LA Beat

October 15, 2026

When the Los Angeles Dodgers decided to visit Donald Trump in the White House on July 23, their record was 65–38 (the best in baseball – 63 percent

After their visit, the Dodgers record was 35-24 -59 percent. And it would have been worse if LA hadn’t finished with 6 of their last 9 games against the SF Giants, who due to injuries and trades and NONE of their original starters left and were basically playing a Triple A lineup.

Milwaukee Brewers CF Garrett Mitchell, who just hit the go-ahead home run against the Dodgers, after hitting a home run in game 3, has Type 1 diabetes. Same as James Talarico. Just for all those trolls who think diabetes somehow keeps you from doing a tough stressful job…

–

He didn’t get series MVP but who had left-handed “Swiss Army Knife” Milwaukee reliever Aaron Ashby pitching more innings than ANY Brewers pitcher? Yes, including starters.

(6.2 scoreless innings over 3 games.)


Reuters: The order to limit a satellite system used by Ukraine for battlefield communications and drone operations came from inside the White House, according to two US officials and a Western official briefed on the matter.-

Ronald Reagan is turning over in his grave.

At some point, all the braces and personal assistants in the world won’t keep Trump from falling on camera.

What happens then?

–

Instead of talking about President Trump, maybe what the media should do is just show some of his current rallies unedited.

Might do more to convince Americans he is insane than any reporting or spin they can do.

Short version:

Bragging about passing multiple cognitive tests proves you’ve failed some cognitive tests.

–

Just need to remind voters across the US

When a GOP Senate candidate says they’ll be independent from Trump.

When was last time you can remember GOP Senator actually casting a meaningful vote against Donald?

(July 27-28, 2017, John McCain to save Obamacare. Others are lying.)

–

Apparently “The Social Reckoning” is flopping at the box office.

Makes some sense. Who wants to pay to see how horrible Facebook/Meta is – when they can see it on the news regularly.

(Today we find out Meta/Zuckerberg are major Trump ballroom donors.)

Not over

October 15, 2026

Yes, Brewers are up 3-0

Yes, I’m an SF Giants fan who roots against LA

Dodgers starting pitchers for next four games, if they happen.

Tyler Glasnow.

Tarik Skubal

Yoshinobu Yamamoto

Blake Snell.

All making over $27 million a year. Snell and Skubal over $30 million.

In a single game, would you bet against any of them

–

Oddly enough, if the Brewers make it to the World Series, with their 19th in MLB $150 million or so payroll, they would be the big money team against either the Guardians or Rays.

–

New WH Press Secretary Katie Zacharia says the confusion about her being an actual lawyer was “a big misunderstanding.”

Yep, even though she was a “general counsel” for a conservative nonprofit, she didn’t understand she’d be fact checked.


Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday that she sat for the California bar exam after graduating law school, but didn’t pass.

FBI Director Kash Patel today seriously posted on Twitter “From Russia, with love”

Are tweets considered evidence in a trial for treason?

Asking for a country.

Not talked about enough that Ken Paxton’s many scandals are not “youthful indiscretions.”
Partying with fugitives in Dubai, taking his mistress to Europe on July 4 – these are 2025-26 behaviors.
Like Trump, he thinks he can do no wrong.
Texas voters need to show Ken he is wrong.

–

JD Vance’s latest attack on Talarico “You’ve got to have the energy to do the job, and taking 2 weeks off the campaign in October — the meat of the campaign — I just think it’s a very, very bizarre thing.”

So I missed JD saying Mitch McConnell & Tom Kean should resign.

Reminder we do need to keep amplifying GOOD people in politics.

Recent Gallup poll:”Record-High 89% in U.S. Say Government Corruption Widespread.”

Now, the Grifter-in-chief is most corrupt of them all, but when Americans don’t trust any politician they think their vote doesn’t matter & stay home.

As Trump can’t even fill high-school gym sized venues, Obama Presidential Library still has over hour-long virtual queues for monthly lottery to buy ticket.

Today’s tickets were March 2027, they sold out fast & most of us have to try again next month.

This is what happens when a President is loved.
