What is a "Scalawag?" The "traitorous" southern whites who supported the Union and Civil Rights. Tens of thousands of southerners fought for the Union and most supported Civil Rights afterwards.

Jack is a proud Scalawag wed to a Carpetbagger.

Hurrah, boys, hurrah!

All the drama of Marlon Brando or Daniel Day-Lewis with all the talent of Tommy Wiseau or Jaden Smith.

No wonder the studios love him so much.

Legendary interview moment with the director of Morbius about Jared Leto’s behavior on the set of Morbius

uproxx.com/movies/morbi...

I heard a story about filming and I want to see if this is true. Someone told me that Jared Leto was so committed to playing Michael Morbius that even when he had to go to the bathroom, he would use his crutches and slowly limp to get to the bathroom. But it was taking so long between for pee breaks, that a deal was made with him to get him a wheelchair so someone could wheel him there quicker and he agreed to that. Is this true?

Yes.

That and they keep blatantly violating FedGov employees' legal due process and are forced by judges to rehire them. This will play again after all the Shutdown RIFs get thrown out.
