Muda69 Posted May 26, 2022 Author Share Posted May 26, 2022 R.I.P. Ray Liotta https://www.avclub.com/r-i-p-ray-liotta-goodfellas-1848981438 Quote Actor Ray Liotta, who is probably still best known for playing Henry Hill in Goodfellas—and for decades of roles after it that directly wink at his Goodfellas character—has died. Deadline says that he “died in his sleep in the Dominican Republic” while working on director John Barr’s upcoming film Dangerous Waters. Deadline also refers to his death as “a shocker,” but it doesn’t look like any other information about his cause of death is currently available. Liotta was 67. .... Wow. He was too young. Truly an American Icon. He will be missed. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swordfish Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 A Clinton advisor found hanging from a tree with a shotgun blast to the chest. "I don't hang myself often, but when I do, I shoot myself in the chest first." https://www.analyzingamerica.org/2022/06/658721/?fbclid=IwAR2UQybMOGxDVNVxR2CETeoWnr9I0TgEqreV8FS5UhtdTD82lQ3ibTysxnM It’s rumored that Middleton played a key role in strengthening the friendship between Clinton and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Originally from Little Rock, Arkansas, Middleton was found dead about 30 miles away from his home. In the 1990s, he served as a special assistant to former President Bill Clinton. Middleton reportedly helped admit Epstein into the White House on at least seven of the 17 occasions Epstein visited during Clinton’s tenure.
