Kevin Costner Liz Cheney

Kevin Costner is supporting Wyoming Republican senator Liz Cheney. Liz Cheney is vice chair of the Jan 6 hearings.

The actor stars as the lead John Dutton in the popular Paramount series. Speaking at the launch Paramount+ in the UK, he shared that "most Westerns aren't very good because they reduce themselves to the black hat and the white hat". He appeared to be on the set of the upcoming fifth season of the show.

Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney shared a photo of 'Yellowstone' actor Kevin Costner supporting her reelection.

Costner, who stars in the Paramount show "Yellowstone," considers himself independent. Her opposition to the former president has cost her support within her party, including in her home state of Wyoming. Cheney, who has been in the spotlight for her position on the House Jan. 6 committee investigating the Capitol attack, and her criticism of former President Donald Trump, tweeted on Monday a photo of Costner in a T-shirt that read "I'M FOR LIZ CHENEY."

Yellowstone star Kevin Costner has weighed in on the upcoming mid-terms, endorsing Rep. Liz Cheney (R - Wyo.) in her re-election campaign.

Not everyone was wowed by Kevin Costner's decision to endorse Rep. Liz Cheney in the Wyoming Republican primary.

“The ranch property comfortably sleeps 27 people, and it’s currently available to rent for 36,000 a night.” Also making the rounds was a 2001 photograph showing him shaking hands with Fidel Castro during the filming of “Thirteen Days.” He’s from CA and is a (great) Hollywood actor.” Certainly Ms. Cheney needs all the help she can get. The Montana Talks website said that the “endorsement by the actor is interesting to note, but will not carry much weight with the people of Wyoming. They have never really cared much for celebrity endorsements or endorsements in general.” “Costner doesn’t even make his home in Wyoming and the hit TV show ‘Yellowstone’ that he stars in takes place on that little sliver of Yellowstone that Montana holds,” said Montana Talks radio host Glenn Woods. A self-described independent, Mr. Costner is in fact a rancher, just not in Wyoming. He owns a 160-acre spread in Aspen, Colorado, which Taste of Country described as a “spectacular getaway, complete with a main residence, a lake house and a river house.” Unfortunately for Ms. Cheney, the Oscar-winning actor doesn’t appear to own a home in Wyoming, meaning he can’t vote for her in the primary. The pro-Costner comments included “There are a few out there who believe the country is more important than party, …. like Kevin Costner” and “Glad to see Kevin Costner knows what real American patriotism is.” “Costner is more of a man than most men,” tweeted Mr. Kinzinger. Donald Trump Jr. jumped in by tweeting: “BREAKING: A leftwing carpetbagger from Hollywood endorses a leftwing carpetbagger from Virginia.” Mr. Costner, who plays a Montana rancher on Paramount’s hit streaming series “Yellowstone,” created a political stir by posing for a photo wearing a white T-shirt with the message “I’m for Liz Cheney,” a shot that went viral when the congresswoman posted it Monday on social media.
