To those thinking Russia is winning in Ukraine:
Imagine if when we invaded Iraq, we were almost four years into it, only occupied 20 percent, and lost a million men.
Not a soul would call that “winning.”

MI6 Chief gives speech. Speech may contain words that are interesting. But because MI6 Chief is a woman @telegraph.co.uk prints an article about her appearance, with no mention of the speech’s content.

Trump is so incredibly detestable, I didn’t think it was possible for a human to be so very unpleasant - there are no redeeming characteristics are there? None. Not one.
And America elected him twice.

Trump Derangement Syndrome is a very real thing.
It's a mental condition that makes you believe that a senile sex pest and fraudster, with six bankruptcies and 34 criminal convictions, is a fit and proper person to hold public office.

Just when you think Trump can’t sink any lower… Rob Reiner and his talented wife Michele were friends of ours. We collaborated on projects. Brad and I are devastated. We are in shock and grief. Sure, Rob opposed Trump, but this is so beyond the pale.

You can’t expect a criminal who has no respect for women, the disabled, people of color, our troops, victims of 9/11, LGBTQ+ people, humanity or even his own demon spawn to show respect after someone is brutally murdered. I’ll never forgive anyone who chose this or sat out.

The American state media went from attacking President Biden’s age endlessly and never once acknowledging the countless good things he was trying to do to now trying to somehow normalize the orange felon mocking/condoning someone’s murder. It’s grotesque.

One of my all-time favorite clips of Rob Reiner, from his Friars Club Roast in 2000, as he reads aloud Roger Ebert's infamous scathing review of his movie North. The man had an amazing sense of humor about himself. RIP.

When Paul Pelosi was nearly murdered, and Trump responded with conspiracy theories and jokes, it reminded the world that Trump is a man devoid of grace and decency.
Targeting Rob Reiner, he did it again, digging a hole in the bottom of the barrel and falling even further.

In Rob Reiner's memory, we should all speak out to challenge the authoritarianism closing in on us. Together, we can push it back.
Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."
