Comment on Kayleigh Claims ABC's Jonathan Karl Is A Harris Surrogate

Sixty years have passed since the opening of the 1964-1965 New York World’s Fair, the last of the grand-tradition expositions in the U. S. There were other world fairs that followed — the last one on U. S. soil came with the Louisiana World Exposition in 1984 — but none would compare in size or scope to the one in Flushing, Queens.

The traumatic memory of November 8, 2016, makes me cautious when I imagine the possibility of Kamala Harris becoming the first woman President of the United States of America. Her racial identity as a mixed-race Black woman further fuels my anxiety, preying on the centuries-old fear that my fellow Americans are not ready to elect a woman—and especially a woman of color—to our highest political office.

If so, you’re way more in tune with your intuition than the family at the center of Speak No Evil, now in theaters. In the new English-language remake of Danish filmmaker Christian Tafdrup’s 2022 psychological horror of the same name, an American expat family vacationing in Tuscany, husband and wife Ben (Scoot McNairy) and Louise Dalton (Mackenzie Davis) and their 11-year-old daughter Agnes (Alix West Lefler), are drawn into the web of a murderous English couple, Paddy (James McAvoy) and Ciara Feld (Aisling Franciosi), targeting them as their latest marks in a long line of victims.

In Will & Harper, actor-comedian Will Ferrell and renowned writer Harper Steele embark on a cross-country trip as inseparable friends and creative partners of nearly three decades. Theirs is the kind of bond that speaks the language of comedy fluently, when it requires spoken words at all. Still, their longtime camaraderie was at the start of a brand new chapter when they set out to make the movie.

It’s one of those interview questions asked of confident, accomplished women time and again: What advice would you give your younger self? Megan Park’s My Old Ass riffs on that stock question, but with a smart, perceptive twist: instead of treating the younger self as a clueless naif, it recognizes that teenagers often have more emotional resilience than even they recognize. Freewheeling, mildly reckless Elliott (Nashville’s Maisy Stella) can’t wait for her life to start: in just a few weeks, she’ll leave her family’s Ontario farm for college in Toronto.

On Friday, Aug. 9, I was shot by an Israeli soldier during a peaceful demonstration in the West Bank village of Beita. The weekly demonstrations there began in May 2021 in response to the establishment of a newly-formed settlement called Evyatar, which the Israeli government has since legalized, as they accelerate the annexation of Palestinian land.
