Born on November 6, 1946, Sally Field triumphed over discouraging remarks that she wasn’t “pretty enough” for the film industry.
Making her Hollywood debut with TV shows like “Gidget” in 1965 and “The Flying Nun” in 1967, she showcased her talents and defied the criticism.
Drama became Sally’s refuge from a challenging upbringing, marked by her parents’ divorce and her stepfather’s strict discipline.
Post-high school, she ventured into acting with “Gidget,” a stepping stone that eventually led to her iconic portrayal as Sister Bertrille.
Her prowess in cinema became evident as she clinched two Oscars for her roles in “Norma Rae” and “Places in the Heart”.
A versatile performer, she also found success on television, securing Emmy wins for her contributions to shows like “Sybil”, “ER”, and “Brothers & Sisters”.
Sally, a proud mother, has left a lasting legacy for her three boys – Peter, Eli, and Sam, each of whom has made a mark in the entertainment industry.
At 77 years old, Sally Field stands as a living testament to the transformative power of talent and perseverance in achieving remarkable success in Hollywood.
Jim Jordan’s Major Announcement: What’s the Buzz?
Two Republican committee chairmen, James Comer of Kentucky and Jim Jordan of Ohio, have reinitiated their inquiry into President Joe Biden, alleging potential interference with his son Hunter Biden’s cooperation in the House’s impeachment investigation.
A statement from the White House impIied President Joe Biden was aware of Hunter’s intention to defy congressional subpoenas, prompting the investigation.
The statement read: “The Committees issued subpoenas to Hunter Biden for a deposition to be conducted on December 13, 2023. In correspondence with Mr. Biden’s attorney prior to the scheduled deposition, the Committees addressed and dismissed Mr. Biden’s justifications for non-compliance with the subpoenas, as well as his request for special treatment.”
In December, the United States House of Representatives voted to formally authorize an investigation into President Joe Biden’s potential impeachment.
With a party-line vote of 221-212, the Republican-controlled chamber endorsed the inquiry, probing whether Biden unlawfully benefited from his son Hunter Biden’s international business ventures. Hunter Biden had earlier declined an invitation to testify privately.
Newly appointed House Speaker Mike Johnson recently discussed the impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden, asserting, “We have a duty to pursue it.”
“These are serious times and this is a very serious matter. Next to the Declaration of W*r, impeachment may be the most consequential power Congress holds. That constitutional responsibility rests with the House,” Johnson began at a press briefing.
“We must pursue the facts wherever they lead. Facts are stubborn things, as John Adams famously said. These facts are alarming to the American people and to us. While we take no pleasure in these proceedings, we have a duty to act. We are proud of the work of Chairmen Comer, Jordan, and Smith. They have diligently uncovered evident corru ption involving President Biden and the Biden family. We owe it to the American people to continue this process methodically and transparently,” Johnson added.
He continued, “To do this appropriately and uphold our constitutional duty, we need time and a sound process. Rushing is not an option if we are to remain faithful to the Constitution. The chairmen are committed to proceeding in this manner. We have heard from whistleblowers, Biden business associates, legal experts, and now it is crucial to hear from key witnesses.”
“The chairmen have issued subpoenas, and we expect them to be complied with promptly. We are not making any prejudgments. We will follow the facts wherever they lead. I fully support our chairmen in their efforts, and we will have more updates in the days ahead. Now, we will take some questions.”
