Susan Sarandon facing backlash for "mocking heroes" in anti-cop Twitter post
CNN
Susan Sarandon is facing backlash from law enforcement for a Twitter post she shared comparing the officers gathered at slain NYPD Detective Jason Rivera's funeral to fascists.
Podcaster Danny Haiphong had originally posted a tweet that showed thousands of NYPD cops lined up on 5th Avenue in Manhattan last week to honor Rivera after he was killed responding to a domestic disturbance call in Harlem. The picture included the phrase, "I'm gonna tell my kids this is what fascism looks like."
Sarandon then shared the tweet, adding, "So, if all these cops weren't needed for CRIME that day, doesn't that mean they aren't needed ANY day?"

It was after midnight in Malaysia when Secretary of State Marco Rubio dialed into a call between President Donald Trump and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte. The topic was Ukraine and Rubio, on his first trip to Asia as Trump’s top diplomat, had just met face-to-face with his Russian counterpart, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
