King Maha Vajiralongkorn, accompanied by Queen Suthida, waved as he arrived at Bangkok's Sanam Luang ceremonial ground. Supporters of the monarchy held Thai and yellow royal flags to welcome them, with some cheering "Long live the king." The crowd wore yellow shirts, the color associated with the royal institution. The king led the crowd in a candlelit tribute to his late father, whose giant image was at the center of the stage set up outside the ornate Grand Palace. Although King Bhumibhol Adulyadej died four years ago, his birthday remains on the national calendar as Fathers Day.

Nolte: Tina Fey Lied About Golden Globes Not Being Political
Tina Fey promised America Sunday night’s Golden Globes telecast would be free of politics. She lied. Fey, one of the most overrated celebrities in the history of overrated celebrities, tried to sucker Americans into watching the fading Golden Globes awards show Sunday night with this lie : “We just want to make it a fun hang out for people at home — kind of a stress reliever, so I don’t think you can expect much politics at all. “ Fey added, “It doesn’t seem like a venue for political jokes.” Anyone with a lick of sense knew this was a lie. In fact, it was not even an original lie. Previous Hollywood award shows have promised us the show would ignore politics and focus only on entertaining, and each time we were sucker punched with a flurry of left-wing politics.
