Reunion: The Vikings are trading for their own former star WR Adam Thielen, per me and @tompelissero.bsky.social, as Thielen heads back to MIN after a quick stint in Carolina. Carolina gets: A 2026 5th rounder and a 2027 4th. Minnesota gets: Thielen, a conditional 2026 7th and 2027 5th.
Please leave, Pohlad family! This sucks.
Talarico owns Will Cain so hard that he has to tap out of their interview based on "time"
Note to Kristi Noem: It is far better to be mocked in a cartoon for how you look than to be shoved into the back of a U-Haul and kidnapped for how you look.
"There's a critical difference between acknowledging a nation’s history and celebrating its worst moments. In Germany, they don’t erase their shameful Nazi past, but that doesn’t mean they’re erecting hagiographic statues commemorating war criminals."
When do they just cut straight to Arbeit Macht Frei?
well well well
The highest levels of the Trump administration are collaborating with the FBI and DOJ to cover-up evidence the President committed sexual crimes against children. Unspeakably corrupt, and not a single Republican in Congress can be expected to speak out against it.
some interesting salutes at the end of this clip too
What are batteries??
What a pathetic excuse of a person.
Breaking Bloomberg: The FBI redacted Trump's name in the Epstein files. "An FBI [Freedom of Information Act] team redacted Trump's name—and the names of other prominent public figures—from the documents, according to three people familiar with the matter." www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...
Unreal. Impressive move Twins, even for the Pohlad family.
The "EXTREME HEAT" warning is just too perfect for this story
NEW: Tomorrow’s front page of Scottish newspaper, The National.
The good news is you don’t have to deal with him, your squad drafted Jalen Reagor instead.
A Nazi owns Twitter, right wing billionaires own the Wall Street Journal and the LA Times, and CBS is run by a right wing nepo baby who just fired one of the network’s biggest stars for criticizing Donald Trump. Here’s why America has a left-wing media bias problem.
UPDATE through Fox News' 4 p.m. hour: Biden: 85 mentions Epstein: STILL ZERO Fox is following Trump's marching orders and shutting up about the story currently consuming the MAGA movement. bsky.app/profile/did:... ·

You can't make it up MAGA Congressman Derrick Van Orden-a huge supporter of the Big Ugly Bill Who published this repugnant post cheering the fact that the law would gut Medicaid and SNAP Is now BEGGING the Democratic governor of his state To save the very hospitals that he just voted to close
I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
If a sitting president can openly muse about arresting and disappearing someone who is likely to become mayor of the country's largest city, while also getting the funding for a massive secret police, it'd be hard to find sufficient evidence to qualify that country as a democracy.
Make Foreign Influence Great Again??
DONAKD
Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.
Jeep drivers without a dashboard full of rubber duckies, I salute you 🫡
SLOTKIN: Have you given the order to be able to shoot at unarmed protesters in any way? HEGSETH: What is that based on? SLOTKIN: It is based on Trump giving that order to your predecessor, who I give a lot of credit to bc he didn't accept the order. He has more guts & balls than you
New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism “'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.' *More of this, please*"
Masked federal agents just illegally arrested New York City’s elected Comptroller. Outrageous. The Trump Administration went after Brad Lander for asking this simple question: “Do you have a warrant?” By asking this question, Brad was standing up for the basic rights of all Americans.
the regressiveness of the Trump's big bill, in one image
And there it is. The Minnesota assassin who shot Democratic lawmakers “voted for Donald Trump and was a strong Trump supporter,” according to his best friend.
Look, it’s simply an incredible string of coincidences that so many Republican officials turn out to be pedophiles.
This is disgusting. If this is how they treat Alex Padilla, a United States Senator, how do you think they’ll treat you?
I was a medic at the Santa Ana protests in OC today. I watched police fire tear gas, flash bangs, & rubber bullets into crowds of men, women, & children. Other medics and I were clearly marked with red crosses, and the police were targeting us. One of the most fucked up things I’ve ever seen.
Jeffries: "We will not be lectured by Donald Trump and anyone in the Republican Party about issues of law and order ... he pardoned hundreds of violent felons, criminals, who brutally assaulted police officers and attacked the Capitol on January 6. That's what Donald Trump did on day one."
Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"
Every accusation is a confession
We hear about how pro-immigrant side is extreme. There is literally nothing more extreme than this statement. Being willing to sacrifice the country’s foundations for an evil goal
MERZ: Tomorrow is the D Day anniversary, when the Americans ended a war in Europe TRUMP: That was not a pleasant day for you? This is not a great day MERZ: This was the liberation of my country from Nazi dictatorship

Anthony Edwards was 6 when LeBron James made his Finals debut in 2007. He was 10 when Kevin Durant & OKC made the Finals in 2012. He was 13 when Steph Curry & the Warriors started their streak of five Finals apps. in 2015. At 23, he's knocked all three out of the playoffs over the last 2 years.
Come back soon, Jimmy!
You got a player's father from the other team giving his jersey to your franchise player mid series? Yeah... this is just about fully cooked.
The fact that the Warriors 3rd stringers played harder than Draymond Green and Jimmy Butler tells you something about what those 2 bring...
“You don’t pay for BRIBES, stupid!”
It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

Anyone trying to drag us away from this, this miracle of help, is in a cult of death
This is so powerful.
If Hegseth resigns and we get an Acting Secretary of Defense, it'll be the eighth time we've had one. One came under Nixon, a second under GHW Bush. And then we had *five* under Trump.

