There are vacancies at practically EVERY major downtown hotel in Toronto this evening - on a night when Portugal & Croatia have a KO match. And my judgment is prices are less than during peak summer times in previous summers. I love the tournament. It’s been great. So many...

RFK Jr. says Trump’s executive order to lower drug prices is the promise Democrats made for decades—but never kept. “Every major Democratic leader for 20 years has been making this promise to the American people.” “This was the fulcrum of Bernie Sanders' run for presidency.” “It's one of these promises that politicians make to their constituents knowing that they'll never have to do it.” “I never thought that this would happen in my lifetime.” “I have a couple of kids who are big Bernie Sanders fans and when I told them that this was gonna happen, they had tears in their eyes.” “We finally have a president who's willing to stand up for the American people.”

[Q]: Would Ukraine be forced to give up land that Russian forces have not yet conquered? [Steve Witkoff]: Well, the president has said that the only one who can make that decision are the Ukrainians. That's President Zelensky's call. And and I think that that they have indicated that it's a more complicated decision than just giving up land. You have to they have to understand what the security guarantees are and they're entitled to understand those things. They have to make sure that this can never happen again. That's that is them being a fiduciary for their people. So we have to address all of those things. But we understand that we have technical teams working on it. And we're hopeful that by the end of this year, we actually and maybe quite a bit sooner, we actually can find the ingredients to get to that peace deal.

This is scripted for people look how many people are in the street this is about the amount that you would have to do a shoot like this. This is not organic. You have to understand the difference in Camera work and the amount of people moving around how they treat the camera, etc

Cheryl Reeve on the trans sports bans from her perspective of being a leader in women’s sports “Of course it weighs on me, the attacks on trans people, the attacks that they’ve gone through… it seems like it’s got way more aggressive, it’s sort of sickening when the issues they are trying to tackle are really not issues, the number of transgender athletes they are now making laws for and creating a problem, to get elected…what I’m hopeful for is that people have gotten themselves more educated and they understand that, that’s not actually a problem… exclusion is never the answer, separate isn’t equal, and trans lives matter, so to take away something that’s so valuable that sports brings to young people in particular and what it does, as I have a youngster, encourages you to be part of a team and what it gives you in terms of teamwork, leadership, competitiveness, all the things, they have every right to that as well”

Epstein survivor Annie Farmer on people saying it's "unlikely" the discharge petition goes anywhere: "It’s important to note that so many things that are unlikely have happened when it comes to this case. It was very unlikely that we would get the signatures we needed for this discharge petition. And here we are. It was very unlikely that Andrew would no longer be a prince. And that's happened. For years people said it was unlikely that anyone would care or know about the crimes of Epstein and his coconspirators."

ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos: “You call them lunatics but the president just had this post where he says ‘we’re in discussions with a new and more reasonable regime’ – let me try to pin you down on that, who is this ‘new and more reasonable regime’? Is the United States in direct contact with them?” State Secretary Marco Rubio: “I’m not going to disclose to you who those people are, because it probably would get them in trouble with some other groups of people inside of Iran. Look, there’s some fractures going on there internally. And at the end of the day, I think that if there are people in Iran who now, given everything that’s happened, are willing to move in a different direction for their country, that would be great. Imagine in Iran that instead of spending their wealth, billions of dollars supporting terrorists or weapons, had spent that money helping the people of Iran, you’d have a much different country.” “So we are always hopeful that that would exist over there. It’s unfortunate, the people of Iran are incredible people. The people who lead them, this clerical regime, that is the problem. And if there are new people now in charge who have a more reasonable vision of the future, that would be good news for us, for them, for the entire world. But we also have to be prepared for the possibility, maybe even the probability, that that is not the case. So we’re gonna test it.” George Stephanopoulos: “But the president said they are, is that the case or is it not? I’m just trying to get some clarity on that.” Marco Rubio: “So you have people that are saying some of the right things privately. Obviously, they’re not going to put it out in press releases and what they say to you or put out there for the world doesn’t necessarily reflect what they’re saying in our conversations.”

