Lorenzo Salgado was murdered by ICE 4 months ago today.
Texans have been adding their “I voted” stickers to his memorial in Houston.
I just added mine.
Rep. Jim Clyburn tells @CitizenCohn: "Anybody who is going to be a yes-man for this administration should not get the endorsement of any Democrat and should not get a single vote from any African American."
The most remarkable thing about Amy Acton's childhood isn't what her mother says about her. It's what Amy managed to accomplish despite everything she endured.
Trump…… “Quiet!!!! What's wrong with you? Are you a SICK person?"
Holy shit …. all that pent up anger inside this MFer is going to give him a heart attack…
😳 Trump loses it and SNAPS at a string of reporters, says Ilhan Omar might "go to jail," calls Somalia "a shit house," and boasts that thanks to a new program he announced today Americans "will make millions of dollars by turning others in" during absolutely deranged Oval Office event
Here's a supercut:
Remembering Burt Lancaster, who died on this day in 1994 - “From Here to Eternity,” “Separate Tables”, “Sweet Smell of Success”, “The Leopard” and his Oscar-winning performance in “Elmer Gantry.”
Lancaster explained why “Elmer Gantry” (1960) was his least difficult part and revealed the filmmaker he used as a model for the character: “It was the easiest role I was ever given to play because I was, in essence, playing myself. Some parts you fall into like an old glove. “Elmer Gantry” wasn’t really acting - that was me. But I used John Huston as my model for the role - his mannerisms, the charming demeanor he has."
@StoliarSteve I met him several times at dance events, and sat next to him once at a dinner. He was so great - his dancing and humanity. His two granddaughters are also a tap dancing duo!
BREAKING: The Dallas Morning News just announced they are endorsing James Talarico over Ken Paxton. The Dallas Morning News had previously endorsed Senator John Cornyn in every race he ever ran. This is amazing.
I’m coming for you, Ohio! Join me in Cleveland on October 24 for a rally to support @AmyActonOH, @SherrodBrown, and Democrats up and down the ballot.
Hope to see you there: https://t.co/YdNKjPG4Go
James Gandolfini once said of the final episode of The Sopranos (1999): When I first saw the ending, I was like, "What the hell?" I mean, after everything I've been through, all this death, and then it ends like that? But after I had a day to sleep, I just sat there and said, "This is perfect."
