Brutal.

My god. 6 MILLION acres of public lands in Oregon, including the vast majority of our national forests, will be sold in a fire sale if the MAGA budget passes.

With its sale to Concord Originals, I hope RKO Pictures returns to making seminal movies and backing daring artists as they once did with Orson Welles. As my doc The Lost Print will show, even despite the awful re-editing, they still greenlit The Magnificent Ambersons! deadline.com/2025/06/conc...

RIP George Wendy, aka Norm on Cheers. A brilliant Everyman whose beer quips made Thursday nights Must See. I’m sure God has a barstool reserved up there for ya. I raise a glass and toast to your wonderful life and career. www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/g...

Here’s a direct link to New Zeland Radio’s story and interview on my latest film. Give it a listen! www.rnz.co.nz/life/screens...

I gave an interview to New Zealand Radio last week on my search for The Lost Print and our forthcoming doc. Take a listen 👇 x.com/j_grossberg/...

HAPPENING NOW: Bail hearing for Rumeysa Ozturk, the Tufts PhD student who remains in detention in Louisiana after she was taken from her home in Massachusetts by masked immigration authorities. The hearing is before a Vermont judge. Ozturk is appearing virtually from Louisiana.

This is certifiably insane. Trump isn’t trying to save Hollywood, he’s going to destroy it, prob to stick it to libs. Does this mean we tax Chris Nolan’s The Odyssey or the next Mission Impossible for filming all over the world? Or using VFX houses in New Zealand? deadline.com/2025/05/trum...

Those Russians responsible for this abomination and others must be prosecuted for war crimes. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

Now do Trump. www.cnn.com/2025/04/25/p...

HAPPENING NOW: Hundreds of protesters have now gathered outside a federal courthouse in downtown Milwaukee to support Judge Hannah Dugan

Release Rumeysa Ozturk NOW!! www.nytimes.com/2025/04/25/o...

On a more serious note, RIP to a pope I admired greatly, who cared for the port, who humbly washed the feet of the fallen and who led by example, calling on the world to protect the environment and end war. I pray for Pope Francis, one of the good ones and a true reformer.

The folks behind the Conclave movie either had something to do with this or have impeccable timing. www.huffpost.com/entry/what-h...

Hi guys, my name is Trevor Reed. I am a USMC veteran that was wrongfully detained in Russia for nearly 3 years. After I was released in a prisoner exchange I trained for 6 months then joined a special forces team in the Ukrainian Main Directorate of Intelligence where we fought the Russians. #nafo

AOC: I saw on Fox, Jeanine Pirro says that they found so many babies and two year olds and four year olds receiving social security. I got a notice for you Jeanine Pirro: those babies receive social security because their parents died. That’s not a waste. That’s humanity. That’s America.

Yes!!! Let’s make it happen. Hit up every influencer, pundit and celebrity that you can. Tell them to repost! @audacityofdespair.bsky.social @ianbremmer.com @ricksteves.bsky.social @kumail.bsky.social @meidastouch.com @michaelemann.bsky.social @georgetakei.bsky.social

Oh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

AOC: Only 2% of people on Medicaid are able-bodied.. I saw Mike Johnson saying we have to stop all the able-bodied men from being on Medicaid — as if it’s a crime for someone to have healthcare in America. Healthcare is a human right, and everyone should have it.

This is the greatest band I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen them a lot! #Phish

@youranoncentral.bsky.social The time for complacency is over. People are stepping up. June 16 marks 10 years since Trump came down that escalator. Now we send him back! With a nationwide general strike and the largest protest in history to save democracy! Will u join us? Repost if you’re in!
