@ELBainter @VoicesofWW2 They cheated by avoiding how to fight like real men because they didn’t have the balls to fight the French 🤣🤣.

86 years ago today, Winston Churchill, Prime Minister for exactly 5 days, was woken by his phone ringing at 7:30 a.m.
It was Paul Reynaud, the French Premier. His voice was hollow.
"We have been defeated. We are beaten; we have lost the battle."
Churchill, half-asleep, couldn't process it:
"Surely it can't have happened so soon?"
Reynaud: "The front is broken near Sedan. They are pouring through in great numbers with tanks and armoured cars."
The German invasion was 5 days old. The "impassable" Ardennes forest had just funneled seven Panzer divisions through France's weakest hinge.
The next day, Churchill flew to Paris. He asked General Gamelin a single question:
"Where is the strategic reserve?"
Gamelin shrugged. "Aucune."
None. France had no reserve. There was nothing behind the line that had just broken.
Churchill later wrote that this was one of the greatest shocks of his life. The country he'd grown up believing had the finest army in Europe had already lost the war. They just didn't know it yet.
Six weeks later, Paris fell.

@Rage_Baiter69 @FoxNews there’s a Supreme Court in every state, then there’s a Supreme Court for the entire USA
English

@FoxNews So the Supreme Court denied the Supreme Court?

@frank_seravalli @GoldenKnights Fine his ass but don’t take the pick away Jesus Christ

Wow. The #NHL has docked the Vegas @GoldenKnights a second round pick for a “flagrant” violation of the league’s media policy.
Coach John Tortorella has also been fined $100,000.

@bears_aware The rare time I do not respect the hustle. This is just invasive and straight up annoying.

@GinoHard_ @FAN590 The hit wasn’t suspension worthy, especially in the 2nd round of the playoffs. It was a joke. Good on Torts

@DiscussingFilm All female casts are great for movies like the devil meets prada. That sort of movie drives female viewship and women to the box office.
Swapping genders in an action movie while catering it to men doesn’t work.
English

An all-female ‘EXPENDABLES’ spin-off is in the works titled ‘EXPENDABELLES’.
The film is set in the late 1990s during the height of Y2K-era tension and geopolitical uncertainty.

@full_send_mma Damn Gina. Didn’t know her game. She looks way better without all hat weight and muscle

@RatcliffSheldon @nhlpens Don’t necessarily agree with your take. Sid is still performing at a high level, but obviously at the tail end of his career.
Wouldn’t say he’s only playing cause of his name as if he’s fallen off a cliff. I think he can still contribute.
English

@nhlpens Not that crazy of a take. Crosby these days is only playing cause of his name. I'd imagine someone younger could easily make up for his loss (points wise), but also no Mack and no Mcjesus so you go with the next best thing
English

Maybe I'm doing too much but why I do I have a strange feeling Sidney Crosby was apart of the group that selected Celebrini as captain behind the scenes.
I say this because:
1. Sid took longer than usual to commit to the tournament.
2. If Sid is on the team there's no logical way anyone takes the C over Sid.
3. They announced the captains and the very next day Sid announces he's in.
I think they're setting up Celebrini to be the future of team Canada for the next 20 years.

@barryswtchemdwn @kungxpao @jlacc23 didn’t know this was common knowledge. why did the dodgers send him on a poverty airline?
English

@KnickWitDaKnack @JomboyMedia BASEBALL that’s why. I fucking love it and I’m just a casual fan. I love it when the benches clear and all the players run to the mound too.
English

@JomboyMedia Why is a manager allowed to leave the dugout to argue after having already been ejected? Should be a fine at a minimum.

@VanCityVice Won’t they all get yeeted out of the city for the World Cup?
English

@petey2debrusk He’s a gem doing color tv though. I feel like he’s too much like “one of the guys” to coach the players
English

I would absolutely love for the Sedin’s to bring in Bieksa in some capacity. He’s an incredibly smart hockey guy and has a no bullshit approach. #Canucks
