Rocky began as a script about one man's struggle, but five decades later, it has become a global symbol of perseverance that transcends borders. As we celebrate America 250, people still show up to run those same steps Rocky ran in 1976, all 72 of them. Narrated by Sylvester... show more

Can one person change culture by telling a better story? Sylvester Stallone did. In the 70s, Hollywood had been trapped in a cycle of dark, cynical films that Stallone saw as "anti-Christ." But Rocky (1976) changed that. Its success ushered in a new era of hopeful stories.

ROCKY written by and starring Sylvester Stallone hit screens on this day in 1976. It would go on to become the top grossing film of the year and win three of its ten Academy Award Nominations including Best Picture. I don’t know how many times I saw this film growing up, but it was A LOT! Its success and impact highlighted the power of popular culture as I know I am certainly not the only one inspired by Rocky’s journey. Happy Birthday Rocky! And thank you to Sylvester Stallone for creating one of the most iconic and inspirational characters in film history! “Keep Punching!” Who’s watching Rocky tonight to celebrate?

The Gaza Flotilla has had a rocky start with allegations of sexual misconduct by a “leader”. Here one of them pleads that Gaza is the frontline of “global resistance” and they shouldn’t fight each other. Seeing Israel as the source of all evil makes you blind.

Bucket List cross off… we ran the #Rocky steps this morning WHILE getting a FaceTime from Sylvester Stallone himself for a little words of encouragement. See how we did tomorrow on #FOXNFLSUNDAY before Philadelphia Eagles vs Washington Commanders NFC Championship Game. Sly has been a veryyyy close friend for a long time, on top of that I boxed in Philly for a bit in 1988-1989 but despite both this was the first time I ever ran those majestic steps. LOVED IT but more so love what they stand for! Thanks for giving every underdog hope Sly!!! FOX Sports: NFL Thank you Damen Diva #rocky #keeppunching #philadelphia

We’ve celebrated our “diversity” so much that we forgot all the ways we’re really the same as Americans, bound by ideals that united a divided, headstrong group of people 250 years ago. I believe deep in my bones those ideals still exist. I’m running for President to revive them.

"We remember the blessings of God and the gift of freedom. We need also to remember the responsibility that comes as a result. A nation is not held together by prosperity alone, but by truth, virtue, and the character of its people." . The real story of America has always been about God. As America marks 250 years, this is a moment to remember, not just celebrate. It is a time to thank God for His blessings, reflect on the spiritual foundations of our nation, and return to His Word as the authority for our lives and our future. The hope of a nation is not found in prosperity alone, but in truth, virtue, prayer, and the character of its people. . Celebrating 250 Years #4thOfJuly #America250 #IndependenceDay

Today, war has become an unfortunate necessity for us in response to a certain situation. However, as a Nation and as a People we must always keep this quality about us that we are not ruled by hatred and we never take pleasure in violence towards anyone for any reason. At the same time, we have a duty and a Responsibility toward our own people to address certain situations and that is what the Nation is doing. This is not a war of hate but one of necessity. Let it remain so. -Sg

Sylvester Stallone says he wrote the original Rocky script in three and a half days Sistine: "But obviously it worked out, you wrote the script in three days? Four days?" Sylvester: "Three and a half days" "I tell young people that want to be writers, don't get so hung up on the perfection. Know that 90 percent of it is garbage" "The fact that you got through, that's amazing, that you actually got a beginning, middle, and then, no matter how flawed, that's the hard part, because 90 percent of the writers, they go up to about page 80 and they burn out, they don't have that finale. If you happen to have an ending, you're home free"

A night to celebrate the First Amendment abruptly ended by a gunman, permitted by the Second Amendment, to own those weapons. The threat of violence is now a cost of public life in America, but as Margaret Brennan notes, let’s reflect on how we stop hate from corroding our democracy and grasp onto our civility before we lose it.

Anchor yourself to American Made. The anchor bracelet was one of the first products that helped build my brand KJP. For America’s 250th, we pulled out the original dies from those early days, reworked them to read USA 250 and created a limited run of just 250 bracelets. Each one is cut, stamped, tied, finished, and packed by hand here in Rhode Island, in the same factory where so much of our story began. 250 bracelets for 250 years. A little piece of American made history, from our hands to yours. ⚓️🦅🇺🇸

Mamdani: The powerful have always known their answer. America, in their view, is an arena of supremacy, where only a select few are allowed freedom, where not all are created equal. America, if you ask them, becomes less the more people it welcomes. America, they will tell you, belongs only to those with the right accent or the right shade of skin. The rest of us, they insist, should be grateful for merely being allowed to visit. How small they are, how weak, how unoriginal. At every moment in our past, those who led through exclusion and isolation have tried to win power and enrich themselves by turning us against one another. Division is the oldest trick in politics, and the cheapest. But time and again-including 250 years ago-those forces of division have been vanquished by the forces of progress. And yet today, too many of our leaders do not believe in a vision of this nation as an asylum for the persecuted-but rather as one that persecutes those seeking asylum. As we mark 250 years, what do we see? We see a city of contradictions within a nation of contradictions. We see the wealthiest country in the history of the world— one where children go to sleep hungry while the world's first trillionaire hungers for more. We see monopolies that dominate every industry and oligarchs who buy elections. We see masked agents terrorizing our streets, eating food cooked by our undocumented neighbors before spiriting them away in unmarked vans. We see a nation whose immense wealth has been built by those with calloused, dirt-streaked hands —those who toil on factory floors and chisel into stone —and we see a nation that has allowed so much of that wealth to be held instead in the soft hands of a precious few.

