Nick Offerman Says Ron Swanson Is Not A Trump Supporter
Nick Offerman is shutting down "dumb people" who think his most beloved TV character would be a Trump supporter. In an interview with IndieWire to promote his new film Sovereignty, Nick made it clear that Ron Swanson from Parks and Recreation would not be an unwavering supporter of the 47th president. Nick played Ron in Parks and Rec for seven seasons and 126 episodes between 2009 and 2015. Since then, the character Ron has lived on as a prime choice for clips, memes, and GIFs shared across the interwebs. The actor boiled it down to the fact that MAGA supporters might believe, "Well, he had a shotgun, so he must be one of us," he said. "Dumb people insist that Ron Swanson would've voted for Trump. And I don't deign to answer myself," Nick continued. "I take it to Mike Schur, the main creator of Ron, and he said, 'Swanson would've despised Trump, because Ron loved capitalism. And Trump made the stupidest move you could make as a capitalist, which is to go into public service.'" Nick believes that Ron wouldn't be MAGA at all, and he would despise its leader. "He would think he's an absolute idiot. He would also despise him because he's disrespectful to women and many others. And that's just an example of all the people and value sets that Ron would despise, because Ron is a good person." As a fan of Parks & Recreation who relates so hard with the series (I'm a Donna Meagle with a Tom Haverford rising at my job), it's obvious that Ron wouldn't be a Trump supporter. For one, he's not even a Republican. "Ron Swanson, a wonderful creation from much more brilliant minds than my own, people hold up for the wrong reasons, and take their own reading of this true Libertarian who was cool with everybody," Nick said in the interview. Ron fired back with a reference to the series finale, "One Last Ride," which included the wedding of Ron's hairdresser, Typhoon. "Ron was best man at a gay wedding you dumb fuck," Nick wrote. "Happy Pride." So that's that! Ron is a Libertarian LGBTQ+ ally. Period.

‘Sovereign': True Story About The Sovereign Citizen Movement
R | 1h 40m | Drama | 2025 Nick Offerman's career-defining character on TV's 'Parks & Recreation,' Ron Swanson, had a few functions on the show. One of them was the grounding counterpoint his Libertarian screeds had on Leslie Knope's (Amy Poehler) overly optimistic liberalism. It gave audiences the rare, positive portrayal of a small-government outlook.

People have been left absolutely stunned after Adam Scott made a surprise appearance in his daughter's TikTok video on Wednesday, with many admitting that they had no idea he is old enough to have a 16-year-old child. Francesca Scott introduced her famous dad to her followers in a video that used a viral audio clip of Kim Kardashian describing her week's plans to Scott Disick. 'Me informing my dad about my weekend plans,' Francesca wrote, while lip-syncing: 'I have a busy week.' The camera then pans to Adam, who looks unimpressed as he lip-syncs Scott's part, asking: 'Do you?' 'Thursday, Nobu. Vegas Friday — then I have a spray tan at 8.45,' Francesca's part continues, with Adam being shown again as he lip-syncs: 'Oh my god, things are filling up!'

Voice Of John Redcorn In King Of The Hill Killed In Shooting
Actor Jonathan Joss, who voiced John Redcorn on King of the Hill, was killed in a shooting over the weekend in San Antonio, Texas. Joss was 59 years old. On Sunday night, San Antonio police officers were dispatched to a shooting outside a home around 7 p.m. local time. When police arrived, they discovered Joss near the edge of the road with multiple gunshot wounds. The officers attempted life-saving measures and called for medical support, but he was pronounced dead shortly after they arrived. Police are still investigating the shooting. TMZ, which was the first outlet to break the news, reported that Joss was shot by a neighbor after an argument turned violent. Joss has voiced fan-favorite character John Redcorn, a Native American healer and musician, since King of the Hill's second season. Variety reports that he has already recorded his lines for the upcoming revival, which is set to arrive on Hulu this August. Redcorn will appear in the second episode of the show's upcoming 14th season and will likely appear a few more times before the new season ends. He also appeared in NBC's Parks & Recreation multiple times as Ken Hotate. TMZ further reported that Joss had returned to his home on Sunday night after it had burned down in February, allegedly due to him using a BBQ pit. TMZ says that after he discovered the skeleton of one of his dogs, which had been killed in the fire in the remains of the home, he grew agitated and began ranting at others in the area. Reportedly, this was a common occurrence, according to TMZ. He allegedly got into a heated verbal confrontation with a neighbor in the area, who later returned and shot Joss multiple times. The actor's husband, Tristan Kern de Gonzales, posted a lengthy statement on Facebook alleging that the people in their neighborhood had been threatening the couple for years over their relationship. The late actor's husband claims that when they returned to their burned-down home, a man approached them and yelled homophobic slurs before shooting Joss with a gun. 'He was murdered by someone who could not stand the sight of two men loving each other,' said de Gonzales. Joss wasn't the first voice actor for John Redcorn. The original actor, Victor Aaron, voiced the character in the show's first season but died in a car crash. King of the Hill's new 14th season arrives this August, and Hulu recently released the show's intro, which includes John Redcorn. . For the latest news, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
