The actor was speaking on The Michael Smerconish Program about how he expects people in government to "do the right thing" before passionately defending Liz Cheney—and MAGA fans are livid.

Hollywood star Kevin Costner riled MAGA conservatives by vehemently defending former GOP Wyoming Representative Liz Cheney, an outspoken critic of Republican President-elect Donald Trump.

"I'm very proud of Liz Cheney. I found a person who's completely at odds with one side and willing to stand up," Costner said on Monday's episode of SiriusXM's The Michael Smerconish Program.


"We should applaud her. We should protect her," insisted the star and producer of the neo-Western TV drama series Yellowstone.

Costner mentioned Cheney during a discussion on the contentious political climate, saying:

“I expect people in government to do the right thing. Public service is about public service."
"It’s not about your career. It’s not about your ego. Your four years is your four years."

“When I think about our country,” Costner said, “we have to think about other people.”

He continued expressing admiration for Cheney, saying:

"This woman should never be threatened and neither should anybody that stands up in America, because we we admire the people of the revolutionary war that stood up."
"So when someone stands up, even if we don't, we can't let her be vulnerable. As a man I can't allow. We shouldn't allow that."

The MAGA fans of Yellowstone were disappointed to hear the show's star praising the former GOP Congresswoman.

So they canceled Costner and railed into him on X (formerly Twitter).








Loyal Costner fans drowned out the noise by fully backing his support for Cheney.



Cheney became one of her party's strongest vocal critics of Trump.

She expressed no regrets about impeaching him for his alleged coercing of Ukraine into investigating his then-Democratic challenger, Joe Biden, to damage his campaign in the 2020 election.

The former Congresswoman also joined the House investigative committee that found Trump responsible for causing the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.

During the 2024 election, Cheney joined then-Democratic candidate Kamala Harris's campaign alongside her father, former 46th Vice President Dick Cheney.

The alliance was viewed as an attempt to reach across the aisle without compromising Republican values by prioritizing the nation above partisanship.

Trump slammed the Democrats, stating the party made a "BIG mistake" by getting the GOP politicians involved in Harris's campaign.

He also lashed out at Cheney following her first appearance on the campaign trail with Harris by calling Cheney a “low IQ war hawk.”

He wrote on his Truth Social platform:

“Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, OK. Let’s see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face.”

Cheney responded to Trump's threat by warning Americans:

“This is how dictators destroy free nations.”

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
