'Sopranos' Star Joe Pantoliano Plans Move to Portugal Amid Political Discontent

Joe Pantoliano, known for his role in 'The Sopranos,' has publicly expressed discomfort with the current U.S. political climate, citing President Donald Trump's administration as a key factor in his consideration to relocate abroad. Pantoliano and his wife are seriously exploring a move to Portugal, having recently returned from a trip there and initiated steps to secure visas. He voiced concerns over rising instability in America, drawing parallels with a recent 18-hour power outage in Portugal, which he suspects was a cyberattack and a potential preview of what could happen in the U.S. Pantoliano emphasized that the political tensions have made it difficult for him to focus on his work, and he keeps emergency cash at home in case of sudden upheaval. He joins a growing list of American celebrities contemplating or making moves overseas due to dissatisfaction with domestic politics. Whether he will permanently relocate remains undecided, but his preparations indicate serious intent.
