Former governor of Arkansas Mike Huckabee incited a family spat between the Baldwin brothers and left the internet confused.


It all started when Alec Baldwin announced he was hanging up his Trump hairpiece on SNL, saying:

"I can't imagine I would do it again. I just can't."

Huckabee expressed "good riddance" in a tweet lambasting the Emmy-winning actor and directed followers to watch his relaunched Christian-based program Huckabee instead of SNL.

On Saturday, the former Republican presidential nominee for the 2016 presidential election tweeted:

"Alec Baldwin announced that he's "so done" playing @realDonaldTrump on Saturday Night Live. Good news for viewers who are 'so done' with SNL & unfunny vicious Trump bashing instead of comedy. For refreshing variety, try my show instead tonight!"

Billy Baldwin—the second-youngest of the Baldwin brothers—scorched Huckabee, whose daughter is White House Press Secretary, Sarah Huckabee Sanders.

"Only two things funnier than my brothers impersonation of Trump. Your daughters impersonation of being an honest, decent human being and your impersonation of being a Christian."

Things took a turn when Stephen Baldwin—a born-again Christian and the youngest Baldwin brother—took aim at Billy on Twitter with the hashtag:

#GottaReadYaBibleBilly

"Do unto others," he suggested and continued, "which one made it personal."

"One difference / mystery of God is true holy discontent & the true hate in our hearts ... that comes without Christ."

Billy responded with a double-take and wondered which side his younger brother was on.

He added that any "Christian" who supports Donald Trump himself "is a fraud" and countered with the hashtag: #GottaReadANewspaperStevie.

Twitter chimed in by commenting on the black sheep of the family.


Billy affirmed his affection for his brother but added that politics divide them.

Actress Holly Marie Combs had a suggestion for Stephen.

This user shared an anecdote about her regrets over a sibling at odds.

Twitter remains confused over the im-bro-glio.


People wished Stephen well.



Others did not leave Huckabee off the hook for bashing Alec Baldwin.


Alec Baldwin stated the reason for retiring from his SNL portrayal of Trump was so that he could spend more time with family.

Continued attacks for his turn as the commander-in-chief culminated in Trump's attack on SNL:

"Nothing funny about tired Saturday Night Live on Fake News NBC! Question is, how do the Networks get away with these total Republican hit jobs without retribution?"

Alec asked someone to convince SNL producer Lorne Michaels to find another Trump impersonator.

"I thought to myself: 'I really don't have a lot invested in my Trump impersonation, so please find someone and convince Lorne [Michaels] to replace me.' "

While actors are interchangeable, brothers are not.

Hopefully, the Twitter feud is nothing more than a minor bro-haha.

Sandra Lee, known as "Dr. Pimple Popper" on Lifetime, is well-known for her bedside manner, medical knowledge and ability to share her knowledge in an accessible way, and, of course, her unique approach to dermatological care.

Rob Schneider Dragged For Criticizing Elizabeth Banks' 'Dangerous Rhetoric' After She Called Out White Female Trump Voters

After actor and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks—who played Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games—called out white women who voted for President Donald Trump, MAGA actor Rob Schneider lashed out against what he referred to as her "dangerous rhetoric."

Those who've read the book and seen the film adaptation of The Hunger Games know that Trinket—known for joyfully announcing, "Happy Hunger Games and the odds may be ever in your favor!"—is a mistress of propaganda for a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line. Trinket eventually embraces the rebellion.

Musician Kid Rock has hitched his wagon to president Donald Trump for quite some time now, and it seems he too is in the "find out" stage of that particularly exercise in FAFO.

It seems that when the president you form your entire personality around craters to a catastrophic approval rating even for him, your ship starts to sink too.

Trump's Border Czar Ripped For Hypocrisy After Telling Pope Leo To 'Stay Out Of Politics'

President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan was called out for hypocrisy after telling Pope Leo XIV to "stay out of politics" after he clashed with Trump over the widely unpopular war in Iran.

Last week, Pope Leo criticized the war and called on the world "to reject war, especially a war which many people have said is an unjust war, which is continuing to escalate and is not resolving anything."
