I'll remember exactly where I was when Sporting KC won a match without taking a shot for the rest of my life.
This is football heritage.

At the heart of all Trump administration policies is ‘soft eugenics’ thinking – the idea that if you take away life-saving services, then only the strong will survive

Do you realize how much air comes into the United States for free? That’s a tariff. From now on, only homegrown air. If it’s good enough for an American to breathe out, it’s good enough for an American to breathe in.

Not a single international cargo ship at the Port of Seattle. The port is dead. The last ship from China will dock at a West coast port on the 29th, and the last Chinese ship will dock on the East coast around May 10th. After that, there will be no more shipments arriving from China. We’re screwed.

Arne Sorensen would’ve done the same thing
Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.”
He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.”
Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up.
Marriott still has my business.

This weekend will be KC NWSL/Current’s 100th regular season match.
They have 42 regular season wins, 22 draws, and 35 losses. Their 1.495 points per game is 5th-best in league history, just behind FC Kansas City. Not bad considering two seasons ended at or near the bottom of the table.

100% this. The plan is to break it so the only fix is a profit-driven privatized model for Social Security.
🧵I get a lot of questions about what will happen to Social Security payments. The way I see it, there are 3 factors that will impact payments, all of which will feed off each other to exponentially increase the likelihood that SSA will miss payments: backlogs, error, and system failure.
