ESPN reports that Victor Wembanyama with a sprained right ankle is likely to sit vs the Golden State Warriors in SF.

–
That moment as a Spurs fan in the SF Bay Area that you’re really glad you didn’t decide to splurge to see San Antonio’s rookie phenom

–

Meanwhile, on a positive basketball note, the Big Ten women’s basketball tournament, in Minneapolis is sold out, for the first time ever.

And have to wonder, is this the first time more casual American sports fans can name a top woman’s college player before they can name a men’s NCAA basketball star?

–

Meanwhile at SOTU speech, I’m about 17 years younger than President Biden, and I wish I had his Dark Brandon energy.

–

President Biden references overturning Roe V. Wade. “With all due respect justices, women are not without electoral and political power. You’re about to find out how much.”

–

We may have a ketchup shortage in Florida with all the ketchup that must be being thrown against the wall tonight at Mar-A-Lago. Helluva SOTU speech, and the former reality TV host knows it.

–

Truly awful. Katie Britt has nerve to claim “Americans are dying” because of President Biden while her own party scuttled a border security bill. No mention of Americans dying from gun culture or from domestic violence. Those lives don’t matter to GOP.

–

And Katie Britt has nerve to talk about “our word is our bond” as Americans. Uh, if as a Republican Britt is not completely against reading, may I suggest reading the Afghan Adjustment Act? And about NATO, & about Putin & Ukraine. And a little history, starting with Hilter?

–

Ted Cruz spoke on Senate floor to honor Zeb Smith, fire chief who died fighting panhandle fire. & to ask for federal aid for Texas. Good speech but

1.Would it kill him to acknowledge Biden immediately offered federal assistance

2..Cruz voted no on federal aid for NJ after Sandy. And to Colorado after their fires.

–

New Alabama law temporarily shields IVF clinics from liability if embryos are damaged or destroyed. It doesn’t address if egg fertilized outside womb is a person. Uh, IF life begins at conception, then embryo IS a person. GOP doesn’t care about life. They care about control.

–

Meanwhile in California:

Didn’t vote for Barbara Lee, but admire her. “We’ll continue to mobilize voters throughout state & demand action for better California & not settle for 1/2 measures. I congratulate my colleague, Rep. Adam Schiff on his victory in advancing in this race.”

–

While Katie Porter claims her election loss was “rigged by billionaires.” It was an expensive primary campaign and both Porter and Schiff had serious money. Schiff’s ad’s didn’t attack Porter, they reminded voters Garvey was the top Republican, which boosted Garvey, and he ended up in 2nd place.

But with three Democrats running there was always a chance any GOP candidate could squeak into 2nd. Most of my Dem friends agree that Porter is being a sore loser.


But when a Republican loses and claims the election was rigged, most of his/her followers just fall in line and agree.

–

NY Times “Mitch McConnell Endorses Trump, Whom He Once Denounced.” I like Stephen Colbert’s line better ” Tortoise Endorses Hair.”

After a maybe not so Super Tuesday?

–

Politics aside, sure does seem sometimes like NBA players are as bored with the regular season as the media is with Joe Biden’s Presidency.

–

Opening day is March 28, 2024. Three weeks away.

I’m so old I remember when this time of year you’d wonder who’d win starting jobs for a few positions at your favorite teams. Not if many players, especially Scott Boras clients, would be on your favorite teams?

–

EIGHT Democratic candidates were on the California ballot for the Presidential primary.

Haven’t heard of most of them. But how’s media going to spin the few who vote for each of them as bad news for Biden?

–

And answer to a trivia question a two part trivia question some day.

  1. Who won the California Democratic Presidential primary in 2020? Bernie Sanders (Kamala Harris was still neutral at the time, not sure if it would have mattered)
  2. Who finished second in 2024 ? Marianne Williamson.

–

Alex Wagner on Joe Biden – “He is not a great campaigner, he has been a really effective President.” Nailed it. Why is it so hard for many Americans to realize democracy is not a reality TV show.

–

Trump fundraising email subject line “I’ll never stop loving you.” DId Donald write it looking in the mirror?

–

Have to wonder….as Mitch McConnell, who is already stepping down as Senate leaders, endorses a man who has insulted him for years, and still attacks his wife with racial slurs, is there ANYTHING Trump could do that would go too far for these cowards?

–

Trump International Hotel, Waikiki has rebranded as the Wākea Waikiki Beach. So the hotel was able to cleanse themselves of the Trump name. Too bad the GOP couldn’t do the same.

–

Arizona GOP Senate candidate Kari Lake is now trying to convince Republicans and independents that she is no longer MAGA. Sorry, Kari’s been MAGA much longer than 15 weeks, it’s way too late to terminate.

–

Fun sidebar from last night: Adam Schiff in top 2 for US Senator in California. So Stanford with plenty of representation in Congress already, now is likely to have two alums in Senate two years apart: Adam Schiff, class of 1982 & Minnesota’s Tina Smith, class of 1980!

Not sure if greed or fear is stopping them. But there’s legitimate argument to be made for Republican with long-term aspirations to say “Given alternatives, I’ll vote GOP for House/Senate, but I’m voting for Biden so we have a country & a democracy left to fight over in 2028.”

–

Unpopular opinion: Have often been furious at Kyrsten Sinema. But had Martha McSally won AZ in 2018, Mitch McConnell would’ve kept gavel 2 more years. Worst Democrat now is better than best Republican. Something we need to remember in purple states, especially primaries.

Not a bad Super Tuesday for Democrats.

But if there were a primary referendum on the color of the sky, some voters in the party would vote for an alternative to blue as not being pure enough.

Not so elderly man with poor memory?

While memory and age are big in the political headlines these days, Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards had to come off the bench tonight because he missed the game’s opening tipoff.

He “lost track of time.”

Edwards is 22.

–

Approaching conference tournaments before March madness, have to think this might be the first year that many casual sports fans actually are invested as much in the women’s college basketball tournament as the men’s. Or heck, at least name more than 1-2 teams.

