MAGA Melts Down at Ben Stiller Over ‘Got It Done’ Post
The Daily Beast • • entertainment
Key Points:
- Ben Stiller's social media post celebrating the New York Knicks' playoff win was misinterpreted by some MAGA supporters as a reaction to a shooting incident at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner.
- The shooting occurred outside the Washington Hilton, where Donald Trump, Melania Trump, and Cabinet officials were evacuated after a gunman armed with firearms and knives attempted to breach security.
- Stiller's brief message, "Got it done," posted shortly after the Knicks' victory, sparked backlash from conservative figures who accused him of insensitivity or malicious intent.
- X (formerly Twitter) added Community Notes clarifying Stiller was referring to the Knicks' game, not the shooting incident, and Stiller continued to celebrate the team's win despite the controversy.
