Eric Trump, the son of former President Donald Trump, was criticized for posting a statement about his family’s “sacrifice” on social media.
In a post on X on May 24, Eric replied to another post made on the same day by the pro-maga X account.
The post included an image of himself, his wife, Lara Trump, his father, former first lady Melania Trump, Donald Trump Jr. and his fiancée Kimberly Guilfoyle standing together.
“The family that gave up everything to Save America,” the caption in Freedom’s post read. “Thank You!”
“And we will do it again,” the former president’s son wrote in response to the post.
During Memorial Day weekend, X users slammed Eric for the out-of-touch statement.
“Particularly disgusting to post this on Memorial Day weekend,” neoconservative writer Bill Kristol wrote in a post.

Outlander season seven’s midseason finale featured the Battles of Saratoga through the eyes of Jamie and Claire on the American side and William Ransom on the British side. The episode shows the British forces surrendering after the Americans overwhelmed British fortifications.
Although several famous Revolutionary figures have been both name-checked and featured in this season, Benedict Arnold is arguably one of the most interesting of them all. Arnold is introduced as a very friendly man and a key strategist in the plan to defeat the British. Claire mentions to Jamie that history only remembers him for betraying the American cause. How close is Claire’s fictional assessment to real history?
Arnold’s involvement in the Revolutionary War on the American side began when he was elected to captain in the Connecticut militia in March 1775. This overlaps with the events of last season. It was Arnold...

Starz’s Outlander season seven episode eight – the mid-season finale – opens with Jamie (Sam Heughan) still unconscious on the battlefield. A mother and her son are stealing items off the dead when Jamie coughs. Claire (Caitriona Balfe) arrives just in time to stop the thieves from slitting Jamie’s throat, holding them off by grabbing a sword and threatening to kill them if they don’t back off.
Don’t mess with badass Claire in full protective mode!
Claire berates her husband for getting injured in hand-to-hand combat. He’s a sniper and not supposed to be in the thick of the fight, and Claire calls him a “vainglorious, pig-headed, grandstanding Scot.” The only word Jamie takes exception to is grandstanding.

“Outlander” is giving fans a little more time before they have to say goodbye — and giving subscribers more of a reason to sign up for a full year instead of just a few months. Season 7 of the time-travel romance will air in two parts, Starz said on Wednesday, with the first half airing this year and the second half waiting for 2024.
Season 7, as previously announced, consists of 16 episodes, the show’s highest order count since Season 1. Like Season 1, which aired in 2014 and 2015, Season 7 will be split into two eight-episode bunches — the “Droughtlander” is officially over on June 16. “Outlander” has already been renewed for a final Season 8, which will consist of 10 episodes and presumably air in 2025 or later.

Ever since launching his career with "Saturday Night Live," Andy Samberg has lent his voice to a variety of projects, from selling sardines as Baby Brent in "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs" to hanging out with monsters as Johnny in the "Hotel Transylvania" franchise. But that's family friendly fare. More recently, Samberg has also dabbled in animated roles geared towards adults, such as playing a werewolf version of Benedict Arnold in "America: The Motion Picture." Now, he's starring in his own animated adult comedy series.
"Digman!" premieres on Comedy Central starting on March 22, 2023 (watch the trailer here), with Samberg playing a washed up archaeologist adventurer named Rip Digman. Set in a universe where archaeologists are considered major celebrities, it should come as no surprise that the Digman character takes some cues from Indiana Jones. In fact, he might take even more inspiration from Nicolas Cage's character Benjamin Gates in "National Treasure.

