'Dict Picks Prediction Casinos, Jury Does Its Duty

People arenโ€™t just predicting, theyโ€™re betting. And theyโ€™re betting on in-pocket slot machines that deploy all the most addicting techniques from casinos, social media apps, and online games. Think of it as a โ€˜Dict-a-Phone.

Yes they lie about everything including what you see with your own eyes, but I'm sure the job report numbers are totally legit.

Sobrevivรญ Surviving Halftime, Dark Side D

During my first day of Spanish, my teacher asked, โ€œCรณmo te llamas?โ€ I answered, โ€œBien, y tu?โ€ So for me, the Bad Bunny halftime show arrived too late. For its critics, including our Complainer in Chief, the message of the show couldnโ€™t come soon enough.

Welcome to NBC, where Europe doesnโ€™t hate JD Vance and Green Day doesnโ€™t call out MAGA.

Hopefully, theyโ€™ll give us the real game score.

All the Super Bowl reporters are shocked that San Francisco is awesome because the right wing has been lying about it for so long.

Guys, theyโ€™ve been lying about everything else, too.

NBC appears to cut crowdโ€™s booing of JD Vance from Winter Olympics broadcast The US vice-president, JD Vance, was greeted by a chorus of boos during when he appeared at the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics in Milan on Friday

In one year, weโ€™ve become a nation booed by its allies and a nation where the media distorts reality to avoid offending those who have led us to this point.

Iโ€™ve been working to identify the staffer responsible for the racist Trump post, and Iโ€™ve narrowed it down to three suspects: John Barron, John Miller, or David Dennison.

The Lyin King Going Full Racist, Weekend Whats

The news here is not Trumpโ€™s toddler on cocaine-like lack of social media impulse control. Nor is it his overt racism. That, after all, is his most consistent trait.

I just got a phishing scam text and my first thought was how refreshing it is that it's not a political fundraising text.

On one side of the desk, politicians stood by as Trump personally attacked Kaitlin Collins. On the other side of the desk, her colleagues did the same.

A country doesnโ€™t fall this far this fast without teamwork.

This cannot be something a civilian law enforcement agent is allowed to wear in the US โ€” and an agency that has a culture that tolerates this cannot be saved.