SMITH: "Many of the people who are in [PM Carney's] caucus still hold on to the same views that they have for the last 10 years. That Alberta is a problem, our economic wealth is a problem, developing it is a problem, so keep it in the ground. And that is not going to happen."

Colonel Jacques Baud: The current Israelis are, in fact, Europeans. They are not from the Middle East. They have never been from the Middle East historically. Never. The Israelis that are currently in Israel are pure Europeans. Pure. They have a small number of Israelis who are Mizrahi, who belong to the Middle Eastern culture and might probably be able to understand the nuance and the subtlety of the diplomatic dialogue or discussion in the Middle East. But those Mizrahi, those Israelis who are the real Jews from Palestine, if I can put it that way, these are not in power. They have even been kept away from power. The power belongs to those Eastern European Jews, which is the Ashkenazi, who have historically had no relationship with the Middle East. And these people have all the features of the Europeans. They have the same arrogance. They have the same approach to problems. They probably have some positive aspects; probably they are more efficient, or things like that, but at the same time they are not able to understand complex triangular relationships. It’s always bipolar. It cannot be more than this. That’s very much who we are as Europeans, and I’ve witnessed that so many times that when you start to have a discussion, a dialogue in the Middle East, Europeans are lost, essentially because, for them, again, we come from a culture where everything is either black or white. For us, the friend of my friend is my friend, but put an enemy in this triangle, and you start to have a problem. For a European, you cannot put the word “enemy” in this triangle. But in the Middle East, you can put the word “enemy” in this triangle, and it still works.

"For me, Nico Robin is a very great way to heal myself in many ways, to understand myself in many ways, to see my own growth in many ways. And to understand that sometimes life makes you choose violence over love because you don't know differently, and yet it just takes the right people to make you choose love and truly understand that the core of you was never bad. Most of us are not bad people. We are just broken when we are children, and we have a chance to change." ─ Lera Abova about what Nico Robin means to her

Jason Kelce explains how to handle noise from the city of Philadelphia as a player while the Eagles are struggling: “When it's not going well, it's going to be really, really, overwhelming at times. I think that that's where you need great leadership. That's where you need guys that have been through it before, especially in this city that understand that they're this way because they care and it's unacceptable what's happening on the field.”

#WATCH | Delhi | On film ‘The Kerala Story 2’, National Shooter Tara Shahdeo says, "My case happened in 2014. That was the first time I heard the term 'love jihad' from the media. Until then, I didn’t even know what that word meant. Even today, there are many girls who have not been able to come forward in front of us. This is such an issue where people think the girl got misled and did it of her own free will. Back then, I felt no one would understand this story, but today it is coming out in society. We have been going to court for 10-12 years. If there had been a discussion about this earlier, we would not have become its victims." (23.02)

I don't think I've ever heard anyone say that Congress is working well. Part of the reason is that the people there don’t reflect the life experiences of the American people. We need people in Congress who understand the struggles so many families are facing, and we need to address the barriers that regular people face when serving. That's why it’s so important to make it easier for women and families to have a voice in Washington.

Karoline Leavitt shuts down CNN’s Kaitlan Collins’ attempt to downplay the chaos in Portland. Collins said she spoke to the Portland police chief, and that alone convinced her that Trump’s claims were wrong. But Leavitt exposed Collins’ lazy journalism and hit back with a direct challenge to uncover the truth: COLLINS: “I spoke to the police chief of Portland last week. He said that the president’s claims just don’t match up with what’s happening on the ground.” LEAVITT: “I would encourage you as a reporter to go on the ground and to take a look at Portland for yourself, because there have been many members of the press, not press in this room, but independent journalists... because they have been in the middle of these riots, and they have witnessed the anarchy that is taking place night after night. It’s on video. You should play it on your show. You have a great opportunity in primetime on CNN to show your audience.” Collins tried to jump in, but Leavitt shut her down a second time, pointing out a major flaw in her sources. COLLINS: (inaudible) LEAVITT: “Yeah, but you’re probably talking to partisan Democrat officials who are opposed to everything this president does. You should also ask the people who live in Portland. “We’ve actually heard from many members of the community who have said that this complete civil disobedience, it’s a mess, it’s been loud, it’s been troubling for neighbors in the community who are just trying to live peacefully. “And these people are not there to peacefully protest. They are there to cause mayhem and havoc.”

