    The judge STILL doesn’t know how to silence his phone.

    I don't think I've seen the tie-matches-the-shirt look Rittenhouse has today since Regis Philbin left us.

    The problem with Critical Race Theory is it puts white people all in their feelings. That’s it. That’s the problem.

    The judge has done a wonderful job in having people question the outcome, no matter what happens.

    Good read on the first Black quarterback who the Raiders chose in the first round.

    This was 1969, a year after Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination, two years before the University of Alabama decided to integrate its football program. From his seat in the back of the bus, Dickey could surmise that not all 21,000 in attendance supported the idea of a Black quarterback making his professional debut in this state in this exhibition game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Outside the window, a “No N----- QB in Alabama” sign made that clear.

    Steady on. From what I've read, the misdemeanor count wouldn't have held up on appeal anyway, so this isn't any great loss.
