Editor’s note at the bottom “Information in this article was updated to clarify that there is no verifiable evidence Robert Kraft and Ed Sheeran have donated or committed to donate to aid in Gaza or Palestine” literally contradicts the headline lol

Republicans, in their infinite wisdom, left a big gambling loophole in the Medicaid work requirements. I'm no fan of the gambling industry, but if you are on Medicaid and struggling to deal with the work requirements, taking a $580 bet on both sides of an outcome is one way of getting around them.
Ontario's police governance is custom-built to obscure oversight and accountability, perhaps the single example of our institutions functioning precisely as they're intended, indeed at a very high level.

A Dave you know you know@notjustdave.bsky.social · 10h ago"the actual history of NDP provincial governments in Canada is one of higher real wage growth, higher corporate profit growth and smaller deficits than Conservative and Liberal ones. ... it’s a striking contrast to the story Conservatives in Alberta like to tell."

It’s not often we get to witness such craven reputation laundering in real time. The only question left is whether Sheeran is dumb or complicit.
Craig Thomler @craigthomler.bsky.social · 23h agoMacklemore is donating the $1 million he earnt from the tour with to charities supporting innocent Palestinians harmed by Israel’s genocide.

Not only did I meet Robert Kraft, I worked for him. His kid Jonathan asked me to “remove the black music” from my gameday playlist in ‘94 & I refused so they fired me. I was the cheerleader director at the time.  I sued them for wrongful termination and won. So yes, I know that motherfucker.

This Kid Rock x Ed Sheeran tour is gonna be epic
KAEPERNICK: The part that I hope people take away in this moment is what Robert Kraft and what they’re saying by denying Macklemore is they are openly colluding. They also want people to know that if you take an action that they don’t agree with, they will come for you.

Unlike Macklemore, these support acts don’t have big followings and they are giving up their chance to perform to stadiums to push back against censorship, not of themselves but of a fellow artist. Respect.