–

Scott Boras says interest is up in his pitcher clients Blake Snell and Jordan Montgomery. Up from what?

Thinking if Boras was willing to entertain reasonable offers they might both be signed now.

–

Just read up on Louisiana, where IVF embryos are considered “persons.”

They must be “transferred into patient, stored forever at patient’s expense or donated to married couple.” Single people who want a baby cannot be given an embryo.

It’s not about life, it’s about control.

–

Trump talking this morning about ANY President needing full immunity.

So this means President Biden can do whatever he wants…including arresting someone he believes to be a traitor to our country? Got it.

–

As Trump pledges not to give money to schools with any vaccine mandate should the GOP’s motto really be “Books are more dangerous than viruses?”

–

Rachel Maddow tonight talks about a new bill in Oklahoma that would create a database of women who have had abortions. No joke. What could possibly go wrong?

–

Your regular reminder.

Prosecutor having sex with staffer isn’t smart, but it is not “conflict of interest” in case about trying to overturn an election. What IS a conflict of interest? Being married to an insurrectionist & being a judge in case about overturning the election.

Lara Trump says when she becomes co-Chair of the Republican Party, “anyone” who doesn’t support Trump and MAGA will be told to “leave” the party.

Well, if any of them are left, Democratic phone lines are open.

–

Media talking about how Nikki Haley finally won a primary. In DC. Not exactly a bastion of Republicanism.

These are the vote totals, no, no zeros have been dropped. She got 1,274 votes, Donald got 676. I’ve seen TSA lines with more people.

–


Trump actually just said he would not “give a penny to schools that have a vaccine mandate.” Great news if you’re pro-polio, measles, mumps, etc. And how many pregnant women will miscarry if/when they get German measles/rubella?

–

And Trump also claimed as President he took out some very big people, the “leading terrorists we’ve ever seen,” would some reporter ask him to name them? Actually to name even one of them. I’ll wait.

Congratulations to Caitlin Clark, for breaking the all-time NCAA scoring record set by Pete Maravich today.

–

And while as a late bloomer I might be in a minority of people who remember Pistol Pete, how cool is it that most sports fans, even if they don’t love women’s sports or basketball, know who Caitlin Clark is?

–

And if fans of men’s basketball, college and NBA still complain women don’t score enough..

Iowa’s women’s basketball team with their 93-83 win today over Ohio State, outscored both the Clippers and Timberwolves in Los Angeles’s 89-88 win over Minnesota.

Yes, I know it’s not the same game….

–

–

Warriors Celtics is today’s NBA showcase game. If your idea of a showcase was Christians Lions.

Halftime score 38-82. Not a typo

–

Do NY Times and Washington Post actually interview people who are pleased with President Biden?
I’m sure they do, but it’s like Jaywalking used to be. If Jay Leno asked questions of smart people who gove smart answers, or even normal people who gave semi-smart answers then they didn’t get on air.

–

–

NY Times headline “Republicans Nod to Trump’s Influence in Race to Succeed McConnell.”

Can’t stand McConnell, he broke SCOTUS & much of our democracy with it. But if he’d just voted to impeach Trump after Jan 6 Donald wouldn’t be able to run in 2024.

Mitch owns this too.

–

One of most repulsive things about today’s media: If pretty white woman or girl is killed by a partner, a stalker, ex-boyfriend, pedophile, random sociopath, it’s a brief flash in news cycle.

If it’s a black or brown girl it might not even make the national news cycle.

But if a young woman’s allleged killer is undocumented, her photo is shown regularly for weeks at least.

–

Yes, Fani Willis could have used better judgment. But if a pro-Trump while male judge was found to have had a sexual relationship with a staffer, MAGA GOP would either dismiss it or put it down to a mark of his virility

–

Stock market at record highs, car prices finally falling, Biden helping Texas during horrific wildfire without attacking the red state, crime is down… And NY Times has headline -For Democrats Pining for an Alternative, Biden Team Has a Message: Get Over It. They miss Trump

–

Trump says moderate Republicans are no longer welcome in the GOP “We’re getting rid of the Romneys…we are 100 percent MAGA.”

Dear Senator Lisa Murkowski.

Although we disagree on many things I will defend you if you become a conservative Democrat or Independent who caucuses with Democrats.

We have a big blue messy tent. But we’re not insane.

–

NY Times headline “Republicans Nod to Trump’s Influence in Race to Succeed McConnell.”

Can’t stand McConnell, he broke SCOTUS & much of our democracy with it.

But if he’d just voted to impeach Trump after Jan 6 Donald wouldn’t be able to run in 2024

–

Suppose it’s good to see GOP signs of sanity with Nikki Haley beating Trump with 62.% of votes in DC Primary.

But leaving aside small number of Republican voters in DC why does media report 80-90% of Democrats voting for President BIden as bad. As Joe actually WON an election.

For all the headlines Caitlin Clark is getting, and all the records she is breaking, this might be part of her most memorable legacy. – in 2024 her recent games have scalper selling tickets at Final Four World Series prices.

–

Meanwhile, the SF Giant have finally won their first Spring training game. On a brighter note, the team is undefeated in March.

And Giants signed Matt Chapman. Will he be a great Giant? Hope so. At least he’s not another ‘San Francisco was a strong contender but. I signed with fill-in-the-blank” guy.

–

Russians lined up for hours for Navalny’s funeral service. 115 people were arrested.

Thy know they were risking their freedom, maybe even their lives to attend the service. But these Russians care about their country and democracy. All we need to do in America, in 2024, at least, is to VOTE.

–

As student of British history am struck by how many in GOP think they will get power by supporting & enabling Trump & will still avoid being thrown under bus by him someday. Many ambitious people felt the same way about Henry VIII. Most of them ended up in pieces. Literally.

