Sports in Charlie Kirk’s America
When sports leagues celebrate a man who profited on hate and division, it doesn’t just undercut the myth of unity in sports—it exposes what sports have become in Charlie Kirk’s America.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre just said Charlie Kirk was killed “for having expressed contrary views.”
We still don’t know who was responsible for this shooting or why they did it.

John Oliver dug up old footage of Trump defending corruption on TV.
He also issued the first-ever corporate pardon to BitMEX, "which had been sentenced to a $100 million fine for violating an anti-money laundering law."

Here’s last night’s story about deferred prosecution agreements, or DPAs, and how they’re helping corporations avoid prosecution for serious crimes. It’s also about things like NPAs at places like UBS, and the larger question of how many acronyms John can say in one episode. youtu.be/xNo8Ve-Ej6U

This week’s main story is about what happens when a corporation gets caught committing a crime and why the answer is often: not much! Which is a real bummer. But the story is also about how babies are tiny idiots, so that part is fun!! God, those little guys are just not smart yet.

Mark Carney was asked whether the US strikes on Iran were a violation of international law. In response, he ignored the substance of the question and listed off a bunch of grievances the West has with Iran.
It’s a shameful and cowardly response from someone who claims to defend international law.
