This should be getting far more attention from the media, and it should be investigated as a hate crime. A 14-year-old Black teen was targeted, beaten, and dehumanized with racial slurs by white teens while people stood around cheering. 1/4
Hit it!
Success tastes like this

Holographic images of Trump have gone up in Los Angeles and itβs pretty cool.

Is that based off of Ozmandias from The Watchmen?
Yep. I've noticed that the data from government sources usually considered reliable is not (IMO) making sense. "Double check and then triple check everything and the sources" is my new MOO
Thanks Jan! BTW, even though I know that the random number generators on these online poker sites are rigged for "action", I've gone back to playing a little bit (just for fun, no real $). The last tourny I played, I won ($1 million buyin, won $10 million) Tell your son I'm comin

She's very lucky to be alive. As well as her dog. I hope she goes for "pain and suffering" damages for having to hire lawyers and spend time in the court system recouping when she sues the bejeezsus out of the city. i think my number would be 10 million at least www.youtube.com/watch?v=VaOp...
So, I saw a news story saying that the Commerce Dept (Howard Lutnick led) numbers are that GDP and consumer spending were up. But that's not what I was hearing elsewhere. Am I confusing news stories?
Well, it looks like my NYT games career is over- since they want you to pay now... Farewell and Godspeed to the NYT π Also: HOW BOUT THEM COWBOYS!?!? hahahahaha
Very good analogy.
Is that right? I'm very impressed now. I used to be a big fan of the WSOP... Anyone who gets to the final table must be very good and also very lucky. Do you remember what year he went? I stopped watching a while back, but I used to watch the old school ones. Loved me some Phil Ivey
The Temptations, 'Ball of Confusion (That's What the World is Today)' Can we talk about how this song dropped over 50 years ago and still hits way too hard today?
I played roulette ONCE... I won like $75 on this first spin, tipped the dealer $5 and have never played that game again. Poker's my game

Thanks, SCOTUSβfor giving him this dumb idea.
I just want a reporter to ask a question that begins with, βMany people say you are dyingβ¦β
After DEA GOONS begin to harass and question a man sitting in Starburst Plaza in NE Washington DC, local neighbors remind him of his rights and stand with him until the GOONS give up on their harassment.
Maybe Hegseth can use the clips of soldiers in uniform picking up trash around DC in a recruiting ad.
Who in the hell is running the country? Because it sure as fuck isn't this guy.
"There has just never been a president in recent American history who has gone out of his way to free more criminals and accommodate more crimes than Donald Trump," says @chrislhayes.bsky.social.
Krasner: So, if what you have is a group of ICE agents, or even the military, coming into Philadelphia and committing crimesβassaults that are illegal, kidnapping, unlawful restraint, obstruction of the administration of justiceβthey can be prosecuted.

Whew! Sen. Susan Collins should be βvery concernedβ She showed up as the main guest at a ribbon-cutting in Searsport, Maine. It backfired. The crowd was not happy to have her: βShame. Shame. Shame.β
If you wondered where all the money goes- here's a piece on leveraged buyouts, private equity, and the parasites who thrive when costs go up for everyday Americans www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pzL...
@velshi.com makes a great point. Bloomberg can talk about "free markets" all they want, but when the U.S. consumer demand crash comes (and it's coming)- the entire economy is going to implode. And the U.S. economy portends the world's economies. At least it used to. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vcqc...
Freudian slips- When Bloomberg Surveillance makes multiple mentions of the "free markets" reactions, you know they're feeling a bit defensive in light of what Trump is doing to their brand. Conservatives, I mean. Not falling for it, Mr. Ferro

Who knew that you could (*checks notes) get permanent brusing from simply shaking hands with people? First time I ever heard of that π
What an absolute fraud Li is. We need to better vet these folks- how do you go from blue to Confederate in the blink of an eye? ποΈ
Very nice recovery

Yeah, I kinda gave up early on this one- had to take my car to the shop this morning and my mind was elsewhere I'll be back
I remember Obama being torn to shreds for βpicking winners & losersβ when it came to solar power companies.
Nice work
