Once one of the funniest men in film and television, Dick Van Dyke has become a much less jovial figure in his old age. The actor, who will soon turn 99, has long been a vocal critic of President Donald Trump, but that trend took an especially dark turn when reporters caught up with him shortly after Trump’s big Election Day win. As the Daily Mail reported: The Mary Poppins star – who was seen with wife Arlene Silver, 52 – was asked: ‘Does the future look bright for America?’ to which he responded: ‘I hope you’re right!’ He was then asked: ‘Do you think Donald Trump is capable of making America great again?’ Van Dyke quipped that he would rather die than endure another Trump term, saying: ‘Fortunately I won’t be around to experience the four years.’ His remarks sparked some social media reactions: Can’t they just shut up? They destroy their legacy with this crap. — Serena Brown (@SerenaJB3) November 12, 2024 RIP Dick Van Dyke.. pic.twitter.com/N0yYt2gdTV — Maria Leah (@maria_leah385) November 14, 2024 I would think at his age, you don’t invite karma over for brunch. — Liz (@Liz41525875) November 14, 2024 Ahead of the 2016 election, Van Dyke made his leftist politics clear by supporting Bernie Sanders, as Newsweek reported at the time: Ninety-year-old actor Dick Van Dyke, a Sanders supporter, is happy to buck the trend. “People in my generation are set in their ways,” Van Dyke said in an interview. “Some people are afraid he might get a little too drastic, that he might do something to upset the apple cart.” Sanders, not known for his sense of humor, has also attracted a number of comedians as supporters, including Danny DeVito, Bill Maher and Sarah Silverman. Here’s a clip of Van Dyke’s remarks just days before Election Day earlier this month:  

President Trump has selected Steven Cheung, his 2024 campaign spokesperson, as his communications director in the White House. Cheung was key in President Trump’s landslide victory on November 5. Before being Trump’s campaign spokesperson, Cheung served as  UFC’s communications professional. He also worked on several Republican campaigns before his stint with the UFC.

Cheung has been a near constant presence at Trump’s side and a key member of his tight-knit presidential campaign, run by Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita. Trump, who likes to surround himself with political fighters, leaned on Cheung, a former communications professional at the Ultimate Fighting Championship, to send out slashing statements that reflected his boss’ penchant for wielding rhetoric like a political knife. Cheung kept a low profile during the campaign, but his statements on behalf of the former president were sharp and sometimes shocking. They were part of Trump’s slash-and-burn strategy in the GOP primary, including his early takedown of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. Cheung, 42, was raised by Chinese immigrant parents in California and went on to work for several Republican campaigns before joining the UFC, and then, Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign. After Trump won, he went to the White House as special assistant to the president and assistant communications director. After working on Trump’s 2020 reelection, he consulted on several high profile GOP campaigns before once again joining Trump’s 2024 team.

Kamala Harris is under fire for reportedly paying Oprah Winfrey $1 million in campaign cash to appear at a Philadelphia Town Hall. The left-leaning Chicago Tribune reported the Harris campaign paid Oprah Winfrey’s production company two payments of $500,000. Winfrey denied receiving any money from the campaign for a speakers fee, but the Chicago Tribune noted “that the money went to her Harpo Productions, once famously headquartered in Chicago’s West Loop and now based in West Hollywood.” The Chicago Tribune reported, “It’s true that production workers need to be paid and that’s fair enough; they’re not donors.” The outlet added, “And, frankly, $1 million is not all that much to Winfrey and so we very much doubt that she was seeking any kind of personal payday from her chosen candidate. But she does own Harpo and serves as its chairwoman and CEO. The production fees should have been a campaign donation.” NEW: Chicago Tribune Editorial Board takes aim at Oprah over her company accepting $1M from the Harris campaign, as revealed by me in @dcexaminer “It’s true that production workers need to be paid and that’s fair enough; they’re not donors. And, frankly, $1 million is not all… pic.twitter.com/uD7DpMlnb5 — Gabe Kaminsky (@gekaminsky) November 15, 2024 Here’s what Fox News reported: The Chicago Tribune criticized Vice President Kamala Harris’ failed presidential campaign for reportedly paying out campaign cash to celebrities like Oprah Winfrey. “Having someone with a large following simply stand next to a candidate at a podium and say a few words, solo, is one thing; doing a whole livestreamed event with, say, Oprah Winfrey, is another,” the Chicago Tribune wrote in an editorial following reports that the Harris campaign paid Winfrey and other celebrities massive sums for campaign events. FEC filings show the Harris campaign made two $500,000 payments to Winfrey’s production company, first reported by the Washington Examiner, on Oct. 15, a month after Winfrey appeared with Harris at a town hall event and weeks before Winfrey was on stage with Harris at a Philadelphia rally before Election Day. “Winfrey this week found herself having to deny that the campaign had paid her a ‘personal fee’ of $1 million following some media scrutiny of the public accounting of campaign expenses, saying instead that the money went to her Harpo Productions, once famously headquartered in Chicago’s West Loop and now based in West Hollywood,” the editorial board wrote. “It’s true that production workers need to be paid and that’s fair enough; they’re not donors,” the board added. “And, frankly, $1 million is not all that much to Winfrey and so we very much doubt that she was seeking any kind of personal payday from her chosen candidate.

The TV star addressed the speculation, and the controversy that followed it, on Instagram on Wednesday, shutting down all claims that she took any money from Harris’ team and insisting that she “was not paid a dime.” “Usually I am reluctant to respond to rumors in general, but these days I realize that if you don’t stop a lie, it just gets bigger,” Winfrey wrote. “I was not paid a dime. My time and energy was my way of supporting the campaign.” Although Winfrey, 70, did not accept a “personal fee” for hosting a town hall event with Vice President Harris in September, she explained that her production company, Harpo Productions, did receive a payment from the campaign to cover the costs of setting up the event. “For the live-streaming event in September, my production company Harpo was asked to bring in set design, lights, cameras, microphones, crew, producers, and every other item necessary (including the benches and chairs we sat on) to put on a live production,” she continued.
