World Series starts Friday, but no baseball last night or tonight.

A sad precursor to winter.

“It breaks your heart, it was designed to break your heart…”

Good for the Diamondbacks saying they are “fueled by doubters.” But for all the improbable World Series teams fueled by doubters, there are far more teams with doubters watching the World Series from their couches.

Dusty Baker in announcing his retirement “This isn’t a goodbye, it’s simply a ‘see you later.'” Dusty lives in Sacramento area. If “see you later” might include becoming (again) a special assistant in San Francisco, SF Giants (and their fans) would be very happy.

Mike Johnson already fundraising w/ rants & lies, calling Dems “radical left” & socialists, citing God repeatedly & claiming “Pledge is being taken out of school because it mentions God.” Uh, Pledge of Allegiance NEVER mentioned God. Until it was added by Eisenhower in 1954.

–

Rep. Matt Gaetz ““If you don’t think that moving from Kevin McCarthy to MAGA Mike Johnson shows the ascendance of this movement & where the power in the Republican Party truly lies, then you’re not paying attention.” When Gaetz is right, he’s right. #VoteBlue

How long until GOP claims the latest mass shooting is a mental health not a gun problem. (actually many already have.) While at the same time Republicans will try not to expand and actually to reduce mental health benefits.

–

So many questions about Maine mass shooting. But #1- suspect recently reported mental health issues, had allegedly made threats to shoot up National Guard base & was reportedly committed to mental health facility for 2 weeks this summer. So how did he have an AR-15 gun? #murica

Nobody really thinks the 2nd Amendment was intended to allow Americans to all have their own cannons.

So why does anyone pretend the 2nd Amendment was intended to allow Americans to all have their own assault weapons?

–

Death toll still unknown in Acapulco. But While many Americans may not care what happens in Mexico, Hurricane Otis went from expected tropical storm to Category 5 hurricane in less than 24 hours, giving residents no time to evacuate.

One of these times with climate change a disaster like this will happen in the USA…

–

Daily Mail headline :Republicans FINALLY have a Speaker after 22 days: Farce is over as Trump-backed Louisiana Rep. Mike Johnson is set to win the gavel.” Uh, I’d say the farce is just getting started.

–

Mike Johnson is against same-sex marriage, but is a proponent of “covenant marriage.” So can someone ask him on camera how he feels about Donald Trump’s three marriages and affairs. Along with the marriages of many of his divorced colleagues like Lauren Boebert?

–

“Apparently experience isn’t necessary for speaker job. We’re down to folks who haven’t had leadership or chairmanship roles, which means their administration of the House will be a new experience for them.” Mitt Romney, who at Bain almost certainly wouldn’t hire a CEO like Johnson.

–

GOP Rep Don Bacon acknowledged he disagreed with some of new House Speaker Johnson’s positions — including Mike’s vote against certifying 2020 election but said “you’re not going to get perfection in this business.”

Other than that Mrs. Lincoln, what did you think of the play?

–

Tump’s insults aren’t anything new. In 2018 he tweeted – ” NY Times & third rate reporter named Maggie Haberman, known as Crooked H flunkie who I don’t speak to & have nothing to do with.”..

But today Donald’s referring to the NY Times reporter who has done so much sycophantic journalism over the years for him, calling her Maggot Hagerman (sic) does indicate more reverting to childhood or senilty though.

–

On top of everything else, new right-wing MAGA speaker Mike Johnson lobbied for the “Ark Encounter.” So if Ark story is true & only Noah’s family of 8 survived to multiply & replenish Earth, that means Johnson, who’s against gay marriage, is okay with incest?

CNN reports potential bipartisan temporary rule change proposal MAY go to Senate Rules Committee as soon as next week to try to get around coach Tuberville’s military holds. Still a long shot. But if anyone can get such a delicate maneuver passed, it’s Rules chair Amy Klobuchar.
