Since 2000, the team that has won Game 4 in the finals has won the championship 19 times. And of the six teams that lost Game 4 and still won the finals, one was the Celtics last year and Warriors in 2017 when they were both already up 3-0 in the series.

These soldiers deserve so much better. This is a national disgrace.

It's a definite reminder of what we avoided for our first 249 years.

Who knew the next country the United States would invade based on a lie would be the United States.

NYT found the “big beautiful bill” would be the largest transfer from the poor to the rich in a single law since at least 1990. In fact, it would be the largest transfer *ever.* Reagan’s low-income cuts were MUCH smaller - and his tax cuts were done separately. And before him, nothing comes close.

Seems relevant.

THIS is the podcast you should be listening to this morning. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/p...

At a certain point this level of dishonesty should get people thrown out of polite society

Getting Hegseth to the situation room.

. @nolayingup.com raised a really interesting US Open question tonight: If you could only watch one players round tomorrow, whose would it be? Cop out to pick 3, but ranked: 1. Scheffler—can the clear world #1 get back in it? 2. Brooks—is he back from the dead (again)? 3. Spieth—See: Brooks

@ericswalwell.bsky.social urges all Americans to show up for No Kings Day this Saturday. “If we don’t show up, democracy dies” #NoKingsDay

Amazing how hard it is to write: “Police shoot at journalists.”

Maybe quit voting for their fucking bills then? Maybe quit confirming their nominees? Maybe shut down the Senate with the many procedural tools available to you? Maybe do something other than send sternly worded letters?

This is disgusting. If this is how they treat Alex Padilla, a United States Senator, how do you think they’ll treat you?

This is so smarmily disingenuous. We’re not talking about, like, some conscript kids who later went on to be honored for their contributions to science or literature. We’re talking about men who chose to LEAD an armed struggle for slavery, and are remembered & honored today for that very reason.

More of this

The right is shaping public perception of these protests just like it shaped public perception of the BLM protests, because it dominates the information ecosystem. The narratives it has spent years crafting & spreading are shaping how current events are interpreted.

Everyone who collaborated with the Trump administration deserves the kind of public humiliation that Vichy collaborators got. But instead they will probably all get CNN gigs like Scott Jennings.

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

An illegally parked mid-sized SUV?

Shocked that all it took was a fascist stunt for Trump to get Elon kissing his ring again.

This WSJ story about the decline in search traffic because of AI summaries is so grim. Every single outlet spent 15+ years contorting their coverage to cover the same things as everyone else trying to grab SEO, only for Google to rugpull them, just like social networks did. tinyurl.com/bdpzc399

We should never let ourselves get desensitized to this. It can’t be overstated how outrageously unpresidential and un-American it is for Donald Trump to speak to the US military like they’re his partisan personal army.

A crucial point. I’ll add: The paranoid accusations gain plausibility on the Right not because of empirical evidence, but because they adhere to the “Higher Truth” that governs rightwing politics: “Real” America is under siege from a fundamentally illegitimate coalition of leftist and alien enemies.

Once again, she & Tim Walz were right & they actually did all the Things Democrats Must Do & it didn’t work because of racism, misogyny, & a totally broken media/information environment.

123 points for the Oklahoma City Thunder That's tied for the most points scored by any team in a Finals game in the last five years.

Time to go in on Jake Tapper. www.sfgate.com/politics/art...

Good morning. Fuck Jake Tapper. www.sfgate.com/politics/art...

Cliff is doing a great job of highlighting Trump's obvious dementia. It's amazing to me that the press is ignoring it after what they did with Biden.

“The president’s solutions-focused approach to legal roadblocks necessitated thinking outside the constitutional box.”

One of the funniest characters in a series where their entire cast was putting up Shohei numbers

The Topps Griffey rookie all star card Tshirt tho 👌

“Tasted a little tear gas— tasted like fascism”

If I had to bet, I'd bet these tanks don't leave DC after the parade

the people putting themselves on the line to run off these thugs truly are the best of us

You don’t stop this shit by firing on the people, you stop it by having LAPD arrest ICE for kidnapping. This is a fucking disgrace by every government party involved.

I mock Democrats who swear inauthentically, but this is authentic. Kendall was the right choice for Texas Democrats.
