Supporters Turn On Mamdani For Slipping In Homeless Shelter Under Their Noses
'Don't want to live with the consequences'
'Shut the f**k up!' Actor Jamie Kennedy slams Hollywood's hypocrisy over ICE
Celebrities should not be claiming they live under fascism while attending a film festival with a private security detail, actor Jamie Kennedy stated this week.
Kennedy, a staple in Hollywood who has starred in the "Scream" franchise and made appearances in hit shows like "Entourage," called out Hollywood celebrities over their constant description of the United States as an authoritarian state.
'Let's adhere to the laws of what we have, right? Get rid of criminals.'
Kennedy hopped on to Tuesday's episode of the "Trying Not To Die" podcast hosted by Jack Osbourne, son of late rockstar Ozzy Osbourne.
A self-proclaimed "tired" Kennedy said he has become fed up with Hollywood elites preaching against Immigration and Customs Enforcement from exotic locations.
"People are protesting ICE. OK. And I understand the situation is, it's a crazy situation. But when you have actors from the red carpet of an award show at the Beverly Hilton — I'm talking about all of them — and they're on there saying all of this stuff about, 'We're under a fascist regime. We're in authoritarianism,' bro!" Kennedy exclaimed in disbelief. "It's insanity."
Kennedy pointed to celebrities at film festivals who are heckling from behind the safety of armed guards.
"You can't say you're under authoritarian rule when you're literally being authoritarian. You can't say from the f**king back of, like, 20 MMA Secret Service agents that are protecting you."
Osbourne jumped in, adding that if the celebrities were actually living under "an authoritarian government," they "wouldn't be able to say" their piece.

The 55-year-old Kennedy begged celebrities to "get on the front lines" and away from the Sundance Film Festival if they care so much about current events. He was likely referencing Hollywood elites making extreme statements about ICE in January, which included actor Edward Norton comparing the agency to the "gestapo."
The Sundance attendees even broke from their festivities for a 10-minute protest at one point.
"You're protesting the people that are trying to, in theory, they're basically just trying to get rid of the criminals. Is it a perfect system? No! But I'm not there. But basically, let's adhere to the laws of what we have, right? Get rid of criminals."
Kennedy wondered how certain celebrities could justify calling the police when they are in danger since they are consistently denigrating law enforcement.
"What I'm just saying is, like, people haven't got a taste of the whole world to understand how good we have it in this country," Kennedy added. He then asked celebrities to "shut the f**k up!"
Immigration and documentation
Citing a recent poll, Osbourne said that over 60% of Americans are in favor of how ICE is operating, in spite of what "the news is throwing" at them. "It's definitely more than that," Osbourne said, revealing the polling was from a left-wing source.
After showcasing extensive knowledge in law enforcement and firearms, Osbourne came out against illegal immigration, saying "absolutely" to the idea that a swath of criminals were let in during the Biden administration, when millions of immigrants poured across the border illegally.
Osbourne, originally from London, said he did not think it was fair for illegal immigrants to skip the process he and others have gone through. This included a lengthy visa process, 10 years with a green card, and a citizenship test, he explained.

Hollywood homeless
The two men spent significant time discussing the conditions of Los Angeles and Hollywood, particularly as it pertains to taxation and homelessness.
"There's not just bodies in the street, bro. It looks like they're dead," Kennedy explained, adding that he has seen people using heroin in broad daylight.
"We have to use common sense because the psychos have taken over," he said.
Osbourne shared his own stories, saying that his children go to a school that is mere feet from a homeless encampment under a bridge that he has complained about numerous times. The podcaster was baffled at the conditions near the school due to the sheer amount he pays in taxes.
"No one's going to change," he said of California's elites. "And it comes down to the fires. Didn't the fires teach you that?"
Osbourne then offered the following conclusion about woke celebrities: "Half these people at the f**king awards, all their houses burned to the ground because of f**king stupid people in charge," yet they are still playing along.

Report: Radical Leftist Groups Perpetuate Homeless Crisis For Their Own Benefit
The industrial homelessness complex, in many cases, has used advocacy for the homeless as a front for all kinds of radical causes.Watch: 'Homeless Mickey Mouse,' crack smoke, and feces ravage streets of New York City
Zohran Mamdani, Democratic candidate for New York City's mayoral race, once suggested "the abolition of property" as a solution to homelessness. By the looks of downtown NYC, the communist visionary is going to need to seize a lot of property to achieve that goal if he gets elected.
A casual walk down the streets of Midtown Manhattan reveals a city ravaged by homelessness, illegal immigration, and drug abuse. With chaos as far as the eye can see, prospective visitors to the Big Apple will be shocked to witness the state of the sanctuary city.
'This guy was laying in his own crap in the middle of Times Square.'
As captured by independent reporter Oren Levy, the "harsh reality" that most ignore in the heart of the city is the insurmountable number of homeless people on the streets.
Not only are there thousands sleeping outdoors, but in 2025, the migrant and homeless crisis means sleeping on cardboard boxes or directly on the pavement in the middle of the sidewalk.
"Homeless individuals sleeping on the streets, using newspapers to clean themselves, openly injecting drugs and smoking crack — all happening all day and night," Levy wrote on X. "This is the state of New York City, and no one wants to talk about it."

The investigative reporter has worked in the city for years, breaking stories about violent illegal aliens and child trafficking by gangs like Venezuela's Tren de Aragua.
Levy says he witnesses new evidence of the city's decay on a daily basis. For example, earlier this week, he saw a "homeless Mickey Mouse," an individual in a dress, wearing a Mickey Mouse mascot head, passed out alongside some luggage between two plants, outside.
"That was a first. I thought I was tripping when I saw that," Levy told Blaze News.
The rampant homelessness "shocks" tourists, the reporter said, and businesses are at their wits' end over the matter.
"It's a bad look for the city. Business and building owners have had enough too — this crisis has dragged on for years with no real solution. While migrants are placed in hotels and private rooms, our own homeless are left behind," Levy added.

Levy followed the mayor's office closely in 2023 and 2024, and originally thought Mayor Eric Adams had his hands tied when it came to the city's illegal immigration and sanctuary city laws. While the mayor said it was up to city council to change the city's status, Levy later found out the mayor did possess the power to make necessary changes but declined to do so.
"If the mayor really wanted to change parts of the sanctuary city law, he can easily do so by adding it to the Charter Revision Commission and therefore bypass city council," Levy explained.
As a result of inaction, Levy believes the streets have spiraled out of control and rival San Francisco in terms of literal filth. Look no further than a video from Tuesday, where Levy witnessed a homeless man laying in and wiping his own feces while on the street.
"This guy was laying in his own crap in the middle of Times Square NYC and yes he was also [wiping] his butt," Levy wrote on X.
Levy also hopes New Yorkers "wake up" before November's mayoral election, when Mamdani (D), Mayor Adams (I), former Gov. Andrew Cuomo (I), and Curtis Sliwa (R) go head to head for control of the city.
However, the New Yorker does not believe Mamdani will end the homelessness crisis with his "far-left agenda."
"Mamdani is anti-Israel, a socialist, and wants to replace cops with social workers," Levy insisted.
"It will not end well."
