Saturday Night Live (SNL) star Chloe Fineman slammed Elon Musk in a since-deleted TikTok video, accusing the billionaire businessman of making her cry.

Fineman’s video came amid Musk’s criticism of the show in which he was parodied last week The skit saw Dana Carvey appear as the Tesla owner and supporter of Donald Trump – a clip which prompted Musk to say SNL had been “dying slowly.”

In response to Musk’s backlash, Fineman said she had seen “some news article about Elon Musk being butt hurt about ‘SNL’ and his impression” on the show. Referring to the X owner’s criticism, Fineman added, “I’m like, ‘You’re clearly watching the show. Like, what are you talking about?’”

Musk hosted the show in May 2021, and Fineman accused him of being the “awful” SNL host who made “multiple cast members cry”.

“And I’m like, you know what? I’m gonna come out and say at long last that I’m the cast member that he made cry. And he’s the host that made someone cry. Maybe there’s others,” Fineman continued. “But I’m like, no, if you’re gonna go on your platform and be rude, like, guess what? You made I, Chloe Fineman, burst into tears because I stayed up all night writing the sketch.”

Musk was reportedly unimpressed with Fineman’s sketch at the time, although it would later make it to the airwaves.

Musk has since weighed in to state that he didn’t find any of the sketches he read funny.

Frankly, it was only on the Thursday before the Saturday that ANY of the sketches generated laughs. I was worried.

I was like damn my SNL appearance is going to be so fucking unfunny that it will make a crackhead sober!!

But then it worked out in the end 😮‍💨…

Needless to say, her attempts for sympathy were dismissed on social media.

She's a professional comedy writer who cries when someone doesn't think her jokes are funny? That's funny.

"I stayed up all night writing this skit."

Well, sounds like you should invest in a time-management course. Especially, since the product output was crap.

Elon making a female comic cry by telling her she isn’t funny is the funniest thing I’ve ever read 😂😂😂 king.

Others said they had little time for Fineman’s complaints.

Who cares! She cried… oohhhh, scary Elon

"Elon made me cry 4 years ago" What a complete moron! Here's an idea. How about you act like a grown up?

And Elon didn’t have any to offer her either.

Seriously 😐

George Clooney, the Oscar-winning actor who once dismissed Donald Trump’s chances at the presidency, now finds himself under fire from his own party’s supporters after Kamala Harris’ disappointing 2024 election defeat, as reported by Daily Fetched.

Clooney’s vocal support for alternatives to President Joe Biden, especially in a critical op-ed published in The New York Times, has stirred up a hornet’s nest among liberals, who are now pointing fingers his way for the recent loss.

At 63, Clooney has been a dedicated advocate for the Democratic Party, contributing both time and money. In fact, he helped raise a staggering $30 million for Biden’s re-election campaign, only to openly question Biden’s viability shortly after.

His call for new Democratic leadership just months before the election is now being widely blamed for sparking doubts within the party. An insider close to Clooney revealed, “George feels that the backlash he is getting for Kamala losing is not at all warranted. He thinks it’s completely unfair to try and make him a scapegoat for her loss.”

🚨🇺🇸GEORGE CLOONEY: F*CK POLITICS – I'M OUT

Clooney is reportedly stepping away from politics after feeling like the “scapegoat” for Kamala's loss to Trump.

Clooney’s recent struggles with the party have left him contemplating a step back from political involvement. According to the same source, he’s feeling “very disheartened,” particularly after investing so heavily in the party’s goals and witnessing the swift backlash after the election.

Speculation around Clooney’s op-ed further heightened when rumors suggested that former President Barack Obama might have ghostwritten or heavily influenced his words.

While Politico noted that Obama didn’t explicitly encourage Clooney to speak out, he reportedly did nothing to stop it, creating an air of suspicion around their partnership. But whether or not Obama was involved, the larger story is clear: Hollywood’s political clout is rapidly fading.

