@tommorris32 It’s a little disturbing that the umpire was so upset and would not speak to a captain (as is his job) - due to something he says surrounds his association with gambling. Why so sensetive?

Confirmed no umpire microphone audio of what Zak Butters allegedly said. Historical reference points for umpire abuse: - Liam Ryan fined $1500 last year - Dale Thomas fined $7,500 for calling a boundary umpire a cheat in 2019 - Dane Rampe fined $5k (+$5k suspended) for telling an umpire he talks ‘like a little girl’ @1116sen @SENBreakfast

Today’s the 30th anniversary of RATM’S um, ‘memorable’ performance on SNL. There was a fight onstage between our crew and SNL stage hands moments before our performance, wrestling over some upside down American flags which adorned our amps. Timmy C then attacked host/billionarie/presidential candidate Steve Forbes’ family in the dressing room with a wadded up flag. Secret Service flooded the hallways. SNL cut (censored?) our second song and kicked us out onto the sidewalk. Evil Empire entered the Billboard Album Chart at #1.

@Passi38381543 @Microinteracti1 This is what’s wrong with the situation and attitude in the USA. There’s no will to fix anything, just deflect - say other countries are worse, ETC. Whataboutism rules. Fess up.

@Microinteracti1 Atleast the US is not like this europoor socialist hellscape overrun by islamists /s

There is a video circulating on the internet that is difficult to watch. A woman sits on a pavement in Louisville, Kentucky. She is wearing a hospital gown. It is 36 degrees outside. Her belongings, everything she apparently owns, are in a plastic bag on the concrete beside her. Behind her, through the glass doors she has just been escorted through, the hospital hums along as normal. The security guards who brought her here have already gone back inside. She couldn’t afford her bill. This is not a scene from a developing nation or a history book. This is the United States of America. The country in which it happens has spent decades telling the rest of the world that it has the highest GDP on earth. Which is a bit like a restaurant proudly displaying its bill on the wall. Enormous number. Terrible meal. The lobster was frozen, the wine came from a box. Europe, by comparison, has spent the better part of a century building something rather different. The food, for a start, is extraordinary. Not in a showy way, but in the way that a simple lunch in Lyon or a glass of wine on a terrace in Lisbon reminds you that eating is one of the genuinely good things about being alive. The wine is the wine that the rest of the world has spent generations attempting to replicate, mostly without success. Roughly 35 percent of Europeans live with a chronic illness. In America, that number is 76 percent. The difference is not genetic. It is architectural. It is the slow accumulation of decent food, walkable cities, actual holidays, and a healthcare system that does not require you to crowdfund your own appendix. Europeans work fewer hours. They have more purchasing power on a smaller salary once you subtract the cost of health insurance, medical debt, and the private school their child needs because the local public one has a metal detector at the entrance. They live, on average, about ten years longer. Not ten years of decline and doctor visits, but ten years of being a person in the world. In the first quarter of 2025, the number of Americans leaving the United States doubled compared to the previous quarter.  Europe was their top destination. Not for a sabbatical or a gap year. Permanently. These are not people who failed. These are people who did the maths. There is a man somewhere in America right now who has worked fifty-hour weeks for forty years, taken one week off when his employer permitted it, and will, statistically, be dead before he sees seventy. And there is another man, not very far away on a map but an entire civilisation removed in practice, sitting on a terrace in the afternoon sun with a glass of something cold and no particular place to be. He has had six weeks off every summer since 1987. He knows his neighbours by name. The first man’s country has the higher GDP. The first man’s country tops the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) index. The second man tops the Quality of Life Index (QLI). The better health. The longer life. The afternoon. MAGA America calls that losing. Ask anyone. Gandalv / @Microinteracti1

@Richmond_TT That was a good moment. Unfortunately it’s isolated. There are too many players in that team that don’t deserve AFL games and are not competitive for 4 quarters. The coach has serious communication issues with supporters. He appears to be holding back too much on how he must feel

Steely Green’s spoil running back with the flight in the 3rd qtr won’t make any highlight reels. But it’s the kind of statement that says that you are prepared to do the extra 1% to stay in the AFL.

@JoshJenkins24 @ACHwithaH @Thomo_Grant It’s different when an official central to the integrity of the game is working for a betting agency that bets on football. It’s also a bad look given that we have already had umpires found to be betting on football.

@ACHwithaH @Thomo_Grant I get the problem people have but this was my contact Film video, write NFL article. Send in via drop box. Send invoice.

Is a player allowed to work at betting agency?

@warri_symbol @Thomo_Grant @hvasstan Yes they are different sports but the business Foote works for, bets on racing. Officiators are central to the integrity of the game. Players don’t have that control.

