Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, is it?

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

Meanwhile over at truth Social, the former president is busy confessing to crimes.

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

The willow is too close to the house.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

Come on, man.

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

No one could have predicted…

Republicans do not pay their debts.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

A last alliance of elves and men. also pet photos.

He really is that stupid.

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

    Was surprised to see NBC put camera on somebody with a “comme de fuck down” hat. Come on, Hamilton! 25 more laps!

    Warnings are real?

    First place 25 pt, 5th 10. Lewis down 24 before this race.

    @Mike J: (Sorry to jump in with a different competition, but didn’t want to go off topic in a serious thread, and this is still in the world of sport. The Germany – England fight in F1 right now is probably a lot closer than Germany – Ukraine will be.)

    Somewhat off-topic
    I see three Muslims listed in Deutschland’s starting XI: Özil, Khedira, and Mustafi. (They’ve probably skipped fasting on this matchday.) Özil drew some flak from right-wing party AfD (Alternative für Deutschland) for flaunting his Muslmness: he posted on social media some pix from his recent umrah (non-Haj pilgrimage to Mecca).

    @SRW1:
    There was also that “You wouldn’t want Jerome Boateng for a neighbour” nonsense, which went down very well — not.

    Germany might be dominating this game but Ukraine have made enough clear cut chances to be at least level. How Boateng kept that out I can only grasp in slow-motion.

    @Tony J:
    I think it was Howedes who tweeted, “Wenn man Titel für Deutschland gewinnen will, braucht man Nachbarn wie Boateng.”

    I was studying in Germany when they won in ’96. It was so much fun to pack into a student house with a couple crates of beer and enjoy the games.

    @SRW1:

    They’ll soon change their tune if he tries another dodgy pass along the back four like that one!

    Ukraine certainly aren’t rolling over for the German Machine, I can see them nicking a point here unless the Germans up their attacking tempo.

    It is interesting to note the sides which are multiracial (Germany, England, France ) and the sides for countries that have not integrated s couple generations if immigrants (eg. n ireland, Poland )

    In response to the violence at the England-Russia match, both sides have been warned of disqualification

    Witnesses said trouble began in the stadium after flares were let off by Russian fans near the end of the game. Some then climbed across barriers designed to keep rival fans apart.

    . Some of the Russian “fans” were masking their faces and wearing MMA gloves.

    Uh, Neuer should have been carded and facing a penalty kick for that barge. What are the assistant referees on the line for, exactly?

    Watched the Columbia v Costa Rica game last night with someone who also does some officiating, and he was also unsure what that official does back behind the goal;)

    @Randinho: I can imagine. Krauts were lucky to escape with a won. But sweet mother of kicking a ball, they have some serious talent in the attacking end. What movement and passing, such skill, so much wow.
