This @today.yougov.com poll is why I'm going to become the Joker.

My dog you took Brad Davis to that World Cup
"I never had a problem with Landon. Until I told him he's not going to Brazil. It was a purely footballing decision. We felt, all the coaches, his time was kind of over and more talent was there, and better players were going to Brazil."

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium.
ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

Yeah my job is pretty cool. My uniform is a tactical vest that’s two sizes too small and a gaiter I bought in a gas station. They send me to sneak into schools to kidnap little kids because people got mad about having to press 1 for English. The president had to warn everyone to stop spitting on me.

just absolutely insane that this is what Trump accused Biden of doing, and now he's done it himself.
Congratulations, North Carolina. You’re on your own and your FEMA request is “not warranted.”

Joey Saputo is a stain on MLS.
CF Montréal have fired manager Laurent Courtois.
Courtois was at the beginning of his second year with the team. He led the team to the wild card game last year.

The Republican Party is more or less built on reactionary opposition to the Democrats policies rather than their own actual policy ideas, and unfortunately the Democrats’ most recent policy was “having a strong economy”
The funniest thing about all this is Joe Biden built a "bring back US manufacturing" button and Trump could have just kept pressing it but instead he insisted on smashing the "crash the stock market" button