–

So John Cornyn is running to replace Mitch McConnell as GOP leader in the Senate. How’s that gonna work out if Texas secedes?

–

Nikki Haley just told Dana Bash Friday morning “Michael and I got our children from “fertility processes” So is she saying she used IVF?

And if so how can Haley not be in favor of legislation to protect all Americans having access to the process? #weathervane

–


Biden on Texas wildfires: ‘When disasters strike there’s no red states or blue states’

Joe directed feds to do “everything possible” to assist fire-affected communities & has FEMA guaranteeing TX & OK will be reimbursed for costs. Has a single GOP Texan thanked him? I’ll wait.

–

GOP telling us relationship with staffer is grounds to be removed as prosecutor on case about overturning an election.

GOP also telling us being MARRIED to someone involved in insurrection to overturn election not cause to be removed as SCOTUS judge on case. Make it make sense.

–

And GOP talking nonstop on nursing student murdered in GA by an immigrant. But nothing on 11-yr-old girl murdered by American w/ record for enticing a child.

Or 2 MN police + 1st responder murdered by an American man w/ priors for domestic violence.

Or 13 year old girl killed in Kissimmee Florida by her mother’s American boyfriend, who may have been abusing her for a couple years.

GOP care about politics, not life.

–

If you know ANYONE who is just the slightest bit interested in voting for RFK Jr. simply tell them this: RFK Jr. wants the GOP leader in the Senate to be Rand Paul. No joke.

–

The wildfire in the Texas panhandle is now the largest fire in Texas history.

President Biden has sent federal help and indicated FEMA will reimburse Texas and Oklahoma for costs. Joe did this without any negativity towards state whose leaders fight him at every turn. Why isn’t media covering this?

–

Stephen Colbert on Trump’s delay tactics: “Dec 11, 23, Jack Smith begged SCOTUS to rule, they sent to appeals court, which ruled against Trump unanimously, so SCOTUS will now take up case in April. Proceedings have been frozen so long they legally count as children in Alabama.”

And Hey media. Will SOMEONE ask GOP now falling all over themselves to say they support IVF about multifetal pregnancy reduction? It’s defined “as 1st or early 2nd trimester procedure for reducing total number of fetuses in a multifetal pregnancy by 1 or more.” And yes, many women have to make that choice. And yes, it’s abortion

So the A’s are out of their Oakland lease after 2024. Looks like sharing their stadium with the SF Giants isn’t feasible. There are minor league stadiums in Sacramento, Salt Lake City, and Las Vegas.

What about a return to the baseball history days of barnstorming? Not completely kidding. They’d probably draw more around the country at various retired stadiums or AAA ballparks than in Oakland.

–

Tickets for Iowa women’s season basketball final game now against Ohio State,- with Caitlin Clark poised to break Pete Maravich’s all time college scoring record, start at about $500 to get in the door, with ticket prices going up over $5,000.

For those of us who aren’t going to Iowa, the game will be televised on ESPN.

Love the fact that these ticket prices are higher even than Ohio State football bowl games.

You go girl.

–

Meanwhile, Susan Collins, on Mitch McConnell, “I felt compelled to thank him for devoting his life to public service for all the right reasons, to improve the lives of people in our great country** Well, unless you’re a woman who counted on reproductive rights. For starters.

–

Mitch McConnell stepping down almost guarantees a Trump supporter will lead Republicans in the Senate. This would be a great time for Lisa Murkowski to become an independent & work out how to caucus with Democrats. Yes, she’s conservative on most issues, but she’s not crazy.

–

Remember that old joke about a guy who murdered his parents and asked for sympathy from the court because he was an orphan?

Well, Donald Trump has been delaying his trials for over a year and now wants sympathy from the courts because those trials will be too close to the election.

–

Brett Kavanaugh on bump stock prohibition on guns: “Even if you’re not aware of legal prohibition, you can be convicted…That’s going to ensnare a lot of people who arent aware of the legal prohibition.” So Brett wants to strike down all laws people can claim to be unaware of?

–

So MAGA Mike Johnson kicked the can down the road to avoid a government shutdown for another week. If course if the Speaker really gave a damn about keeping the government open he could have cut the House’s two week vacation short.

–


SCOTUS will somewhat unexpectedly take on Trump immunity case. Unintended consequences? If they rule for absolute Presidential immunity, Joe Biden can claim regardless of the election results, he can stay in White House himself if he feels Trump is threat to our democracy.

In California, voting by mail is straightforward and easy…. they verify signatures & also track your ballot. So far, 6 days before election, fewer than 10% of ballots have been returned, which is considerably lower than average. Hoping for a good election day turnout.

Even in blue state there are close races, We need to do better. VOTE!

Match races

Some US media reporting on Biden’s 81% in Michigan vs Trump’s 68% reminds me of an old Soviet Union joke:

A USA car beat a Russia car in a match race. Pravda headline “In race today Russian car came in second. The American car came in next to last.”

–

Wait, according to Stephen Colbert, Trump says he doesn’t have to post bond “because he’s too rich?” Uh, wasn’t Donald’s conviction for lying and overinflating his assets?

–

Has any reporter asked a Democrat voting uncommitted in Michigan over Biden not magically getting a ceasefire in Gaza if they really want to return to a President who will reinstitute a Muslim band, plus arrest and even deport protesters?

I’m waiting,

WTF Washington Post headline:

“Biden wins MI primary but faces notable showing by ‘uncommitted. On GOP side, former president Donald Trump continued sweep of early primary contests.”

President Biden – 81.2%, “uncommitted” 13% Trump -68%, Haley 26.7%

Thinking Jeff Bezos really wants his tax cuts?

–

“House Speaker Mike Johnson said he hoped Congress could avert government shutdown. “We have been working in good faith around-the-clock every single day for months and weeks.” Uh, two weeks ago MAGA Mike sent House home for two week vacation. Does he think we’re that stupid?

