@ianbremmer Has he stated the asking price? Or will it be an auction?

@DrewSmith_33 @davidfrum @JoshKraushaar Ambassador Huckabee is an evangelical, fundamentalist Christian nationalist. Apparently, that’s what his religion wants to happen. Try to figure out which Christian religion you are against.

@davidfrum @JoshKraushaar Nope. It’s not antisemitic actually to question why the US ambassador to Israel is publicly stating that Israel has a divine right to holocaust the entire Middle East if they feel like it because the Bible told them so.

It's gotten to the point where a podcaster can be accused of antisemitism just for saying that Israel is the cause of all the world's wars.

MrBeast reveals once enough airlines start using Starlink, he’ll only book flights that have it “Oh this flight has an extra hour layover? I don’t care, there’s Starlink. I’ll sit in the back of the plane if it gives me Starlink. I really don’t care, Starlink is amazing” “Most people listening probably haven’t used it but for reference when I filmed in Antarctica the only way to get any signal was Starlink. We had this four hour drive in the middle of Africa, you put Starlink on top of the car and you get perfect signal the entire ride” “And I think what Elon Musk is accomplishing with SpaceX, there’s no doubt it’s going to fundamentally progress humanity in unfathomable ways. In our lifetime, someone’s going to go to Mars thanks to SpaceX, I really do believe that”

@RealGlenMacnow Can’t read all the comments, but from the repetitiveness I think mine is original. Barney Miller.

Wife and I are debating the best workplace-based sitcoms of all time. I say: 1) Cheers 2) Taxi 3) The Office 4) Mary Tyler Moore Show. What do you say?

@TheAtlantic This will fit perfectly with his upcoming civil war.

@NextGenStats @brianros1 A great stat. Throwing a 52 yard pass TD pass in the 20 yard red zone.

Caleb Williams' 14-yard game-tying touchdown pass to Cole Kmet traveled 51.2 yards in the air, the longest completed pass by air distance in the red zone in the NGS era (since 2016). 🔹 Completion Probability: 17.8% #LARvsCHI | #DaBears

@CoachDaveHuf @MikeSielski Don’t you mean 🥸?

@aurkowitz @MikeSielski How do I say "I'm on old man without saying I'm an old man?" - says another old man! 😎

The word that the #Eagles kept repeating in the locker room after Sunday night's loss was "execution." The players should have executed better all season. "If there are multiple players saying that," Jordan Mailata said, "why don't you believe us?" Here's why: THREAD

@BrookeNBCS @brianros1 Sirianni didn’t have the knowledge or the guts to make that final call. Up til now I haven’t thought that Sirianni should be fired. Refusing to take that responsibility means he should go.

The perfect visual for how everyone felt all dang season. Poor Jalen.

@yarotrof @anneapplebaum He’s putting the cart before the horse. trump has to conquer a country before he can introduce the MAGA social programs that strip science away from health care in the name of ‘patient autonomy’.

Not even bothering to spell correctly the surname of the scolded vassal chieftain. It’s Nina Warken, and Germany is a sovereign country with a higher life expectancy than the United States, but who cares.

@VinnysCorner1 Tommy MacDonald and Pete Retzlaff.

Age yourself by naming an NFL Wide Receiver you grew up watching. I'll start, Cris Carter…

Hurts has thrown a lot of bad passes.

@brianros1 Yes. Why should that play take a long count?

John put it more succinctly🤣

@NormOrnstein It’s better to show my ‘perfect’ score of 20 than to show a picture of someone old enough to achieve it.

@JonnyPage9 Sirianni gave up play calling in 2021 because he wasn’t good at it. So there is no alternative but to keep using Patullo.

I don't really understand why this is so complicated to understand. The offense has been designed terribly. All season long. Jalen Hurts has had a below average season, but has been pretty awful the past couple of weeks. I trust Hurts more because I've seen him compete & win at the very highest level. I do not trust Patullo because his offense has been terribly designed all season long. There needs to be a change at OC, even if it is not all his fault. I think this is incredibly obvious.

@ChombaBupe I made that point continually for my entire 50 year IT career. I hate references to coding instead of programming. I don’t believe AI can effectively replace human intelligence for systems development, especially the QA part.

Software development is not about writing code it's about solving problems. Anyone selling software development as merely churning out more lines of code per minute, either has never shipped any real product or is being paid to market coding models.

@BrianKarem “Peace in our time”.

NOW: (From Gaggle on AF1) POTUS on concessions Russia will have to make for peace. "They're making concessions. They're going to stop fighting and they're not going to take any more land."

@JakeNieten @RBReich While I would be happy if citizens United were eliminated, the Supremacy Clause plus this SCOTUS would prevent it from happening for decades to come.

Robert… you’re not “getting rid” of Citizens United. You’re just pretending you can. Citizens United is a Supreme Court ruling based on the First Amendment, not a policy Congress can casually undo. The only two ways to overturn it are: • a new Supreme Court ruling • a constitutional amendment That’s it. There is no shortcut. There’s no “simple workaround.” What you’re pitching is political theater dressed up as a legal strategy. And while you’re at it, maybe mention that Democrats rely heavily on the very same dark money you claim to oppose. ActBlue, Arabella Advisors, the Sixteen Thirty Fund, abortion activists, and climate PACs pour hundreds of millions into elections every cycle. You never complain about that part. Citizens United wasn’t a Republican invention. It affirmed a basic principle: The government does not get to decide who is allowed to speak. You’re not trying to fix corruption. You’re trying to control political speech.

We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way to get rid of Citizens United. Let me explain. robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get-r…

Eagles have collapsed in this half, offense and defense.

Barkley’s ‘block’ makes me think fondly of Brian Westbrook.
