Actor Johnny Depp will be charged with conspiracy to assassinate the president and held as a terrorist enemy combatant after joking about assassinating President Trump.
On 23 June 2017, the fakeÂ news web site the Last Line of Defense (LLOD) posted an article reporting that actor Johnny Depp will be charged under the Patriot Act for plotting to kill President Trump: < Youâ€™ve probably seen Johnny Deppâ€™s last â€œPiratesâ€ movie. In fact, youâ€™ve probably seen the last of Johnny Depp. In a shocking announcement this morning, Homeland Security announced that it had enough evidence to charge Depp with conspiracy to assassinate the President and hold him as a terrorist enemy combatant. Those words typically mean one thing: Gitmo. Thatâ€™s where combatants are detained and debriefed. Depp can expect to be subject to intensive interrogation on how an iconic American actor could possibly have fallen so far. Major James Okenhurd told us: â€œDeppâ€™s apartment in the city is a shrine to Mohammed and Allah. He has several copies of the Quran and a collection of prayer rugs. There is no doubt that he is a practicing jihadist.â€ > Albeit inspired byÂ an actual incidentÂ â€” anÂ ill-conceived commentÂ Depp made during a public appearance in England (for which Depp later apologized)Â â€” the claim that Homeland Security announced heÂ will be charged with terrorism is a complete fabrication (as is the claim that Depp is known to be a devotee of Islam and a â€œpracticing jihadistâ€). No such reports have emerged in reliable mainstream news sources. According to the BBC, the Secret Service is tasked with monitoring and following up on threats against the U.S. president and was aware of Deppâ€™s statements, but in the absence of proofÂ of a â€œreal intent to harm,â€ artists are generally granted licenseÂ under the First Amendment to â€œwish the president deadâ€ without legal consequences, as was the case when Madonna made reference to â€œblowing up the White Houseâ€ earlier in 2017: < Reacting to the controversy, one Secret Service official told the New York Post that any action against her would depend on whether the remarks were considered a genuine threat â€”Â which could also be the case with Johnny Depp now. The official said then: â€œItâ€™s all about intent. Is she intending to do harm to the White House or President Trump? Otherwise it will be characterized as inappropriate.â€ Other cases included rapper Snoop Dogg, who shot a toy gun at a Donald Trump character in a music video and comedian Kathy Griffin, who posted a photo in which she appeared to hold a fake bloodied head that resembled Mr. Trump. > Finally, the Last Line of Defense is a self-described â€œsatirical publicationâ€Â whose content must always be taken with a very large grain of salt: < DISCLAIMER: Americaâ€™s Last Line of Defense is a satirical publication that uses the imagination of liberals to expose the extreme bigotry and hate and subsequent blind gullibility that festers in right-wing nutjobs. We present fiction as fact and our sources donâ€™t actually exist. Names that represent actual people and places are purely coincidental and all images should be considered altered and do not in any way depict reality. In other words, if you believe this crap youâ€™re a real dumbass. >