This incident has forced a spotlight on the effectiveness of celebrity endorsements. Even paying high-profile figures like Oprah Winfrey millions to endorse candidates seems increasingly futile when core policy issues—such as gun rights, free speech, and economic concerns—hold much greater sway over voters.

As Clooney prepares to pull back from his once-enthusiastic political role, he faces the reality that Hollywood’s sway over politics may not be as powerful as it once was.

Despite the millions spent and the famous faces brought forward, the loss of Harris in the 2024 race seems to have spotlighted a deeper disconnect between the entertainment industry’s values and the everyday concerns of American voters.

The Michigan Supreme Court expanded its liberal majority in 2024, with the help of massive cash infusions from billionaires including George Soros, dark money groups, and Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson.

Dark money groups not required to disclose donors contributed more than $5 million to help elect incumbent Justice Kyra Harris Bolden and law professor Kimberly Ann Thomas to the state’s highest court, an amount that exceeds the total raised by all four candidates for the two seats by more than $1 million, Bridge Michigan reports. The donations included nearly $4.4 million through mid-October from a shady Massachusetts-based nonprofit called The Justice Project Action, the largest donor to Supreme Court candidates this year.

Those donations went to a Justice For All super PAC backing Bolden and Thomas that has spent nearly $10.7 million on Democratic nominees to the high court since 2020. In 2024, $5.25 million out of $7.9 million raised by Justice For All came from dark money groups, which also included the Michigan Civic Action Fund and the Strategic Victory Fund. Other funding included $1 million from former billionaire New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, and $560,000 from the George Soros funded super PAC State Victory Action, according to Bridge’s review of campaign finance records through mid-October.

Oprah Winfrey‘s production banner, Harpo Productions, has publicly denied that the Kamala Harris campaign paid the billionaire TV host a $1 Million fee despite records from Federal Election Commission filings showing otherwise.

A Harpo spokesperson told Variety, “The campaign paid for the production costs of ‘Unite for America,’ a live-streaming event that took place September 19 outside Detroit, Michigan.”

“Oprah Winfrey was at no point during the campaign paid a personal fee, nor did she receive a fee from Harpo,” the spokesperson added.

Oprah was also confronted by a reporter about the payments.

“Not true,” Oprah quipped when confronted by the reporter. “I was paid nothing, ever.”

The Oprah denies receiving $1 million from the Harris campaign to "endorse" Kamala Harris.

Campaign finance records show that her studio, Harpo Productions, was paid $1 million by the Harris campaign.

A recent Washington Examiner article, titled “How Kamala Harris plowed through $1 billion,” cited federal findings showing that Harris’s campaign “paid more than $15 million” to companies for expenses related to “event production.”

$1 million from those expenses went to Oprah Winfrey’s Harpo Productions, the outlet reported.

Harpo Productions failed to disclose how much the Harris campaign paid for the production costs related to the a virtual town dubbed “Unite for America” which featured Meryl Streep, Chris Rock, Ben Stiller, Tracee Ellis Ross, and Julia Roberts.

Other celebrity endorsements include:

• Megan Thee Stallion: Paid $5 Million
• Beyoncé: Paid $10 million
• Lizzo: Paid $1 Million

After plowing millions into celebrity endorsements, the Harris campaign was left in $20 million in debt.

Trump Derangement Syndrome sufferers are being offered a four-year residential cruise to avoid the next four years under the 47th President.

The Tour La Vie program, offered by Villa Vie Residences, gives rich liberals the chance to visit over 140 countries while avoiding the US so they don’t have to face political reality.

Mikael Petterson, the company’s chief executive officer, said, “We came up with this marketing campaign before we even knew who would win. Regardless of who would have won, you would have half of the population upset.”

“Quite frankly, we don’t have a political view one way or the other. We just wanted to give people who feel threatened to have a way to get out.”

However, escaping Trump doesn’t come cheap.

The Tour La Vie program starts at $40,000 per year, offering four different packages for raging leftists to escape:

• “Escape from Reality” for a year
• “Mid-term Selection” for two years
• “Everywhere but Home” for three years
• The full experience to “Skip Forward” at four years

The “Skip Forward” option costs $256,000 for single occupancy or $320,000 for two, according to the company’s website.

