Trump on Melania's letter to Putin: "She has a wonderful son that she loves probably more than anybody including me. But she loves her son ... it was a beautiful letter. It was very well received by him [Putin]."

F off Lil’ M ….
RADDATZ: The president went in to that meeting saying he wanted a ceasefire and there would be consequences if they didn't agree on a ceasefire in that meeting, and they didn't agree to a ceasefire. Where are the consequences?
RUBIO: That's not the aim
RADDATZ: The president said that was the aim

Is there anybody who isn’t tired of hearing his effing voice?
Trump on Putin: "Because of a certain relationship that he has with me running this country, he really I believe now is convinced he's going to make a deal. He's gonna make a deal ... but there is a 25% chance that this meeting will not be a successful meeting."

The worst ones are people like Hassett, who are very aware that they are lying to the American people week after week on Sunday shows to cover for Trump, but do it effortlessly with a smile. In many ways worse than the brainless cultists. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Kevin Hassett: "The president wants his own people there, so that when we see the jobs numbers, they are more transparent and more reliable."

It’s only going to get worse mainly because your colleagues have no guts. Many instances where they should’ve fought back. But they don’t back each other. Like AP “Gulf of Mexico”. Media should’ve walked out en mass & no mainstream media should go into Oval Office if the bootlickers are also there.
CBS News did nothing wrong. But its parent company still paid the price.
That's the moral of the Paramount settlement story. And it's a story that keeps repeating itself in the Trump era. cnn.it/3ThnF05

Boeser signing is significant for Canucks, though puzzling to me from Boeser’s standpoint (Re: not wanting a change of scenery.) Significant to lock in 30+ GF, though the term is too long. Also puzzling is Van didn’t seem super high about keeping him just a few months ago.

Just saw “F1 The Movie”. Great experience to not only watch the movie but feel the movie. So authentic. Big screen must view. Incredible sound. Apple production. Extremely well done. #VroomVroom

Because most of them are assholes, or have asshole like tendencies.
There is no appeasing these people

A lot of people are going to be right about Evander Kane…….and just as many are going to be wrong. Meantime, that’s too much term for Garland. #OpenPhones #PleasantGoodEvening

They bend every law, they break every law, they hack voting machines, they deploy roving gangs of thugs to steal people off the street, they openly embrace racism, they lie nonstop, they incite political violence, and much more. Their evil knows no limits. Then they claim to be followers of Jesus.

I’m not ignoring the Kane acquisition, but reserving judgement until end of free agent season. What I will say is that the absolute #1 job for JR/PA is managing assets, and to date (assuming Brock goes, Demko and EP stay, JT fiasco, losing Tocchet, etc), they’ve failed in Vancouver.

When inducted into the BCSHOF I said in my acceptance speech my biggest Sportstalk regret was never being able to say, “Tonight we’re coming your way on a night when the Canucks have won the Stanley Cup”! I wonder how it would’ve sounded if I said Calder Cup? Or during Open phones? #1stTimeCalder

However - (for various reasons) winning the Calder Cup hasn’t translated into great success by their affiliate team. In fact, in this century, no NHL team has won the Stanley Cup within 7 yrs of their farm club winning the Calder Cup. danrussellsportstalk.com

Since joining the NHL in 1970, the Canucks have had 18 minor‑league pro farm teams, (AHL, ECHL, IHL etc). Their first ever AHL farm team was the Rochester Americans. Prior to 2025 three others (Express, Moose, and Comets) reached the final, but only Abby has won title! #CalderCup

Congrats to the AHL Canucks for achieving what the WHL Canucks did 55 years ago - a minor pro championship. Unlike Abby, the ‘70 team needed only 2 rds of playoffs. And unlike the ‘70 team this wasn’t the final minor pro GP before joining the NHL. #PleasantGoodEvening #CalderCup

A lot of people own this. But Merrick Garland is so freaking high up the list. What the F was he doing for two years? (I know Mitch as well.)
