NFL now promoting unsportsmanlike conduct — not as a penalty but as a virtue.
Did we miss somebody? 😅 @Lions

If you had Nicki Minaj and Jon Husted, you are three names away from shouting BINGO!

Gavin Newsom has something most Democrats don’t have: A powerful contact list that helped raise more than $6.8 million this cycle. He received 305,000 contributions this cycle, with $22.47 being the average donation, his aides say. thehill.com/policy/technolog…

Most important. It’s the Senate, not the state of Alaska, or the Justice Department or the Supreme Court that decides who is seated as a member. It’s right there in the Constitution under Article I, Section 5.
The Department of Justice does not seek to stop any ballot from being cast or to stop the certification of Alaska's election. This litigation seeks to ensure that after Alaskans cast their ballots, they are preserved in a manner so that only Alaska's governing officials have the information necessary to make a determination as to whether Alaskan voters were confused or mislead. The lawsuit was written by Justice Department attorneys and the Department did not coordinate with any campaign or candidate, but rather relied solely on federal law.

RFK Jr. suggests Americans can more easily afford groceries if they start eating liver instead of beef: "Most of the cheap cuts of meat are very inexpensive. You can buy liver or the cheap cuts."

Winner of a write-in campaign says Alaskans are pretty savvy when it comes to voting. No one has ever had better receipts.
Alaskans don’t need any help voting for their preferred candidates, and the State of Alaska has already handled this by clearly distinguishing the candidates on this year’s ballot. The Department of Justice should never have filed this lawsuit. apnews.com/article/alaska-se…

Some candidates choose to use air sirens, not dog whistles. The strategy suggests there are holes in the hypothesis that all dems would come home no matter what. But at this point, he’s not losing any votes from Ds on this topic — most are with him; some never will be.
El-Sayed now has the distinction of utilizing two of the most prominent antisemitic podcasters as surrogates -- on the far left and far right:

Brewers taught me about agony & thrill of sports. I was at last game of the ‘82 season for O’s & Harvey’s Wallbangers. O’s had come back to tie MIL for first. Palmer/Sutton in decider. MIL won. Brutal. But O’s won WS in ‘83 & Nats in ‘19. Brewers still haven’t won. Go BrewCrew!

Don’t know if that’s a crappy slider or a crappy cutter, but Miz has twice hung a little breaking ball and had it absolutely tattooed right at an infielder — at ‘em balls. If you’re Tampa, maybe leave the heater alone and wait for the slop.

WON’T GET FOOLED AGAIN — Back in 2018, I remember the OK-5 moment. No one had any idea that the Oklahoma City based district was in play. No one. Save maybe Mike Bloomberg, who put $400K in. But the ruby red seat flipped in a blue wave. Local Ds hope history repeats. Story 👇

You can't get much more comical than hiring a branch of the RON RIVERA tree to bail out Dan Quinn. This franchise is quicksand. Dan Snyder's worst years were 3-13. Let's see if these guys win 3.
The #Commanders have hired Steve Wilks to work with the defensive coaches under Dan Quinn and Daronte Jones, per me and @RapSheet. The decision to hire Wilks was made last month. He started last week. Wilks will help with game planning. He won't be with the team on game days.

Maryland fires football coach Mike Locksley. As a Terrapin fan, I applaud the overdue decision. As a Commanders fan, I am terrified the Washington NFL squad will add him to its staff. I fear that because they are always so creative in finding new ways to humiliate themselves.

The Vivek ad with Acton's mom suggests he believes he's on a trajectory to lose a reasonably close race & can't move the needle. A candidate with a lead would never do that, nor would one who thought he was cooked. But as in dating, desperation often seals a hopeful's fate.

DJT was asked about it in '25 and said he didn't know it was antisemitic, said he thought of it as any high-interest lender. Hard for him to say now that he doesn't know, since he was asked about it. He also uses shyster, which is not anti-semitic, but many people think it is.
ADL's statement on Trump using the word "shylock" in 2026 v. ADL's statement on Trump using the word "shylock" in 2025. A key difference

The game ended as it should have. Fire Dan Quinn, many people are saying.

Imagine if DC had kicked the field goal on fifth down in the first half. Now, they would be three points down. And they would have kicked a game-tying field goal.

Face mask on the offense — correct call — but how many helmet to helmet hits by Niners have done uncalled? Is it because our guys are wearing helmets that Niners are allowed to do that on every play?
