Patricia Heaton has warned Christians to brace themselves for an &#8220;onslaught&#8221; of media hate over the next few weeks as President Trump and the Republicans push a Supreme Court nomination to fill the late-Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg&#8217;s seat.
In a tweet on Sunday, Heaton, while not specifically mentioning the SCOTUS battle ahead, warned Christians, especially Catholics, to be prepared for a high-level of religious ignorance.

“Friends, be prepared for social media to be filled with an onslaught of arrogant pronouncements based on breathtaking ignorance of religion in general, Christianity specifically and Catholicism in particularly by people who wouldn’t recognize God if He bit them on the bum,” <a href="https://twitter.com/PatriciaHeaton/status/1307847773581193218" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">she tweeted</a>.

Heaton has been a stalwart pro-life advocate. In February, she denounced the Democratic Party for hosting a &#8220;barbaric&#8221; platform.
&#8220;I don’t understand why pro-life people want to know if they are &#8216;welcome&#8217; to join the democrat party,&#8221; s<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/actress-patricia-heaton-rips-democratic-party-and-its-barbaric-abortion-platform">aid Heaton</a>. &#8220;Why would any civilized person want to support a barbaric platform that champions abortion for any reason through all nine months funded by taxpayers?&#8221;
&#8220;P.S. I didn’t vote in the last presidential cycle and will not be voting in this one. I am not a Trump supporter,&#8221; she added.
Though Heaton did not mention her by name in her Sunday tweet, the media and the Democrats have already been portraying Judge Amy Coney Barrett, Trump&#8217;s frontrunner to replace Ginsburg, as a psycho religious extremist who helped inspire Margaret Atwood&#8217;s &#8220;The Handmaid&#8217;s Tale.&#8221;  Writing at NBC News, feminist Jill Filipovic stressed that Barrett would be the &#8220;ultimate insult to RBG&#8221;:
<blockquote>
Instead of doing what Ginsburg did — pushing doors open, reaching out to help others through — Barrett tried to slam them shut. She went on to be a conservative lawyer, professor and judge, and if she is appointed to the Supreme Court, she will likely be key in undermining much of what has allowed American women to make the progress they have: abortion rights, contraception access and prohibitions on many forms of gender discrimination.
This certainly puts Barrett at odds with most of America&#8217;s most venerated female lawyers and jurists <a href="https://academic.oup.com/jla/article/8/2/277/2502548#57101604">and with female lawyers more generally</a>. Feminism creates something like a virtuous cycle: As women gain greater opportunity, they become more invested in preserving and expanding what they&#8217;ve gained.
</blockquote>
Likewise, <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/amy-coney-barrett-people-praise-group-inspired-handmaids-tale-1533293">Newsweek tried</a> (and failed) to claim that Barrett&#8217;s charismatic Catholic group &#8220;People of Praise&#8221; inspired Margaret Atwood&#8217;s &#8220;The Handmaid&#8217;s Tale.&#8221;
&#8220;Members of People of Praise are assigned to personal advisers of the same sex—called a &#8216;head&#8217; for men and &#8216;handmaid&#8217; for women, until the rise in popularity of Atwood’s novel and the television series based on it forced a change in the latter,&#8221; the outlet reported. &#8220;Atwood herself has indicated that the group’s existence motivated her to write The Handmaid’s Tale, set in the fictional Gilead, where women’s bodies are governed and treated as the property of the state under a theocratic regime.&#8221;
Newsweek later issued a correction to the story, noting that People of Praise did not inspire Atwood&#8217;s novel and that no evidence exists to suggest that.

On Monday, after taking a beating in the media over the summer, comedienne Ellen DeGeneres publicly apologized on camera for her show&#8217;s allegedly toxic work environment.
“As you may have heard, this summer there were allegations of a toxic work environment at our show and then there was an investigation. I learned that things happened here that never should have happened,” <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/watch-ellen-apologizes-for-toxic-work-environment-i-take-responsibility">she said</a>. “I take that very seriously and I want to say I am so sorry to the people who were affected. I know that I’m in a position of privilege and power and I realized that with that comes responsibility, and I take responsibility for what happens at my show.”
Ellen&#8217;s former employees, however, did not accept her apology and were incensed over the fact she inserted sarcastic comments throughout her monologue.
“Not only did Ellen turn my trauma, turn our traumas, into a joke, she somehow managed to make this about her,” a former employee <a href="https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/krystieyandoli/ellen-employees-react-to-apology" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">told BuzzFeed News</a>.
“When she said, ‘Oh, my summer was great’ and that was supposed to be funny, I thought, ‘It’s funny that you had a rough summer because everyone was calling out all of the allegations of your toxic work environment and now you’re the one suffering?’” another said.
“When you’re talking about people who have accused her leadership of the seriousness of sexual misconduct, I don’t think it’s appropriate to have jokes in the monologue,” another said.
During her monologue, Ellen addressed the rumors that she doesn&#8217;t often live up to her &#8220;be kind&#8221; sloganeering, joking that nobody should ever portray themselves as the kind person again.
“There were also articles in the press and on social media that said that I am not who I appeared to be on TV because I became known as the ‘be kind’ lady. And here’s how that happened: I started saying, ‘be kind to one another’ after a young man named Tyler Clementi took his own life after being bullied for being gay,” DeGeneres said.
“I thought the world needed more kindness and it was a reminder that we all needed that, and I think we need it more than ever right now,” she continued. “Being known as the ‘be kind’ lady is a tricky position to be in. So let me give you some advice out there if anybody’s thinking of changing their title or giving yourself a nickname, do not go with the ‘be kind’ lady. Don’t do it.”
A former employee said that the joke rang hollow because it failed to address those who have allegedly experienced Ellen&#8217;s unpleasantness.
“I don’t feel sorry that she’s in a s***tload of trouble because she branded herself the ‘be kind’ person,” said one former employee. “She’s acting like it was something she said in passing that just stuck with her. It’s not something that stuck with her, it’s not an accident. She went forward with this idea and this marketing strategy that was not true behind the scenes.”
“There’s nothing wrong with being the ‘be kind lady’ if you’re actually true to your word,&#8221; the employee added.

Former MSNBC host Chris Matthews took a beating on social media Monday when leftists scolded him for daring to praise Trump for his classy and all-American response to Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg&#8217;s death last Friday.
&#8220;Trump is right to show respect for RBG. True presidential behavior. Far too rare,&#8221; Matthews tweeted.

On Friday night, after learning news of Ginsburg&#8217;s death, the president said he was &#8220;sad&#8221; to hear of her passing and praised her life accomplishments.
“She led an amazing life,” Trump said. “What else can you say? She was an amazing woman. Whether you agreed or not, she was an amazing woman who led an amazing life. I am sad to hear that.”
Of course, this moment of humanity was seen as an empty gesture by far-leftists.

Chris Matthews <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-msnbcs-chris-matthews-announces-retirement-during-tv-segment">announced his retirement</a> this past March after being slapped with a spate of sexual harassment allegations.
“After conversation with NBC, I decided tonight will be my last ‘Hardball,&#8217;” Matthews continued. “So let me tell you why: The younger generations are ready to take the reigns. We see them in politics, the media, and fighting for their causes. … They grew up with better standards, fair standards. A lot of it has to do with how we talk to each other, compliments on a woman’s appearance that some men, including me, might have once incorrectly thought were okay, were never okay. Certainly not today.”
“For making such comments in the past, I’m sorry,” Matthews continued. “I’m very proud of the work I’ve done here. Long before I went on television, I worked for years in politics, was a newspaper columnist and author. I’m working on another book. I’ll continue to write and talk about politics and cheer on my producers and crew here in Washington and New York and my MSNBC colleagues. They will continue to produce great journalism in the years ahead. For those who have gotten in the habit of watching ‘Hardball’ every night I hope you’re going to miss me because I’m going to miss you.”
Though Republicans have vowed to replace Ginsburg&#8217;s seat prior to the 2020 election, they have largely spoken of the late justice with kind words, praising for her commitment to jurisprudence and her courage to persist in the face of debilitating illnesses. On Monday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) especially highlighted Ginsburg&#8217;s ability to befriend people with whom she disagreed, particularly the late-Justice Antonin Scalia.
“On the court, Justice Ginsburg was a universally-admired colleague,” <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/watch-mitch-mcconnell-honors-rbg-on-the-senate-floor">said McConnell</a>. “No wonder that so many Americans have taken particular comforts in these past days by remembering her famous friendship with her ideological opposite, the late Justice Scalia.  Together, they made sure the halls of justice would also reign with laughter and comedy. They rarely sat on the same side of a high profile decision, but they still sat together at the opera and most any other time they could manage to be together.”

CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin fears that Democrats are too &#8220;weak&#8221; to keep Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg&#8217;s seat empty long enough to oust President Trump from office.
Speaking on a panel with CNN&#8217;s Alisyn Camerota, Jeffrey Toobin said that nobody should take seriously Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer&#8217;s (D-NY) vow to do anything and everything to block a Supreme Court nomination.
“Democrats are great about talking big, but we’ll see if he has the &#8230; if he and the other Democrats have the guts to do anything,” Toobin said. “If they retake control of the Senate, will they really add the two seats on the Supreme Court?”
&#8220;If they&#8217;re in control, why wouldn&#8217;t they?&#8221; asked Camerota.
&#8220;Because they&#8217;re weak, they&#8217;re wimps and they&#8217;re afraid,&#8221; he shot back. &#8220;We think about Bush v. Gore.  In 2016, Al Gore said, &#8216;No street protests. This is just a legal process.'&#8221;
Even though far-left Democrats have been rioting in the street for the past few months and have vowed to riot if Republicans replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Toobin said that Democrats need to &#8220;learn&#8221; from Republicans.
“There is a difference to how Democrats and Republicans go about these fights and we’ll see if Democrats learn anything from Republicans here. Yes, it’s interesting that Chuck Schumer said nothing is off the table, but that’s not a commitment to do anything,” Toobin said.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has already said that the GOP stands ready to approve President Trump’s nominee before the election, arguing that the 2016 standard does not apply to 2020, given the circumstances.
“In the last midterm election before Justice Scalia’s death in 2016, Americans elected a Republican Senate majority because we pledged to check and balance the last days of a lame-duck president’s second term. We kept our promise. Since the 1880s, no Senate has confirmed an opposite party president’s Supreme Court nominee in a presidential election year,” McConnell <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/mcconnell-honors-ginsburgs-life-vows-to-hold-vote-on-trump-supreme-court-nominee">said on Friday</a> shortly after honoring late-Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s life.
“By contrast, Americans reelected our majority in 2016 and expanded it in 2018 because we pledged to work with President Trump and support his agenda, particularly his outstanding appointments to the federal judiciary. Once again, we will keep our promises,” he continued. “President Trump’s nominee will receive a vote on the floor of the United States Senate.”
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer reportedly told Congressional Democrats on a call that &#8220;nothing is off the table&#8221; in stopping the Ginsburg&#8217;s replacement. Mitch McConnell warned on Monday of &#8220;dirty tricks&#8221; that might be up the Democrats&#8217; sleeves.
&#8220;Already some of the same individuals who tried every conceivable dirty trick to obstruct Justice Gorsuch and Justice Kavanaugh are lining up &#8230; to proclaim the third time will be the charm,&#8221; <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/schumer-mcconnell-speeches-set-tone-confirmation-battle-ruth-bader-ginsburg">McConnell said</a> on Monday. &#8220;The American people are about to witness an astonishing parade of misrepresentations about the past, misstatements about the present and more threats against our institutions from the same people, the same people who already have been saying for months &#8230; they want to pack the court.&#8221;

On Monday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell issued an impassioned and heartfelt speech on the Senate floor honoring the late-Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg for her steadfast commitment to her office and her ability to befriend those with whom she disagreed.
Speaking in his famous slow and steady cadence, McConnell hailed the late-justice as an &#8220;exceptional American life&#8221; who climbed over obstacles and mountains to achieve her position in America&#8217;s highest court.
&#8220;Our nation is mourning the end of an exceptional American life,&#8221; said McConnell. &#8220;Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg meant so much to our country. First and foremost, she was a brilliant generational, legal mind who climbed past one obstacle after another to summit the very pinnacle of her profession. Justice Ginsburg was a fixture on our nation&#8217;s highest court for more than a quarter of a century. She was not just a lawyer, but a leader.  From majority opinions to impassioned dissent, her life&#8217;s work will not only continue to shape jurisprudence, but also enlightened scholars and students for generations. By all accounts, Justice Ginsburg loved her work because she loved the law.&#8221;
McConnell went on to extoll Ginsburg for her courage and steadfast commitment to excellence despite battling a series of life-threatening illnesses, saying it was a befitting climax to any heroic story. However, his most gentle words were reserved for the justice&#8217;s ability to find kinship with her ideological opposites, most especially, the late Justice Antonin Scalia.
&#8220;On the court, Justice Ginsburg was a universally-admired colleague,&#8221; he said. &#8220;No wonder that so many Americans have taken particular comforts in these past days by remembering her famous friendship with her ideological opposite, the late Justice Scalia.  Together, they made sure the halls of justice would also reign with laughter and comedy. They rarely sat on the same side of a high profile decision, but they still sat together at the opera and most any other time they could manage to be together.&#8221;
After praising Ginsburg&#8217;s commitment to overcoming sexism and plowing through barrier after barrier in her rise to the top, helping &#8220;entire generations of talented women build their lives as they saw fit,&#8221; McConnell then praised Ruth Bader Ginsburg for being a unitive figure in a time of tremendous divisiveness.
&#8220;While Justice Ginsburg relished forceful writing and detailed argument, she was also in important ways a uniter,&#8221; he concluded. &#8220;In recent years, many people who consider themselves for admires, might wish to claim the justice for their political side, have come to embrace reckless proposals to politicize the very structure of the court itself. But Justice Ginsburg remained unswerving in her public commitment to preserving the neutral foundation of the institution she loved. The entire senate is united in thinking of and praying for Justice Ginsburg&#8217;s family.&#8221;
Justice Ginsburg died last Friday due to complications from pancreatic cancer just a little over 10 years after the death of her husband Martin of 56 years.

After a tumultuous summer in which she was accused of fostering a toxic work environment, talk-show host Ellen DeGeneres publicly apologized on camera in the opening monologue for season 18 of her daytime talk show.
Walking out onto her studio set as her virtual audience welcomed her, Ellen immediately said she takes full responsibility for reports about her show not living up to its &#8220;be kind&#8221; reputation.
“As you may have heard, this summer there were allegations of a toxic work environment at our show and then there was an investigation. I learned that things happened here that never should have happened,” she began. &#8220;I take that very seriously and I want to say I am so sorry to the people who were affected. I know that I&#8217;m in a position of privilege and power and I realized that with that comes responsibility, and I take responsibility for what happens at my show.&#8221;
“This is &#8216;The Ellen DeGeneres Show.&#8217; I am Ellen DeGeneres. My name is there, my name is there, my name is on underwear,” she continued. “We have had a lot of conversations over the last few weeks about the show, our workplace, and what we want for the future. We have made the necessary changes and today we are starting a new chapter.”
Ellen then went on to address the various articles and reports about her private behavior &#8212; reports alleging that her phrase &#8220;be kind&#8221; was a sham. Ellen defended herself, saying she adopted the phrase in 2010 after gay teenager Tyler Clementi committed suicide after being bullied.
“There were also articles in the press and on social media that said that I am not who I appeared to be on TV because I became known as the ‘be kind’ lady. And here&#8217;s how that happened: I started saying, ‘be kind to one another’ after a young man named Tyler Clementi took his own life after being bullied for being gay,” DeGeneres said.
“I thought the world needed more kindness and it was a reminder that we all needed that, and I think we need it more than ever right now,&#8221; she continued. “Being known as the ‘be kind’ lady is a tricky position to be in. So let me give you some advice out there if anybody&#8217;s thinking of changing their title or giving yourself a nickname, do not go with the ‘be kind’ lady. Don&#8217;t do it.&#8221;
Getting more serious, Ellen assured people that she is the person that they see on TV and that she is dedicated to bringing people joy in a dark time.
&#8220;The truth is I am that person that you see on TV. I am that person that you see on TV. I am also a lot of other things. Sometimes I get sad, I get mad, I get anxious, I get frustrated, I get impatient. I am working on all of that. I am a work in progress. I’m especially working on the impatience thing, and it’s not going well because it’s not happening fast enough, I’ll tell you that,&#8221; she said.

