@WilbertArenas88 @Jacobtheclipper I’ve been thinking about you more and I think it’s worth it just to see Toronto fans happy. Lord knows the Leafs and Jays aren’t doing it for them this year. I’m a New Yorker now and adore the Knicks but will always love the Raps. #WeTheNorth

@WilbertArenas88 @Jacobtheclipper Good luck trying to explain that to Raptors fans 🤣🤣

@AlexSeixeiro No way. He is in his mid-30s and always injured. Toronto is just dying to relive 2019, but that was 7 years ago and a lot has changed.

@Craig_A_Spencer Appalling @people hasn’t taken this down yet. This can do a lot of damage in further undermining trust in public health and media.

The Knicks were down 22 points against the Cavaliers when Jalen Brunson decided to take over and put the Knicks on his back!! He scored 17 of his 38 points in the 4th quarter to lead the the Knicks to a win 115-104 in OT.

There’s no way the Cavaliers should’ve lost this game. It’s going to be hard to recover from this loss and win the Series.

@neeratanden Some of the comments in this thread prove your point. Scary and sad.

@shannonrwatts @neeratanden If there isn’t room for @shannonrwatts in today’s Democratic Party, then there definitely isn’t room for me. The DNC needs to disavow these extremists ASAP or we’ll be looking at President Vance or Rubio in 2028.

@heidilegg @davidaxelrod Heidi as a dual Canadian/US citizen, I couldn’t agree more. I’ve never seen Canadians radicalized to this degree. While I fully understand the damage Trump is doing to the Canadian economy, I’m also scared that Carney’s rhetoric is a tactic to consolidate power.

@davidsirota So many of us relate.

[Sasha Walek @swalek]

@kinsellawarren Sorry but as a Canadian, this is pathetic. Turning us against each other over a sporting event while the elites are laughing all the way to the bank. We need to resist this petty tribalism and ask who it’s really serving.

@MattWalshBlog What is wrong with you? Seriously

[Sasha Walek @swalek]

@MarkSteffich @winsford99 Honestly I think about 3 in 10 now. He’s lost a lot of support and losing more every day.

El Mencho is dead. Puerto Vallarta is now burning from a cartel war.

And one of Canada's best independent journalists just so happened to be on vacation there right when it all exploded.

What are the odds?

Stay safe, Dan.

@MacLeodLisa In all fairness the guy did have antisemitic slurs hurled at him last time he filmed something in Toronto. Look it up.

@terrelljstarr At least 3 women are murdered by their intimate partners in the U.S. every day and it has never once been framed as an epidemic by the press or by elected officials.

Millions of office jobs will evaporate in the next 12 - 24 months. This will be an epic disaster for millions of workers and families. https://t.co/6829id4rME

I'm in the room because I belong there.

@ZaidJilani Truly an idiot brigade.

@LuluGNavarro @EllenBarryNYT As a dual U.S./Canadian citizen living in the U.S, this speech is heartbreaking on so many levels. I’m still trying to process the dissolution of one of the most stable and enduring friendships. I’m starting to feel alien in both places.
