Harry Redknapp doesn't think Man City should be punished for fiddling the books. That's Harry Redknapp who opened a bank account in Monaco in the name of his dog to avoid tax.

Nicki Minaj isn’t a U.S. citizen, so she can’t even vote herself. For a network that pushed false claims about noncitizens voting, you’d think they’d mention that. If this is about getting Black women to vote red, I’m here to tell you that black women are smarter than all of us.

Schmitt: "Did you attend a Hawks game on February 3rd?" Smith: "That is incorrect. I was in Hollywood attending a dinner gathering at the home of actor Ethan Hawke." Schmitt: "AHA! WE GOT YOU!"

I didnt know it gets funnier than a whole ass United States Senator accusing a man of being at a Hawks game in ATL when he was at a Hawkeyes game in MD, BUT... He let every media outlet know he had a big moment coming so they all saw him clown himself and watched Amy Klobuchar clean up the pieces.

Letitia Chitty (d. #OTD in 1982) was a pioneering British structural engineer & mathematician. A master of stress analysis, she spent her career mathematically determining the "breaking points" of complex structures, ranging from #WWI combat aircraft to major international dams. #WomenInSTEM
A monochromatic sepia-toned photograph of British structural engineer and mathematician Letitia Chitty (July 15, 1897 – September 29, 1982), a premier pioneer of 20th-century stress analysis. Positioned in a front-facing, head-and-shoulders composition, she looks directly at the camera with a sober, neutral expression and tight lips. Her dark hair is parted neatly down the center and pulled back into a simple bun. She is dressed in a dark blazer or coat layered over a high-collared, patterned blouse or knit sweater visible at the neckline. The background consists of soft, textured drapery in warm, out-of-focus sepia tones. The tight framing captures her sharp, determined demeanor, evoking a serious and intellectually focused mood. The vintage composition highlights her immense historical significance as the first woman to graduate with first-class honors in Cambridge’s Mechanical Sciences Tripos.

WARNING: Do NOT try this at home. Sen. Schmitt brought a poster board, a perjury trap & zero fact-checkers. Result? Atlanta Hawks ≠ Iowa Hawkeyes. Jack Smith was watching Caitlin Clark in Maryland. Lesson: Research first. Gloat second. Or you ARE the cautionary tale.

In high school, my teachers taught us to investigate source material. Where information came from, who was telling it, who they were telling it to. Not all information is created equal. Anyway, it took me a while to realize that level of analysis, fundamental in my life, is not widely taught.
