@warnock.senate.gov: "As a man of faith, here's something that I have noticed about evil... Evil always gets a little bit too impressed with itself. It's filled up with hubris. Evil always goes too far, and because it goes too far, it contains within itself the seed of its own destruction."

Just bone chilling. And when the imprisonment of critics is combined with his offer to enrich and immunize his loyalists, this is how democracies die fast. But it's still our choice. Don't let him silence you.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

For this week's #ThursdayFilmRec 🗃️🎥🍿🎬 #HATM Watch (or Rewatch) the classic (and ever relevant) film: "All the President's Men" (1976) - Dir. Alan J. Pakula www.youtube.com/watch?v=DC3Y...

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system. I am not fearful — I am fearless. We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

All to cover up the Epstein files.

i know grand juries have a relatively low bar for bringing indictments but i find myself wondering WTF is up with some of these grand jurors

RFK Jr on Tylenol and autism: "It is not proof. We're doing the studies to make the proof."

Mabel & I hope all our fellow Californians vote YES on Prop. 50! #FightFireWithFire

AI being shoved down our throats everywhere is exhausting, but I believe it's genuinely a positive signal. Tech companies aren't doing this because it's successful technology that is making them money. They're doing it because it's not and they're not. This is an extinction burst, not real growth.

C-SPAN caller to Mike Johnson: "Hearing you say that 'everyone is smiling' in cities where troops have been rolled into feels dystopian and insane watching the response to it."

Written and directed by @realgdt.bsky.social, FRANKENSTEIN is coming to select theaters on October 17 and debuting on @netflix.com November 7. We're thrilled to share that 'Frankenstein' will be the first film released under our relaunched MR. X banner. #Frankenstein #GuillermoDelToro #VFX #MrX

What Governor Pritzker is doing is right for his state, but it is vital for the Republic.

J. Lo is gettin' a bum rap, I say! She's great in KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN! So is Tonatiuh, who nearly walks off with the movie. Diego Luna rounds out a trifecta of excellent performances. The movie musicals lover in me dug it. Yes, I saw Chita do it on B'way. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/10/09/a...

“Life can strip the humility away from us if we’re not careful, and if we’re lucky, we have a chance to earn it back.” -- Delighted to speak with #LukeMatheny about adapting #CharlottesWeb for #HBOMax @scriptmagazine.bsky.social . scriptmag.com/writer-luke-...

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square. Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files. Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

My second book, Colours of Wes Anderson, is out today. I am sick in bed with a cold. My favourite part of writing a book is the Acknowledgements because I get to tell everyone about people I love

Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act. I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but you need to be aware of this imminent danger. Let me explain what’s going on.

This is exactly why ICE needs to be unmasked and ID’d — like cops. 📌 Cases of ICE impersonators this year alone outnumber the last four presidential terms combined.

"A blank piece of paper is God's way of telling us how hard it is to be God." -Sidney Sheldon #scriptsky

it’s all just a grift

My next book will be a biography of Jack Nicholson, written as an epic story of the transformation of the movie industry and modern masculinity from the 1950s to the present, with Nicholson as the main character. The title: Leading Man.

film producers should not refer to movies as "content."

It’s been over two weeks! Swear her in! And release the Epstein files.

Johnson and Lauer are stalling. If Grijalva isn’t sworn in, it gives them time to pressure one of the 4 Republicans who signed the discharge petition to flip. The reason they’re working this hard to shield the Epstein files is because Trump’s name is all over them. RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

Script Analysis: “Women Talking” (2022) — Scene-By-Scene Breakdown. A great way to analyze a screenplay and its story structure. gointothestory.blcklst.com/script-analy... #movies #screenwriting

BREAKING In a new video, Dolly Parton, the Queen of America, says she’s going to be ok.

I'm a "glass is half-full" kinda guy, so let's look at the upside of the Riyadh Comedy Festival: We never, ever have to even pretend to take any of these "anti-woke" "free speech warriors" seriously, ever again. New from me at @opinion.bloomberg.com (gift link): bit.ly/4h51JjF

The MMR vaccine is one of the most stunningly effective medical therapeutics in existence. It’s also safer than most of your everyday activities. This is simply an attempt to stop people from vaccinating.

This is the way www.nytimes.com/2025/10/08/o...

20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in. Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators. The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

“Could?” Let me be clear. A $100,000 H1B will kill our ability to do world class science in the US.

thank you brett kavanaugh!

All these headlines saying “Bondi Goes on the Attack.” Really? She wasn’t in the octagon, she’s a public servant who was at an oversight hearing. Her job was to answer questions. She refused to do her job. Stop glamorizing and whitewashing this moronic, performative bullshit.

Did anyone else see this today and wonder wtf happened? Oopsie, Stephen.

The guy who literally incited an insurrection is now threatening to use the Insurrection Act to torment Americans who do not support him. (…because he literally incited an insurrection)

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Kristi Noem confronts enemy combatants in the Portland war zone today.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

This strikes me as pretty bad

“.. On closer inspection, however, it turned out that the image was not a photograph of a real event in Portland, but instead a fabrication created by combining two photographs of scenes that unfolded in South America nearly a decade apart ..” @theguardian.com www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Brutal.

Pam Bondi admits she spoke to Apple to "get the ICEBlock app taken down." Sounds an awful lot like coercion to suppress disfavored speech to me. A clear violation of the 1st Amendment.

IN HONOR OF FRIENDSHIP MONTH: djt: "We have certain things in common, Jeffrey." Epstein: "Yes we do, come to think of it." djt: "A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday- and may every day be another wonderful secret." And by "wonderful secret", he means raping children. #PedoPrez

I forget-- who controls the White House, Senate, and House?

She is not doing well
