I saw platner speak once, before the latest revelations came out. I said to the folks around me: love his message. Love his voice. He’s really good on a podium and did the basics really well. Also: I believe every accuser and the ones to come. It was so obvious.

After 16 years of Viktor Orbán's rule, Hungary's state television has suspended its news broadcasts for restructuring. The main state TV channel, M1, displayed a black screen with the following message: "Public media must not lie. We apologize for doing so for many years."

Oh Egypt. Such a bummer. Fewer and fewer teams to actually support.

They remembered they can play soccer for a minute.

America once again looks to black people to save it.
