Trump: "We brought back free speech in America. Free speech." This is a flagrant lie. Today he told universities they would be punished if they allowed protests of or criticisms of Israel, a clear violation of the First Amendment.

Eileen and James Kramer were fired from their jobs at Lake Clark National Park in Alaska, even though they both recently received promotions. A judge has found the administration's firings illegal.

Jaccob Slavin was one of the top performers at the 4 Nations Face-Off. Over four games, Slavin averaged 23:16, was credited with nine blocks and had timely saves again and again versus the world's best. In fact, Team Canada did not score a single goal when Slavin was on the ice in either game.

I actually like Larkin…..he’s even on my fantasy team.

When Ae Bügger, 27, moved to Durham to take care of their grandmother, 92-year-old Margaret Teta, the pair discovered a delectable new way to spend—and document—their time together.

In exchange for his preferred number, Mikko Rantanen made a deal with Jack Roslovic. A new Rolex was the agreed upon cost, but the newest Carolina Hurricane had to rely on some outside help in order to keep his word. thehockeynews.com/nhl/carolina...

If you’re in line to sack Patrick Mahomes, STAY IN LINE

I hate both teams but watching Mahomes get sacked twice and throw an interception makes me happy.

I am a pediatrician who has been in private practice for 26 years. Whenever I have a patient with Chlamydia or other STIs I go to the CDC to take sure I am treating with the best antibiotic given current recommendations. This is the current CDC page.

www.forbes.com/sites/brucel... Cool. Yet another strain of bird flu. I’m so excited that we have a hiring freeze in the NIH and CDC. What could possibly be worrisome about that?!

I admittedly gasped regarding the truth behind this. 😢

I dare people to look through this list and tell me that they have NEVER benefited from at least one program on this list.

www.nytimes.com/2025/01/29/h... If you want to have control of these programs you should at least have a basic knowledge of how they work.

This is absolutely hilarious 😂

Talked to a couple of fans giving out game sheets last game: “Hey, you gave us Chatty’s goal sheet a couple games ago, and we got him to sign it!” “Was he like, ‘What’s this?’ when you handed it to him?” “Yeah, lol, we said that Wade gave it to us!” “Was he like, ‘Who’s Wade?’” “….yes #RaiseUp

A modern home in Pacific Palisades survived the fire while all the homes around it burned. It was luck, but also it was made to withstand a wildfire, and it did. I spoke with the architect who designed it, plus other architects, about designing for disaster: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Anyone want two tickets for the Canes alumni game tonight? I know its last minute, but I can't go now. Section 102, Row H, Seats 1 and 2.

Yup, nothing to worry about….Apropos of nothing, NC is seeing one of the largest increase in cases of whooping cough in quite a while. This can’t possibly be related right?! (Chart from the NYT)