Meanwhile, the one-year cruise is significantly cheaper, at $80,000 for singles or $50,000 per person for more.

That first package could be the best option when TDS finally realize Donald Trump is fixing America, not destroying it.

The company has already reported a “huge uptick” in ticket inquiries and expects to sell out 

Travelers will still be able to cast their votes while on board for the midterms and presidential election in 2028, with mail sent to the corporate office and then to the ship.

“They didn’t want to talk to one another,” Petterson said.

“They wanted to stay away from one another. At the end of the day everyone there isn’t there to talk politics. They actually have similar lifestyles. There weren’t any sort of issues or anything.”

Petterson said the cruise attracts “distinct groups” from retirees to semi-retired and digital nomads.

“It’s really cool how the community, old and young are coming together,” Petterson said.

“I think the world cruising market is growing and growing and having the ability to completely disconnect from the world and still be connected with our internet and Wi-Fi and invite your friends on board,” Petterson said.

“It really helps your ability to really live this lifestyle and still stay connected with your friends and family.”

A second Trump term with thousands of raging TDS sufferers fleeing the country sounds good to me.

CNN data analyst Harry Enten said President Donald Trump‘s massive gains with certain groups in the 2024 election were much worse than a knockout blow for Democrats.

While Democrats suffered meltdowns following their historic loss, Enten said they haven’t fully grasped how bad it was for them.

Enten broke down the numbers, showing how significant Trump’s victory was.

Enten explained how Trump made the greatest improvements over a previous presidential election performance from Republicans since 1992.

“When was the last time a party gained in so many different places?” he asked.

“You have to go all the way back to 1992 when Bill Clinton improved on Michael Dukakis’ performance in 49 states, plus the District of Columbia.”

Enten continued to marvel at Trump’s epic win.

“Donald Trump’s performance on Tuesday was the best for a Republican presidential candidate in exit poll history.”

“He literally goes all the way back through history and breaks history.”

According to Enten’s chart, Trump improved his party’s election performance in 49 states and Washington, D.C., over the 2020 election.

“You know, I think the breadth of the improvement that Donald Trump had – Holy Toledo!”

Earlier this week, CNNs Jake Tapper admitted Trump’s election victory was the “greatest comeback in history.”

“It is hard to think of a political comeback that is actually more significant than this one. I’m tempted to say Richard Nixon, but that really falls short of what Donald Trump has achieved.”

Maxine Waters joined a growing number of Democrats attempting to blame “racism” on Kamala Harris‘s devastating defeat in the U.S. presidential election against Donald Trump.

Some have even gone as far as to blame sexism too!

For years, Waters has been dividing Americans with her race-baiting politics, with everything from inciting violence against Trump supporters to dividing America with her “white supremacy” narrative.

During an appearance on News Nation with Chris Cuomo, Waters was asked, “What lesson should your party have learned?”

Waters responded:  “The Democratic Party worked very hard; they raised a substantial sum of money, and we had great candidates.”

“Trump had a following generally led by white males. White males voted in big numbers.”

“He had a few from the other race groups that joined, like the Latinos at 45 percent, and black men at about the same rate that they did when they voted for him before at about 20 percent, and that combination won.”

“It’s not that Democrats did not work hard and did not do a great job. We had an unusual situation where we had a black woman, which this country has never seen before.”

“A combination of all these things led to his [Trump’s] win.”

Chris Cuomo responded: “I will not push back on the idea that race and sex matter in America and politics; I think they do.”

“I don’t know if that is the controlling variable, and you don’t suggest otherwise. To me, it seems to be that the Democrats thought ‘Trump stinks’ is enough.”

“Senator Bernie Sanders said something that reminded me of you: The Democratic Party used to be, ‘We are all about doing for working people; that’s what we do.’

“You are now seen as not that, even by Bernie Sanders.”

