Ouch, Cody! That's so mean! Yes, I'm sure Coach Sanders supports this bill. It's a GREAT bill for coaches. It makes their life a lot easier by indenturing athletes to programs (after one transfer) and giving a groundbreaking anti-trust exemption to their employers, stripping athletes of rights. And the onerous transfer and endorsement rules DON'T apply to coaches! So athletes can only transfer once, but coaches can trade up every year. Athletes have to get bureacratic approval for every single endorsement deal, but coaches can do whatever deals they want - no red tape! Billionaire donors can't pay players, but they can pay coaches directly! It's not a surprise the millionaire coaches support this bill and the players' groups oppose it.
This war has gone completely off the rails and Republicans in Congress could put an end to it next week if they chose. The only reason this war - and the misery and death and inflation it brings - continues is because Republicans want it to continue. https://t.co/Ve1BotiHAT
It's really disgusting to lie about being in danger on 9/11 when you were actually nowhere near the attack and went on live TV to brag that your building was now going to be the tallest in the city.
If you read anything today, read this. And remember, the problem he articulates - AI companies in a blind race to build a death machine first - can easily be solved. Through a regulatory system that allows the research to continue, but in a way that doesn't destroy us.
Trump lost control of the war right from the start. But he continues it because he simply doesn't care about the cost that is mounting on American consumers, farms, and businesses. Oil is back over $100 a barrel. https://t.co/plOXelYiQ8
Last week, Danbury area residents showed up in huge numbers to draw the line on the brutal ICE tactics being used there - including traumatizing kids at school bus stops. It's action like this that saves our democracy. https://t.co/pdrJdNnpVO
That's a lot of speakers to spin an economic disaster! Since Trump was elected: - gas prices are up 33% - over 100,000 manufacturing jobs lost - 21% jump in those without health insurance - tariffs costing every family $1,100 a year - student loan delinquency up 20%
I love college sports too and I’m open to legislative solutions. But a massive anti-trust exemption for college sports isn’t necessary to fix what’s wrong. The industry wants it so that they can smash player empowerment, not reform it.
18 Americans are dead. Billions in damage to our bases. Missile supplies catastrophically low. Farm bankruptcies at record highs. Families struggling to pay $5 gas prices. Iran stronger than ever. But "small potatoes". Our president is dangerously delusional.
Look at the massive crowd behind them and tell me with a straight face that college sports are in "absolute chaos". The "chaos" is that (mostly black) athletes now have bargaining power and white coaches and sports industry execs hate it. 1/ Want proof? Here are the numbers:
These aren’t people who were here “illegally”. Haitians came here as part of a program to rescue people from countries destroyed by disaster or war. They were good, contributing members of our communities. With families. But they aren’t white, so to Mullin they are dangerous.
I just met Jason and Keri on my walk across the state. They lost their food stamps bc of Trump’s cuts. They are taking a bus back and forth to New Haven today for a meal from a soup kitchen there. A 6 hour commute for a meal. And Elon Musk just became a trillionaire.
I wish this were happening in every community in America that is under assault by ICE. But I’m proud of Danbury. Thousands came out tonight to protest ICE’s brutality - including this horrific new tactic of disappearing parents at school bus stops. https://t.co/rm5edAj6Rp
As I walk across the state this week, gas prices everywhere are over $4.25. That’s totally unaffordable for any family living paycheck to paycheck. And the only reason prices are this high is Trump’s insane, incompetent war. https://t.co/JP2HlFd9Ke
My route happened to take me by Colonial Bronze, a factory run by my friend Jamie Gregg. The copper tariffs are hurting him, and he says they don’t seem to be working. Domestic copper production is pretty flat - all that is happening is prices are going up. https://t.co/z3LvtUkVwo
Met a gun owner on my walk who wanted to talk to me about protecting the 2nd Amendment but she also believes in universal background checks and required training and was shocked to learn the NRA opposes all that - and this is a conversation I have with gun owners all the time.
a. Check your story. Homan does NOT deny making arrests at school bus stops. The opposite - he seems to imply it DID happen. b. Multiple sources on the ground in Danbury report that this happened. https://t.co/LRQNzFkMXN
"Secretly" is the key word. What's extraordinary is the the Pentagon is refusing to even confirm these social media influencers are drawing government salaries. The contempt DoD has for taxpayers is unreal. https://t.co/GVKtb1UzN3
Uh, check your story. Homan does not "push back" on what happened in Danbury. He basically admits it by saying there is "no safe harbor" - including school bus stops. https://t.co/SRNscVKxg6
Trump says ICE is targeting criminals. They aren't. It's a lie. In Danbury, they are just targeting parents. Sitting at school bus stops. Just to terrorize little kids. https://t.co/MsTH8xsHvT
The only reason your gas is through the roof is because your president started a war with Iran that nobody wanted and he couldn't possibly win. November will be a referendum on his incompetence. https://t.co/uPCZdGaqFG
The fallout of the disastrous Iran War continues. We have suspended a program to learn how to conduct drone warfare (the future of combat) so we can focus all our attention on failing at conventional bombing campaigns in Iran. https://t.co/OB3V6rZxdX
Imagine a child boarding the school bus for the first day of 2nd grade. He kisses his dad goodbye, and when he gets off the bus that afternoon, dad is gone. No one is there to pick him up. The 7 year old is abandoned, alone, scared. That's what happened in Danbury this week. https://t.co/zPm0ELxXo6
I will be on @Morning_Joe in a few minutes to talk about the insidious tactics ICE is using this week during the first week of school in Connecticut. It has to stop immediately.
I had an off the record meeting today in Norwich with the immigrant and immigrant advocacy community. We need to ready for ICE’s brutal tactics in Danbury to spread to the rest of the state. https://t.co/v7MvhOYyx8
