Under this theory, Marco Rubio can expel Canadians who say “you should stop threatening to annex Canada.”
Leavitt: "Secretary Rubio reserves the right to revoke the visa of Mahmoud Khali. Under the immigration and nationality act, the secretary of state has the right to revoke a green card or a visa for individuals who are adversarial to the foreign policy and national security interests of the USA."

with a 24-point loss in the first round of the Horizon League Tournament, Doug Gottlieb's first year as UW-Green Bay head coach/radio host is over. The results:

4-28 record, 3rd worst in D-I
14-game drop from last year's 18-14 record
2-18 in conference, last place by 2 games
ranked 334th on Kenpom
Checking in on Doug Gottlieb's attempt to coach a D-I basketball team while also appearing on the radio 2 hours a day to talk about which QBs are overrated:

Green Bay is 2-16 (0-7 in conference) and has already lost more games than last year with 2 months to go

The Doug Gottlieb coaching experiment is going even worse than you imagined
Coaching a college basketball team is hard. You simply can't do the best possible job while spending 15 hours a week talking about which NFL quarterbacks are overrated. Doug Gottlieb is proving that.

Sermon starts 30 minutes into the stream, but the music is worth hanging out for.

It would be fantastic if major federal institutions would acknowledge that the executive branch cannot legally unilaterally cancel or redistribute congressionally appropriated funding on ideological grounds and thus they have no legal obligation to comply with such directives
Trump funding freeze a blatant violation of Constitution, federal law: Legal experts
The Constitution, federal law and court decisions make it clear: President Donald Trump's order to pause federal funding is against the law, legal experts tell ABC News.

Trying to find a way to say this that doesn't sound super callous. And I don't work on AI.

But every software developer either dies ignorant or has a day where they reckon with the fact that all their work is stuff that would otherwise be done by a person and thus is destroying a job.

Watching Jameis Winston play QB, even years later, still somehow looks like watching an 8 year old play Madden for like, the fifth time.

Have been watching that same Corona palm tree Christmas ad since what seems like 2000.

Like Corona shot one Christmas ad ever and decided to call it a day.

Mom and dad explaining to kids that when you grow up, you don't really feel different from when you're 14, mentally.

if you're a tech journalist in the present climate, it's incumbent upon you to ask why big tech is pursuing dead ends like AI when they could just start using the number 2. ones and zeroes have taken us as far as they can. either chuck a few 2s in there or cede the future of tech to those who will

After Illinois, all I wanted for UM was to beat MSU and go to a bowl.

But uh. I'll take this one. I will really take this one. Mullings caping up on the last drive is like Mikey with the breakup in 22. One play we can't ever forget.
