@mcuban @dmweisberger Of course they would try. But the only way they would have a chance would be to drop prices and improve quality to a competitive level. That would be something that many would refuse to do. And like a crappy airline, they’d go out of business.

@dmweisberger So you think the conglomerates will just stand by passively ? They wouldn’t take advantage of the lack of regulations to do anything they could to stop all competitors ?

Ok. Take government completely out of healthcare. No rules. No laws. No Medicare. No Medicaid. Hospitals, insurance companies, can do anything they want. What do they do ? If you were running any of the biggest insurance companies or hospitals, what would you do differently once gov was completely out of healthcare ?

@SenAdamSchiff Felon.

My thoughts go out to Tulsi Gabbard and her family, as her husband battles this serious health problem. I hope and pray that he makes a speedy and full recovery. While the circumstances around her departure are deserving of our sympathy, let’s be clear: Tulsi Gabbard’s only positive contribution to our nation's national security is her resignation. She politicized intelligence. She dismantled critical agencies keeping Americans safe. She weaponized the IC to pursue baseless election fraud claims. And more. We must ensure that her tenure — marked by a devotion to the person of the president and not to the security of the country — represents a terrible exception at DNI and not the new normal.

@_bengelo_ As stereotypes go, this is one of the stupidest I’ve seen.

the players are good americans are just too stubborn to learn things that aren’t mainstream (which is why a vast majority of american soccer fans always support super clubs in europe)

@jasonwhitlock @Sssss896105861 And exactly nothing in the Supreme Court’s ruling suppresses voting IN ANY WAY.

The NAACP has called on all black high school athletes to reject enrolling in state schools in states that suppress black voters. This is another example of how outdated the organization is and how desperate they are for attention.

@JulianCardillo What is the difference?

This is absolute madness. Leave the game alone. It is already suffering from over governance. You want a solution? Include a separate ticker in stadia and on TV showing stoppage time in real time. Congratulations, that’s the official stoppage time at the end of 90.

@wwallace308 @JulianCardillo

@JulianCardillo They have lost their minds. Nothing to do with College soccer should be replicated in the World game. Nothing

Imagine the hubris of saying we should stop the clock in the world’s game because COLLEGE SOCCER IN THE USA stops its clock. Oh my goodness people.

@Dtgreat13 @JulianCardillo 💯

@JulianCardillo Imagine only 1 guy on the field knowing when the game will end and he is just “vibing” it. No actual rhyme or reason about how much time was actually wasted during the 57 stops in play per half. Just him and his whistle.

@revjmg22 @JulianCardillo @coreycapoccia So incompetent referees is a reason not to use a common sense improvement? Should definitely get rid of the EPL. Nearly all of their referees are incompetent.

@JulianCardillo @coreycapoccia MLS used to stop the clock in the very beginning years of the league. It was a disaster. Refs kept forgetting to signal to stop. I’d argue more game time was lost then!

@JulianCardillo @TigsTown Anyone with a functioning brain.

@TigsTown Says who?

@JulianCardillo If that were the actual reason, then maybe you would have a point. It isn’t. You know that. So you don’t. Have a point, that is.

@Norweezy89 @MLSist @downthebyline @MattHughesMedia That makes absolutely ZERO sense.

@MLSist @downthebyline @MattHughesMedia you’d be amazed how long the games would be if they did this. lol

NEW: MLS has had preliminary discussions with IFAB about potentially trialing the use of a stopped clock during matches, a potentially fundamental, massive change to the laws of the game. I have more on the Guardian, w/@MattHughesMedia: theguardian.com/football/2026/…

@jstu313 @MLSist @MattHughesMedia It’s certainly not ALL that it does. It also removes the insane randomness of everyone wondering when a half or the game is over. WHY WOULD ANYONE OPPOS THAT???

@MLSist @MattHughesMedia All this does is open the opportunity for ads to play during the game.

@MLSist @MattHughesMedia Please, God, yes.