In late July, a <a href="https://www.buzzfeednews.com/amphtml/krystieyandoli/ex-ellen-show-employees-sexual-misconduct-allegations?bftwnews=&amp;utm_term=4ldqpgc&amp;__twitter_impression=true">BuzzFeed News</a> article claimed that several former employees witnessed head writer and executive producer Kevin Leman sexually propositioning or groping lower-level employees.
“One ex-employee said head writer and executive producer Kevin Leman asked him if he could give him a handjob or perform oral sex in a bathroom at a company party in 2013. Another said they separately saw Leman grab a production assistant’s penis,” BuzzFeed reported. “In May 2017, another former employee also said she saw Leman grope a production assistant in a car and kiss his neck.”
“Nearly a dozen former employees, who range from longtime, senior-level employees to production assistants, said it was also common for Leman to make sexually explicit comments in the office, like pointing out male colleagues’ bulges in their crotches, or ask them questions like, ‘Are you a top or a bottom?’” the report continued.
A former employee said that Kevin’s comments were often “masked in sarcasm” to soften their delivery.
“He’d probably do it in front of 10 people and they’d laugh because ‘it’s just Kevin being Kevin,’ but if you’re in a position of power at a company, you don’t just get to touch me like that,” a former employee said.
Kevin Leman has <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/ellens-head-writer-executive-producers-accused-of-sexual-harassment">denied the</a> accusations outright.
In a statement on Monday, a lawyer for Kevin Leman said that Ellen DeGeneres fired an innocent man based on a faulty report.
“The fact that a deeply flawed BuzzFeed article has led to the termination of an innocent man — a popular figure and a creative force behind the ‘Ellen’ show and a string of other projects produced with Ellen – is shocking,” said Leman attorney Michael Plonsker. “Kevin is devastated by being scapegoated and is not yet ready to comment.”
“I started at the Ellen Show as a PA more than 17 years ago and have devoted my career to work my way to the position I now hold,” said Leman. “While my job as head writer is to come up with jokes — and, during that process, we can occasionally push the envelope — I’m horrified that some of my attempts at humor may have caused offense. I have always aimed to treat everyone on the staff with kindness, inclusivity, and respect. In my whole time on the show, to my knowledge, I’ve never had a single HR or inter-personal complaint made about me, and I am devastated beyond belief that this kind of malicious and misleading article could be published.”
A total of 47 former employees accused executive producer Ed Glavin of fostering a culture of fear and intimidation on a daily basis. Some even said he would use his private shower in his office bathroom with the door wide open.
“You’d be going into his office for an important meeting and the shower door is open and you’re like, that’s a little weird,” a former employee said. “The shower is right when you walk in on the right. Before you even see his desk, you see his shower. He’d be openly showering and going into meetings with wet hair.”
Another former employee also accused co-executive producer Jonathan Norman of grooming him over a period of time by “taking him to concerts and other work-related perks, and then one night attempted to perform oral sex on him.”
“We’re young people who were forming our careers and were unfortunately subjected to a toxic work environment as some of our first jobs out of college,” the former employee said. “And some of us were sexually harassed and that’s what was shaping our careers our first year out of school.”
Speaking to her staff on Monday, Ellen DeGeneres was reportedly “emotional to the point of tears” as she announced the firings and apologized to her more than 200 staffers. Ellen reportedly told her staff that she was “not perfect” and understood that people at her show were not treated like human beings in order to run it as a “well-oiled machine.”

Actor Mark Ruffalo, who plays Bruce Banner/Hulk in the Marvel Cinematic Universe films, used his Emmy Award acceptance speech on Sunday night to make a political statement.
Receiving the award for <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/mark-ruffalo-voting-emmy-speech">outstanding lead actor</a> in a limited series or movie for &#8220;I Know This Much Is True&#8221; on HBO, Ruffalo touted America&#8217;s diversity and encouraged people to vote for compassion this November.
“Our story is about family. It’s about a man who’s fighting for his brother who’s living with mental illness. It’s a story that’s common throughout so much of the United States and the world today, and it asks a big question: how are we going to deal, and honor, and take care of each other, and our most vulnerable people? And we do that with love, and we do that with compassion, and we do that by fighting for them—and that’s what we have to do today,” Ruffalo said.
“We have to come together with love for each other, and if you have privilege, you have to fight for those who are less fortunate and more vulnerable,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;That’s what’s great about America, our diversity, and the one thing I’ve learned in my family &#8230; is that we are stronger together, when we love each other and we respect each other’s diversity.&#8221;
Ruffalo concluded that America&#8217;s moment will be deciding on whether or not it stands for kindness or &#8220;division and hatred.&#8221;
“We have a big, important moment ahead of us. Are we gonna be a country of division, hatred, and a country only for a certain kind of people, or are we gonna be one of love and strength and fighting for those—all of us [unintelligible] all of us have the American dream, and the pursuit of life and liberty and love and happiness in this great country of ours?” he said. “That’s what we’re facing right now. So get out and vote, make a plan, and vote for love and compassion and kindness.”
Predictably, comedian Jimmy Kimmel began the evening by mocking President Trump and his supporters. As the show opened, Kimmel came out onto the stage to thunderous applause from the audience. Quickly it was revealed to be a recording from a previous show and the real Kimmel was seated by himself in the audience.
&#8220;Of course I’m here all alone; of course we don&#8217;t have an audience!&#8221; Kimmel said, as reported by <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2020-emmys-jimmy-kimmel">Fox News</a>. &#8220;This isn&#8217;t a MAGA rally, it’s the Emmys. Instead of a live audience, we took a page from baseball tonight, and we filled the seats with cardboard cutouts of the nominees.&#8221;
Later, Jimmy Kimmel said, &#8220;Has the president tweeted us yet? Oh right, it&#8217;s Sunday, he&#8217;s probably at Church.&#8221;
Actor Daniel Levy apologized for making his acceptance speech political after asking that people register to vote. &#8220;Our show at its core is about the transformational effects of love and acceptance, and that is something we need more of now than we&#8217;ve ever needed before,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;For any of you who have not registered to vote, please do so. And then go out and vote because that is the only way that we are going to have some love and acceptance out there. Please do that. I&#8217;m so sorry for making this political, but I had to,&#8221; he added.

