#RipCity read what you will into this article that talks about Billups and Lue.
Before I was an NBA writer, I was a pro poker player for 12 years. I played against many pro athletes, including Ty Lue a few times.

Here's a snapshot of that period of my life, and thoughts on Lue's alleged connection to Chauncey Billups' private game:

Tyronn Lue's reputation inside the Las Vegas poker circles was a good one among us professional players.

A different take on Schumer and the job he's doing.
If you’ve not already seen it, Lawrence O’Donnell’s ‘A’ block last night was longer than usual and worth watching for a different take on the recent Senate Dems’ votes on the Trump shutdown:

@govpritzker.illinois.gov why are you allowing Illinois State Police to assist these thugs? Stop it! 💙
Making fun of our neighborhoods and communities is disgusting.

Greg Bovino and his masked agents are not here to make Chicago safer. As children are tear gassed and U.S. citizens detained, they are posing for photo ops and producing reality TV moments. blockclubchicago.org/2025/11/10/b...
Border Patrol Agents Pose At The Bean For Apparent Photo Op
The photo op came after agents tear-gassed a Little Village street and were spotted in the area numerous times. At the Bean, one agent shouted, "Everyone say, 'Little Village!'"

My entire life Republicans’ game has been to stymy, undercut & undermine when Democrats have power so they can point to the resulting failings as evidence progressive policies are dysfunctional & then they get power & aggressively gut every social gain & Dems are still like ‘maybe we can negotiate’

If you can't play hard ball as a leader of the opposition to an authoritarian regime, you should not be the leader. The real leaders need to stand up and push aside the weaklings like Schumer.

What a sucker.
Shaheen: "We've heard from a number of our colleagues on the other side of the aisle that they're willing to come to the table, they're willing to work with us once the govt is open to get this done. We've heard the same thing from the White House. So now we'll see if they're really gonna work w/us"

F-NO!
The Senate might fold, but I sure as hell won’t.

Families are getting crushed by rising costs & as these healthcare tax credits expire, it’s only going to get worse.

And now the Senate wants us to “trust” them to fix it later with a debate on a bill, maybe?

I’m a F-NO!

I refuse to support a funding bill that fails to address the Republican health care crisis.

And make health insurance affordable.

The American people clearly understand the stakes and the urgency. We must too.

I'm voting no.

Do not negotiate with terrorists. Go fuck yourself, Schumer.
Senate Democrats are meeting behind closed doors to discuss the emerging deal. “Stay tuned,” Schumer tells us with a grin.

🚨 Breaking:

Local law enforcement - Seaside and Astoria Police have gone on the record stating they are not cooperating with ICE stormtroopers.

5 victims have been detained, all kidnapped on their way to work yesterday.

Most if not all local restaurants closed as soon as ICE presence was known.

BOOST this, ffs

THIS is the story of where we are now.
Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women and children are separated. Children come home from school and find that their parents are gone.

Reminder of the food drive today from 11-3 at Mendenhall Mall Parking Lot!

They are accepting non-perishable goods for the food bank, Thanksgiving-specific items for holiday food delivery baskets, and animal food.
Juneau Central Labor Council has their annual food drive Saturday November 8th from 11-3, but I think all the organizations are accepting donations: both monetary and non perishable items
