So many political grievances that both Democrats and Republicans have would be solved if we simply followed Article 1 of the Constitution, putting power back in Congress where it belongs.

Tried introducing the 11 yo to Pink Panther Strikes Again. He laughed but didn’t make it. Will hold on Dr. Strangelove until he’s ready.

The Vikings trading a 2nd or 3rd round pick for a 40 year old QB because they: • Let Kirk Cousins walk the first time • Spent a whole offseason convincing themselves Kyler Murray was the guy • Had no interest in Sam Darnold after 14 wins • Traded their recent Top 10 pick QB, who is now playing very well, for peanuts … is maybe the most malpractice thing I’ve ever seen in my life following sports.
Vikings have identified Raiders QB Kirk Cousins as a prime trade candidate ahead of today’s 4 pm ET deadline, per league sources. The clock is ticking to get a deal done.

Instantly dusty for sports parents
Humble. Driven. Relentless. Loyal. Resilient. You can’t talk about Kevin, the player, without talking about Kevin, the person.

Replying to @AmericanFreedom
@AmericanFreedom is starting an Institute for National Security, @NRO has learned. The center will focus on establishing a strategic advantage over China, reviving the defense industrial base, supporting NATO, and creating a durable peace in the Middle East, all while maintaining free markets at home and addressing the looming debt crisis. “It has become very clear that national security and domestic policy are more intertwined than they’ve ever been,” @TimChapman tells me. nationalreview.com/news/penc…

Term limits: ~60% of the next House class will have served 6 years or fewer. Putting that aside, it's a terrible strategy when you need to win back so many seats to ever see the majority again!
🚨BREAKING: House Freedom Caucus leadership just dropped a lame-duck roadmap for @SpeakerJohnson and @LeaderJohnThune. Strip Democrat leverage. Deliver real wins. Do it before the clock runs out. No leaving town until it’s done — let’s finish the job!

The lame duck session has enough GOP members in both chambers who are happy to give the president and leadership nothing. They are the captains now.

People in the comments giving DC a hard time over this when his number one attribute as a coach is the culture he builds.
#Lions coach Dan Campbell said Christian Mahogany didn't play today because of disciplinary "team rules."

Last night’s loss was humiliating but it’s this post-game attitude that convinced me he’s not Michigan’s guy. Pay him out.
Kyle Whittingham on keeping Michigan motivated for its last 3 games: "It's my job as a coach to rally them back up and get them ready to compete for these last three games. ... I don't know, are there any more trophies in these last three games? I don't think there's any more trophies. Anyway..." 🎥 : Michigan Athletics
