Tomorrow 24 humanitarian volunteers face 20 years in prison in a Greek court for saving lives at sea. One, Seán Binder, grew up in my local town, Castlegregory, Kerry.

People who save lives should not be criminalized
European governments are not only failing people seeking protection, they’re also punishing those who try to fill that dangerous gap.

This Blazers team is very very fun. Great mix of young and veterans players with a ton of talent. Jrue Holiday is essential.

Pt1 🧵: Greta Thunberg deported to Athens says, "There's a live-streamed Genocide in front of our eyes in Gaza. No one will be able to say they didn't know this was happening. The Global Samud Flotilla only existed because our leaders failed. Our international systems are betraying Palestinians."

We need to talk about last night at ICE in Portland.

So much of last night was bait, but not in a way I've seen before.

I specifically want to talk about the removal of Joey Gibson.

In Dublin right now and this dude just got a whole glass of Guinness, put it on the bar, bent down and dunked his entire face into the foamy glass, grabbed the glass with his teeth, and tilted back and chugged the whole glass hands free. Put the glass down and his nose was soaked in creamy foam.

This is the second day in a row he’s said this. This is an intentional normalization effort.
Trump: "The line is that I'm a dictator, but I stop crime. So a lot of people say, 'You know, if that's the case, I'd rather have a dictator.'"

I can’t stand bullies. 😤 Doesn’t matter if they’re on the playground, in the boardroom, or sitting in the Oval Office. Trump’s threats to our sanctuary laws are nothing but cheap intimidation — and I’m not here for it. 😒

We protect our neighbors. We protect our values.

U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said sanctuary jurisdictions could lose federal funding, and officials there could face criminal prosecution if the Justice Department determines they are unlawfully impeding federal immigration enforcement.
Trump officials tell Oregon to abandon sanctuary law or face consequences
Gov. Tina Kotek was one of dozens of elected officials across the country to receive the letter.

Starlink's connection speeds drop below the federal definition of "broadband" at a density of ~7 customers per square mile, according to recent research. The more the customers in an area, the slower everybody's connections get. Data shows that 83% of US Starlink customers get sub-broadband speeds.

The thing that is most impressive about Hansen is the offense often moves because of him. He is constantly active so he is either setting screens, in motion, or when he has the ball in his hands he is making the right decisions and keeping the motion. Very impressive for a young big man.

Happy Pride everyone. I wrote a column about gay rights pioneer Thom Higgins, who called Minnesota home for most of his (too short) life. I really want more people to know the story of this remarkable guy. Please read and share (gift link)!

I had no idea that the guy who coined “gay pride” is the same guy that pied Anita Bryant. Fucking iconic, a national treasure.
