An innocent man allegedly detained despite evidence of his innocence. American citizens killed during ICE operations. How many failures does it take before this administration is held accountable?

The chilling thing about the Trump administration falsely accusing David Hearn is what it reveals: they have no hesitation targeting ordinary American citizens when it serves their agenda. It's the same playbook they used with Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and countless others. The pattern is unmistakable. When the truth becomes inconvenient, they pick a citizen, invent a villain, and count on the wreckage to advance their interests. This is an administration willing to inflict real harm on ordinary people to protect its own power.

Ronald Reagan ignored the AIDS crisis—and his “dear friend” from Hollywood, Rock Hudson, who asked for help. Dr. Fauci jumped in and helped. Guess which guy the homophobic ghouls in the Republican Party revere today.

Happy #LetterboxdFriday! What's YOUR #LastFourWatched? An Abbott & Costello ghost movie. Summer fun silliness with Frankie & Annette. Remembering Chuck Russell with Jim Carrey's human-cartoon vehicle. And remembering Glen Hansard with his slice-of-life musical romance and his Oscar-winning song.

A screenshot of my Letterboxd "Recent Activity" screen, showing the last four films I've watched: Charles Barton's "The Time of Their Lives," William Asher's "Beach Blanket Bingo," Chuck Russell's "The Mask," and John Carney's "Once."

Happy #LetterboxdFriday! What's YOUR #LastFourWatched? I witnessed Doc from Gunsmoke as a shady lawyer, puzzled over Ian McKellen being too old for a role by decades (but enjoyed it anyway), solved the mystery of a Wu-Tang Clan favorite, & felt the summer heat with an erotic thriller. #Letterboxd

Perhaps the most stomach-turning part of this news was a quote from David Diamond, an attorney who had represented Nixon Perez Paz in traffic court: "When STLPR informed Diamond that Pérez Paz had been shot and killed alongside his wife, he said it “doesn’t matter” before hanging up."

Incredibly heartbreaking. They found the baby crying next to its mother. Do they look like criminals? Someone needs to pay for their contribution to this horrific murder, Stephen Miller. www.stlpr.org/law-order/20...
