Despite starring in dozens of movies over the last 30 years, it wasn’t until yesterday that Brad Pitt finally won an Oscar. Though in the past he has said some pro-2nd Amendment things, his inner leftist couldn’t be held back on Sunday night, and he took the opportunity to weigh in on the impeachment witch hunt:
“They told me I only have 45 seconds up here, which is 45 seconds more than the Senate gave John Bolton this week. I’m thinking maybe Quentin does a movie about it, in the end, the adults do the right thing.”

Pitt could have added that 45 seconds is also more time than Pelosi and Schiff gave the Trump administration in the House secret basement hearings.
But he’s not clever enough for that.
Brad Pitt’s award was for Best Supporting Actor in Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.
