Robert Duvall, the legendary actor whose career has spanned over six decades, has died at 95, his wife announced

Sunday musical break. Some amazing slide guitar playin' by the flashing fingers of Roy Rogers (not the famous cowboy). Roy is a California native and I had the great pleasure to meet him once. Lovely (and talented) guy. Brace yourself for: Avalanche

This is so embarrassing. The cartel drones Pam Bondi was sounding the alarm about during the hearing turned out to be… party balloons. This administration is so incompetent.

If Pam Bondi was a waitress.

@heathergtv has a response for Bondi 👏🏼 🤣 #CulverCity

Timeline cleanse. With all the insanity raging in the world right now, perhaps it's a good idea to take a break for 3:14 to – Imagine. John Lennon died in 1980. He's been dead now longer than he was alive. But his words and music, and his legacy, live on.

Likely-historic photo by NBC News of all the Epstein victims asked to raise their hands if they've not yet been asked to meet with the DOJ as Bondi testifies in foreground

Make America Melt Again I’m old and grew up in deep red Utah, but this video is the kind of thing they taught us as kids. I hate what the “Conservative Movement” has done to my country. One of the reasons I live in Europe now. “Bring me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses, yearning to …”

This is a terrific thread for anyone (like me) who is not very familiar with Bad Bunny and his work. Very interesting. Becky is REALLY into it. Her excitement about the whole thing is charming, and informative.

I'm an American living in Europe and don't give a damn about the Super Sports Ball. But I did want to see what the Bad Bunny kerfuffle was all about. So I watched the halftime show. I couldn't understand many of the words, but the joy was plain to see. Open your eyes, and your heart, America.

I live in Spain, and for some inexplicable reason Star Trek: Starfleet Academy is delayed three weeks here. I've only just had a chance to see the first two episodes. I have to say, as a long time ST fan, I quite liked it. And I think Holly Hunter was an inspired choice as the lead. Boldly go.

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

I’m sharing Aliya’s entire opening statement. We owe it to her, and those who no longer have a voice, to watch. youtu.be/zrcW8SZtYpI?...

Are you smarter than Mike Johnson? All signs point to yes.

A mother’s confession on SNL😂👇

Always wanting revenge and retribution.

Sad to hear of Catherine O'Hara's passing. As everyone is saying, she truly was one of the greats. I've known of her since the SCTV days and enjoyed everything she's been in since. She could do it all and never failed to deliver the funny. And so natural, the funny was just organic to her.

If Springsteen is writing a song about you like this, you are well and truly cooked. "Their claim was self defense, sir Just don’t believe your eyes It’s our blood and bones And these whistles and phones Against Miller and Noem’s dirty lies" The Boss has spoken.

This is the BEST explanation I have seen so far.

“I watched him die… then I watched them maneuver his body like a rag doll— only to discover it was because they wanted to count the bullet wounds and see how many they ‘got’, like he was a deer.”

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers. This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

Another ICE shooting, another round of Republican buts and prayers

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

We have been told for nearly 30 years that America needed to tolerate mass shootings because the broad availability of guns would help us defend ourselves from an overreaching federal government. That day has come. The people who said this are supporting the federal agents. Many have joined them.

By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.

My name is Jack Smith. I am not one of them. I wish to save the world.

1. This short thread is about the issue that dominates almost every aspect of politics, and causes or exacerbates most of our problems: the extreme wealth of a small number of people. Here’s the amazing thing: almost the entire political class aligns with the ultra-rich against the rest. 🧵1/10

My name is Jack Smith. I am not one of them. I wish to save the world.

In this vengeful, crazed message to P.M of Norway, Trump links his demand to seize Greenland to the fact that he didn’t win a Nobel Peace Prize. When a president is old & no longer able to make decisions in the interest of his country, we need to impeach him before he inflicts further damage

What we are seeing in Minnesota is what authoritarianism looks like in real time. Racism, dehumanization, and state-sanctioned violence are tearing at the foundation of this country.

Hey @jodyhamilton.bsky.social, your Mom did good on the season finale of Palm Royale. I watched her show (along with most of America) back in the day and it makes me happy that she's still healthy and working. She is eternal. Also enjoy you on @bobcesca.bsky.social & @thepoliticsbar.bsky.social

Watched the Season 2 finale of #PalmRoyale last night. Season 2 was a bit all over the place but it came together nicely at the end. A real treat was an unexpected, ethereal song by the legendary Carol Burnett that tied things together. And keep an eye out for the earlobe tug. The true GOAT.

Not a ground war in Asia, but still.

Best TikTok thing going is the two dudes trying food from every country without leaving NYC. If you haven’t seen them yet, it’s incredible. My favorite so far is last week’s. Legit got me emotional.

Abolishing ICE is the bare minimum. We need to dismantle DHS. We need restitution. And we need trials.

Happy 81st birthday to Steven Stills. Part of the legendary triumvirate of Crosby, Stills and Nash and a towering talent in his own right. Here's a memorable performance of Suite Judy Blue Eyes, with Stills tearing it up on acoustic guitar. Video quality isn't great, but the magic shines thru.

Wow. This is a very insightful essay. It illustrates one of the many layers of meaning in It's A Wonderful Life. I'm glad I read it before watching it tonight, as I do every year. I may read it again afterward.

Happy Winter solstice everyone. Things are looking sunnier from here on out (in the northern hemisphere anyway).

Sadly, not @theonion.com.
