I'm done': MAGA actor James Woods says he's no longer a Republican
Source: Raw Story · Bias: Far Left
Summary
Far-right actor James Woods announced on X Friday that he is leaving the Republican Party — because Republicans in Congress aren't willing to be aggressive enough in support of President Donald Trump and his conspiracy theories.The catalyst for Woods' anger appears to be a far-right account that posted a video from Lindell TV of Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) complaining that the House GOP refused to sign on to her subpoena to pursue racist conspiracy theories against Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN). “I tried to subpoena her immigration records, her brother husband's immigration records, and IT WAS REPUBLICANS that killed my motion,” she said in the clip.Republicans, going all the way up to Trump, have long latched onto an unsubstantiated rumor, first posted to a Somali-American diaspora internet forum years ago, that Omar's ex-husband was actually her brother, and their marriage was a fraudulent scheme to grant him citizenship.The GOP's lack of interest in pursuing Mace's subpoena, combined with Trump's flagship voter suppression bill being stalled in the Senate, appears to have been the final straw for Woods."I am done with the Republican Party," wrote Woods. "Between this and Thune’s refusal to pass the SAVE Act, I’m done with these uniparty traitors. I’m changing my party affiliation to Independent. No wonder President Trump is fighting an uphill battle every day."Woods, who featured in "Salvador" and "Casino" and was the voice of Hades in Disney's "Hercules," has long said his outspoken support of Trump has ended his career in Hollywood, with his talent agent dropping him over political disagreements in 2018.
