Trump Fires Back At Robert De Niro After Actor Brands Him A ‘Tyrant’ Outside Courthouse

By -

 Former President Donald Trump attacked Robert De Niro on his Truth Social platform early Wednesday, following comments the actor made during a press conference—organized by President Joe Biden’s campaign—outside the Manhattan courthouse where closing arguments in Trump’s hush money trial took place Tuesday.

In his post, Trump called the veteran Hollywood star a “wacko” and said he suffered from “an incurable case of TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME.”

The former president claimed the two-time Oscar winner’s “movies, artistry, and brand have gone WAY DOWN IN VALUE since he entered the political arena” at Biden’s behest.

Referencing De Niro’s clash with Trump supporters outside the courthouse, the former president claimed the actor “was met…with a force far greater than the Radical Left.”

Earlier on Tuesday, Trump’s account shared a clip of De Niro arguing with a group of the former president’s supporters, saying: “You are gangsters.”

Trump’s comments on Truth Social were made after the former president left the courthouse Tuesday without making any remarks.

In Tuesday’s press conference, De Niro called the former president a “clown” and said New Yorkers tolerated him “when he was just another grubby real estate hustler masquerading as a big shot…But this person can’t run the country.” The actor said Trump “wants to destroy not only the city, but the country…and eventually, he could destroy the world.” De Niro spoke about the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol and said Trump directed the mob “to do his dirty work for him.” The actor warned if Trump is reelected, he will be a “tyrant” and added: “We’d forgotten the lessons of history that showed us other clowns who weren’t taken seriously until they became vicious dictators.” In the presser organized by the Biden-Harris campaign, De Niro appeared alongside former Capitol Police officer Harry Dunn and former D.C. Metropolitan Police officer Michael Fanone, who responded to Capitol riots.

Last week, the Biden campaign released a 30-second attack ad targeting Trump, voiced by De Niro. “From midnight tweets to drinking bleach, to tear-gassing citizens and staging a photo op, we knew Trump was out of control when he was president. Then, he lost the 2020 election and snapped,” the advert said. The actor, who doesn't appear in the video, then accuses Trump of “desperately trying to hold onto power,” and running again with the intent to rule as a “dictator.” Earlier in the month, De Niro appeared on The View, but parts of the broadcast were muted to censor profanities dished out by the actor while he criticized Trump.

  The Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN) has countered the BBC documentary on the late Temitope Babatunde Joshua, known as TB Joshua, founder of SCOAN. SCOAN described the documentary against TB Joshua as unfounded, and that the characters interviewed in the report were unknown to the church. The church, in a statement signed by its Public Affairs Director, Mr Dare Adejumo, said the statement was aimed at disabusing public minds from the report. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the BBC released a highly controversial and damning documentary on the late TB Joshua on Monday, accusing him of various crimes, including rape, against some members. SCOAN said, “BBC World Services investigative unit, code-named Africa Eye, came out this week with weird and strange episodes of atrocities against the late founder of SCOAN.” It said that to investigate and publish or broadcast reports was a central kernel of journalism, but to do so outside the ethics and fundamental principles

The league announced the ban on Friday morning ... saying an investigation into the free agent revealed he had "engaged in inappropriate and offensive behavior." NBA officials called his actions "conduct detrimental to the league."

"Primo maintains that his conduct was not intentional," the league said. Dr. Hillary Cauthen , Primo's former therapist, was the first to  bring the allegations  against Primo to light after she claimed last fall that he exposed himself to her on nine separate occasions.

 Sky Sports were left red-faced after an on-screen graphic mistakenly introduced Chelsea defender Axel Disasi as Noni Madueke on Tuesday night. The pair were both the scoresheet as the Blues thrashed Middlesbrough 6-1 at Stamford Bridge in the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final to boo their place at Wembley. But when Disasi spoke to Sky Sports after the game, an on-screen graphic introduced him as Madueke instead. Madueke is four years younger than his Chelsea teammate, plays in a different role and is English, while Disasi is French.
