‘Star Trek’s’ Robert Picardo Wants Presidents’ Day ‘Cancelled’ After Justice System Was ‘cancelled’

Robert Picardo, best known for his role in Star Trek: Voyager, has sparked controversy after suggesting that Presidents’ Day should be canceled. The actor, who has been outspoken in his criticism of President Donald Trump, made his remarks in a post on the social media platform BlueSky.
In his post, Picardo wrote, “Being that paper straws, The Gulf of Mexico, and our justice system have been recently canceled, let’s cancel Presidents’ Day.” His statement appears to be a jab at what he sees as the erosion of the justice system under Trump’s leadership.
