@MikeSington So he's admitting Republicans are cowards.

@LACoFireMuseum It was such a pleasure to meet Marco this morning. What a kind gentleman. Thank you for bringing him to the museum.

Robert De Niro’s statement on Donald is perfect. Please read it:

“I’ve spent a lot of time studying bad men. I’ve examined their characteristics, their mannerisms, the utter banality of their cruelty. Yet there’s something different about Donald Trump.

When I look at him, I don’t see a bad man. Truly.

I see an evil one.

Over the years, I’ve met gangsters here and there. This guy tries to be one, but he can’t quite pull it off. There’s such a thing as “honor among thieves.”

Yes, even criminals usually have a sense of right and wrong. Whether they do the right thing or not is a different story — but — they have a moral code, however warped.

Donald Trump does not. He’s a wannabe tough guy with no morals or ethics. No sense of right or wrong. No regard for anyone but himself — not the people he was supposed to lead and protect, not the people he does business with, not the people who follow him, blindly and loyally, not even the people who consider themselves his “friends.”

He has contempt for all of them.

We New Yorkers got to know him over the years that he poisoned the atmosphere and littered our city with monuments to his ego. We knew first hand that this was someone who should never be considered for leadership.

We tried to warn the world in 2016.

The repercussions of his turbulent presidency divided America and rattled New York City beyond imagination. Remember how we were jolted by crisis in early 2020, as a virus swept the world. We lived with Donald Trump’s bombastic behavior every day on the national stage, and we suffered as we saw our neighbors piling up in body bags.

The man who was supposed to protect this country put it in peril, because of his recklessness and impulsiveness. It was like an abusive father ruling the family by fear and violent behavior. That was the consequence of New York’s warning getting ignored. Next time, we know it will be worse.

Make no mistake: the twice-impeached, 4-time indicted Donald Trump is still a fool. But we can’t let our fellow Americans write him off like one. Evil thrives in the shadow of dismissive mockery, which is why we must take the danger of Donald Trump very seriously.

So today we issue another warning. From this place where Abraham Lincoln spoke — right here in the beating heart of New York — to the rest of America:

This is our last chance.

Democracy won’t survive the return of a wannabe dictator.

And it won’t overcome evil if we are divided.

So what do we do about it? I know I’m preaching to the choir here. What we’re doing today is valuable, but we have to take today into tomorrow – take it outside these walls.

We have to reach out to the half of our country who have ignored the hazards of Trump and, for whatever reason, support elevating him back into the White House. They’re not stupid, and we must not condemn them for making a stupid choice. Our future doesn’t just depend on us. It depends on them.

Let’s reach out to Trump’s followers with respect.

Let’s not talk about “democracy.” “Democracy” may be our holy grail, but to others it is just a word, a concept, and in their embrace of Trump, they’ve already turned their backs on it.

Let’s talk about right and wrong. Let’s talk about humanity.

Let’s talk about kindness. Security for our world. Safety for our families. Decency.

Let’s welcome them back.

We won’t get them all, but we can get enough to end the nightmare of Trump, and fulfill the mission of this “Stop Trump Summit.””

Fire Prevention Week is here. "Cooking safety starts with YOU!. Pay attention to fire prevention" is this year's theme. Keep a lid nearby when cooking. If a grease fire starts, slide the lid over the pan & remove from the heat. Then turn off the heat and call 9-1-1. @NFPA

From auditions to late-night theatrical rehearsals, this portrait captures a time when dreams seemed distant, but determination was close at hand.

As a now Oscar-nominated and Emmy-winning actress, I can't help but reflect on the relentless pursuit that led me here.

Today, as we face the @sagaftra strike, those obstacles are magnified for many young actors. The fight for fair residuals is more critical than ever as the industry grapples with insufficient compensation and the looming threat of AI's intrusion into our craft. It's not just about survival; it's about preserving the human touch, the emotion, and the authenticity that only living, breathing actors can provide.

The road may be long and the challenges great, but our responsibility is to stand up for what's right. Together, we can shape a future where art thrives and artists are valued.

The only safe way to view fireworks is to attend a professional show. It is important to know that fireworks are not safe for consumers. Fireworks cause thousands of injuries and more than 38% are burns. For more firework safety visit: https://t.co/n4vUGSLeh8 #safe4thofjuly

@bennyjohnson I love how the one woman is trying to protect those people from the pushing camera person. Well done.
Too bad the Texas governor treats human beings as a practical joke instead of with respect. Shame on Abbott.

@LakotaMan1 All of the above. MTG is a wretched example of a human being.

[Colleen Kelly Burks @VarDevonshire]

Love @RealLucyLawless for this take down of the hateful KevinS. Thank you Lucy!!!!!

[Lucy Lawless @RealLucyLawless]

P(nut), you who have EVERYTHING, why do you have to stomp on Transpeople to feel taller? To Kevin, with love.

@ericareport They drank the cool-aid.

[Colleen Kelly Burks @VarDevonshire]

@dhewlett LOL

[Colleen Kelly Burks @VarDevonshire]

@ericareport @kraita I truly hope they can make this happen!!!!!

[Colleen Kelly Burks @VarDevonshire]

@kraita It was a disgusting act of hatred and betrayal. Everyone involve at the Florida end should be thoroughly investigated and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Those who assigned addresses in other states should be fired!

[The Washington Post @washingtonpost]

Prosecutors who are questioning witnesses before a grand jury have asked in recent days about conversations with Trump, his lawyers, and others in his inner circle who sought to substitute Trump allies for certified electors from some states Joe Biden won. https://t.co/mcjN3EhmAO

I created a new Stargate SG-1 / Atlantis FB group as spammers have taken over the old group.
