For starters Obama was an OUTSPOKEN basketball fan. He did March madness every year, regularly played and talked about the NBA. Trump has spent YEARS calling the NBA woke and trash, and now wants to show up because the attention isn’t on him. It’s just not close to the same
We are ten years into allegations of widespread election fraud - only for elections Trump or republicans lose, mind you - for which Trump and allies have either not produced evidence, or claimed evidence which was subsequently debunked. And blatant contradictions - such as celebrating wins under the same laws and practices while confidently declaring theft for any losses - are now the norm.
New reporting reveals Republican nominee for Iowa Governor Zach Lahn lives full time in Kansas.
Lahn says he plans to move to Iowa only if he is elected.
These people have been waiting an hour to get into Madison Square Garden.
Here is a first person account:
“They routed everyone down to 34th and 8th.
Police barracade.
Through metal detectors to a point about 200 feet from MSG.
Then they came and apologized and said they were confused and instead we needed to exit the barracade and go to 34th and 7th.
We walked there and then a different set of police told us to go to 32nd and 6th.
There are hundreds, if not a thousand people, wandering around in giant herds not knowing where to go or how to get in.
The police keep saying they don’t know the protocol.”
Unreal to me that they caught this guy taking a bribe with *the literal bag of money in his hand* and he's still a top White House advisor and no one talks or thinks about it anymore
This girl found out that the Albanian island that the Kushner’s are buying is registered in Amsterdam by Zvernic South Adriatic Development & it’s owned through a chain of Dutch Shell Companies & it’s managed by a trust office.They’re really trying to hide the owners names well.
🚨 WTF?! Top congressman Thomas Massie confirms US fighter jets were launched to save the USS Liberty from the Israeli attack, but Washington inexplicably recalled them.
The Pentagon intentionally abandoned their own men for 17 hours to protect Zionist regime! Total betrayal.
We’ve reached the point where Nazi Germany placed less restrictions on foreign participation in the 1936 Olympics than has the United States for the upcoming FIFA World Cup.
Dirty rotten scoundrel Gianni Infantino must never be allowed to live down his obsequious sycophancy towards the US leadership.
This man just accidentally discovered the cheat code and doesn't even know the full exploit yet
That 1099-C means the debt is CANCELLED. Legally dead. If any collector ever tries to collect on that $8,500 again you sue them under FDCPA and collect $1,000 per violation
But here's where it gets nasty
The IRS sent you that 1099-C because they want their cut. $8,500 in "income" at your bracket is roughly $1,020 in federal tax
Except if your total debts exceeded your total assets at the time of cancellation (and let's be honest... they did) you file IRS Form 982 and claim insolvency
Tax on that $8,500: $0
The bank wrote off $8,500
The IRS gets $0
The collector can never touch it again
Your credit rebuilds in 24 months without the balance dragging your utilization
He turned $8,500 in debt into a legally protected $0 liability and a 617 score that's about to be 720 in 90 days if he runs the dispute sequence on whatever else is sitting on his report
The bank paid him to leave. The IRS is about to get nothing. And the bureaus are holding records they can't verify because the original creditor literally told the IRS they gave up
This is the part nobody talks about. Once a creditor files a 1099-C they've admitted in writing to the federal government that the debt is uncollectable. That filing IS your dispute evidence. Send it to all 3 bureaus with a letter that says "original creditor confirmed cancellation, remove this tradeline" and watch them scramble
617 with no payments is honestly more impressive than 750 with $3,200/mo minimum payments going to Chase so they can lend your money to someone else at 24%
One of you is free. The other one is the product
(i delete the rest of that report in 30-90 days. link in bio)
Soccer would not exist without immigrants. Immigrants play and coach the game, work in the stadiums, fill the stands, and make celebrations like the World Cup possible. Six of the players on the US Men's National Team are immigrants.
We will not allow ICE or anyone else to sow fear in our communities — especially at this moment. As the world comes to our city, we will stand proudly with our immigrant neighbors and reject these attacks for what they are: an attempt to divide us.
FL police use A.I. to identify a vehicle theft suspect from surveillance video. Based on an "85% match" they arrest and charge Jalil Richardson. He spends 3 months in jail. He loses his job, his home, and custody of his kids.
Richardson lives in N.C.
He's never been to Florida. And his timesheet shows him at work at the time of the crime. No one checked before charging him. https://t.co/2AcQYwq30f
Rep. Byron Donalds R-FL still has not explained how he voted on the House floor in Feb. 2025 while he was in Los Angeles for the Bill Maher show. Someone voted for Donalds twice that day - another Florida Republican perhaps used his voting card?
He played Daenerys's mercenary lover for three episodes, then walked off the biggest show on television. The recast is the version people remember. The better story comes later.
Ed Skrein left Game of Thrones after season 3. The press said he chose to headline The Transporter Refueled, the 2015 reboot built to make him the next Jason Statham. It pulled $16M domestic, killed a franchise that had run since 2002, and ended his shot at leading man before it started.
So he went the other way and became a villain for hire. Ajax in Deadpool. Zapan in Alita. Atticus Noble across two Rebel Moon films. Always the threat, rarely the lead, never out of work.
Then in 2017 Lionsgate cast him as Major Ben Daimio in the Hellboy reboot. He signed on, then learned the character is Japanese-American in the source comics. He stepped down. In writing. Handed the part back so it could be cast correctly, and Daniel Dae Kim took it.
John Cho, Riz Ahmed, Ava DuVernay, and George Takei publicly thanked him for it. Daniel Dae Kim said he remained indebted to him for his strength of character.
The joke is that he fumbled a hit show for a movie no one saw. The thing he's actually known for in Hollywood is being one of the only white actors who ever gave back a role that wasn't written for him. One of those choices reads a lot better eight years later than any opening weekend.
Last week, an arbitrator blew up StubHub's convoluted arbitration agreement. STUB has failed to pay required AAA fees in four of my clients' cases; it has moved it address for Notices of Dispute six times in one year; its addresses have oftentimes been vacant or undeliverable; it claims its liability in most cases is limited to $200 in damages (even if they failed to refund a consumer $8,000 for scam tickets); STUB requires consumers to contact them by certified mail at shifting, bogus addresses while STUB can email the consumer if it so chooses; and the list goes on and on. They wanted to hide all of this in arbitration, but that's not working out so well for them.
Kyle Clark asked Colorado GOP candidate for governor Victor Marx whether voters should believe he’s lived "one of the most extraordinary lives in human history," or whether he’s "a liar and a fraud."
John Oliver: “That might be the first event in history won by the moderator.”
Savannah's parents criminally defrauded people out of millions of dollars.
(Savannah was also one of Trump's Miss Teen USA pageant girls.)
Trump pardoned them. Now she's out here doing PR for the Trump team at @TPUSA events.
