Nothing against the Knicks but seeing how much ESPN, the NBA and most media are rooting for New York in the finals, got to be cheering for the Pacers. Oklahoma City, Indianapolis and Minneapolis together don’t quite have 2 million population.

The 10 FBS commissioners & Notre Dame AD Pete Bevacqua, the CFP’s management committee, said they are moving to a straight playoff seeding model this fall, giving the committee’s top four teams the top four seeds and a first-round bye. (Instead of giving those spots to the four top ranked conference winners.)

The change benefits Notre Dame and the SEC. What took them so long?

Colorado Rockies have fallen to 8-42 — now the worst start of a year since 1895.

Watching the headlines since January 20, 2025, is it time to name the Rockies “America’s team?”

Why are media going so hard now against Biden?

Seems to me answer is simple: Their normalizing Trump & both-sides-ism last year really helped Donald get reelected. Easier to blame Joe than to accept blame for the disaster for America that is Velveeta Voldemort’s second term.

Trump plays a faked video and lies about white Genocide in South Africa. Posting pictures from the Congo as being in South African among other things.

Meanwhile Fox Faux News presents this all as fact. “HAPPENING NOW: Trump confronts South African president with video on treatment of White farmers.”

State TV has arrived.

As GOP goes nuclear on the filibuster to pass a law against California’s Clean Air act, imagine how they’ll react if when Democrats get power again Senate dems use the same trick to go after, for example, red-state anti-abortion laws?

Defunding Planned Parenthood doesn’t save lives.

Many poor women not only won’t be able to get birth control, or STD testing, they won’t get wellness checks or cancer screenings. & if women get pregnant, GOP just made it harder for them to get Medicaid & SNAP. Pro life my ass

–

For purposes of Medicaid/SNAP work requirement GOP is dropping age of dependent children whose parents must work to 7. Yes, seven. Of course if you leave a seven year old home alone or even let them walk home from school alone you’ll probably be arrested for child endangerment.

If you needed any more proof of how awful Jake Tapper’s book is, Press Secretary Barbie (AKA Caroline Leavitt was praising it today.

Meanwhile CNN increasingly focuses less on news and more on hyping their colleague’s book. They’re going to need to change their name from CNN to CCN – Change Channel Network

Should be a bigger story.

Democratic Rep. Sylvester Turner, who was only 70, passed away, March 2. Greg Abbott refused to call a special election until Nov 4, so district will not have a representative for most of 2025. GOP & Trump’s bloated ugly bill passed by ONE vote.-

Supposedly this bill from hell has $1000 for babies born to US Citizens going into “Trump accounts.” To encourage people having babies. ” The average cost of infant care in the US is over $1000 for ONE MONTH.

Colorado Democratic Rep Joe Neguse makes simple point on bill hearing that started at 1am. What’s the urgency that it couldn’t have started at 6a, 7a? The only reason to debate this Bloated Ugly bill in middle of the night is that GOP hopes Americans never find out what they are doing.

GOP Press conference boasting about the big ugly bill they passed by one vote looks like a polar bear conference, only whiter.