Michael Moore is not taking the news of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg&#8217;s death very well. Now that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has vowed to push a nominee to fill her seat, the left-wing filmmaker is accusing Republicans of trying to enslave women.
Speaking on MSNBC&#8217;S &#8220;Live With Alex Witt,&#8221; the &#8220;Bowling for Columbine&#8221; director said that the passing of Ruth Bader Ginsburg will fire up the Democratic base, namely women, into voting in droves come November.
&#8220;I think that this is—a lot of what I&#8217;ve watched on cable news this weekend—there seem to be a lot of people thinking this is gonna help Trump, that this will inspire his base,&#8221; said Moore, as reported by <a href="https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/brad-wilmouth/2020/09/20/michael-moore-gop-wants-court-keep-their-feet-necks-women">Newsbusters</a>. &#8220;No, the majority of the population—the majority gender is women, and women are gonna vote by at least 10 percentage points over men in this election.&#8221;
&#8220;They&#8217;ve made a big mistake going after this and doing it in such a kind of cruel way. She&#8217;s not even dead for 24 hours, and they were already on it,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;I think that this is gonna have a huge impact, and Alexandria is correct. This isn&#8217;t about whether we like Joe Biden or not; this is about saving our democracy.&#8221;
Moore then echoed Ruth Bader Ginsburg&#8217;s famous statement from 50 years ago when she asked that men take their feet off the necks of women.
&#8220;Fifty years ago—40, 50 years ago—at the beginning, when she first stood in front of the Supreme Court as a lawyer on a gender discrimination case, she said, &#8216;I have one request here, and that is not to ask favor for my gender, it is simply to ask our brethren, men, to please take your feet off our necks,'&#8221; said Moore. &#8220;That was her request 40, 50 years ago. Her request this week just before she died was to say, &#8216;Please, my fervent wish is that I not be replaced until we have a new president—whoever the president is on November 3—that when that president takes office, that is who should replace me.&#8217; That was her last and only request.&#8221;
Moore emphasized that the nation must honor Ginsburg&#8217;s last and only request to keep her SCOTUS seat, even though the seat belongs to the people, not her.
&#8220;We need to honor this last request of hers. We all need to take a pledge to do that. And especially men because we&#8217;re not affected personally by Roe v. Wade, so it&#8217;s even more incumbent upon us to stand up and speak up for women&#8217;s rights and to keep the grubby hands of the Republican Party and the Christian Right off the bodies of women who have their own right to decide what they want to do.&#8221; he said. &#8220;I think that that is just so crucial right now.&#8221;
Should the Republicans get their way, Moore said they will continue to keep their feet on the necks of women, thereby destroying Ginsburg&#8217;s long request from 50 years ago.
&#8220;We haven&#8217;t honored her first request yet from 50 years ago. We still haven&#8217;t taken our feet off women&#8217;s necks—that&#8217;s why they&#8217;re so anxious to get in there right now and get this justice, this right-winger in there and get rid of Roe v. Wade because that&#8217;s what they want,&#8221; he concluded. &#8220;Keep the feet on the necks of women.&#8221;

Former Republican Senator Jeff Flake (AZ), the man who nearly derailed Justice Brett Kavanaugh&#8217;s appointment to the Supreme Court, has joined Sens. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) and Susan Collins (R-ME) in the call for Republicans to withhold voting on a SCOTUS nominee until after the election.
In a tweet on Saturday, the former senator from Arizona said that Republicans should hold themselves to the same standard that they set in 2016, neglecting the fact that they had no obligation to approve Obama&#8217;s appointee.
&#8220;In 2016, nine months before an election, we Republicans said that the next president should fill a Supreme Court vacancy. Today, six weeks before an election, we should hold the same position. Preserving the institution of the Senate should be paramount to any political gain,&#8221; he tweeted.

In 2016, nine months before an election, we Republicans said that the next president should fill a Supreme Court vacancy. Today, six weeks before an election, we should hold the same position. Preserving the institution of the Senate should be paramount to any political gain.
&mdash; Jeff Flake (@JeffFlake) <a href="https://twitter.com/JeffFlake/status/1307467223905132545?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 19, 2020</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has already said that the GOP stands ready to approve President Trump&#8217;s nominee before the election, arguing that the 2016 standard does not apply to 2020, given the circumstances.
“In the last midterm election before Justice Scalia’s death in 2016, Americans elected a Republican Senate majority because we pledged to check and balance the last days of a lame-duck president’s second term. We kept our promise. Since the 1880s, no Senate has confirmed an opposite party president’s Supreme Court nominee in a presidential election year,” McConnell <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/mcconnell-honors-ginsburgs-life-vows-to-hold-vote-on-trump-supreme-court-nominee">said on Friday</a> shortly after honoring late-Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg&#8217;s life.
“By contrast, Americans reelected our majority in 2016 and expanded it in 2018 because we pledged to work with President Trump and support his agenda, particularly his outstanding appointments to the federal judiciary. Once again, we will keep our promises,” he continued. “President Trump’s nominee will receive a vote on the floor of the United States Senate.”
President Trump concurred that he will be selecting a SCOTUS nominee next week, and that it will be a woman.
&#8220;It will be a woman, a very talented, very brilliant woman,&#8221; <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-says-scotus-pick-will-be-a-woman-here-are-12-possibilities?%3Futm_source=twitter">the president said</a> on Sunday. &#8220;I haven&#8217;t chosen yet, but we have numerous women on the list.&#8221;
Regardless of who the president chooses, at least two Republican senators have asked that the vote be withheld until after the November election.
“For weeks, I have stated that I would not support taking up a potential Supreme Court vacancy this close to the election,” Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/my-position-has-not-changed-lisa-murkowski-confirms-she-opposes-replacing-ginsburg-before-election">said in a statement</a>. “Sadly, what was then a hypothetical is now our reality, but my position has not changed.”
“I did not support taking up a nomination eight months before the 2016 election to fill the vacancy created by the passing of Justice [Antonin] Scalia,” she added. “We are now even closer to the 2020 election, less than two months out, and I believe the same standard must apply.”
Likewise, Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME), who cast the deciding vote for Justice Brett Kavanaugh, said that she would <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/sen-susan-collins-calls-on-senate-to-wait-until-after-the-election-to-replace-rbg">like to see the vote delayed</a>.

Anti-maskers are not gonna take it anymore, but &#8220;Twisted Sister&#8221; lead singer Dee Snider says they need to pick somebody else&#8217;s song as their anthem.
After a group of anti-maskers paraded around a Target in Florida while playing the hit 80s song &#8220;We&#8217;re Not Gonna Take It,&#8221; Dee Snider publicly denounced them on social media.
“No…these selfish a**holes do not have my permission or blessing to use my song for their moronic cause. #cuttheshit,” he tweeted.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
As reported by the <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/09/16/anti-maskers-march-through-target-tell-shoppers-to-take-off-that-mask/">New York Post</a>, video of the anti-mask protest went viral on social media showing a group of MAGA supporters throwing off their masks and playing the hit song.
<blockquote>A rowdy group of anti-maskers marched through a Target in Florida and shouted at other shoppers to “Take off that mask,” viral video shows.
Footage on Twitter Tuesday showed the crowd parading around the aisles of the store — located in Ft. Lauderdale, <a href="https://www.huffpost.com/entry/anti-masker-coronavirus-florida-target_n_5f621befc5b68d1b09ca8c8b" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">according to HuffPost</a> — and disregarding the store’s face mask requirement as one of them exclaims, “We’re not going to take it anymore!”</blockquote>
“In celebration of Burn Your Mask Day we decided to spread some freedom dust over the shoppers and employees of Target!” user Chris Nelson wrote in the description of  the YouTube video “Maskless Flash Mob at Target!”
Dee Snider&#8217;s condemnation of the anti-maskers comes on the same week that former Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher called wearing masks &#8220;cowardly&#8221; while lamenting the &#8220;many f***ing liberties being taken away&#8221; while speaking on Matt Morgan&#8217;s &#8220;Funny How?&#8221; <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xsxJMUr3Ug" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">podcast.</a>
&#8220;I choose not to wear one. If I get the virus, it&#8217;s on me. If every other c**t&#8217;s gonna wear a mask, I&#8217;m not gonna catch it off them. And if I&#8217;ve got it, they&#8217;re not gonna catch it off me. I just think it&#8217;s a piss-take,&#8221; <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/former-oasis-frontman-noel-gallagher-refuses-wear-mask-coronavirus">he said</a>.
“I was going up to Manchester the other week and some guy’s going, ‘Can you put your mask on?’ on the train, ‘because the transport police will get on and fine you a thousand pounds. But you don’t have to put it on if you’re eating,’” he recalled. “So I was saying, &#8216;Oh right, this killer virus that’s sweeping through the train is gonna come and attack me, but see me having a sandwich and go, leave him, he’s having his lunch?&#8217;”
“Why do you have to wear one when you’re having a f&#8211;king haircut, but you don’t have to wear one in the pub?” he added.
When the podcast host tried to reason with him about masks, Gallagher called him a &#8220;cowardly germophobe.&#8221;
Celebrities from Tom Hanks to Matthew McConnaughey to Anna Camp have all advocated for people to wear masks and denounced those who refused to do so.
“I don’t get it. I simply do not get it. It is literally the least you can do,” <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/tom-hanks-i-got-no-respect-for-people-who-dont-wear-masks">said Tom Hanks in July</a>. “And if anybody wants to build up an argument about doing the least you can do, I wouldn’t trust them with a driver’s license. I mean when you drive a car you have to obey speed limits, you got to use your turn signals, you have to avoid hitting pedestrians.”
“If you can’t do those three things, then I get it. You shouldn’t be driving a car. If you can’t wear a mask and wash your hands and social distance, I got no respect for you, man. I don’t buy your argument,” he added.

