@GMA @PierreTABC They should not have shot him. Just take him into custody and drop him off at UoW campus admin building. With his knife. And ignore any 911 calls.

Growing tension in Madison, Wisconsin as the victim in the deadly police shooting is identified. @PierreTABC reports.

@Sierra321776585 @redsteeze OK, I guess it's good that women's basketball has a fan.
English
@Ephippus2024 @redsteeze I like women’s basketball and want to watch Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever win lots of championships!
English
To prove Sophie Cunningham wrong, I would actually love to see a male player try to join a WNBA team, force the league to reject him, and have the league explain in explicit detail as to why.
English
And yet:
- We are in more wars.
- Everything costs more.
- Americans have less money, but Trump has more.
- We are the laughingstock of the world.
- We are more divided than ever before.
- The government has never been more corrupt.
But hey, he kept some brown people out of the country.

By far Trump’s biggest accomplishment…
He closed the border in 48 hours and it still isn’t being discussed enough. After 4 straight years of record-breaking illegal immigration, we now have the fewest illegal crossings in 50+ years.
English
@Sierra321776585 @redsteeze They’d probably let the guy in and ruin the league permanently!
I'm missing the problem with that.
English
@redsteeze No!
Please.
The wnba has enough problems!
(The league commissioner is a weak leftist who caves to pressure on a regular basis. They’d probably let the guy in and ruin the league permanently!)

@herdesertplaces Rapinoe... the stupid cunt who led the team that got crushed by 15 year old boys. That Rapinoe? 🤣🤣
English
40 years from now, we will still be talking about Megan Rapinoe's impact on the game and American culture. Cunningham will be remembered for about 10 years after she retires, and only as a meme and podcast host.

Parents, pray every day that your daughters grow up to be like Sophie Cunningham and not Megan Rapinoe!

Conservatives are not well represented in academia because conservatism is, for the most part, the ideology of the incurious. Abortion is bad because the Bible said so. Immigrants are bad because Fox News said so. Capitalism is good because Reagan said so
Moody Blueliner@MoodyBlueliner
@kayteterry That actually is a huge problem in academia. I’m pro-choice, but there are a ton of serious intellectual arguments against legal abortion, both religious and secular. Students should be exposed to them…especially the ones who grew up in deep blue areas.

@DianefromNj @AndrewDesiderio You don't think, so don't go there, Karen.

@AndrewDesiderio What happens when Trump can’t do something himself? I think he pulls the emergency national security EO switch.

Longtime GOP operative weighs in on latest WH-Thune drama…
“Trump knows full well that he can’t flip these votes. Hell, he personally came to the Capitol to berate Senate Republicans into voting for SAVE, and he left empty handed. Look at who we’re talking about — Murkowski, McConnell, Tillis, and Collins — all members who he’s savaged at one point or another, and now he needs their help. All of this comes back to one thing: What happens when Trump can’t do something himself? He blames someone else. John Thune is Mr. Someone Else.”
English
@AndrewDesiderio Tell that GOP operative to go fuck him/her self.
The only reason President Trump got involved is because fucking Thune is a worthless 💩

One of these woman changed the trajectory of sports by spearheading equal pay. The other.., has a podcast

@LuchaConMacho @theprophecc There are no MEN in the league.
FIFY.
And a decent HS boys team would be WNBA champs. Not likely to lose a game. Like the US wimmins world champ soccer team that got beat by a boys junior pick-up team.
English
@theprophecc I agree with your comment here. My question is are we sure the league and its players don’t feel the same way she does? There are no trans woman in the league.
English
There should be no space in the WNBA where a player feels empowered to be transphobic & there should be consequences for this matter. Trans lives matter!
English
This is one of most repugnant things that’s ever come out of her mouth and it’s quite fascinating(not really)how she discusses protecting little girls in sports from transwomen(who are not a threat) but she’s got no smoke publicly for the MEN in power who are actual predators.
James Boyd@RomeovilleKid
#Fever guard Sophie Cunningham on her trans comments in ESPN: “I said what I said. I think it’s kind of common sense. … I think it’s really important to protect children.” “I don’t dislike anyone. … I’m there to love, but I’m also there to love biological women. …”
English
@smaxbrown @AGHamilton29 Open the WTC to "men" and no biological woman will ever earn a dollar playing tennis.
English
@AGHamilton29 Truth is truth.
Alec Lace@AlecLace
Sophie Cunningham & Serena Williams drop common sense on men’s vs women’s sports Serena: The men are a lot faster, they serve harder, they hit harder. It’s a completely different sport. Sophie: Men are just stronger, bigger, athletic. Only Democrats still cling to the delusion
English
This is the position of 70+% of Americans. It’s also common sense.
The fact that so many in the press and associated institutions treat it as something morally abhorrent and feel the need to grill a female athlete for voicing it shows how disconnected they are from reality.
Clay Travis@ClayTravis
Sophie Cunningham gets grilled by WNBA reporters for saying men shouldn’t be able to play women’s sports. Refuses to back down. “I said what I said.” Eloquently defends women’s sports as woke reporters press her. Love all of this. Well done @sophaller.
English
@SailenGayen6 @AGHamilton29 I have lots of empathy for biological girls who have a man come into their locker room to shower. I also have a 45ACP.
English
@AGHamilton29 If the majority says “common sense,” maybe we should start measuring empathy on the same scale.

@GreerDonal90392 @TheAliceSmith Oh come on. What's 50MM or so here-or-there? 😂

Communism is a bourgeois luxury belief that got out of hand and murdered 100+ million people.
Thomas Sowell Daily@DailySowell
“Most people who read ‘The Communist Manifesto’ probably have no idea that it was written by a couple of young men who had never worked a day in their lives, and who nevertheless spoke boldly in the name of ‘the workers.’” — Thomas Sowell

A 7-year study of 3,900 social science papers found that only ~50% could be replicated.
There was significant variation across fields, however.
While more than 60% of political science & econ papers were replicated, only ~25% of sociology & 0% of education papers were.

Once the full weight of Palestinian war crimes and atrocities are known, how do we go back to living beside people who would excuse this?
There is no place in a modern, ethical society for people - any people, not just Muslims - to defend or excuse this inhumanity.
If you don't understand this, then I feel sorry for you.
English
Mark Ruffalo says he’s done talking to Jewish actors.
Hey Mark, if that’s really how you feel, maybe you should stop playing the Hulk too.
After all, the character was created by two Jewish legends, Stan Lee and Jack Kirby.
Or is that different because it works in your favor?
Pretty hypocritical.
English
I've been making the same point... once the full weight of Israeli war crimes and atrocities are known, how do we go back to living beside people who would excuse this?
There is no place in a modern, ethical society for people - any people, not just Jews - to defend or excuse this inhumanity.
If you don't understand this, then I feel sorry for you.