@abooker17 You could not possibly be more wrong! This is one of the main things that drive American soccer fans insane. There is NO EXCUSE for there to be uncertainty about when the game is over. It’s asinine and just stupid.

MLS is poor at attracting American soccer fans who wake up every Saturday morning at 7am to watch hours of European football, and that’s an audience they need to capture in this country. The last thing they should do is make the sport unrecognizable to the rest of the world.

@Nota_Sharknow @tirvo_ @grok

@tirvo_ @grok Over 38 games Arsenal weren’t top because refs dragged them there. They won through consistency, defense, depth and results. Every club has bad decisions go against them. Saying Arsenal would suddenly drop without PGMOL help is rival banter, not analysis.

Hey @grok, if PGMOL didn’t help Arsenal this season, where do you think they’d be in the Premier League table?

Gilles, je vais démonter ta prémisse de départ, parce que tout le reste de ton argument s'effondre avec elle. Tu pars du principe qu'il faut une « sensibilité de gauche » pour ne pas laisser créver les gens de faim. C'est l'inverse total de ce que dit l'histoire économique des 50 dernières années. Les chiffres bruts. 1990 : 2,3 milliards de personnes en pauvreté extrême. 38% de l'humanité. 2025 : 831 millions. Environ 10%. 1,5 milliard d'êtres humains sortis de la misère absolue en 35 ans. La plus grande réduction de souffrance humaine de toute l'histoire de l'espèce. Qui a fait ça ? Pas l'aide internationale. Pas les ONG. Pas les programmes de redistribution. Pas la « sensibilité de gauche ». Le marché. L'ouverture commerciale. La Chine de Deng en 1978 qui abandonne le maoisme. L'Inde en 1991 qui libéralise. Le Vietnam, l'Indonésie, le Bangladesh qui s'ouvrent au capitalisme. Les seuls endroits où l'extrême pauvreté a EXPLOSÉ sur la même période ? Le Vénézuela socialiste : de 27% de pauvres en 2008 à plus de 80% en 2018, avec une inflation de 130 000% et un Vénézuélien moyen qui a perdu 11 kilos par dénutrition. La Corée du Nord. Cuba. Le Zimbabwe de Mugabe. La gauche ne nourrit pas les pauvres. Elle les fabrique. Le capitalisme produit tellement de richesse que même ses « perdants » américains vivent mieux que la classe moyenne soviétique. Un pauvre US a un frigo, une voiture, un téléphone, l'air conditionné, internet. Un pauvre cubain attend du riz. Ton argument selon lequel « le social aux USA est un désastre » repète une légende française. La réalité : le PIB par habitant américain est de 80 000$. Français : 45 000$. Un Mississippien — l'État US le plus pauvre — a un revenu médian supérieur au Français moyen. La vérité que la gauche française refuse de regarder : dans un système libéral, il y a plus de richesse créée, plus largement distribuée, et beaucoup moins de pauvres. Partout. Sans exception. Sur toutes les périodes mesurées. ÊTRE de gauche en 2026 face à ces données, ce n'est pas avoir de la « sensibilité ». C'est ignorer 35 ans de preuves accablantes. C'est préférer la posture morale au résultat. La compassion sans résultats, ça s'appelle de la vanité.

@bcdsignature What other reason would anyone want it?

This is why US wants Greenland.

@jaredpolis @RepThomasMassie @MassieforKY Yeah, that's not it.

While I don’t agree with him on many issues, @RepThomasMassie @MassieforKY has the most integrity of anyone in Congress, and he’s super-smart. I’m truly saddened to see our nation lose out on his ongoing public service. Better times: grist.org/article/these-…

@C_3C_3 I see what you did there.... ;)

If Trump’s not careful the Republican Establishment in the Senate won’t support him or pass the MAGA agenda…

@BasedMikeLee In case you wonder if the Democrats consider their desire to stay in power as a literal war, then listening to this should wake you up. Only a Neville Chamberlain could hear this and think you could compromise with them.

Hakeem Jeffries wants to “break” Trump voters He says “we have to defeat them electorally and then we have to break their spirit.” What does that even mean?
