It is WILD to read that all. WBB because their coach is woke. Lax because they are rich bros who are entitled. Football because it is football. Proskauer actually wrote that!

I live in Minnesota and I want the federal government to stop trying to kill us. And hurt us. I want them to stop attacking us.

It sucks.

We’re just trying to live our lives and take care of each other and we don’t deserve all this.

I kid around sometimes here but I’m not kidding now.

The Supreme Court's tariff decision means the government may have to pay corporations $175 BILLION in refunds.

Corporations raised prices and passed those costs off to you.

Your family likely paid $1,700 in tariff fees last year.

And corporations are getting the refund.

Scam.

Epstein Files Are Missing Records About Woman Who Made Claim Against Trump

NYT confirms MS NOW:

The Epstein files released by the Trump Justice Department failed to include some key materials — FBI memos summarizing interviews — related to a woman who said she had been sexually assaulted by both Trump and Epstein decades earlier, when she was a minor.

5 women, one women's team, and one mixed team have won Olympic gold medals for Team USA at these Olympics. Meanwhile, just one individual male athlete and no men's teams have won gold medals for Team USA

Makes you wonder: when will America start investing in men's sports

Yeah, and I’m sure you’ve seen it. Seems like the public attitudes of Don specifically are shifting towards the negative. Might just be time to move on. Hopeful that someone takes the spot though, not many places right on the river like Waterfront.

Pretty much all Weber-owned entities are going away. Schubys a year or two ago, Charmont sells ownership. Waterfront is a bit of a surprise, but there were signs. Don's seemingly mental deterioration and his children not wanting to take over (or so people keep saying) seem to be the case.

The IOC has banned the courageous & principled Ukrainian Olympian Vladyslav Heraskevych for his “helmet of memory” commemorating Ukraine’s war dead.

Meanwhile the IOC is selling a $42 "Heritage T-shirt" commemorating the 1936 Olympics, known as the Nazi Games. shop3.olympics.com/en/olympic-g...

A screenshot of People Over Papers’ ICE reporting map. The map resets at 4 am ET every day. In Minnesota, over 100 reports have been filed today, with the overwhelming majority in and around the Twin Cities. 

Stay safe. Fuck ICE.

Still around 100 community reports of ICE activity around the Twin Cities today, the most of any state by far.

In case you’re wondering why so many of us aren’t quite taking Homan’s presser today at face value.

THEY ARE BUYING UP WAREHOUSES TO HOLD HUMAN BEINGS IN DETENTION INDEFINITELY.

I feel crazy at how everyone is acting like this is normal. These are concentration camps being built right before our eyes. These buildings are not meant to house human beings. People will be caged like cattle and die.

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

Hating the Game The cooperation game, the murder game, and acting in good faith with people you know are acting in bad faith.

Today I wrote about the racist accommodation to the racist response to Bad Bunny's Super Bowl show; the moral hazard of extending good faith to those who act in bad faith; and how alienating white bigots is actually part of the solution, not a part of the problem. www.the-reframe.com/hating-the-g...

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

The President shit himself on live TV. Melania bombed. The Epstein files are sending shockwaves through the Alt Right. Liam and his dad are back home. A Texas district that was DEEP red for 35 years flipped blue. Pretti's killers have been identified.

Small wins, but you can feel the change coming.

A cabal of pedophiles conspired to destroy the US government from within by seeding fascist ideas into online forums, spreading conspiracy theories about the opposition based on their own actions, and devised an alternative currency to upend the global economy. Now they run the US government and CBS

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

we ended early because ICE tried to arrest his mom.