@Thomo_Grant @hvasstan Well, adults recognise that horse racing and Australian Rules Football are two different sports.

@skahl000 @Thomo_Grant Yes -

@Thomo_Grant I know he's a private citizen, but Kane Cornes talks about potential All Australian selections on his radio spots, while being an AA selector and also being paid by Sportsbet. Would you say that there is a conflict of interest there?

@Shaunpro1 @Thomo_Grant Yes it’s different because he does not work there

@Thomo_Grant Is it any different to Tom Papley going on Sky Racing?

@AnnieForTruth Absolute strategically ridiculous move. Pleading innocence when no one has said directly that you are guilty, is panic.

Melania thought by having this weird presser and saying she had no relationship with Epstein or Maxwell would make it go away! Instead, it brought the Epstein saga into the spotlight even more, along with many questions! She and Trump need to testify under oath. Bring it on! 🍿

@Loricatty @smc429 @distgadfly Privacy or tax purposes….. naive, naive, naive

She was buried there for privacy. Ivana was a very public person in life, and a private burial on family-owned property at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster makes sense. I’ve also never seen credible evidence that the site is ‘covered in weeds’-that claim seems to come from a couple of selectively framed photos that get passed around. People can dislike the optics, but jumping to ‘pauper’s grave’ and ‘they didn’t care about her’ is ridiculous.

Ivana Trump was a socialite. Does anyone really think her dying wish was for her daughter to allow her to be buried in a pauper's grave by her cheating first husband over a tax break? Those children are fucking evil. Nobody who misses their mother would allow her memory to be roped off behind the golf clubhouse, covered in weeds.

@SawedOff12Gauge @NotAvgLiberal Clinging to this one. One may also ask why so many of the Esptien files are redacted or unreleased. And so one. They just all need to be released. This is not politics, it’s a crime ring against minors.

She knew about Epstein, She knew about Donald, She knew about the Victims, She knew about so many others involved. She Knew About Everything. Yet she said nothing. She’s just as bad if, not worse than Ghislaine Maxwell. Pure Fucking Evil.

BREAKING: “Careful with me, b*tch... I'll expose EVERYTHING!” Melania’s Epstein scandal BLOWS UP as Brazilian model trafficked by Epstein, Amanda Ungaro, threatens to destroy Melania's life by exposing the truth. Amanda Ungaro unleashed a wave of public threats at Melania Trump just hours before Melania made a sudden White House statement denying any Epstein connection. The timing has thrown everything into chaos. Ungaro says she was brought to the United States at 17 on Epstein’s plane by Jean-Luc Brunel. She later became part of the same elite modeling circles as Melania, both represented by Paolo Zampolli, the man who introduced Melania to Donald Trump. Now she is going public. Ungaro wrote: I have nothing left to lose in my life. I will tear down the entire system be careful with me b***h. She followed with: I will tear down your corrupt system even if it is the last thing I do in my life. I will go all the way I am not afraid. Maybe you should be afraid of what I know of who you are and who your husband is. She also said: I have known you for 20 years. You knew I was detained in ICE. Ungaro’s deportation came after Zampolli contacted a top ICE official during a custody battle, according to reporting. The government claimed her visa had expired, calling political interference claims false. Melania insists she never knew Epstein, never flew on his plane, never visited his island. But photos and emails reveal otherwise. DAMN. Ungaro needs to be kept safe, and fully empowered to take down the Epstein class, starting with the people at the top -- Donald & Melania. Via~~U.S. Democratic Socialists

هذا المقطع من ترامب وهو يواعد ميلانيا ينتشر فيراليًا بينما يدرك الناس للتو ما حدث. شاهدوا جيدًا. هل لاحظتوا شي غريب ؟

@KerryHolmekb Are are you sure she hasn’t done anything wrong? That bizzare presser appeared as an admission of guilt

The constant disrespect our First Lady Melania TRUMP receives is disgusting. She hasn’t done anything wrong to deserve any of it. I’m glad she’s finally standing up for herself. She’s an amazing First Lady 🇺🇸

@Independent @Microinteracti1 Why to governments always think distracting people changes facts? The Epstein files will never go away. - it’s this government’s legacy and it is destroying any judgement they may have had.

@BlaineGilb77537 @EdKrassen You never know they voted for a racist convicted felon.

Just so my calendar is clear, should I be reserving a table at Sylvia’s? Are you going to run again?" Buttigieg: "You save me a seat. I’ll be there!"

Stop butchering the development of the few young guys we actually have to try salvaging what will be at best a wildcard spot. Even if they aren’t up to it at least we’ll know for sure
