It sounds too good to be true: Al Pacino has joined team MAGA, narrating a short viral video regarding the political comeback of President Donald Trump.

And, just like all things that sound too good to be true, it is, fitting though the voiceover may seem.

The video gained traction because it was reposted by Juanita Broaddrick — the now-conservative activist who got embroiled in the political world after she accused former President Bill Clinton, under oath, of raping her when he was governor of Arkansas.

“I woke up to this video. Al Pacino joins MAGA. WOW!!!” she said.

The video begins with Trump walking down a hallway and Pacino narrating: “Three minutes to the biggest battle of our professional lives, all comes down to today. Either we heal as a team, or we’re going to crumble, inch by inch, play by play, ’til we’re finished.”

Then, Trump getting hit by a would-be assassin’s bullet in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Pacino: “We’re in hell right now.” A montage of clips regarding those talking about the assassination and an insinuation of who might have been behind this all (Chuck Schumer, on an unrelated subject: “You take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday of getting back at you”). There’s also Elon Musk praising him for pumping his fist “with blood streaming down his face.”

“This is instinctual courage,” Musk says.

Pacino again: “We can stay here, get the s*** kicked out of us, or we can fight our way back into the light. We can climb out of hell.” Footage of Trump at his trials and his mug shot.

Then, a photo showing how close the bullet came. Pacino: “One inch at a time.”

“Now, I can’t do it for you,” Pacino says. “I’m too old. The inches we need are everywhere around us.” Trump walking with ear bandaged out to the Republican National Convention.

“They’re in every break of the game, every minute, every second,” Pacino’s narration continues. “On this team, we fight for that inch. On this team, we tear ourselves and everyone else around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch because we know when we add up all those inches, that’s going to make the f***ing difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!”

“I’ll tell you this, in any fight, it’s the guy who’s willing to die, who’s going to win that inch,” Pacino says, along with text on the screen that says “Our fight has just begun.”

And it continues, with triumphal footage of Trump. It’s an inspiring speech, although it doesn’t quite match the material. And the first sign that something is off, if you aren’t familiar with the source material or didn’t see the community notes on it, is the appearance of (sigh) Alex Jones and the Infowars.com logo on screen — with Jones talking about “taking our country back,” presumably one bottle of overpriced vitamins at a time:

As for Pacino himself, it’s worth noting he’s largely stayed out of politics in his public life.

Even his choice of projects could give you one impression or another. Take his role as a whistleblower on police misconduct (“Serpico”) or a man robbing a bank to pay for his male lover’s gender-reassignment surgery at a time when such subjects were far more taboo (“Dog Day Afternoon”) and you could get the impression he’s a progressive. Or, look at his role as a sympathetic blind Vietnam veteran and retired colonel (“Scent of a Woman”) or as Satan in a movie that argues supernatural evil is very real and all-too-tempting (“The Devil’s Advocate”), and you could cast him as a conservative.

The point is, nobody knows, but he’s definitely not on team MAGA.

And the words he’s speaking were at least partially penned, and in a movie directed by, a man who definitely isn’t: ultra-progressive Oliver Stone, who has put out a hagiographical documentary about his friendship with brutal Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez (“Mi Amigo Hugo“), among other more well-known leftist cinematic detritus.

In this case, it’s from one of his less-political works — although still pretty meh, if you’ve never seen it — 1999’s “Any Given Sunday,” which takes on the brutal, cutthroat world of professional football, and comes to the conclusion that it is (get ready for this hot cinematic take), in fact, brutal and/or cutthroat.

Given that the NFL obviously wasn’t going to hand over the rights to Oliver freaking Stone, this monologue comes before a championship game — which is definitely not modeled on the Super Bowl in any way — in which Pacino, coach of the fictional Miami Sharks, gives a speech even Vince Lombardi would have been envious of, because it was written by Hollywood people making a big-budget movie:

Whatever the case, if the appearance of Alex Jones at the end didn’t tip you off to the veracity of this, no, this wasn’t Pacino going all-in with MAGA. It’s also interesting to see Jones — a man who is not wholly unfamiliar with the interiors of civil courtrooms — tempting the lawyers of a guy almost too liberal for Hollywood with a video that certainly, shall we say, may raise some questions about fair use doctrine.

So, no, Pacino isn’t going to be on stage with Trump, J.D., Melania and Elon anytime soon. Sorry to disappoint you.

President Trump addressed the crowd at CPAC 2025 on Saturday telling the American people that the United States has been liberated from the past four years of chaos.

“We fought through hell together, but in the end, we achieved the great liberation of America. We are liberating our country right now,” President Trump said.

President Trump told the crowd of the changes that are occurring under his new administration.

“The fraudsters, liars, cheaters, globalists and deep state bureaucrats are being sent packing. The illegal alien criminals are being sent home. We are draining the swamp, and we are restoring government by the people, for the people,” President Trump said.

“We must be doing something right because we’ve got the highest poll numbers that I’ve ever had and that any Republican President has ever had,” President Trump continued.

