One of the all-time calls. But hey, how often do you get to call a catcher hitting a walkoff inside the park home run

Last one was in 1926…

–

Apparently a Marco Rubio impostor is using AI voice to call high-level government officials. How did they know it was fake?

The imposter didn’t praise Trump every sixty seconds?

–

SCOTUS today overrode lower court orders freezing Trump’s massive federal workforce layoff plans.

If you think Donald’s approval rating is low NOW, wait until he lays off hundreds of thousands. Will affect not just them but businesses where they spend $$ & services they provide.

–

Actually today while workng watched most of Trump cabinet meeting ias background noise

Challenge ANYONE to watch Donald in action at these meetings & tell me he’s in his right mind.

Even Fox cut away as he ends by bragging about his White House decorating, finding trophies etc, “Sometimes I like frames better than the pictures.”

–

How many times in a year do we need to have “one in a lifetime” weather events before some people acknowledge that climate change is real?

–

Wonder if we could offer Donald Trump a Nobel Peace Prize in exchange for resigning?

–

Does Donald have some sort of a dart board in the basement where he throws darts to figure out his next tariff move?

–

Hurricane season has barely gotten started. So will Trump claim DOGE cuts at NOAA and NWS etc, aren’t going to affect anything that goes wrong when those storms hit too?

–

Keep seeing Twitter attacks on immigrants who have been in US decades & have some minor infraction on their record as teenagers

Wondering how many of these trolls have ever say, drank underage, hunted/fished without a license, paid or received cash they didn’t report, etc?

–

Brooke Rollins claims that “34 million able-bodied Americans on Medicaid will be able to replace agricultural workers… 22 million people on Medicaid are 50 and over. We’re gonna put Grandma to work picking fruit? Got it.

With everything going on in the Mideast right now might be accurate but perhaps not quite as funny to say “The Colorado Rockies have won three in a row. Let’s hope this isn’t a sign of the apocalypse.”

–

Whole SF Giants team showed up to watch Rafael Devers’ introductory press conference. Alas felt too much like the hitters then just showed up to watch him bat during the game. 1 for 13 with RISP.

–

Small nice thing. The WNBA is regularly now featured in the headlines and on Sportscenter.

–

From my Twitter friend Sarah Ironside ” Good thing for Jim Jordan that trump is setting the world on fire. Maybe now no one will notice that the documentary about him covering up sexual abuse at Ohio State just came out on HBO Max.”

–

Media paid little attention to Donald Trump’s comment at G7

“The UK is very well protected. You know why? Because I like them, That’s the ultimate protection.”

Heather Cox Richardson “Commenters often note Trump talks like mob boss, but rarely has his organized-crime style of governance been clearer…

–

With everything going on in the word, Donald posted tonight to brag that he is putting two huge flag poles on the White House lawn.

Ther question, what flags will he raise? US flags? Russian flags? Trump flags?

–

Senator John Cornyn claims it is urgent the Senate have hearings into former President Biden’s mental acuity….

At same time our current President is rage tweeting in middle of the night, name-calling other elected officials and contradicting himself on a daily basis…

–

As former Senator Bob Menendez reports to prison after being convicted on bribery charges, too soon to start the pool on when Donald will pardon him in exchange for becoming a Republican?

–

Not getting enough coverage why Mike Lee finally deleted tweets about MN assassinations He told a reporter that talking to Amy Klobuchar made difference “It was important to her I take it down. “We’re good friends. I took it down.” Reaching across aisle still matters.

(And yes, it’s sad he cared more about losing Klobuchar as a friend then the fact that two people were murdered – plus their dog – and two more were injured)

Bummer that Caitlin Clark has a quad injury and will be out at least two weeks.

But again cool that this is one of ESPN’s top 5 headlines “Fever fall to Mystics in first game without Caitlin Clark.

Wasn’t that long ago that many might have seen Fever and Mystics and figured it had something to do with COVID or some other disease and odd cure ideas.

–

Need a reason to root for OKC in the NBA finals? Their superstar, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, SGA, is Canadian.

–

Since the foreign students in USA, at Harvard and elsewhere, all have visas, the government already knows their names. And a lot more personal details. This is all performative.

–

Trump: “Harvard wants to fight. They want to show how smart they are. And they’re getting their ass kicked.”

What does he think this is? A schoolyard fight between 12 year old boys at his fancy prep school?

–

How long until David Hogg publicly says he’s become a Republican?

–

How do you KNOW when a reporter at a Trump press conference nails something? When Velveeta Voldemort’s response is “that’s a nasty question.”

–

Lost in the coverage of Donald’s outrage over TACO label is coveage of the fact he said he won young people by 37%.

Trump did NOT win young people by 37% He didn’t even win “young people.” While admittedly by less of a margin than Joe Biden, Kamala Harris did.

Dementia dementia dementia… Where’s the book – Orange Sin?

–

If someone like Marco Rubio were in charge when his grandfather came to the United States, Marco himself would never have been born with a chance for US citizenship.

Hey fellow Democrats. Maybe if we want to protest Trump events we should put a “Trump Always Chickens Out” Taco Truck at every rally corner.

–

So which restaurant will first offer the “Trump chicken TACO?” “Like nothing you’ve ever seen before, orange, fatty, supposed to be hot but slathered in Russian dressing.” And a lot more expensive than advertised.
