An impromptu stop at Real Union today — the historic Spanish club owned by Unai Emery and his family. Gracious to Igor Emery for taking the time to let us on the grounds and to speak to us about the team. Beautiful backdrop for a stadium in the Basque Country.

Can confirm. Cars scattered like a football tailgate on the stones that cover what was once a city reservoir.
Foley Square Park, outside of the Manhattan federal courthouse, is packed with news crews this morning ahead of Judge Dale Ho's hearing on the Trump Justice Department's efforts to have SDNY's Eric Adams bribery indictment tossed out.

Not your imagination: fewer food vendor carts are on the streets because vendors are staying home to avoid receiving NYPD tickets that could get them deported. @haidee.bsky.social reports from a very full Manhattan garage.
Migrant Vendors Park Carts as Their American Dreams Slip Away

This looks to be the story Penny's team referenced. It's an AI-written article by "The Pinnacle Gazette," a site run by a popular Turkish science company.
The jury is anonymous, but "Martin Beck" is not one of their names, according to Penny's lawyers.
