While I asked about the ideal roster size considering that the club is not part of the CONCACAF Champions Cup and the future of the US Open Cup up in the air (somewhere between 25 to 27, by the way), I think Ernst Tanner gave us a hint at what Leagues Cup looks like next year: "The simple answer is there is no ideal number. With a salary cap, you always need to fit in what you can fit in. And of course, then there is a number coming out. But in recent seasons where we had less tournaments, and by the way, this will be the case in this season as well because we all know we don't play the Champions Cup, but we are also out of Leagues Cup. And I think it's even a positive for us in this moment, as I know that our fans don't overly love our Leagues Cup, but we are definitely not getting so many midweek games and have more time to really focus on training and development. And that's the positive note. But it will be somewhere between 25 and 27 players. Yeah, that's a good size. And yeah, I'm emphasize on the quality anyway than having 30 or even more players." #doop #MLS #Leasguescup #USOpenCup cc: @opencup 📹: Philadelphia Union

LMAO the “X” rebrand is trash. Nothing is wrong with us for changing it back to the bird/Twitter because this is still Twitter regardless of what the world’s dumbest billionaire calls it. What’s wrong with your life that it bothers you that we change it back if we don’t like it?

Holy shit this is INCREDIBLE work from @ByDonkeys. And bonus points for projecting the entire thing on @Tesla headquarters, effectively turning @elonmusk’s building’s most visible exterior side into a cinema screen to broadcast the tale of his corruption and political malfeasance

“Inflation”—which a two second Google search can confirm HAS BEEN BROUGHT UNDER CONTROL BY THE BIDEN-HARRIS ADMINISTRATION after TRUMP sent it SKYROCKETING via sabotaging our COVID response—made him vote to deport his own mom. #LeopardsEatingFaces

My MAGA neighbor five minutes ago: “I just read that tariffs are going to raise prices for stuff. I don’t get it. I thought China was going to pay them.” I explained how tariffs work. I wish you could see the look on the guy’s face when it sunk in. So much ignorance out there.

ALERT: Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-FL) releases statement, "The day before the election, I was notified by the Margate Police Dept., located in my Congressional district, about a potential plot on my life. The individual in question was arrested not far from my home. He is a former felon who was in possession of a rifle, a suppressor and body armor. Found with him was a manifesto that, among other things, included antisemitic rhetoric and only my name on the ‘target’ list.”

I’m listening to Republican strategist Sarah Longwell on NPR talking about public opinion of Trump’s tyrannical posture and she just said: “When I ask voters in focus groups if they think Donald Trump is an authoritarian, the #1 response by far is, ‘what’s an authoritarian?’”

Well, I guess the consequences of this election are already being felt. A story about Trump voters in Pennsylvania. The owner of a large company called a meeting for all his employees. He informed them that they won't be getting their Christmas bonuses this year. He explained that the company has to buy a year's worth of product before the Trump's tariffs hit in January. They said they thought the tariffs were paid by the foreign companies. He then explained to his employees that the tariffs are paid by the American companies who import these foreign goods. Sometimes, you get exactly what you vote for.

One of my GCs I partner w is a Trump guy. We won a new job that will start next year. I just told him I won’t honor today’s materials’ pricing past January. He asked why. I said tariffs could cause 100% increase in COGS or more. That I would send new pricing in the spring. He said but I have to sign the fixed price contract w them tomorrow! And there you have it! One lesson learned two days too late! Too bad. So sad.

There are rumors that Govt employees, including some senior military officers, will be required to sign a “loyalty pledge.” As a reminder, the only thing you are loyal to is the Constitution. Especially military

Biden made banks stop surprising you with hidden charges. That's gone now. $35 insulin is gone. Medicare negotiating drug prices--gone. EPA, HHS, Dept of Energy--gone. All consumer protections--gone. Dept of Labor. National Hurricane Center. NOAA. National Parks. 1/6

If you're heading to the polls tomorrow: Be prepared for long lines. Bring hydration. Make sure your phone is charged. Come with a friend or family member if possible. Have the number of your state's voter protection hotline on your phone. If you feel intimidated, threatened, or unsafe, call that number and/or local police (who should already be onsite). If you arrive by the close of polls stay in line! We need every vote in every district in every state! The Senate and the House are as critical as the Presidency and local races matter. Let's make sure we stick the landing and finish with no vote left undeclared and counted. Democracy, for the win.
