This Black MAGA creator says she “cannot believe the disrespect” after being removed from a San Antonio rally hosted by Republican Senate candidate Ken Paxton!?!?! Why would they treat her this way???

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

Donald Trump: great ship the Titanic. GREAT ship. Real sad what happened to it. I was on it you know. Leonardo Di Caprio threw me in the water and lifted me onto a door himself and that’s not easy, I’m a big guy. He drew me nude you know. Talented artist…

As a former professional athlete, this is one of the stupidest things I’ve ever heard. Your kid has a less than 1% chance of getting an athletic college scholarship. You’re better off putting the money into a 529 plan.

Gluesenkamp Perez: "At town halls, what I saw was the people who were the most upset had spent the last 12 years driving their girls to sports practice & they view their best shot of their student going to college as an athletic scholarship. So when we rush to moralize we miss some of the nuance."

Counting to a million, if you count one number per second nonstop, would take you just under 12 days. Counting to a billion would take you about 31 years. Counting to a trillion would take you 31,709 years. You would have had to have started counting DURING THE UPPER PALAEOLITHIC ERA.

Quote post reply …What would the ALT text on your profile photo be if ALT text were allowed? Mine: “I’m standing in front of NY Public Library on West 100th St. It is a sunny day.”

I share this warning most years. I just want young journalists to know. On April 1st some PRs publish ‘hilarious’ press releases. In my first year of journalism no one told me there was this magical day where they simply lie. And that is how I came to write an article about condoms for dogs.

Henry showing what it means to be a human being with empathy. Privileged to be spending a week in Fiji at the moment and seeing the benefits of community. Supporting each other is so important. Bula Vinaka

[Golazo] A really honest and vulnerable moment moment between Henry and Micah Recommend watching the full segment. Puts some perspective on what life could be like for some players post-retirement.

Not that I want him to, but did Rob Edwards get a yellow card there? Or is that just for Everton managers? He’s over the moon and you want to see your managers get excited, nice tonking of the spare ball there too!!

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

Don’t even bother pressing the ‘post’ button if this is the quality of report coming out. What’s the point, just leave the original minute by minute text update in place.

Jeff Veillette@jeffveillette.bsky.social

Truly atrocious piece, too. Screencapping so you don't have to give them the traffic. Literally just an emotionless, robotic summary of the game sheet, with a note telling us that they couldn't even bother getting an editor to skim it The race to the bottom is such garbage
