The Conservative Cave

I remember some of his hit-pieces on Trump. He despised Trump and didn't attempt to buffer any point he wanted to make. Trump no doubt was familiar with Reiner's "opinions". Like Maddow or Tapper, Reiner's hit pieces were powered by TDS, not facts. His pretend-facts were twisted and the supporting logic and numbers he used to back up his stories were pathetic. Reiner wanted to get to Trump but fell short. He simply wasn't smart enough. Trump was, and is occupied trying to fix real problems. He doesn't schedule  much "gottcha-time" in his daily planner.
I don't mean to dance on Reiner's grave. And, his family members don't deserve the grief they are experiencing.  But, if anyone goes to the trouble to read what Reiner, and others put out there as facts (without the burden proof) it's fully understandable how Trump didn't feel the need to sugarcoat his statement.

The link in my post above from yesterday has a compilation of Reiner's Hate-Trump Twitter/X posts. Reiner was Trump-obsessed, especially during the 2020 Presidential campaign and Covid. Reiner blamed Trump for the people who died of Covid - as did DU-folk, BTW - but in none of his posts that I slogged through did Reiner explain how Trump could have kept Covid out of the US (I wonder if Reiner denounced Trump's January 31, 2020 China travel ban as racist).

Rob Reiner's Disturbing Final Hours, Plus a Touching Tribute From James Woods

On the Saturday night before the couple's murders, they were attending a Christmas party at the home of former talk show host Conan O'Brien. Nick was also apparently in attendance, and he got into a "very loud argument" with his parents during the party. A witness told People magazine that "Nick was freaking everyone out, acting crazy, kept asking people if they were famous." 

Apparently, the argument was over money. "Rob wouldn’t agree to give him the money because he knows his son has a serious drug addiction and was lying about it," the witness claimed. "Rob was saying no, and they got in a big fight."

Witnesses also say the couple left the party shortly after, though it's not clear if Nick went with them. However, the LA Times reports that there was no sign of forced entry into the home after the murders, so it's possible they took him to their house.

Actor James Woods appeared on Jesse Watters Primetime on Monday night and gave an especially touching tribute to his relationship with the late actor-director ... . 

Woods said that Reiner "literally" saved his career at a time when a studio didn't want to put him in a movie. Reiner believed Woods was perfect for the part and fought for him and eventually won.

"And we did Ghosts of Mississippi together, and I went from really being basically out of a job to getting an Academy Award nomination, and I give all the credit to Rob," he said.

Quote

I said, "Look, let me explain something about Rob Reiner so that you know."

First of all, I judge people by how they treat me, and Rob Reiner was a godsend in my life. We got along great. We loved each other. We had more fun together doing a very serious subject. It was a way to kind of get through it. And he was always on my side.

But when people would say to me, "Well, what do you think of his politics?"

I would say, "I think Rob Reiner is a great patriot."

Do I agree with some of or many of his ideas on how that patriotism should be enacted to celebrate the America that we both love? No. But he doesn't agree with me either, but he also respects my patriotism.

And yet Reiner proclaimed that people like me who voted for Trump are racists and White Supremacists. Reiner hated 10s of millions of people he never met because he disagreed with their political views.

JK Rowling Strikes Again, Rips LGBT Crowd After Rapist Targets Girls in Mixed Gender Changing Rooms

https://pjmedia.com/michaelcantrell/2025/12/15/jk-rowling-strikes-again-rips-lgbt-crowd-after-rapist-targets-girls-in-mixed-gender-changing-rooms-n4947112

Author J.K. Rowling, creator of the wildly popular Harry Potter books, is once again ripping deep into the heart and soul of the LGBTQ+ movement after a recent study revealed a rise in the number of women and girls raped and sexually assaulted in mixed-gender changing rooms across the United Kingdom. How many times have leftists received warnings about this? And yet they continue to champion policies that allow men who identify as transgender to enter women-only spaces.
...
A new report from The Telegraph states, “New police data show that at least 16 rapes, 80 sexual assaults and 65 acts of voyeurism occurred in sports centres in 2023, equating to three offences a week.” Even one crime is too many. Unfortunately, these numbers will continue to rise as long as authorities allow biological males to share changing rooms and bathrooms with biological females.

Rowling cited the data as proof that women have not been “lying” about their desire for women-only spaces. When the left accuses these women of dishonesty, it exposes how hollow its so-called “pro-women” stance truly is.

“Bear with me here, but it’s almost as though girls and women who want female-only spaces aren’t scaremongering, hysterical, lying bigots after all,” Rowling wrote in an X post on Friday. The Women’s Rights Network (WRN) sponsored the study, which also found that many of the assaults and rapes occurred in mixed-gender changing areas—spaces the report describes as a “magnet for sexual predators.”

Rowling is quite liberal, but she proudly "fails" Progs' current Proggier-Than-Thou shibboleths test. I'm guessing she also might not share Progs' Free-Speech-For-Me-But-Not-For-Thee views.

FBI repeatedly warned DOJ didn't have probable cause to raid Trump home: 'Not been corroborated'

...

A few weeks later, FBI agents raised more concerns, including about the legality searching Trump's personal residence at the Mar-a-Lago residence, the memos show.

I let them (Biden DOJ) know we are not in agreement for PC (probably cause) on the SW (search warrant) and that we already had an Ops Plan in place that will/can be quickly updated between FBI/MM and FBI/WF," the July 2022 memo said. "However, WF- does not believe we havee PC for the 45 0ffice or the bedroom due to recency and issues of boxes versus classified information. Therefore, as we are in disagreement on the SW and its scope, we are not yet finalizing a SW as we are missing relevant logistics and details."

Summarizing, if I understand this correctly, the actual field office people did not believe there was probably cause for the search warrant. LIEden's DOJ, however, found a cooperative judge and ordered the search in spite of the lack of probable cause.
