Sexism and misogyny all in 30 seconds, along with the usual bloviating, self-aggrandizement.

Here's what I don't understand: Why isn't the next thing we hear from a WH reporter: "Mr. President, with all due respect, you owe Kaitlan an apology for your uncalled-for attacks."

George Conway on Trump: “He invites people to feel as if they are superior by hating on other people. He has created a permission structure for people to be their worst selves. He has taught Americans that it’s okay to be selfish and spiteful and hateful and angry and resentful and that is the most toxic thing he has done to the country”

strafed?

[The Boston Globe @BostonGlobe]

The man who allegedly strafed Memorial Drive with gunfire, seriously wounding two people, faced sentencing in 2021 for shooting at Boston police officers. https://t.co/Jn8OmLmxtH

This is one of the greatest plays in football history.

Shorter Charlie Baker: We like money a lot but I’ll say “student athlete” a few times and no one will notice

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

Trump threatened to nuke Iran during the same press event where he called a woman reporter "baby" and a "bitch" and we'll all just supposed to continue on tomorrow as though any of this insanity is normal or acceptable

@LEHK0NEN no wang?

Buttigieg: The founders didn’t set up a democracy because they just thought it was academically interesting. They did it because they saw that if one person has too much power, daily life gets worse.

That’s why I’m a little allergic to this idea that we shouldn’t worry about our democracy because we need to talk about things that are a little more immediate. They go together. We should talk about all of them at once.

The reason why you paid $1,000 more per household last year in tariffs is because we have a president who doesn’t think he’s accountable to the American people and didn’t think he had to follow the law. These things are connected.

Trump: I’m gonna wipe out an entire civilization.

Pope: That’s wrong.

Vance: The pope should stick to questions of morality.

[The Boston Globe @BostonGlobe]

In his strongest words yet, Pope Leo XIV denounced the “delusion of omnipotence” that is fueling the US-Israel war in Iran and demanded political leaders stop and negotiate peace. https://t.co/rC3E2yUz6X

[Scotland’s Coefficient @scotlandscoeff1]

The '530 page book of lies' also known as the '2026 World Cup Bid Document' stated that America would prioritise public transport over private vehicle use.

Calling a stadium "Boston stadium" but the stadium is actually a totally inaccessible 25 miles away is like Scotland hosting a tournament at the "Glasgow Stadium" - when the game's actually at Rugby Park in Kilmarnock.

To then quadruple the price of trains - which can only take 20,000 people - and charge $175 for a car parking space is an absolute abomination.

There are only 5,000 car parking spots. Even if every car has 3 people in it, that still leaves nearly 30,000 fans attempting to get to the game by bus?

This is going to be fucking carnage. Folk paying $1,000 for a ticket and missing the game is an absolute certainty. Tickets which by the way the 2026 bid book stated would range from $21-$323.

At Euro 2028 there will be fans that get match tickets to ALL THREE of Scotland's group games, their train travel to every game, food and drink at all 3 games - and still have a good bit of change from the $175 car parking charge in "Boston".

[Prem Thakker @prem_thakker]

Even if Trump is "bluffing," the US may never come back from this. Whether you voted for him or not, the rest of the world sees this guy as our collective will. To everyone else, we are a landmass teeming with viciousness. We have a very high bar to prove that's not true.

[Russell Moore @drmoore]

That one can excuse or ignore this while claiming to be “pro-life” is a sign of a seared conscience. God have mercy on us all.

[Isaac Saul @Ike_Saul]

If it’s so easy to take the Strait, why don’t we take it? If we have so much oil, more than we ever need, why are gas prices so high? If all our goals are essentially achieved, why do we need another 2-3 weeks of bombing? Saying nothing of the war crime threats, just nonsensical.

[KFC @KFCBarstool]

This is, absolutely, one of the funniest things ever said. Saying “I like to hang out with losers because it makes me feel better” out loud is so counter to all human behavior it’s fascinating. People would hide that in shame forever. Don just says it
