Hard not to question whether KOC even cares about Wentz’s health. Baffling decision so stick with him while the world watches him agonize in pain every series. I lost a lot of respect for KOC tonight. #vikings

Wentz is hurt. It’s 34-10. Still KOC sticks with him. Hard to not question if KOC even cares about his health. Baffling decision to stay with him at this point.

34-10. Still Wentz. I have to question if KOC even cares about his health.

O’Connell being willing to die on the hill of Wentz at this point is criminal. The guy can’t hardly lift his arm, looks lost on the field, and the team is in a spiral. It’s embarrassing. #vikings

Nice to see Wentz thinks this is all funny.

#vikings need to make some kind of change. This team is in a tailspin. Offense looks lost. Defense looks defeated because of it. Wentz is playing with a huge brace, but McCarthy just continues to be coddled. How many seasons are we willing to sacrifice to find out if he can make it in the NFL?

Charlatan Jones @charlatanjones.bsky.social · 4d

If this team isn’t a playoff team they NEED to come out of the season with some idea of what McCarthy’s ceiling is or what type of player he’s becoming. If they miss the playoffs and don’t learn anything about McCarthy, that’s the worst case scenario for the Vikes.

The entire incident is infuriating and terrifying. She’s a Latina woman who was working a service job. On her way home late at night, with her headphones in, she was detained for an hour by masked federal agents who wouldn’t give her their names.

Maria Greeley, 44, had just finished working a double shift at the Beach Bar on Ohio Street
earlier this month when she said she was surrounded by three federal agents who grabbed her, forced her hands behind her back and zip tied her.
Headphones in, Greeley had been focused on getting home to her two dogs for a walk.
Instead, she said she was detained by masked agents who did not answer when she asked for names. They questioned her for an hour, she said.

It is a disgrace that Fox continues to put them on constantly day after day to spew their propaganda to their friends when Hegseth & Wilson are afraid to face real press and are obviously in the process of covering a lot up that they don’t want the American people to know.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

Athens fell into decline and disrepair after its defeat in the Peloponnesian War (431–404 BC), which involved economic collapse, plagues that killed a third of its population, political instability including failed democracy and oligarchy rule, and constant warfare.

This world has no heroes right now. It’s heartbreaking to live in such an uninspired time. It feels flat. Empty. Cold. Cloudy. I feel it in my heart, like a wound.

We are bereft of trust, have misplaced our goodwill, and can no longer recognize love.

My bones are so sad for what we’ve become.

If Warren Buffett or other “Patriotic Millionaires” were as compassionately minded as they want everyone to believe could easily fund PBS themselves. They don’t, though.

The thing is, as much as they want to immortalize Charlie Kirk to justify and escalate their platform of hate, they’ll forget about him in a month and move onto something else.

Hate is a fire.

It has no memory.

It doesn’t need a reason.

It just needs to burn.

I’m tired of the double standard where people on the right say almost nothing and do even less whenever children or leftie political leaders are murdered, yet every progressive is expected to climb the nearest mountain to shout a denunciation of violence when a hate monger is the victim.
