the funniest thing about the Rush Hour 4 greenlight is that, while it's absolutely going to be bad and will flop, people are not prepared for HOW bad it will be

Everyone is ignoring the funniest option here, which is "force them to let you make movies yourself"
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

Hey @reptedlieu.bsky.social, how does attacking another fairly elected Democrat help us fight Trump? Not sure I agree with you 100% on your police work there
Trump is filling his government with Nazis, consolidating authoritarian power, and eroding democracy at every chance.
And yet these 86 House Democrats voted for a right-wing messaging amendment to say that the real authoritarians are the socialists.
Pathetic.

Let none of these people know a moment of peace until they step back and hold the line.
Okay, anyway gongshow of this aside, a very important note:
there is another cloture vote! 4 days, because Rand Paul is going to draw it out. The squishes have no spines, at all, and this goes two ways. Incandescent anger, especially at Kaine and CCM/Rosen.

I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.
