Sean Penn again! Damnit gadfly, just go away.

"Ukrainian Air Force thanks Sean Penn for billionaire rallying cry"

Billionaires of the world unite!

You may recognise the name Sean Penn from award-winning movies such as Mystic River or Milk.

But the California-born actor has also become well-known for his political and social activism, from befriending Hugo Chavez to secretly interviewing drug-kingpin-on-the-lam El Chapo.

Most recently, Penn has exhaustively advocated for the US to provide more support to Ukraine than it already is.

He has met with President Zelensky, pushed for a Nato-imposed no-fly zone, and even threatened to melt down his Oscar if Zelensky was not invited to speak at the Academy Awards.

Melt down his Oscar. That will get their attention.

In his latest exploit on Thursday, Penn called on billionaires to step up and buy military aircraft to help Ukraine, laying out how much it would cost. The tweet prompted a response from Ukraine's air force.

Better [?] to hired some of the warplanes and pilots of some of these DACT private miliatry contractor concerns. Mercenaries of the sky. Fly F-16 and Mirage 2000 somewhat antiquated warplanes but with very experienced and talented pilots at the controls. See my blog entry with many additional embedded links the DACT PMC connection.

Personally I consider this Sean to be insufferable! See previous Sean Penn topic blog entries:
