I want to ban assault weapons and require universal background checks. Trump promised the NRA that he’d do nothing about guns. And he means it.

@JayFaerber OMG a stop

Liza Minnelli has outlived Sinéad O’Connor, one of the most acclaimed artists of our time. Her debut album The Lion and the Cobra is a masterpiece which will stand the test of time.

@RGTEN1 That would be hilarious if we didn’t have the highest gun homicide rate of all wealthy, industrialized nations and an all time high number of gun homicides and mass shootings this year.

Fun fact There already is an amendment regarding guns

FINALLY, someone is making real moves in this crisis. I heart @GavinNewsom // Gavin Newsom wants 28th Amendment for guns in U.S. Constitution politi.co/3XaWCVr via @politico #GunControlNow

@Dad_At_Law I like the vulnerability of voicemails. They’re more human than texts and it’s that humanness that has fallen out of fashion.

Overheard my 11 y/o daughter record her voicemail greeting: “Hi, you’ve reached my voicemail. When you hear the beep, hang up and send me a text.” This generation gets it.

Such a fun panel on @symonemsnbc today with an all-star female crew! Thanks for having me @SymoneDSanders @MSNBC #symone #msnbc

I'm taking a more aggressive stance with my eyebrows.

My thesis USC film The Connection (also a feature script) is about people who have chips in their brains. You can see clips of it here softpowerpictures.com/reel // smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/elo…

@mtaibbi The Hunter Biden story is so yawn. A spoiled drug addict lost his laptop so his dad, who was running for President, asked that anything purporting to be from the laptop ie hacked not be put on blast. Social media outlets complied until the stolen laptop’s contents were verified.

36.Twitter files continued: "THE FIRST AMENDMENT ISN’T ABSOLUTE” Szabo’s letter contains chilling passages relaying Democratic lawmakers’ attitudes. They want “more” moderation, and as for the Bill of Rights, it's "not absolute"

A lot to unpack here. With less "bankable stars" you have less financing for middle-budget films, so you're creating less movie stars which... @Wesley_Morris // We’re Out of Movie Stars. Whose Fault Is That? nytimes.com/2022/12/01/mov…

@CapitalF @MarkLeibovich You know, I don’t think he can win the primary. I think his base is small and the party is over him. Plus Fox/Murdoch has turned… should be interesting.

@kimray @MarkLeibovich I’m really doubting the base will flock to an alternative. The GOP needs the trump base to have a shot at winning and he’s completely molded the party in his image so it’d be hard to be anything but a pale imitation. Trump can win a primary but the party is still extreme

@CapitalF @MarkLeibovich Lol same but I fear he has traction as there are no clear alternatives to Trump

@MarkLeibovich @kimray I’m hoping that he goes the way of every overhyped Florida governor with presidential aspirations who the donors think will sweep the election but is exposed as a dweeb
