Without showing my wife the screen asked her what he favorite dessert in NYC is … this is it!

It is all a scam. Flying on the taxpayers dime. Everywhere.

We are living through dark, disturbing and dangerous times, but do not despair — the cavalry is coming! Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band will be taking the stage this spring from Minneapolis to California to Texas to Washington, D.C. for the Land of Hope And Dreams American Tour.

This would be over $800 BILLION a year the feds would assume. Never happening.

Frederick Wiseman, Legendary Documentary Filmmaker, Dies at 96 Frederick Wiseman, the prolific documentarian behind films like 'Titicut Follies' and 'Ex Libris,' died on Monday. He was 96 years old.

Frederick Wiseman touched my life, heart and mind and by coincidence my work. My favorite film of his was In Jackson Heights where I lived for a few years post college … and of course I loved City Hall as so much of my work related to municipalities.

I thought she was going to be in Starfleet Academy 🤷‍♂️

Choked up a bit when I heard there was a ship named after Anton Yelchin.

Fun fact … Mark Strong was in two excellent films called Sunshine. The other was about Hungary in the 20th Century where Ralph Fiennes played multiple characters.

Memo to whoever had the idea for the Ryan Gosling film … the sun burning out has already been done by Danny Boyle in one of the great sci-fi films of all time … Sunshine. Cillian Murphy, Mark Strong, Rose Byrne and Michelle Yeoh were all fantastic.

Same for me with the 22 Pro I have. So much fun to drive.

Trump meme coin losing over 80% of its value in a year.

This is very very bad for the people who believed his crap …

So many scams. He has to do lots of them because some don’t work so well. See the chart for the scam coin later in the thread.

A not-‘toned down’ Trump regime prepares for ethnic cleansing in Ohio A plan for immigration raids this week on thousands of Haitians in Springfield, Ohio shows that nothing has changed.

Trump's immigration human-rights nightmare isn't pulling back. It's about to get much worse

A planned op this week in Springfield, Ohio targeting hard-working Haitians who came here the right way is nothing less than an ethnic cleansing on U.S. soil

He is basically suing because of his own incompetent leadership. 🤦‍♂️