–

Meanwhile in Hawaii, a tourist claiming he wanted to see the sunrise, drove his rental SUV off a cliff on the Big Island – in an area rental car companies tell you not to drive due to poor road conditions and lack of cell service.

He survived with minor injuries.

Thinking someone is lucky to be alive.

And someone is about to learn about those waivers with rental car insurance.

–

Louisiana Senator John Kennedy talking today about how teenage children are not mature enough to make decisions on gender-affirming care. But he and most of GOP have no problem with saying children are mature enough to become parents if they get pregnant -even by rape or incest.

–

Mitch McConnell & John Thune, two top-ranked GOP leaders, today yielded to conservatives to call for all Senate to conduct a full trial of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.

Maybe Majority Leader Chuck Schumer should schedule trial for nights and weekends.

Play stupid games win stupid prizes.

–

Trump lawyer badgering Terrence Bradley over him saying Nathan Wade only told him once about dating Fani Willis.

Speaking as a woman who has often talked & joked with others about how little men talk to male friends about anything personal, why is that statement controversial?

–

From Seth Meyers’ question on his age: “Other guy – he’s about as old as I am, but he can’t remember his wife’s name,” President Biden said, referring to appearance where Trump referred to Melania as “Mercedes.” Can anyone imagine if Joe stumbled over Jill’s name?

After Duke center Kyle Filipowski was injured by fans storming the court at Wake Forest, and Caitlin Clark was knocked down at Ohio State, there’s been some call for the NCAA to ban court storming after basketball games.

How about this

A five minute head start for players to get off the court. Then storm away. The only people who in that case would get hurt would be the stormers themselves.

–

Dodgers re-signed Kiki Hernandez for 1 year, $4 million. So he’s making TWICE what Shohei Ohthani will make in 2024.

–

As most of us went to work Monday morning, your reminder that the House GOP is still on vacation, with not only the foreign aid and border bills languishing, but a government shutdown looming in about 10 days.

Mitch McConnell speech today largely focused on grocery prices. So why didn’t he mention Biden’s FTC just moved to help consumers by suing to block Kroger-Albertson merger?!!

McConnell doesn’t want Biden to have even a grocery price success/ Or is it maybe because Mitch’s wife Elaine Chao is on the board of directors at Kroger.

–

As Trump appeals keeps saying there were no victims in his civll fraud case… How many million of Americans at some point couldn’t get a loan, or paid a much higher rate, because we told the banks HONESTLY what our salaries and assets were?

–

–

New idea: If House won’t invite Pres. Biden to give State of the Union at U.S. Capitol, why doesn’t Joe use GOP-approved move – a speech on White House South Lawn?

No Republican complained when Donald had his RNC speech there & there’s room for Congress if they want to attend.

–

Republican Senator Kevin Cramer,hoping for quick resolution and indicating his distaste for Mayorkas impeachment. “There’s so much happening. … We already know the outcome, so why would we spend time on a pointless exercise. Trump attacking Cramer as a RINO in 3.2.1…

A “travel related” case of measles has been reported in Central Florida. Where Deathsantis’s anti-vax Surgeon General has said parents can choose if they keep their unvaccinated kids home when they get measles. Good thing there’s not a lot of tourism to Central Florida…

–

So a former consultant for Dean Phillips now admits his role in trying to convince Democrats not to vote in New Hampshire primary. The odds of Phillips winning even one delegate have been low. Sometimes I think the odds of Dean being arrested for fraud are getting higher.

–

Rachel Maddow tonight on Steve Bannon etc now claiming EVERY election GOP loses is stolen, including non-close elections like Tom Suozzi’s win in NY. A bad thing about MSM media being doom & gloom on Biden: If/when Joe wins in Nov, it fuels GOP claims that Trump should have won.

–

So Trump lost about 40% of vote in South Carolina primary & media painted it as a huge win. Now approaching Michigan primary CNN talking about protest votes against President Biden over Gaza. Thinking any number over 2% will be painted as “very concerning” for his re-election.

–

Looks like US may get pandas again. The San Diego Zoo could have them as early as this summer.

And apparently the pandas’ return to the US rooted in meetings between President Biden & President Xi in California in November. During the face-to-face meetings, the two presidents discussed ways to ease tensions between the two nations.

Another Dark Brandon win!!!

Richard Sherman arrested for DUI, second time in less than three years, though he reached a plea deal after his 2021 arrest.

Uh, Sherman is a Stanford grad, supposedly a smart guy, has

lots of money. Nothing against drinking but why do these guys never think of hiring a driver. Or Lyft/Uber.

AT&T is apologizing to customers and ‘making it right’ with $5 credit to customers after last week’s hours-long outage. Five whole dollars. “Siri, give me an example of adding insult to injury.”

Lindsey Graham, May 2016 “If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed, and we will deserve it. Feb 2024 “Prominent South Carolina supporters such as Lindsey Graham circulating among reporters at increasingly loud Trump watch party” Hope John McCain haunts Lindsey’s dreams.

Many in GOP now saying they support IVF, popular with wealthy white people. So can some reporter ask them about “selective reduction?” It’s a medical procedure to abort some fetuses if IVF results in too many “successful” pregancies. Tough but often necessary CHOICE for women.

–

Beto O’Rourke, on book tour, decides to push Democrats to vote “uncommitted” in Michigan primary. It makes national headlines.

Amy Klobuchar & Debbie Stabenow, both in Senate Leadership, have been jn Michigan together to support & campaign for President Biden.

Crickets from national media.

–

MSM talks about huge win for Trump when Nikki Haley got 40% of votes in South Carolina.

Meanwhile, crickets on 96% President Biden got in South Carolina, while media still loves to talk about Dean Phillips, who got 1.7%, fewer than Marianne Williamson who suspended her campaign.

–

Nikki Haley, 52, & apparently sane, genuflected before Donald Trump during most of GOP primary season, only turning against him – and even then on style points – just before South Carolina,

And it didn’t work. It’s. A. Cult.

