White House issues scathing response to Mark Ruffalo's comments about 'lying' Vance and 'pedophile' Trump

The White House has reacted to Mark Ruffalo's comments about JD Vance and Donald Trump.

Last night, while on the red carpet at the Golden Globes, Ruffalo was interviewed by USA Today and was quizzed about the 'BE GOOD' pin he was wearing to accompany his tuxedo.

"This is for Renee Nicole Good, who was murdered," the actor said.

Good was the 37-year-old woman who was fatally shot by ICE officer Jonathan Ross in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on January 7.

Ross was part of the raids going on in Good's neighborhood and video footage shows her behind the wheel of her car. An officer tries to open the car door, but Good attempted to speed off, prompting Ross to fire at her.

In the wake of Good's death and its circumstances, Ruffalo wore the 'BE GOOD' pin alongside several other celebrities at the awards night.

The Department of Homeland Security has defended the ICE officer's actions, claiming that Good tried to run over the officer and his use of force was justified.

While explaining the significance of his pin, Ruffalo also had some strong words, accusing Vice President JD Vance of 'lying about what's happening'.

Turning his attention to Trump, the actor continued to rant: "We're in the middle of a war with Venezuela that we illegally invaded. [Trump's] telling the world that international law doesn't matter to him.

"The only thing that matters to him is his own morality, but the guy is a convicted felon; a convicted rapist."

"He's a pedophile," Ruffalo continued. "He's the worst human being. If we're relying on this guy's morality for the most powerful country in the world, then we're all in a lot of trouble."

For context, Trump was convicted on 34 felony counts for falsifying business records in May 2024 (via The Independent). That same year, he was also found liable for sexually abusing E. Jean Carroll in 1996 by a jury; however, he wasn't convicted due to it being a civil suit.

Trump has also never been charged with a sex crime, including pedophilia.

Steven Cheung, Assistant to the President and White House Director of Communications, has responded to Ruffalo's comments.

He penned on Twitter alongside a Page Six article about Ruffalo and other stars making anti-ICE remarks: "Poor thing Mark Ruffalo, star of She-Hulk, is one of the worst actors in the business.

"More impressively, he's an even worse human being by spewing outright lies because deep down inside, he hates himself for knowingly subjecting the public to his god awful performance."

Ouch.

UNILAD has contacted Ruffalo's representatives and has previously contacted the White House for comment.
