I read these Presidential rants and constantly get flashbacks to a Jason Robarts, Martin Balsom movie of the 1960s "A Thousand Clowns". In the movie an unemployed TV writer (Roberts) occasionally berates his neighbors on the quality of their garbage.

I used to have it was doctors offices. The moment I walked into the exam room I'd get all clammy and light headed. When our son was born being in the delivery room was a new phenomenon. I had to wait until my wife was prepped, but the moment I walked in I nearly passed out. Now I see doctors often enough not much phases me. Not even the colostomy exam. (Prep is still a PIA). I consider it an opportunity for a quick nap

But if the President does it it's not breaking the law. The MAGA Court ruled on that last year

Aren't all MLB team websites controlled (at least formatted) by MLB? Withe the express written consent of whomever is in charge these days. I think it's the same with MiLB

At least they're not targeting Welfare Queens. But guys in mon's basement sounds a lot like their base

Total BS from Spineless Witless. He went along with the Repuglican Majority. A total Redhatter.

Thank you Amy..for now

As usual my Congress Critter (Rob Wittman, I call him Witless) lied to me again. He told constituents he wouldn't cut Medicaid. Pretty much what I expect from an insurance salesman

Another basic Civics lesson for MAGAs. this time Gym Jordon gets schooled. (Not that it matters)

I don't follow NoVa politics that closely yet. But I guess his cancer returned just a few weeks ago. I found this Axios story. Thought for his family https://www.axios.com/2025/04/28/gerry-connolly-house-oversight-committee-cancer?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=newsletter_axiospm&stream=top

More Executive Branch grifting. This Regime has a good chance of surpassing Harding's administration for the most grifters. If they already haven't done so

Of course no one asked him about all the J6ers who did the same thing. He pardoned them...

Let me see if I have this correct. I'm still eligible for a booster shot since I have ILD/Pulmonary Fibrosis. But it's potentially that my wife, who is my caregiver, possibly doesn't qualify? Edit. She'll qualify. My son, a potential secondary caregiver, does not.

This is the Dude who was among those that voted against FEMA funding in October, and will be voting to cut funding for the same folks who will see major reductions in Medicaid

OK MAGAs Defend This It's only the foundation on which our country was founded on, as well as all civil democracies This is exactly why MAGAs want to destroy public education, it has nothing to do with DEI or LGBT or any of their crazy ideas

Has anyone read The Athletic's story of some players concerns about the ABS system? https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6366519/2025/05/19/automated-ball-strike-system-mlb/?source=athletic_pulsenewsletter Players are concerned that the margin of error in the automated system was close to a half inch. Doesn't sound like much but a pitch 1/10 an inch inside the strike zone could also be construed as 4/10 outside the zone. In other words they say if it's not perfect, why change it? No opinion here, there will always be arguments. They just have to weed out the consistently bad umpires.
