“Then Oregon State and Washington State used the settlement money to pull in Boise State, Fresno State, Colorado State, Texas State, San Diego State, and Utah State. They had this great State school bit going but then Gonzaga joined for hoops, ruined it”

The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect. Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.
This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.
South Carolina lost a giant last night.
For more than three decades, Lindsey Graham gave everything he had to this state and this country, from the Air Force to the United States Senate.
We did not always agree, but no one ever questioned his love for South Carolina or the fight he brought to every room he walked into.
Please join me in praying for his family and for all who called him a friend. Rest easy, Senator.
A lot of Poch’s success at Spurs is because of ( /in addition 2 Harry Kane and prime Dembele and Eriksen and a generational Dutch duo at center back) his love for/belief in his players on display here. Cool that more casual fans here get to see it
@Andy_Lowes@MC_of_A if merely reckless it’s only a yellow or caution according to FIFA’s own rules (https://t.co/LIiBSViSbF). Best argument for it being a red is SFP, but i’m not convinced he was “lunging” at the defender; it was just a clumsy play on the ball executed in a millisecond
Following Wednesday's win against Bosnia and Herzegovina, Mauricio Pochettino becomes the winningest World Cup manager in USMNT history.
It was just his fourth World Cup match in charge.
@schwartzsteins@ChrisVannini Jozy altidore had horrible ball control and couldn’t shoot balogun is a persistent forward-running demon can do both what are you talking about
Hey @jonfavs question, in retrospect what do you think is more offensive: attending an anti-Israel protest on Oct 8 2023 (even granting it was too “celebratory”) or Jeffries and Schumer attending a pro-Israel rally on Nov 14 2023 after Israel had killed more than 4,000 children?
