✍️ COLUMN: The Michigan-WMU controversy cannot be allowed to happen again. It should've been avoided. Every game needs live replay look-in. Conferences have been too slow in adopting it. The integrity of the entire process is on the line. Free to read: www.nytimes.com/athletic/757...

It would be less frustrating and absolutely no less infuriating if everyone just admitted they gave Michigan an extra try because Michigan losing in the first week is “bad for college football”

That pro-Notre Dame call by ACC refs—Notre Dame is in the ACC for most sports—is the reason folks think college football is rigged and becoming meaningless. Western Michigan got robbed. Wisconsin got robbed. The higher-ranked team always gets the call. I can't take much more.

Seneca Nation Calls Trump’s Lake Ontario Rename a Treaty Violation northeasttimes.com/2026/08/31/s...

Spending the morning scrolling through my album of Michigan stadium clock operators posing with European leaders

www.politico.com/news/2026/09... What about the dozen other catastrophic decisions the Republican Party has made ? How about the lies and cover ups ? The forever gone house and senate ? List goes on. War today not tomorrow.. excuse. You blew America’s money.

Diesel prices have hit the highest levels ever because of the Iran War. Zach Nunn voted 5 times to continue the war with no oversight, saying it's "worth it" and calling rising prices "over-hyped." Iowans need a Representative who will work to lower costs, not raise them.

Someone bought 3000 oil contracts yesterday at market close for $275m. Today we hit 3 Iranian oil tankers and Iran has hit 11 ships. This is mind blowing levels of criminal corruption. When the markets open on Monday, that individual will have made hundreds of millions on a rigged bet.

Dear Trumpy.. Good Job Fat Boy. Yep, almost under $2.00..

Zelenskyy is facing growing domestic political weakness and an undercurrent of discontent. Combined with the demands of winter, Trump & Putin may be betting that these strains will produce a more politically vulnerable Ukrainian government willing to accept concessions harmful to Ukraine.

🇺🇸Former CIA Director Petraeus on Ukraine: The casualties the Russians are sustaining are just, I don’t think, sustainable. Over 1,000 killed and wounded per day. The Russians have now sustained well over 1.4 million killed and wounded, which is more than the U.S. sustained in all of World War II.

Putin confirms Ukraine asked for a temporary ceasefire and that it was denied, as reported by Ukraine, Russia only agreed to a temporary ceasefire on strikes in Kyiv & Moscow to protect Witkoff and Kushner, Russian strikes anywhere else, especially on innocent people are still happening.

⚡️ RUSSIA'S WAR AGAINST UKRAINE — SEP 5, 2026 (#1) ■ Increased engagements, but fewer casualties and equipment losses ■ Overnight attacks included missiles; 77% drone interception rate; 24 locations hit or affected by debris ■ ... 📈 See dashboard for full data: datastudio.google.com/s/qXdPEbYneQo

🤬A russian drone was literally HUNTING a teenager in Kherson, Ukraine. A child running for his life while the drone follows him. His fate is still unknown. This isn’t war. This is terrorism - and the whole world needs to see what russia is doing to Ukrainian children.

Just saw a video of an ICE arrest where they pulled a mom out of a car while her 3 year old was holding on to her, and they hurt the child's arm. When the kid ran away, the agent picked her up and threw her in the car. I can't say what I want for these fuckers, but jail is not gonna be enough.

On September 8, the Court will hear Santa Clara County's case against DHS to stop the construction of an ICE processing center in Gilroy. There will be a press conference and rally outside the courthouse. Let's mobilize and support our attorneys to say ICE Out of Gilroy and ICE OUT OF EVERYWHERE!

Voting Rights Groups Are Preparing to Confront ICE at the Polls Trusted figures such as firefighters and clergy will protect Black, Latino, and Asian precincts that could be targets.

The kids are alright 👍

Like almost all journos, I don't like it when Washington attacks us for what we write, tries to get us to reveal souces, etc., all of which has steadily worsened over the years. But this stuff--targeting ordinary people for writing angry letters or posts--is much, much more pernicious. (gift link)

multiple news outlets like @forbes.com @apnews.com @axios.com are claiming that a "newly authorized" tanker-for-tanker "policy" is "permitting" Krasnov and Bibi to bomb the crap out of Iranian ships meanwhile, the unmitigated sh**show doesn't even have congressional approval.

This sends a chilling message to prosecutors while green lighting abuses from ICE. Story: buff.ly/ExW2pQB

Sean Moorman's fed lawsuit, filed by the ACLU of OH, says officers of ICE violated his 1st Amendment right to act as an ICE observer Moorman,a 41-yr-old electrical engineer, has been the target of "flagrant & escalating" ICE harassment since he began volunteering as an ICE obs on Aug. 19th per suit

Hundreds More Flock Cameras Removed in the US This Week. Flock Caught Repackaging Traffic Data https://yro.slashdot.org/story/26/09/05/0637208/hundreds-more-flock-cameras-removed-in-the-us-this-week-flock-caught-repackaging-traffic-data?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed

It now costs $200 to obtain data on Flock camera logs in my city. Someone recently paid it, and there’s over 130,000 pages worth of outside agency searches from the last month alone. I wonder how many were watching the camera that got moved to record directly into a woman’s bedroom window..

“worst case scenario for Canada is that we spend the next few months…painfully renegotiating the terms of trade in autos, steel, dairy and fish, but end up locking in American Big Tech’s structural advantage.” Canadians will have to ditch Zoom, Google, etc like did 🇺🇸booze since Carney won’t #cdnpoli

It is strange that some people genuinely believe the answer to AI problems is more AI. More AI doesn't fix emissions, the impact of layoffs, or the fact that bigger models don't produce better answers. #AI

The Trumpified ‘MAGApalooza’ Midterms Convention next week is going to be a complete disaster. Most Rs in competitive districts don’t want to be near Trump or Vance right now, the concept was moronic, and it’s at the same time at the two primetime opening nights of the NFL.

I've been thinking about this but he said it better. "Traveling with Natalie." The sound of that phrase. How much work it did.

If Ossoff had said "Natalie Harp" not many people would've noticed. Some politics name. Hear those all the time. Who cares. But saying just "Natalie" makes it sound like gossip you should hurry to decode so you can explain it to your friends. My senator is using the power of lore dumping

New in PN: “Travel with Natalie” "The questions now swirling around Trump’s personal assistant Natalie Harp — especially the way Jon Ossoff unleashed a firestorm by invoking her name — offer a long overdue lesson for Dems on how to successfully bait Trump and his MAGA cohorts for maximum effect."

Republicans *should* panic. They chose to back an insidious, destructive, invading force against the local communities they've been lying about serving, and they're going to pay a huge political price for it. Pointing at a few trans people here and there won't fix this mistake.

The same people who were paid to lie about climate change by fossil fuel companies are now lying about data centers. Don't buy the hype. Consider the dangers. They are real and the more Republicans and oligarchs push them the more concerned you should become. Fight for your families and communities.
