Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor released after arrest on suspicion of misconduct British police confirmed that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor -- formerly known as Prince Andrew -- was arrested on Thursday on suspicion of misconduct in public office.

Interesting how other countries can actually respond to this type of behavior. US?

@chriscillizza.bsky.social Your vid on Trump running for a 3rd term suggests he could run as VP w/Pres resigning. From 22nd amendment: "no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States." Doesn't this preclude the swap?

Try as I might to avoid hearing the insanity that is Fox "News," I heard Will Cain suggest Trump deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. Are these people just fucking crazy!

Your last item was especially interesting. At my age and current ability level, not to mention being beaten down by trying to find work in years gone by, I don't look for employment any more. But I would add to the discussion that a lot of people (qualified & capable) simply don't get hired.

LeBron bemoans ring culture: 'It's never enough' LeBron James criticized the discourse around "ring culture" in the NBA, pushing back on the idea that a player's greatness is measured by how many championships he wins.

Seriously? "You play to win the game" (which ultimately means "championships"). Are we really getting this soft? #NBA #LeBronJames

Last shot, best shot. Finished a first draft of a novel I've worked on for years (some on again, off again). Red O'Ryan rides again...?

Steelers signed Aaron Rodgers after failing on two other QB options, per report Pittsburgh made the most of the offseason quarterback market, but Rodgers wasn't the Steelers' first priority

Pathetic. They are so stuck in the '70s. You trade for Fields, you want to keep him, then do it! #Steelers

Sources: Rodgers with Steelers, inks $13M+ deal Aaron Rodgers has signed a one-year, $13.65 million deal with the Steelers, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter, a deal that includes $10 million guaranteed.

Only the #Steelers could take 3 full seasons to replace Roethlisberger with a guy less than 2 years younger than he is now. That said I like most of their off-season moves. Had to have Rodgers at this point. Don't get Pickens trade. Hope OSU kid develops.

Amazing to watch mama birds take care of their babies. See it up close almost every year.

of a third term. Note how Bannon makes a point to say HE and OTHERS are talking about a third term, not Trump. A) That's bullshit. And B) Think about why Bannon would be so hell bent on Trump running again if, in fact, Trump actually wasn't interested. Bannon pulling the strings on Trump?

YouTube video by Brian Tyler Cohen Top Trump adviser issues CHILLING news on Trump live on air

4/13/25 Saturday night on Bill Mahr's show I saw Bannon again say Trump will run in '28. A clip of it opens this video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGdO.... While I think the host of this video can be over the top, I agree that they are saying this now to repeat it over and over to normalize the idea...

Two thoughts: I thought it would take him until about July 1 to start making this much noise about blatantly breaking the law. And, does no one in the Republican Party have any desire to be president? Besides all the other BS, I truly don’t understand them ceding power to this dumb old man.

NBC News asked about a possible scenario in which Vice President JD Vance would run for office and then pass the role to Trump. Trump responded that “that’s one” method.
“But there are others, too,” Trump added.

Trump won’t rule out seeking a third term in the White House, tells NBC News ‘there are methods’ for doing so President Donald Trump said in a Sunday-morning phone call that he was “not joking” about a third term, adding that “it is far too early to think about it.”

Saw this today from www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...:
When asked whether he has been presented with plans to allow him to seek a third term, Trump said, “There are methods which you could do it.”

Constitutional amendment to allow Trump third term introduced in the House President Donald Trump has hinted at the possibility of somehow serving a third term in office.

Btw, here's a source for what I mentioned in terms of Trump supporters already trying to create an amendment to allow him to run for a third term, www.nbcnewyork.com/news/busines....

best part, they're trying to write it so Obama still can't run (cowards)...or they will create a truly fake emergency to let Trump run.

Quite frankly, it's the only thing he wants to do. Run. It strokes his fragile ego to do his little rallies and prattle on, etc. They will try (and already are trying) to create a new amendment to allow a third term...

YouTube video by NewsNation Trump will run and win again in 2028: Steve Bannon in full NewsNation interview | CUOMO

And so it begins. A third term is ILLEGAL. This is NOT about America. It's NOT about democracy. It's about Trump's ego and making him a king. I said he would try to run again right after he won in '24, and this is the clearest signal yet that he will.

Trump touts "great honor" of winning tournament at his own golf course The president announced he won a golf tournament at one of his clubs on Sunday.

Reminds me of "Mr. Mom" when all of the wife's co-workers were jumping on Michael Keaton's character so the boss could win the company picnic "Olympics." #wannabe

Agreed w/a post on Twitter - didn't watch the Selection Show. Wondering aloud...Big 5 sucks, Sixers suck, does it drain our interest in the Philly area in the Tourney? I'll still watch and likely gamble on it, but it ain't what it used to be.

My book covers

(I'm currently enjoying working on a novel with the character Red O'Ryan, aka Super Crip.)

Interesting stuff from all three people -- thx.

I'm still torn between leaving and being able to flip elon the bird on his own platform.

Did you leave Twitter?

Sad to see what's happening at CNN.

Sources: Bears' Tomlin call rebuffed by Steelers The Bears recently called the Steelers to see whether they would be allowed to talk to Mike Tomlin in an attempt to trade for him, only to have Pittsburgh rebuff their inquiry, sources told ESPN.

#Steelers continue to be stuck in the 1970s. This simply makes zero sense. They should be jumping at the chance to move on from Tomlin. I don't get "trading a coach," just fire the guy, but why rebuff trade offers?
