What is the British version of "You have no authority over us. Get fucked" @leftback.bsky.social @greggc.bsky.social ?
Trump's censor in chief at the FCC, Brendan Carr, just sent a letter to the heads of BBC, NPR and PBS informing them he's launching a "news distortion" probe into the BBC's editing of a documentary on Trump's Jan. 6 activities.

Republicans are for states rights until they're against them.
You see the thing about Republicans is they’re really passionate about states rights
Here’s the Trump executive order that would ban state AI laws

The silver lining to Trumpian fascism is that he keeps appointing people who are incompetent at doing the fascism.
BREAKING: Big trouble for government in Comey case as judge zeroes in on failure to present final indictment to grand jury. Judge Nachmanoff also called Halligan to the lectern, prompting her first substantive public comments on the case. w/ @kyledcheney.bsky.social www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

Just stop having a preexisting condition.
Markwayne Mullin: "Reward people for being healthy. Think about this. Healthcare is the only industry that you're not rewarded for taking care of your responsibility. If you think about homeowners insurance, if you're within 500 feet of a fire hydrant, your insurance goes down."

OOTP is not real life of course, but Year 1 of my Angels save has Taylor Ward just looking like A Guy. Not sure if I'd take Rodriguez straight up for him, but I'd at least go through all the Orioles prospects trying to get at least a 30 FV guy thrown in only to have the Orioles reject every one.
Almost every time an MLB trade happens, I can see the logic for both sides.
In this O's-Angels trade, I can't find the logical underpinning unless Baltimore is really worried about Rodriguez's recovery from elbow issues.

Under-the-weather TikTokers are slicing raw potatoes and placing them in their — and their children’s — socks before bed. The theory is that the potato draws out toxins.
However, experts warn against relying on folk remedies over medical care.

"AKSHUALLY it's ephebophilia."
Dershowitz: The predecessor on your show described Epstein as a convicted pedophile. He pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. That’s not a pedophile.

That's pretty much what I figured they'd have to do: A two-month winter break with games in southern or domed stadiums bookending it.
MLS will take a break from mid-December through early to mid-February, as reported yesterday.
Will likely see more games in warmer markets in December/Feb, and conversely more in northern markets in July-August.
But never more than 3 in row for a team at home/away.

"don't worry, he's just into 15-year-olds" perhaps not as exculpatory as you think
Also 15-year-olds are not "barely legal." They are minors.
