John Leguizamo just hit Dean Cain with a healthy dose of Kryptonite.
On Wednesday, Cain announced that he would be joining ICE ASAP as part of President Donald Trumps mass anti-immigration campaign. Its a move that many, including the Colombia-born Leguizamo, have taken to task.
Leguizamo, a Tony- and Emmy-winning actor and comedian, went on Instagram Friday to share some choice words for the former Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman star.
What kind of loser volunteers to be an ICE officer? Leguizamo asked. What a moron. Dean Cain, your pronouns are Has/Been.

(114,683 posts)really liking him back then and have been really happy to see all he has done since--including his pieces on Latino culture in cities around the US. I missed the one for DENVER and am hoping Peacock will have it for streaming.
Glad to see him give Cain-- this total waste of cellular matter-- the embarrassing blowback that he deserves.

Real 'Stephen' style grovelling, imo. What a pathetically self -loathing way to seek validation.
Quick. Somebody hand this guy the Tim Scott award.

(53,550 posts)It is kind of sad, as if by joining the racists, they won't be the target of racism. In a sense, they could become something worse.

(8,857 posts)the fascists and supremacists won't be trying too hard to sort it out. As some Trump supporters have already discovered.
(But shhhhh... don't tell Tim, Kash, and Candace. Let it be a surprise.)

Oh well, hopefully they like surprises!

You can tell Im a little in awe of him. I was nine in 1978 when he became Superman. No one else has ever even come close.

(77,795 posts)I suppose somebody else might watch-disapproval/hate. There are some things I completely block out - kneejerk MAGAts who show no originality, who only parrot, who pose no intellectual challenge - the HANNITY, WATTERS, Michael WEINER ("Savage" ), etc. While the more dangerous ones show original deviousness intended to snare the dummies and the susceptible ones - LIMBAUGH (may he not be resting peacefully) - somebody to study the tricks of. I monitored "Tweety" (Chris MATTHEWS) for a decade, when many Dems took him at face value as being one of us, whereas my radar-for-wingnuts pinged like crazy on him.
Within all of the Democratic agenda I fully subscribe to is partaking of ideas. And partaking doesn't equate to being brainwashed - exposure doesn't infect. I don't follow this or that whomever on a worship/cult basis. As for MAHER, I see (sometimes) parts that show up on YouTube, and only the bits that show me something to agree or disagree with.

(77,795 posts)It's just that the issue between us here is the randomness of our choosing to tell each other (much of anything, insofar as I can tell).
*** ON EDIT: It's just that there are probably other (many) posts that would be more compatible with yours. Not asking for an answer as to why pick mine(?) to Reply to. EOM (completely).
