Another reason why the Paramount Warner Bros merger and all media mergers going forward should blocked. These consolidations put our freedom of speech even more vulnerable to control by our oligarch overlords. #WatchMuskDoc hollywoodreporter.com/busine…

Check out the trailer for my new film, "Musk." It's about a "free-speech absolutist" who has threatened a lawsuit to try to stop the film from being seen.
The @BeyondFest screening of this incredibly important documentary has sold out. Based on @alexgibneyfilm's reputation and what I know about Musk, this is a vital documentary for everyone to see in 2026. They even included the tweets. @bleeckerstfilms piped.video/eY_8SyndC10?si=a-Vx…

This is the biggest lie you’ve been told. You’re told the West is falling apart because of migrants and minorities. But who closed the factories? Crashed the banks? Launched the wars? Here’s what really happened.

4 million people across Twitter and Instagram have watched me making a fool of bigot and alleged heavy drinker Nancy Mace but she wants you to believe I got ‘maced’ by her lol, whatever that means.
You can support women or you can defend radical Islam. You cannot do both. Mehdi Hasan got MACED on @PiersUncensored.

we've been trying to tell you...
Canadian PM Mark Carney sees the fight with Trump as his opportunity to do a shock doctrine for Canada, selling it off to private equity with moves that would otherwise be unpopular.

If you’d told me years ago that wealthy industrialists in the 21st century would be celebrating the victory of an extremist right wing party, I’d have said “Oh yeah, that checks out. I’ve read books.”

The reason @ElonMusk is freaking out about this upcoming documentary is because it is by @alexgibneyfilm - one of the world's best accountability journalists/documentarians. Musk knows Alex doesn't pull punches, doesn't cower and won't be bullied - and so the bully is mad.
Elon Musk documentary, ‘Musk,’ contends that his four-month stint in Washington last year did more than gleefully ax 270,000 federal employees and untold billions in life-saving aid. Director Alex Gibney suggests that Musk also had access to and potentially collected intimate data on tens of millions of Americans possibly even for later political use. Geoffrey Hinton, the Nobel-prize-winning godfather of AI, offers a specific use case: leveraging the data into an unfair campaign advantage. “It’s fairly clear to me that Trump is hell-bent on corrupting the midterm elections,” he says onscreen. “If you wanted to corrupt those midterm elections and you wanted to use AI, all you needed to do was get detailed information on U.S. citizens. And what DOGE did looked like just what you would do.” Read the exclusive THR cover story on ‘Musk’: bit.ly/4qSLyuX

4 in 10 Jewish Americans think it’s a genocide. A consensus of almost all leading genocide scholars think it’s a genocide. Israel’s own leading human rights groups say it’s a genocide. But sure, it’s antisemitic for Mark Ruffalo to say so (!)
Paramount is right to push back hard against @MarkRuffalo and his “genocide” bullshit. He’s a bigot, and Hollywood is finally saying enough. It’s about time. Shabbat shalom.

The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect.  Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life. This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.  Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.
