The idea that a USL pro team can lift the Inland SoCal region's soccer profile remains one of the project's biggest selling points.

I talked to Riverside's ⚽️ people to find out what they think.

Last week, the Indiana University administration asked their student newspaper not to print any news stories in the Homecoming edition. When the faculty advisor refused, IU fired him and ended paper printing. So students at the Purdue paper printed the IU edition and drove it down to Bloomington!

The special edition blasted across town features columns from IDS and Exponent editors, alongside QR codes to support both student papers.

Chris Murphy: "This is a country that's falling apart because Trump is in the middle of an authoritarian takeover. We're not on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We're in the middle of it ... I have no moral obligation to vote for a budget that literally funds the destruction of our democracy"

On a flight this morning with a bunch of folks headed to Chicago, then South Bend for this weekend's Notre Dame v USC 🏈 game.

So much Scarlet & Green & Gold. It's kind of gross.

I will do everything I can, within my scope, to see that this fails.

First they co-opt then bleed CalSouth's State Cup, and now they want to build their own thing, and do it in CalNorth's face?

People will soon see this vulture corp for what it really is.

Just received my FIFA World Cup media accrediation application email.

Tbh, I'm a little scared of what they'll ask for this time.

Thinking maybe a blood/DNA sample?

They already have my SSN, EIN and CA Driver's License.

This is the state secret police committing acts of public humiliation and torture. Americans don’t have a language for this in the public consciousness but that is what this is with no exaggeration or embellishment.

ICE is hog tying protesters in Portland and removing them on Dollies.

This is dangerous and could cause serious injury.

The Department of Homeland Security thinks it’s a joke.

They’ve shared this video with the tagline “Refuse to Walk? We’ll give you a ride”.

Stay strong Portland.
