Liberal actor Alec Baldwin, most famous these days for being careless on the set of a movie and shooting and killing a cinematographer, is once again being hammered by the family of a Marine that was killed during the Afghan troop withdrawal. The family has refiled its defamation lawsuit against Baldwin concerning posts where he referred to the Marine’s sister as an “insurrectionist.” That whole situation was a complete and total disaster. No lives should have been lost that day. If only President Joe Biden would have listened to reason instead of trying to reap political favor.
According to the Daily Wire, “Marine Lance Corporal Rylee J. McCollum’s sisters and widow sued the troubled actor in their home state of Wyoming, but that case was dismissed in May over lack of jurisdiction. The new case, filed in the Southern District of New York last week by McCollum’s sisters, Roice and Cheyenne, and widow, Jiennah, claims Baldwin’s posts calling Roice a January 6 “insurrectionist” led to her being threatened, according to FoxNews.com.”
The report went on to say, “McCollum, 20, was one of 13 American service members killed in a suicide bombing near the Kabul airport as the U.S. withdrew from Afghanistan a year ago. The bomber was a man who had just been freed from prison.”

According to the lawsuit, Baldwin had originally tried to reach out to the family of the dead Marine and offer a $5,000 donation for Jiennah, who was carrying a child when her husband died. However, Roice McCollum went on to share a photo on Instagram of herself attending the Trump rally that happened just before the riot broke out at the U.S. Capitol. After that, Baldwin ripped into her.
“Are you the same woman I sent the $ for your sister’s husband who was killed during the Afghanistan exit?” the actor went on to ask in an online message. “When I sent the $ for your late brother, out of real respect for his service to this country, I didn’t know you were a January 6th rioter.”
Roice then sent a response to the notoriously hot-tempered leftist, stating clearly that she had been well within her rights.
“Protesting is perfectly legal in the country and I’ve already had my sit down with the FBI,” she replied. “Thanks, have a nice day!”
Baldwin didn’t waste much time, writing back and falsely accusing the rioters involved in the Jan. 6 incident of murdering a police officer. The actor then went on to make accusations against Roice, who says she never entered the Capitol building and has not been charged with any such related crime, of adding to the damage that was done to the building. Baldwin just doesn’t know when to keep his mouth shut, does he?
“Your activities resulted in the unlawful destruction of government property, the death of a law enforcement officer, an assault on the certification of the presidential election,” Baldwin went on to say in his response. “I reposted your photo. Good luck.”
Check out more detail from the Daily Wire report:
McCollum claims in the lawsuit that she immediately began to get “hostile, aggressive, [and] hateful messages” from Baldwin’s millions of social media followers.
Another U.S. Marine, Fox News contributor Joey Jones, recently blasted Baldwin for continuing to blame everyone but himself for the tragic shooting on the set of his film “Rust” — which killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. Baldwin, who says it was an accident and that he never pulled the trigger, was not charged criminally in the October 21, 2021 shooting, although he may face civil litigation from Hutchins’ family.
Baldwin is a real piece of work. Here he accused this woman and other rioters of murder when he himself actually did kill someone, with an actual gun, on a movie set, due to his own personal negligence. He’s always been a hypocrite, but he’s truly shown himself with this incident. It’s too bad there are so many individuals like Baldwin in Hollywood.
