With a week to reflect, I’m convinced this was the greatest moment in sports history.
A 2-star recruit leads the worst program ever to a national championship, beats his hometown team that wouldn’t let him walk on, and finishes it by running over the same guy who knocked him out the year before, with his mother battling MS watching from the stands.
If it was a Disney movie, you’d say it was too much.
Bradley Whitford on Trump, "He stands before his cultish supporters, slathered in more makeup and more hairspray than a drag queen, dancing incoherently to YMCA and finding a way to weave his love for dictators into a bizarre admiration for Arnold Palmer's junk."
Arnold Palmer was “appalled” by Trump, his daughter Peg said (in 2020):
“My dad didn’t like people who act like they’re better than other people. He had no patience for people who are dishonest and cheat. My dad was disciplined. He wanted to be a good role model. He was appalled by Trump’s lack of civility and what he began to see as Trump’s lack of character.
One moment stood out in her mind from the 2016 campaign, when Mr. Palmer saw Mr. Trump on television: “My dad made a sound of disgust — like ‘uck’ or ‘ugg’ — like he couldn’t believe the arrogance and crudeness of this man who was the nominee of the political party that he believed in,” she recalled. “Then he said, ‘He’s not as smart as we thought he was.’”
These six minutes need to be shared with everyone.
Much appreciation to Jake Tapper for properly reporting on Trump’s fascist threat to use the U.S. military against American citizens, which has not generated the coverage elsewhere that it is due.

BREAKING: Fox News is now directly contradicting Donald Trump’s statements claiming the economy is weak. Retweet so all Americans see Fox praise the Biden-Harris economy and shoot down Trump’s wishes for bad news.
Holy shit! Bruce Springsteen, with one of the most eloquent endorsements for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz you'll hear. The Boss also delivered one of the strongest repudiations of the loathsome piece of shit I've heard from anyone. Let's fucking go‼️🙌🌊🇺🇸
