So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

NEW: The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did.

We found more than 170 such incidents since the start of the second Trump administration. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes nearly 20 children, two of whom have cancer.

Death Is Just A Change David Lynch has gone on to whatever the next place is. I’m very sad about it; it came at a hard time for the city of Los Angeles, a place he dearly loved, and it’s hard not to think his change of cons...

Really sorry to hear about the sudden passing of Kaleb Horton, a fantastic writer. Only seems fitting to share what he wrote for David Lynch kalebhorton.ghost.io/death-is-jus...

Robert Mitchum as Max Cady intimidates Gregory Peck as Sam Bowden in J. Lee Thompson's CAPE FEAR (1962)

Today you can watch a sadistic rapist threaten and intimidate good people in a campaign of vicious retribution.

Also, CAPE FEAR (1962) is on TCM at 6pm ET #FilmSky

We are deeply saddened by the loss of our founder and friend Robert Redford.
