That punt coverage of the Houston Texans was PURE TRASH. THREE players over pursue. They easily had the Jaguars punted hemmed up and they just all ran right. He ran the other way. Now down 17-0. We punted due to Mills taking a delay of game, almost throw INT, then takes a sack.

These Houston Texans are PATHETIC in 2025. No CJ Stroud. Backup David Mills throws an INT on the 1st drive. The Jaguars kick a 55-yard FG but we get a 15-yard unsportsmanlike penalty. 1st down. Defense holds them to a FG. Now we fumble on the kickoff. WTF is going on with this team?

ICE grabs father by the neck—send him into violent seizure while his arms lock up around his toddler.

"He's having seizure and they're trying to rip the baby out of his hands!"

Agents then handcuff him—before putting in ambulance with his child.

Mother is detained by agents as target of arrest.

ICYMI #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Get ya facts straight! Roland rips Stephen A. Smith over his Rep. Jasmine Crockett take youtu.be/DbInluO7IgM?...

Last week on #RolandMartinUnfiltered, I dealt with Stephen A Smith’s recent comments on Rep. Jasmine Crockett. Then he goes on The Pivot and makes more factually incorrect comments. I’ll be doing a massive fact check tonight on #RolandMartinUnfiltered. Watch here www.youtube.com/live/zHGDMfF...

Trump is now going after Jack Smith.

You know who seems safe from his retribution: Merrick Garland. Because he did JACK SHIT. Trump not being pissed at him is, low key, an indictment of his entire tenure.

The fight here with Gorsuch and Kav vs Nelson is whether the "use" of race automatically means "discrimination" on the basis of race.

That's interesting to me, because it's basically the white folks telling on themselves. They cannot see a "use" of race that isn't synonymous with discrimination.

Alito is saying that the black population in Louisiana is not geographically "compact" enough for the black population in Louisiana to have fair voting rights.

Kavanaugh looking to find the "end point" when the Court no longer has to worry about the intentional use of race to create black districts.
I'd say "WHEN WHITE FOLKS STOP INTENTIONALLY USING RACE TO DECREASE BLACK VOTING POWER" but he thinks white people doing that is cool.

It's important to note that Roberts and Kavanaugh were the two Republicans who broke from their party in the Alabama case. So their questions matter most here.

Alito asks If a majority of one race overwhelming vote for one party regardless of the race of the candidate, is that racial bloc voting?

Nelson says of course. Alito says, somehow, no. It's just political voting.

Roberts is saying that the court's own precedent from a couple of years ago, where it ruled that Alabama had to draw racial fair maps, doesn't apply to this (identical) case, essentially because the Alabama case was poorly argued.
It's a terrible argument, but the hill Roberts is gonna die on.

Locking in for oral arguments on the big voting rights case at the Supreme Court.

The next two hours or so will be... incredibly bad.

The consequences of what she did are a year off to write a book (which will be published) and then landing a high prestige job immediately
