ugly, physical games benefit the Pistons. if they they hit 30% on threes, it would have been a blowout

correct. he's dead. in 2019, the immigration judge had a hearing and determined Garcia qualified under US law for a hold on any deportation because he faced danger from MS13 - who unsuccessfully recruited him - if he was returned home. Trump sent him to a slave prison controlled by MS13. Of course he's dead. At least I hope he is, because the alternative is even more horrifying.

hiring private contractors who will meet pre-defined quotas to identify X% of immigrants as "gang members" is vital to the (now) international for-profit prison scam, which only works if you are sending enough people to prison

it's coming sooner rather than later no one will stop them

everyday is just one more big step towards fascism. and MAGA will never pay a price for any of this.

2 hits in 2 days does not seem to be very many hits per day

when do we get out OF of Greene-Meadows-Veirling?

as more comes out about the press conference, it is clear the entire Dallas organization is suffering from some sort of collective delusion and/or carbon monoxide poisoning also they all believe the "organizations win championships, not players" insanity. Yikes!

John Roberts told Trump everything he does is legal - so Trump is doing every illegal thing he can think of

Donald Trump is the most successful businessman in the history of America, if not the most successful businessman in the entirety of human history. There was an entire TV show about it. He knows more about everything than anybody.

Yankees have paid CB tax 9 of past 11 years, and will do so again in 2025. they purposefully tried to reset tax in 2018 and 2021 and that worked, but now they are tax payers for the foreseeable future.

trying not to get too amped about this team, but it's not working! if they ever get healthy, they have a chance to be even better, when they replace Nido, Kreidler, Margot with Jake, Vierling, Meadows that even leaves Malloy, Perez, Jung at Toledo they aren't top heavy like the DD teams, which is both good and bad not having room for all these solid/legit players is a nice problem to have

I think it is likely a few BLM and Antifa and pro-Palestine "leaders" are picked up under Terrorist or Wartime statutes and sent immediately to slave prisons - even though they are Americans and really, that's all you need to do, to get people to shut up and not object to all the lawlessness.

he's going to grab some dark Americans he does not like and ship them to the slave prison, and congress and the courts will do nothing. what a sh\thole country.

this is a few years old, but hits on a lot of issues. one thing I will add is that it is cruel to say to some poor people, who may be food insecure and not know when there next "big" calorie dense meal will be, "eat fewer calories, it will better for you in the long run." that is true, but for many it is about survival and hunger. to a well-off person who knows that there will be 21 meals a week, that's an easier, more reasonable ask. https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2022/08/31/1120004717/the-u-s-diet-is-deadly-here-are-7-ideas-to-get-americans-eating-healthier

they got a real shot. if they can steal Game 1, I actually think they will advance. 2 regular season wins in MSG hopefully means something. Brunson did what he wanted first 3 match-ups. Game 1: loss in Detroit; early season rout before Piston figured who they were https://www.espn.com/nba/boxscore/_/gameId/401704700 Game 2: win in NY; Cade triple double, no KAT, Pistons shoot 50% on 3s https://www.espn.com/nba/boxscore/_/gameId/401704909 Game 3: win in NY; Cade 36; NYK full strength, one of the better wins this season https://www.espn.com/nba/boxscore/_/gameId/401705115 Game 4: win in Detroit; Cade 36; Pistons shoot 58% from the field, already could see this playoff pairing https://www.espn.com/nba/boxscore/_/gameId/401705733

Trump is having his physical today. Will be obese, obviously. Hopefully they give him another cognitive test so he can brag about identifying a giraffe, and MAGA will swoon. We never got an explanation why he was rushed to Walter Reed at midnight his first term - WH said it was routine and press could not be bothered to inquire further.

News ($) has article with Max Clark gushing about talent around him. He and McGonigle knew each other from all-star circuit before they were drafted. https://www.detroitnews.com/story/sports/mlb/tigers/2025/04/10/max-clark-on-detroit-tigers-minor-league-talent-its-insane/82986276007/ and https://www.mlb.com/news/early-season-developments-to-believe-in-for-each-mlb-team-2025 Tigers: Dillon Dingler breaks out at catcher Even before Jake Rogers went to the injured list Tuesday with left oblique tightness, Dingler’s strong play – both at the plate and behind it – was making a push for more than backup playing time, leading manager A.J. Hinch to say the Tigers had two viable starting catchers. With Rogers sidelined, Dingler now figures to get the bulk of playing time, giving him regular at-bats to build on an encouraging start at the plate. His track record as a prospect showed him picking it up at each level after an adjustment period of initial struggles, and he’s showing signs of making the turn in the Majors. -- Jason Beck

interesting corporate governance question. bribing Trump to obtain a tariff waiver is illegal but will never be prosecuted if Dems are barred from being President again. so if the bribe is what you need to do to maximize shareholder value, then are you not obligated to pay the bribe?

2 core MAGA needs are hurting people, but even more, enjoying the distress normals experience about those other people being hurt. this case is perfect MAGA. a guy guilty of being brown with tattoos sent to a slave prison, and anyone who is a normal is of course upset about it. "And he has an autistic child?" "YES!" MAGA cannot get enough of this.

also aimed to naturalized Americans (that is, not REAL Americans) - who may not have birth certificate from country of origin. friend's mom fled Castro's Cuba. impossible to get any documentation, which would not even show her current name anyhow (single, married, widowed, remarried). and these people will have no trouble voting, ... but if they were Dems? Nikki Haley's birth certificate reads Nimarata Nikki Randhawa born Bamberg, SC. Ted Cruz's birth certificate reads Rafael Edward Cruz born Calgary, Alberta. Usha Vance's birth certificate reads Usha Bala Chilukuri born San Diego, CA.

Moonlight Graham, Chapter 2 😟

he is completely economically illiterate. he has no idea how any of this works. foreign investment INCREASES the trade deficit, which he thinks is the greatest crime a country can commit. (also, he is clearly panicked)
