DXTraeger BLUE CHECKMARK EDITION*

Irreverent, irrelevant, & iridescent humor. Noted feminist. Also a lot of alliteration. Should stick to sports.

The fact that the car couldn't enter the cemetery because it was hallowed ground is such a brilliant detail.

I spoke to my old friend Mitch McConnell this morning, the senior Senator from Kentucky. He’s still recovering in the hospital. We talked for just shy of 45 minutes. He's so sharp. Just like always he let me do all of the talking. He's a great listener. After that we prayed silently for awhile and had a staring contest. Just like always, he beat me. I told him we want to see him back at work as soon as possible.

For 90% of the game, Haaland just lurks around. He hardly even pays attention to the ball.

But then - out of a sudden - at the exact right moment, he awakens, scores a historic goal, and immediately goes back to lurking around.

He cannot be replicated.

Assuming there’s some sort of FIFA corruption going on to allow Folarin Balogun to play tomorrow shows #USMNT is finally a proper club.

NEW: Sharyn Alfonsi goes scorched earth on Bari Weiss:

"Over the weekend, my contract with CBS News expired, drawing to a close nearly twenty years with the network, including more than a decade at 60 Minutes.

Following an intense editorial dispute over our CECOT story, repeated attempts by my representation to establish a path forward were met with absolute silence from network executives. The message could not be clearer: my time at 60 Minutes is apparently over.

In the coming days, network leadership may attempt to hide behind corporate euphemisms like "modernization" and “restructuring” to explain away my departure. Don't be misled. This was not a routine corporate transition; it was a deliberate choice to penalize a journalist for refusing to sanitize factually accurate reporting, and it sends a chilling message to the entire newsroom.

Fearless, independent reporting has always been the defining standard at 60 Minutes. Today, CBS management is abandoning that mission, choosing access journalism over accountability and protecting power rather than scrutinizing it.

The wall between editorial independence and corporate interest at CBS is being methodically torn down. Journalists willing to challenge authority are being pushed aside in favor of those who will not. If this continues, the result will be a broadcast that looks like 60 Minutes but lacks the courage and character to produce journalism that matters.

To my colleagues, who became family - working beside you has been the privilege of a lifetime. You are second to none. I’ve learned exactly what it costs to hold the line right now. Hold it anyway. Viewers and the people who trust us with their stories deserve nothing less."

I am thrilled that DOJ is indicting Raul Castro. Fidel was such a sleazeball dictator that he made it illegal for the Cuban government to audit him or his family.
