Old Soviet joke:

Why do ICE agents travel in groups of three?

One can read, one can write, and the third keeps an eye on the two intellectuals
New ICE recruiting methods have resulted in half of this group of absolute winners failing AN OPEN BOOK TEST
These are my perspiration trousers
Dave Martinez postgame presser-ass answer from Keefe.

“The boys didn’t come ready to play. Whose fault is that? Damned if I know.”
Brian Keefe said the Wiz didn't play with enough force to start the game. I asked what led to that.

"Who knows? I don't know the answer to that. ... We made a mindset shift at the half and we saw what we're capable of doing but ... we gotta do that the whole game

So far radio silence from @whitehousehistory.bsky.social on the destruction of the East Wing. Can't imagine its founder Jackie Kennedy would be too pleased.
Looking forward to Common Defense and the PSA guys pointing out that many veterans use anti-gay slurs on Reddit and it’s wrong to single out Platner.
SCOOP: Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner apologized for homophobic language and antigay slurs he admitted to writing on Reddit in an interview with me this afternoon, after I confronted him on comments I discovered from as recently as 2021.

Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner admits using ‘indefensible’ antigay slurs in unearthed Reddit posts
"Today I find that stuff abhorrent," Platner told The Advocate. "And I am sorry that I ever used it.”

Honestly should move the team back to Baltimore and start fresh
Having the best lottery odds and ending up with the 6th pick - a tradition unlike any other.
I’m not saying anyone should do it, but I would watch a documentary about this man being hunted through a dark forest entitled “We’re Up All Night to Get Luckey”.
oh of COURSE Palmer Luckey is desperately attempting to bring back the Eternally Moist Soul Patch

Back to back threes for Tre Johnson, assisted by Cam Whitmore.

That second play in particular was a really nice pass by Whitmore.

U-Va. excluded Black people until the 1950s, and kept numbers low for years after. If it wanted to correct for decades of policy by recruiting a student body that looked more like the state, _that was a logical remedy_.

Black people's 'spots' were stolen for decades. Fixing that ≠ discrimination.
I'm serious re: the _personal_ offense I take to this.

I went to U-Va. on a merit scholarship for high-achieving, heavily recruited Black students. I worked my ass off, racked up AP credits, and devoted evenings + weekends to extracurriculars to get in.

Whose fucking spot did I "take"? Whose?
absolutely shameful that the university has embraced the administration’s demand that it discriminate against its students. this is the board of visitors telling UVA students that if they aren’t white and cisgendered then they don’t belong.
I’m addition to the White House they’ve also demolished their website and the LinkedIn pages of their President and Chairman.

Doesn’t seem like the kind of thing you’d do if you were proud of being awarded one of the most historically significant projects in America.

The election Nazi tattoo guy wants to run in isn't until November 2026, maybe people defending him including but not limited to Bernie fucking Sanders could devote their time to finding a candidate without a Nazi tattoo. That they kept for 20 years knowing it was a Nazi tattoo.

The University of Virginia has capitulated to Trump on transgender and race (affirmative action) issues.

The details are currently sparse, but reporting suggests they've agreed to define trans people out of existence and ban trans students from facilities.

For local folks, the phone number for ACECO - the contractor currently demolishing the East Wing of the White House - is 301-588-0707.
BREAKING: The entire East Wing of the White House will be demolished “within days,” according to two Trump administration officials, a significant expansion of President Trump's original stated plan.

i hope that a governor spanberger and a democratic general assembly uses its authority to discipline the university for its capitulation and to remove these BOV members who have decided that they work for donald trump and not the people of the commonwealth

Many people are saying the Republicans shut down the government to bulldoze the White House without permission and build the Epstein ballroom.
