Robert Duvall was a kind and gentle man. He had that crinkle in his smile that made you think he had some precious secret, all his own.
Rest well, Robert.

"The committee will be in order while US attorney general Pam Bondi filibusters a hearing about the Epstein Files to talk about the Dow Jones and S&P stock market indexes that have absolutely nothing to do with her job or the Epstein Files."
Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."
