Anyone who doubts Bryan Cranston's absolute wizardry as a performer must see ALL MY SONS at the Wyndham's. First time I found it a stronger play than Death of a Salesman. It's far more dangerous & completely of this moment.

Leaders of a Catholic church near Boston kept a Nativity display with an anti-ICE message in place on Monday, defying an order from the Catholic Archdiocese of Boston to remove it.

The Christmas display, which replaces Jesus, Mary and Joseph with a sign saying “ICE Was Here,” has drawn criticism from Catholic leaders and immigration officials.

The calls from America this weekend to "abolish the EU" are for one simple reason: the EU is the only thing that can keep European nation-states from becoming Russian or American vassals.
The US has declared rhetorical war on the EU
The calls from America this weekend to destroy the EU are revealing. They hate the union because it's the only thing that can keep European countries from being Russian or American vassals.

Supreme Court appears poised to make it easier for Trump to fire independent government officials (despite laws meant to insulate them from political pressure) in what would be a major expansion of presidential power.

How long are we as a civil society going to let ICE do what they are doing.?

I hope that @warren.senate.gov, the @wgawest.bsky.social, the @wgaeast.bsky.social, and others who have rung alarm bells at the proposed Netflix acquisition of Warner Bros. will treat this hostile takeover bid from Paramount as at least as much of a threat.
30+ movies a year. Wow. That's very impressive. This year Paramount released a grand total of 7, exactly one of which made the year's top 25 (while losing $), so there is zero reason to believe that the company has the means to more than quadruple its output. deadline.com/2025/12/para...

A lot of the people bemoaning Netflix's possible acquisition of WB are ignoring the fact that if WB goes to Paramount, it will be Disney buying Fox all over again--WB will become a "label" within Paramount and then simply disappear. Ellison hasn't shown he can run one studio. Don't give him two. >

This is the best thing to happen to NYC in decades.
It’s one thing to threaten to leave. It’s another to follow through. Many wealthy New Yorkers who want to avoid paying state and city taxes by moving are often unwilling to go to the lengths required to pass tax auditors’ scrutiny, according to tax lawyers and financial planners.

Federal immigration enforcement officials called off a planned raid on Canal Street today shortly before it was slated to begin.
New Yorkers who heard about the raid showed up at the garage where the feds had gathered, and as federal agents tried to leave, the NYPD cleared the way for them.

It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.
