Imagine putting together an entire halftime show based off of one woman doing a cover of Thunderstruck on xylophone……and having it KICK TOTAL ASS!

Here’s a story for you. We started filming without owning the title and had to do alternates.

Taft Broadcasting owned the title Ghostbusters as part of their half-hour sitcom starring Larry Storch and Forrest Tucker (F-Troop) and a gorilla chasing ghosts. I had never heard of it. They didn’t have proton packs or Bill Murray. Columbia paid $500,000 to buy the name, but they really should have paid Dean Martin, from whom I first heard the term.

In the film Scared Stiff (1953), he and Jerry Lewis (check out his acrobatic stair descent) are in an old haunted castle, and Lizabeth Scott asks Dean: “Who are you guys?” And Dean answers: “You’ve heard of Trustbusters and Gangbusters, we’re Ghostbusters!”

For my research writing the first movie, I watched every single ‘ghost’ comedy ever made. Bowery Boys, Hope and Crosby, Abbot and Costello, Martin and Lewis all did such films.

Happy Halloween 2026.

The greatest letter of all time...

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

It’s not just Vivek Ramaswamy choosing pedophiles over people.

Ken Paxton’s office offered a man who had faced child-sex-abuse charges a plea deal with one day in jail and no Texas sex-offender registration. Paxton now brags the man did 60. Hoffman served less than a month.

Donors named in the Epstein files gave nearly $4.7 million to Mike Rogers (MI) and groups backing him. Then Rogers said we have to “protect somebody who got on an airplane and rode with him.”

Michael Whatley (NC) appointed a convicted child sex offender to NC GOP leadership and kept him there after parents objected. Trump called Whatley “fantastic.”

As Arizona Senate president, Andy Biggs helped kill a bill to replace the police force in Colorado City, where Warren Jeffs’ child-rape cult held power. Marshals had helped return an underage bride who fled. Biggs says, “I knew what was going on.” And he did nothing when he could have.

Mike Collins (GA) voted against forcing the Epstein files out. Roger Marshall (KS) and Cindy Hyde-Smith (MS) voted to block an amendment that would have required their release. Now Epstein survivors are on TV telling voters what those votes meant.

And Trump and JD Vance stand behind every one of these corrupt pieces of shit.

This is the MAGA ticket. Every single one is on the ballot in two weeks.

MAGA: Protecting Pedophiles Over People Every Time.

Top of the US charts today in 1979: Herb Alpert’s “Rise” — famously recorded in one take.

Grammy Award for Best Pop Instrumental.

As Miles Davis said: “You hear three notes and you know it’s Herb Alpert.”

🚨 NEW AD.

Andy Harris hadn’t faced voters in years.

Then this happened at our debate

[FactPost @factpostnews]

Vance is confronted by the emotional husband of a soldier killed in Iran War and acts like he had no idea anyone ever died:

Q: It's a hard price to pay. There's a failure in the leadership. How will the leadership be held accountable?

Vance: If there were failures... This is the first time I've heard of this.

This is what happened when Zelensky met with Melvin Hurwitz a United States World War 2 Veteran.

The Veteran tried to kiss Zelensky's hand, quickly realising what was happening, Zelesnky pulls his hand, he didn't feel like he deserved that level of respect from a Hero. Instead Zelesnky brings himself down to his level and embraces him instead.

Veteran: “You’re the savior of the people!”
Zelenskyy: “No, no, no. You saved Europe.”
Veteran: “You bring tears to my eyes. You are my hero”
Zelenskyy: “No, no, you are our hero.”
Veteran: “I pray for you.”

When in France for the 100th aniversary of World War 1, Trump was asked if he would visit the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery where 2,289 United States Military personal lay after being killed in World War 1, Trump said:

“Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.”

In a separate conversation on the same trip, Trump referred to the more than 1,800 United States Marines who lost their lives at Belleau Wood as ‘Suckers’ for being killed fighting the Nazi Army.

In 2025 the United States brough home the bodies of 4 fallen United States Service members as their remains returned home. It was usual protocol for Presidents to attend and welcome them home as a show of respect. Trump didnt bother, instead he went to his Golf Club in Florida.

In 2024 at a public event, Trump compared the Presidential Medal of Freedom, a civilian honor, with the Medal of Honor, the highest U.S. military decoration for valor in combat.

He said the civilian award was “much better,” then remarked that Medal of Honor recipients are often severely wounded or dead so Medals Of Honor where insignificant.

They are not the same.

Just saw an exchange that every politician and candidate should note.

Someone posted that their dad was considering voting for Ashley Moody because of negative ads about Angie Nixon.

And Angie Nixon showed up in the replies, addressed his concerns, explained what she’s fighting for, and made it personal.

People want to feel heard, not just talked at. Angie’s response was perfection 🔥
