Sucker punches

August 10, 2025

This was the first weekend of preseason football.

Apparently you could bet on it.

May I respectfully suggest that if you bet on preseason football you might have a gambling problem?

In the “pitchers are athletes” category:

Hall of Fame Closer Mariano Rivera. 55, tore an Achilles tendon while going after a fly ball at the Yankees’ Old-Timers’ Day game on Saturday and needs surgery. #ETTD

So wait, now ICE wants Supreme Court to allow them to stop and question/detain people in the US just for speaking Spanish? Uh, what about going into South Boston and demanding to see documents from everyone speaking with an Irish accent?

When you remodel and are too cheap to hire Four Seasons Landscaping:


Meanwhile, social media report: must admit, I almost thought about not blocking a bot/troll tonight because at least when they posted a nasty misogynistic reply to me they at least used “you’re” (not your) correctly to start the profane insult.

So how much of Alaska will Putin ask for?

Transgender people in sports is a complicated issue.

Transgender people who have served in military between 15 & 18 years is NOT complicated. They’re not “medically unfit. They’ve served US & risked their lives for years.

They’re being kicked out the military for nothing involving their service. They at least deserve retirement benefits.

Period.

In Atlanta, police officer was murdered today Fox News IS covering story. Sort of. ATLANTA TRAGEDY Pregnant wife left without husband after police officer killed near CDC headquarters Not in Fox Story: Shooter allegedly targeted CDC as he blamed COVID vaccine for illness.

Saturday, reports are that the black police officer was murdered yesterday by a white anti-vax US citizen allegedly trying to shoot up CDC buildings. Story already off front page of Fox News website.

But Fox TOP story Saturday “Ancient space rock blasts through Georgia roof, stuns scientists with its origins.”

NY Times Headline “After Almost Losing Trump, Putin Gets His Ideal Summit.” Fixed it for them. “After Donald made noises about forgetting their deal, Vladimir reminded Velveeta Voldemort who owns him.”

At now FBI director Kash Patel’s confirmation hearing he was questioned by Amy Klobuchar about an enemies list. He angrily said “There is no enemies list. That’s a fabrication.”

Isn’t perjuring yourself at a Senate hearing a fireable offense?

Even if you’re a Republican who voted for Trump. Firing competent FBI agents just because they were assigned to investigate January 6, affects all Americans. This is a gift to potential terrorists.

Dying to own the libs…

If most Americans approve of how you’re governing you don’t need to redraw maps to win… Just saying.

With most Trump appointees as far as how low can you go, to quote Mean Girls ‘The limit does not exist.” So what in the world did Velveeta Voldemort possibly tell now fired IRS Commissioner Billy Long that even Long wouldn’t do?

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem is claiming South Park is “so lazy to just constantly make fun of women for how they look.” South Park is many things, but “lazy?” Though to be fair it probably took less time to make the cartoon, than to do Kristi’s wardrobe and hair extensions.

Remember the OUTRAGE in 2021 when VP Kamala Harris spent about $500 of her own money on really nice cookware in Paris?

Imagine if she’d told Secret Service to raise the water level in a lake so she and her family could kayak.