Put on your kilts and break out the bagpipes in mourning: “Outlander” is coming to an end. The hit Starz TV series has been renewed for an eighth and final season, the premium cable channel announced Thursday. The news comes ahead of Season 7 of the series, which will premiere in Summer 2023.
The news makes it unclear if the show, which is based Diana Gabaldon’s series of historical fantasy romance novels, will adapt the most recent installment, 2021’s “Go Tell the Bees That I Am Gone.” Each season of “Outlander” has thus far roughly adapted one book in the series, with the upcoming seventh season set to cover 2009’s “An Echo in the Bone” and Season 8 presumably covering 2014’s “Written in My Own Heart’s Blood.” That said, Season 7 is set to have an extended 16-episode run, while Season 8 will consist of 10 episodes, so its possible that longer length can help cover all three books.

America: The Motion Picture offers up a totally insane retelling of the American Revolutionary War and the birth of the United States of America. It’s a movie that gives George Washington chainsaws on his arms, makes him best friends with Abraham Lincoln, turns Benedict Arnold into a werewolf, and features a final battle with a […]

America: The Motion Picture is a blockbuster animated comedy available on Netflix now. The raucously hilarious patriotic satire features a completely ridiculous and nonsensical account of the American Revolutionary War, where George Washington, Sam Adams, Thomas Edison, Paul Revere, Geronimo and John Henry team up to take on Benedict Arnold (who just so happens to […]

This article contains light spoilers for America: The Motion Picture.
Director Matt Thompson has been in the adult animated comedy game for a long time. Thompson was around for the dawn of Adult Swim in 2001 when the programming block hosted Sealab 2021, the series he created alongside frequent collaborator Adam Reed. Reed and Thompson would go on to produce several other animated classics including Frisky Dingo and Archer (which is set to premiere its 12th season later this year).
Still, when it came time to direct his first feature animated film, Netflix’s America: The Motion Picture, the seasoned vet realized that movies are a unique beast.
“(With films) you get a lot more time to sit and try to make things funnier, to make more jokes,” Thompson says. “When you’re on a very tight deadline of episodic television, you kind of have to kick stuff out and move forward.

America’s creation myths may not be entirely rooted in fact — few of us still believe the story about George Washington chopping down that cherry tree — but they’re considerably less outlandish than “America: The Motion Picture,” an animated comedy in which our first president is a chainsaw-wielding freedom fighter who founds America to avenge the murder of his best friend, Abraham Lincoln. If that timeline seems impossible, that’s because it is — not that this “Adult Swim”-esque cartoon cares. Directed by Matt Thompson and counting Phil Lord, Christopher Miller, and “Archer” creator Adam Reed among its producers, the film brings an anarchic energy to the story of how many become one.
Within the first few chaotic minutes, history has already been drastically revised: “We the people” beats out “us rich white dudes” via a game of beer pong as the Declaration of Independence is signed, only for Benedict Arnold...

“America: The Motion Picture,” Netflix’s first R-rated animated feature, offers a satirical, revisionist reworking of the American Revolution, in which a chainsaw-wielding George Washington (voiced by Channing Tatum) fights the British with a merry band of Colonial misfits to avenge the death of his Bff, Abe Lincoln (voiced by Will Forte). They include beer-worshiping Sam Adams (Jason Mantzoukas), gender-bending science wiz Thomas Edison (Olivia Munn), “horse-racist” Paul Revere (Bobby Moynihan), one-armed Apache leader Geronimo (Raoul Trujillo), and handy blacksmith John Henry (Killer Mike).
It’s like an absurd 2D cross between “Archer” and “Clone High,” which isn’t surprising, since it’s directed by “Archer” producer Matt Thompson and produced by Phil Lord and Chris Miller, who are rebooting “Clone High” for HBO Max, while writing and producing “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse 2,” which is co-written by “America” scribe Dave Callaham (Marvel’s “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings...

