honestly one of the most humiliating decisions in professional sports history and proof that there are no adults left in the room trying to advocate for the League, just a bunch of billionaires trying to shake every last quarter out of their piggy banks
Amidst Julie K. Brown's investigation, Jeffrey Epstein warned his legal "dream team":
"She is going to start trouble."
@jkbjournalist sat down with @PabloTorre to shed light on Epstein's secret deal and how prosecutors "just wanted this case to go away"
We did it, Montana.
I couldn’t have done it without each of you who gave your time, talked to neighbors, and pitched in. What we built belongs to all of us. This is about the fight for working Montanans and now we take it on to November.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
BRUTAL indictment of @bariweiss by Scott Pelley:
"For my part, new management has instructed me to inject falsehoods and bias into a politically sensitive story. I’ve been told to include assertions that are unverified." Then it gets worse...
New statement from Scott Pelley:
There has never been anything in America like 60 Minutes.
The Sunday tradition is the most successful program of any kind in history. For more than a decade, its innovative growth on every major online platform has extended its reach to countless millions around the world. This spring, at the end of our 58thseason, 60 Minutes grew rapidly with an unheard-of 9% jump in viewers on CBS.
“60” has been the number-one program in America for decades because our beloved audience finds integrity, quality, and humanity in our stories. When stewardship of the program passed to my colleagues and me, our responsibility was to expand energetically into a new age of media technology while preserving the values our audience expects. Now, the new owner of our network is casting this legend aside, apparently to curry a moment of favor with the Trump administration.
The waste is heartbreaking.
Last month, 60 Minutes lost its DNA when our entire senior leadership and two of our best on-air correspondents were cruelly fired without cause. Good people were silenced because they stood up for our audience. They stood for fairness against the forces of political bias; they stood for professionalism against chaos.
For my part, new management has instructed me to inject falsehoods and bias into a politically sensitive story. I’ve been told to include assertions that are unverified. To date, in every case, I have managed to ignore these instructions or refuse them. Recently, politicians have been invited to choose correspondents for interviews on the broadcast. Giving politicians control over 60 Minutes interviews is not how this is done. Finally, incompetence and unprofessionalism in the new management have wreaked havoc. In a case involving one of my stories, the entire program came within 19 minutes of not getting on the air at all.
At 60 Minutes, we have fought harder than anyone knows to save the program that became an American icon. We owed that to our millions of viewers. I am deeply moved by the thousands of wishes we have received to “keep up the good fight.” Most of the men and women of CBS News are still in that fight. But now the collapse of values at the top has become untenable. The leadership of 60 Minutes is no longer recognizable. The principles I hold dear are gone, and so I must leave as well.
I depart after 37 years at CBS with one emotion—a heart brimming with gratitude for the men and women of CBS News who encouraged and enriched my work, very often at the risk of their own lives. I pray for a day when those people and their ideals are honored again—a day when sanity, competence, and courage return.

If you’re a NASCAR under the age of 47, you’ll be watching your first ever Cup race today without a Busch or an Earnhardt in it.
The 2026 Coca-Cola 600 will be the first NASCAR Cup Series race without an Earnhardt or Busch in the field since 1979.
"He taught me to trust myself and trust in what I feel and what I believe and push for more."
@BubbaWallace shared the lasting impact Kyle Busch has had on him with @MartySmithESPN ahead of the Coca-Cola 600.
In Jan. of '22, a NorthWestern customer on 750kw of power paid $88.21. In May '26, that's $124.34 (a rise of 40.9%)
At Missoula meeting, groups raise alarm over data centers: https://t.co/U1kFwHrxej
Richard Childress Racing has elected to suspend use of the No. 8 and will run the No. 33 at Charlotte Motor Speedway and beyond. Kyle Busch was instrumental in the design of RCR’s stylized No. 8 and it has become synonymous with Kyle and an important symbol for his fans and the NASCAR industry. No one can carry it forward to the level that he did. The No. 8 is reserved and ready for Brexton Busch when he is ready to go NASCAR racing.
Filed to ESPN: Whether you needed a racer, a throwback to a simpler time, or even a role model of how to grow from kid lightning rod to grown family man, Kyle Busch was the one we looked to.

I am so rocked by this Kyle Busch thing man. This is so sad. What a tragic loss. A legend and truly one of the great characters in motorsports. He always had people talking. RIP Rowdy. Feel for his family that he always showed such incredible love for.
