OMG, it seems as if the sanctions are just US window dressing. Who could have predicted this? Except anyone with a functional brain in February of 2022. Sorry, Ukraine. bsky.app/profile/maks...

Democratic electeds not dodging the “afraid to fight charge.” If you are scared of pixie13532 on Bluesky, I doubt your effectiveness against a wannabe dictator and a movement determined to destroy America and democracy.

On Memorial Day, I offer my thanks to all the true antifascists of history. Including both of my grandfathers who killed Nazis while serving with honor and integrity in WWII and then raised my parents well enough to know: We dont befriend Nazis, we dont elect Nazis, we dont become Nazis.

Trump told West Point cadets at their graduation that he wouldn't be able to shake their hands, a tradition among US presidents, because he had urgent matters to deal with on China and Russia. This was him "dealing" with China and Russia moments later. He went golfing.

What a surprise result for Marco Bezzecchi #MotoGP #BritishGP

The Ducati margin of advantage is shown to be the difference between soft and medium tires. Amazing that such a small difference can lead to domination. #MotoGP

Did Bez's team set the tire pressure to lead? I doubt it. #motogp

What a Moto2 race! That was amazing. El Gato, so close, but he has figured it out.

So Fabio lost 10 minutes of practice time for trying to get back into a race. What will Alex get for bringing out the red flag? #MotoGP