A Democratic majority in the Michigan House flipped on Tuesday to an even bigger majority for Republicans, setting the table for the GOP to investigate Democratic malfeasance next year. Michigan Republicans broke a two-year Democratic government trifecta on Election Day by holding on to seats occupied by vulnerable House Republicans and flipping four seats held by Democrats.

In Michigan House District 27, Republican Rylee Linting leads Democratic incumbent Jamie Churches 51.6%-48.4% with 95% of votes counted, while Republican Ron Robinson holds a seven-point lead over Democratic incumbent Nate Shannon in District 58 with 91.83% of the vote in, the Detroit Free Press reports. Republican Steve Frisbie leads Democratic incumbent Jim Haadsma by 19.4% with just 25.81% of the vote counted in District 44. Democratic incumbent Jenn Hill is also poised to fall to Republican Karl Bohnak in District 109, where Bohnak leads 51.3%-48.7% with 99% of the vote in.

The situation is expected to shift Democrats’ 56-54 majority in the lower chamber to a 58-52 majority for Republicans, according to projections by The Detroit News.

The View isn’t usually worth watching – it’s a left-wing whinefest commandeered by Whoopi Goldberg and other women who don’t like America and offer practically nothing with their mindless commentary.

The Wednesday, Nov. 6 edition though was spectacular. After months of promoting how Kamala Harris was going to win, The View was forced to accept reality, otherwise known as the result of the 2024 Presidential Election. And they couldn’t even blame the electoral college this time.

It began with Goldberg asking, “How we do we feel?” to the panel, most of whom dressed as if they were attending a funeral.

Today’s unforgettable episode of ABC’s The View opened up with a teary-eyed Whoopi Goldberg and a miserable-looking Joy Behar admitting defeat.

There was some acceptance though, particularly from grifter Alyssa Farah Griffin.

“I didn’t expect it to be this resounding,” she said. “And I think there are some lessons from it.” Not like anyone at the panel will bother to learn the lessons, of course.

Political commentator Alyssa Farah Griffin followed Behar’s melancholy comments, describing Trump’s massive, crushing victory as “beyond Reagan.”

“I didn’t expect it to be this resounding,” she said with astonishment. “And I think there are some lessons from it.”

The meltdowns soon began though, with Sunny Hostin resorting to “cultural resentment” as a reason why the Democrats lost.

Goldberg went fully unhinged, offering a view of Trump that wizards in the Harry Potter series share of Lord Voldemort, because she apparently hasn’t read a book in the past two decades.

Speaking like a true sore loser, Whoopi Goldberg openly disrespected Trump supporters by refusing to say his name, vowing never to speak it again.

Sadly, all good things must come to an end. The View closed out with a bang with a public admittance of a detest for the First Amendment.

Is U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg angling to replace Gov. Gretchen Whitmer? It’s a question the former mayor of South Bend, Ind., has repeatedly faced since moving to Michigan with his husband in 2020, two years before Democrats secured a government trifecta for the first time in 40 years.

So far, his silence is speaking louder than his words. “Pete Buttigieg refuses to rule out running for Michigan governor in 2026 – AP,” NewsWire recently posted to X. The move to Michigan transpired a year after Buttigieg and his husband Chasten adopted newborn twins, with a Buttigieg spokesperson telling the Detroit Free Press “moving to Chasten’s hometown of Traverse City allowed them to be closer to his parents, which became especially important to them after they adopted their twins, often relying on Chasten’s parents for help with child care.”

But there’s other political benefits in the battleground state of Michigan that simply aren’t available to a liberal Democrat in Indiana. After a failed presidential run in 2020, the Intelligencer noted Buttigieg had few options in The Hoosier State. “Whatever the personal benefits and the spousal connection, moving to Michigan also happens to place Buttigieg in a red-hot battleground state whose current Democratic governor and two U.S. senators may not stay in their current jobs forever,” the Intelligencer’s Ed Kilgore opined in 2022. “In deep-red Indiana, there was no obvious avenue for higher office for a guy like Buttigieg, which is probably a major reason he ran for president in 2020 instead of climbing a ladder that really wasn’t there.”
