I hate it when pundits, journos, legal figures lead with "Is it legal?" or "Can Trump be stopped?" or "Are we slipping into autocracy?" Lead with: •THIS IS NOT LEGAL •TRUMP MUST BE STOPPED •AUTOCRACY IS HERE Sheesh.

At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.

The Knicks would have to buy Kidd out his contract. They are better off with a different coach. Idk why they and Dallas continue to swap players like cheap floozies. I am not sold on Kid!
