BREAKING NEWS: The Washington Wizards have agreed to trade for Trae Young, sending CJ McCollum and Corey Kispert to the Atlanta Hawks, sources tell The Athletic's David Aldridge and @joshrobbins.bsky.social.

Instant redemption for Quickley. He hit a triple with a defender flying out at him. Raptors win. Scottie Barnes set one hell of a screen to set him up, and RJ Barrett was huge down the stretch.

Oh no. Toronto chose the worst moment imaginable to give up a straight line drive to LaMelo Ball. Quickley cannot get dusted off the dribble like that. Raptors down 94-96 with just 1.6 secondsd left.

For me, it's the blood splatter on the back of the Renee Nicole Good's headrest. I can't fathom how her wife can survive being haunted by that image for the rest of her life. Gunshots at such close range are barbaric.

Bobby Webster needs to do whatever it takes to get Quickley off the Raptors roster. He's an unreliable shooter that can't defend and has middling playmaking chops. LaMelo would be such a step up. His defense is an issue, but that's down to effort. At 6'7", he's long enough to be very disruptive.

IMHO, they have ~24 hours to arrest the ICE agent before slimy horserace coverage of Renee Good's murder gains more momentum. The usual suspects are gearing up to legitimize and contrast manipulated videos floating around on X with what actually happened-- which will enrage Minnesotans even more.

This is excellent coverage: it gives readers context beyond the specific incident, showing a pattern of excessive force, and also documents that DHS keeps using the same and increasingly debunked explanations. Much better than both sidesing the shooting.

New: DHS is lying to you. At least four videos show what really happened when ICE shot a woman in Minneapolis. Shots clearly fired while vehicle already turning away from the officer. But DHS lied. Trump lied. Noem lied. Even judges have catalogued DHS' serial lying www.404media.co/dhs-is-lying...

I won't say the title race is over. Until Arsenal can mathematically eliminate anyone from overtaking them, it isn't. But if they stretch their lead to 8 points with a win against Liverpool tomorrow, doubt and anxiety will creep into the Man City camp in light of their injuries.

what this should make clear to everyone in this country is that it does not matter who you are, there's no "it could never happen to me" you can be a white woman who drives around with stuffed animals in her car, and they will still kill you in cold blood and call you a domestic terrorist

Ken Jennings has zero fucks to give, and I'm here for it. I expect to see blanket federal pardons for CBP and ICE agents when this nightmare eventually ends, so state AG's need to be ready with state charges. No excuses, no deals, and no "it's time to heal" rhetoric. They need to face consequences.

What the actual fuck is this? "Do you believe me, or your lying eyes" doesn't scratch the surface of how cartoonishly evil this statement is. He doesn't care that ICE murdered someone. DHS has their narrative and they're running with it, facts and video evidence refuting their claims be damned.

masked, unidentified goons who assault and murder with impunity. a literal gestapo.

the video is out, there is no reason to not send local law enforcement to arrest the ice agent in question and yes i know they will refuse to hand them over and you treat that exactly how you would treat it under any other similar circumstance

DHS smearing the driver as a domestic terrorist trying to ram the ICE agent was such an outrageous lie. The press is fond of saying that "Trump has never been accused of a crime" re: Epstein. They need to preface every DHS statement with proof of how often they've been caught lying to protect ICE.

Here's the ICE agent "defending himself" by shooting into the driver's side window of a car that's pulling *away* from him. Put this photo on the front page of every newspaper in America.

This is exactly how Democrats need to respond to this moment. Have the DA bring charges against everyone involved as well. Stop posturing and do something.

Full credit to Jacob Frey for meeting the moment in this presser. Clearly, he's pissed as hell. He just said, "To ICE: get the fuck out of Minneapolis."

Fucking hell. TW: this angle of the ICE agent shooting the driver in Minneapolis is even worse. This is murder. His life wasn't in danger like DHS is claiming. He shot her 3 times because he wanted to. Keith Ellison, the Attorney General of Minnesota, needs to throw murder charges at him.

If the talking points seem familiar, it's because police departments use the same script when cops kill unarmed Black men. "The ICE officer, fearing for his life, the lives of his fellow law enforcement and the safety of the public, fired defensive shots". Except there's video. DHS is lying.

It appears ICE murdered someone in cold blood today and their plan is — per usual — to create a fog of lies so the killer does not face justice. We simply can't let that happen. The shooter has to be arrested and so does Bovino. They can't just kill people on the street.

Holy shit. An ICE agent just shot and killed someone driving away in broad daylight in Minneapolis. We're about to hear, "The agent feared for his life" ad nauseum despite the vehicle clearly driving away from him. The chryon is already running on CNN.

