Amy Schumer Just Called Out Ivanka For Her Reaction to Her Father's Child Separation Policy In a Savage New Instagram Post

Amy Schumer Just Called Out Ivanka For Her Reaction to Her Father's Child Separation Policy In a Savage New Instagram Post

One benefit of having Ivanka as a follower.

Comic Amy Schumer and fellow celebrities Alexa Chung and Sophia Amoruso have started a campaign to push the resignation of Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen through letters targeting Ivanka Trump.


The letter, which appeared on Amoruso's Instagram on Monday, urges the First Daughter to demand Nielsen's resignation over the "zero tolerance" policy that resulted in thousands of migrant children being separated from their parents at the U.S.-Mexican border.

The letter begins by referencing Trump's Axios interview last week in which she said family separation was a "low point" for her (note the past tense).

"Dear Ivanka..."

"You follow me on social media. You said family separation was a 'low point' for you. The low point is for the separated families."

"As of now, 572 children have no been reunited" despite a court-ordered deadline to do so, Amoruso pressed. "A child has died after separation" and there have been "multiple claims of sexual and physical abuse in detention," she added.

Amoruso continued: "There have been psychotropic drugs administered to children in detention without parental consent. These abuses have occurred on your father's watch under the leadership of Secretary Nielsen."

End these racist, inhuman, unconscionable abuses now!

The letter concludes with a simple plea to Trump:

We demand you call for the resignation of Secretary Nielsen!

Schumer, whom Trump follows on Instagram, reposted the letter which was then 'liked' more than 282,000 times in less than 24 hours.

Chung shared the letter Tuesday morning.

"That was a low point for me," Trump told Axios last Thursday. "I feel very strongly about that, and I am very vehemently against family separation and the separation of parents and children."

Trump's interview was shredded in a brutal USA Today Op-Ed on Monday. Columnist Raul Reyes said Trump's lack of pressure on her father renders her words inert and "reveals her as a profile in cowardice."

"The smartest thing that Ivanka Trump could say about immigration policy is nothing," Reyes wrote, adding that Trump’s “comments only illustrate the hollowness of her presence in the White House — just as the family separations crisis reveals her as a profile in cowardice."

Other famous names, such as Chelsea Handler and the Women's March, also shared the letter on Instagram.

Hollywood has made some progress with LGBTQ+ representation in mainstream films like Call Me by Your Name (2017), Moonlight (2016), and Carol (2015) that cater to those audiences.

But when it comes to featuring a gay kiss in commercial blockbusters meant for the general mass audience, studios remain skittish and tend to leave such scenes on the cutting room floor.

Elon Musk Sued For Fraud By Petition Signers Over Million Dollar Vote Buying Scheme

Three proposed class-action lawsuits have been filed against billionaire Elon Musk alleging that his political action committee, America PAC, engaged in fraudulent practices. The lawsuits claim the PAC misled voters by promising a random $1 million cash prize, even though the winners were allegedly predetermined.

Musk established America PAC in October to back President-elect Donald Trump’s successful presidential campaign. The PAC reportedly targeted Trump supporters in battleground states, encouraging them to share personal information and sign an online petition advocating for "free speech and the right to bear arms" in exchange for a chance to win the prize.

Conservative Has Brutal Warning For GOP After Trump Picks 'Vile Sex Pest' Gaetz For AG

After President-elect Donald Trump chose Florida Republican Representative Matt Gaetz for his Attorney General, conservative commentator Ben Domenech—the co-founder of The Federalist and editor-at-large of The Spectator World—did not hold back with a warning to anyone who votes to confirm him.

Domenech highlighted that Gaetz was previously the subject of a Justice Department investigation into alleged sex trafficking involving a 17-year-old girl and has faced scrutiny from the House Ethics Committee over accusations of sexual misconduct. However, that inquiry effectively concluded on Wednesday when Gaetz announced his resignation from Congress.

Though the majority of the age group voted for Kamala Harris, a staggering proportion voted for Donald Trump at a far higher percentage than is typical for the youth vote where Republicans are concerned.
