“You’re the most obnoxious reporter in the whole place. A terrible reporter.”

Trump again attacks a Black female reporter, ABC’s Rachel Scott, for asking about releasing the full boat strike video - which he said he would do 5 days ago

And the other journalists stay silent🐔

“The saddest thing about betrayal is that it never comes from your enemies.”

On November 18th, 2014, at the Toronto Maple Leafs vs Nashville Predators hockey game, the mic cut out partway through the American anthem….the Canadian fans picked it up from there.

30 years old, never scored more than 4 goals in a Serie A season. Has spent most of his career there in Serie B. Attacking underlyings are mid at best (though he certainly works hard defensively).

I can't believe this is a DP signing.

A month out from Olympic hockey rosters being announced. Here's the 25 man roster lining up for Canada if it were my decision. I would expect to see all skaters lace up for at least one game.

"If the U.S. military operation is not an armed conflict of any kind, these orders to kill helpless civilians clinging to the wreckage of a vessel our military destroyed would subject everyone from SECDEF down to the individual who pulled the trigger to prosecution under U.S. law for murder."
Here are US military lawyers stating clearly that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's "kill everybody" orders are either (1) war crimes or (2) murder.

Either way, expect prosecutions in the future.

Well this is surprisingly good news for Halbouni considering what was first feared. The bad news is it still ended his playoff run for the #VWFC.
Jesper Sorensen asked about Belal Halbouni by @HarJournalist.

Injury not as bad as first feared. 7 to 10 weeks recovery time.

Was in gym on bike today. 🙏

Huge moment in this interview with @frankdomenic.bsky.social.

NDP leadership candidate @avilewis.ca puts proportional representation on the national stage and makes it the non negotiable democratic reform we need.

When leadership contenders acknowledge the core issue, the national debate shifts.

How I'd like to see the #CanMNT line up tonight vs Venezuela. 🇨🇦 hasn't scored since Cornelius' wonder set piece goal vs Wales in September. Marsch will start Tani but it's time give Promise a run. Also, Choiniere at LB more closely approximates Millar or Ahmed's playing traits.

Andrii lost both of his parents last night - they were killed by a Russian attack.

Andrii's parents had moved from their village to #Kyiv less than a week ago to spend the winter here. His father had cancer, and Andrii had been taking care of him. Both parents were killed instantly.

Was an unused sub, again. For his own sake and the sake of the #CanMNT Eustaquio needs to get a move this winter ahead of the '26 WC.