President Trump also told the crowd of patriots what his administration has accomplished in the first month of taking office.

“I’ve ended all of the so-called diversity, equity and inclusion programs across the entire Federal Government and the private sector, and notified every single government DEI officer that their job has been deleted. They’re gone, they’re fired,” Trump said.

“I’ve made it the official policy of the United States Government that there are only two genders, male and female,” Trump said.

“We banned the use of puberty blockers, hormone injections and other chemical and surgical mutilation of your youth,” President Trump continued.

“I banned government censorship from your voices, and brought back free speech in America,” Trump continued.

The President also talked about firing radical prosecutors within the DOJ after taking office.

“I ended his whole weaponization of our government and removed his handpicked radical left Marxist prosecutors from the Department of Justice,” Trump said of the Biden regime.

“I pardoned hundreds and hundreds of Biden’s political prisoners including Christians, pro-life activists and the J6 hostages who were treated terribly for years,” Trump said.

President Donald Trump took to the stage at CPAC on Saturday.  During his remarks, he discussed what drove him back on the campaign trail to run for president again in 2024.

“Over the past few weeks, we’ve begun the largest deportation operation in American history, larger even than that of President Dwight D.Eisenhower, a very moderate man, but he was very strong on that,” Trump began.

“He didn’t like people running into our country and taking over our country.”

“I’ll tell you, I had four years. I don’t know if you had this….I couldn’t stand it,” he stated with emphasis.

“‘Don’t get angry. ‘Donald, don’t get angry, please.’”

“I couldn’t stand it,” he stated with passion.

“Watching these people come in from jails and mental institutions and the worst criminals in the street, gang members being dropped off in busses and bused into our country.”

“I couldn’t stand it.”

“So I said, I’m going to run for President again.”

“And now we don’t have that problem.”

“Now we don’t have that problem anymore.”

The Governor of Wisconsin, Democrat Tony Evers, is facing blowback for introducing a budget that recommends a host of woke changes to destroy the nuclear family and diminish women.

One proposed change would swap the word “mother” in favor of “inseminated person.’

Evers has also proposed changing the term “paternity” to “parentage” in some parts of state law.

But Evers did not stop there his efforts to wokify language.

His administration’s budget recommendations for 2025-2027 includes additional pandering to the woke crowd by changing the terms “wife” and “husband” to “spouse.”

Additionally, “father” would be changed to “parent,” and “mother” would become  “parent who gave birth to the child.”

Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers is trying to change state law to replace the term “mother” with “inseminated person.”

He is attempting to sneak it into a thousand-page budget bill.

The New York Post reports:

The Republican Governors Association (RGA) issued a statement in response to the language changes.

Evers’ “latest left-wing push” is “offensive to mothers,” RGA executive director Sara Craig said in a statement. “Being a mother is the greatest privilege I will have in my lifetime, and every mother I know feels the same. If Tony Evers can reduce motherhood to an ‘inseminated person’ then our society is lost.”

DEM WISCONSIN GOV: “MOTHER” SHOULD BE CALLED “INSEMINATED PERSON”

Democratic Gov. Tony Evers wants to erase “mother” and “father” from state law, replacing them with “inseminated person” and “parent.”

President Donald Trump declared that MSNBC is a “THREAT TO OUR DEMOCRACY” in an all-caps morning post on Truth Social.

The post referred to MSNBC as “MSDNC,” his longtime nickname for the liberal network.

Trump wrote:

MSNBC, COMMONLY KNOWN AS MSDNC, IS A THREAT TO OUR DEMOCRACY. SUCH LYING AND MISREPRESENTATION. BAD PEOPLE AT THE TOP!

In January, Trump blasted the network as “worse than CNN” in another Truth Social post.

“MSDNC is even worse than CNN. They shouldn’t even have a right to broadcast — Only in America!” Trump wrote on January 22.

A few days later, he also took aim at MSNBC host Rachel Maddow specifically.

“Wow! Rachel Maddow has horrible ratings. She’ll be off the air very soon. MSNBC IS CLOSE TO DEATH. CNN HAS REACHED THE BOTTOM. This is a good thing. They are the Enemy of the people!” he wrote.

On Friday, MSNBC guest Wajahat Ali called black conservatives “chickens for Colonel Sanders” while attacking Rep. Byron Donalds.

The panel was discussing how President Donald Trump gave Donalds his full endorsement for the Florida gubernatorial race, even though he has not officially entered.

Ali mocked the endorsement, saying, "You know, every community has what I call their chickens for Colonel Sanders. Muslims had their halal chickens. The Black community has their chickens."

The commentator continued, "And what I want to tell the Byron Donalds and every community that’s got a Byron Donalds – I got a Kash Patel. We got a we got a Nimrata, you know, the Haley. We all got ’em. All right. What I want to say is this: They’ll never love you. They’ll never love you. No matter what you do. They’ll never love you. You can never wipe out that brown or Black skin."
