This is a phenomenal piece by @Scaramucci these are the kind of reforms and new ideas we need. Not the same old bad solutions to tough problems. I appreciate the honesty here. @robertwolf32

Just talked to a volunteer, Tristan Chang, who witnessed Joaquin Niemann’s club throw that cost him a two-shot penalty:

-After hitting two balls OB, Niemann tried to get free relief from fire ants (to no avail) from where his third drive ended up in the fescue
-Got visibly angry and kicked the white flag that another volunteer used to mark his ball
-Continued to kick around the sand
-Proceeded to chuck his iron from the fescue area approximately 50 yards to the very edge of the course on the right
-Almost did not walk back for the club until a police officer delivered it to him

“Pretty impressive throw,” Chang said.

This is wild—and likely a sign of things to come as we transition to a web that is optimized for bots more than humans. https://t.co/5sb1cFlBQO

You realize the Spurs are up 1 here, right?

So all De’Aaron Fox has to do is pull the ball out and wait to get fouled

Spurs got it mostly locked up

… this will go down as the worst basketball decision in NBA history

The Spurs know how to TAKE the lead, they just don't know how to HOLD the lead. And that's really the most important part of the lead: the holding

Aimee Mann is the only guest vocalist on a Rush track, having sung on the band’s 1987 single “Time Stand Still” back when ‘Til Tuesday were still active. Rush kicked off their first tour in over a decade last night in Inglewood, CA, and they brought Mann onstage to perform the song live with them for the first time…

This New York Times piece is worth your time. Here’s what is happening, as simply as I can put it.

Back in January, Trump sued the IRS, an agency he controls, demanding $10 billion over the leak of his tax returns a number of years ago.

IRS lawyers did their jobs. They wrote a memo laying out the defenses that could beat the suit, including the fact that Trump filed too late. His own lawyer was in court when the leaker pleaded guilty in October 2023, more than two years before Trump sued.

The Justice Department never showed up to court. Never argued back. Never used the defenses sitting on their desk.

The judge got suspicious and ordered both sides to explain whether they were actually opposing each other or just colluding. The day before that brief was due, Trump dropped the suit.

Same day, his Justice Department announced a $1.776 billion taxpayer-funded “anti-weaponization fund.” 

Trump gets a formal apology. The IRS agrees to drop any audits of him and his family, even though a 2024 Times report found a loss in an ongoing audit could cost him over $100 million.

The acting Attorney General, Trump’s former criminal defense attorney, picks the five commissioners who decide who gets paid. Trump can fire any of them. Proud Boys and Oath Keepers are not ruled out.

This is the most corrupt thing I’ve ever seen from an American president.

Where in the hell are my Republican colleagues?

“Fight on, my men, Sir Andrew said. A little I'm hurt but not yet slain. I'll just lie down and bleed awhile. And I'll rise and fight again.” A little Marv Levy perspective, quoting Thomas Moore’s poem, for heartbroken Buffalo fans this AM.

The Bills have several "short weeks" but only have 2 rest disadvantages all year... at the Jets and Raiders, and the discrepancy is only one day of rest.

Bills have 5 rest advantages: Chargers, Ravens, at NE, Denver, and at Miami.

Bills do not play a single team off their bye.

It's a tough schedule ahead, but not because of rest discrepancies.

I don’t think I’ve ever had a Sabres game feel more like a Bills playoff game
