Jeopardy answer for the day: Josh Fields. .. .. .. .. Who is the player the Los Angeles Dodgers got from the Houston Astros in exchange for Yordan Alvarez?

–

Tonight’s fundraising insanity from Velveeta Voldemort “An EXCLUSIVE OFFER to win the SPECIAL-EDITION Tr*mp Football Helmet that he HAND-SIGNED for YOU.”

While I support football helmets in general you could argue they didn’t do a d*mn thing to protect Herschel Walker.

–

Fox News just referred to “Former President Tr*mp.” Uh oh, don’t tell him.

–

January 6 committee is going to subpoena Velveeta Voldemort. Can someone please tell him that his testimony would be the bigliest ever ratings????

–

Hah – tonight Fox News website headline: “Newly released video shows Nancy Pelosi threatened to ‘punch out’ Trump on Jan. 6.” Well, this might be the first time in history Fox said something nice about Speaker Pelosi!

–

Reminder, while SCOTUS has radical Federalist Society members, those six are only right-wing radicals who know their jobs now will never depend on kow-towing to Velveeta Voldemort. So they are likely to show him the same loyalty he shows those who are no longer useful to him.

–

So much to unravel on previously unseen footage from January 6…

But how many REPUBLICAN leaders were there with Nancy Pelosi, in what was clearly a dire situation? And they are now supporting Velveeta Voldemort and pretending nothing serious happened.

Randy Johnson is trending and it’s about him being a professional photographer. Very cool. I was worried for a second Randy had thrown a ball and hit that goose at Dodger Stadium.

–

Think we can all agree on a bipartisan basis that numerous baseball fans including children were spared serious trauma tonight since no one hit the goose at Dodger Stadium with a line drive.

Must admit to being charmed that during #Postseason game of baseball, a sport known for its incredibly detailed & esoteric rules, there were folks out there educating us that the bird on Dodger stadium field was not just a goose, but a “greater white-fronted goose. “

–

Not saying Los Angeles Dodgers fans are getting blase about playoff games. But tickets for Wednesday’s game at Dodger Stadium were available for under $50. Where tickets to San Diego’s Petco Park for this weekend start about $200 standing room only.

–

Apparently Chris Matthews says his brother won’t go to a Phillies game “because there’s too much crime downtown.”

Uh, I’m a baseball fan living in California but have been to Citizen’s Bank Park. Nice stadium but not CLOSE to downtown. Several miles away actually. No lie too small.

–

Not a joke – Velveeta Voldemort fundraising email of the afternoon starts out: “DID YOU HEAR? I am the #1 PRESIDENTIAL GOLFER IN HISTORY!” – Can’t imagine how this man has a reputation as a malignant narcissist.

For Republicans, or anyone with GOP friends. Ask yourself/them:. If a Democratic candidate had allegedly paid for an abortion, would you dismiss it as not important? Of course we know if a GOP candidate had a stroke it would be “how DARE anyone attack him over medical issue.”

–

The official death toll from Hurricane Ian in Florida is now over 100. And it’s rising. And we still don’t have a good answer why people in Fort Myers area weren’t told to evacuate sooner. If Florida were a blue state GOP would be calling for impeaching the Governor.

–

Media obsessed w/ John Fetterman’s stroke & if it might affect his ability to serve in Senate going forward. Hey media, Fetterman is getting better & better. If you’re worried about a 2022 Senate candidate’s cognition going forward, spend some time following Chuck Grassley, who just turned 89 and is running for another six year term.
