Jalen Brunson took $100M out of his own pockets so the New York Knicks could re-distribute the wealth and sign critical talent needed to win a championship.
Like it or not, socialism already winning in NYC.

One person in this photo deserves a 20% WNBA revenue share and it’s not me.
Congratulations to @TheWNBPA on their historic labor agreement.

NEWS: Top-five senior Jordan Smith Jr., the best guard in the country, has committed to Arkansas. He chose the Razorbacks over Duke, Georgetown and others.
“All my visits were very good, but when I left Arkansas, I felt it was the right place for me,” Smith told @PaulBiancardi.

300 million workers just shut down India.
The largest strike in human history, and most of the Western media barely whispered it. That silence is complicity in Modi’s war on workers’ rights.
India’s general strike is the future that the billionaires and ruling class fears most

Changing the lives of 2,600 children is indeed a great achievement. Can you tell us a little more about the kind of change you are bringing about in children through sports?

This incredible man just turned 85 today! What a blessing to be his son - he can still run a mile and drive where ever you need him to be. Still will forever try and be half the man he has been.
