The right now piling on Caitlin Clark for giving a nonanswer on the trans girls in sports question. "Coward," says Megyn Kelly. Matt Walsh says she's the "biggest coward in the history of sports" for not calling out the "anti-white racism" she's supposedly subjected to. Shut up and dribble indeed!

Arsenal. Some politics and a bunch of other random interesting stuff. And now I have a substack (and you should read it!) https://theworldasitis.substack.com/
It's pretty infuriating that Trump is denying disaster aid to Oregon for political reasons and I have barely heard anything about it, while Biden was falsely accused of doing the exact same thing to North Carolina and millions of people believed that
“Trump has rejected disaster aid for Democratic-run states at the highest rate in the 47-year history of the Federal Emergency Management Agency.” Right now people in blue states are basically paying federal taxes as if they’re colonized territories of red states. www.politico.com/news/2026/03...
Either this doesn't happen or there will be an uproar. I'm jaded/cynical about tariff news, but the potential implications of this are really bad.
I dunno but it should probably be a bigger deal that the White House announced it wants to slap a 100% tariff on drug imports at the same time it is eliminating Medicare drug subsidies. And we’re talking about critical life-saving drugs like insulin, blood thinners, antibiotics, and heart meds.
Elon Musk "Anyone who opposes remigration is a traitor" (25th July 2026) Women with liberal views "have been programmed to destroy western civilisation and don't realise it" (25th July 2026) June 29th: endorses the shooting of "traitors"
really something to see tech YouTuber types calmly discussing the latest Tesla or SpaceX business news without once mentioning Elon’s 50 Day of the Rope posts per day or his murdering 700,000+ people
X owner Elon Musk indicates he would prioritise political violence (assassination of pro-migration politicians is the common sense meaning) over violence against "invaders" (refugees, asylum seekers, maybe ethnic minorities generally) while endorsing call for violence (killing) against both groups
Read this thread. Musks extremism still isn’t taken seriously enough.
Elon Musk, owner of X, has called the editor of the Economist "a traitor to the West, plain and simple" after her recent interview with him. He now argues that "anyone who opposes remigration is a traitor" Musk has been socialising violence since Aug25: "fight or die, that's what it comes down to"
Have been a member of the @whca.bsky.social almost continuously since the 1990s. Our mission is to defend the First Amendment rights of White House correspondents to report on the president without fear or favor. Unfortunately last night did not advance that cause. Time to rethink the dinner.
I went on MS NOW as the White House Correspondents Dinner concluded and talked about the weird spectacle of reporters clapping on cue with a mentalist after Trump's objectively authoritarian threats + how it shows how out of step DC is with our dangerous new moment www.tiktok.com/t/ZTAhVKJ4b/

It’s insane that the regime decided to unconstitutionally refuse to release the rest of the Epstein Files after several major pieces of evidence suggesting Trump committed sex crimes with Jeffrey Epstein came out in the first tranche—and it’s not the biggest scandal in American history.
This is immediate impeachment-and-removal behavior for any other president and all involved cabinet secretaries (who, in any other administration, would have already resigned in disgrace)
Good Night 💤 See you boys soon back at Arsenal Vamosss 🇪🇸🔴⚪🥹
You see those scenes at the final whistle and it’s a delight that Argentina didn’t win.
In the context of what’s been allowed to happen in this game, that’s soft
Just a reminder www.theguardian.com/football/art...

I feel like a bunch of megacorporate ad guys took MDMA and came up with this utterly bonkers halftime show.
The World Cup shouldn't have a half-time show AND this is the greatest half-time show for any sport, ever.
