@ML3democrats Too bad 7million racist and sexist Democrats stayed home because they wouldn’t support Harris.

@GovTimWalz While we celebrate the end to US slavery, we need to r Ed member that there were still over 30million slaves throughout the world and around 50 million today.

@johnhawkinsrwn @WesternLensman People forget that the states spend nearly that much too.

@WesternLensman There's nothing Bernie Sanders can do with 39 billion dollars that couldn't be already done many times over with our budget of 7 trillion dollars. So, if it's important, why isn't it already being done? If it's not important, why should we do it?

That deficit for next year's Minneapolis budget is sitting around $30 million — meaning another round of property tax hikes can be expected. But how much, and what's being done to ease that burden? kstp.com/kstp-news/top-…

@KSTP It sounds like the city needs some Data Center money injection. Why not go vertical and fill up empty buildings with data centers. Then you can put gay bath houses on the roof that are kept warm by the servers.

@RepMarkPocan I’d like to see proof of that. I’m on Medicare, it’s not the worst insurance I’ve ever had but it’s close. Many people will think it’s downgrade from their current plans.

@ThrillaRilla369 Yes. And brakes, antifreeze, tranny oil lights, fan motors, air filters and a bunch of other stuff.

@GangsterCinema Garcia is one of those actors who’s always great. Little or big tols, good or crappy movie, he delivers.

We were doing a scene where I’m answering a phone. He was off camera, because he was supposed to be on the phone, so I had to walk over to it. He was dressed in his golf gear, ready to play golf. Sometimes he’d do his close-ups from here up as Malone, and from here down he had golf shoes on.
I went over, and we did the scene. The director (De Palma) said, “No, no, cut — we didn’t see your face.” I said, “But the phone’s over there. Why would I turn back?”
We did it again, and again. As I was going in for the third take, Sean Connery said, “Come on, kid, this is not Hamlet.”
So I tried again and struggled to turn my face back naturally. We finally got it, but the director said, “Cut — Andy, we only saw one eye.”
And Connery said, “You saw two eyes. They’re just very close together.”
Quote comes from an interview Andy Garcia did with The Rich Eisen Show in 2016

Brian De Palma originally wanted Andy Garcia to play Capone's enforcer Frank Nitti in The Untouchables, but Garcia turned it down and lobbied for the role of George Stone instead - partly because he wanted to work alongside Sean Connery. Garcia explains...
"Obviously I wanted to work with Connery. He was one of my childhood heroes, so I lobbied immediately to play the other part. I had to be firm about it —I wanted to roll the dice. Eventually I met with Brian, and I auditioned for George Stone, and they gave me the part….
The dynamics in the film were basically the dynamics on set. We all became very close, but the hierarchy stayed the same — he (Connery) was the older, wise guy, always jabbing at us, and it was my job, as my character, to push back. Respectfully, but to keep the exchanges going.
I love Sean Connery. I’ll tell you a quick story — I’ve told it before, but it’s funny.... (1/2)

@EricLDaugh People rarely admit we could have just held Western Europe just like Russia held Eastern Europe.