In what is being called The Gayest Cope of All Time, Bill Burr has attempted to rebrand his acceptance of Saudi royal money as a humanitarian mission, with the goal of “moving them a little towards us.” He then says America Bad too, because we’re “grabbing moms and dads and sticking them in a van for making illegal tacos to go to Alligator Alcatraz.” followed by “Some day they’re going to run out of Brown people to put in those vans, but they’ll still have the vans, so you shouldn’t be feeling comfortable about it. 😔”

15 days ago, Rocky came in as close to death as is possible for a dog to be. It has been a battle to get him back into shape but I think you will agree that he is looking fantastic. People often ask me how you put up with the cruelty when you deal with dogs and it's a very good question. The answer actually comes from dogs themselves. You have to take it one day at a time. What has happened in the past is the past. All we can do, just like dogs, is enjoy the moment and the day that we have. Today was a gorgeous sunny Sunday and myself and Rocky had smoked salmon. He followed me for a proper walk down Hope Avenue. He had lots of belly rubs and he was as gentle and kind as a dog could be. Sometimes you just have to forget about what's happened in the past and not look too far into the future. We're all very guilty of it but Rocky has taught me to enjoy the moment, the present. He’s a very good boy is our Rocky ❤️

What if we could end poverty by just … giving people the money necessary to lift them out of it? That idea has had bipartisan appeal in recent years. But, as our new video explains, a recent experiment showed … it doesn’t quite work out as planned.

"I just spent time in California, and what I saw doesn’t match the headlines." "Everywhere I went, I met conservatives. A lot of them. But the state isn’t run by its people anymore it’s run by a political cartel." "Remember when California was solid red? It used to be one of the strongest conservative states in the country. Now, decades of bad leadership have turned it upside down." "The proof is right there on the streets: tents, homelessness, poverty everywhere. Side by side with the rich and famous. That’s what California has become a place of extremes, broken by the very people in charge."

Joe Rogan tells a crazy story about aliens crashing in Brazil. Whole town witnesses it. A military cop grabs a wounded alien creature with his bare hands, rushes it to the hospital, then he dies from some untreatable infection. "One of the police officers carried this wounded alien in the back of a car." "There's records of them bringing this to the hospital. The hospital said, "We can't handle this... take it to a different hospital." "Then the guy who carried that thing gets severe bacterial infection unresponsive to antibiotics and dies." "Multiple witnesses say they saw another one of them. There was like couple of them. One of them was injured that they picked up. And there was another one of those there. Then many people in the town said that they saw another craft come by to retrieve those aliens." "It's the same stories told independently by a bunch of people." The town even has a statue commemorating it.

Sylvester Stallone on the "blissful stupidity" that got Rocky made Sylvester Stallone turned down $265,000 when he had $106 in the bank. He explained why to Johnny Carson, weeks after *Rocky* opened. Carson set it up by telling his audience he had watched the film with a room full of friends and everyone got up saying it was a knockout. "I have met no one yet really who has seen the picture who did not like it," he said. The film had already won best film of the year from Scholastic Magazine and Coronet Magazine. Carson's point: if somebody made a movie about how this movie got made, the audience wouldn't buy it. Stallone agreed, and gave the reason it worked anyway: "It was quite a long shot; if I had known it was gonna be that difficult I wouldn't have done it. I think it was a classic case of blissful stupidity because I didn't know you couldn't do something like this." His financing strategy was not sophisticated: "To me it seemed very normal honking your horn in the driveway of the producer and tapping on his window at all hours of the night and saying please, please, please. Eventually, I think they just gave me the money to go away." The script came out of his own dead end. He was turning 30, had been acting for ten years, and had concluded nothing was going to happen. So he took his own plight, "my inability to be recognized as an actor," and, in his words, put it in boxing shorts. "When you're a down-and-out underdog fighter, that's about as low down as you can get." The studio liked it. They also wanted somebody else in it. Stallone lists the names that came up: James Caan, Ryan O'Neal, Burt Reynolds. All bankable. None of them him. So they made offers. First $100,000 for the script. Then, as he puts it, $150,000 "to take a walk." He said no. They came back at $265,000. Carson asked him directly what goes through your head when someone offers you two hundred and sixty-five thousand dollars. "Well I said that's a lot of bread. Well after I stood up, you know it's one of those things. I felt as though the money meant nothing when you haven't dealt in money that much; it really had no bearing." He had about $106 in the bank at the time. His explanation for turning down more than 2,500 times that: a number that large was so far outside his experience that it had no emotional weight. Carson compared it to a man at the racetrack who wins $100,000, loses it all by the end of the day, and reports his loss as six dollars. Stallone's summary of his own position was one line: "So it really didn't bother me, plus $106 was gaining interest." The thing he was protecting was not the script. It was the part. And the part was the point of the script in the first place. "Many people consider it a fight film which is not true; there's only like nine minutes of fighting."
