David Lynch's Red Director Chair Stops by Variety's Office Ahead of Live Auction
Julien's Auctions and Turner Classic Movies, hosts of a live auction of David Lynch's possessions, recently toured his director's chair around several locations in Los Angeles, ending with a stop at Variety's office Monday. The auction, called The David Lynch Collection, will be held Wednesday at the Peninsula Beverly Hills as well as at More from Variety Kyle MacLachlan 'Borrowed' Some of David Lynch's Mannerisms for 'Twin Peaks' Character Dale Cooper: He Had 'Great Enthusiasm for Certain Things' Like 'Trees, Coffee and Pie' Secrets of the Hollywood Forever Cemetery: David Lynch's Grave, a Stolen Head and Rudolph Valentino's Ghost 'Twin Peaks' Returns to Rimini: Italian Global Series Festival Honors David Lynch's Legacy In anticipation of that event, the red leather chair commenced a mystery tour around the city to locations that have significance within Lynch's life and filmography, with clues posted on social media to allow fans to guess the locations. The tour started off at the 'Mulholland Drive' location Winkie's Diner on June 12 and continued to the Mulholland Drive street sign, the area of Hollywood and La Brea (where Lynch once held a For Your Consideration protest for Laura Dern) and Bob's Big Boy, the Toluca Lake diner where Lynch often met with stars like Dern and Kyle MacLachlan. The tour stops were also live streamed from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. PT on Julien's Instagram. The chair, which is personalized with Lynch's name and is estimated at $5,000 to $7,000, is a focal point of the auction, which includes more than 450 objects such as Lynch's musical instruments, furniture, props, home decor and more. Bids can be placed at the in-person event, online, over the phone or through an absentee bid form.

Sacramento celebrates Juneteenth with events held citywide
Thursday marked the 160th anniversary of Juneteenth and freedom for Black Americans. The federal holiday recognizes the official end of slavery through the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation by President Abraham Lincoln. Still, enslaved people in Texas did not find out they were free until nearly two years later on June 19th, 1865. Since then, the 19th of June represents a day to celebrate freedom and community. CBS13 stopped by four different Juneteenth events happening across Sacramento on Thursday. In Oak Park, music and dancing lifted up Sacramento's Black community with a block party organized by St. Hope and Esther's Park. "We have Black vendors, Black DJs. We are celebrating us as a community," said organizer Kristen Martin. The block party was sold out, welcoming hundreds out to celebrate until 10 p.m. as the community came together in joy. "We have the day off, it's a federal holiday for us to celebrate Juneteenth. We are excited for us all to come together to celebrate this day," said Martin. The day's events focused on freedom, progress and culture. At the California State Capitol on Thursday afternoon, the California Black Agriculture Working Group celebrated the 160th anniversary of Juneteenth with music, vendors and educational resource booths for the community. Children performed traditional songs for the crowd. "It means advancement for my people. Dr. King would be proud as well. Oh my god, he would be bubbling over," said Terry Dison, a vendor at the event. In midtown, the free Juneteenth Art Walk took place all afternoon on Thursday. The celebration was a vibrant, music-filled parade and event lifting up voices, creativity and legacy. "Vendors, food, performances. It's gonna be a full day of art and joy and community and celebration," organizers told CBS13. At the California State Library, Sacramento Juneteenth Inc. hosted its 22nd annual Juneteenth VIP reception, and speakers offered a reminder of the day's meaning. "It's important because it's American history. The African American experience in America needs to be talked about. History does not need to be whitewashed or deleted," said Greg Simon, executive director of Sacramento Juneteenth, Inc. At the ceremony, difference makers in Sacramento were honored with the "Community Soldier Award." "Pleshette Robertson, Theo Dickson, as well as Mr. Antonio Harvey. Each year, we give out this award to those unheralded heroes doing work for the community, in the community," said Simon. The celebrations continue into the weekend. Friday and Saturday, Sacramento's Juneteenth Southern Soul Festival will be held in William Land Park featuring musical performances, a parade, a fashion show, more than 80 vendors and much more. More than 5,000 people are expected to attend.

'No One Has Ever!': Jimmy Kimmel Trolls Trump By Exposing His 'Ultimate' Move
Jimmy Kimmel said President Donald Trump has a go-to move when it comes to big decisions: stall for time. The president went to it again this week while trying to decide on military intervention in Iran. 'Trump gave Iran what he called the 'ultimate ultimatum,' which is kind of like the 'final finale,' but scarier,' Kimmel said. 'He really enjoys making threats, and he loves attaching them to timelines.' Trump said he'd make a decision on Iran within two weeks. 'It's always two weeks,' Kimmel pointed out. 'For a guy whose catchphrase was 'You're fired,' no one has ever given more two weeks' notice than Donald J. Trump.' Kimmel rolled a minute-long supercut video of Trump promising various things within two weeks, ending with a vow to sign a new health care plan into law ― also in two weeks. 'That was July 19, 2020,' Kimmel noted. 'We're still waiting for him to sign that health care plan, and on almost all of the other stuff, too.' See more in his Thursday night monologue:
