I think we're at the point where we can incredibly comfortably say that your attitude towards Reform, Restore, MAGA, the AfD etc is how you'd have responded to fascism in the 1930s

Maybe it was time, but sad to see Gabriel Martinelli go, & I think he deserved better from certain people when it came to his departure. Fans connect with players who they can see love the club, and he was one of those from his very 1st appearance. He leaves as a champion, and he deserved that.

The optics of this broadcast, where the two white guys are in the center and set farther back than the four Black former players who are looking on incredulously but also are not really invited to be part of the conversation, make this so much more awkward than just the garbage Silver is spewing.

Video of what appears to be multiple @tps.ca officers tackling & arresting a cyclist during a stop sign trap on the MGT. Cyclist - "What did I do wrong?" Cop - "You didn't stop." If true, this is excessive use of force for a traffic stop. Mayor Chow & @ausmalik.bsky.social plz look into this.

Finally got a high-res photo of the tifo. It's even better than I thought. Seeing Arsenal as the main ship with the ripped sails of every team we’ve beaten, languishing behind on the ships was a great concept. The detail of the club badges is elite. Fabulous work! ⛵
The Arsenal tifo from the Champions League semi-final 2nd leg against Atlético Madrid. Arsenal depicted as the main ship with all the other ships representing the teams we have beaten. Their club badges are on the sails which all happen to be ripped.

In the Toronto Star I write about Toronto Police's violent corruption scandal. Will it move the needle on police reform? It's a dramatic escalation in a long history of police intimidation, bullying their critics & broken trust. I argue 3 big things have to happen, including firing this chief.

NEW Statement from the family of Alex Pretti:
Statement from the family of Alex Pretti: 

"We are heartbroken but also very angry.

Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly. However his last thought and act was to protect a woman.

The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed.

Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man.”
