🚨👀❌ #SITTING OUT — Rory McIlroy has elected to skip next week’s Cadillac Championship at Trump Doral, marking the 2nd consecutive $20M Signature event that the reigning Masters Champion has opted to skip.
Thoughts on the move from Rory?

Trump is about to lock 157 million Americans out of their own bank accounts.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent confirmed an executive order forcing every US bank to collect proof of citizenship is "in process."
And he just doubled down: "If Treasury and the banking regulators say it's their job, it's their job."
This sounds irrelevant but here's what this really means:
Per the Congressional Research Service, only 48% of Americans hold a US passport.
That leaves over 170 million Americans without one.
REAL IDs don't count. Driver's licenses don't count. Social Security cards don't count.
Per Wall Street Journal reporting, banks will need a passport or birth certificate.
The Brennan Center found 21.3 million voting-age US citizens don't have documents proving their citizenship easily available.
These are Americans who are about to lose access to their own bank accounts.
And here's the thing:
The order applies to new AND existing customers. Banks could be forced to close accounts of people who can't produce documents.
Your 78-year-old grandmother born at home in 1948. Your naturalized dad who lost his papers 30 years ago. Your cousin mid-passport renewal.
The official story is that this stops illegal immigrants from accessing banking.
But the actual reality:
Illegal immigrants can't open US bank accounts anyway. Know Your Customer rules already require SSNs or ITINs. The existing system ALREADY blocks what this order claims to block.
So who does this actually target?
The half of Americans without a passport. Rural Americans. Elderly Americans born before centralized record-keeping. Black Americans in Southern states where birth records were historically unreliable. Low-income Americans who can't afford $225 for an expedited passport.
The American Action Forum, a center-right think tank, estimates this adds 33 to 73 million paperwork hours and $2.6 to $5.6 billion in compliance costs.
Guess who pays those costs?
You do. Through fees. Through closed accounts. Through denied loans.
Bessent's defense quote: "I have a place in the UK, they want to know who lives in every apartment."
Bessent's net worth: $600 million.
He has a "place in the UK."
He will not be affected by this.
So this isn't really about immigration.
For the first time in American history, access to the banking system would be conditioned on proving citizenship to the federal government. That creates a permanent database linking every American's finances to their citizenship status.
Once that database exists, it gets used by ICE, voting enforcement, tax enforcement, Social Security, and future administrations for purposes nobody has announced yet.
Every future government gets the keys to decide who has a bank account based on paperwork.
And Wall Street's reaction tells you everything:
Bank execs privately called it "unworkable" and "a complete nightmare." One researcher called it "a way to weaponize the banking system to achieve political ends."
They're not pushing back because they love immigrants. They just KNOW the compliance costs are catastrophic and half their customers will walk.
Tom Cotton also introduced a companion bill in March making it a federal crime for any unauthorized person to "open or maintain a US bank account." Maintain. Meaning existing accounts.
These things are literally being drafted right now.
I'm surprised that all of this went under the radar.

@harukaawake Just because he wears a NY cap doesn’t mean the idiot is from NY. I take offense to it as a New Yorker. Now, find this clown and put him in jail for a month.
English

@martymush All these dumb idiot takes because Rory is in the lead. Lmao!!!
English

I'm not sure if this is a hot take or not but the players shouldn't be allowed to practice the major courses. It should be the 1st time they are playing it that year
Jeff Darlington@JeffDarlington
There’s been a few times in the last 3 weeks when Rory McIlory has dropped his daughter at school, flown to Augusta, played a practice round and returned in time for dinner. If that sounds like a man who’s comfortable at this golf course, well, that’s because he is. An essay:
English

@AsswadLili @lebanesesami Yeah. This never happened. But where is Lebanon? And Why donI have to know where Lebanon is? I have a rough idea though.
English

@lebanesesami 3 days ago, I was walking by the beach in Abu Dhabi when I met two guys from the United States. They asked where I’m from. I said Lebanon.
They replied: “Where is Lebanon? How far is it by plane?”
Shocking.

@ballsofglory19 @Top100Rick Well, the majority of golf fans do. So, you’re just a minority

@Top100Rick Idk how anybody likes Mcilroy. Pure disbelief

@Ms_NYRangers Hey dumb lady. He was pissed because people snatched up free tickets but didn’t go. Causing people that wanted to go unable to.

