Subject: Hollywood Virtue Signaling: Leftist Stars Attack ICE, President At Golden Globes
The 2026 Golden Globes served as the latest backdrop for Hollywood?s
elite to signal their leftist virtues and air their grievances against President Donald Trump?s enforcement of immigration law. Following the shooting death of anti-ICE activist Renee Good during a confrontation
with ICE agents ? an incident the administration maintains was self-
defense ? the red carpet on Sunday transformed into a sea of ?Be Good?
and ?ICE OUT? pins.
Leading the charge was perpetual activist Mark Ruffalo. Known more for
his left-wing rants than his recent filmography, Ruffalo leveraged the spotlight to claim he is ?terrorized and scared? by the current state
of the country. ?What I?m seeing here happening is not America,?
Ruffalo declared, apparently forgetting that border enforcement and the
rule of law are, in fact, foundational to the American experiment.
Comedian Wanda Sykes didn?t mince words either, abandoning humor to
call for the total dismantling of the executive branch?s enforcement
arm. ?We need to be out there and shut this rogue government down
because it?s just awful what they?re doing to people,? Sykes told
Variety. It?s a familiar refrain from the Hollywood set: characterize
federal agents as ?rogue? while ignoring the complex, often dangerous realities of immigration enforcement.
Jean Smart, fresh off a win for Hacks, took the stage to lean into the ?citizen and mom? defense. While acknowledging that the public finds
celebrity politicking ?annoying,? she couldn?t resist. Smart said, ?I
feel like we?re kind of at a turning point in this country. I hope
people can keep their heads because that?s actually, really the hardest
thing, I think, is to keep our heads. It?s going to take a lot of
courage and concerns, but I think that?s important.?
?I know that there are people who find it annoying when actors take opportunities to talk about social and political things, but I?m not
here right now speaking as an actor. I?m here speaking as a citizen and
a mom, and I hope people understand that,? she continued.
She urged the audience to ?do the right thing? ? a vague platitude
that, in the context of her ?ICE OUT? pin, clearly meant opposing the administration?s mandate.
Backed by the ACLU and various leftist ?grassroots? organizers, these
stars utilized their platforms to cast ICE as a source of ?chaos.? As
usual, the gala served as a reminder that for Hollywood, ?being good?
is synonymous with being anti-Trump, regardless of the facts on the
ground.

Democrats and the liberal media hate President Trump more than they
