Twitchy favorite James Woods shared an email from his agent on Thursday where the agent, on July 4th no less, informed the conservative actor that he was dropping him as a client in the name of patriotism:
So this email from my agent (a political liberal) today… pic.twitter.com/RLXUWi9no8

What a douche move, but Woods was all class in his response:
My response: “Dear Ken, I don’t actually. I was thinking if you’re feeling patriotic, you would appreciate free speech and one’s right to think as an individual. Be that as it may, I want to thank you for all your hard work and devotion on my behalf. Be well.” https://t.co/nEe8OMaWb2

Well said!
Jimmy Woods provides a pitch-perfect response to his agent's decision to drop him because he was "feeling patriotic." Said agent, of course, (like so many others) is too cowardly to pick up a phone and say what he had to directly to him, opts to inform via email instead. Enjoy. https://t.co/Q2HXpdOfgl

Even lib comic and Daily Beast contributor Dean Obeidallah questioned the agent’s move:
James Woods is a jerk who has trolled me on Twitter to get his right wing fans to attack me. So I don't like him. I must say though Im not sure why his agent would've fired him like that. Why let Woods become the victim? Seems like we are missing a piece of info

And so did the Resistance doc!
I’m going to go out on a limb here, but even though James Woods has vile, nasty pro-Trump politics, nobody should be fired or blacklisted for their political views. It sets a bad, unethical precedent for everyone. pic.twitter.com/2saYmwkQFo

And the left really can’t help itself, can it?
The left keeps eating itself. If you were an agent, wouldn't you kill to have a talent like James Woods? Idiots. #JamesWoods https://t.co/K70R7oQpqE
