@jeremymbarr Athletic is about to throw the bag at Ian Rapoport

In a Slack message to staffers at The Athletic, executive editor Steven Ginsberg confirmed that Dianna Russini has resigned. "While I can't share the details of our investigation into Dianna's conduct, I want to emphasize that the leadership of The Athletic has taken this matter seriously from the moment we learned about it," he wrote.

@SlySportsNewz @PlayoffBoundNYK And that’s what’s wrong with NBA viewership

@PlayoffBoundNYK More people would rather watch KD v LeBron over Jokic v Ant, despite the latter being better hoops

@BatshitBlacky @JenniferJJacobs @VP So? It’s their country. They can build it in your mother’s ass

@Beavis2026 @JenniferJJacobs @VP LoL is that why they built their enrichment facilities in a mountain and restricted access?

"I wish him luck. I think it's going to go pretty quickly," Trump says when asked what he told @VP Vance before he left for these Iran talks in Pakistan. Trump said: It's JD and Steve and Jared -- we have a good team. Asked what he wants out of a deal, Trump said: No nuclear weapon, number one. No nuclear weapon, that's 99% of it. On the Strait of Hormuz, "that'll open up automatically," he said. "We will have that open fairly soon."

@DropSiteNews The United States doesn't know what they are negotiating because they've completely lost their way with this war. The S of Hormuz was OPEN!! What a disaster for Trump. Now JD Vance is going to go there and do what? They have lost all the leverage.

🗞️ AXIOS: “We still don’t agree on what we are negotiating about.” Vice President JD Vance departed Friday for Pakistan to lead negotiations with Iran on the nuclear issue and ending the war. 🔸 “This is a big deal for JD. He is going to the Super Bowl,” one U.S. official told Axios. 🔸 Vance reportedly asked Trump for the role. Another reason he was chosen: deep mistrust between Tehran and U.S. envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, after earlier talks were followed by U.S.-Israeli strikes during negotiations. Both are accompanying Vance in this round of talks as well. 🔸 Hammering out a deal could take weeks if not months and would likely require extending the current two-week ceasefire. That won’t happen unless Vance returns with a “concrete deliverable,” a U.S. official said. 🔸 “We still don’t agree on what we are negotiating about,” another U.S. official admitted. 🔸 Trump, frustrated by Iran’s refusal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, is threatening to resume the war if talks fail. One source said Iran’s actions are “embarrassing the guy.”

@scrowder Steven he’s locking up American citizens at the behest of a foreign government. He’s unleashed a police force on American citizens. If Biden was doing this, you’d be calling him a Marxist communist. Please shut the fuck up.

Let's be clear: I think Trump has made missteps. I think he's imperfect. But I genuinely believe he is one of the most important strongholds holding back a Marxist communist revolution that almost happened.

@PoliticalTisms Tax dollars will go boom regardless of the outcome here lol

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump just issued a WARNING to Iran following reports that they’re charging a TOLL for ships traversing the Strait of Hormuz and only allowing a small number of ships to pass per day “There are reports that Iran is charging fees to tankers going through the Hormuz Strait — They better not be and, if they are, they better stop now!”

@Schandillia @Andromeda_1957 Listen you dot head

@Andromeda_1957 A lot. Jealous?

Israel signed peace with Egypt in 1979. Not a single Israeli bomb on Egypt since then. Israel signed peace with Jordan in 1994. Not a single Israeli bomb on Jordan since then. Israel signed peace with UAE in 2020. Not a single Israeli bomb on UAE since then (not that it did before). Israel signed peace with Bahrain in 2020. Not a single Israeli bomb on Bahrain since then (not that it did before). Israel signed peace with Morocco in 2020. Not a single Israeli bomb on Morocco since then (not that it did before). Israel signed peace with Sudan in 2020. Not a single Israeli bomb on Sudan since then (not that it did before).

@SmiteThee7 @amez808 @KatiePavlich The same statement was also reposted on Trump’s truth social.

@amez808 @KatiePavlich Uh what I posted is not a wishlist for ending the wa. It is the statement of the terms of the ceasefire by the pm of Pakistan who mediated the ceasefire.

Iran again acting in bad faith. They’re keeping the Strait of Hormuz closed, citing Israeli strikes against their terror army Hezbollah in Lebanon (which could have been prevented if the UN did their job years ago), but Lebanon was never part of the ceasefire deal.

@rickaren81 @CurtMills Islamic terrorism lmao .. the U.S. put an Al-Qaeda leader in charge of Syria and there’s clear evidence of Nethanyahu green light funding for Hamas. These stupid ass remarks don’t work anymore you old hag.

@CurtMills just told Megyn Kelly Israel, who has been fighting a heroic war on Islamic terrorism for the last 2 1/2 years, they were psychopathic and terrorists. You are a very stupid and morally bankrupt person.

@WeTheBrandon Because Israel is bombing Lebanon. We must control these Zio maniacs

Ruh-roh.

@RotoPat The U.S. had no real objectives and were bamboozled into the war by Israel.

Did they ever even say what the objectives were? Presumably they actually had a few, but they never really bothered sharing them
