This is INSANE
The NFL and the Philadelphia Eagles almost killed Jalen Hurts for a Week 5 international showcase. ​The full details of what happened behind closed doors in London just surfaced, and the negligence is staggering. ​Before kickoff in London, Hurts was in a hospital bed until 4:00 AM undergoing emergency vascular testing. Medical staff instructed him not to sleep because sleep was considered an active health risk. ​Instead of shutting down their $255 million franchise quarterback, the team cleared him to play 60 minutes of brutal, high-impact collision football on zero sleep. ​Then, they loaded him onto a pressurized, 8-hour transatlantic flight back to Philadelphia. ​Every doctor on the planet knows that long-haul flights and cabin pressure are the exact triggers that cause lower-extremity blood clots to break free. The Eagles spent days assuring the public it was just a "minor, superficial calf clot". ​Now the truth comes out: the clot dislodged, shot through his bloodstream, and caused multiple pulmonary emboli in his lungs. ​Hurts is officially out for the season, placed on blood thinners where taking a single routine tackle could cause a fatal internal hemorrhage. ​He isn't just lucky to play football again, he is lucky to be alive. ​When the NFL preaches "player safety," remember this moment. They ran a human being into the ground for television ratings in the UK, almost lost him to a preventable medical catastrophe, and cratered their entire season in the process. ​Who inside that building signed off on letting him play and board that flight?

No one should be above the law. Especially this guy
Translation: he's committed A LOT of crimes

Those men were not ICE
RAPE GANG OR ICE? BOTH? No ID. No badges. No uniform. An unmarked van. Masked men grabbing people off the street. How is anyone supposed to know the difference? PAXIS.app helps citizens and immigrants understand their rights during encounters with ICE and other federal immigration agents: what you can ask, what you do not have to consent to, and how to document what happens. It’s free and donation-funded. Help keep it that way: GoFundMe.com/PAXIS. This is the kind of shit we grew up hearing about happening in the Soviet Union, North Korea, Pinochet’s Chile and Argentina’s Dirty War: unidentified men, concealed faces, unmarked vehicles, people disappearing into state custody. Now Americans are watching scenes that look horrifyingly familiar. A badge hidden under a mask does not create public trust. Record EVERYTHING. Preserve evidence. Demand accountability.

Heck, teachers can’t even give ids lip balm or hand lotion
Teachers can’t even give kids Tylenol without their parents’ permission. If you believe this you’re a fucking idiot.

What the hell
NEWLY UNCOVERED AUDIO: Texas GOP US Senate candidate Ken Paxton calls the Uvalde shooting a "plan" by "God" and says "life is short” about children murdered in an elementary school. This man is vile.

💯
If taxpayers are going to subsidize stadiums for billionaire NFL owners the league shouldn’t be able to broadcast games on streaming only platforms.

What
"President Trump demands Canada change its French language, Quebec culture and Canadian identity as a condition for reversing tariffs. This is no longer about a trade deal-it is about a takeover of Canada's sovereignty and identity."

An active-duty member of the United States military stood on the steps of the Capitol, in uniform, and called for the impeachment, conviction, and removal of Donald Trump. He was arrested. He didn’t stumble into this. He knew exactly what he was doing. Under Department of Defense rules and the Uniform Code of Military Justice, active-duty service members are heavily restricted from engaging in partisan political activity, especially in uniform. Depending on how this is charged, he could be facing violations like Article 92 (failure to obey orders or regulations), and for officers, even Article 88 (contempt toward officials). That’s not a slap on the wrist, that’s career-ending territory. Court-martial, loss of rank, forfeited pay, even prison time are all on the table. He risked everything: his career, his pension, his freedom, and the future he built inside the military. And he did it anyway. You don’t have to agree with what he said to recognize what it took to say it. Real courage isn’t reserved for safe opinions or popular moments. It shows up when the cost is clear, and you move forward anyway. The military demands discipline and neutrality for a reason. But history is full of moments where individuals inside institutions decided that staying silent was the greater violation. That tension, between duty to the system and duty to conscience, is where this story lives. Maybe you think he crossed a line. Maybe you think he drew one. But let’s not pretend this was casual. This was deliberate. This was informed. This was someone fully aware of the consequences choosing to act anyway. Time will decide how this moment is remembered. It always does. But one thing is undeniable: he knew the price, and he spoke anyway. VIA!~~~ Melinda Fulton

Hahahahaha!!! The grift goes on
You didn’t design shit. This is an off the shelf rebrand of a device made by Wingtech called the Revvl 7Pro 5G and was available at T-Mobile for $0. The 7Pro has been replaced by the 8Pro because this thing is over 18 months old. And this is old stock that they bought to avoid a lawsuit.

I love this dude
Alex Lyon is a classic. He’s 1 of 1. You just can’t say “nutty goalie”. The dude is introspective and is always willing to offer some sharp analysis. And there are moments where you realize he went to Yale and is about a whole lot more than hockey too.

A dad breaks down in tears as he watched his son pitch in his first MLB game, and throw his first career strikeout. His son’s childhood dream coming true right in front of him. Incredible. This is what every father lives for, seeing his children succeed. Powerful moment. Video: ESPN
