Third inning didn't dissuade me.

Once a Met, always a Met.

Federal judge in Chicago demands testimony on whether ICE immediately violated her order 🔽

Feels quaint, almost cliché, to say this about a Trump action, but just for the record:

This is all illegal, the President can't simply disregard the laws passed and agencies created by Congress, and both Vought & Trump would be impeached if the Constitution or the rule of law mattered to the GOP.

All of this, in violation of the Constitution.

I think two things are true:

1. young republicans were always terrible and racist

2. young republicans become openly hitler-loving groypers is in fact a new and alarming development that is worth paying attention to

ICE agents, who have no jurisdiction or legal right to TOUCH a U.S. Citizen, violently assaulting and kidnapping U.S. citizens, with no Miranda rights, and taking them over state lines.

He did it again for the 5 year anniversary

Armed officers in military-style gear confront a group of civilians during a tense outdoor standoff; one officer points a rifle at a young man who raises his hands defensively while others shout in the background, with trees and houses visible behind them.

This is Chicago, armed fascist thugs pointing guns at unarmed US citizens.

This is genuinely one of those things EVERYONE agrees on. My last dog shooting case was in rural MO and the town was OUTRAGED. Imagine 65 year olds at the town meeting talking about how they don't need police if that's what they're gonna do.

Donald Trump is nearly unique in having absolutely no redeeming qualities. Just the absolute worst humanity has to offer.

I cannot believe people were losing their jobs for being mildly critical of Charlie Kirk and the president of the united states just went on tv and said "skill issue loser, RIP but I'm different"

The State of the Republic is Grim - Lawyers, Guns & Money If you’re on Bluesky and follow me, you’ve probably seen that I’m writing threads that really should be the basis for posts at LGM. You’ve also likely gotten a bead on where I am these days. Here’s a ...

I agree with everything @dhnexon.bsky.social says in this post about where we’re at with the American Republic today and where we must go from here:

I will refer to this report when Republicans demand i walk back my statement their Party is a pox on the polity and must be sent into the dustbin of history.

BREAKING: President Donald J. Trump's run on Nightwing has been cancelled by DC Comics

Unless and until some kind of compelling legal and moral argument is presented as to why this is a legitimate use of deadly force, this is just…mass murder.

U.S. police kill roughly 25 pet dogs a day, the majority of which pose no threat to them.

I have long believed that we should be WAY more vocal about how police and ICE constantly murder dogs, and I think this is great messaging actually.

The reality is that you can mobilize a whole lot of usually tuned-out Americans around a “someone is being mean to hecking doggos” cause.

7 Palestinians killed by Israeli gunfire in Gaza Seven people have been killed after Israeli forces opened fire on several people they say approached soldiers near the agreed-upon ceasefire ‘yellow line’ in northern Gaza on Tuesday. The Israeli mili...

CBC reporting that seven Palestinians in Gaza have been killed. Israel says they were killed for approaching ceasefire line. An independent journalist who works with CBC says they were nowhere near the line when killed, and that Israel isn’t abiding by the ceasefire agreement.

That insanity goes down officially as a grounded into double play, making it the only batted ball hit over 350 feet for a GIDP in the pitch tracking era (reg. + postseason).

Max Muncy grounded into a 404-foot double play.

Police officers who publicly declare that they’ll quit if a mayoral candidate they dislike wins the election are (1) usually bluffing—sure buddy, toss away that paycheck and pension—and (2) exactly the sort of cops cities would be better off without, ones who don’t see themselves as public servants.

Now that you say it, it's going to be hard not to see it.

Once again I am begging Topps Now

So, bases loaded. CF Frelick tipped the ball into the wall, making it in play and not an out. Frelick relayed to SS Joey Ortiz to catcher William Contreras, forcing out the runner at home. Contreras then ran the ball to third, forcing the runner there.

You know, a garden-variety double play.

An email asking for an extension that reads: “Professor Fasano, Like Hamlet, I have hesitated to act for reasons I cannot articulate even to myself. May I have an extension on the Hamlet paper?”

Yesavage is still a strikeout king. I hope the first three were inexperience, rattled after the first strikeout became a walk.

But I guess we'll see.
