@superkeeper33 @SoccerSheet Actually would beg to differ, Zaha could not get anything moving for the first half, only really beat JMR once (though it left the far left lane open for Charlotte). Then the second half happened of course …

@SoccerSheet I know this team depends a lot on Biel.. BUT when Westy plays the way he did last night that midfield is different and last night showed it. Him & Diani were on 🔥last night. If they keep playing like that this team will be scary to play against

Ashley Westwood still believes that Masters tickets are the way to the Gaffers heart, but appreciates the love he gave him for his play last night

The cost of Donald Trump’s war with Iran is at least 10-100x more costly and 10x more harmful than Barack Obama’s peace with Iran. The number of terrible decisions Trump has made simply because of his inferiority complex (and racism) with regard to Obama is embarrassing.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent@SecScottBessent

Iran is the head of the snake for global terrorism, and through President Trump’s Operation Epic Fury, we are winning this critical fight at an even faster pace than anticipated. In response to Iran’s terrorist attacks against global energy infrastructure, the Trump Administration will continue to deploy America’s economic and military might to maximize the flow of energy to the world, strengthen global supply, and seek to ensure market stability. Today, the Department of the Treasury is issuing a narrowly tailored, short-term authorization permitting the sale of Iranian oil currently stranded at sea. At present, sanctioned Iranian oil is being hoarded by China on the cheap. By temporarily unlocking this existing supply for the world, the United States will quickly bring approximately 140 million barrels of oil to global markets, expanding the amount of worldwide energy and helping to relieve the temporary pressures on supply caused by Iran. In essence, we will be using the Iranian barrels against Tehran to keep the price down as we continue Operation Epic Fury. This temporary, short-term authorization is strictly limited to oil that is already in transit and does not allow new purchases or production. Further, Iran will have difficulty accessing any revenue generated and the United States will continue to maintain maximum pressure on Iran and its ability to access the international financial system. So far, the Trump Administration has been working to bring around 440 million additional barrels of oil to the global market, undercutting Iran’s ability to leverage its disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz. President Trump’s pro-energy agenda has driven U.S. oil and gas production to record levels, strengthening energy security and lowering fuel costs. Any short-term disruption now will ultimately translate into longer-term economic gains for Americans – because there is no prosperity without security.

LaMelo Ball had a really good night Tuesday, and Dell Curry inspired yet another win on Thursday. The Hornets look like they’re all but guaranteed to have a postseason. Read More: yallweekly.com/p/buzz-bulleti…

@choosesam You’re absolutely right about the pizza. I actually started my career in SW MO so I’m particular to Andy’s when it comes to custard. Pretzels sound good. TBH I’d won’t have time to go out to eat UNLESS the Royals get it done tonight. Then, I’m going straight to The Hill for 🍝

Off to see a man about a street dog, a sweater and hopefully a Cinderella. Excited to be on my way (eventually) to St. Louis to cover @queensMBB’s first ever NCAA D1 tourney game. Will have interviews all day leading up on @wcnc including with past Royals. First team ‘89 in photo

High Point University in NC, which beat Wisconsin in basketball today, conducts campus tours on golf carts, offers wealthy students private housing for $40,000 per year and built an "airplane-cabin interior" so that students could rehearse sitting next to an executive on a plane.
