Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

To be fair, it’s a win if you go to a James Blunt and Tal Bachman actually shows up and starts playing “Shes So High”
This ad about how great Google Gemini is ends by telling us how Ted, the protagonist and a big James Blunt fan, “found something he didn’t even know he was looking for” at a James Blunt concert where James Blunt is playing not “High” by James Blunt but “She’s So High” by Tal Bachman.

Israel justified its strike on the Nasser Hospital, which killed six journalists and more than a dozen others, by claiming a "Hamas" camera was set up there.
The location they attacked is where Reuters and the AP livestream.

It's crazy. I feel like all this comes off the back of years of people on the right saying, "Cities aren't Safe! They are all violent slumtowns!" And if they actually go to these cities, they see that's not true. But all the people in support of this, don't live in the cities.
Kristi Noem says the administration is "going from city to city around this country and pressuring these politicians to get on board with keeping their people safe. What is going to be the story here in Washington can happen in Chicago, Boston, San Francisco ... "

Are we 100% sure we didn’t clear out our entire medical team at Spurs last season? This Maddison news SUCKS. What a depressing summer window so far, apart from Kudus; hard to believe we improve much in the league while competing in CL.
