BREAKING

President Trump is preparing to fire DHS Secretary Kristi Noem.

Her combative Congressional hearing was the last straw, sources tell the WSJ.

My distant cousin is Leslie Ann Warren. (Cinderella!)

There's been a lot of debate within the Democratic establishment about what rhetoric to use via ICE.

Well, an incumbent doesn't lose by 48 percentage points very often—and her vote on collaborating with ICE was the defining issue here.

I'm (very!) late to #SorryBaby but it's funny and lovely in a Phoebe Waller-Bridge kind of way. Brava to Eva Victor, whose warm, disarming work is new to me. #scriptsky #moviesky #filmsky #writingcommunity (so many hashtags, do any of them work?)

A treacherous time, so to cleanse the timeline, a photo of Leo Tolstoy in the NYTs today. #scriptsky #writingcommunity

We straight up killed their leader. I know a lots going on right now, and there's a lot to process and think about, but I love y'all and maybe, if you can, avoid large, crowded places and busses for the next few weeks. This could be very, very bad.

NEW: Bahrain skyscrapers and Dubai hotels are now being hit by Iranian drones.

This is insane. Trump has unleashed chaos and carnage.

Forgot to add that #Paramount also owns CBS and Showtime and #Skydance (#ParamountSkydance ) and paramountplus. And now #WBD (unless the state stops it). I've written for many of these places, they were great once. But where have all our independent studios gone? #filmsky #scriptsky #moviesky

New email from the WGA today. Glad to see them finally recognizing that it's a MASSIVE problem that our health/pension caps haven't been raised in 20 years.

But it would have been nice to have gotten this obvious need taken care of when we were on strike....

Mass market audiences aren't only left wing audiences though. And they are very very close to Trump. And they already control CBS, and now NBC and HBO, as well as Paramount and soon WBD. Our business has narrowed precipitously today.

So Amazon bought MGM. Disney owns Fox/hulu. WB owns Discovery = wbd. Comcast owns Universal/Focus/ NBC. Now #Paramount will own #wbd (and CNN and HBO). There are so few buyers for our material now! The film business has been so terribly reduced by tech money. #movies #scriptsky

Welp, say hello to the Ellisons, our new overlords. #scriptsky #moviesky #filmsky

Warner Bros. Discovery Declares New Paramount Bid a ‘Superior Proposal’; Netflix Has Four Business Days to Match The Warner Bros. Discovery board says the latest offer from Paramount is 'superior' to its deal with Netflix, which now has four days to counter.

Whoooo boy. If Paramount wins WB, the Ellisons control a gigantic portion of our business. #filmsky #scriptsky

Same!

No cast listed.

Can do.

Anyway, hope this online clash doesn't ruin the joy Robert Aramayo must have felt to win Best Actor. Hope he's still celebrating. #BAFTA #filmsky

Reading people. Body language. Knowing how to connect with people totally unlike you and with different backgrounds and beliefs. Defusing tense situations. Gaining trust. High endurance, pain tolerance, and work ethic. Reaction time. Prioritizing order of execution. Anticipating people’s needs. Tons

PS - The Zookeeper's Wife is running again on Netflix until March 1st. Starring #JessicaChastain and #DanielBruhl, directed by Niki Caro, written by moi. 🐘 💘 #scriptsky 2/2

Ok all right I finally joined @letterboxd.social . Reading more recent reviews of my movies is fascinating. #scriptsky and #filmmaking #movie friends take heart, time heals the wounds of mixed reviews. There's a collective thing that happens at first, but then a deeper appreciation builds. 1/2 >>

Derek has once again won the internet for today, we can all go home.

📢📢 PSA: #WGA members: WGA staff (WGSU) is officially on strike, effective immediately. Writers Guild staff striking against the Guild! There's some karma at play here. Hope they get a fair deal. #scriptsky #screenwriting #amwriting

A lot of places are about to be bombed in a country far away and a good many people killed because Donald Trump cannot make anyone forget or ignore the accusations of what he did with young girls.

That is now the foreign policy of the United States.
