Not closing time.

May 21, 2024

SF Giants, up 6-2 with one out and nobody on in the bottom of the 9th, manage to lose 7-6 to the Pittsburgh Pirates. Absolute worst loss of the season.

Indiana Pacers up 3 with 10 seconds left AND possession to inbound the ball against the Boston Celtics… “hold our beer.”

Nothing is certain but death, taxes, and fouling when you are up 3 with under 10 seconds to go…

Even LeBron James on Twitter :”And yall still wanna know why I would foul up 3 EVERY SINGLE TIME.

Velveeta Voldemort is still ranting in fundraising emails that he’s “been forced to sit fully gagged while Biden’s cronies spread vicious lies.” If only Donald Trump had been given the opportunity to testify…. Oh wait, never mind.


How can Donald Trump have the unmitigated gall to ask voters to elect him to defend our country when he doesn’t even have the courage to defend himself?

Former Maryland Governor and current GOP U.S. Senate candidate Larry Hogan claims now he’ll support abortion rights.

But if Biden is re-elected Hogan will vote against Joe’s judicial nominees. And if Trump is elected he’d vote to confirm all Donald’s choices.

Maybe Susan Collins will give him some lessons in being “concerned?”

So for all the media coverage of attacks on Fani Willis, including plenty of puritanical piling on for her relationship choices.. seems like it should be a big story that she won her primary for re-elections with 87% of the vote.

Also hey media, if you’re so fascinated by Donald Trump why isn’t anyone doing investigative story on potential medical issues which could cause someone to be constantly and uniquely complaining about being cold?

Some are quite serious.

One of today’s Trump fundraising rants. SECURE TRUMP MEMO: NIKKI HALEY NOT UNDER VP CONSIDERATION! But, I wish her well… Translation “Nikki is too popular, isn’t abject enough and would outshine me, there’s no CHANCE I’d have ever chosen her.”

Politico figures out the simple headine so much of the major national media couldn’t. “New York trial winds down — without Trump’s testimony The former president declined to take the witness stand as the defense rested its case.”


And today Senate Judiciary Committee had a hearing on presciption drug prices…. Crickets in the national media. They’d far rather cover Velveeta Voldemort’s latest insane rants on his failing social media platform.

And yet so far

The NBA is potentially 4-7 games away from a Boston-Dallas final.

The NBA is also potential 4-7 games away from an Indiana-Minnesota final.

As a fan of underdogs if the San Antonio Spurs aren’t in it, I’d enjoy watching the later. Guessing NBA and their sponsors may not agree with me.

ESPN headline ” Embattled WR Rashee Rice attending Chiefs’ OTAs.”

Embattled? That word means beset by problems or difficulties.

Rice was been charged with one count of aggravated assault, one count of collision involving serious bodily injury and six counts of collision involving injury for his involvement in a six-car crash on a freeway, where he was allegedly racing at speeds up to 119 MPH. All the victims survived., but Rice is lucky he’s not in prison for at least manslaughter.

Listening to Fani Willis talk with Rachel Maddow about needing 24 hour security, another thing national media isn’t covering enough: How many people, from election workers, to Dr. Fauci, to judges & DAs live now in fear for their lives just because they dared to challenge Donald Trump?

As Trump whines nonstop about being cold, and is working on an excuse as to why he won’t testify, your reminder. You know who didn’t complain and testified for 11 HOURS?

Hillary Clinton.

As Trump continues to whine about the ‘freezing cold courtroom,” the only logical explanation is that he knows putting on a jacket or sweater makes him look even more fat.

How is CNN going to cope when this trial is over and they actually have to go back to covering real news?

Meanwhile Democrats are trying to resuscitate the bipartisan border bill this week, and dealing with other issues like trying to include Dental care in Obamacare, plus other issues including bipartisan issues like monopolies and price fixing.

Not that actual real legislation counts with today’s national media as “real news.”
