Trump Has No Plan for the Iranian People The mere act of bombing Iran will not by itself create a stable regime.

The fate of the Iranian people has never been of great concern to American administrations, and this one is no exception

If America still had the rule of law, this would be the easiest prosecution ever, but we all know absolutely nothing will happen.

During the U.S.-Israeli attack in Iran on Saturday, dozens of people, most of them likely children, were killed when a strike hit a girls’ elementary school in Minab and a high school in Tehran, according to Iranian health officials, state media and a human rights group. trib.al/y3MsQLC

New GI Joe Movie In The Works, But There's A Disappointing Catch - SlashFilm Paramount is developing a new live-action G.I. Joe movie, but it’s hired Max Landis (a writer with multiple allegations of sexual misconduct) to work on it.

Paramount Skydance is anti-#MeToo. They're in with alleged sexual predators. There are so many talented writers and filmmakers out there who could make a meal of these franchises, and the studio is bouncing back to toxic sex pests like Max Landis and Brett Ratner?

This was my response when my agents asked if I wanted to pitch on this reboot back in November. I really hope more creatives do the same so that the likes of Max Landis are all they can hire. I may not make an honest buck but I’m a hundred per cent American and I don’t work for no two-bit Nazi.

We've handed a vital library over to white supremacist vandals. Feels like we're nearing the last scene of Truffaut's FAHRENHEIT 451.

CNN has a solid, well-funded newsroom, regardless of the network’s editorial slant. a lot of good reporters will lose their jobs, and the public will lose all the stories they would’ve reported. and they are one of the last newsrooms to pay for costly but critical on the ground war correspondents.

Netflix Backs Out Of Warner Bros. Deal, Paramount Set To Acquire Historic Studio - SlashFilm Netflix is no longer pursuing the acquisition of Warner Bros., paving the way for Paramount to take over the historic studio.

Fired this off on the looming Paramount Skydance-WBD sale. I'll have more thoughts, but this is awful.

I can't get over the fact that the Boston Massacre happened because colonists threw snowballs at Redcoats, who opened fire, and that we have spent 250 years teaching children that this was an overreaction deserving of revolution.
