I feel like Trump is only a few months away from wearing a sash
El Congreso de Perú votó a favor de la destitución del presidente José Jerí el martes. Asumió el puesto en octubre, tras presidir la vacancia de su predecesora. Es el sexto presidente peruano de la última década que abandona el cargo antes de finalizar su mandato.
Perú destituye al presidente, otra vez
El Congreso peruano aprobó la destitución del presidente José Jerí. El mandatario tenía cuatro meses en el cargo, que asumió después de que Dina Boluarte también fue vacada.

finally watched SENTIMENTAL VALUE and was texting with my 24-year-old film buff son (who had already seen it) about it and used the classic cliche "I'd watch Stellan Skarsgard read the phone book", briefly forgetting how anachronistic it is. But how can we forget this www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_LA...

had largely avoided them but gave them a spin and after 5 songs of GETTING KILLED I've come to the conclusion I'd rather listen to actual geese
happy for those who enjoy them though

Germany scores and five minutes have come off the clock without the USA adding to their lead so they're pretty much locked into the 2-seed now and a possible date with Sweden in the QFs
Still a longshot to get to the 10 needed for the #1 overall seed but Matthews' second of the game puts the USA halfway there with 13 minutes to go in the 3rd

Again I'm about 15 minutes behind (not that the outcome is in doubt), was happy to see Brandon Hagel score but the British announcer pronounced his last name as "haggle" instead of rhyming with bagel
Since we have a British announcer on this Canada-France hockey game I'm waiting for him to say France was "put to the sword"

just catching up on Canada's hockey game and saw all those goals at the end of the 2nd and start of the 3rd, haven't seen the French defense collapse like that since 1940

And ball don't lie as Tonali scores off the free kick
I will never say a bad thing about VAR as #nufc is screwed again, Villa called for handball which was a foot inside the box yet the ref places the ball outside the box instead of giving a penalty
