There can be only one

So much disinformation on this site tonight in the wake of the horrific Kirk murder, with conservatives cynically suggesting that all of the political violence in this country comes from the left. In fact it’s the opposite. Here are the facts for those with short memories: The man who targeted and killed Democratic state Rep Melissa Hortman was a Trump supporter. The man who targeted the home of Dem Governor Josh Shapiro was a Trump supporter. The men who wanted to hang Mike Pence on Jan 6th were Trump supporters. The man who targeted and killed the son of Obama-appointed District Judge Esther Salas was a Trump supporter. The man who tried to kidnap Nancy Pelosi and assaulted her husband was a Trump supporter. The men who were convicted trying to kidnap Dem Governor Gretchen Whitmer were Trump supporters. The man who sent pipe bombs to the homes of Obama and Biden was a Trump supporter. There is no equivalent or even similar list of Obama or Biden supporters who have carried out similar murders, attempted murders, or violent attacks.

@clivepafc It's been on a downward spiral for decades. Needs complete reform and out of the box thinking putting the supporters wants and needs as a priority. The dominance of the Old Firm has killed the competition.

There is a conversation to be had about Scottish Football. It’s not been a good week.

It’s a valid point. The rules are asymmetric.

@mixedknuts Muck Boots are what I'd recommend. Much more comfortable than a Hunter welly and cheaper as well.

Crowdsource: I have moved A BIT out into the countryside, and while I have previously only ever used hiking boots, I now apparently need wellies. Anyone have opinions on brands here? I am a stone cold wellies virgin.

@YankeeGunner @clivepafc Be honest. How many Merino shirts has Paul bought for this day?

kudos to @clivepafc for suggesting we delay today's pod slightly

@InsideArsenal89 Serge Gnabry

Give me an ‘out of nowhere’ signing you’d like to see Arsenal make. Don’t give me the names we see every 5 minutes ‘linked’ on Twitter. I’ll go Cunha.

@elonmusk Inflation is being caused by greedy energy companies.

Inflation is caused by the Federal government spending more than it earns, because they just print more money to make up the difference. To solve inflation, reduce wasteful government spending. Your tax dollars should be spent well, not poorly.

@LauraKirk12 We brought in Calafiori and Martin couldn't take the competition. Bottled it

Guys I'm sorry but I need to get something off my chest. Odegaard looks less handsome with the beard. I said what I said.

@LatteFirm Surplus to requirements and all that's gonna happen this season is we will tank his value. Should get him a loan now so he can build back something and then sell him next summer.

Fabio Vieira. Discuss.

@ryanthehate @AFCBtacticos Feels like a waste to have a good academy player be 3rd choice and not progressing in his career. Most Arsenal fans just want to see these homegrown lads flourish.

So many of Gen Z have such horrific understanding of the game… disillusioned by fifa simulations and bite size content. We’d be lucky to get Nketiah, one of the best and most compatible strikers on the market within our scope #AFCB

@Rodgersdusa John McGinn 🙌

Tell us..

@adamvoge I'm wondering if the integration of Nwaneri might mean we don't invest in a forward this summer. Trossard, Martinelli, Jesus, Saka, Vieira and Nwaneri can all cover those two wide roles.

As things stand it's looking like: Raya, Merino, Calafiori in for £95m (inclusive of add-ons) ESR, Nketiah out for about £51m (inclusive of add-ons) Pretty good IMO, definitely not done either

@timminchin Can we have another musical please Tim. 🙏

Yay! ❤️

@HLTCO Election years make people even more tribal unfortunately. The biggest accounts on this platform are fuelled by outrage so folk like Elon Musk have just become propaganda machines.

I think we’ve all grown used to Twitter being a pretty grim platform to scroll through over the years but the last couple of months have been at another level altogether. It feels like every time you open the app, it’s people screaming at each other from increasingly polarised points of view. The content popping up on my feed is so often fuelled by anger and hatred, the replies are even worse and it feels as though it’s likely to continue in that fashion for the foreseeable future. I don’t think there’s an answer for it; this just seems to be the new normal.

@deanjohnsonuk At a time when there is so much bad shit in the news, this tragedy really hurts me. I'm so shocked and upset by it, it feels so unfair and so horrific.

Finding it really hard to process the news in Southport. Absolutely heartbreaking. Dance spaces are a safe place for so many young people. I cannot fathom how/why something like this happens. Deepest love to all victims families, staff and first responders. 💔

@adamvoge We ideally need a new forward who adds to our offensive "threat". Someone who is comfortable playing wide. It's a shame Isak isn't available. If we got a new Left Forward it would allow us to play the likes of Martinelli, Gabi or Trossard on the right to rest Saka.

Here’s the thing: I think most would agree having another very good winger would be great. But “Saka backup” is not an attractive role to an actual good player. Saka’s starting 45+ games, embrace it. Any backup needs to be able to play elsewhere or they’re just a scrub.

@elonmusk There's nothing in the last two seconds that changes the clip you absolute madman. 😂

Hmm

@_PhilCosta Injuries really messed with his career momentum. Even in his few minutes last season he looked good. Hopefully he can find a home again at another club.

I’m gutted about things not working with Smith Rowe but it’s time for him to leave and play regular football. Starting against Chelsea that Boxing Day was such a sliding doors moment for Arteta and this project, but it hasn’t worked out - this Fulham move can suit everybody.

@YankeeGunner Narrator: "they were never seen again".

Big preseason tour for nwaneri and MLS. Will be very much on Mikel’s radar. Training with first team every day. Playing prestige friendlies. Good chance to earn trust for the season ahead.
