.

Ruffalo was asked by a USA Today reporter about a black-and-white pin Ruffalo wore on his tuxedo that stated simply, “Be Good.” The actor, who was nominated for a Golden Globe for his work on HBO’s Task, didn’t hold back.


“It’s for Renee Nicole Good, who was murdered,” he said, referring to the 37-year-old Minnesota woman shot by an ICE agent Wednesday. He was one of several celebrities who wore similar pins to celebrate Good and reject ICE.

The Avengers actor went on to assail Vice President J.D. Vance’ claim that the shooting was self-defense: “We have a vice president is lying about what’s happening,” Ruffalo said. (No charges have been filed in Good’s killing.)


The actor added: “We’re in the middle of a war with Venezuela that we illegally invaded,” and continued by saying that Trump is “telling the world that international law doesn’t matter to him. The only thing that matters to him is his own morality.” (Trump told The New York Times this past week, when asked if there were any limits on his global power, “Yeah, there is one thing. My own morality. My own mind. It’s the only thing that can stop me.”)

Ruffalo said Trump’s “morality” may not be the best barometer: “The guy is a convicted felon, or convicted rapist. He’s a pedophile. 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.”