Trump speaking to Black conservatives went off on tangent as to if Barry Bonds or Babe Ruth held baseball home run record. Donald said it was Bonds but added “In front of another group, I may be with the Babe.” He’s not just a racist, he’s an idiot.
Number #2 on the all-time Home Run list is Hank Aaron

.

NY Times TOP headline online this morning: “Costs of two years of war in Ukraine have been enormous. But many Russians are feeling optimistic. How many positive signs for US economy does

Something else on President Biden vs Trump & their ages.

Joe has family who loves him. And it’s very clear Jill watches out for him, encourages him to eat healthily, get rest, exercise; as we all hope our partners do for us.

Does anyone love Donald and would he listen anyway?

Satan is trending over on Twitter.. Has he been floated as a possible Donald Trump 2024 running mate?

–

If you had any doubt for Dean Phillips it’s all about HIM & his hubris, he’s now comparing himself to Liz Cheney as equal sort of political martyrs for their beiefs, and he’s now moved his ageism beyond Joe Biden to say Amy Klobuchar, 63, shouldn’t run for another term in Senate. Klobuchar is one of most effective leaders Democrats have.

Dean gives mediocre white men a bad name

Too soon to start a pool on when Dean Phillips will become a pundit for Fox? Or – he’s a multimillionaire with family money – when he’ll move to a red state and declare himself a Republican before running for office there?

–

Ron DeSantis’s handpicked. Florida surgeon general is anti-vaccine, and now defying science amid measles outbreak in the state, saying parents can decide whether to keep their kids home from school or not when they are sick WITH MEASLES.

2024 will be the first with a 12 team College Football Playoff. Now apparently they’re talking about 14-team CFP Playoff starting in after 2026 season.

How long until they just go to 64 teams? And then maybe a play-in round. Follow the $$$

Not just political media that loves drama.

ESPN headline ” The teetering Warriors dynasty. They were going to try to have it all and it backfired.”

Now, I am a San Antonio Spurs fan, not a Warriors fan, and yes, Golden State has been solidly mediocre for much of the season.

But, uh, four championships since 2014… thinking fans of most other NBA teams would be glad to have had things “backfired” like they have for the Warriors.

Biden administration cancels $1.2B in student loans with new repayment plan

Seems like this would be popular with younger people and progressives. But waiting for national media either to ignore story, or say why it’s not that good for President Biden.

As the Alabama Supreme court rules that embryos are babies and IVF clinics face an uncertain future, let’s not forget. Mike Pence wrote in his book that he and his wife Karen conceived three children by IVF. Where is that “pro-life” coward now?

Just in case you still mistook Nikki Haley’s moderate manner for being a moderate. “Nikki Haley sides with Alabama Supreme Court on IVF ruling: ‘Embryos, to me, are babies'” She’s basically a better looking Trump in a skirt.

As the NBA All-Star game continues to be panned after the fact, am not the only one who thought Steph Curry vs Sabrina Ionescu three-point shooting match was the best part of the weekend.

So if Caitlin Clark goes pro, why not some more of those WNBA-NBA star shooting matchups?

NBA All-Star game is non-contact anyway, basically. More pre-game skills competition would be fun. And #RATINGS

–

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers, asked about the team’s lack of offseason spending told reporters Tuesday he thought ownership needed to make an adjustment “to help us players to be in a better position to win.”

Sounds like Devers is disappointed about the season already. Does this make him an honorary member of the Mets?

–

Biden defenders interviewed lately:

Mitch Landrieu: “saying Joe’s not up to job is bucket of B.S. so deep your boots will get stuck under”

Amy Klobuchar: “chaos vs someone that actually has proof points.”

Kathy Hochul: “No one agrees with everyone on everything, Been married 40 years and don’t agree my husband 100%

All good sound bites. But the media loves chaos.

–

Got mail today from Speaker Mike Johnson “Can I ask for your help today?  Your file indicates you’re longtime supporter of Pres. Trump & our movement, which makes you PERFECT candidate to fill out Trump Agenda Audit.”

Sounds like Mike runs his email lists as well as he runs GOP House

–

Nikki Haley gets a lot of attention for her speech today because many people thought she was going to drop out of the race. It’s all about drama. Maybe President Biden should promise to mix up one name at every speech or rally so media will pay attention in anticipation.

–

Republicans have been touting Alexander Smirnov as a reliable witness against the Bidens. And now Smirnov, the ex-FBI informant, told investigators he got Hunter Biden dirt from Russian intelligence officials. So how are GOP gonna spin this one?

–

Alabama Supreme Court rules frozen embryos are children . So one way to defray IVF costs: Couples should create a number frozen embryos, and take the IRS child deduction for ALL of them on their tax returns.

Let us not forget. Trump said “Russia, do whatever the hell you want.” And that same week Putin murdered Navalny.

So as NBA All-Star game get even more unwatchable, how much will it take NBA to offer WNBA say to get more what will really get ratings?

As in more competition between Steph Curry and Sabrina Ionescu. For starters. And how much to convince Caitlin clark not to return to Iowa for a five year…

–

A major wreck late in Monday’s Daytona 500 knocked out 18 cars, a good percentage of the remaining field,

Can’t be the only one who saw parallels to today’s House GOP.

–

Jimmy Carter continues to inspire us, a year after entering hospice. Almost as if God wanted one of the better human beings ever to be President, to be around as long as possible to remind us that 2024 GOP candidate might be one of the worst human beings ever to be President.

It’s been clear for a while that Donald Trump, “many fine people on both sides,” would excuse and even support Hitler were Adolf alive today. What’s depressing is how many of today’s GOP would now goosestep in line behind him.

–

Alabama Supreme Court rules frozen embryos Are ‘Children’ Okay then… young couples tight on cash. Create a lot of frozen embryos, take all the child tax deductions, and worry about dethawing them, or not, later.

