@dick_nixon @RadioFreeTom Only Kojak doing Players Club ads and Gerry Cooney as the celebrity greeter at Mr. Burns' Casino could approach this level of entertainment.

@AllHabs Phew. Thought he was announcing he would no longer wear turtlenecks.

[Yaska Sankar @ysankar1]

@AllHabs Except the guy is a complete asshole and has alienated both teammates and coaches wherever he goes.

@TSNHockey @HayesTSN The major move Brad Treliving should consider to get cap compliant:

[Norman Ornstein @NormOrnstein]

It is not just the rulings the Roberts Court is making. They created out of hole cloth a bogus, major questions doctrine. They made a mockery of standing. They rewrite laws to fit their radical ideological preferences. They have unilaterally blown up the legitimacy of the Court

[Michelle Obama @MichelleObama]

I wanted to share some of my thoughts on today's Supreme Court decision on affirmative action:

[Yaska Sankar @ysankar1]

@afdcaptrb Yeah the hot takes are going to be whizzing by like hot coals off the BBQ.

[Arpon Basu @ArponBasu]

I'm sure everyone will react to this very rationally

@BlainPotvin_THW @HabsUnfiltered As much as i like Newhook's game and the early consensus he could be Dach 2.0, is there any thought that he might be used as part of a package to move up into the top 4?

[Priyanta Emrith @HabsInHighHeels]

#Habs acquire Alex Newhook from Colorado in exchange for Montreal’s 31st and 37th overall picks in 2023 and defenseman Gianni Fairbrother.

As a recent submersible expert I’m excited to speak to you today as a Russian paramilitary expert

[Pierre LeBrun @PierreVLeBrun]

I'm not pretending to have all the answers, but I'm disappointed by the NHL's decision here. Feels like a step backwards. I get that there's some owners that maybe will never be swayed. But further dialogue and education should be the focus. Not giving it to the dissenting voices

There is word this afternoon that Vancouver will buy out Oliver Ekman-Larsson. He will be an unrestricted free agent.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Tina Turner was raw. She was powerful. She was unstoppable. And she was unapologetically herself—speaking and singing her truth through joy and pain; triumph and tragedy. Today we join fans around the world in honoring the Queen of Rock and Roll, and a star whose light will never fade.

@HabsChronicle Kent, Jeff, please sign him immediately. Seriously, what more does he have to prove in the NCAA? Imagine what Marty can do with a kid possessing a toolkit like THAT?

[Craig Baird - Canadian History Ehx @CraigBaird]

Gordon Lightfoot has died at the age of 84.
Calling him a Canadian icon or legend is an understatement.
He was one of our greatest singer-songwriters.
Born in Orillia, Ontario on Nov. 17, 1938, he had several #1 albums & songs.
He won 16 Junos.
RIP to a legend.

@RyanWaltersSupt Teaching students of all races about the very real evils present in this country's documented and factual history is not indoctrination, you ignoramus. If you're not teaching them actual history, you're just feeding them sanitized fiction.

[NBC Bay Area @nbcbayarea]

Most Californians will have a few more months to file their federal and state tax returns this year because of an extension by the IRS and California's Franchise Tax Board. https://t.co/4rUBNxB0rx

It was a good feeling rolling up to the lunch table with this setup..