&#8220;The View&#8221; co-host Sunny Hostin demonstrated her disdain for black conservative thinkers once again this week when she rudely interrupted black Republican congressional candidate Kimberly Klacik during her appearance on the show.
The testy exchange began when Klacik was discussing her support in the black community of Baltimore and how the COVID-19 pandemic has severely affected peoples&#8217; lives.
&#8220;I believe the coronavirus pandemic would affect us more, I mean look at my campaign ad. Look at the living conditions.  That would affect us more. Absolutely, that is why I am running for office,&#8221; said Klacik.
At that moment, co-host Joy Behar jumped in to scold Klacik for not blaming President Trump more for the economic hardships facing black Americans.
&#8220;C&#8217;mon, Kim.  Excuse me, I have to say something to you. He told Bob Woodward that it was a very serious issue and it&#8217;s airborne and that it was terrible, and then he went out and told the American people don&#8217;t wear masks, it&#8217;s all going to go away,&#8221; said Behar. &#8220;You have to put some blame on your president.  I&#8217;m sorry.  You are putting it on something extraneous here. Talk to the points, please.&#8221;
Joy Behar was referencing the statements President Trump made to Bob Woodward about downplaying the COVID-19 threat. Dr. Anthony Fauci <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2020/09/09/anthony-fauci-trump-woodward-coronavirus-410895">immediately defended</a> the president, saying he was simply acting in accordance with medical experts.
“I didn’t get any sense that he was distorting anything,” Fauci told Fox News. “In my discussions with him, they were always straightforward about the concerns that we had. We related that to him. When he would go out, I’d hear him discussing the same sort of things.”
During the same interview on &#8220;The View,&#8221; things took an aggressive turn when Klacik attacked Joy Behar for appearing as a &#8220;beautiful African woman&#8221; in a Halloween costume in her youth.
&#8220;Is this Joy speaking? Is the same Joy who paraded around in blackface not too long ago. C&#8217;mon, Joy,  I don&#8217;t think you should be asking these questions,&#8221; she said.
&#8220;That&#8217;s not true.  Excuse me, excuse me! The black community had my back; they know that that was not blackface. That was an hommage,&#8221; Behar shot back.
&#8220;The black community has my back as well,&#8221; Klacik responded.
At that moment, co-host Sunny Hostin immediately interjected and would not let Klacik respond.
&#8220;The black community has your back!? The black community has your back!? Honey, the black community did not vote for you. The black community did not vote for you. What planet are you living on?&#8221; asked Hostin without letting Klacik answer.
&#8220;It was a special election- &#8221; Klacik interjected.
&#8220;What planet are you living on?&#8221; Hostin interrupted.
&#8220;Sunny, can I speak?&#8221; asked Klacik. &#8220;It was a special election while we were still under lockdown and I could not talk to people.&#8221;
&#8220;Wooow! Woooow!&#8221; Hostin loudly said as she shook her head.
&#8220;That was very immature, but thank you for having me,&#8221; Klacik concluded.

Last week, a vocal minority of Evangelical Christians criticized Candace Cameron Bure for posting a goofy PDA photo with her husband of over 20 years that showed him appearing to cup her breast. At the time, the &#8220;Full House&#8221; actress issued a non-apology, telling people to lighten up.
“For all of the Christians that are questioning my post with my husband’s hand on my boob — my husband of 24 years — thinking it was inappropriate, it makes me laugh because it’s my husband,” <a href="https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/life/entertainment/a33979927/candace-cameron-bure-husband-instagram-post/">she said</a>. “We have so much fun together.”
“He can touch me any time he wants, and I hope he does. This is what a healthy, good marriage and relationship is all about,” she continued. “I’m sorry if it offended you — I’m actually not sorry. I’m glad we have fun together after so many years. He can touch me all day long.”

Speaking to <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/candace-cameron-bure-pda-pic-husband-no-shame">Fox News</a> on Thursday, Candace said that she was never trying to make a statement, though she expressed dismay that married couples have to pretend they no longer have sexual attraction.
“I love the fact that so many people had an opinion on it. It made me laugh because I wasn&#8217;t trying to make a statement,” she said. “This is just how my husband and I are. You know, we adore each other and we still have fun and we&#8217;re spicy together.”
“We have a playful, loving marriage and I think that&#8217;s why we&#8217;re still married 24 years later,” she continued. “But I did respond because I always get bummed out when people have been married for so long and then I feel like the joke is always like, &#8216;oh, we&#8217;re married – so that means we don&#8217;t have sex anymore.&#8217; And it&#8217;s kind of like that a lot. And so I thought it was just a cute, funny picture and it was playful and it&#8217;s very much reflective of our personalities in real life.”
The actress said she felt &#8220;no shame&#8221; for posting the photo.
“I&#8217;m like, hey, guys, if you&#8217;re complaining about the picture, maybe you might hope that your marriage is actually a little spicier than it is,” she said. “But this is part of our healthy marriage. And I just wanted to say it because I had no shame in posting that picture. You know, nothing was exposed, I didn&#8217;t think it was immodest. It was just two people having fun and we&#8217;ve been married for 24 years, but together for 26 years. So I just am like, hey, the playfulness doesn&#8217;t stop just because you&#8217;re married.”
Though Bure&#8217;s detractors were vocal, she also had a fair share of defenders, who found it liberating to see a married couple openly enjoying each other.
&#8220;Candace Cameron Bure&#8230;So proud of her sticking to her beliefs. Social media is something, especially for those in the limelight. Exactly, &#8216;this is what married people do&#8230;have fun,'&#8221; said one user.

