Although my film recently earned an Outstanding Achievement award from the Massachusetts Independent Film Festival, there are other things today that I want to address because they are bothering me...I'm losing sleep over it.
It's time that we as business leaders harshly criticize Trump and his dogs for human rights abuses and for breaking the law. Specifically, he is illegally sending people to a prison in El Salvador (and paying tax-payer dollars), the same prison known for abusing its prisoners. If you voted for Trump, you know he ran on following the law. Well, he himself just violated the law, OPENLY AND EXPLICITLY (as if you expected anything different). He has ignored Federal judges' orders and recently gave the middle finger to the United States Supreme Court. The U.S. SUPREME COURT! That court is stacked w/ Trump worshipers, and yet even they realize the danger, so they UNANIMOUSLY ordered Trump to return an innocent bystander to the U.S.
And yet Trump laughed, and even suggested that he should start sending United States Citizens to that same jail.
I am the son of a woman who suffered under the Pinochet dictatorship. I will openly tell you my family story if you ask. My mom was given a choice by the regime: run away, or DIE. She obviously ran - or I wouldn't have been born a few years later. She came to the U.S., the heart of the beast. (The U.S. Gov. actually helped the Chilean coup plotters and for many years sent millions of dollars to Pinochet. If you don't believe me, GOOGLE IT. Read the unclassified CIA documents!)
I know all the tricks that dictators use. And Trump is using them all. (BTW, Hi**er started by deporting Jews...Sound familiar?)
Trump is ignoring legal president AND all the laws. I mean, telling the U.S. Supreme Court to f... off was so bad even his Republican dogs are starting to take note. He literally ILLEGALLY deported an INNOCENT man with ZERO evidence of ANY CRIME, and yet REFUSES to bring him back, and even laughs about it. He's arresting people for speaking out against him.
I reject Trump and everything he has done since 2016. EVERYTHING. He is a lawless dictator who only cares about himself. He is the laughing stock of the world. Make no mistake: I support the Palestinian cause of peace and freedom, as well as the Jewish cause for peace in the Middle East. I reject his backward tariffs. I welcome ALL immigrants no matter their legal or illegal status. I applaud CHINA for standing up to Trump the BULLY. In fact, they're being nice. I reject all ICE agents. I reject the Hi**er-loving Musk.
