Future tense.

Someday when women’s basketball and the WNBA have the respect they deserve, many of us will tell our grandchildren and great-grandchildren we were so lucky as sports fans to be able to watch both Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark.

Bo Bichette will now miss “multiple weeks” due to a calf strain. So maybe SF Giants fans dreams of trading for the former All-Star shortstop won’t matter even if team falls out of the playoff picture this week.

Much of media these days becomes understandable once you realize the national media is all in for Donald Trump

Even those who he would arrest – if not on day 1- then early in his Presidency. They just see dollar signs of ratings & not how dictators have behaved in history.

Federal health officials said Friday that 2 people in the U.S. – Midwest and East Coat – have died and 28 people have been hospitalized from a multi-state outbreak of listeria linked to sliced deli meats . Well, it’s only science. Eat deli meat, own the libs!

Molly Ivins 1998 “You Got to Dance with Them What Brung You.” Ivins in 2005 on bankuptcy bill: “TX Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee offered amendment to protect victims of natural disasters after Katrina -voted down by GOP Hope Molly & Sheila tonight in heaven are raising hell

#VoteBlue

When 20 yr-old shot at Trump & killed rally goer, Democrats condemned attack & offered sympathy. When 20 yr-old in 2017 drove into peaceful protesters at Neo-Nazi rally, injuring 8 & killing Heather Heyer, GOP was quiet while Trump talked about “many fine people on both sides.”

So while media is nonstop now questioning Biden’s health why isn’t single major outlet questioning Trump’s health? Especially after the shooting. How badly was he hurt, could there be brain damage, PTSD? We don’t even know if Donald was hit by a bullet or shrapnel.

I get that money matters in politics.

. But Michael Bloomberg spent about a billion dollars to try to become President in 2020 because he didn’t think Democrats had a strong enough field.

How’d that work out?

How many people even remember he ran?

Wish media had spent half as much time earlier this year covering all of President BIden’s accomplishments as they are now spending covering the idea he should drop out of the race.

Admit, I don’t like Adam Schiff publicly coming out against President Biden.

But any Democrat hinking of voting for Steve Garvey over Adam Schiff over that is not just cutting off their nose to spite their face, they are cutting off their whole face.

Shouldn’t talking repeatedly about “the late great Hannibal Lecter” be proof that someone is not capable of serving as President?

Marching towards madness…

Just saying, if you haven’t discovered women’s college basketball yet you are seriously missing something.

Iowa down eight points with 2:38 left in regulation, somehow pulled it off to tie the game and win in OT.

And then for those who like drama beyond the game –the LSU– South Carolina game ended soon after a bench-clearing brawl with six ejections.

Might be first year more casual fans asked to name a college basketball player would think of a woman before a man.

Pope Francis said “Ukraine must have the courage to raise the white flag and to negotiate.” So if Putin invaded Italy what part of the country would the Pope suggest be surrendered as part of the negotiation?

Or heck, what treasures would he give them from Vatican City?

So Chip Roy, a MAGA Republican is complaining “Katie Britt was thrown to the wolves with her SOTU response” as she was too inexperienced and “didn’t have time to fact check.” And exactly who forced her to give that speech?

And what exactly is in the water in Alabama…. Katie Britt still might not be the worst Senator from the State, since her competition is Tommy Tuberville.

Oppenheimer won most of the awards, including the Oscar for Film Editing. A three-hour movie? Because otherwise it would have been a four or five hour movie?!

Jimmy Kimmel, with the line of the night, responding in real time to Velveeta Voldemort’s angry rant on Truth Social about the Oscars – “Isn’t it past your jail time?”

Although earlier in the night Jimmy Kimmel might have already gotten MAGA’s to turn the show off with this line.

“In Poor Things, Emma Stone played an adult woman with the brain of a baby, like the woman from Alabama who gave the State of the Union rebuttal.”

Last night, Scarlett Johansson just did to Katie Britt what Tina Fey did to Sarah Palin. And I am so here for it.

Katie Britt now says she didn’t mean to imply 20 year old child trafficking incident happened under Biden’s watch, but said Joe’s policies that lead to horrific things like this. Well, shoot, why not blame President Biden for the Civil War, Great Depression & both World Wars too?

Hey progressives. No one is saying Biden is perfect. But Bernie Sanders appeared on Face the Nation to talk about his support of President Biden. If Joe is good enough for Bernie, shouldn’t he be good enough for you?

Katie Porter’s not happy she’s not in runoff in Calif. US Senate race.

But let’s be honest. Race between Schiff & Porter would’ve cost 1/2 billion to elect 1 of 2 Democrats- money that could make difference in close House or Senate races. Schiff vs Garvey is good for Democrats

Media shrugs off Trump’s embrace of Viktor Orbán. Have ANY of them paid attention to journalism now in Hungary? “Public broadcasting turned into propaganda organ, many private media outlets were taken over or silenced. Orbán party has seized control of 80% of country’s media

Nancy Mace, who is open about being a rape victim herself, was upset w/ George Stephanopoulos questioning her support for Trump – “Not going to sit here on your show & be asked question meant to shame me about another potential rape victim.”

Actually, Mace shames herself by supporting a rapist.
