Somehow @sepinwall.bsky.social published a beautiful eulogy for Rob Reiner overnight. I woke up saddened by the news of his passing, and this piece—celebrating his life and work—was exactly what I needed to read.

Heartbreaking news of death of Rob Reiner and his wife Michele. Rob was not only an award winning creator of amazing movies but also a tireless fighter for America. He had appeared on my SiriusXM show numerous times over the years incl in 2024 talking how comedy/Jon Stewart can impact politics:

We need a new generation of leaders who are the voices of democracy, freedom, social justice, & the rule of law.
A new generation that renews the “we” in “we the people.”
Instead of fretting over Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Party should embrace him as part of its future.

At Menards hardware store in Cicero, IL
It's a major hardware chain throughout the Midwest.
Look at Trump's masked thugs shattering the truck windows and dragging a man off to an unmarked car.
Menards told employees to delete any videos they took of the ICE raid—or they would be fired.

The NYT, Washington Post, Atlantic, and NPR are refusing to sign the agreement.
