With its credibility swaying in the wake of a betting scandal, the very last thing the league needed was to be in business with a prediction platform

This is just astonishingly great reporting.
All of the crises the White House has claimed over the last 14 months were planned in advance. All of them.
And however much contempt you have for media outlets who reverently relayed Trump's claim to have no relation to Project 2025, it isn't enough.
Hegseth is an awe-inspiring level of monumental loser, a scared little boy playing fantasy in the safety of his bedroom, desperately hoping that talking tough means being tough, that hurting the innocent will prove his worth. It won't. We're taking power back and jailing you for life, you clown.
Such a brilliant final touch from Martínez
The burning oil refinery in Tehran tonight.
This ancient city of 10 million people is being annihilated by the US and Israel.

Wow -- as first spotted by @BadFoxGraphics on X, Fox & Friends this morning used *old footage of a previous dignified transfer* to mislead their audience about the fact that Trump wore a baseball cap during the one yesterday

Agree 1000%! The midfield is exciting. This is a game we would have drawn or dropped last year
A well-fought match. Credit to both sides. Two playoff teams for sure
Given schedule congestion and upcoming tournaments, it's so important to pile up points at the beginning of the season, and LAFC have done it. I feel like we'll be susceptible on corners and set pieces all year, but no team is perfect... MDS, don't forget your bench!
Martínez grows by leaps and bounds every game--how long can we keep La Joya before Europe comes calling? It's so good that Bouanga and Son are not the only goal scorers--it makes everyone more dangerous...
I absolutely love it when LAFC plays with possession. They're creative and dominant, they keep the defense fresh, and they play with a fun identity. Credit to FCD for a well-played game--they had real chances. Delgado was exceptional tonight. Tafari and Porteous are so friggin' calm, I love it...

MAGA is whatever Trump says it is. The amount of contempt these people have for Trump voters far outpaces the invented contempt that "liberal elites" are supposed to have for them.

i silently screamed for a whole minute after watching this, clutched my face, this is so disgusting it boggles the mind
war as play, war as culture, war as spectacle and show
Fascinated by how little the 2026 WC has changed the soccer media landscape in the US. Was always talked about as a crucial, job-creating moment — nobody out there is hiring, and even the friggin rights holder to the World Cup is making freelance hires instead of full-time ones.
Does this bag of poison gas ever shut the fuck up

Emmanuel Damas, 56, died in ICE custody on Monday.
Damas came to the U.S. from Haiti seeking asylum. After six months in ICE custody—the last four at CoreCivic's Florence Correctional Center—he died from complications from a tooth infection.
A tooth infection.

we appear to have four competing fascist movements jockeying for control: blood & soil nazism under miller and hegseth, darwinian ecofascism from rfk, technofascism under vance and musk, and one Big Wet Hitler who understands the true animating core of the american volk is a deep love for shopping
In a just world, this shameless groveling would be mocked and pilloried and Kudlow would be out of work. But bootlicking = financial success in a dying, immoral, cynical, craven U.S.
It was supposed to be a normal day at school for dozens of girls, but now they're dead
We shut that petty fool down and he's still pissed about it
I’m actually not sure we can come back from “prediction markets for war crimes”, as a society. I think this might be it for us.
As US and Israeli bombs fell on Iran this weekend, bettors on Polymarket — where $529 million was traded on contracts tied to the timing of the strikes — were cashing in
I know it’s almost impossible to say this on Bluesky without getting a strike, but if you seriously cared about peace in the Middle East, it’s Israeli leadership that you need to remove — ideally by an international legal process — while keeping the US from destabilizing it even further.
LA: No War On Iran. 2 pm, City Hall.
The bombing of Iran, the starving of Cuba, the waging of genocide in Palestine. It's time to let go of the idea the role of the US is to enforce a rules-based order, and instead recognize the incredible harm our country unleashes around the world, and take meaningful action to reduce it.
