    REVIEW: 'The Color of Money' (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The Color of Money is not the best film in its three leads' bodies of work (meaning costars Paul Newman and Tom Cruise, alongside director Martin Scorsese). That would be—reader objections expected—The Sting for Newman, Collateral for Cruise, and Goodfellas for Scorsese. Nor is it the most impressive entry in each man's catalogue: Newman's alcoholic ambulance chaser in The Verdict and Cruise's pickup artist-slash-motivational speaker in Magnolia represent two actors at the peak of their powers,

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The Democratic nominee for Senate in Arkansas, Hallie Shoffner, raised money in the summer of 2020 for a "racial and social justice" bail fund founded by a left-wing activist who was later sentenced to 17 months in prison for her role in a series of firebombing attacks on police cars in Little Rock. Shoffner and the family farming company she ran at the time, SFR Seed, donated flowers to a jewelry store in Little Rock, Bella Vita Jewelry, that in turn sold bouquets to raise money for the Little

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The Democratic nominee in Nebraska's Second Congressional District, Denise Powell, opposes efforts to prevent children from undergoing sex-change surgery, a Washington Free Beacon review found.

Powell wrote in the post that the bill "would make it illegal for kids to access gender-a
