The President is not legitimate.
His orders are not legitimate (on top of being unconstitutional).
Those who follow and/or enforce his orders are the enemies of the United States of America.

The financial rules exist only to keep lesser clubs from upsetting the established order. Aston Villa (level on points with City) can only sign second-squad teenagers this month because of the same rules that do nothing to rein in City.
The signing of Guehi would take Manchester City's spending to c. £550m in the last 12 months alone.
No end in sight on the 115 charges. Only sends one message to City and any other cheats - do what you like.

I never really thought Dems were gonna nominate him in 28, but this closes the lid on that possibility, imo.
Only 15 days in and we have a strong contender for most embarrassing headline of the year.
Ben. Shapiro. The guy who can't get his wife wet. The guy who needs an old person to open the pickle jar for him.

The failure to prosecute January 6th like the insurrection it was is what got him elected back to office. Trump should've been behind bars on January 21.

Another critical piece of missing context in this story: tax dollars flow from the MSP metro to rural Minnesota. People in the city subsidize the lifestyles of people living in the country minnesotareformer.com/2023/12/04/t...

Nisswa is 140 miles from Minneapolis. Almost 2-1/2 hours by car.
NYTimes has truly outdone itself with this latest in its "ask white guys in diner" genre. Thank goodness we get a perspective on what's happening in Minneapolis from people in **Nisswa** who probably mean Brainerd when they say they "prefer not to go the city anymore" www.nytimes.com/2026/01/15/u...

Brooke Rollins: "We've run over 1,000 simulations. It can cost around $3 a meal for a piece of chicken, a piece of broccoli, corn tortilla, and one other thing. So there is a way to do this that actually will save the average American consumer money."

I always figured when World War 3 came around, we wouldn't be on Russia's side.

It's been a while since the Red Sox front office did/did not do a thing where I can unequivocally say "it is good that they did/did not do that."
It is good that they signed Ranger Suarez.

So before the cameras rolled someone told Trump it was a jug of whole milk and Trump wondered aloud how you would put a hole in milk and someone had to explain to him what whole milk is.
Trump: "It's actually a legal definition -- 'whole milk.' And it's whole with a W for those of you that have a problem."

It's like he doesn't even understand the point of "news". It's not there to be agreed or disagreed with. It's news. It's stuff that actually happened and is of some importance.
Been reading this over and over and can't for the life of me understand what he's even trying to say. This is a lot of words to say... nothing.

Absurd.
I am introducing the Quick Recognition (QR) Act, which requires ICE and CBP officers to wear uniforms featuring QR codes. When scanned, the code would generate a digital ID displaying the officer’s name, badge number, and law enforcement agency.
ICE should be unmasked both physically and digitally.

I’m 54 years old. If Tomlin genuinely stepped down and wasn’t pushed out, then the Steelers have still not fired a head coach in my lifetime.
BREAKING: Steelers coach Mike Tomlin is stepping down after 19 seasons in Pittsburgh, per source.
He just notified the team in a meeting.

I would often go to the editorial page after finishing the comics. Especially if the sports section was unavailable. At least there were more cartoons to look at and try to decipher what made them funny. Doonesbury and Pat Oliphant are what made me care about politics.
