Not really feeling like Mr Elbows Up is going to tell them to buzz off if it means he can kick the Trump trade interference can down the road.

Catholic influencers logging on to vatican dot va this morning

so bluesky finally got some thiel money huh

"hi, we're a tech vendor you actually use and we're holding an event in your city. Even though you hate events, you're interested, right?" *grudgingly* sure "First thing we're going to tell you is that we are paying a sportsball guy to give a keynote about resilence" but this is why I hate events

Twelve Jobs Nigel has earned over £1 million in additional income since the general election. To understand the scale of it, since the July 2024 election he's earned roughly £100k more as a brand ambassador for Direct Bullion than Starmer gets as PM. www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news...

I really don't know what to do about a situation where a plurality of the group that (rightly!) takes up most government spending thinks that it is unrepresented in politics.

Coming soon to a World Cup near you

Watching the Fox broadcast and they just referred to Ernie Clement as "a guy no one has heard of" He's played 434 MLB games. I'm not saying you need to know every MLBer. But maybe, as a broadcaster, act like your viewers may know what product they're watching?

"Start spreading the news, bitches!"

I've always hated that the phrase "FOI nerd" exists. The whole principle of freedom of information is that the information belongs to everyone, the public. You should not require specialist knowledge the navigate the process. But the reality is you do, and it's so clearly that way by design.

Well, well, well. 👀

the Jays beating the Yankees is an important reminder that as dark as things may seem, bad things can still happen to bad people

Yeeeeeeessssssss #bluejays

American citizen, read this. www.koin.com/news/portlan...

Nice one Fisher. Really tightened up after the first few pitches #bluejays

"Antifa has been around in various iterations for almost 100 years in some instances, going back to the Weimar Republic in Germany." - Jack Posobiec at Trump's roundtable on antifa

Good lord. @apnews.com

Pritzker: "He wants to militarize major cities because he wants us to get used to the idea of troops on the streets. I believe he's gonna post people outside of polling places and if he needs to in order to control those elections, he'll assume control of the ballot boxes & count the votes himself"

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in. Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators. The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

twice a year the entire U.S. press becomes a marketing extension of a single billionaire-owned retailer, and nobody in any position of editorial power thinks it's weird or gross

Cigna stop sending me LLM services without identifying them as such challenge

The emerging vision for East Harbour. 👀

Never forget that Dolly Parton gave a million bucks for covid research at the *very start* of the pandemic—including money that helped fund the development of the Moderna vaccine.

Oh Barger no #bluejays

I’ve seen similar bravery from clergy around my way. It’s crazy because after growing up in the South I would never have expected the resistance to fascism to include white clergy members. The padres and madres north of the Mason-Dixon are a different fuckin’ breed and I’m here for it.

LOL even the Sportsnet crew were agreeing that was interference #Bluejays #Yankees

Good reporting on the South Shore raid from South Side weekly here. Confirms one thing I was told but didn't put in my own piece because I didn't have a second source and it seemed too insane: border agents segregated arrested residents by race southsideweekly.com/federal-agen...

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Patience got Santander his reward there #bluejays

“And now, officially, something essential is lost” Spot-on stuff from Leander Schaerlaeckens for @theguardian.com on Uefa’s supposedly reluctant decision to allow European league games to be played abroad and how this is fully the Americanisation of football. www.theguardian.com/football/202...

When Trump referred to a congressperson as "low IQ" today, I didn't need to look up her sex and skin colour.

This display of grovelling subservience defines Mark Carney, both as a politician and as a man

Hard to compete with this.

The negotiators of the GFA were so right in weaving the ECHR into the agreement, how easily and glibly our rights, circumstances and lives are written off by the ‘moderate’ commentator class, just as fast as the English electorate. We are just an obstacle to be got around and ignored

Feel free to attribute the following to a former OMB General Counsel: The supposed "new legal analysis" is, to use a technical legal term, horseshit. What the law actually says is that when Congress enacts a law ending a lapse, furloughed employees get paid at the earliest date possible. Period.

Well, there's a jarring sequence of words to read. www.bloomberg.com/opinion/feat...

Weird that the same country that found a way to make torture legal 20 years ago is doing this now

"Parente said the video shows an agent turn a federal vehicle left into Martinez’s vehicle, after which an agent says, 'Do something b----.' The agent then exits the vehicle and shoots at Martinez."

Shit like this turns me into Bull McCabe in the Field

War on Christmas 😔

"IT ABSOLUTELY WILL STOP!!!"

Trump on pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell: Haven't heard the name in so long. I’ll take a look at it. I’ll speak to the DOJ. A lot of people have asked me for pardons. Reporter: But she’s convicted of sex trafficking Trump: I’ll have to take a look at it.

Daughter of Robin Williams, Zelda Williams 💔

Not a serious person. Zero mention of what this would mean for the over a million British citizens whose own access to welfare in the EU is protected by the withdrawal agreement.
