US president fiercely criticized for claiming Hollywood director was killed due to his having ‘Trump Derangement Syndrome’
Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer also paid tribute in a post on X, not only to Reiner’s work in film but also to his being “a relentless defender of democracy and the values so many of us share”.
Horrific news today out of California of the tragic death of Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele. Not only was Rob an incredibly talented actor & director, he was also a relentless defender of democracy and the values so many of us share. He will be missed dearly. My prayers this morning are with the Reiner family and all those who loved his movies and what he and Michele stood for.
He was one of the most talented movie-makers to have ever lived. From Spinal Tap to When Harry Met Sally, from A Few Good Men to my favorite movie of all time, The Princess Bride. We are weeping the loss of a comedic and story-telling master. His movies touched us, deeply, and spoke to our fundamental humanity. Rob Reiner was one of a kind, and he will be missed.
The tragic circumstances of his murder make it all the more horrible. Heidi & I are praying for his family. Rest in Peace.

Israeli PM on Sunday accused Anthony Albanese of doing ‘nothing to stop the spread of antisemitism’
Australia’s prime minister has rejected accusations from his Israeli counterpart, Benjamin Netanyahu, that Australia’s recognition of a Palestinian state earlier this year had contributed to Sunday’s deadly antisemitic terrorist attack on Bondi beach in Sydney.
In an interview with national broadcasters, Anthony Albanese was asked if he accepted “any link between that recognition and the massacre in Bondi”.

Arguably the poster-boy for Bazball, England’s vice-captain is in dire need of an innings of substance in Adelaide
“They were shocking shots. I’ll admit that every day of the week. Especially the one in Perth. It was nearly a bouncer and I’ve tried to drive it. It was just bad batting. The one in Brisbane I’ve tried to hit it for six. That’s what I mean when I say I need to rein it in a bit.”
Oh yes, Harry. This is real transgression. Inject that mild good sense into my throbbing veins. Trash talk binned. Mind games deactivated. Tell me about reining it in again. Shock me with your filthy, filthy conservatism. Talk sensible to me baby.

Spurs have faced low moments in their history, and this is one of them. How will the club respond in the post-Daniel Levy era?
Tottenham Hotspur, Thomas Frank said after Sunday’s 3-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest, are “not a quick fix”. That’s been true for probably 40 years, since they lurched into financial crisis amid boardroom shenanigans in the 1980s, becoming the first soccer club to list on the stock exchange and embarking on a disastrous programme of diversification (the highlight perhaps being becoming Hummel’s distributor in the UK, a role they performed so badly that Southampton took a page of their own programme to blame Spurs for the fact that their shirts were not being delivered).
Right now, Spurs would probably settle for even a little bit of a fix, a slow hint of progress, a flicker of hope, anything to break them out of the current grim spiral. They have won just one of their last seven league games. When they beat Everton on 26 October, they were third, five points behind the leaders. Sunday’s defeat leaves them 11th, 14 points behind Arsenal. Given that Spurs finished 17th last season, perhaps that is not so unexpected – and the compacted nature of the table means they are only four points off fifth and probable Champions League qualification. But, equally, 22 points represents their lowest Premier League tally after 16 games since 2008.