Stand up, Minneapolis. Keeping the pressure up on ICE agents is more important now than ever. They'll threaten, lie, gaslight, and throw up every smokescreen imaginable after what happened today. It's not enough to abolish ICE. State AG's need to start throwing charges at them. Enough is enough.

Fuck Bari Weiss, fuck bootlicking regime propaganda

We’ve seen this in Chicago. Now we’re seeing it across the country. ICE is a lawless secret police force and must be abolished. This is fucking horrific.

keep thinking of a vocally anti-woke reporter who insisted that the term "environmental racism" was nonsense

It's exactly this, yet the news coverage of Trump salivating over Greenland won't go near it. Media can't even be bothered to report the death toll in Venezuela. Everything this fascist regime does is couched (no pun intended) in white supremacy.

I thought this was a really good episode of two people putting words to concepts that we probably all innately know somewhere deep in our brain folds

People will say "impeachment doesn't do anything, so why bother?" And the answer is unless you are personally willing to take up arms in violent revolution, impeachment is the process. Malicious compliance is a thing. You file articles of impeachment until it's all anyone is talking about.

It didn't get much attention at the time, but what a massive fail by Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie to craft the Epstein Files Transparency Act and not include stiff penalties for noncompliance. Increasingly severe fines every day the files weren't released in full should have been mandatory.

Craven cowardice of the highest order. There's no other word for this level of indifference. There isn't a messaging problem re: Venezuela for the Democrats-- it's a refusal to do the right thing *because* it's the right thing. They've utterly failed to meet the moment.

This is piracy under the law of nations. And under section 1651 of title 18 of the United States Code, piracy under the law of nations is punishable by life imprisonment.

New: I spoke with a Colombian asylum seeker who was the victim of a ‘Kavanaugh stop’ about what it was like to be racially profiled, abducted in front his family and held in ICE detention hours from home for more than a month—despite doing everything “the right way.” This is Nick’s story.

It isn't just Keir Starmer and the government to blame if the Palestine Action hunger strikers die-- every MP that refused to condemn this barbarity is complicit. The next post down in this thread spells it out perfectly; labelling someone a terrorist is an effective smear to erode public sympathy.

lmfaoooo what

Back in 1999, I wrote a viral email on a listserv titled Why the Internet is not a replacement for the public library. And a quarter century later, here we are. Recommending a book on enshittification (available at your local library).

Today is one of those days where I’m struck anew by how *bad* the internet has gotten. It’s almost unusable. Clouds, apps, advertising — nothing is where it should be and it’s nigh impossible sometimes to do basic tasks online.

fuck outta here

"We'll work with everybody to make sure that we move forward together" is the sort of mealy-mouthed statement born of wishful thinking. Trump is openly salivating at the prospect of the USA invading and annexing Greenland. Canada can't support that, and Mark Carney has to explicitly say as much.

“If he makes a move on Greenland, the damage that does to America's ability to rally allies - that's devastating." David Rennie, Geopolitics Editor at The Economist, discusses President Trump's foreign policy approach to Greenland. #Newsnight

Canada should be first in line to sign such statements.

Good for RC Strasbourg Supporters' Federation, publishing this statement. I hate that they've become yet another colonized asset for BlueCo to pillage. Until UEFA outlaws multi-club ownership altogether, the likes of BlueCo, RedBird, City Football Group, and Red Bull will keep ruining football.

Walking down the carpeted stairs at my aunt's house while carrying my open laptop, my heel slid out from under me. Cracked laptop screen, sprained ankle and wrist, concussion, and a bruised jaw.

The fact that European states would simply roll over and accept a US seizure of Greenland (and they would), shows how little they have adjusted to the new world.

I would have preferred Liam Rosenior go anywhere else after finishing out the year at Strasbourg, but he would be doing himself a professional (and financial) disservice turning Chelsea down. FWIW, several Chelsea players weren't having Trump at all when he gatecrashed their trophy-lifting moment.

Thread on Rosenoir's opportunity at Chelsea, now confirmed that he will be the next manager. The most high-profile appointment - by far - for a black British manager to date

To quote @sarahkendzior.bsky.social, the US administration is a transnational organized crime network masquerading as a government. Trump, Stephen Miller, and the fascist white nationalist thugs surrounding them will kill, smear, and shake down anyone to achieve their aims. The guardrails are gone.

Clippers escape with the win. Brutal playcall to end it. Jimmy Butler went straight ISO on the baseline with Batum blanketing him, and threw up an airball.

First time Stephen Curry has fouled out since Dec. 17, 2021.

Well, Kobe Sanders just had his "Welcome to the NBA" moment guarding Steph Curry. He got caught up on that screen and Curry drained another 3. From up 14 to just 1, this would be an unforgivable loss.
