Over and out.
So the US Women’s Soccer Team, was bounced out of the World Cup on an almost saved penalty kick.
And some conservative media wants to pin it on too much diversity.
The women lost to #3 Sweden, Funny, didn’t hear that when the men were bounced last year in the same World Cup round of 16. to the Netherlands, who were in turn beaten in the quarter finals by Argentina. And the US men lost solidly lost 3-1.

Washington State football coachs Jake Dickert -“The old question of: How long would it take TV money to destroy college football? Maybe we’re here,”
But football is the marquee sport for TV. Most colleges and universities have 20 or more varsity sports. Imagine some of them now needing to go cross country for most of their games/matches. Besides the loss of TV revenue for all but the big three conferences? How long will these new conference realignments take to destroy all of college sports?

Ted Cruz attacks on Barbie are going well. “Greta Gerwig’s Barbie grossed another $53 million at the domestic box office as it hit $459.4 million in North America and crossed $1 billion globally in a huge win for the filmmakers, Warner Bros. and Mattel.”
Meanwhile in Trump’s Sunday morning rant he claimed “tourists have fled DC.
Uh “Destination DC released 2022 tourism numbers that show 20.7 million domestic tourists visited DC last year, 91% of pre-pandemic 2019 numbers & spent $8.1 billion- almost matching 2019 tourist spending.”

Can’t be said enough, whatever GOP tries to say now about her, Judge Tanya Chutkan is a strong and non-controversial judge. She was confirmed 95-0 in 2014 by the US Senate. Yes, 95-0. Even Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnell were fine with her.

Headline: “Heinz ketchup maker feels the pain as consumers push back on higher prices.” Are we sure this isn’t because of a shortage because so much of their product has ended up thrown against the walls at Bedminster and Mar-A-Lago?
Better late than never, but has any reporter thought to ask Mike Pence, if he knew what Trump was asking him was wrong, why did he seek advice from that known constitutional scholar former VP Dan Quayle?
NY Times online front page at midnight Aug 6 – 3 stories on Trump, none on Biden. Finally found Aug 4 story from Peter Baker – “Rising Tide Lifts Many Boats, but So Far Not Biden’ – how improving economy hasn’t helped Joe’s ratings. Maybe if media actually COVERED good news?

If you didn’t already love Jamie Raskin: “Even if he did [believe the election was stolen], it makes no difference. You might believe that your bank owes you some money. You don’t have a right to go rob the bank.”
As conferences along with other leisure travelers cancel on principle, another reason not to travel to Florida, if you’re pregnant or might be pregnant and have a ectopic pregnancy or some other complication, not only could Florida be where “woke goes to die,” it could be where you go to die.
