@CfcDan_01 What a weird lie. Why would you post this obvious fabrication? Henry said nothing of the kind, and it doesn't even sound like him. Is this some weird kind of devotion to Messi that inspired you to make this up? The obvious tell is when you bring Ronaldo into it.

Speaker at Trump's MSG rally chokes up recalling how Trump's father paid to send him to private school in the 70s because Black children were being bused to integrate NYC public schools. This man is the same age as Kamala Harris, who was a Black child bused to school in Berkeley.

After a bunch of online "experts" popped up to accuse the NYT of faking CT scans showing Gazan children shot in the head, the Times confirms that it has photo evidence corroborating the scans that is too horrific to make public. Hope all the people who boosted this lie are proud.

@MenInBlazers I distinctly remember hearing that a 2-0 lead was the most precarious position in all of soccer.
But it is true that no team has ever come back against a better team from a 2-0 deficit.

Fwiw, I have spoken to AG over the past year about this topic & this caricature is unrecognizable. I never usually comment on media stories but this irritated me bc it's such a bs mischaracterization of his views about the importance of serious longform presidential interviews.

@NewYorkRedBulls This aged well.

@dchangnyt All this machinery making modern journalism can still be open-hearted.

Now blocking around 500 Russian troll farm accounts/day.

It's insane.

And we're not even close to the November election yet.

@julcarm No! Brutal, unfair. But if anyone will land on her feet, you will.

This just happened: A New York State judge has ordered Donald Trump to pay The New York Times $392,638.69 for legal fees connected to a frivolous lawsuit he brought against the paper, two of my colleagues and me.👍https://t.co/17TJesOEn5

@NewYorkRedBulls It's a little on-the-nose that the moment of the year for the Red Bulls is a substitution.

@FOXSoccer @USMNT You’re making it weird.

@nyttypos @nytimes @johnleland Perfect. No notes.

@NewYorkRedBulls @momentumsolar So is this the Cincinnati hometown broadcast? It was frozen for the start of the second half for me; did the broadcast even address the Badji punch?

[WmFerguson @WmFerguson]

How is that not a red card for Badji? Elbow to the neck—eh, that’s a yellow. Exchanging shoves? No call probably or offsetting yellows. But throwing a straight punch? Wow. #RBNY
