On Tuesday, I spent the afternoon at The Arsenal Hub, seeing first-hand the work Arsenal in the Community has been doing for 40 years.

I spoke to staff, participants and Mikel Merino, and came away genuinely humbled.

Here’s my write-up for @arseblog.com.

Inside The Arsenal Hub, where the Club meets its Community
It’s 2.30 pm on a Tuesday, and after more than a decade walking past it on my way to Emirates Stadium, I’m finally inside The Arsenal Hub – the home of Arsenal in the Community. To my right, two teams...

Today, my colleague David Yaffe-Bellany and I published an investigation into the frenzied world of crypto unleased by Trump.

Risk taking, profiteering & yes, innovation, as crypto bros sense that this is the moment crypto will go mainstream in the U.S.

🇺🇸 On this day 25 years ago, The Conservative Supreme Court handed George W. Bush the 2000 presidential election.
A heartbroken Al Gore graciously conceded, and delivered a passionate call for national unity.

🇺🇸 Just 20 years later, Donald J. Trump lost by 7 million votes and attacked our country.

FIFA's World Cup ticket prices are a betrayal to the most dedicated fans. At least $6900 to support your team from the first match to the final - nearly 5 times more than in Qatar.

FSE calls for the immediate halt to ticket sales.

I hope people understand that if Trump gets his way America will soon be part of the global axis of evil if we aren't already. You see it in the Caribbean, you see it in Ukraine, and you see it with Trump trying to buddy up to Xi. We are a malevolent force.

The owner class seriously looked at Joe Biden as a radical threat because he ushered in worker empowerment & went all in for Trump.

A risk we face is: that class sees the blue wave coming and invests heavily in a soft centrist landing for them and we are going to have to defeat that in primaries.

just incredible optics here, the president yelling at you about how you should buy less and like it, three weeks before christmas, while standing in front of a bunch of stupefied moronic dipshits holding BIGGER PAYCHECKS signs
Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

The President Who Never Grew Up
Instead of focusing on governing, Trump spends his days chasing entertainment, attention and renovation projects that reflect a presidency stuck in adolescence.
