🔥June 21, 1977. Elvis Presley was in catastrophic physical decline, filmed by CBS cameras in Rapid City, South Dakota, just six weeks before his death. 🎹💔
Backstage, musicians and the television crew quietly worried he didn't have the stamina to make it through the concert. When he sat down at the grand piano to sing "Unchained Melody," his longtime aide Charlie Hodge had to kneel beside him on the floor just to steady the microphone.
Then Elvis built into the climax.
Stripping away the Vegas showmanship, he reached deep into his chest voice and delivered an effortless, operatic high note that stunned everyone in the arena. You can see the exhaustion in his face, but his vocal instrument remained completely untouchable until the very end. It wasn't just a concert routine—it was an artist pouring the last reserve of his life directly into the song.
Does any live television vocal match the raw emotional weight of this final performance?
Llevaba tres años sin llamarla. Sabía que debía hacerlo. Sabía cómo. Sabía qué decir. Cada domingo cogía el teléfono. Cada domingo lo dejaba. No era difícil. Era exactamente eso lo que lo hacía imposible. El domingo siguiente, igual.

The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect. Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.
This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.
