Fifty vinyl stickers resembling President Donald Trump's Hollywood Walk of Fame star were plastered all over Hollywood Friday morning in protest of a passed West Hollywood City Council resolution that sets to remove the president's star.

Hollywood Floats Space Force Conspiracy Theories: ‘Designed to Make You Forget About the Mueller Investigation’
Hollywood celebrities ripped into the Trump administration’s plans to create a Space Force program, decrying it as everything from a waste of money to a distraction from the Mueller investigation. On Thursday, Vice President Mike Pence formally unveiled plans from the Pentagon to create a sixth branch of the American military by 2020, declaring that they would now “implement the president’s guidance and turn his vision into a reality.”“To be clear, the Space Force will not be built from scratch, because the men and women who run and protect our nation’s space programs today are already the best in the world,” Pence said. The Space Force plan was praised by iconic American astronaut Buzz Aldrin, one of the first men to land and walk on the surface of the Moon. Yet scores of Hollywood figures immediately mocked the plan, suggesting that is a waste of money, it has a stupid name, or that they should be allowed to participate.

He also told THR he feared for his safety due to the violence being perpetrated by the political left against Trump and his supporters. “I didn’t want to get hit over the head from behind. We thought Trump Derangement Syndrome was a joke, but I’m pretty sure it’s real,” the artist told THR. “If no one peels these off, they could last there for 10 years.” Already, though, an employee at the … [Read more...] about Watch: Street Artist Covers Hollywood Walk of Fame with 50 Trump Stars
