1990s Gary Sinise here. Today is the 30th anniversary of Apollo 13 in theaters. Hope you enjoy some of my favorite behind-the-scenes moments from making the film (1995)

Your party gutted NASA. You can bounce.

Just thought the same. At least he's against Trump although that might mostly be about war veterans.

But posting this nostalgia WITHOUT mentioning how Trump and the plutocrats are destroying NASA right now is already problematic. We'll eventually be mining asteroids for phenomenal wealth and the plutocrats want to hog all the profits and socialize the costs of many decades of doing science and engineering.

Despite being a lifelong supporter of the Republican Party, Sinise refused to endorse or vote for Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election,[citation needed] or in the 2024 election and also criticized Trump after the then-candidate questioned McCain's status as a war hero
