Double Trouble #OTD🌟
The Maltese Falcon * 1941 & The Dark Mirror * 1946

Premiering five years apart on October 18, these two noir films couldn’t be more different, yet they both hinge on murder and deception.

Trump said he was cutting "only Democrat programs" in the federal government during the shutdown to punish us, so this morning a lot of MAGA families with special needs kids in school are waking up to find out they've been democrats this whole time.

If Mike Johnson is refusing to call the House back into session during the shutdown, then we’ll do the work right here the Bronx.

The New York Essential plan is being eliminated entirely next year due to the GOP healthcare cuts. People’s lives are at stake.

And that’s why we’re fighting back.

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

The Big Heat * 1953: It's A Man's World - or is it?

Glenn Ford was billed as the star, but he owes this big hit to the four women who inhabit NoirLand, + Jeanette Nolan & Gloria Grahame.