–

As the world reels from death of Alexei Navalny, and Ukraine aid languishes while MAGA Mike has House on a two-week vacation, is it time to start referring to him as Mike Johnson (R- Moscow)?.

–

Finally, travel agent nonpolitical PSA.

Biden walking slowly,especially over uneven terrain and boarding planes or helicopters is SMART.

After COVID top reason people of all ages cancel trips recently in my experience is falls. Just had 35 yr old break ankle. And MANY clients in 40s,50s, 60s & 70s twist & sprain things- playing sports, hiking, dog walking etc.

Steph Curry and Sabrina Ionescu’s three point shooting contest was a lot of fun.

Can anyone name anything else at NBA All-Star weekend worth watching.

–

And from the NBA’s MEN’s three -point line Sabrina beats or ties any NBA male player not named Steph. Just saying.

–

Apparently Lebron James, not completely happy in with the Lakers, does still want to play with his son Bronny. But it would be tough for King James, if traded, to play with another established star. So maybe Lebron can get himself traded to San Antonio.. Wemby is too young still to challenge his authority, the Spurs should have high draft picks, and James can finish his career with GOAT coach Popovich.

–

While Greg Abbott and his MAGA followers slash funding for public education… the University of Texas will approve a contract extension for Longhorns football coach Steve Sarkisian that will nearly double his annual compensation to more than $10 million per season through 2030.

Texas, where the state bird is the football and the state tree is the goalpost.

–

Alexei Navalny gave his life to fight against Vladimir Putin’s tyranny. House GOP won’t even give up a day of their two-week vacation.

–

WTF? Nikki Haley. “Congress is failing because they’re making it sound like you have to choose between Ukraine & Israel or securing the border They’re lying to American people. That’s false premise. We can do both.” Who wants to tell her WHO scuttled bipartisan bill doing both?

–

OTOH “I don’t want to be on pages of history we’ll regret if we walk away. You’ll see alliance supporting Ukraine crumble. You’ll ultimately see China become emboldened. I am not going to be on that page of history.” Another liberal angry at House GOP?

Nope. NC GOP Senator Thom Tillis

So I guess it’s consistent that a guy who massively overstates the value of his properties would also massively overstate the value of his gaudy cheap looking gold sneakers.

So is Donald Trump selling golden sneakers to wear for golden showers? Or has anyone told him they’re gaudy enough the most likely buyers are drag queens.

–

Another Washington post nominee for Pulitzer Prize in “both sides” journalism.

This headline “White House medical unit under Trump & Obama flouted rules, improperly dispensed drugs, reports find.”

Except the doctor noted is Ronny Jackson, Donald’s buddy & now GOP Representative from Texas.

–

Tim Scott called Putin a murderous dictator & “we need strong leadership coming from America that actually pushes back against Russia & other dictators.” Then added that the one man for that job was Donald Trump. Time to give Tim Scott the “person, woman, man, camera, TV test”?

–

I could do a post a day by quoting Trump with the caption “Imagine if President Biden said this…”

Donald yesterday “Michigan, get out and vote on November 27th

(The Michigan primary is in February, not November)

This should get more coverage. “Both Japan & United Kingdom just said their economies weakened during last 3 months of 2023, 2nd straight quarter this happened – ie a recession.. But in US, economy motored ahead in last 3 months -6th straight quarter of growth.” #ThankYouBiden

–

On Meet the Press Sunday, Amy Klobuchar strongly defended President Biden while Kristen Welker kept badgering her with nonstop questions about alleged polls and attacks on Joe’s age.

Senator Klobuchar is a baseball fan, so she knows Bryce Harper. And while she’s too professional to have quoted him this am, would not have faulted Amy Klobuchar at all had she responded to Kristen Welker at some point “That’s a clown question, bro.”

What’s left of the Pac-12 and commissioner George Kliavkoff have “mutually agreed to part ways” the league announced Friday.

In less than 3 years with Kliavkoff as commissioner, USC, UCLA, Washington and Oregon joined the Big 10, Cal and Stanford joined the ACC; and Utah, Colorado, Arizona and Arizona State joined the Big 12.

For all of us who have ever thought we were bad at OUR jobs.

–

On a lighter note: ESPN reports Raiders QB Jimmy Garoppolo will be suspended for first 2 games of 2024 NFL regular season for violating league’s policy on performance-enhancing substances. If we needed more proof that PEDs often don’t work.

–

Joe Manchin has announced he is not running for President. Am not fan of Senator Manchin, but as I’ve said modestly defending him in past, he’s red state Dem who often votes right way in the Senate & he could be much worse. Lately, as with Dean Phillips, we’ve seen much worse.

–

Not completely a shock but so sad and outrageous to see that Putin finally murdered Navalny. So who on Trump’s staff convinced him not to crow about it on Truth Social.

Meanwhile over on Pravda aka Fox News “Biden blasts House for 2-week ‘vacation’ despite facing criticism for his frequent beach trips.” President Biden travels to his beach home regularly where he is constantly available & works much of time. GOP House cut & ran.

–

Was Navalny’s murder on the morning of Judge Engoron’s expected ruling a reminder to Putin’s puppet that Vladimir owns him.

–

So how long will it take for Trump to grift $354 million from his followers?

Judge’s ruling against Donald Trump said Ivanka Trump had “inconsistent recall” in her testimony. So does that mean Ivanka is a prematurely elderly woman with a poor memory?

–

Stephen Colbert ranting on media covering the Presidential Election like a horse race. “Except in this horse race one of the horses is old. The other horse is old, has hoof and mouth disease and keeps quoting horse Hitler.”

—

On serious note, if you want to honor Alexei Navalny guessing he and his family would prefer a donation to your favorite Democratic member of US Congress running for re-election. (or running in a close swing district against a Republican opponent. Because watching GOP in action lately seems like best hope for democracy is to keep the Senate and retake the House.

The shot to break the record. From the logo

How good is Caitlin Clark? Sportscenter tonight put her breaking the NCAA women’s scoring record before the story of Tiger Woods returning to the golf course.

