Will CNN finally fire anchor Don Lemon, following an embarrassing on-air debacle? H.A. Goodman reports Lemon is skating on thin ice after yelling at a co-host during a live broadcast.
“He yelled at a co-host, which normally wouldn’t of made news, unless the network wanted to take him out of his current spot, which is not doing well,” Goodman says. Lemon was removed months ago from his primetime broadcast, which was usually filled with Trump rants. More from Goodman.
H.A. Goodman reports that either Joe Biden’s resignation or indictment in the Senate classified-document scandal is imminent. This comes after the FBI found more classified documents that spanned his time in the Senate.
Goodman says Biden’s own party is turning on him. “They don’t want mashed potato brains going into 2024,” he says. “They want him to resign almost certainly. I think they don’t want a year, a year and one-half of impeachment proceedings to reveal all the corrupt, obvious graft and potential bribery schemes.” He explains further.
H.A. Goodman reports that the district attorney in New Mexico’s First Judicial District will decide by the end of January on whether to charge Alec Baldwin in the shooting death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the movie set of Rust in Santa Fe County last summer.
Sourcing TMZ, Goodman says DA Mary Carmack-Altwies has requested additional funding from the state, suggesting that Baldwin will be charged and the case will move forward. More with Goodman.
H.A. Goodman ponders how Nancy Pelosi’s net worth jumped from $31.4 million in 2008 to $101.1 million in 2010–a 220 percent increase, according to the Washington Free Beacon.
Goodman says this was an exorbitant rise, considering the S&P 500 Index was down more than 38 percent in 2008, when the market was plummeting, interest rates skyrocketing and the Bernie Madoff Ponzi scheme was gripping the financial world. Since then, she’s added another $30 million! “It’s not possible, unless you’re involved in insider trading or criminal behavior.” he says.
Will the new Republican Congress bring us some answers by releasing Pelosi’s tax returns? Stay tuned. Here’s more with Goodman.
Months after the shooting on the movie set of Rust, Alec Baldwin has not complied with the Santa Fe County Sheriff Department’s request for his iPhone.
New Mexico First District Attorney Mary Carmack-Altwies told the Los Angeles Times the iPhone is with Baldwin in New York and they are closely working with the Suffolk County Sheriff’s Department to obtain any materials from the phone that are pertinent to the investigation. H.A. Goodman has the details, plus more.
Alec Baldwin claims he was ordered by the Santa Fe Sheriff’s Department to stop talking about the ongoing criminal investigation into the shooting death on the set of the film Rust. If true, he has violated the order several times, including a tell-all on ABC News with George Stephanopoulos.
So, was Baldwin really ordered to stop talking, then given permission to speak out to ABC News? “No. He lied about that and he lied about pulling the trigger,” H.A. Goodman says. “The man can’t stop lying, He goes from, ‘I’ve been ordered by the Sheriff’s Department not to speak about any aspect of this tragedy,’ to ‘Let me tell you how this happened.'”
Goodman reports that Baldwin actually knew there were live rounds on the property, because is stunt double had fired at least two live rounds days earlier. Goodman contends Baldwin, in his web of incessant lies, is determined to blame armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed for the shooting, no matter the circumstances. Here’s more of Goodman’s update.
Calling Alec Baldwin’s interview with ABC News “highly deceptive and nauseating,” H.A. Goodwin reports the actor-producer is blaming cinematographer Halyna Hutchins for her own death and says he feels no guilt for ending her life. The tragedy occurred on the set of the movie Rust, filmed in New Mexico. The film’s director, Joel Souza, was wounded in accident.
In the highly publicized, prime-time interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, Baldwin blames Hutchins for telling him to aim the firearm in her direction. He added that he pulled the hammer back, but did not pull the trigger, setting the firearm off. “That makes no sense. That’s not really possible,” Goodman says. “And you even have to modify a firearm to even make that happen.” A riled Goodman brings us more details from the interview and his analysis.
The armorer for the film Rust was also doubling as prop assistant, according to the Los Angeles Times. The attorney for armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed said serving in both positions didn’t work out for her and an additional prop assistant was brought onto the set.
Gutierrez Reed then complained about not having a dedicated cart for firearms, begging executive producer Alec Baldwin for one before being denied. H.A. Goodman says it’s been reported that there were three firearms laid out on a cart, along with a tray of ammunition, before Baldwin’s alleged accidental shooting that killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. “This makes no sense,” Goodman says. “It’s completely unsafe, and you’re waiting for an accident to happen.”
Was Gutierrez Reed overworked? Did Baldwin again violate protocol? Many questions still remained unanswered. Here’s Goodman with more details in the unending saga of the Rust tragedy.
H.A. Goodman reports that matters just got exponentially worse for Alec Baldwin. Sourcing an article in the New York Post, Goodman says Mamie Mitchell, script supervisor for the film Rust, filed a lawsuit against Baldwin for violating protocol on the set.
According to the Post article, Mitchell claims Baldwin intentionally fired the shot that killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. “There was nothing in the script indicating that a firearm was to have been discharged,” she says. Goodman says this is the second lawsuit filed against Baldwin. Earlier, the lighting director filed suit, also claiming the scene did not call for him to fire the weapon. Here’s more with Goodman.
