Computer called this shot by Sinner out in the tiebreak. Did anyone else think it was in? Is it possible the computer at Wimbledon is wrong?

Mob of Pro-Hezbollah / Hamas shitheads raging against law enforcement and terrorizing the NYC Jewish community near a synagogue and day care.
Where’s my party’s condemnation?
Why won't you speak up for Iranian women

It’s not just that this is a perfect answer delivered with eloquence and ease.
It’s also that Marco has been saying this for decades of public life and he truly believes it.
If America wants to make it past 250 years old this is the attitude we need… https://t.co/bH2AAIiUa9
While filling in for @PressSec, @marcorubio answers a powerful question: "What is your hope for America at a time such as this?"
His answer blew me away.
Palestine is just going to end up being another BLM or Defund The Police or trans sports — a big albatross that in five years Dems will insist never happened while they delete all their tweets
BREAKING: Hundreds of masked Islamists are attempting to breakthrough an NYPD barricade, as they assault police officers, and call for acts of terrorism.
Our country cannot tolerate this. Enough is enough.
Watching @ZohranKMamdani's oafish, unprovoked attack on Ken Griffin blow up in his face in real time tells us so much about how contemporary leftism has been reconfigured by its elite practitioners.
Firstly, Mamdani is not a "have-not." He is a Bowdoin graduate, the son of a Columbia professor and an internationally celebrated filmmaker, whose path to a New York City mayoralty ran through exactly the credentialed-creative pipeline that produces most of his voters.
His base is not the working class. It is the downwardly mobile but college-educated, who were promised a particular kind of life by their degrees and are furious it didn't arrive, and who have decided the people standing between them and that life are not the radicalized professors who sold them seductive fictions or the ideologically captured universities that took their money, but a hedge fund manager in Miami.
This is what I'd call Privilege Populism. The aesthetics of class struggle, performed by people whose parents or grandparents technically already won the class struggle, but with the appropriated symbolism recast in the direction of people who won it slightly more.
It is war between the "haves" versus "have-mores," as some others have put it.
The Mamdani's inciting video, gleeful in its innumeracy about about whether a $500 million pied-à-terre tax can actually fund anything it claims to, defiant in its ignorance about the dynamic effects of such taxation on human behavior and wealth outmigration, is the genre's mature form.
Griffin's response is the part worth watching. He didn't argue or issue a statement offering a philosophical defense of capitalism. He simply pointed to his Miami construction project and said: this is the way.
Then he said the part that should make every blue-state mayor uncomfortable: that what's happening in New York is "triggering the trauma I went through in Chicago."
I watched that trauma play out for twenty years. Progressive politicians perform to excite the grievances and resentments of credentialed creatives, the productive class that subsidizes the city quietly relocates, the tax base hollows out, and the people who stay behind look at the resulting societal decline around them and misinterpret it as proof that they must vote even further to the left than before in order to improve things.
In a warped but unignorable way, liberal mismanagement of states like Illinois and New York helped nurse the conservative governance triumphs of Florida and Texas.
The Privilege Populists never figure this out, because the point is never truly to improve the lives of the "have-nots." It's to *perform* therapeutic acts of Resistance for them, on camera, against "villains" who can afford to leave and do.
Watch this short clip of @KemiBadenoch articulating simple & plain truths which are — sadly — a breath of fresh air. Why can’t more leaders in the UK, Canada, France, Australia, and even here in US, speak with such clarity on what’s going on?
Reminder that the Iranian Revolution started as a student-led leftist Marxist movement to overthrow the Shah. Then Muslims joined in, presenting themselves as ‘anti-imperialists’ too.
Once the Islamic regime took power, those same leftist students and their progressive ideals were the first to be killed.
Leftist students in American and Western universities are literally making the same mistake right now. They never learned the lesson.
1/ Toronto is in decline — and it’s visible everywhere you look.
Potholes that never get fixed. Overflowing garbage cans on every corner. A TTC that doubles as a homeless shelter. Endless congestion. Rising costs for worse service.
It’s time for change at City Hall. 🧵
As a genocide scholar, help me out.
Can you point to a single other "genocide" in history where:
a) The target population grew larger every year,
b) The target population refused to surrender,
c) The genocidal party provided mass humanitarian aid
d) The genocidal party warned the population to move
e) The target population of this genocide immediately held victory parades?
f) The genocidal party had the ability to wipe out the entire target party from the air without a single military casualty but chose not to do so?
g) The genocide abruptly stopped with a ceasefire agreement.
h) Hundreds of medical students from the target population trained and graduated during the genocide.
Any one example will do. Just one. I'll wait.
I think it really needs to be a much bigger story that Mayor Mamdani apparently used AI to write his statement on last nights antisemitic graffiti.
That is how little he and his team care.
They couldn’t even bother to put five minutes worth of thought into a statement, and instead pushed out some AI boilerplate slop.
What an absolute joke.
