I remember the Knicks threw Jeremy Lin under the bus. Despicable.
Jun 10
Jeremy Lin reveals he tried to reject the Rockets' $29,000,000 offer and would have taken significantly less to stay with the Knicks ā€œI was crushed and my agent is telling me, ā€˜Be prepared that they won't match.’ And I'm like, ā€˜There's no way. There's no way. I got to go back to New Yorkā€™ā€ ā€œThey could have offered me three years, $9 million, but there wasn't even that offer on the table. And when the Rockets offer came in, the first question I asked my agent is, ā€˜Are the Knicks going to match this?ā€™ā€ ā€œI was like, ā€˜Can you go back to the Rockets and tell them we won't accept this offer? We only want a lower offer.’ I tried to take less. I was trying to sabotage the Rockets offer.ā€ ā€œI remember it vividly. I call my agent back and I'm like, ā€˜Okay, the offer came through. No, we have to get a less lucrative offer because I got to go back to New Yorkā€™ā€ ā€œFinally I'm like, ā€˜Can we just not accept their offer?’ And he's like, ā€˜No, we can't not accept their offer because the Knicks refuse to give us any offer. You have zero offers on the table. You have one offer and you have to accept it and leave it to the Knicks to match or notā€™ā€ ā€œIt was kind of difficult to see that people thought I willingly left the Knicks or did it for the money or whatever. I would have played for significantly less if that meant staying with the Knicks because my heart was always hereā€

I can’t remember the last time I agreed with Stephen A. Smith. But when you’re right. You’re right.
ā€œI’m blaming the president for the United States of America If the New York Knicks lose this tonight. It is selfish…. This is not the place for the president to be coming. He knows it. He just doesn’t care.ā€ — @stephenasmith on Donald Trump

BREAKING: Ken Paxton’s own lawyer just endorsed James Talarico: ā€œI defended Ken Paxton for years in the impeachment trial and in state criminal cases. But in my view, I think Ken has lost sight of his core mission, which is to represent the people of Texas.Ā  And unlike Ken, I believe that you, James, believe in unity over division and that you know how to assemble not only Democrats but Independents and Republicans and we need that right now.Ā  We need unity, we don't need any more division and that's why I'm supporting you.ā€

This is totally absurd. Yet MAGA believes the message hook line and sinker. Blame Biden for everything wrong in America. 🤣
Sen. Roger Marshall on screwworm: "This is another thing we can thank Joe Biden for"
Community note
The screwworm outbreak began in Panama in 2023 and spread northward through infested livestock and wildlife in Central America and Mexico before the first US case was confirmed in Texas on June 3, 2026; no evidence links it to human migrants crossing the US border. cdc.gov/new-world-scre… aphis.usda.gov/news/agency-an…

She said the quiet parts out loud. Truth to power.
Of all the selfish, narcissistic things Trump has done, attending MSG to see the Knicks play in person Monday night is the absolute worst. 20,000 attendees will be MASSIVELY inconvenienced for all the extra security, the Knicks Watch Party at Garden Is canceled, thousands of extra law enforcement officers will be required (paid for by taxpayers), traffic will be a disaster -- all so he can sit in the Garden rather than watch the game on TV. Presidents ought to be willing to sacrifice once in awhile.

Thank you Elon! 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
BREAKING: DOGE DISASTER! Huge outbreak of deadly flesh-eating parasites erupts in Texas cattle thanks to Trump and Elon’s DOGE cuts! Eradicated from the U.S. for a half-century, a dangerous flesh-eating parasite known as the New World screwworm is back, thanks in part to the Trump administration’s tariff squabbles with Mexico and foreign aid cuts. Detected in a Texas calf near the Mexican border, the discovery is triggering serious fears for the American cattle industry and already sky-high beef prices. The parasite’s larvae burrow into living tissue of livestock (and occasionally pets or humans), causing severe damage and potential death if untreated. This marks the first confirmed case in Texas since 1966. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins says they’ve deployed teams, started quarantines, and are releasing sterile flies, but the Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller ripped the federal response as too slow and ineffective. He’s now calling on Trump to ā€œthrow every available federal resourceā€ at the problem before it becomes a full-blown disaster. The outbreak comes at the worst possible time. The U.S. cattle herd is already at its lowest level in 75 years, and beef prices are through the roof. A wider infestation could cost the industry billions and hammer American families at the grocery store. Critics point directly at Trump administration policies that likely worsened the situation. First, ongoing trade disputes and tariff threats with Mexico have slowed joint eradication efforts. Elon Musk's DOGE dismantling of USAID has seriously hampered regional efforts to stop the parasite’s northward march through Central America and Mexico. And finally, the administration’s dismissive approach to climate change, even as warming temperatures expand the areas where this pest can thrive. Once again, Trump’s incoherent ā€œAmerica Firstā€ agenda of trade wars, aid slashing, and science denial is coming back to bite American agriculture and consumers in the wallet. MAGA gets its jollies by ā€œowning the libsā€ by cutting funding for policies that protect the country against the outbreak of disease, but right now a literal flesh-eating parasite is showing up on our southern border and now we are much less prepared to handle it. If this latest Trump-era disaster has you furious about rising costs and incompetent governance, like and share!

He’s a brave man speaking truth to power. Suspect an orange šŸŠ person will want him blackballed from UFC.
Bryce Mitchell on Trump's White House UFC fight: Our government is desecrating its role in society by entertaining sports. Our government is to protect and serve the people. Our tax dollars and resources are funding this operation. The government is supposed to protect us, not entertain us.

Not just an NFL lesson. A life lesson. Money doesn’t grow on trees. Contrary to popular belief. You don’t have to spend it as fast as you make it.
Rob Gronkowski says he lived off $50,000 as an NFL rookie because he understood the NFL meant "Not For Long" "My agent gave me a $50,000 advance for what's going to come in the marketing world for myself. I just had to pay him back within the first $50,000 I made" "I was able to purchase my first car, which was a 2008 Escalade, and then to be able to pay rent once I got to New England. And then from there on out, I really didn't need any other money" "I was getting free meals at the facility. I just kind of needed gas money. You go out, the drinks are free or you pay for one, you get 10 free when you're when you're on the Patriots up in the Boston area" "So I wasn't really spending much money at all, especially when it got to the season. I mean, you're inside that building and everything's handed to you on a daily basis from breakfast all the way to dinner" "I just lived off my marketing dollars. I was living a low-level life. I had a condo with a roommate that was on the team as well. We're paying $1,500 a month in rent while in the NFL" "I was very frugal and that's how I got away with it. Not having any lavish purchases, the first couple years in the league and just banking away what I was making because I truly understood that the NFL stands for not for long"

This is true.
Rep. Nancy Mace says she has seen the Epstein client list and warns that the names on it will shock the entire world. She adds, as a Republican, that the DOJ is protecting those identities. According to Mace, the list includes both Republicans and Democrats, along with wealthy elites, media figures, people in power, and even current and former prime ministers and presidents. She says the Epstein case will go down as one of the greatest cover-ups in American history.
