I see a lot of people complaining that Pluribus is slow and boring.

This is what TV and movies used to be like before Netflix changed the law requiring characters to explain the plot in the first 15 minutes of runtime.

One thing I’m thinking about today: striking workers from Starbucks Workers United. I haven’t been to Starbucks since I learned about the current strike because I’m pro-union and will never cross a picket line. If you support unions, consider opting for another coffee shop in solidarity. #Unions

Tim, when you start losing the support of Virginians like me—someone who has known you since you were an unelected Richmond lawyer—you’re headed for trouble.
WELKER: Massie and Khanna say they are looking at options including impeachment and contempt for DOJ officials. Would you support those steps?

KAINE: I think that's premature

Dayton offense looks better when L’Etang and Bennett get most of the touches.

Solid promotional ad by UD during this TV timeout. “You’re not just gonna fly; you’re gonna soar.” (Approximate). Nice. #ZeroBidLeague

AOC: I want to remind you where the real crime is. It's in the oligarchs taking $170 billion of our money from health care and food assistance and public programs and taking that and funneling it into a secret police program.

Little bit of Havoc created turnovers and attacking the rim created a scoring run. Rams 67-48 over Niagara. 5:24 left. #LetsGoVCU

VCU with a lot of matador defense in the paint, not creating extra possessions, and 1-7 from the line. Lead Niagara only 37-34 at half. Terence and Brandon playing well. Like to see more Evans and Bell at same time. #LetsGoVCU

12 dead at a mass shooting at a Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach.💔

A 43-year-old father of two, Ahmed al Ahmed, snuck up & tackled a gunman to disarm him. Ahmed was shot twice.

Both Jewish & Muslim faiths teach that “to save one life is to save all humanity.” Let us hold fast to our humanity.❤️

Trump sent Vance there twice. He threatened to cut off all federal spending to the state. He vowed to back primary challengers of any Republican who voted against him here. He posted their names online, prompting his fans to send them death threats.

But all that failed, so now he wasn't involved.
Reporter: The senate in Indiana voted against the redistricting effort.

Trump: I wasn't working on it very hard. I wasn't very much involved

From @prisonpolicy.org: New analysis of government data from ICE via the Deportation Data Project shows federal agents reliant on local jails and police to reach their arrest numbers.

Federal agents are arresting American citizens.

This isn’t about public safety - it’s about stoking fear.

Notre Dame wants to have its cake & eat it too. Stays independent and keeps ALL the football 💰 from its NBC deal, while benefiting from ACC relationship in all other sports. Yet ND’s mad when the league advocates for its football member school (and the significant 💰) on behalf of the ACC. Fuck ND.

Two predictions about the CFP era:

1. Conferences eventually doing away with champ games since upsets screw the conference out of a spot (U Va vs Duke).

2. More of the below when coaches bolt for a new job. It’s sad

Methinks Duke helped Miami get into the CFP because I’m seriously doubting the Committee will leave a P4 conference completely out of the playoff (and the money), especially when UM beat ND.
