your movement has to be like 8 levels removed from reality to think that some of the starving kids in gaza also having serious medical conditions makes Israel look better. it's completely insane. they just think because it's an additional fact it's somehow exonerating.
Jewish Federations applauds Olivia Reingold, a staff writer at Bari Weiss's Free Press, as she victory laps her (ghoulish and erroneous) reporting that some of the children Israel was starving to death and denying medical aid to in Gaza had pre-existing conditions.

Were there actually people from the Musky site here this morning? Must be quite the culture shock to see a bunch of well-meaning weird nonsense and arguments instead of a bunch of ads and bots promoting the Great Replacement Theory or whatever that place is now...

NEW: When Andrew Tate landed in the US, Customs & Border Protection seized his electronic devices. But @propublica.org found that a White House official told DHS to return the devices, emphasizing that the request came from the White House.

The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation
Federal authorities were chided for seizing electronic devices from Tate and his brother, and told to return them, records and interviews show. Experts said the intervention was highly inappropriate.

We went from prohibiting sports betting to having it be ubiquitous with pretty much no guardrails. Prohibition isn't the answer, but betting sponsorships of teams/leagues/broadcast networks, mobile betting and prop bets shouldn't exist anymore. Make people go to a casino to bet on teams.

This is a good take. Raleigh had possibly the best season ever for a catcher. Judge had damn near a 10 WAR while winning the slash line triple crown. All in on Judge takes Cal doing it as Catcher for granted, all in on Cal takes Judge's greatness for granted. Either would've been a good choice...
Raleigh had a remarkable season, one I'll never forget. Judge was just ... a little bit better. I think it was reasonable to make up the gap with intangibles and ineffables and whatnots, but ultimately, I also think Judge was the right choice. But it wouldn't have been a robbery either way IMO.

The MLS Calendar change is good, BUT also only knocks out June and January. From extensive personal experience, I can tell you Ft. Lauderdale in July-September and Chicago in December/February are miserable times to spend hours outdoors. Do I trust MLS to figure out how to mitigate that? Maybe?

This. "Fun" fact: DJT lost the popular vote by more in 2016 than he won it by in 2024. The only smaller popular vote margins in the past 50 years were 1976 and 2000.
I feel like Jamelle Bouie has been making this point a lot. Even when Trump has won elections, he’s *never* won a majority of the electorate. It has been standard operating procedure since Bush 43 to claim mandates even with flimsy margins of victory though.
Some Dems and pundits overread the significance of Trump's win. They looked at dissatisfaction with the border and discerned a seismic cultural reaction to immigration levels inside the country. The former was real. The latter is a mirage.

Lots of hard, shitty lessons being learned from this presidency. And one of the many I hope you're learning is, white supremacy is incompatible with reality, and cannot exist without historical revisionism.
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Probably should've predicted Fulham would lose to Everton away and Mizzou football would pile up yet another loss to a Top 10 team, but it's the hope that kills you... At least I didn't watch Wimbledon shipping 5 goals and the YouTubeTV dispute will prevent me from being disappointed by FSU again.

Don't forget that Mucks or whatever his name is used the blanket authority he was gifted with zero oversight to indiscriminately slash government programs which has already led to hundreds of thousands of deaths.
This is what oligarchy looks like:
If you're Elon Musk, the richest man alive, Tesla gives you a $1 trillion pay package & Trump gives you a huge tax break.
If you're a poor kid on SNAP, Trump appeals a court decision that would have prevented you from going hungry.
