Drea de Matteo may be an actress, but she isn't just another do-gooder pawn of the Left in the usual, glittering Hollywood style.
Many people will recognize de Matteo for playing "Adriana La Cerva" on "The Sopranos," which aired from 1999-2007. She even won an Emmy for her role in the groundbreaking HBO drama series.
She said on Fox News' "Jesse Watters Primetime" that many of her progressive pals get taken in by the Dems' message of changing the world and loving everyone--call it the "joy" message, like for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in this election--while the Left is actually camouflaging who they really are.
Drea de Matteo on Fox News: “I’ll never have another gig. At the moment, all I care about is … trying to wake up a few more of my fellow liberals”

“I support Kennedy all the way, and I’m happy that there’s unity right now.
I don’t think Trump is a lifelong politician, and… pic.twitter.com/HmwoVmztlg
She said that "all of that weaponization on the left is camouflaged":
Any true liberal is anti-war, anti-censorship, pro-health ... They would be anti-mandate. That's totalitarian, that was authoritarian. That was on the left! I know that there's a lot of deep-rooted corruption, and sometimes they capture each party. Right now, that capture is on the Left.
While the actress says she's all in for RFK Jr. in November's election, she's gratified by the unity between him and former President Donald Trump--and understands that Trump is on the side of safeguarding freedom, something that many liberals claim they want.
She added that what she likes about both Kennedy and Trump is that they aren't "lifelong politician[s]." She mentioned that she will never have another acting job because of her willingness to voice her opinions on politics that don't toe the party line:
I’ll never have another gig. At the moment, all I care about is … trying to wake up a few more of my fellow liberals.
She name-checks one star, who is likely too far gone with Trump Derangement Syndrome--actor/director Ben Stiller, who recently enthused that he's excited about change represented by Harris' presidential run. De Matteo said that's completely backward, since Kamala has been in the White House for almost four years.
Another example of what she's talking about is George Clooney, who raved about Joe Biden stepping aside for Kamala Harris in glowing terms, while at the Venice Film Festival in Italy on Sunday. Previously, he wrote a Washington Post op-ed urging Biden to end his reelection campaign "over age-related concerns." He told the AP:
The person who should be applauded is the president, who did the most selfless thing that anybody’s done since George Washington....It’s very hard to let go of power. We know that. We’ve seen that all around the world.
That's what de Matteo had to deal with every single day in Hollywood. Let's pray that what she's saying can get through to a few willing ears, on what's really going on in our country.
