Imagine offering up this defense of the person who is leading our country. i can’t fathom the level of moral bankruptcy required to attempt to justify this behavior.

The solution to the male loneliness epidemic is attending a local Democratic Party canvassing event.
WOW. 81% of women 18-29 voted for Mamdani, 80% for Sherril, and 78% for Spanberger.

I've been the treasurer of a mainline protestant church in the past, and I can assure you we've been champing at the bit to make big IT investments. Blockchain, AI, all of it. We've got so much budget for this stuff.

The newspapers don't have investigative reporters on their sports desks any longer.
Most remaining websites have systematically hollowed out their reporting infrastructure.
The TV shows that did reporting have been canceled.
And whatever remains is in bed with the betting industry.

The most points in any quarter in a debut. Jake Layman with 17 in garbage time in 2016. LOL (since 1995-96 when we have pbp data)

V.J. Edgecombe's 14 points in the first quarter is the most points in the first quarter of a player's debut from at least 1996 on (as far back as our quarter scoring goes).
Lebron James was the previous most with 12.

6+3 thru 7 Milan matches. I stands by this take.
They should go get Pulisic for £35m. And he's actually played more than Eze the last two seasons.

please ask. ”senator your state went overwhelmingly for President Trump. He was clear about his plans. Why should the rest of the country have to support these rich farmers with more welfare? Can’t they pull themselves up out of this sutuation. you actively sought out these policies.”
WELKER: Why not ask the president to roll back some of his tariffs instead of supporting a taxpayer-funded bailout for farmers?
THUNE: I think the big issue with the tariffs is China
