Choosing a school or buying a house is where every American gets their orientation in US systemic racism. Previous legal segregation and combined with paying for schools with local property taxes is one of the crowning achievements of systemic racism. It lets "well-meaning" people participate in it.

The WHPC sucks, especially under Nora. She allowed her reporters to abuse KJP when Biden was president, but never stands up for the women Trump trashes in her press corp and rolls over for him constantly. I bet if it wasn't CNN who got axed she wouldn't have done anything.

There is no debate that a free press with broad access to our elected officials, as guaranteed by the First Amendment, is a cornerstone of our democracy. It is through the work of a free press that Americans learn how their elected officials conduct the public’s business and are able to hold. . .

I happened to be looking in the mirror at the exact moment my iPhone started to ping, which was five minutes after my Apple Watch told me “I’m sorry I can’t help find your devices right now,” four minutes after I had found it myself, and three minutes after I’d forgotten I’d asked Siri where it was.

The two salient questions are: 1) who *did* you vote for? and 2) how did you *openly* express your support for the correct candidate outside of the secrecy of the ballot box.

A lot of the blame for the WNBA turning into a traveling circus of culture wars over the past two months should be put on Cathy Engelbert — and, by extension, Adam Silver. Say what you want about David Stern, but he would’ve squashed this a long time ago.

If Democrats take back Congress and the White House, restoring voting rights will be a top priority, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said. While the party will focus on issues like lowering costs, he insisted it’ll also need to repair the foundations of democracy, including judicial reform.

So ESPN fires a bunch of folks so that they can pay Pat McAfee a gazillion dollars to have Aaron Rogers on his show give idiotic self righteous diatribes. It’s almost like they don’t really wanna keep politics out of sports, just a certain kind of politics.
