Amber Heard serves sweet, sweet revenge on politician who kicked her dogs out of Australia

BY JOHNNY LIEU From Mashable

Some, well specifically Amber Heard, might just call it a classic case of karma.

The actress fired off a tweet on Tuesday aimed at Australian deputy prime minister Barnaby Joyce, offering to send him a crate of “New Zealand’s finest kiwifruit” to comfort him in his hour of need.

“Assuming this passes his biosecurity laws,” Heard quipped.

Back in 2015, Joyce threatened to put down Pistol and Boo — the dogs of a once-married Johnny Depp and Heard — unless they left the country. They had been smuggled in, contravening Australia’s biosecurity laws.

After quite the fracas, the pair were punished with an incredibly awkward and unforgettable apology video.

Now the shoe’s on the other foot: Joyce has been in the spotlight being outed as a citizen of New Zealand, which is a big no-no if you’re a sitting member of parliament, according to Australia’s constitution.

If Australia’s supreme court rules against him, Joyce will be ruled ineligible to be a senator, sparking potential havoc in the country’s government.

So somehow, more than a year on from the whole debacle, Heard has the last laugh. Never lose hope on those grudges, folks.