This family booked a child’s birthday party at this water park for 200 people. Then they advertised it on social media and was selling tickets to their event at this park. The park caught wind of what they were doing and cancelled their event due to over 500 people showing up for an event booked only for 250 people. Was this fair or was it another motive involved? I can’t blame them especially if they aren’t equipped to handle that many people. In college we used to always go to this bar after class late at night around 10pm. That night a friend’s band was supposed to be playing there and we helped sell tickets for the event. There ended up being a misunderstanding, the bar said there was a max occupancy of 200 people, so the band assumed they could have sold 200 tickets. We sold all of the tickets, when we got there over 40 people were already there as part of the normal crowd. So it all 200 people show up that bought tickets there would be an issue as it would exceed occupancy. The bar owner was getting antsy because he didn’t want any issues if he exceeded occupancy and was in the verge of canceling the show. The band and the owner engaged in a heated argument and the band said the way he said it, he was implying it could be 200 people and that he should only have let people in that had tickets considering it was an event. The owner argued back saying and he quoted himself that the max occupancy was 200 and that he never gave the band a number for how many tickets that could have been sold. I think they could have both handled the details much better and they were both in the wrong. The show ended up getting canceled because of how many people was continuing to show up due to his cheap drink specials he always has that night.

I have a friend who doesn't read anything published in the past 50 years, and the more I think about it, the more I think he's onto something. The reason is that time is the best filter we have for quality. People are bad at judging quality in the moment but very good at getting rid of junk over time. — — "History is not very good at capturing all that is great in art. It is not good at that. There are many great symphonies that have been lost permanently, there are many great painters that died unknown and their paintings are gone, there's novels that have been written that no one will ever read. So history is not good at capturing all this great art. But history is very good at discarding all that is mediocre. And the amount of time that that takes, it's something like 50 years. So over the course of 50 years, what will happen is a lot of stuff that was prominent will be re-filtered and re-filtered and re-filtered, and you'll end up with a smaller group of things which have survived that test of time. So if you think about it right now, if you go back and look at the bestseller lists for 1974, 1973, there's a lot of that that would have been highly regarded at the time, which people do not read anymore for a variety of reasons, and there's some that has survived, and that's a very telling distinction. So in a world where I'm turning 60 this year, you have a limited amount of time, all four of us have active lives, we want to make sure that if we're going to sit down, we're going to read carefully, we're going to meet and we're going to discuss it in detail, we want to make sure that the work is rewarding. And the best way to ensure that is by drawing from the past." amor towles

I have a friend who doesn't read anything published in the past 50 years, and the more I think about it, the more I think he's onto something. The reason is that time is the best filter we have for quality. People are bad at judging quality in the moment but very good at getting rid of junk over time. — — "History is not very good at capturing all that is great in art. It is not good at that. There are many great symphonies that have been lost permanently, there are many great painters that died unknown and their paintings are gone, there's novels that have been written that no one will ever read. So history is not good at capturing all this great art. But history is very good at discarding all that is mediocre. And the amount of time that that takes, it's something like 50 years. So over the course of 50 years, what will happen is a lot of stuff that was prominent will be re-filtered and re-filtered and re-filtered, and you'll end up with a smaller group of things which have survived that test of time. So if you think about it right now, if you go back and look at the bestseller lists for 1974, 1973, there's a lot of that that would have been highly regarded at the time, which people do not read anymore for a variety of reasons, and there's some that has survived, and that's a very telling distinction. So in a world where I'm turning 60 this year, you have a limited amount of time, all four of us have active lives, we want to make sure that if we're going to sit down, we're going to read carefully, we're going to meet and we're going to discuss it in detail, we want to make sure that the work is rewarding. And the best way to ensure that is by drawing from the past." amor towles
