Would be nice if local law enforcement stood up and faint heartedly claimed “jurisdiction” to do the right thing, rather than participate in hero worship.

Shanahan announces that Warner suffered a dislocated ankle and probably broke it, too. He's out for the year.

Also said that Warner was in the locker room after the game, spoke to the team and helped break down the postgame huddle.

49ers fall to 4-2 and likely have lost Warner for the season after already losing Bosa.

The season isn't over. They could still make the playoffs. You don't throw away seasons in October--and they don't want to duplicate last year's collapse.

But things are altered now.

Later on in the video, Vance lies and says they have to do mass firings to preserve resources to use in other parts of the govt.

This is not how it works. The people fired didn’t have any funding, so firing them doesn’t free up any money.

They fired people because they want to and lied about it.

BRENNAN: CBS confirmed the Trump administration rescinded the layoffs of CDC scientists. Some were involved with the federal measles response. How does a mistake like this happen?

VANCE: The govt shutdown inevitably leads to some chaos. It happened because of Schumer

B: But this was a WH decision

seems like a non-insignificant percentage of rage against the machine's fanbase are young republican men driving SUVs bopping their head to anti-oil, pro-immigrant songs thinking the lyrics are about how they wish their suburban parents would get off their back

Tom Morello tweets: "Fascinating that all those “don’t tread on me” posers and their AR-15’s are nowhere to be seen and government tyranny is instead being opposed by a guy in an inflatable frog suit."

Someone named Manny replies: "@grok
why do some people say Tom Morello and band mates are RAGE FOR THE MACHINE and not against ?"

We’ve gone from just asking questions, to just having opinions, to be followed by just testing the levers of government.

WELKER: Is the DOJ acting on orders from the president to prosecute his political opponents?

JD VANCE: No ... You know who we haven't prosecuted? Joe Biden, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton ... he's allowed to have opinions about law enforcement

Stop saying extraneous on Fox! Just say central issue. It’s word capital w/this audience. In place, use a word that resonates!

Jeffries on Fox News Sunday: "My friends on other aisle seem to think believe healthcare is an extraneous issue. We don't believe it's an extraneous issue. It's a central issue...the states most affected are all ones Trump won...so this is not a partisan fight. We're fighting for everyday Americans"

“Who was president in 2020?” remains one of the most pertinent questions in American politics—absurd, yes, but here we are—and that extends to “who was president January 1 - 19, 2021?”

Joyce White Vance @joycewhitevance.bsky.social · 3d

That’s a nice trick, since Biden wasn’t the president on Jan 6.

Trump said he deserved a cut for brokering the TikTok deal, and at once there was agreement that his son Baron would have a top executive slot... though he hasn't asked for it, and has no apparent qualifications to hold it. This is how Trump 2.0 works. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...

Do the 49ers lose giving up the TD late, missing a FG or turning it over on a final drive?