–

And you weren’t already a Caitlin Clark fan, after she broke the record, Iowa was up 12 at halftime,, and when interviewed at by a sideline reporter one of her first comments was “We need to play better defense.”

–

Caitlin Clark is a trailblazer again. All the records she has broken in women’s basketball & the scoring record she will break tonight. And now she’s playing in one of first women’s sporting events where many Americans were furious that it’s only on a streaming service. #Peacock

–

Not getting enough attention: Special counsel David Weiss has investigated & indicted Hunter Biden. Not only has Weiss now charged Alexander Smirnov, former FBI informant, with lying about Biden family business deals, but also he was TRUMP appointee for Delaware US attorney.

–

Pretty rich that lawyers for man facing 91 felony indictments including criminal trial for paying hush money to a woman he had sex with AND who cheated on all three of his wives, are trying to make a prosecutor’s love life a reason to dismiss charges

–

Would every right-wing pundit along with every Republican member of Congress now wringing their hands over Fani Willis’s relationship like to testify under oath about their personal sex life?

–

As a travel agent hearing Fani Willis saying she didn’t know details, including how Nathan Wade paid for cruise with his cruise travel agent, for starters, makes complete sense.

Have clients who can’t remember what card THEY gave me to keep on file, Ditto what ship or cruise line they themselves took And guessing almost all travel agents have similar stories.

–

“Mass shooting that left 1 person dead & 22 injured at Chiefs’ Super Bowl celebration appeared to have stemmed from a dispute among several people.”

Again, a dispute plus guns equals dead people. Why is this so hard to understand? It’s the guns, stupid.

–

GOP Rep. Matt Rosendale is dropping his Montana Senate bid less than a week after he officially launched it. So congrats to everyone who bet on the head of lettuce.

–

Uh oh – GOP Senator Mike Lee angry fundraising email:

“Liz Cheney: Used MILLIONS in taxpayer money to attack President Trump Concealed truth about J6 by refusing to release tapes Needs to be investigated ASAP.”

If you didn’t know already Liz is right here & Lee is scared.

–

Again: Marge Three Names is from a R+22 district in Georgia. My cat could get elected in that district with an R by her name. Want to stop Greene? Don’t waste money on her opponent. Donate to swing districts where Democrats can win and put her back in the House minority.

–

Mike Johnson didn’t just adjourn House until Feb 28 without border security and/or foreign aid bill. He also knows govt shutdown could come as early as March 1.

MAGA Mike did have time to schedule votes to impeach Mayorkas. Twice.

If most of us refused to do our job, then went on vacation before a deadline, we’d be fired..

The most American celebration, a Super Bowl parade, and the most American tragedy.

It’s the guns, stupid.

–

KC Police Chief Stacey Graves: “This is not Kansas City.” Sorry, with the easy availability of guns, this IS Kansas City. And potentially anywhere else in the USA. Especially in states like Missouri with loose gun laws.

–

Now up to 22 gunshot victims in Kansas City. Eight life-threatening. The fire chief said “they weren’t ready but they were prepared.”

Sadly in a country where we give guns more rights than women, we HAVE to be prepared.

–

A regular season women’s basketball game. “Tickets as low as $234”

The Caitlin Clark effect is real. As is the record she will break.

Let’s hope it translates into higher salaries for the WNBA.

–

SF 49ers fired their D-coordinator Steve Wilks after one season. This year the 49ers held Mahomes & Chiefs to 19 points in regulation. In 2020, KC scored 31 points against SF In 2023, KC scored 38 points against Philadelphia. Just saying.

–

Former UK PM David Cameron has warned US Congress not to repeat mistakes of 1930s by blocking a multi-billion package for Ukraine & “show the weakness displayed against Hitler.” Marge Three Names responded “kiss my a–”. I miss the days when ugly Americans were just tourists.

–

So have GOP blamed mental illness for today’s mass shooting yet – while simultaneously trying to cut mental health and other funding?

–

Karen Carpenter was trending tonight on Twitter.

So can I ask again, why aren’t the Carpenters, who were so influential with so many top hits that have stood the test of time, in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame yet? There are plenty of pop acts in the hall!.

–

Speaker Mike Johnson on the reported National Security Threat from Russia.

“We want to assure people that steady hands are at the wheel and we’re working on it.”

“”Steady hands?”  If true, does MAGA Mike mean the White House is making sure the House GOP is nowhere near the response?

–

This aged well – fundaising email from Tuesday:

“My name is Mazi Pilip & I’m GOP nominee in NY-03 Special Election.  We now hold a slim majority in House of just 2 seats- losing this race would be greatest gift to Joe Biden since launch of CNN & MSNBC.” Thank you NY-03 voters.

Not for some of us “Happy Valentine’s Day.”

But “PItchers and Catchers Report.”
–

Hate to see that it’s only televised on Peacock.

Because the more people who sign up, the more streaming will look like a good future alternative.

But Michigan at Iowa. Women’s basketball Thursday night: T

Wow. Tickets as low as $285 (!) #CaitlinClark

Hoping fans show up to watch Caitlin as a WNBA rookie too.

—

Jenny Cavnarhas just named play-by-play announcer for the Oakland Athletics -the first woman to hold such a role for a Major League Baseball team.

This is good news, especially for the Athletics, who are not often referred to as a Major League Baseball team.

—

Get more random online ads than most, especially as I read about sports and google for random information. But you know MLB has a marketing problem when you regularly get offers for bobblehead giveway games and you go “who?”

–

Some GOP Senators did all night marathon delaying Foreign Aid bill & complaining about border.

Bill finally was passed about 6a Tuesday. If only they’d made effort when REPUBLICAN Senator Lankford along w/ Sinema & Murphy & staffs invited comments while working night & weekends and holidays to write actual border-foreign aid bill.

–

A message from congressman-elect Tom Suozzi to Congress: “Stop running around for Donald Trump and start running the country.”

