The owner of the Grand Lake Theatre in Oakland has added two free morning screenings of “The Manchurian Candidate” this weekend, citing escalating Russia collusion allegations against President Trump.
Grand Lake owner Allen Michaan has been open about his left-leaning political stances in the past, often expressing them in giant letters on the theater’s marquee — on Thanksgiving he crafted an anti-Trump message that ended “JAIL TO THE CHIEF!!”
Michaan said he set up the screenings, at 9:30 a.m. Saturday and Sunday, Jan. 26-27, “in honor of the cascading revelations regarding our treasonous president.”
