I hope that applies even for people living in the colonies that stayed loyal.

I go back to, how is anyone better off when we spend billions on ICE to chase cabbage pickers through the fields? Who benefits from that?

This is where I lose @GalagaGuy. I honestly have no idea whether Kilmar Abrego Garcia is the most perfect human being on the planet. But I can tell you right now that I do not support this government going and snatching people up and shipping them to foreign countries with no due process. Regardlelss of whether they are great human beings or not. I don't have to apporve of everything about Kilmar Abrego Garcia 100% sympathetic for me to believe that is anti-American and wrong.

I believe in humanity and have empathy, so even if he’s committed the things that he’s been accused of the cruel punishment doesn’t fit the crime. To not give a crap what happens to him is wrong.

Trading Clark for Miller would be asinine.

I’ve always said Donald Trump is the Bernie Madoff of Presidents.

I don't want to see anyone suffer and my bleeding heart will go out to MAGA if they suffer whether they played a role in their own suffering or not. Being angry at someone for making poor decisions is not the same as wanting to see them suffer.

I think it's OK to deport undocumented immigrants as well as long it's done humanely. Nobody should be treated like an animal just because they lost the birth lottery. I also think it's counterproductive to deport immigrants if they are productive, civilized human beings contributing to society. I am not talking about anyone in particular here, just generalizing.

At least you’re surrounded by water. I’m in the desert.

By the way, every game, including this one - unless it’s one of the Apple TV Friday games - is an mlb.tv free game of the day.

Sweeney and Liranzo for Bednar. That was the cost for the Dodgers for 2 months for Jack. Both have elevated their profiles since, so can you get 2 months + 1 year of Bednar for that same duo?

And for our trade capital, I think Max Anderson and Josue Briceno are the most attractive prospects we could move without feeling the loss. Add in Hamm or another pitcher (I’d like to hold on to Melton cause I suspect we’ll need him this season) and you could command a good player

Donald Trump is the Kenneth Copeland of presidents. He's what happens when prosperity gospel gets elected into government.

We want a pitcher...not a belly itcher. I want to keep Clark and McGonigle...after that..let's talk

the problem is human nature. The government has been pumping extra dollars into rural and western America on a pretty continual basis since the depression, the problem is the people there don't want help, they want their old lives back, and that's something Uncle Sam can't give them. You may make America 'great again' but you will still never make it the America it once was, because there is no going back. The wold changes and it can't be unchanged. That doesn't mean you can make it better, but it will be different, and there are too many folks to whom that is still the problem.

I won't, I can tell you that right now. And I believe whoever comes after Trump has a moral obligation to attempt to fix the crisis that he's creating here.

The tax rate change is the least offensive part of this bill and cutting taxes does not correlate to deficit in a vacuum. Had to look up the numbers to refresh my memory after seeing in your link that the Bush tax cuts increased debt by 5.6 trillion by 2018, but the Bush tax cuts were part of his campaign that he saw through, despite 9/11 which increased our military spending of 5.8 trillion which is what we spent on Iraq/Afghanistan. Granted that didn't end until 2021, but i'm guessing most of that money was spent between 2001-2018, likely making it a wash. Should Bush have moved forward with another tax cut in 2003, probably not, but if not for those wars, sounds like Bush's legacy would have included that he may have had a small deficit or surplus and essentially plateau our debt. GDP expanded under bush by roughly 4 trillion a year, so as a percent of debt Bush would have dropped that from 54.5% to 39.9% if 9/11 never happens. This definitely is going to be cruel, but not just to the poor either. Rural middle class and wealthy, aka Trump voters, will realize that good medical insurance doesn't matter if you don't have a hospital near you. Right now my biggest concern might be related to AI. I do think whoever leads in AI, especially early on, will have better outcome on whatever an AI driven world looks like. We started in the pole position with the largest economy, with the best higher education, and the best minds (from all over the world) that want to learn here. The federal law enforcement money gives a clear indication that even if you want to come here to learn, you're not really welcome. We may still allow student visas, but we're not welcoming. AI is going to require energy. A lot of it. Add in despite what Trump is doing, electric vehicles are the future, it might slow down, but they are the future still. So we really need to increase our energy and this bill does so much to **** on renewables, not just promote them anymore, but to actively discourage them. This is what is going to hurt the next generation, the only question is how much.

This kind of thing was inevitable. He's not a big enough star to protect, so they might nail him if they find anything.

For what it's worth, and @Tiger337 knows this because of some of the arguments we have had, it pains me to ask this question. I am an institutionalist at heart, but man, I have a lost a lot of faith in this country since that ruling (just barely one year ago). In a lot of ways, it doesn't feel like the same country anymore.

Also other people here argue trump won because of rashida so it would be awesome if all of you folks that feel the need to blame others for Republicans voting for a Republican president could get into a room that doesnt contain occams razor obviously and get on the same incorrect page that would be helpful

Guess who else lost a series to the Nationals......... The Dodgers

It's pretty obvious what we should be looking for at the trade deadline.

The fact that we are still in this game despite how awful we’ve played is wild

I would support sending proven violent criminals to prisons that are not torture prisons.

No worries, a regimen of ivermectin will get those red hats back on their hooves in no time.

I wonder how many of them were abused and the cycle of cruelty continues with each new generation.

Well, it started out good. Pitching and defense seems to have failed us today. Bring back Montero and our #5 SP.

Do you even understand how the courts and law works? Nobody is sentenced from the videos on the news. Ever...for ANY reason. Every human being, here legally or not, is entitled to their day in court. Unless you don't believe in the constitution of these United States?

I remember when TSN started to suck a few decades ago and I decided to stop my long-time subsciption. They kept sending mail to me and offering discounts begging me to come back. I finally wrote to them telling them to stop sending mail. I said that I used to look forward to their publication each week and it was a big part of my life. I told them that they needed to go back to the way they used to be and stop trying to imitate the USA Today. To their credit, the mails stopped after that.

Correct! He inherited a strong economy.

I'll agree I don't love the logo and font on the front of the jerseys, but I do love the logo on the hats.

Same here, but it’s not worth it. My parents are worried about my disabled sister losing her Medicare.
