I'm sorry, is the Trump Administration talking to a tech platform?

Is it...requesting content moderation?

Today following outreach from @thejusticedept, Facebook removed a large group page that was being used to dox and target @ICEgov agents in Chicago.
The wave of violence against ICE has been driven by online apps and social media campaigns designed to put ICE officers at risk just for doing their jobs. The Department of Justice will continue engaging tech companies to eliminate platforms where radicals can incite imminent violence against federal law enforcement.

To me the funniest thing in the NFL right now is that the Steelers (4-1) are finally favored over the Ravens (1-5) to win the AFC North, but the margin is so small that it's basically like they're 1.5-point favorites in a head-to-head

The AFC is a mess this season lol. Colts and Steelers duking it out for the 1 seed lmao

don't make it your whole personality but the thing you're supposed to like is sometimes definitely not something you're ever, ever going to like, even if it's well-constructed and diligently executed

Which makes the folks complaining about how it would be easier to simply take down capitalism rather than do this protest even funnier

Sean Duffy: "The No Kings protest, Maria, really frustrating. This is part of antifa, paid protesters. It begs the question who's funding it."

Trying to think who the funniest possible hire at Penn State would be and my heart says Pat Narduzzi.

How does Penn State get out from under James Franklin's buyout? It's an annual payout as opposed to a lump sum. That's really important to note. Makes it about $8mil/year which is much more manageable than the total that's close to $50 million.

Even by college football's ridiculous standards, "Guy who had the No. 3 team in the country 15 days ago gets fired" is pretty mind-blowing.

whole thing is even worse than the headline when you think about what 'play' means here

Avery Johnson did something in week three that was directly Mahomes inspired from like that same week of games and it was an abomination

I’m reminded of how Patrick Mahomes has inspired college QBs to do some of the stupidest shit I have ever seen in my life

Alex Kirshner @alexkirshner.com · 2d

These mass plays at the goal line are terrible. The Eagles have been a bad influence, and also they're false-starting or someone is offside on every play. The 10 minutes we just spent doing nothing at Auburn-Georgia have sold me that the NFL should ban the Tush Push
