ESPN top baseball headline

“Reds’ win streak at 11, team’s best in 66 years”

ESPN’s second baseball headline.

“Overturned call at plate costs Padres a night after Rangers.”

No mention that the game final score, 4-2 SF, gave the Giants a 10 game win streak.

Have the Oakland A’s won since the Nevada legislature approved the funding for their move to Las Vegas?

–

President Biden is in California, talking about climate change, investing $2 billion to modernize electric grid, meeting with experts on AI… etc.

National media is barely mentioning the trip. But if Joe had tripped or messed up a name, you know it would be front page news.

–

Senator Tammy Duckworth: “Let’s be honest, it’s not about protecting life, it’s about controlling women & our bodies. “If GOP really wanted to protect life they’d stop trying to strip away our healthcare, or stand up to the NRA…: Nailed it!

Gov. Wrong DeSantis’ Disney World oversight district is adopting a whistleblower policy which provides protections for whistleblowers. So what happens if someone blows the whistle on something involving money and DeSantis?

–

Those of us who said birth control would be next in GOP sights after Dobbs were told we were being like Chicken Little.

Democrats right now are the only thing keeping our sky from falling.

–

We’re all hoping for the best with that Titanic submersible. But thinking that Republicans who rant nonstop about the cost of trying to deal with asylum seekers at the border haven’t said a word about the tax dollars being spent on trying to rescue billionaires.

–

Chuck Grassley attacks California’s law requiring pork sold within state borders to come from pigs not housed in confined spaces.

He railed against those making pork laws who’ve never been on a pork farm. How about those making laws about women’s bodies who’ve never had a uterus?

Cindy Hyde-Smith claims 1873 law should prohibit mifepristone from being sent in 2023 through US mail.

Amy Klobuchar points out in 1873, we treated pneumonia by blood letting.

Maybe Amy would get more of her Senatet male colleagues’ attention if she added in 1873 only treatment for ED was prayer.

Before Joc Pederson’s game winning walk, Casey Schmitt with the third walk of his MLB career. If you don’t think there’s some magic with this SF Giants team lately.

Thinking right now stations airing the SF Giants need to charge a premium for ads in the last three innings

–

Not only are all teams in AL East above .500, the last place 39-35 Boston Red Sox are now 3 games ahead of the 1st place AL Central 36-38 Minnesota Twins.

–

Texas Governor Greg Abbott just signed bill that, as of Sept 1, prohibits businesses from hosting “sexually oriented” performances in which someone appeals to the “prurient interest in sex” in presence of minors. So he’s outlawing child beauty pageants?

–

Actually for that matter did Greg Abbott just outlaw the Dallas Cowboys Cheeleaders?

–

As many states deal with disasters caused by extreme weather, President Biden’s visit to Palo Alto & speech about $600 million to address climate change gets little press. Now, had Joe tripped walking around the Baylands, (EASY to do on windy day), would have been headline news.

–

Pres. Biden & Demicrats had to scale back Inflation Reduction Act to get it through divided Senate, but yesterday Joe also announced over $2 billion to modernize US electric grid. If Ted Cruz etc weren’t so busy Biden bashing they might have worked to raise that amount. Texas needs help.

–

For all that media considers it breaking news when President Joe Biden, a former stutterer, makes a verbal gaffe or stumble, they’re strangely quiet over Donald Trump talking about Joe’s primary opponent “JFK Jr, I know him very well.” Yes, he said it.

–

Politico reports “Marianne Williamson has lost her 2nd campaign manager in as many months in her 2024 presidential bid.” Not that Biden is perfect, but he’s doing a fine job. With all due respect, who would sign on as Williamson’s 2024 campaign manager now in the first place?

–

Didn’t care who Bill Clinton slept with. Also don’t care who Lauren Boebert sleeps with.

But I do care that Bill Clinton was a good President.

And I care that Boebert is a bad joke who is spending energy & taxpayer $$ on stunt claiming she wants to impeach another good President.

–

Hunter Biden works out a plea deal on misdemeanor tax charges and apoplectic Republicans want him in prison for life. Whereas the former President and frontrunner for GOP nomination in 2024 says he didn’t pay taxes and “that makes me smart.”

–

So Hunter Biden admits when he was an addict he violated federal law in buying a gun as “an unlawful user of and addicted to a controlled substance.” As much as GOP loves 2nd amendment if Hunter were only the son of a Republican leader, he’d be a conservative hero.

–

Someone addicted to controlled substance in US legally can’t buy firearm. But no one was injured or killed with Hunter Biden’s gun. Someone under 18 yrs of age in WI legally can’t be armed with firearm. 2 people were killed by Kyle Rittenhouse’s gun.

As Tuberville’s dangerous stunt of holding up military appointments continues, imagine if some Senator tried to hold up Pentagon appointments because they thought easy access to Viagra for men in military was causing too many unwanted pregnancies and thus abortions.