"Ding dong, it's America M-Fer!" Netflix has released one more trailer for the animated comedy America: The Motion Picture, a final red band trailer packed with profanity and violence galore. Which is befitting America's sordid history. Debuting on Netflix today - just in time for the 4th of July weekend. In this wildly tongue-in-cheek animated revisionist history, a chainsaw-wielding George Washington assembles a team of rabble rousers — beer-loving bro Sam Adams, famed scientist Thomas Edison, acclaimed horseman Paul Revere, and a pissed off Geronimo — to defeat Benedict Arnold and King James in the American Revolution. This animated movie stars "America's sweethearts" — Channing Tatum (as G.W.), Jason Mantzoukas, Olivia Munn, Judy Greer, Bobby Moynihan (as Paul), Raoul Max Trujillo (as Geronimo), Killer Mike, Andy Samberg, Will Forte, and Simon Pegg (as King James). This is very similar to the original trailer, just with some added "red band" material. It may be extra dumb,...

“America: The Motion Picture” gives George Washington chainsaw arms. As far as historical rewrites go, that’s not nothing. If the cherry tree story was always fiction — not to mention scores of other anecdotes about historical figures that have morphed their way into conventional understanding about the Great Men of History — then why not tell a nonsensical version of 1776 that involves mechanized weapon limbs?
That’s about as close to making a salient point as this movie gets. For those watching who consider anything other than reverence of the Founders to be insufficient, this will not be their cup of Boston Lager. For others looking for an insightful takedown of the mythologizing of American history, there’s not much for them to find, either. , often only slightly more ambitious than that commercial where ol’ Gw drives a Dodge Challenger with a Hemi engine. Most of the time, it’s knowingly stupid,...

In the United States, what we teach as history and historical accuracy is somehow a hot button issue right now. Ignorant, enraged, and overwhelmingly white parents are shaking in their boots at the thought that their children may learn some hard truths about American history—that our nation was not always the moral, perpetual Good Guy badass that we present ourselves as. If these outraged, analphabetic reactionaries had it their way, we’d likely be teaching America: The Motion Picture as 100 percent fact in every red state public school across the country.
From executive producers Phil Lord and Christopher Miller and director Matt Thompson (Archer), America: The Motion Picture is a gory, loud, and exceedingly stupid animated comedy that stretches the one-note joke of “what if the Founding Fathers were dude-bros?” into a numbing 98 minutes. Using a tone similar to Archer, but without the clever quips and genre takedowns, America...

If no distributor can ever handpick its audience, once Netflix sent its ribald and irreverent reframing of the U.S.’ foundational myth to the French animation festival, the streamer certainly came awfully close.
Produced by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller and directed by “Archer” producer Matt Thompson, the decidedly hard-r “America: The Motion Picture” played to a room primed to react when it screened in France as part of Annecy’s Midnight Specials sidebar this past Friday.
Though the film played to a room at 65% capacity and at 8:30 pm rather than at midnight, you can blame French Covid-19 restrictions for that. Whatever the case, the audience was surprisingly mixed in both gender and generation, and seemed to generally be in tune with the film that begins with Abraham Lincoln being mauled by a werewolf Benedict Arnold, in case you wondered about historical verisimilitude.
“I enjoyed it,” Sarah, 34, told Variety as the screening let out.

"I'm George Washington. Let's go start a f*&!ing revolution!" Time to celebrate 'Merica! Netflix dropped an official trailer for the animated comedy America: The Motion Picture, from Matt Thompson. In this wildly tongue-in-cheek animated revisionist history, a chainsaw-wielding George Washington assembles a team of rabble rousers — including beer-loving bro Sam Adams, famed scientist Thomas Edison, acclaimed horseman Paul Revere, and a pissed off Geronimo — to defeat Benedict Arnold and King James in the American Revolution. Who will win? No one knows, but you can be sure of one thing: these are not your father's Founding... uh, Fathers. This stars "America's sweethearts" Channing Tatum (as G.W.), Jason Mantzoukas, Olivia Munn, Judy Greer, Bobby Moynihan (as Paul), Raoul Max Trujillo (as Geronimo), Killer Mike, Andy Samberg, Will Forte, and Simon Pegg (as King James). This looks totally insane in the best of ways. Can't wait to watch this and laugh my ass off.
