brett kavanaugh pulp fiction samuel l jackson

Samuel L. Jackson might know better than anyone when is an appropriate time to throw out an MF-bomb; he’s certainly done so in a lot of his movies. Jackson endorsed freshman Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s use of the word after Tlaib was criticized last week for using it to describe President Donald Trump at an event in Washington, D.C. last Thursday.

“@RashidaTlaib I just wanna Wholeheartedly endorse your use of & clarity of purpose when declaring your M—ing goal last week,” Jackson said on Twitter Sunday night. “Calling that M—ah a M—er is not an issue, calling that Mu—qah President Is!!!”

Among his liberal and creative spellings of the word, Jackson also added a hashtag that said: “M—-er is too good to waste on that cancer sore.”

The newly sworn-in Democratic congresswoman from Michigan said in front of a crowd of supporters last week, “And when your son looks at you and says, ‘Momma, look you won. Bullies don’t win.’ And I said, ‘Baby, they don’t.’ Because we’re going to go in there, we’re going to impeach the motherf—-er.”

Tlaib’s use of the phrase sparked a debate, with many in the media and other senators and representatives weighing in on the matter. President Trump, who has used the word in the past, called Tlaib’s comments “disrespectful to the United States.”

“I think she dishonored herself and her family using language like that in front of her son and whoever else was there,” Trump said at a Rose Garden press conference last week. “I thought that was a great dishonor to her and her family.”

During his college years, Jackson became involved in the Civil Rights movement and served as an usher at Martin Luther King, Jr.'s funeral after his assassination in 1967. The assassination moved him to become more deeply involved in the movement: "I was angry about the assassination, but I wasn’t shocked by it. I knew that change was going to take something different—not sit-ins, not peaceful coexistence," he told Parade in 2005.

Jackson was expelled from Morehouse after he and his peers held several members of the college's board of trustees hostage, including MLK's father, to demand reform in the school's curriculum and governance. The expulsion galvanized Jackson and he became involved with the black power movement. However, after FBI agents visited his house and told his mother that he was not likely to survive the year if he remained in Atlanta, his mother put him on a plane to Los Angeles. He returned to Morehouse in 1971 to receive his acting degree.

Jackson made his film debut in the 1972 independent feature "Together for Days," a blaxploitation movie about the relationship between a white woman and a black radical, but he did not achieve stardom until his role in Quentin Tarantino's breakout 1994 crime drama "Pulp Fiction."

In 1974, Jackson met his future wife LaTanya Richardson at a student rehearsal in Atlanta. It was love at first sight: "We started talking, and boom! I knew she was the person for me. From then on, we were always together, and we’ve stayed that way," he told Parade in a 2005 interview. The couple have been together for more than 40 years and have one daughter.

Jackson entered the New York theater scene in 1976, where he hung out with the likes of Denzel Washington, Wesley Snipes, and Alfre Woodard. His time in the theater remains central to Jackson's acting: “I’m a theater actor. It’s a different breed. Actors create characters. Movie stars are eye candy. They come and go.”