Richest owner crying about no shows. Is money tight Stevie? Parking price alone would make me not want to go to citified. George would never
Steven Cohen@StevenACohen2
The free ticket giveaway was fully subscribed within hours yesterday . Guess the percentage of no shows from the ticket offer

@LeeroyPress At least it’s an ambulance. These damn idiots just double park everywhere!!!
English

This is an ongoing problem across all five boroughs of NYC—and people are fed up.
The level of inconsideration is unreal. This ambulance had a wide-open spot to pull into, but instead chose to block the entire street like nobody else matters.
And let’s be real—it’s not just ambulances. Garbage trucks are notorious for this too. Same move, different day—hold up traffic, cause chaos, and keep it pushing like it’s normal.

@Jeremybtc @DegenFlanders Car insurance looks like a scam because all the injury/accident attorneys make a fortune from them. Your insurance goes up because attitude get fat with insurance claims.
English

A whole life insurance policy for a healthy 30 year old costs $440 a month.
A term life policy with the exact same $500,000 coverage costs $21 a month.
That's a $419 difference every month.
If you bought the term policy and invested that $419 difference into an S&P 500 index fund from age 30 to 65, you'd have over $1.6 million sitting in your account.
And your family is still fully covered the entire time.
Whole life insurance is a scam.

@bullseyetag01 @turningpointjpn No. Once divorced most people return the wedding ring back.

@turningpointjpn Technically, when she married him, that ring is hers, and he'll probably have to give her the value. But I give him credit for following through. That's never easy.

悲報:妻さん、夫に浮気がバレ、結婚指輪を売りとばされたと知り、とんでもない言い訳を始めてしまう...
妻:指輪が見つからないんだけど、どこにあるか知らない?
夫:結婚指輪のこと?
妻:そうよ。他にどんな指輪つけてたっていうの?
夫:うーん、誰か他の人が持ってるかもな。
妻:どういう意味?誰よそれ?
夫:さあな。俺が質屋に売ったあとに買ったやつだろ。
妻:何言ってるの?
夫:お前の指輪、売った。
妻:なんで?
夫:お前が浮気してるからだよ。
妻:何言ってるの?
最近ずっと様子おかしいだろ。
妻:何のこと?
夫:自分がやってるおかしなこと、気づいてないのか?毎日仕事のあと帰りが遅いし、行き先も嘘ついてる。位置情報共有してるから分かるんだよ。バーに行くって言いながら、実際は住宅街の家にいるだろ、いつも。
妻:ちゃんと話し合おうともせずに、私の指輪を売るの?
夫:わざわざ聞く必要ない。お前が浮気してる証拠はある。Tinderのアカウントも使ってるだろ。
妻:でもそれでも、私の指輪を売る権利はないわ。あれは私のものよ。
夫:いや、俺のだ。
妻:違う、私のよ。
夫:俺が渡したものだ。お前が俺に忠実でいると誓ったから渡したんだ。でも守ってない。だから指輪を持つ資格はない。俺を持つ資格もな。だから指輪を売った金で弁護士を雇って、離婚を申し立てる。
妻:冗談でしょ?
夫:冗談じゃない。本気だ。弁護士から連絡がいくから待ってろ。
妻:待って、なんで?話が大きすぎるでしょ。まだ何も聞いてないじゃない。
夫:聞く必要はない。証拠がある。
妻:でも、こうなってる原因が自分にあるかもしれないって考えたことある?
夫:理由なんて関係ない。夫を裏切ることの正当化にはならない。不満があるなら、離婚してから好きにすればいいだろ。

@fvckerysprinkle You are an idiot and it’s parents like you what’s wrong with kids today.
English

So my daughter had a test and asked her teacher if she was going to grade them over the weekend so she could know her grade on Monday.
Her teachers reply “I’m not spending my weekend grading papers.”
Okay then.. moving forward my children will not spending their after school hours doing hours of homework.
They will not spending their weekend working on projects. They can do that during school time then.

@BenjaminDEKR Depends on the hotel. A place i go to has a check in kiosk but I prefer to go to check in front desk. I can ask for whichever floor I prefer and get some services.
