Diane Keaton was a true Californian. She was a self-described oddball, uniquely stylish, deeply creative, funny, and an acting legend who could steal the screen in comic and dramatic roles alike. She was in a class all her own, an icon.

So long Diane Keaton. One of the greatest actors of all time that simply lit up the screen with her charisma alone.

The time we met Annie Hall, and a fashion icon was born.

@sanders.senate.gov: "No, Speaker Johnson, the #NoKings Rally on October 18th is not a 'hate America' rally. ... It’s a rally of millions of people who believe in American freedom and are not going to allow you and President Trump to turn us into an authoritarian country."

And still, the plot sickens. I've seen, first hand, that this law is needed. It's a good law. With everything you already know about how cruel and selfish humans can be towards wild things, believe me, it's worse. Republicans are Godless mother fuckers.

Trump’s chaos will punish students.

It’s not the billionaires’ kids who will suffer.

It's working families' kids who will fall further behind.

The prosecution of Tish James is the product of a broken system that allows lawless billionaires to rule alongside corrupt politicians.

It’s as much a story of New York City as Washington, D.C.

But it's here in New York where a new era of politics will be born.

It’s interesting that Republicans keep talking about No Kings on Oct. 18 as though it’s just a DC protest.

The protests are nationwide. Find your local one here: www.nokings.org#map

Johnson slams the No Kings protest march scheduled to take place in DC next week as the “hate America rally” that would draw “the pro-Hamas wing” and “the antifa people.”

Johnson describes planned No Kings rally as ‘hate America,’ ‘pro-Hamas’ gathering

Organizers largely blew off the rhetoric, but some Democrats online criticized the tone.

“The pattern is one that involved modeling agencies around the world serving as fronts for human trafficking…This may very well be what Trump is trying desperately to keep quiet in the DOJ’s Epstein files.”

The Epstein case is not an issue about Trump and the US but rather about all the Trumps of the Western world with ties to Russia

I posted this awhile ago and had some pushback about it being a blackmail operation ~ yet Maxwell took over her father’s operation and expanded it 💔💔💔

Ghislaine's Maxwell's father, Robert "Cap'n Bob" Maxwell, developed the KGB's 'honeypot kompromat' scheme (filming rich & powerful men in
compromising situations) originally for Mossad. That is how most world Intel Agencies think the KGB turned Trump.
Epstein & Maxwell were NOT "sex traffickers". They ran a business that Ghislaine inherited from her father. They sold blackmail they themselves had engineered: procuring & grooming underage girls to be proffered to people like Trump & Musk, then selling that video evidence to the highest bidders, usually Vladimir Putin & the KGB.

Please note, confirmations are still coming in. We are working hard to crowd source exactly who all got notices last night.
Some won’t know till snail mail comes in days.
It is a mess.
Stay tuned to @firedbutfighting.bsky.social a group of illegally fired CDC staff and their allies for updates.
