  1. A divided Supreme Court ruled that individual judges lack the authority to grant nationwide injunctions, but the decision left unclear the fate of President Donald Trump’s restrictions on birthright citizenship.

    What to know:

    What does this mean for birthright citizenship? That’s unclear. Trump’s order aims to deny citizenship to U.S.-born children of people who are in the country illegally. The court’s conservative majority left open the possibility that the birthright citizenship changes could remain blocked nationwide.

    What does the ruling mean for Trump? The outcome was a victory for the president, who has complained about individual judges throwing up obstacles to his agenda.

    What cases are left to be decided? The court is set to issue six rulings today, including those related to an online age-verification law in Texas, the Education Department’s firing of nearly 1,400 workers and DOGE-related government job cuts.

    1) is it difficult to fly that plane?

    2) the bulk of the 36 hours is it in some sort of autopilot setting just level flying, way above any other air traffic, right?

    3) is there more than one pilot aboard these bombers that can rotate watch/active flying?

    What makes the mission difficult?  What makes it complicated?  A to B, pull lever to drop 2 bombs, B to A.  For 6 or 7 planes. Midair refueling in between that I would assume gets trained on constantly.  Fuel planes from whatever bases are nearby the refueling area go up on time and loiter.

    Meanwhile Thunder defenders are literally holding McConnell's hand while he's out on the perimeter. And I guarantee if he tries to throw up a garbage shot to get the call that whistle isn't blowing, because he's TJ McConnell and not the MVP.

    YARN | Hey if you want me to take a dump in a box, and mark ...

    Thunder are never called for fouls, yet somehow they finish tied for 5th most fouls called. Dort and Caruso get away with everything, yet both are near the top of fouls per minute. Thunder shot 20 FTs per game. Thunder opponents shot 24 FTs per game. Keep fucking that chicken, though. Wait, it has to be your bull.  Anyway, hope that wasn't too aggressive for anyone. Happy health to all and see you next year. Probably see some of you in the "they're holding!!!!" football game threads, I guess.

    Super hilarious that Dort and Caruso get away with it and nobody else does? 

    Dort was 8th in fouls per game. Caruso was 91st in fouls per game, in just 19 minutes a game. Both players are near the top of the league in fouls per minute. Not surprising as the Thunder were tied for 5th in fouls called. 

    But, people see what they want to see based on who they want to win. That team I don't like fouls all the time and it's never called and my team never fouls and gets them called. That's a strike!!!!! (half a foot outside) They're holding every play!!!! (both OL are blocking/holding the same). Fanatics.

    That's for the entire playoffs. Indy played in several more games than OKC.  For the Finals:

    Indy 141 / 186  75.8%

    OKC 176 / 214  82.24%

    Actually, each team played 23 postseason games. 

    No one should be surprised the player that drives to the basket more than anyone else in the league gets to the line. 

    This is hilarious. Nesmith needs to move his feet instead of putting his right hand on SGA's body and then his left hand on SGA's shooting shoulder, right? A good way to not send SGA to the line is to, oh, I don't know, maybe don't put your fucking hand on his shooting arm?

    Look - man - some of us care a lot about this shit. Even when it isn't one of our teams playing.

    That game was a really big fucking deal. And your postgame diatribe was kind of shitty and insincere and dismissive. 

    I just watched Haliburton pour his fucking guts out for four rounds in the playoffs like I've maybe never seen anyone else do in my life. That dude has more heart and talent and drive than any of us could ever dream of. He knew what the risk was. He knew what could happen. And he went out there anyway two games in a row. 

    So when you say some shit immediately after like "if I have a calf strain I'm letting it heal" it comes across as pretty fucking insensitive. That dude just had his heart ripped out on the biggest possible stage in basketball. To insinuate that he fucked up or made the wrong decision to go out there and play irritates me. If I ever have a son I hope he's a fifth of the man that Tyrese Haliburton is. Short of volunteering to go to war that shit that he did is about as big as it gets. 

    Your day after diatribe is…..weird. If you happen to have a son someday, maybe shoot a little higher for him than being 1/5 of a man that’s a professional basketball player who you don’t know that played hurt like thousands of other athletes before him.

    It isn't sour grapes. Why the NBA didn't call them for fouls, I'll never know. 

    I believe OKC was 6th in fouls per game, but sure, the NBA allows them to cheat by playing under different rules than every other team.

    This version of OKC is wayyyyy worse than Miami in the sense of how they league favors them and allows them to get away with so much. SGA would be a 4th option on those Miami teams. This is disgusting basketball to watch.

    It's so insane that, of all people, Donald Trump has the sole power to decide when we go to war. Like if we were all waiting for Carrot Top or Mr. T to decide if we're gonna bomb someone or not. 

    Whoa! Catching strays outta nowhere!

    He wants a Nobel Peace Prize badly.

    Now I want to open a Nobel Pizza and call Trump’s cell phone to tell him he’s won the Nobel Pizza Prize and we can deliver right away. When he’s confused upon delivery of a large anchovie pizza I can explain someone must have put his name in the jar for our monthly pizza prize. Simple mixup, like your classic Four Seasons Total Landscaping press conference.

    So for 100k, our adversaries can buy a pizza franchise next to the pentagon, implant listening bugs in the box, and be in the room where it happens?

    I’m sure they get all they need for the administrations cell phone use.