–

This was supposed to be close. Even Starry the cat can see #NY03 isn’t. Hey national media – Democrats, especially women, are fired up. And we’re voting.

But in Tennessee, Dem. Gloria Johnson, who GOP tried to expel from state House, is seeking another term while also running for U.S. Senate.

GOP is trying to force her to only run for one.

Meanwhile in Florida, GOP changed rules to allow DeSantis to run both for re-election & for President. #hypocrites

–

CNN talks about how GOP especially thinks we should prioritize deporting undocumented immigrants.

Wonder if those pollsters mentioned how many service workers- in hospitality, agriculture, construction, landscaping, child-care, housekeeping, restaurants, ARE currently undocumented workers…

=

Conservative Congressman Ken Buck – who voted “no” on impeaching Mayorkas. “You don’t have all that many serious people in this place who really want to work on policy and get serious problems solved.” Understatement of the year.

–

MAGA Republicans are attacking their own GOP Senators today for standing against Vladimir Putin. What’s next, a posthumous effort to impeach Ronald Reagan because he didn’t tell Gorbachev to build up that wall?

(and maybe put snipers on it?)

Flu in..

For all people complain about sports fans calling in sick Monday after the game with “Super Bowl Flu,” do you really want hungover sports fans building important things or doing work that might seriously affect your life?

–

Since people know I’m in SF Bay Area getting condolences on the 49ers. But, nah, I’m a Saints fan so didn’t really care.

This OTOH, is interesting. Klint Kubia, SF’s passing-game coordinator, has agreed to become offensive coordinator for New Orleans. No excuses now, Derek Carr.

–

Mitt Romney and I disagree on most things. But he is on fire tonight. “If we fail to help Ukraine we will be known not as the “Greatest Generation” but the “Worst Generation. If your position is being cheered by Vladimir Putin, it’s time to reconsider your position”

–

Its like explaining rules to a child who wants it all:

Sorry GOP you don’t get to vote not even to debate the bipartisan border bill crafted largely by REPUBLICAN Senator Lankford and then whine that foreign aid bill doesn’t have anything in it about securing the border.

–

Kansas Senator Roger Marshall talking about “peace talks” in Ukraine. Uh, how do you have peace talks with a dictator who has invaded another country and has talked of invading more? What part of Kansas would he give up if his state was invaded?

–

House GOP issued a statement “A man too incapable of being held accountable for mishandling classified information is certainly unfit for the Oval Office.” Who wants to tell them?

–

As Trump pushes daughter-in-law Lara for RNC chair, some details on her background if you didn’t know: Before getting involved in Donald’s campaign, she worked as news producer, before that as personal trainer, & owned a cake business for a year. Clearly very qualified. #sarcasm

–

The same GOP that idolizes a man who said “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall,” now genuflects before a man who encourages Putin to attack Europe. It’s. A. Cult.

–

Adam Schiff tonight in California Senate debate ”

One of many reasons I support Adam Schiff. The man can get to the point. “Some people are unfit for office at any age. And I put Donald Trump in that category.”

Super Bowl LIX is Sunday, February 9, 2025 in New Orleans.

What time this monday does the pre-game show start?

–

So how long before House GOP at Donald Trump’s urging. decide to launch a Congressional investigation into how Biden helped rig the Super Bowl for Taylor Swift’s boyfriend?

–

And now the real important question of the night. Did the Super Bowl go so long that Taylor Swift might be late for her next concert?

–

While it was great to see vaccinated Travis Kelce win a Super Bowl while unvaccinated Aaron Rodgers didn’t get past the first game of the season, how much is the cost of that Pfizer Super Bowl commercial going to raise US pharmaceutical prices?

–

A Robert Kennedy Super Bowl commercial?! What, did RFK Jr get tired of Dean Phillips getting all the less-than-mediocre white man attention?

Though seriously, as a political kid who was an RFK fan in 3rd grade, the more I think about it, the more his son’s commercial ripping off JFK’s ad makes me.

–

Since we could bet on everything at this Super Bowl anyone know what was the over-under on number of Trump supporters who would turn off the game during the black National Anthem?

–

Well Caitlin Clark had an “off-day” with only 31 points, 10 assists and 8 rebounds and Nebraska had an amazing 4th quarter comeback to upset Iowa. So Clark is 8 points short of the all time record. But wonder what ticket prices will be for Michigan-Iowa women’s basketball game Thursday night.

–

Non political question of the night: Does the average American consume more calories on Thanksgiving or Super Bowl Sunday?

–

In the political good news department, this should be a bigger headline. -GOP senators defy Trump by advancing foreign aid bill

18 GOP Senators are less in thrall to Velveeta Voldemort than the US media seems to be.

Josh Hawley, who is not a fan of Mitch McConnell: “Who has more influence? Probably Trump. I mean, he’s the future.” Whatever people think about Donald, even those planning to vote for him in Nov., hard to imagine an out-of-shape overweight 77-yr old man as the “future.”

–

Elderly man with poor memory attacks Nikki Haley over her husband not campaigning with her: “Where’s her husband? Oh, he’s away. … What happened to her husband? Where is he? He’s gone.”

Michael Haley is with National Guard & deployed in Africa. But guess Trump forgot.

–

Tommy Tuberville not only handicapped our military with his months-long stunt, he’s now actually tweeting defending Putin. Alabama, you could have kept Doug Jones. Heck, Alabama, you could have kept Jeff Sessions… (who actually looks good now by comparison.

–

Trump threatens to ‘encourage’ attack of NATO members behind on “payments.”

“Nice little NATO alliance you have here, would be a shame if something happened to it.” Why isn’t this a bigger story?

I support President Biden. But if he had decided not to run in 2024, and appointed VP Harris as his successor. does anyone think we wouldn’t be hearing nonstop negative stories on her? Or ANY other person Joe endorsed? Media misses Trump. It’s that simple.
