So close

Mike Krukow has retired and wouldn’t have called Brewers-Dodgers playoff game anyway.

But SF Giants cans had to be able to hear him in their heads tonight #Laugher

–

(2-1 Milwaukee win, and it might have been closer than the score sounded)

Thought the New Orleans Saints played some of the sloppiest football I’ve seen in a long time
Seattle Seahawks offense today in the first half “Hold our beer.”

–

But then, let’s see, Washington Commanders in field goal range at the 26 yard line to win a game vs the NY Giants in OT with 55 seconds to go…

Ran THREE plays, never spiked the ball, and ran out of time…

Hillary Clinton, Oct 19, 2016

Russian President Vladimir Putin “would rather have a puppet as president of the United States”.

Was Hillary a perfect candidate. No. But she was usually right – Especially about EVERYTHING involving Trump

–

Wrap your head around this headline:

“Trump says Ukraine should get a new president as he blames Zelenskyy for US diesel prices.”

This would never happen if Republican Senators were alive.

–

We should all know now the videos of the US military strikes murdering random fishermen were just warmups for a scheduled livestreamed firing squad execution.

What’s next?

=

It deserves more attention but Trump never walks on his own now in public. Someone always walks as his minder/guide. Take a look at any time you see him walk to or from Marine One or Air Force One.

–

Malignant narcissists cannot stand other people’s joy.


The worst malignant narcissists cannot imagine happy people in a world existing after they are gone.


So why is it so hard for some to understand why Trump now, very aware of his own mortality, does things hat appear designed to destroy the United States?

–

As GOP spreads lies about James Talarico’s being off the campaign trail with the flu, your reminder, Tom Kean was gone for FOUR MONTHS without a word to his constituents until he returned.

–

So if James Talarico had decided to drag himself out of bed with the flu and appeared in public, with a cough and fever, GOP would have attacked him nonstop either for looking bad or spreading germs or both.

How much trouble is Kimberly in for soliticiting bribes?

Except that Guilfoyle was engaged to Don Jr for years.

She bragged about raising money for January 6 and appeared at the rally. So Guilfoyle probably knows a lot…

Kimberly might want to stay away from windows.

Markwayne Mullin today on Face the Nation
“I think people need to understand, if you attack America, we will come after you and we will make sure that the punishment fits the crime.”

Unless you attack the US Capitol on behalf of Donald Trump.

This you, Markwayne?

Not up in the air

February 2, 2026

Hard to feel sorry for pro athletes making big money.


But San Antonio Spurs had yesterday’s 2p game in Charlotte moved up 11a in hopes of beating the bomb cyclone. Didn’t work. Team still sat on plane for 2 hrs before it was cancelled.

So they rescheduled for this morning, had the flight to San Antonio diverted to Atlanta for a mechanical issue. Finally made it back about 4p, (And had their game start time vs Orlando delayed twice, from 3p to 6p to 8pm.)

Even chartered planes are no match for Mother Nature

–

So is there ANYTHING Donald won’t destroy or tear down to feed his monstrous ego? We’ve elected a Trumpzilla. #KennedyCenter

–

So since Bad Bunny won the top award tonight, how long until Donald Trump tries to shut the Grammys down?

–

So MAGA, admittedly I didn’t hear all his speeches but I missed Trump’s promise “vote for me and I’ll shut down the Kennedy Center for two years…”

–

“Melania” received an 11% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes despite scoring 99% with the site’s “verified audience.”

They’re saying the people who actually saw the documentary liked it?

Both of them?

–


So how long do theaters who have agreed to show the Melania movie have to keep it on screen before they pull it?

–

Would love to see the number of Americans who streamed or watched Catherine O’Hara movies and shows this weekend compared to those seeing the Melania movie.

–

Getting all kinds of ads and offers to resubscribe to the Washington Post. At the same time the paper is reportedly gutting its staff. Hard pass.

Haven’t given up on the NY Times yet, but even in California, besides our local SF Chronicle, my newspaper money is much better spent on the Minnesota Star Tribune.

–

On SNL Cold Open last night on ICE Tom Homan asks “What have you learned? An ICE agent responds Maybe I’ve got this wrong but ..you hired a bunch of angry aggressive guys, gave us guns and didn’t train us so maybe this is what you wanted to happen?”

–

Florida Surgeon General on ending vaccine requirements for kids in school

“Who am I to tell you what to put in your body?”

So Joseph Ladapo is endorsing women’s right to take the abortion pill. Got it. #Smallmercies

Gentlemen, lift your umbrellas.

MLB’s Bristol Motor Speedway Classic sounded like great made-for-TV event.

Game to be played on the infield & 85,000 tickets sold. And ESPN reported the results of the rain-delayed game. A 4-2 Braves win over the Reds.

Not saying that the rain delay was.. overnight. So yes, a fun game. But also as reminder of why MLB doesn’t have team in Tennessee or North Carolina. (at least w/ outdoor stadium)

–

The Rockies put closer Seth Halvorsen on the 15th day IL with elbow strain.

Sad but a bit surprising. The 30-80 Rockies HAD a closer?

–

22 runs for SF Giants against NY Mets iin three games as they win the weekend series 2-1.

And out in the Mets bullpen are some New York relievers saying to new teammate Tyler Rogers…”Uh, didn’t the SF Giants trade you here because they couldn’t hit?

–

Donald Trump says he will name a new Labor Statistics official in “days” after he fired the last one. Translation, once Velveeta Voldemort has figured out who of his potential candidates will donate – and lie- the most.

–


NY Times’ Peter Baker “Trump’s war on facts has reached a new level and the message is clear: Government officials who deal in data now fear they have to toe the line and adopt his version of reality no matter how false or risk losing their job.”

If only Baker worked for a newspaper who had the power to expose Velveeta Voldemort’s insanity instead of sanewashing him.

–

And yes, actual NY Times headline this weekend

“Trump’s Efforts to Control Information Echo an Authoritarian Playbook.” Says the newspaper that regularly bends the knee to sanewash Donald for access.

–

And one more

Really NY Times? This headline “Lashing Out Over Russia and Jobs Data, Trump Displays His Volatile Side.” “Volatile SIDE?” When it comes to volatility, Trump is a mobius strip.

–

“They’ve wanted a ballroom at the White House for more than 150 years.” Can anyone seriously give me an example of who “they” are? Other than the voices in Velveeta Voldemort’s head?

–

How long until ALL reports dealing with the economy will be delivered by Karoline Leavitt and written in Sharpie?

–

Senator Alex Padilla is correct: “If Republicans were confident on their policy agenda, they’d be eager to defend it with the people and to defend at the ballot box next November.

You don’t need to gerrymander when voters actually like what you are doing.

–

Pretty clear Donald wants to turn the White House into a tacky American version of Versailles. Does anyone think Velveeta Voldemort knows what happened to the last King to live at Versailles?

–

Fox News is all about fear

And they’re headlne is still headlining a drunken brawl in Cincinnati where nobody died.

Meanwhile, crickets on 4 murdered in Montana. Police looking for 45-year-old Michael Paul Brown, a US army veteran. Yes, the suspect is white.
