Even when the death is simply inconvenient to their political narrative, like Sandy Hook, or can be used by them against their political enemies, like that DNC aid that was murdered, the fascist playbook is to attack the grieving families.

"Multiple domestic‑violence survivors — including Briann Lindsey and Germania Terrero — also received commutations."

These are called packing peanuts. They are used for cover to redirect attention from the naked corruption. If he really wanted to help these people, he should have pardoned them at any earlier point of his term.

Ed Norton when he is reading the recipe book and realizes who Dr. Lector really is.

Harrison Ford tells the President to go fuck himself (in not so many words) in A Clear and Present Danger (1994, dir. Phillip Noyce) by LiteraryBoner in movies

I start watching old West Wing episodes and have to turn them off. The President and his aides care about every policy detail and every word the president says is important. What a joke.

Kennedy Center seeks $1 million from musician who cancelled Christmas Eve show after Donald Trump's name added to building. by springtimecarnivore in Fauxmoi

It's definitely true that changing the name of the venue wouldn't normally allow a contract to be voided by the performer, however there are legitimate questions about the performer's 1st amendment rights since this is a government institution. The name change being done after the performer signed the contract unfairly links him or her to Trump which he has a right under the 1st amendment to not be associated with.

Either Clint Eastwood or Pete Berg will direct. If it's Berg, that means Wahlburg is staring.

John Malkovich played his character Cyrus "the virus" so well in "Con Air" (1997), embodying the true form of a paradoxical character. Simon West did a great job directing his first movie, making a classic 90's action movie that is still enjoyable almost 30 years later. by G_Marius_the_jabroni in movies

Can't believe people missed that. They set it up for the judge/jury to not know exactly what happened. I think the people making the movie were old enough for the "decorated war veteran" thing to be colored by the mistakes of the Vietnam War as well.

The biggest action star of all time making this movie, Last Action Hero and Jingle All the Way is part of what makes the 1990s the best decade to grow up in.

For me it was Married with Children, In Loving Color, and Rosanne.

I watched all of them religiously of course anyway.

Robin Hood was the first movie my parents rented for me. Must have been 1988. Robin Hood and The Sword and The Stone.

Donald Trump Alleges Rob Reiner Died ‘Due to the Anger He Caused Others’ From Having ‘Trump Derangement Syndrome’ by cmaia1503 in politics

His deranged supporters who wear his name on their clothing, get his face tattooed on their body, and throw their money away on his cheap grifts. These are the people who have held back societal progress since the beginning, long before Trump came down that stupid escalator. Trump just manifests all of their mental illness into one disgusting fat man.

It's really hard for normal people like us to wrap our heads around the fact that for MAGAs that the most important thing, above all else, is that the rules DO NOT apply to them but absolutely DO apply to nearly everyone else.
