@ChrisCataluna_ Brah I am sorry. Horrible way to end that game. Just dribble it out and make them foul you Fox

It’s wild bc the only ppl who would possibly oppose this are those who know they can’t keep their seat without big PAC money.

I suspect, though, that we will see a large share of those individuals, which tells you all you need to know about just how rickety our “system” is atm.

May the fourth be with you

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach.

The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.

The Maxx Crosby story is wild. If ever there was a failed physical that should’ve stopped a trade…

[Roy White III @RDubThree]

Conservatives - for YEARS - begged everyone to keep politics out of their sports.

Now, we literally can’t go a month w/o injecting RW politics into a sport event - Army/Navy, TPUSA halftime show, CFB podcasts, the Olympics - and they’re all 100% onboard w/politics in sports.

For all those who didn't watch tonight, allow me to summarize:

The liar lied again.

The Kid Mero weighs in on the anti-trans swimmer Riley Gaines:

"You came in fifth. You didn't lose because there was a transgender athlete in this swim meet. You lost because you were ass. So fight against being ass."

Don Lemon: “That is just plain old racism. Karoline Leavitt had the nerve to say this is just a joke. Are you out of your fucking mind Karoline Leavitt? No, no, no. There is nothing funny about depicting anybody as apes or monkeys. It is revolting. So Karoline Leavitt, fuck off.”
