My father, a Duke professor, had at times a love-hate relationship with their basketball team. But he was never a fan of the rival Tarheels

So he’d have loved this “North Carolina appears headed toward becoming the first AP preseason No. 1 men’s basketball team to miss the tournament since NC State in 1974-75.”

Yes, Mitch McConnell, 81, is old. But if we needed a reminder that falls can happen at any age, Kevin Durant, 34, slipped on the floor in pre-game warm-ups and is likely out for a month.

Be careful out there.

Mitch McConnell, who is about the same age as Joe Biden, has a concussion & will be in the hospital a few days to recover. Falls can happen at any age, and wishing Mitch the best but trying to imagine right wing media if President Biden had fallen with a similar result.

“I joined every single one of my colleagues in wishing Leader McConnell a speedy and full recovery.” Chuck Schumer said on the Senate floor Thursday morning. Democrats aren’t perfect, but we’re by and large decent grown-ups.

Gym Jordan as a committee chair thinks people should respect his subpoenas. Gym Jordan ignored January 6 committee subpoenas. If they gave graduate degrees in hypocrisy we’d be referring to him as Dr. Gym Jordan.

First GOP claimed it was viability. Then GOP claimed it was “can fetus feel pain?”

Then GOP claimed it was “is there a heartbeat?” Now GOP claims they want to ban any abortion medication from time of conception.

Today’s GOP wants to punish women for having sex.-

20 GOP Attorney Generals at least temporarily got Walgreens to stop selling mifepristone due to state anti-abortion laws.

ICYMI, also 17 GOP Attorney Generals suing California for state law mandating only new electric cars be sold by 2035.

States’ rights for me but not for thee.-

ICYMI, Nikki Haley just said of Social Security: “The first thing you do is you change the retirement age of young people coming up..” Nikki didn’t define young. And she didn’t say how old. So how old does she think is too young for social security & too old to be in office?

J.D Vance actually said about Ohio train derailment – “

Our leadership, media & politicians were slow to respond to this crisis, in part because people of East Palestine have wrong politics…they’re little too rural, maybe little too White.”

The people of Flint, MI would like a word.-

Seen few stories lately about Florida & Texas being “pro-business.”

But how long until women, & the men who love them, start looking at both states and thinking, there’s no job worth moving to a place that treats women like they’re incapable of making their own health decisions.

Being in the travel industry I know many hotel chains and airlines are big on diversity, being LGTBQ friendly, and fighting climate change. So is Deathsantis going to try to shut down tourism in the state as being overly woke. Or is his battle with Disney just a publicity stunt?
