The Los Angeles Dodgers now have 15 pitchers on the IL

So what is Los Angeles going to do at the trade deadline? Buy the Detroit Tigers?

–

Washington Nationals scored 10 runs in the first inning yesterday. Until today, the SF Giants had scored 10 runs in the last 7 games.

–

Meanwhile, the Colorado Rockies swept again and are the 3rd fastest to 50 losses in MLB history. The fastest in the modern era since 1900.

27 games behind the Dodgers on June 1. Will the Rockies be the first team mathematically eliminated from winning their division befoe the All-Star Break?

So were people like Joni Ernst always this awful or has serving Trump destroyed their souls?

–

Kash Patel and Pete Hegseth are actually using polygraph tests in efforts to find leakers in the FBI and DOD. Too bad we couldn’t have given them both lie detector tests during their confirmation hearings.

–

Again, wonder why right wing media viewers/readers seem to live in different world? Fox News not even covering insanity of Donald’s reposting conspiracy theory that Biden was executed. While Daily Mail “Trump shares astonishing theory about Joe Biden that is sure to upset Jill”

–

Can we get the reporter who asked Velveeta Voldemort about TACO on a Sunday show? Where she could have asked GOP politicians if they agree with Joni Ernst and what they think of Donald’s reposting an insane conspiracy theory.

–

Anyone asked Sarah Palin, who accused Democrats of “death panels” what she thinks of Joni Ernst’s “we’re all going to die?”

–

Elon Musk: “I’m a little stuck in a bind, where I’m like, well, I don’t wanna, you know, speak up against the administration, but I also don’t wanna take responsibility for everything this administration’s doing.”

He already destroyed government agencies and made the lives of everyone still working for the federal government miserable. While enriching himself and ending investigations into his companies. He’s responsible whether he likes it or not.

Well played Rep. Kenyatta. Positively Presidential.

His tweet today “HAPPY PRIDE TO ALL, INCLUDING THE SCUM THAT SPENT THE LAST 4 MONTHS RAISING PRICES & MAKING LIFE WORSE FOR THE FAMILIES OF OUR COUNTRY THROUGH WARPED RADICAL MAGA AGENDA. BUT FEAR NOT, DEMS WILL FLIP THE HOUSE & MAKE LIFE BETTER! AGAIN, HAPPY PRIDE MONTH, AND GOD BLESS AMERICA!

As the biggest payroll in baseball Los Angeles Dodgers appeared at the White House today while our stock market craters, would it be wrong as an SF Giants fan to hope #ETTD?

(And LA then did go out and lost to the the Nationals.)

–

Donold couldn’t resist swipping at California’s Senators when the Los Angeles Dodgers visited today.

Imagine if when the 2016 Super Bowl Champions Denver Broncos came to the White House President Obama had taken the time to insult and refuse to acknowledge by name Colorado GOP Senator Cory Gardner.

But that wouldn’t have happened. because Barack is not a petty little b*tch.

–

We are about 14 months away from the World Cup at this point. Leaving aside tourists wanting to go somewhere else, Why would any young man who isn’t blond hair and blue-eyed risk coming here?

At this point how many other countries would back Greenland or Canada in trying to annex the United States?

–

Anyone remember Trump during the campaign talking about an economic revolution and the pain we’d all have to go through for his vision?

Me neither.

–

Even as a political junkie I somehow missed the 2024 Trump campaign slogan “Sometimes you have to take medicine to fix something.”

–

In 17th & 18th century England, wreckers took valuables from ships that ran aground in Devon & Cornwall. Some claimed that wreckers actually decoyed ships with lights to crash into the coast.

Those stories may be myths, but what Trump & his buddies are doing to wreck the US economy IS deliberate.

–

A garment worker in Vietnam makes $200-300 a month.

Someone who makes shoes in China makes $400-600 a month

People who put together iPhones in China make about $3.00 a hour.

But yeah, tell me how we’re going to move manufacturing to the US.

–

On Twitter, Maga trolls and bots posting near identical posts accusing Democrats of being pro slave labor in response to anyone pointing out how much less manufacturing salaries are overseas.

Yet in the US, Republicans want not to raise the minimum wage and make child labor legal.

–

Amy Coney Barrett is an anti-choice conservative SCOTUS justice

But she is not apparently a monster.

So MAGA is big mad at her.

Seems sadly on brand.

–

Why isn’t media hammering this point?

Could Trump demand El Salvador return innocent man? Perhaps not.

Could he ask? Yes. And why wouldn’t President of El Salvador do a favor for his good friend?

Donold wants to make all deportations, even of innocent people, irrevocable.

–

GOP Rep. Darrell Issa, who got rich by bringing us car alarms, now has No Rogue Rulings Act (NORRA) act which would limit district court judges’ ability to issue orders blocking Trump policies nationwide. Funny, GOP didn’t mind when district judges blocked Biden policies.

–

We’ve had recession and depressions. Can we start calling this a Trumpression?

–

The market has circuit breakers. It is a shame the USA doesn’t have circuit breakers that would trigger an election.

9-0 for the Los Angeles Dodgers over the NY Mets in game to some makes the NLCS feel like it’s over.

Remembering when a certain series felt like it was over after a 16-4 game.

Yep, game five, World Series. SF Giants vs the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim in 2002.

–

Meanwhile, David McCormick, who is running for US Senate in Pennsylvania while living in oonnecticut, went to an NFL tailgate ih Philadelphia. Then posted pictures talking about cheering on … the Steelers.

This is like going to a fundraiser Sunday in San Francisco and talking about how you were rooting tonight for the Dodgers.
.

Sure looking like it may have been not that the New Orleans Saints were that good. But that the Dallas Cowboys are that bad. #WhoDat

Trump scary quote getting attention about “people from within, we have some very bad people, sick people, radical left lunatics. And it should be easily handled by National Guard, or if really necessary, by the military,”

Buts even scarier. Who does he single out? “thing that’s tougher to handle are these lunatics that we have inside, like Adam Schiff.”

Whatever you think of Schiff, even most Republicans wouldn’t call him a “radical left lunatic.”

NY Times poll of Latino voters including immigrants found many don’t believe Trump is referring to people like them when he talks about immigrants. Got news for them; only immigrants safe under Trump’s proposed deportations are white men & beautiful women who will marry old men

–

Speaker Mike Johnson says that there was a peaceful transfer of power despite January 6.

Try telling a police officer that it was fine that you were driving drunk or driving 100 mph because you didn’t actually crash.

–

President Biden was in Florida today. A state probably as likely to vote for Harris as California is to vote for Trump. Joe announced additional $612 million to support communities unplaced by recent hurricanes. No insults, no threats. It’s so nice having a real President.