“The Trump administration has ordered State Department employees to report on any instances of coworkers displaying ‘anti-Christian bias’ as part of its effort to implement a sweeping new order on supporting employees of Christian faith.”
During your life your dad has declared bankruptcy six times.
So we’re 75 days into trumps second term, people are protesting everywhere. Markets have had two days of absolutely apocalyptic losses. There are grad students being disappeared and a man with an autism awareness tattoo was sent to a super scary prison in El Salvador. They’ve cut cancer research..
To put it in real terms: This press conference cost the U.S. stock market somewhere in the realm of $1-2 trillion dollars.
We are nearing the greatest 24 hours in Timberwolves history
The reason that the US is locking up tourists for weeks in hellish detention centers rather than letting them book tickets back home is because the detention centers are owned by corporations. They are charging the taxpayers fortunes to cage these people, and making bonanzas off their suffering.
Carney: "The old relationship we had with the United States based on deepening integration of our economies and tight security and military cooperation is over."
Throwing people out of the country for exercising freedom of speech. This is where we are.
Huh?
Trump’s U.S. Attorney General wants people to stop protesting Tesla and being mean to Elon because Elon gave Trump $390 million in campaign donations. That’s it. Protect the oligarchs and their wealth. It’s really that simple. www.publicnotice.co/p/bondi-croc...
anyway calling these "war plans" when they were actually plans to blow up an apartment building full of civilians because the girlfriend of a guy we don't like lived there sounds more like "terrorism plans" or perhaps even more accurately "terrorism factory creation plans"
It is obviously bad that they were texting this on Signal and bad that they let a journalist into their group chat. But the actual act they’re talking about—intentionally bombing civilians, a war crime—is the far more fundamental wrong.
Tulsi Gabbard’s testimony this morning was that she doesn’t remember the mention of specific targets or weapons systems in the group chat she can’t confirm or deny that she was on while traveling abroad in an undisclosed location using a device which she won’t say was personal or govt-issued.
The girl was 12 years old. He's one of Trump's biggest promoters and legitimizers. He's prayed over Trump in the White House. Trump's been to his church. Greg Abbott tapped him on the anti-trans bathroom bills. Now he faces 100+ years in prison. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/megachurch...

If your billionaire president turns The White House into a showroom for the richest man on the earth’s car company you might be living in a dystopian hellscape.
Quick check to see who our allies are now: if 9/11 happened today, who would actually help us find who did it? Canada? No. The EU? No. We are alone except for Israel and maybe Russia, which is too preoccupied to help, and whose “help” would be bad. We are so incredibly unsafe and effectively fucked.

The Seahawks have their new QB: It’s Sam Darnold. The former Vikings starter is finalizing a deal with Seattle, per The Insiders. He gets a 3-years deal worth nearly $100M, taking the place of Geno Smith. Darnold has been the favorite ever since the trade.
Can’t believe Twitter keeps crashing despite Elon hiring the best 19-year-old interns that racism has to offer
Arresting and threatening to deport students because of their participation in political protest is the kind of action one ordinarily associates with the world’s most repressive regimes. It’s genuinely shocking that this appears to be what’s going on right here. 1/
Now that the influential bigot who did a Hitler salute publicly claimed that organic protests against his malfeasance are secretly controlled by a list of foreign Jews, some of whom aren’t even alive today, are we allowed to call him a Nazi, or is there something even Nazier we have to wait for?
Elon Musk's plan to cut the Social Security Administration's staff by 50% would cause 37,000 more Americans to die each year waiting to receive their disability benefits while the average wait time to collect these benefits would jump to 412 days. That is beyond unacceptable.
That is exactly true.
I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org
Rubio terminated 5800 USAID contracts – more than 90% of its foreign aid programs – in defiance of the courts. Here’s a list of just some of the lifesaving awards that were terminated. Nearly all were Congressionally mandated. They’ve saved millions of lives. 🧵
Just got fired from being a freshman football coach, if you want to know what MAGA does to communities. They don’t care about what helps people, because the school is certainly not going to find an ex-NFL player willing to coach there at that level, they only care about trying to hurt people.
This is evil. Pure evil.
