Trump in 2020: We have to go by the laws. We can't move in the National Guard. I can call insurrection but there's no reason to ever do that, even in a Portland case. We can't call in the National Guard unless we're requested by a governor.

Trump promised to go after immigrants with criminal records, not order a military federal takeover of our hardworking communities. They are literally arresting children and parents as well as workers who fuel our economy. They are liars and our Governor and AG must stand up for us.

“The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil. When truth leaves us, when we let it slip away, when it’s ripped from our hands, we become vulnerable to the appetite of whatever monster screams the loudest.”

We've had a lot of recessions, but this is the first one that is completely unforced and entirely owed to just one person. What part of Trump promising "lower prices on day one" meant a market crash, economic recession, and surging prices?

The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025.

This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.

Wow. 20+ DOGE staffers just resigned en masse, saying they refuse to use their expertise to “dismantle critical public services.”

“We swore to serve the American people... However, it has become clear that we can no longer honor those commitments.”

Obviously the Giants should feel extremely stupid about Saquon but the entire Saquon Eagles experience shows how the right situation can supercharge talent exponentially. He never could’ve been this good in New York because the Giants are not good enough for him to be this good

A reminder that next week's Bills-Ravens game will not "prove" who should win MVP any more than Week 4's 35-10 Ravens win over the Bills proves who should win MVP.

Today is January 6th and no one is watching the Capitol be plundered, feces being smeared on the walls, and police officers being stabbed with American flags.

Why? Because one side believes in democracy no matter what, and the other side only believes in it only when they win.

Saquon Barkley gets congrats from his teammates after going over 2000 yards.

they should give josh allen and lamar jackson co-MVP awards like peyton manning and steve mcnair that one year. guaranteed to make no one happy, the ideal result for me

I recommend no fewer than 4 copies of any beloved book. A paperback for traveling and lending to friends, an eBook for reading with greasy snack fingers, an audio book so you know how the characters' names are actually pronounced, and a pristine hardcover to be buried with you like a pharaoh

One stat that really blew me away about the Dolphins' offense since Tua's return:

Miami owns the lowest 3-and-out percentage in the NFL since Week 8, at 2.9% of their drives

In *35* drives since Tua's return, they've recorded *one* 3-and-out

The "bluesky is an echo chamber" think pieces that keep popping up really tickle me because they show how certain people genuinely believe social media should be for debating and arguing and not talking about the things that make you happy and sharing art with the world.