Actor John Leguizamo will be boycotting the Emmys this year for lack of &#8216;Latinx&#8217; representation.
Speaking with <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/john-leguizamo-boycotts-emmys-155117385.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Yahoo! Entertainment</a>, the &#8220;Critical Thinking&#8221; star said that he has &#8220;no reason&#8221; to watch the Emmys if he does not see people of his ethnicity on screen. He blamed the lack of representation on industry titans for not telling enough stories about Latino people.
“I’m boycotting,” he said. “If you don’t have Latin people, there’s no reason for me to see it. What’s the point?”
“It’s unbelievable that our stories aren’t being told and there’s one reason for that,” he continued. “Executives don’t see us, don’t get us — don’t care about us.”
Leguizamo likened this to &#8220;cultural apartheid.&#8221;
&#8220;I’m just dying to see positive Latin stories out there,&#8221; he emphasized.
“It’s just not OK to ignore us, exclude us,” he added. “We’re the largest minority group in the country. We’re the biggest voting block. We’re going to decide who the president is this year.”
As reported by <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/john-leguizamo-boycott-emmys-lack-latinx-representation">Fox News</a>, no major award category features a nominee of Latinx heritage; black actors, however, are represented in each category alongside a &#8220;handful of other actors of color.&#8221;
The lack of Latin representation at the Emmys has been a major sore note for diversity activists.
&#8220;These disappointments would be laughable if they weren’t so demoralizing. Last year, although four Latinos received nominations and one, Jharrel Jerome, took home a well-deserved trophy for the essential Netflix miniseries When They See Us, not a single Latina performer got a nod from the Television Academy,&#8221; wrote Laura Bradley at the <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/what-the-hell-do-latinx-actors-and-shows-have-to-do-to-get-an-emmy-nomination">Daily Beast</a>. &#8220;And this year, once again, despite a wealth of talent, too few Latinx names made it to the ballot.&#8221;
In response to the alleged lack of diversity, the Television Academy told the <a href="https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/tv/story/2020-07-27/emmys-nominations-diversity-analysis" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Los Angeles Times</a> that representation has made progress over the years despite not always being equal. &#8220;We feel it is a very positive sign that over the past decade the well-deserved recognition of performers of color has increased from 1 in 10 to 1 in 3 nominees across all performer categories,&#8221; said the organization. &#8220;Clearly that increase in representation has not been equal for all groups, and clearly there is still more to do to improve both gender and racial representation across all categories.&#8221;
Last week, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kirstie-alley-new-oscars-inclusion-requirements-a-disgrace-to-artists-everywhere">released its new guidelines</a> for inclusion, which dictated that movies must meet a diversity threshold, employing specific minority individuals in front of or behind the camera to qualify for Best Picture. The Los Angeles Times reported:
<blockquote>Those standards require one of the following: at least one of the lead actors or significant supporting actors is from an underrepresented racial or ethnic group; at least 30% of all actors in secondary and more minor roles are from certain underrepresented groups; or the main storyline, theme or narrative is centered on an underrepresented group.
To be eligible for best picture, a film must meet at least two standards across four categories: “Onscreen Representation, Themes and Narratives,” “Creative Leadership and Project Team,” “Industry Access and Opportunities” and “Audience Development.” Within each category are a variety of criteria …</blockquote>

Pop music icon Lady Gaga believes that white supremacy is such a fundamental part of the United States that every American takes a sip from this poisonous well the moment they are born upon this soil.
Speaking with Billboard in a wide-ranging <a href="https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/pop/9449420/lady-gaga-chromatica-billboard-cover-story-interview-2020" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">interview</a>, the &#8220;Bad Romance&#8221; singer said that she has been working hard to undo the white supremacist ingrained in her from birth.
&#8220;I am in the process of learning and unlearning things I’ve been taught my whole life,&#8221; she said, as reported by <a href="https://thehill.com/blogs/in-the-know/in-the-know/516955-lady-gaga-every-american-drinks-the-poison-that-is-white">The Hill</a>. “When you’re born in this country, we all drink the poison that is white supremacy. Social justice is not just a literacy, it’s a lifestyle.&#8221;
Regarding the latest social media campaign that had high-profile celebrities posting black squares as their profile pics in solidarity with Black Lives Matter, Lady Gaga seemed to call it &#8220;performative activism.&#8221;
<div class="content-with-sidebar-wrp">
<div class="content-wrp">
<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden">
<div class="field-items">
<div class="field-item even">
“What do I think about [posting] a black square? I think everybody has a different feeling about a black square,&#8221; Gaga said. &#8220;Do I think there’s such a thing as performative activism? Yes. Do I think there’s been true activism that’s been very important and needed? Yes. Do I believe Black lives matter? Yes. Do I believe this is going to get louder? Yes. Do I believe it should? Yes.”
In the same interview, Lady Gaga also criticized those who refuse to wear face masks to combat the COVID-19 pandemic.
“It’s really wrong for us to go, ‘I’m uncomfortable [with wearing a mask] because I can’t breathe,’&#8221; she said.
“Give me a break,&#8221; she added. &#8220;Show some respect for the people who are there for us when we dial 911.”
Earlier this summer, following the death of George Floyd, Lady Gaga said that the country will change for the better.
&#8220;I wish to tell you today that though there is much to be sad about, there is also much to be celebrated. You are watching what is a pivotal moment in this [country’s] evolution…change will happen and it will be for the better,&#8221;<a href="https://www.nme.com/news/music/lady-gaga-addresses-death-of-george-floyd-change-will-happen-and-it-will-be-for-the-better-2683572"> she said</a>.
Most recently, singer Demi Lovato told <a href="https://www.vogue.com/article/demi-lovato-letter-of-hope-pandemic-mental-health-black-lives-matter">Vogue</a> that she hated knowing that she shared the same skin color as those who have been accused of killing black people.
“All I knew was that I hated that I shared the same skin color as the people accused of committing heinous crimes against Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, George Floyd and many, many other Black lives,” she wrote. “After taking some time to educate myself, what I’ve learned is that to be a good ally, you need to be willing to protect people at all costs. You have to step in if you see something happening that’s not right: a racist act, a racist comment, a racist joke. And it’s not just with Black Lives Matter. It’s also with the Me Too movement. Finally, the world is waking up and it’s beautiful to witness.”

Actor Andre Braugher has made a career for himself as a television police officer, from his role in &#8220;Homicide: Life on the Street&#8221; to &#8220;Brooklyn Nine-Nine.&#8221; Going forward, he hopes that he can use this brand to address the topic of police brutality, starting with the hit NBC sitcom.
Speaking with <a href="https://variety.com/2020/tv/news/andre-braugher-brooklyn-nine-nine-1234770581/">Variety</a>, Braugher said that after playing cops and detectives for several decades, he has become almost blind to the reality of police brutality and how departments actually work.
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
“I look up after all these decades of playing these characters, and I say to myself, it’s been so pervasive that I’ve been inside this storytelling, and I, too, have fallen prey to the mythology that’s been built up,” Braugher said.
<div class="paragraph">
&#8220;It’s almost like the air you breathe or the water that you swim in. It’s hard to see. But because there are so many cop shows on television, that’s where the public gets its information about the state of policing,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;Cops breaking the law to quote, ‘defend the law,’ is a real terrible slippery slope. It has given license to the breaking of law everywhere, justified it and excused it. That’s something that we’re going to have to collectively address — all cop shows.&#8221;
Though &#8220;Brooklyn Nine-Nine&#8221; is a comedy show and Braugher respects the artistic instincts of the writing staff, he would like to see these issues addressed.
“Brooklyn Nine-Nine has to commit itself, as a comedy, to telling the story of how these things happen, and what’s possible to deal with them. I don’t have any easy answers, nor do I have a window into the mind bank of this writing staff,” he said. “Can you tell the same story? Can anyone in America maintain any kind of innocence about what police departments are capable of?”
As to how the &#8220;Brooklyn Nine-Nine&#8221; characters would handle such a storyline, Braugher had a few ideas.
<div class="paragraph">
“It might mean that Holt is a staunch defender of the NYPD, or that he tries to burn the whole thing down. I know that he is a pragmatic man; I do know that he’s a loving, [if] robotic person,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I’m anxious to see what that’s all about, and I have no idea what Season 8 of Brooklyn Nine-Nine is going to be, because everything’s changed.&#8221;
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
&#8220;It could be a really groundbreaking season that we’re all going to be very, very proud of, or we’re going to fall flat on our face… But I think this is a staff, a cast and a crew that’s willing to take it on and give it our best. I think we have a damn good chance to tell the kinds of stories that heretofore have only been seen on grittier shows,&#8221; he added.
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
As reported by <a href="https://people.com/tv/brooklyn-nine-nine-star-andre-braugher-reflects-on-his-cop-roles-amid-black-lives-matter-movement/">PEOPLE</a>, Braugher&#8217;s comments come two months after his co-star, Andy Samberg, said that the writers were &#8220;rethinking&#8221; how to move forward with the show in the current political climate.
<div class="paragraph">
&#8220;We&#8217;re taking a step back, and the writers are all rethinking how we&#8217;re going to move forward, as well as the cast,&#8221; Samberg said. &#8220;We&#8217;re all in touch and kind of discussing how you make a comedy show about police right now, and if we can find a way of doing that that we all feel morally okay about.&#8221;

After months of silence, comedian Chris Rock has come to the defense of late-night host Jimmy Fallon for doing an impersonation of him in blackface in the early-2000s.
In May, the hashtag #jimmyfallonisoverparty began <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/05/26/why-jimmyfallonisoverparty-is-trending-he-did-blackface/">trending</a> on Twitter when the clip of his SNL sketch from 2000 went viral. After enough backlash, he addressed the social media outrage with an apology, saying he made a “terrible decision” while thanking everyone for holding him “accountable.”
“In 2000, while on SNL, I made a terrible decision to do an impersonation of Chris Rock while in blackface,” Fallon tweeted. “There is no excuse for this. I am very sorry for making this unquestionably offensive decision and thank all of you for holding me accountable.”

