The heat is on
The formerly Oakland now Sacramento A’s announced a three-year agreement Friday with Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority as its official travel partner. A’s players will wear a patch with Las Vegas’ official logo on their left sleeves to remind fans of their upcoming movie in 2028
When it’s 100 degrees in Sacramento this summer am sure baseball fans will be thrilled to imagine that eventually they can travel to watch their team in Las Vegas where it can get to over 110.

Apparently MAGA unhappy that Amy Coney Barrett has shown signs of independence from Trump are pointing to a story that she had someone from Hamilton sing songs at Ketanji Brown Jackson’s welcome party as proof that Barrett is not a “real” conservative.

How many MAGA know that Scalia and RBG were good friends and went to the opera together?

DonOld reportedly considering moving 35,000 US troops from Germany to Hungary.
The same Hungary that is no longer considered a democracy. Putin must be so proud.

Military now is apparently going to remove pictures of the Enola Gay for violating DEI rules –
Because the plane has “Gay” in its name.
This would be funny if it weren’t our democracy we’re talking about.
What’s now, getting rid of “My Old Kentucky Home?” “It’s summer, the people are gay.” Or “Deck the Halls?” “Don we now our gay apparel.”

If MAGA is so upset about culling chickens with bird flu maybe these chicken farmers ought to sell the dead birds with bird flu to them to eat. The problem could work itself out

When Palo Alto had a major controversy over traffic near downtown, a wise man said “Traffic is anyone but me driving on my block.” Government spending is like that for MAGA “Wasteful spending” is any government spending that doesn’t directly benefit ME.

Stunning to see how many Americans (along w/ bots) now view DOGE hackers as heroes. Will be interesting to see how they feel when repercussions from breaking things affect them personally. Thinking tax refunds, national park vacations, social security checks will start it out.

Per NY Times. DOT Secretary Sean Duffy “said the young staff of Mr. Musk’s team was trying to lay off air traffic controllers. What am I supposed to do? I have multiple plane crashes to deal with now, and your people want me to fire air traffic controllers?”

Trump apparently plans on another travel ban that will include his former list of Cuba, Iran, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Venezuela and Yemen. Uh, as Donald has alienated most of the free world aren’t many of those countries still the only friends he has left?
–
So Donald is now attacking the trade deal he claims he himself negotiated with Mexico and Canada. Begging the question? Is it being an evil liar? Or is it dementia?

Stephen Colbert: “Millions of young people cannot stand Elon Musk. And those are just his kids.”

Seemed relevant today.
“Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer; Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world.”
Especially as the falconer has probably been fired & rehired twice already since January 20.

WTAF? Troy Edgar, Trump’s choice for DHS Deputy Secretary, talked movingly during confirmation hearing of his wife who fled Iran after Shah was overthrown.
And part of his job at DHS will be to deport similar legal refugees who fled Ukraine, Afghanistan, Haiti, etc.
Make it make sense.
Donald has said he will create a new agency called the External Revenue Service to collect tariffs and there’s been talk he wants it to replace the IRS.
Yeah, that’s going to work real well when he changes his mind every other day on tariffs.
So has President Musk told Trump he can sign a (meaningless) Executive order every day to keep Donold busy?
