Everyone celebrating or encouraging athletes in men’s sports for coming out post-Heated Rivalry need to understand the context the show exists in. This soccer ref went viral for proposing to his fiancé on the pitch & then they were assaulted in their home after receiving threats.

I know here in the states, people will focus on Chloe winning silver and getting upset, but the real story is Choi was smacked in the first run, fell in the 2nd run, and score a 90 in her final run. She earned the gold.

Choi after a nasty 1st fall, scores a 90.25 to take the lead.

Seems like a lot of evidence against a “the failure was democratic messaging” story of 2024. What’s happening, that people disapprove of, is exactly what prominent democrats said would happen (and often was written down in Project 2025).
New poll: In 2024, low-engagement voters went for Trump over Harris by 11 percentage points. But now they disapprove of the way he's handling the presidency by 13. They have moved 25 points against Trump — 2x as large as the shift for high-knowledge voters www.gelliottmorris.com/p/trump-lost...
Trump has lost the voters who weren’t paying attention in 2024
The least-engaged Americans have swung 25 points against him since 2024 — about twice the shift among everyone else. Trump has flattened the engagement gap.

That’s a hard hit on the lip for the South Korean snowboarder. When the action happened, you noticed the camera expanded the shot. Hope she’s alright. That’s a big hit.

It’s been deleted, but the spokesman for @katmabu.bsky.social attacked one of our state’s Democratic senators.

One might say “Birds of a feather…”

Heraskevych’s choice to forfeit the medal chance instead of give up the memorial helmet is the biggest story in Ukraine today. Everyone is heartbroken but there is a unanimous consensus that this was what had to happen rather than to give up.

Luge Team Relay seems cool but the most nerve-wrecking is you have to hit the pad after the run. If you forget, team doesn’t finish. It’s like the U.S. Men’s Track team and the baton.

I will always consider it a failure of both legacy and new media that they did not understand who this man was, what he was capable of, and communicate to the public the threat he posed and what it would mean to reelect him. Not to let the public off the hook, but the media arrogance was staggering.
Trump is losing the war over ICE — both the culture war and the war in the streets.

If the government can take away your voting rights for a felony conviction, and they also decide what constitutes a felony, and they also decide who’s charged with the felony, and they also decide who’s prosecuted for the felony, you don’t have a right to vote.
Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger endorsed a constitutional amendment to automatically restore voting rights to people with felony convictions when they leave prison. State lawmakers passed the amendment and it will now appear on the state ballot.

Oh now they realize it.
(AXIOS) - President Trump has become so politically toxic that voters now say Joe Biden — whose unpopularity forced him into early retirement — did a better job as president, according to three new polls.

Even if Breezy loses, she wins. She technically got 2 gold medals.
US skier Breezy Johnson got a gold medal in the Olympic downhill Sunday and an engagement ring Thursday after she crashed in the Super G (she’s OK).

They met on Bumble. She knit his hat.