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Speaking with <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/09/16/arts/television/chris-rock-fargo.html?action=click&amp;module=Editors%20Picks&amp;pgtype=Homepage&amp;login=email&amp;auth=login-email" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">The New York Times,</a> Rock said that he was never offended by Fallon&#8217;s impersonation and that Fallon never intended to hurt anyone — though Rock did concede that &#8220;blackface ain’t cool&#8221;
“Hey, man, I’m friends with Jimmy. Jimmy’s a great guy,” he told the outlet. “And he didn’t mean anything. A lot of people want to say intention doesn’t matter, but it does. And I don’t think Jimmy Fallon intended to hurt me. And he didn’t.”
On top of his Twitter apology, Fallon also told viewers of his show in June that he felt it was necessary for him to speak out.
“I had to really examine myself in the mirror this week because a story came out about me on ‘SNL,’ doing an impression of Chris Rock in blackface,” Fallon said in June, as reported by <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/chris-rock-addresses-jimmy-fallon-blackface-controversy">Fox News</a>.
“Not at the fact that people were trying to cancel me, or cancel the show – which is scary enough – but the thing that haunted me the most was how do I say, &#8216;I love this person, I respect this guy more than I respect most humans, I am not a racist, I don&#8217;t feel this way,'&#8221; he continued. &#8220;And instead, what I kept getting advised was to just stay quiet and to not say anything. And that&#8217;s the advice because we&#8217;re all afraid.&#8221;
“I realized that the silence is the biggest crime that white guys like me, and the rest of us, are doing,” he concluded.
Some people on Twitter did come to Fallon’s defense, saying that he should not be made to apologize for a 20-year-old comedic sketch.
“It’s sad that a comedian that has done nothing but give back to his community has to apologize for a skit that was written by someone else 20 years ago,” said one user.
“Mannnnnnnnnnn that was 20 years ago, ask Chris Rock what he thinks about it and that should be the level to gauge the outrage, okay other white people?” said comedian Dave Weasel. “People should seek Fallon’s intent here. Was he meaning to be racist or was it a silly impression? There are real racial injustices RIGHT NOW to point the pitchforks at, that’s all I’m saying. Okay, other white people?”
Jimmy Fallon is hardly the first comedian to do blackface; Billy Crystal, Fred Armisen, Jimmy Kimmel, and Robert Downey Jr. have all performed in blackface for one artistic reason or another.
On the flipside, whiteface has been performed by Eddie Murphy, Donald Glover, and the Wayans Brothers.

Music icon Kanye West has been suspended from Twitter after posting a series of incendiary tweets on Wednesday night.
According to <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/kanye-west-kicked-off-twitter-12-hours-doxing-1532528">Newsweek</a>, a Twitter spokesperson confirmed that West was suspended for 12 hours after he posted the private phone number of a Forbes editor and urging his followers to call the individual.
&#8220;The Tweet was removed for posting private information, and the account has been temporarily locked in accordance with our Private Information policy,&#8221; the social media giant confirmed.
Another tweet featured West urinating on a Grammy Award he had placed in a toilet.

In yet another tweet, Kanye West floated conspiracy theories about how the music industry killed Prince and Michael Jackson.
&#8220;We used to diss Michael Jackson the media made us call him crazy&#8230;then they killed him,&#8221; West he said in one tweet. &#8220;Let&#8217;s get it big bro&#8230;you and Michael passed so we can live,&#8221; he said in another tweet in which he shared a photo of the late musician Prince.
After the ban, the hashtag #FreeYe began trending on Twitter, with former Lakers basketball star Rick Fox confirming that Kanye had been placed in Twitter jail.
&#8220;My friend Kanye West wants you all to know that he was kicked off of Twitter for 12 hours,&#8221; tweeted Fox.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Kanye West has been especially critical of the music industry this week. On Monday, the rapper tweeted that both the NBA and the music industry are &#8220;modern-day slave ships&#8221; while likening himself to the prophet Moses.
<blockquote>I need to see everybody’s contracts at Universal and Sony
I’m not gonna watch my people be enslaved
I’m putting my life on the line for my people
The music industry and the NBA are modern day slave ships
I’m the new Moses</blockquote>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Following that, West sent out a now-deleted tweet saying that he will no longer contract his music with Sony and Universal. “I’m not putting no more music out till I’m done with my contract with Sony and Universal … On God … in Jesus name … come and get me,” he said.
Taking it even further, West said that one day his kids will “own” his masters and advised everyone to buy land with government money.
<blockquote>Use the government money and buy land
We have to evolve
Buy property
My kids gonna own my masters</blockquote>
Though it is inconclusive if the illness contributed to his series of tweets this week, Kanye West does suffer from bi-polar disorder, which at times has appeared to color some of his public rhetoric. Earlier this summer, the rapper publicly accused his wife, Kim Kardashian, of trying to lock him up after he admitted to allegedly trying to abort their daughter.
“Kim was trying to fly to Wyoming with a doctor to lock me up like on the movie Get Out because I cried about saving my daughters life yesterday,” he tweeted.
Kanye West later apologized for his statements.
“I would like to apologize to my wife Kim for going public with something that was a private matter,” the rapper tweeted. “I did not cover her like she has covered me. To Kim I want to say I know I hurt you. Please forgive me. Thank you for always being there for me.&#8221;

Lifetime has taken LGBT representation to the next level by casting a real married gay couple in the lead roles for its first LGBT-themed holiday movie this year.
In a <a href="https://www.aenetworks.com/article/lifetime-releases-casting-for-the-christmas-setup-and-a-sugar-spice-holiday">press release</a> on Monday, the channel announced its &#8220;It&#8217;s a Wonderful Lifetime&#8221; holiday movie slate, chief among them being &#8220;The Christmas Setup&#8221; starring actors Ben Lewis and Blake Lee, who are both married in real life. The movie will also be written and directed by members of the LGBTQ community.
&#8220;Known for filling the screen with fun, romantic, inclusive and relatable movies, the network announced today the casting for &#8216;The Christmas Setup&#8217;–the network’s first holiday movie with a lead LGBTQ storyline, written and directed by members of the LGBTQ community, and featuring two gay lead actors who are married in real life,&#8221; said the announcement.
Furthermore, Lifetime will also be featuring its first Asian-American family with the movie &#8220;Sugar &amp; Spice Holiday&#8221; directed, written, and cast by Asians.
Amy Winter, EVP and Head of Programming, Lifetime and LMN, said the channel&#8217;s holiday programming should reflect the world &#8220;we live in.&#8221;
“The world we create on camera should reflect the world we live in,&#8221; said Winter. &#8220;&#8216;The Christmas Setup&#8217; and &#8216;A Sugar &amp; Spice Holiday&#8217; are important additions to the &#8216;It’s a Wonderful Lifetime&#8217; slate because they continue our effort to tell the stories of the diverse communities represented by our viewers. Our hope with these inclusive films and others is that people will see themselves while enjoying universally relatable holiday romances.”
Lifetime billed &#8220;The Christmas Setup&#8221; as a &#8220;feel-good LGBTQ holiday romance&#8221; that will also star Fran Drescher (&#8220;The Nanny&#8221;).
&#8220;&#8216;The Christmas Setup&#8217; follows the story of New York lawyer Hugo (Lewis) who heads to Milwaukee with his best friend Madelyn (Wong) to spend the holidays with his mom Kate (Drescher), who is also in charge of the local Christmas celebrations,&#8221; said the announcement. &#8220;Ever the matchmaker, Kate arranges for Hugo to run into Patrick (Lee), Hugo’s high school friend and secret crush, who has recently returned after a successful stint in Silicon Valley. As they enjoy the local holiday festivities together, Hugo and Patrick’s attraction to each other is undeniable and it looks as though Kate’s Santa-style matchmaking is a success. But as Hugo receives word of a big promotion requiring a move to London, he must decide what is most important to him.&#8221;
This past August, the Hallmark Channel featured its first same-sex wedding after igniting controversy among its fanbase last Christmas when it aired an ad from the wedding company Zola that showed a lesbian kiss. Though Hallmark initially pulled the ad, the company immediately backtracked on its decision after facing an online backlash. In the subsequent <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/hallmark-channel-apologizes-will-allow-lgbt-ads-promises-to-work-with-glaad">apology</a>, Hallmark promised that it would work with the organization GLAAD to better foster a culture of inclusivity in its programming.

