Treasury Department Has Plans To Mint Dollar Coin Featuring Donald Trump's Likeness | Defector The United States Department of the Treasury has developed, to the brink of production, a dollar coin that features the face and likeness of President Donald Trump, according to a source within the Tr...

Julius Caesar was the first Roman to put his own living face on coins, weeks before his death. It is one of the deepest cultural signifiers of something autocracies do and republics do not.

I know of *several* clergy whose congregations went batshit crazy and fired them while they were on sabbatical - even when their call agreement specifically speaks against this.

Salvador Perez is the 8th primary catcher to hit 300+ career home runs. Six are in the Hall of Fame.

Salvy is only the second catcher to hit 300+ with one team, joining Johnny Bench.

Umps take Trammell's bat after Yankees appeal The ninth inning of the Yankees' 8-4 win over the Astros on Thursday night was delayed after umpires confiscated a bat used by Astros outfielder Taylor Trammell.

Are the Yankees trying to Pine-Tar the Astros?
