"Bobrovsky's in the blue paint, it's Arvidsson's job to avoid him."
I thought that was the rule, but I guess only 1 team gets it.
Nothing I hate worse in sports than inconsistent officiating.

Concerning the Mason Rudolph et al. incident, if the @pittsburghsteeler.bsky.social are serious about its position, why not sue Rudolph et al. for trademark (maybe copyright) infringement/misappropriation? Unauthorized use of your IP would usually be a big problem for teams. Why not here?

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.

I wonder if the use of the word "facilitate" here simply means "remove all barriers to effectuate the closure," or it means something closer to "get it done." This is a line from Trump's own EO directing the closure of the Department of Education.

Can we acknowledge that not even Richard Nixon, a President we hold up as a paragon of unethical conduct in the Office, was willing to defy an order from SCOTUS?
It's not even like it was a close vote either. Not even the Conservative justices made a separation of powers dissent.

UPDATE: It happened. In an 11:15 meeting, employees were told that the office has been eliminated and their positions will be terminated.
SCOOP: sources tell me that the State Dept plans to eliminate its only office to counter foreign disinformation, as soon as today, delivering a win to foreign governments like Russia, Iran, and China—and the office's mostly conservative critics.

Over 120,000 Japanese Americans forced into imprisonment in internment camps simply because they were of Japanese heritage.
On this Day of Remembrance, we honor the 120,000 Japanese Americans unjustly imprisoned during WWII because of their heritage. Their resilience remind us to never forget the lessons of history. We will continue to fight for justice, equality, and civil rights for all.

Strong rumor with credible sourcing: DOJ has put all of public integrity line attorneys in a room and told them they have an hour for someone to choose who will sign motion to dismiss and if nobody does, they will all be fired. The nastiest strong-arming in DOJ history by a long shot.
