Have to wonder – and expect – that this LSU vs Iowa women’s Elite Eight game will end up with higher ratings than any men’s game short of the final. Maybe even the final. #MarchMadness

Thinking a number of people tuned in tonight who didn’t regularly watch women’s basketball. Always think it’s a shame when a really high-profile sporting event turns out to be boring, or even worse, a really sloppily played game. Tonight was not one of those nights. Caitlin Clark and Angel Reece (who played some of the game on a bad ankle) were amazing

Am in absolute awe of everything Angel Reese does on basketball court. But ESPN announcers were shocked she managed to put her contact lens back in without saline solution. Ok, as someone who has worn hard lenses since I was a teenager I can actually do that too!

If MAGAs are going to attack you for correctly recognizing a day, why not double down and declare April 1 “National Trump Day?

CNN was talking Monday morning about Donald Trump’s posts and language. And that Joe Biden’s campaign is NOT stooping to the same insults and violent rhetoric… The point being that “both sides are not the same.”

Almost expected CNN to follow that statement with “April Fools.”

Florida Supreme Court has ruled 6 week abortion ban can go into effect in 30 days! Pregnancy is dated from 1st day of last menstrual period, meaning 6 weeks is really 4 weeks from conception, or less. Before anyone with even slightly irregular periods may now they are pregnant.

Once again, really want to stop abortions? Start regulating Viagra.

As some in media talk about $20 minimum wage for CA fast-food workers being problem for franchise owners & consumers.

McDonald’s CEO Chris Kempczinski made $17.7 million in 2022.

Chipotle CEO Brian Niccol made $17.2 million.

Am sure that doesn’t affect costs at all. #sarcasm


Truth Social stock started crashing Monday. Who will Trump blame?

Those gold sneakers are now 75% off.

Truth Social stock is plummeting.

What’s next? Trump Beanie Babies?
