Americans should expect to see more of actor Dennis Quaid during television commercial breaks, according to a new report by Politico.

"The health department is moving quickly on a highly unusual advertising campaign to 'defeat despair' about the coronavirus, a $300 million-plus effort that was shaped by a political appointee close to President Donald Trump and executed in part by close allies of the official, using taxpayer funds," Politico's Dan Diamond reported Friday.

Damn how disappointing, I rewatch Day after Tomorrow as a guilty pleasure a lot, not I gotta know in real life he's a climate denier. What a shame.

How is this not using tax payer money for a political campaign. Isn't there something better to spend this huge amount of money to help battle against covid? Is this because their campaign is low on funds?

Welp, no more Enemy Mine for me. Says a lot when you're from the same family as Randy Quaid, and you're the crazy one.

"Senior administration officials have already recorded interviews with celebrities like actor Dennis Quaid and singer CeCe Winans, and the Health and Human Services Department also has pursued television host Dr. Mehmet Oz and musician Garth Brooks for roles in the campaign," Politoc noted. "The public awareness campaign, which HHS is seeking to start airing before Election Day on Nov. 3, was largely conceived and organized by Michael Caputo, the health department's top spokesperson who took medical leave last week and announced on Thursday that he had been diagnosed with cancer."

My bestie used to work at a hospital in Los Angeles that a lot of Hollywood celebrities stayed at during alcohol and drug rehab. Among these was Dennis Quaid. She doesn't lack for stories about what an asshole he was.
