The 22-year-old was adult enough to apologize, and yet, I remain concerned about the grown ass men in the room who laughed at an AI video of their colleague getting slapped and have yet to apologize.

[Shannon Watts @shannonrwatts]

Remember when men *on here* were telling women that we were overreacting about the U.S. men’s Olympic hockey team laughing at Trump’s joke about the women’s hockey team? This is why we’ll keep overreacting, thanks.

The “protect women’s sports” and “the AI meme of a college football coach punching a woman sports reporter was funny because she’s not conventionally attractive” Venn diagram is a circle

[unethical october baseball liz 🚨 @lizaboth]

A domestic abuser won the US Open, the GOAT of sideline reporters getting body shamed, and the Longhorns QB and nepo child of the most famous football family in America thinks memes of women getting slapped are funny. Really just a really hard day to be a woman who loves sports.

A Michigan Catholic deacon stands up for Muslims in Dearborn after a Christian nationalist rally called for their removal from the country:

“To the men and women protesting in the name of Jesus, hurling hate at our Muslim brothers and sisters — not in his name, and certainly not on my watch.

“I count many Muslims as my friends, my neighbors, my associates, and yes, my barber. Men and women of integrity, of family, and of faith. We may not be brothers in faith, but we are certainly and absolutely brothers and sisters in humanity.

“And freedom of religion is not a footnote to being an American. It is a cornerstone. The same First Amendment that protects my right to go to Mass protects your right to the mosque.

“It grieves me that in the name of Jesus, the Prince of Peace is being used as a weapon to spread fear, intolerance, and hate. That is not the gospel. That is not the cross. And that certainly is not of Christ.

“So let me be clear. In the name of Jesus Christ, I rebuke this spirit of hatred and division. Scripture does not leave us confused about this. We are called to rebuke evil, and tonight, this is evil — using the name of the Savior who dined with outcasts to cast out our neighbors, good people.*

“John tells us exactly how Christians should be known: by this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another — and your neighbor.

“He makes it even plainer: if anyone says “I love God” and hates his brother, he is a liar.

“So no. You do not speak for me. You do not speak for my church. And you do not speak for Christ when you chant hate at people of God, no matter the faith.

“To my Muslim friends in this room and in this city: you are welcome here. You belong here. Your freedom to worship is my freedom to worship, and I will stand for it because my faith demands it.

“We can disagree — and we probably will — on theology, and still defend each other’s dignity. That’s not weakness. That’s Christianity. That is American.”

Bottom line: The president should not be able to own and trade stocks. Or the vice president. Or members of Congress.

Took a video of this cool shell formation on my beach walk.

If all of you repost it as many times as you can maybe some journalists will see it and do something about it

[Sen. Elissa Slotkin @SenatorSlotkin]

The President of the United States is taking his threats against the Iranian people to new extremes. Targeting civilians en masse would be a clear violation of the law of armed conflict as laid out in the Geneva Conventions, as well as the Pentagon's Law of War Manual.

This kind of focus on civilians is exactly what we accuse our adversaries of doing and what our military trains to avoid. It’s built into the rigorous drilling and routines that our military are trained on from their first weeks. If they are today or have been asked to do things that violate the law and their training, it puts them in very real legal jeopardy.

I know that our service members up and down the chain of command know their duty and the law to refuse illegal orders. Even as the Commander-in-Chief tells the world otherwise. It’s moments like these that are why we made the video to service members last year. And I hope and believe our troops — especially those in command — will have the moral clarity to push back if they are given clearly illegal orders.

Congratulations to @CoachDustyMay, Elliot Cadeau, and @UMichBBall on winning their first title since 1989! This team dominated the tournament from start to finish. Well deserved. Go Blue!

Also just throwing this out here now. Michigan needs to proactively extend Dusty May before NBA flirtations can become a thing. He’s earned it and then some.

MacKenzie Scott gave more in 2025 than Musk, Page, Ellison, and her ex-husband, Bezos, have in their lifetimes combined.

Let that sink in, folks.

“Democrats are afraid of what they’ll find in the Epstein Files. They don’t want full accountability.”

I will burn the Democratic Party to the ground and piss on the ashes if I find out our leaders were involved in a massive child sex trafficking operation. Every Democrat I know feels the same.

Meanwhile, Republicans are doing all they can to ensure these files remain redacted and incomplete while they test balloon messaging that downplays what happened to these kids.

We are not the same.

[Brad Galli @BradGalli]

Dusty May said he has a ton of respect for Michigan State, but wasn’t worried about U-M’s losing streak in East Lansing.

He said he took from Curt Cignetti: “This team hasn’t played here.”

“Obviously this is big for our fans, but this was more about us winning on the road because we have a difficult schedule coming up,” he said.

I am proud to have Canada, a smart, sensible, and gracious neighbor showing leadership like this.

I am not proud of the disfunctional American leadership either domestically or internationally.

I hang onto hope America will reset our moral compass to true north.
