He is the President and he has been breaking the law with impunity, over and over and then flaunting it in public. The Supreme Court has said the only way to punish him is impeachment. Not impeaching sends the message that any president anytime in the future can do whatever the fuck they want.
They already did that twice and removal or revolution still didn't occur. By all means, say it's the principle of the thing and hell, I'll even agree with you, but that's all it is. Some GOP senators genuinely agree with him and some just think he'll kill them if they impeach but same result.
BREAKING: Game 6 of the WNBA Finals will be held Thursday at 12:30pm ET at Atlanta’s State Farm Arena, sources told ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne. It will be a double-header with the Atlanta Hawks’ game, which will be moved to 8pm.
70 percent of the internet was vulnerable yesterday to very bad security flaws inside a coding language. Turns out, *one volunteer* is mostly responsible for maintaining that code & helping push updates. Yesterday Ondřej Surý saved the internet. So I called him up www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...
Do you know how fecal you hae to be to use for political gain a daughter's evidenced sexual abuse by her stepfather and subsequent estrangment from a mother who took her husband's side and lost custody of both her kids as a result?
We do now. Come on down, Vivek, you utter piece of shit.
Vivek Ramaswamy has not only confirmed the commercial with Amy Acton's estranged mother was made by his campaign, Axios also reports he's now spending $4 million to air it.
@baumann.bsky.social Thanks to your experiment last year, I, a miserable Phillies fan, spent time following the White Sox. This was clearly time well spent as now I can shrug off the impending Phillies debacle and root hard for the South Siders!
Two of Hollywood’s oldest and greatest companies (and the jobs of tens of thousands of people who work for them) are now completely dependent on the personal stock holdings of one guy who has made an enormous bet on AI data centers. What could go wrong?
“Oracle officers and directors are forbidden from pledging company shares as collateral for personal loans, with one exception, Larry Ellison…
The total stock pledged now represents about 36% of Ellison’s total holdings of 1.16 billion shares.”
By the time this merger ruins HBO, destroys WB, gets 5,000 people fired, moves production overseas, and guts the quality of the movies the new studio makes, most people will have forgotten how fast the AGs caved and how little they got in this deal. Writers will not.
Buying a classic Hollywood Studio and threatening to move it out of Hollywood. Unconscionable. Blackmail. Petulant. Shitty. This has to be stopped. deadline.com/2026/09/para...
@natetice.bsky.social Can you do a deep dive on the mess that is the Eagles O-line? They look like they have no idea what they're doing and haven't been in sync with Jalen OR Saquon all game. Is it the new scheme? Are they slowing down/aging? Is DC doing really well? This is awful to watch.
@baumann.bsky.social Loved the Stott piece. My favorite Phillie, he's a "pest" in the best way. And if he walks will probably light it up somewhere else, free of the morons who've been managing him the last 3 years.

Separate q: over the last 4 years are the phillies the worst baserunning & worst fielding team of the annual "contenders?" They have to be, right?
Arte Moreno bought the Angels in 2003 (the year after they won the Series) for $184 million. He then spent 23 years running them into the ground, let the stadium decay, wasted Trout and Ohtani, and sold for $4 billion. And the owners are crying poverty and threatening to kill baseball next year.
This morning, the Coldstream Guards at Buckingham Palace performed a tribute to Dolly Parton.
The last time I remember the guards at the palace honoring the memory of an American entertainer was when they paid tribute to Aretha Franklin after she passed away.
So much more than a Country Music Superstar.
Philanthropist, humanitarian, defender of diversity & fierce advocate for the working class, she helped fund the Moderna Covid vaccine & donated 332+ million books to children. Thank you, Dolly. We will always love you.♥️
#RIP
These right wing extremists are bullies, and they have consistently shown if you punch them in the face they will back down, but if you pretend they’re operating in good faith they will continue to steal your lunch money over and over and over and over and over and
“The WNBA will not institute a league-wide ban on Freedom, according to a source with knowledge of the decision.” They are trying to lose me and it’s going to work the way this is going.
You’ve got to understand the WNBA’s dilemma here: on one side are the hardcore, dedicated socially liberal fanbase who supported the league during the dark days when it was barely profitable and on the other side are the people who hate women and don’t think the WNBA should exist.
“The WNBA will not institute a league-wide ban on Freedom, according to a source with knowledge of the decision.” They are trying to lose me and it’s going to work the way this is going.
She wrote a handful of the greatest songs ever written, and the first thing so many people think of is not those towering achievements, but how good a person she was and how many people’s lives she improved
Dolly Parton, among a thousand other amazing things she did in her life, gifted over 330 million books to kids through her Imagination Library program. Her passing is a tremendous loss to the world, but you can support the program today to keep it going imaginationlibrary.com
Dolly was an exemplary human being in the public eye when it seems it is a race to grift or deceive for everyone else.
The book program was/is unbelievable and super important
As is the vaccine support
She used the power of celebrity to help others and that is sadly the actions of a dying breed
If her resumé ONLY included "Jolene," "9 to 5," her ongoing literacy project and "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," Dolly Parton would have — zero embellishment — one of the most significant cultural lives in American history. #RIP
"A market ceases to function when competition disappears. And it’s disappearing," contends writer Mike Schur in a guest column for The Hollywood Reporter
Another dildo thrown.
Albeit this one tossed himself on the court.
Do you know how big an asshole you have to be to think this is a worthy act of political dissent, or that others will come to see that your personal concerns about how other people live their lives should even matter? We do now.
Former NBA center Enes Kanter Freedom was ejected from Sunday night’s Indiana-Chicago WNBA game after he was confronted by Sky guard Natasha Cloud late in the third quarter. Freedom was sitting along the baseline. He had on a black shirt that read “WOMAN noun. adult human female.”
Enes Kanter just got in a yelling match with Natasha Cloud after he came onto the court and he's being ejected from the building. He had to be escorted out.
Loser behavior from a guy who’s clinging like a shriveled old barnacle to a sport he doesn’t actually care about in a desperate bid for relevance. Do not cede one inch to him or anyone who acts this way.
This is the difference between a winner and a loser.
“Yeah you wanna try? Go ahead and fucking try. I’m gonna kick your ass anyways, and if I lose, I’m coming back twice as hard. If you’re on my team, we’re gonna smoke em.”

“WAAAH WAAAAH WAAAAAH” <fifth place benchwarmer diarrhea noises>
Golden State Valkyries forward Gabby Williams: “There’s a lot of discourse around trans athletes and what they can compete in. I would welcome a trans athlete on my team or against my team. Anytime. I don’t think it’s a problem in the world, it’s just another way to kind of attack trans people.”
"These young girls that are sitting at games with anti-trans signs, do they understand actually what the real problems are and how they’re being marginalized? We’re still not in a space where we have equality."
FIFA loves to feed us idealistic slop about how The Power of Football can bring nations together, allowing us to look past politics and see each other as humans
and now they've got a World Cup whose host country is pretty clearly denying people from participating because of their nationality
