You talked about celebrities talking politics. Climate change isn't politics. It's science.

How much have you given or raised. This isn't about politics. It's about helping those who desperately need it. It's about people coming together. And how are there better ways to help. FEMA is out of money or will be soon. So what do you suggest. And 45 million is pretty damn good.

And yet, there you are, watching their movies, their tv shows, listening to their music....lol. Classic.

It's hysterical that you think "celebrities" have anything whatsoever to do with how much movies cost at the box office.

No. I watch Turner Classic movies and picky on what I watch. The no talent Hollywood has no one I care about. I don't go to the movies. It is garbage today. Tell me a good movie you have watched? Do they make any today?

Those who did not have insurance, not my problem.

Most of them in Harvey didn't have flood insurance. Flood insurance isn't mandatory unless you live in a flood zone.

Oi vey. What you don't know about Hollywood is a lot. I'm just gonna let you sit in your little smug bubble, thinking you're not contributing your dollars.
