Our thoughts are with the people in Minnesota and across the country who are bravely standing up for their neighbors despite violence committed by ICE. If you are looking for a way to support the people of Minnesota, we want to highlight the work being done by the Immigrant Rapid Response Fund.

AOC: This has now become what we feared most about ICE for a long time—that it would be used as an anti-civilian force with no accountability. At the end of the day, what we saw today was a murder, and murders in cold blood need to be prosecuted.

There is no force in the natural world to explain what went wrong with the brownies I tried to make tonight. I can only hope it represents the last dregs of 2025 being cast into the shadows and not an omen of things to come.

Happy New Year y'all.

one thing that’s become very obvious about jessica berman’s nwsl is that owners would still much rather pay lawyers than players
Statement from the NWSLPA. The union is definitely not on board with the new High Impact Player Rule. #NWSL

Fucking hell, Berman really going to run the NWSL into the ground.

What an absolute dumpster fire.

The Spirit Squadron’s statement on the ongoing negotiations regarding Trinity Rodman’s contract and the salary cap.
December 19, 2025 at 10:27 PM
There's something about this that comes across rather nefarious. Why is the NWSL working so hard to do everything but raise the cap? The more complex the system, the easier it is going to be for those in power to exploit it without detection, and it will be the players who suffer for it.
SOURCES: The #NWSL board has voted to approve a new star player fund—internally called "High Impact Player"—to allow teams to spend up to $1M over the cap with a much smaller cap hit for players who meet criteria.

Crucially: A change affecting the cap requires NWSLPA consultation. On @espn.com:
Sources: NWSL 'star' salaries tied to player profile
The NWSL's Board of Governors has approved a new roster mechanism to pay select star players above and beyond the current salary cap, multiple sources confirmed to ESPN.

"We expect the contract... and the free agency to be respected."

NWSLPA Executive Director Meghann Burke explains why the multimillion-dollar deal offered to Trinity Rodman by the Washington Spirit should stand.

Berman is an embarrassment.

I dont want to hear her talking about growth in the NWSL ever again. Inaction is condemnable enough, but now she is actively holding this league back.
December 4, 2025 at 5:37 PM
How is it that so many of these "leaders" in women's sports are some of its greatest hindrances? Can't get out of their own way.

LIKE WHAT ARE WE DOING #NWSL?
NEW: The Spirit came up with a multi-million dollar offer to keep Trinity Rodman in the league, which she was ready to accept. It was vetoed by NWSL commissioner Jessica Berman, according to sources.

Where's it leave negotiations? Great question. www.nytimes.com/athletic/686...

Getting to the championship in back to back years is an amazing feat and we owe it all to our girls who absolutely work their asses off.

I really really (really really really) wanted it for them.

Love this team 🫶

I genuinely dont get where the underdog narrative for Gotham came from? Sure they were the 8th seed, but they were only 4 pts back from 3rd? Spirit had 12 wins, Gotham had 9?Why are they being treated like a bottom tier team no one has heard of? #nwsl
