To what end?

Galaxy winning the leagues cup in a final over Montreal 🤌

Liga MX teams went 5 for 6 against MLS on night one of Leagues Cup.

The sole victor for Major League Soccer?

Montreal, of course. #leaguescup

I felt this.

So 𝘕𝘖𝘞 the NYT is against accused rapists on trading cards‽

Wait ‘til they find out what their reporting rubber-stamped.

People are dying and mayor Johnston has $0 for protected bike lanes in his $900mil bond proposal.

But there's at least $100mil for the new broncos stadium! 🙃

This deal does NOT impact Colorado Rapids pursuit of English center back Rob Holding.

Rapids still in active talks to sign Holding from Crystal Palace.

🇺🇸 Sources: The Colorado Rapids have acquired USYNT center back Noah Cobb from Atlanta United.

Deal is a loan thru the season with a purchase option.

Cobb, who just turned 20, had made 40 first team apps for Atlanta.

THIS is what I like to see from Democrats.

Expose their hypocrisy. Use the system to your advantage. Get in the GOP’s way at every opportunity so they can’t hurt more people.

Naptown!

Can you use your powers for good though?

It’s the Murdoch playbook.

Bezos followed with the Washington Post. Ellison with Paramount/CBS.

All while Republicans in Congress defund PBS/NPR.

Taking down the Fourth Estate is a requirement of authoritarianism. So is undermining education. They cannot succeed with an educated, informed public.

Colorful banner with the words: No On Is Illegal, Soccer is for Everyone. There is a half globe/half soccer ball in rainbow colors. A group of people are holding it above their heads at a soccer game.

No one is illegal, Soccer is for everyone. Today and every day.

DoD using MechaHitler is just fine, nothing to worry about out.

Lifting the District Court’s injunction will unleash untold harm, delaying or denying educational opportunities and leaving students to suffer from discrimination, sexual assault, and other civil rights violations without the federal resources Congress intended. The majority apparently deems it more important to free the Government from paying employees it had no right to fire than to avert these very real harms while the litigation continues. Equity does not support such an inequitable result. * * * The President must take care that the laws are faithfully executed, not set out to dismantle them. That basic rule undergirds our Constitution’s separation of powers. Yet today, the majority rewards clear defiance of that core principle with emergency relief. Because I cannot condone such abuse of our equitable authority, I respectfully dissent.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court allows the Trump administration to move forward with the abolition of the Department of Education. It gives no explanation for its order. All three liberals dissent. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

From Sotomayor's dissent:

It’s absolutely impossible to think this is the result of good faith legal analysis, especially when they refuse to provide any reasons!

A little math about that prison camp in Florida. $450 million per year for 3,000 people is $150,000/person per year.

The cost for one person receiving SNAP for one year is $2256, yet they're telling us that's too expensive.

Judge Blocks Trump Administration Tactics in L.A. Immigration Raids A federal judge temporarily halted the administration from making indiscriminate arrests based on race and denying detainees access to lawyers, in a lawsuit that could have national repercussions.

A judge temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s immigration raids in the Los Angeles region, calling some tactics unconstitutional.

Zack Steffen is back to full team training for Colorado Rapids. Will wait for the availability report, but if he’s not out/questionable, would expect him to start tomorrow.

🟣👑🔜 #Rapids96

Baltimore is seeing the city’s fewest homicides in 50 years. Here’s why. Multiple people have taken credit for the historic drop that mirrors a national decrease in violent crimes. Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott says it’s due to a community-based approach to gun violence.

#Baltimore Mayor #BrandonScott invested in 42 summer youth camps, 29 literacy programs, extended the rec center hours to 11 p.m, planned block parties, opened the pools for safe fun, & opened several schools up for summer classes. Crime is down 62%. 🔥🔥 www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

THIS #Rapids2 HAS EVERYTHING:

- Weather Delay
- Burgundy and Blue Rockstar Evan
- Apprentice Official Jackson
- Steve Flores getting a cleat to the chest while being stepped over only to stand up with the 2ston defender riding his shoulders like a small child.
- Did we mention Weather Delay?

Wait until he finds out he owns a team that’s actual league plays in summer.
