More jobs were created in Biden's last full month in office, 256k in December 2024, than in the entire year of 2025 under Trump, 181k.

Quite the golden age we are experiencing!

🚨Enormous flag here from this morning’s jobs report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which included the customary annual benchmark revisions in its January release today:

“The change in total nonfarm employment for 2025 was revised from +584,000 to +181,000”

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

The most openly corrupt president in living memory, probably ever

[Sean Maertens @SeanMaertens]

@jayl7en Congratulations on your new contract Jaylen. Well deserved. Excited to see you back with the team!

[Sean Maertens @SeanMaertens]

@esidery Salty Miami fans pretending something from 10 to 15 years ago has anything to do with the current team lmao.

The current roster has been a play in team for the last 4 years. Adding Giannis doesn't make a play in team better than Detroit, Boston New York, or Cleveland.

[Sean Maertens @SeanMaertens]

@esidery It's crazy to me that Giannis will sign an extension to be the 5th or 6th seed in Miami for the next several years 🤣

"Competing for championships" my foot

[Sean Maertens @SeanMaertens]

@Wolvesmuse Depends on if he will extend or not. If not, nothing. If so, anything but Ant should be on the table.

@HeatCulture13 @ramonashelburne "For Miami, pairing him with Bam Adebayo is the perfect front court pairing"

Yes, a big that can't consistently make 3s is the "perfect front court pairing".

[Camille MacKenzie @CamRMacKenzie]

LOL, it was his own contractors that poured hydrogen peroxide into the water to treat the algae that ruined the $14 million in work it took to put that awful epoxy on the granite and stripped it off. He can’t admit that the people NPS hired with their no bid contract didn’t know what they were doing. Him and the contractors should personally have to pay for the repairs to fix what they bungled then bungled a second time.

[Walter Masterson @waltermasterson]

Name a better take than this on the Iran war, I’ll wait.

[Tim Walz @Tim_Walz]

Found an imaginary problem, said only they could fix it, didn’t listen to experts, hired buddies who grifted millions, failed miserably, bragged how great it went.

The entire Trump presidency in a nutshell.

Congratulations to the Knicks, and their fans, on winning the NBA championship!

Now both KAT and Andrew Wiggins have won an NBA championship before Jimmy Butler as integral parts of their teams.

Sometimes, nice guys finish first!

[K👁🌲🐺🌲 @Kgformvp211]

Karl Anthony Towns has taught me so much about dealing with the loss of my mom 2 years ago. He also donated $5,000 dollars to my moms go fund me when she was battling pancreatic cancer. He is a great human. Me and my family will forever root for this man. So happy for him.

[Legion Hoops @LegionHoops]

Charles Barkley: “Karl-Anthony Towns should win the Finals MVP. That man deserves his flowers.”

Karl-Anthony Towns:

“He can’t f*ck with me.”

[Polymarket Hoops @PolymarketHoops]

In the summer of 2018, the narrative spread about how soft KAT and Andrew Wiggins were after Jimmy Butler went to the media calling them out when he beat them with third-stringers during practice…

Since then, Karl-Anthony Towns is now 2 WINS away from a championship, and Andrew Wiggins has already won one in 2022.

Crazy how life works.

[Oh No He Didn't @ohnohedidnt24]

If you hate KAT, I suggest you reconsider...

"I feel like other than losing a child there's nothing worse you could go through and it builds you up and it strengthens you beyond measure. That's why I got Philippians 4:13 and the date tattooed on my neck. I could do all things through Christ who strengthens me but I was strengthened on April 13 when I lost my mother. That's been my favorite Bible verse my whole entire life since I was little. I didn't know the significance it would have in my life when I became an adult. But what I do know is that I truly can do anything when I walk in faith, when I walk with the angels beside me. I feel anything's possible, I feel nothing's impossible...

I'm just grateful to be in this position because I know a lot of friends in mind that are not here to see this moment. I know a lot of people I love tremendously that aren't here to give me that hug or to give me that text message. I'm doing this for them. I do this for them, I do it for my mother's country, I do it for everybody in Dominican Republic, I do it for everyone in the city that welcomed my mother when she immigrated over. I do it for all my family in New Jersey that allowed me to be raised and allowed me to love this game of basketball and allowed me to be a kid with my mother and enjoy those times. It takes a tribe to get here and it takes a village and I'm so blessed that I've had the village I've had in my life to get to this point"

Centers with 85+ AST, 15+ STL and 20+ BLK in a postseason (since merger):

— Finals MVP
— Finals MVP
— Finals MVP

and Karl-Anthony Towns.

[Timberwolves Muse @Wolvesmuse]

KAT FMVP I can literally see it

[Richard Stengel @stengel]

George H.W. Bush kept his assets in a blind trust, as did Bill Clinton. Neither Obama nor Biden traded stocks or bonds while in office. 3,700 trades is probably more than all the trades of all the presidents until now. And he is trading stocks that are affected by his decisions. A walking conflict of interest, at the least, and perhaps insider trading. Just as members of Congress should not be able to trade stocks, so too the president. https://t.co/yDqVXWfDgc

[Sean Maertens @SeanMaertens]

Donald Trump is, easily, the most corrupt US President ever. Between his secret crypto donors, to the insider trading before every major announcement, to his pardons for cronies, to everything else I can't fit in a single tweet, he is cartoonishly corrupt.

[Luis Moreno @LuisMorenolg]

Virtually no coverage by the US media on “Honduras gate,” the alleged plot by Trump pardoned narco kingpin, Juan Orlando Hernandez, Javier Melli & Bibi Netanyahu to poison public opinion against the presidents of Colombia & Mexico. And yes, there are tapes. Another whitewashing.
