SoldierofLove Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 (edited) Some of Hollywood's brightest stars headlined a fundraiser for U.S. President Joe Biden that took in a record US$30 million-plus for a Democratic candidate. George Clooney, Julia Roberts and Barbra Streisand were among those who took the stage at the 7,100-seat Peacock Theater in Los Angeles on Saturday night. Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel interviewed Biden and former U.S. president Barack Obama, who both stressed the need to defeat former U.S. president Donald Trump in a race that's expected to be exceedingly close. Luminaries from the entertainment world have increasingly lined up to help Biden's campaign, and just how important the event was to his reelection bid could be seen in Biden's decision to fly through the night across nine time zones, from the G7 summit in southern Italy to Southern California, to attend. He also missed a summit in Switzerland about ways to end Russia's war in Ukraine. A group of protesters angry about the Biden's administration's handling of Israel's war against Hamas in Gaza demonstrated nearby. https://www.ctvnews.ca/mobile/world/clooney-and-roberts-help-biden-raise-us-30-million-plus-at-a-star-studded-hollywood-gala-1.6928891 But I thought George Clooney wasn't happy about the Biden admin's reaction to Amal's involvement on recommending the ICC to arrest Netanyahu.

Communion Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 (edited) Beyonce also performed a star-studded concert for Hillary on election day in 2016. The problem was the voters she needed were in Wisconsin and not Columbus, Ohio. Money (sadly? thankfully?) can't buy votes so hopefully some of those celebs whispered to Joe that genocide is bad.
