In 1992 I got my break as a writer, hired to work in Norman Lear’s production company. They told me to pay my dues, not show Norman a script nor tell him I was a writer for 1 year. No problem, I was thrilled & happy to pay my dues. Next day Norman introduced himself & said,

I’ll forever carry what he taught me in & out of the writer’s room like, “There’s room in this business for everybody”, “We never learn anything from praise” & “Write the story you want to tell.” He put me on set to learn producing. I hope every Showrunner follows his lead.

The oath we take has no expiration date.

When we took an oath to defend the constitution, we meant it. Trump openly ignored his oath and continues to disregard everything it represents. He was, and is, a national security threat, and must be held accountable.

Trump disrespects veterans & our military. President Biden honors us from both a personal & a professional pov. I want Joe Biden. He’s a leader not a loser.
NEW AD: Trump calls our war dead 'suckers' and 'losers.'
But know this—he's the true loser.
These Gold Star Families are standing up, and their message clear: valor and sacrifice are beyond Trump's understanding.
