Not to jinx Como today, but I believe they’ll mess Man United up badly.
My prediction is 4:1 to Como.
Next, United will be linked with Cesc Fabregas as a potential replacement for Michael Carrick.
The world is just too predictable man.

Texas was built by hope. By people who had no business believing — but believed anyway.
To every Texan who’s ever wondered if anyone in power is paying attention: We are taking our state back.
Because a little bit of hope is a dangerous thing.

The maximum amount an individual can donate to a candidate is $3500.
Elon Musk just donated $7 million to one Republican, because Citizens United gave a loophole to billionaires to buy elections.
Overturn Citizens United.
NEW — Elon Musk has directed more than $7 million to help reelect Ohio Republican Sen. Jon Husted, per the Ohio Capital Journal.

Ten years ago today.
In just the last few days: Trump made a deal for the U.S. to buy Russian diesel, an economic lifeline for Putin; he and Elon Musk blamed each other for an order that slowed down Starlink satellite connectivity over Ukraine, hampering the country's defenses during a devastating Russian attack; and Trump waived sanctions on Russia that Congress, led by his late friend Lindsey Graham, had pushed for.
Now, Putin has proposed a summit with Trump and Xi to decide Ukraine’s fate for them, bulldoze a century of international cooperation, and frame Russia as an equal to the U.S. and China.
We’ll see if Putin’s puppet continues to dance on his strings.

Appears to be absolutely MASSIVE protests all across the US yesterday and this platform is so skewed to the Trump/Putin side that this is the first I've seen or heard of it.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The montage uses recycled footage from larger 2025 and March 2026 No Kings protests, not Oct 17 2026 Vote Early events. Those were smaller localized gatherings (hundreds to thousands per city) focused on early voting, not the massive crowds shown.

The presidential pardon power is out of control on both sides of the aisle, and I think it should end.
There are literally people who are pardon brokers who are being paid $300,000 to get close to Trump and to buy a pardon.
Ban the presidential pardon.

Of all the many evil betrayals I’ve seen in the last 60 years I’ve been alive, I’m struggling to think of any that match what Trump and Musk did to innocent Ukrainian citizens while Putin was sending missiles this way. A trio to live on in infamy well after I am gone

We don’t use Starlink for our responses inside Russia. We use Starlink to intercept jet-powered “shaheds” that attack our civilians and kill families.
Starlink wasn’t turned off – its speed was reduced. And when the speed was reduced, we were unable to intercept a certain number of jet-powered “shaheds.” We couldn’t use a tool that helps protect people. That’s very painful and frustrating.
We also use Starlink for mid-range strikes against enemy military targets in our temporarily occupied territories. We couldn’t do that when the restrictions were in place. And third, what matters most is people. Our warriors, who spend weeks and months on the front line, receive food and water delivered by drones using Starlink.
Has the speed been fully restored to what it was before? No. Is it being restored now? Yes.

Beyond irresponsible. What part of enforcing a law passed 86-11 by the Senate does the President and his advisors not understand? It’s unconscionable that this administration is capitulating to a Russian dictator who illegally invaded Ukraine and butchers innocent civilians every single day. If the President wants to actually bring down energy prices, he can do it by solving the Iran problem, not by doing a solid for Vladimir Putin.

the crowd absolutely erupts when Carney says the Pacific Link pipeline will reduce Canada's dependence on the U.S.
Mark Carney: "Careful. They might think that's election interference. They're a little touchy down there. We're not. We're getting on with it."

Of course, it is illegal. He does not have the authority. Why do we have laws and Congress then?

Gianni Infantino, the Greatest ! An astonishing performance in Zurich: Infantino, apparently a good Catholic, confesses his sins and then promises 25 million. Confession, indulgence and absolution — all in one appearance! The Pope would love it. But in football, as in the Church, credibility cannot be bought. #Fifa #GianniInfantino #indulgence #absolution #ThePope

Me and Ilhan Omar are far apart policy wise. I’m pro life, she’s pro abortion. I’m pro 2A, she’s pro gun control. And on and on.
But can someone tell me how pretending to get ready to deport Ilhan Omar is going to bring gas down under $2, make health insurance freaking affordable, make a family’s weekly grocery bill make sense, and stop sending our beloved military off to fight for another fucking foreign war???
People are so sick and tired of the bullshit.
When you dumb mf’ers at the WH actually release the Epstein files and lock up the pedophiles and rapists you all hang out with, then we will start paying attention.
Until then 🖕.

If Trump and Republicans had worked to lower cost of living, lowered costs of gas and diesel, stayed out of wars, and released the Epstein files without a fight, Republicans would have won for the next 4-6 years.
Instead Republicans may not win for the next 10 years because they all cheerleaded Trump as Trump bullied everyone internationally using tariffs as a bludgeon which in turn really hurt Americans and drove inflation, started an unprovoked war with Iran skyrocketing gas and diesel prices, and refused to release the Epstein files so voraciously that he posted that anyone who wanted the files are now his “past supporters.”
And Republicans are still silent cowards totally oblivious to how bad they have burned their credibility with Americans, especially with the younger generations.
Currently there is not a single Republican Presidential hopeful that could win in 2028.

Russia backed Brexit, Trump & the truckers’ blockade. As today’s disrupted bot activity shows, Moscow supports the GOP ahead of mid-terms; the AfD, Farage, Le Pen & others in Europe; & Alberta’s separatists.
Allied democracies must end Russian malign influence for good.

It’s not just Donald Trump. It’s the Republican Party.
