- Armie Hammer Reportedly Blindsided by Final Cut of Controversial Movie He Starre...
Screenshot Embattled actor Armie Hammer was reportedly blindsided by the “hateful” nature of the controversial German film in which he recently starred. Hammer was tapped to be the lead in the Uwe Boll-directed Citizen Vigilante. In the movie, Hammer plays an American man who exacts vigilante justice on criminals who somehow eluded the legal system. Citizen Vigilante largely focuses on Muslim immigrants, and one viral scene had Hammer’s character shooting and killing an unarmed family in their home. Boll has said the movie was inspired by a 2016 German case in which a group of teenage boys raped a 14-year-old girl and left her for dead. The boys received suspended sentences and walked free. Citizen Vigilante did not received a rating in Germany, effectively banning the movie in Boll’s home country. In the days since its release, the movie has been praised by some conservatives for what they perceived as anti-immigrant messaging. In response to the ban, Elon Musk even posted the entire movie on X/Twitter as a show of support. Hammer, however, seemingly had no clue what he signed up for. In a Tuesday report from Puck, a source close to the actor claimed he was misled about the true extent of the movie’s messaging. The report read: So how did Hammer feel about finally being in a film that grabbed international attention? “The first time he saw it, he was in tears,” a source in Hammer’s camp told me. And not tears of joy. “He called me and said, ‘Fuck. This is hateful, disgusting.'” The source added that while Hammer could tell Citizen Vigilante “leaned toward the right,” the actor later told them, “That was not the movie I thought we made.” The report also cited a Hollywood Reporter piece in which Hammer said he received a “scant 50-page script,” suggesting Boll may have left out key details about the movie.The post Armie Hammer Reportedly Blindsided by Final Cut of Controversial Movie He Starred In: ‘This Is Hateful, Disgusting’ first appeared on Mediaite.

Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-MI) admitted on Fox News that it was a mistake for Democrats not to believe one of Graham Platner’s accusers because of her conservative politics. Dingell joined Dana Perino on Fox News’ America’s Newsroom and during a discussion on the state of Platner’s campaign for Maine Senate, Perino asked Dingell about Lyndsey Fifield, an ex-girlfriend of Platner’s who has accused him of misconduct, including physical abuse. “Do you think the Democrats made a mistake in not believing Lyndsey Fifield, the conservative who brought the concerns to The New York Times in the first place?” Perino asked. “Yes. I didn’t sleep the other night. I have written an op-ed that I may get somebody to [publish] about when will we actually believe those who come forward. We have made progress but we haven’t changed,” Dingell said. Fifield slammed The New York Times this week following a report the outlet dropped on alleged misconduct by Platner in previous relationships. Fifield, who describes herself as conservative and has worked Republican campaigns, accused the outlet of emphasizing her political leanings over her accusations and of not corroborating her stories despite being offered sources. Platner is facing mounting pressure from fellow Democrats to drop his campaign after a new spate of sexual assault accusations, though he remains in the race to take on Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME). Fifield has accused Platner of getting physical during their relationship and sometimes leaving bruises on her arms, as well as removing condoms during intercourse without consent. Platner has denied wrongdoing and ever getting physical with her. Fifield faced some backlash from critics who cast doubt on her story, but she’s since spoken out more since another ex-girlfriend of Platner’s, Jenny Racicot, came forward to Politico and others to accuse Platner of sexually assaulting her, which the Senate candidate also denies. Dingell told CNN this week that she was “yelled at” by some fellow Democrats for refusing to back Platner. She also claimed she’s been told there could be more bombshells about the candidate’s personal life dropping in the future. “Quite frankly, I am told that there are more. I do talk — this is a community that I work in, and there are other credible reports that people have told me of,” she said. Watch above via Fox News.

President Donald Trump’s son weighed in on the case during an interview on Fox News on Wednesday morning, after spending two days inside a Utah courtroom. “It was important to be there and to see the actual facts laid out, Bill. Because there was so much stuff that, amidst the noise and the internet chatter, that was laid out that I’d never heard that makes this case very cut and dried to me,” Trump Jr. told America’s Newsroom co-host Bill Hemmer. Trump Jr. said the evidence laid out by the prosecution has been overwhelming. That evidence includes video of alleged shooter Tyler Robinson driving to Utah Valley University — 4.5 hours away from Robinson’s home — and interacting with Turning Point USA staff before the event where Kirk was killed. Video also showed Robinson “magically” walking with a limp and seen going on a rooftop, which was a “perfect” vantage point to shoot Kirk, Trump said. He said Robinson’s limp also led him and prosecutors to believe Robinson was walking with a gun in his pants. “The shot happens and within seconds, and he’s seen jumping off the building and running into the nearby woods,” Trump Jr. continued. He sardonically added “minor details” like Robinson turning himself in — coupled with the video and physical evidence — makes it clear he murdered Kirk. Trump Jr.’s interview comes as a preliminary hearing has been taking place in Provo, Utah. The New York Times reported the hearing is “like a reduced trial, with testimony and exhibits presented to a judge”; it is expected to run through the end of the week. Kirk was shot and killed at a TPUSA event last September. Since then, several conspiracy theories have been floated by pundits like Candace Owens, who has argued on different occasions that the U.S. military was “involved” and implied Kirk’s widow Erika Kirk was involved. Other theories floated by Owens include claiming French President Emmanuel Macron authorized a hit squad. Hemmer reported Erika Kirk had to get up and leave the courtroom on Monday when video of her husband being shot in the neck was played. Robinson is facing the death penalty if convicted.

- Iran Delivers Ominous Threat to Trump: If You Invade Kharg Island ‘Not a Singl...A senior Iranian lawmaker warned President Donald Trump that “not a single American soldier will return alive” if there was any U.S. attempt to seize or invade the country’s vital Kharg Island oil hub after the president suggested a takeover. The threat came after remarks made by Trump at the NATO summit in Turkey, following an exchange of strikes between the countries last night that prompted the president to brand the ceasefire deal with Tehran “over.” Trump revealed that, as part of Tuesday night’s strikes, the U.S. struck part of Kharg Island and suggested further military action remained on the table. “We attacked Kharg Island last night, knocked out a piece. I said, ‘Don’t touch the oil, because maybe we’ll take over Kharg Island,’” he said. “I said, ‘Don’t hit the pipes, just hit everything else.’ And they hit it. They may hit it again tonight.” Ebrahim Rezaei, spokesperson for the Iranian parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, responded directly to Trump on X, writing (translation to English provided by X): “Come — we are waiting for you — and we promise that not a single American soldier will return alive.” ترامپ باز هم حرف از اشغال جزیره خارگ زده است.بیایید، منتظرتان هستیم و قول میدهیم که حتی یک سرباز آمریکایی زنده برنگردد. — ابراهیم رضایی (@EbrahimRezaei14) July 8, 2026 Kharg Island, located off Iran’s southern coast, is the country’s most important oil export terminal, typically handling about 90% of Iranian crude exports. Earlier in the conflict, the Trump administration reportedly examined military options that included capturing Kharg Island or carrying out strikes designed to cripple its oil infrastructure. Officials also reportedly considered seizing other islands near the Strait of Hormuz to reduce Iran’s ability to threaten commercial shipping. The island was struck during skirmishes in April but the administration said that oil facilities were not targeted.