The pizza chain where a kid can be a kid is now looking to destroy 7 billion of its famous prize tickets after filing for bankruptcy this past summer due to the steep drop in business during the COVID-19 pandemic.
According to the <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/09/16/chuck-e-cheese-wants-to-destroy-7-billion-prize-tickets-amid-bankruptcy/">New York Post</a>, Chuck E. Cheese parent-company CEC Entertainment said in a court filing on Monday that the heavy supply of prize tickets are no longer needed. The tickets are valued at $9 million—$0.0013 per ticket.
<blockquote>The industry’s “rapid move toward contactless service” amid the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated CEC’s efforts to phase out the paper tickets, along with the “muncher” machines that count them, in favor of electronic tickets, the company said.
But CEC had placed orders for tickets based on how many it had needed before the virus hit, causing “enough tickets to fill approximately 65 40-foot cargo shipping containers” to build up in the supply chain, according to the filing.
CEC asked a Texas bankruptcy court to approve settlements allowing three of its vendors to scrap the excess tickets at a cost of about $2.3 million, roughly $1 million less than the cost of circulating them.
The company also got assurances through its negotiations with vendors that the tickets would not be circulated to the general public, according to the court filing.</blockquote>
In the court filing, James A. Howell, CEC’s chief financial officer, said that the company had to ensure the tickets did not circulate in the general public due to their high value of redemption.
“Since prize tickets are redeemable by guests at significantly higher value than the cost of prize tickets, the debtors instead need to arrange for the destruction of the remaining stock of prize tickets in the supply chain to mitigate any risk of these tickets being circulated to the general public,” Howell said.
Three months after the government shut down the U.S. economy due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the pizza and arcade franchise Chuck E. Cheese filed for bankruptcy to offset the massive losses it incurred. According to <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/after-news-bankruptcy-whats-next-chuck-e-cheese-1511249">Newsweek</a>, the franchise accrued nearly $1 billion in debt with 527 locations in 47 states.
“Founded in 1977, the kids party playhouse has suffered in recent years and the Coronavirus pandemic has really put a strain on their finances,” the outlet reported. “The company apparently tried to <a href="https://www.foodandwine.com/news/local-restaurant-on-delivery-app-actually-chuck-e-cheese-pasquallys" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">sell pizzas under the bogus name</a> of ‘Pasqually’s’ on Grubhub and Seamless in some regions, but that probably won’t save the entire enterprise.”
Should Chuck E. Cheese flounder, it will be the second major business to go under due to the sweeping COVID-19 restrictions that have rendered buffets, arcades, and playgrounds literally untouchable. In May of this year, the popular buffet chain Souplantation, known as Sweet Tomatoes outside of Southern California, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/popular-buffet-chain-souplantation-sweet-tomatoes-closes-permanently-due-to-covid-19">regretfully announced</a> it will be closing all locations permanently due to the pandemic.
Following Souplantation’s unfortunate announcement, fast-food chain Steak N Shake <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/fast-food-chain-steak-n-shake-closes-10-of-locations-permanently-due-to-shutdowns">announced</a> it would be closing 10% of its locations due to the shutdowns.
In March, the National Restaurant Association <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/national-restaurant-association-11-of-restaurants-could-be-lost-in-pandemic">predicted that 11%</a> of restaurants could be closing permanently. Hudson Riehle, the Association’s senior vice president of research, said the data shows the industry is in “uncharted territory.”

Actor Robbie Coltrane, who played Hagrid in the &#8220;Harry Potter&#8221; film series, has come to the defense of author J.K. Rowling amid the backlash against her criticisms of transgender ideology.
Speaking with <a href="http://www.radiotimes.com/search/news/?q=rowling" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Radio Times</a>, Coltrane said that he could not understand why people were so outraged by Rowling&#8217;s comments about sex and gender being real while knocking the &#8220;Twitter generation.&#8221;
“I don’t think what she said was offensive really. I don’t know why but there’s a whole Twitter generation of people who hang around waiting to be offended,&#8221; he said, as reported by <a href="https://news.yahoo.com/robbie-coltrane-jk-rowling-093058414.html">Yahoo U.K</a>. “They wouldn’t have won the war, would they? That’s me talking like a grumpy old man, but you just think, ‘Oh, get over yourself. Wise up, stand up straight and carry on.’”
“I don’t want to get involved in all of that because of all the hate mail and all that s***, which I don’t need at my time of life,&#8221; he added.
As of this writing, Coltrane is the only cast member of the &#8220;Harry Potter&#8221; series to defend J.K. Rowling.
Earlier in the summer, J.K. Rowling said that transgender ideology could lead to the erasure of womanhood as we know it by denying the basic biological functions that differentiate women from men. “If sex isn’t real, there’s no same-sex attraction. If sex isn’t real, the lived reality of women globally is erased. I know and love trans people, but erasing the concept of sex removes the ability of many to meaningfully discuss their lives. It isn’t hate to speak the truth,” she tweeted.
Following her post, Rowling faced severe social media backlash, prompting “Harry Potter” stars Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Rupert Grint and “Fantastic Beasts” star Eddie Redmayne to publicly declare their support for the trans movement. As criticism mounted, Rowling penned an <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/rowling-pens-essay-defending-herself-against-trans-blowback-i-refuse-to-bow-down">essay</a> about her experiences as a survivor of both sexual assault and domestic violence and argued that the concept of men becoming women erases womanhood entirely.
“It isn’t enough for women to be trans allies,” she wrote. “Women must accept and admit that there is no material difference between trans women and themselves. But, as many women have said before me, ‘woman’ is not a costume. ‘Woman’ is not an idea in a man’s head. ‘Woman’ is not a pink brain, a liking for Jimmy Choos, or any of the other sexist ideas now somehow touted as progressive.”
On Monday the hashtag #RIPJKRowling began trending on Twitter in response to the news that her new book will center on a cross-dressing serial killer.
&#8220;According to the first review of the new mystery novel, the story&#8217;s antagonist is a male serial killer who wears dresses as he hunts and dupes his victims, who are women,&#8221; reported <a href="https://www.insider.com/jk-rowlings-book-features-a-cross-dressing-male-serial-killer-2020-9#:~:text=JK%20Rowling's%20new%20book%20features%20a%20male%20serial%20killer%20that,a%20man%20in%20a%20dress.%22">Insider</a>. &#8220;<a href="https://www.telegraph.co.uk/books/what-to-read/troubled-blood-robert-galbraith-review-jk-rowling-fails-strike/" data-analytics-module="body_link" data-analytics-post-depth="40">Jake Kerridge of The Telegraph wrote</a> the novel&#8217;s &#8216;moral seems to be: never trust a man in a dress.'&#8221;
