Every single #NBA player today should be Thankful for this man, Oscar Robertson.
Without Oscar, there would be no unrestricted free agency, no 100+ million dollar contracts & no player empowerment !
Happy Birthday Big Oβ π

Not going to read too much into it, obviously Trump is the worst man alive, and is going to revert to saying the most odious shit imaginable in like an hour, but it's funny that this is coming a couple hours after 90 democrat losers voted to say "socialism is bad" for no reason.

The Trump administration is prosecuting journalist Tim Burke for exposing Tucker Carlson's whitewashing of antisemite Ye, formerly known as Kanye West.
Use our action center to tell lawmakers to speak up against @bubbaprog.xyz's prosecution.
Infantino has to go. Heβs sold the game to cozy up to Trump and whatever dictator pats him on the head. Somehow makes Blatter look like a man of courage.

The council said it also discovered ICE has been reaching out to other tribal governments and cities in Washington in an attempt to secure detention space. For its part, the Nisqually Indian Tribe, whose reservation lies east of Olympia and which has a 288-bed correctional facility built in part with federal funds, is telling ICE no, according to the council. βThe Nisqually people are not in favor of, nor will the tribal council allow, the detention of individuals by ICE on our reservation or in our facilities,β said Tribal Chair E.K.
