I’ve just spent some time in Assisi, birthplace of St. Francis. Beautiful town in a beautiful setting and easily the most commercially exploitative place trading on a revered religious figure I’ve see. St Francis gave up his worldly possessions, he did not try to sell kitchen magnets or tee shirts

“Credibility “? So the DSA wants Democrats to lose, but their candidates are running on the Democratic ticket, and they want us to help their candidates win. Do you see how crazy this is?

UEFA has voted unanimously to boycott all FIFA competitions, including the World Cup, in a massive escalation against FIFA President Gianni Infantino’s $20 billion plan to sell minority stakes in the tournament to private investors.

Ross Douthat an opinion columnist at The New York Times, will join the CBS News program 60 Minutes. For those of you who don’t know, Ross is a pompous ass who is barely readable. Nice hire Bari. Next up, Hugh Hewitt.

Americans wagered $ 166 billion on sports betting in 2025, more than they spent on movies, art, museums and music combined. No comment needed other than it tell you everything you need to know about the current state of this country .

There's a famous story about Joe Stalin making a speech in 1937. When he was done, the audience began clapping wildly but then everyone was afraid to stop. They kept going for 11 minutes. Finally one guy had enough and stopped, and then everyone else could too. That guy was imprisoned for 10 years.

9  Damnatio memoriae is a Latin phrase meaning “condemnation of memory." It refers to the ancient Roman practice of officially erasing a disgraced person from history. The destruction of their statues, the chiseling of their names from public monuments, and the nullification of their decrees.

NBA is rigged! when Spurs had 29 point lead the game should have been immediately stopped and Spurs declared winner. Instead officials decides to play "4th quarter?" and Knicks "somehow" score enough baskets to win. Fraud!

The quick and precise analysis of Donald Trump Jrs “Enhanced Games” which just took place in Las Vegas. “CEO Maximillion Martin said the event is “here to stay,” making The Enhanced Games the herpes of the sports world. We’ll see an occasional unwelcome flare-up, and be happy when it’s gone”.

The constant pimping of betting apps during sporting events is really disturbing. Take the PGA as a case in point. A ban on gambling advertising should be considered. Then again when most jobs dry up due to AI at least people will have something to do.

Iran has since said it would prefer not to deal with the Kushner or Witkoff, as regime officials said they viewed negotiations with them as a front by the Trump administration to trick Iran into thinking they were negotiating in good faith, when the U.S. really just wanted to launch an attack.

If you are a football fan I’d suggest watching the documentary “ Rise of the 49ers, The Gold Standard “ on AMC. I’m biased since I’m a life long fan but it’s very interesting. More than anything it’s a fascinating study of Bill Walsh. Joe, Steve, Jerry, Ronnie and Eddie are the supporting cast.

This is an index of democratic backsliding complied by the Financial Times ( no bastion of progressive thought) that compares the trajectory of the United States under Trump with those of other nations we used to view as cautionary tales. We’re on a uniquely steep descent, at least for modern times.

Trump is suing the IRS for 10 Billion dollars.Thinking about this one makes my head hurt.You are suing an agency you have direct control over. How the fuck is that going to work. Probably “ just write the check fellows and we are good “. Better yet send crypto to a numbered account in the Caymans.
