career bureaucrats with records of accomplishment who happen to be black? illegal DEI. some barely literate chud with a mail-order degree from dr. nick? merit!

the same administration screaming at universities about “merit” is also elevating unqualified hacks to critical positions, which makes you wonder about what they mean by “merit”

Don’t kid yourself. The “direction” they didn’t like was more diversity and more equality.

A very long 4 years...

HOLY. SHIT.

This is powerful. Wow.

Plus, I’m starting to believe that NOBODY is beating this Brewers team. My goodness what a team.

I always figured that once the Dodgers won the World Series I’d be able to just chill and enjoy Dodger baseball again. I was wrong.

But I’m glad they did win last year because it’s becoming harder for me to imagine them even getting out of the NLDS. Or the Wild Card series for that matter.

23 baserunners leading to four runs seems hard to do

Yet another dogshit loss. The bullpen blows it AGAIN and the offense can’t do shit when it matters. Seven walks in the last two innings and you can only cash in ONE?! Fucking ridiculous.

This team just loves finding ways to lose.

Yea……………

This has been a clean series so far so tough to complain right now but man, the Dodgers just seem to make a lot of dumb mistakes this year. Trying to steal third in that spot with two outs and a one run lead with this bullpen 🤦‍♂️

The Dodgers should do this more often. #Analysis

It'll be 3 MVPs in a row.

4 in 5 years.

And the only reason it's not 5 in a row is because Judge went and hit 62 HR in 2022 with a 1.111 OPS -- so it required one of the greatest years ever to take him down.

MLB players with 40+ HR each of the last three seasons:

Shohei Ohtani

Shohei posed a bit for #40. Absurd power.

@crockett.house.gov: "They pledge their fealty to some idiot who's obviously struggling mentally. Whether it's mental decline or whether he's ever had the capacity, they decided they're going to do whatever he wants them to do.. I never thought I'd see the day that a Texan would bow down to a NYer."

The fact that Trans service members who are forced to leave the military are being denied early retirement pension if they are 15-19 years in, is angering and should anger all Americans.

Meanwhile the draft dodging fat-assed douche canoe clown balls of a President dodged the draft.

@genefortexas.bsky.social: "We're buying time for Texans to wake up... To not only deal with TX but deal w/ this in every other state. If ppl who lie, cheat, and steal are allowed to win the day, that is the end of our country... Get off your ass! This is our last shot at saving the American dream."

Lol we’re getting the full Blake Snell experience today 😂

Good morning. Trump is protecting Epstein files. The confederacy lost and they were traitors, mRNA vaccines are the future, cops shouldn’t wear masks, Trump cut taxes for the rich and ripped benefits from the poor.

Have a weekend

Obviously this is a disaster but I just have to say it’s absolutely insane to me how quite literally EVERYTHING Republicans accuse Democrats of doing, they are doing themselves.

On September 7, 2008, 54,000+ fans packed into Dodger Stadium to witness an epic duel between Randy Johnson and Greg Maddux but both pitchers were scratched before the game. Their replacements were Max Scherzer and Clayton Kershaw!

And they face off again tonight!

I have said it before and will say it again, but: being able to see something and go "well that's none of my business" when it actually, truly is none of your business is a very important skill to cultivate.

The next time you hear conservatives use any of the following terms, ask for a definition. 

"Woke"
"DEI"
"Critical race theory"
"Socialism" 

They won't have any.

They just want to stoke culture wars to divert attention from economic looting and oligarchy.

I tried it and I’m losing my mind at Jeterson

I always knew one of my ancestors was secretly a President of the United States! 😂

it’s basically trite to note at this point but if this were any other president, and certainly a democrat, spending a ton of money to gild the white house would be a legit scandal
