‘I lost everything!’ Chris Sarandon on Dog Day Afternoon, ex-wife Susan and the fraud that took his life savings
At 83, the star of The Princess Bride, Fright Night and so much more is carving out a new career as a podcaster. He remembers the movies that defined him – and working with ‘malevolent’ Michael Winner...
Pleased to hear Chris Sarandon is doing well. He sounds like one of the good guys, feet firmly planted on the ground after a career full of ups (Fright Night! The Princess Bride! Dog Day Afternoon!) & downs. Also, IMO, still photogenic enough for a comeback (but only if that's what he wants, obv).

If it weren’t for Comey, Trump likely would never have been elected president.
This timeline is nuts.

We should be grateful to the Lord to now be blessed with having an American on the world stage who embodies good and not evil.

I agree that there should be more positive male role models for young men, but Josh Olson is one of the biggest misogynists I've ever encountered. His aggressive hatred of female Democrats contributes to the very problem he's criticizing.

She's late to the party, George. She - and every other journalist - have let him get away with this shit for far too long.

Even though he took an oath, clearly, he never understood the words he was repeating. AND also refused to place his tiny hand on the Bible! How ludicrous is that for a scumbag that claims to be a Christian!!!

I disagree. Welker let the evil orange ulcer get away with this secretion: "I don't know" it said when asked if it would uphold the Constitution. She should have mentioned that preserving, protecting and defending the effing Constitution is part of its oath! My fifty cents from Germany

Given that most, if not all MAGA merch is made in China, I'll be really curious to see what happens to their pricing and availability 😁

Sasha Stone, an Original Oscars Blogger, Takes on Hollywood
Sasha Stone, who has been covering awards season since the ’90s, has recast herself as a voice against what she perceives as the industry’s liberal status quo.
This New York Times article about the disgraced Sasha Stone goes far too easy on her, neglecting to delve into her virulent transphobia, xenophobia, racism, and why so many of her once-loyal staff have abandoned her website. The kid-gloves approach is insufficient.

And to think we could have had a sane, serious government run by an intelligent person who would have acted in the best interests of Americans, and not Vladimir Putin.

Apart from showing how evil he is yesterday, Trump showed how he’s actually a bad—moronic—dealmaker.
I mean, you’ve got some guy coming in to give you his country’s minerals. Wouldn’t you want to get him to sign first before berating him on global television?

Musk’s Purges Suddenly Take a Horrific Turn—and Wreck an Ugly MAGA Lie
We can now be depressingly confident that their mass cuts are killing people.
Horrific: One of the USAID programs Trump just terminated was set to deliver lifesaving treatment to hundreds of thousands of starving kids abroad. Much of it is now sitting in a Georgia warehouse.
Rubio's promise to preserve urgent assistance was a lie.
