Wonder how long Kluivert has had a problem in his knee.. it would explain his drop off in form this season if he's been playing through it. #afcb

There are 62 days until the special election to fill the seat vacated by Marjorie Taylor Greene.
20 Republicans are running.
One Democrat is running.
I’m that Democrat.
This is how we win.

A pretty safe red seat but you never know..
From the AP:
"Republican Doug LaMalfa, a seven-term U.S. representative from California, has died, GOP officials said Tuesday.
His death reduces the Republicans’ already narrow control of the House to 218 seats to Democrats’ 213."

No one is asking Wes Streeting to be a commentator.
Asking him to be a government minister when the whole world can see Trump breaking international law whilst threatening Greenland next, and the Cabinet (with Nigel Farage) seems perfectly fine with it.

Wes Streeting is asked if Trump has broken international law when it comes to Venezuela. Streeting says he's got nothing to add and he's not here to be a commentator.
I mean, which idiot thinks politicians should answer questions when they're being interviewed in a TV studio!

The Nobel Committee should withdraw it if that happens. What an absolute denigration of the prize that would be.
wtf? Like that would be the worst possible response to him invading a country.
She’s pitching the Nobel like it’s a timeshare in Aruba.

On February 13, 2021, the Senate failed to do its duty and convict Donald Trump for attempting to overthrow our government by interrupting the peaceful transfer of power. We live in the world we do because 10 people didn't have the courage to do the right thing.

Today was the straw that broke the camel's back.
This kind of bullshit, the servile, venal response from Starmer and ministers to Trump, combined with disgust at them backing genocide, Brexit and lack of any principles or integrity has resulted in me joining the party that is offering real hope.

Might use Hilton Hotels again after this..
“No room at the Inn” is a biblical reference about immigrants (Jesus’ parents) being turned away. Not the government. Way to go, Hilton! The 3rd Amendment protects private entities from having to house the government.

Not even the prompts. If you are a Twitter user in the UK and Twitter sticks a Grok CSAM image in your feed for WHATEVER reason, well congrats your device just downloaded child porn. And you are legally responsible for that.
Even if nobody wants to take action against Musk for building a CSAM generator, there are people using it who are based in the UK and those prompts are absolutely something that would get you on the sex offender's register. Absolutely no justification not to try to identify and prosecute users.

This is just fucking disgusting.
One example of how Grok is being used to target women. Swedish Deputy Prime Minister Ebba Busch being sexualised, degraded, and humiliated step-by-step by Grok. All the images accurately reflect the prompts provided.

Something I've repeatedly banged on about in an #afcb context under various managers/head coaches..
One of my long-held beliefs is that sporting directors should be much more publicly accountable than they are in the Premier League.
An article about why it shouldn't always just be the coaches in front of the cameras.

Polish PM Tusk: No-one will take seriously a weak and divided Europe: neither enemy nor ally. It is already clear now. We must finally believe in our own strength, we must continue to arm ourselves, we must stay united like never before. One for all, and all for one. Otherwise, we are finished.

You can tell it's a dull window when transfer nonce is having to use a loan recall to generate interaction cash..
🚨🔵 EXCLUSIVE: Manchester City recall centre back Max Alleyne from Watford with immediate effect. #MCFC act fast as Josko Gvardiol will be out for several weeks with injury. City were very happy with Alleyne’s game time and development at Watford + need him now. Here we go 🔙

A very long and important THREAD -
The real reason the US is invading Venezuela goes back to a deal Henry Kissinger made with Saudi Arabia in 1974.
And I'm going to explain why this is actually about the SURVIVAL of the US dollar itself.

Marjorie Taylor Greene: "This is the same DC playbook that we are so sick & tired of that doesn't serve the American people, but actually serves the big corporations, the banks, and the oil executives... I want to see domestic policy be the priority... we don't consider Venezuela our neighborhood."

Starmer and Farage both drape themselves in flags but once again it's really clear where their loyalty really is.
It's Trump first. They will always be on the side of the super rich and powerful - no matter how heinous the crime.
This is not patriotism. It's subservience.

On the plus side, Hilly and Jimenez were very good again. Scott too although I did think 2 of their goals don't happen if a real CDM like Tyler Adams is playing.. #afcb
