Ex-MLB player Jeremy Giambi 'seemed different' after baseball head injury before death by suicide The former Oakland A's slugger became "very emotional, very negative" after he was hit in the head six months before he died, his family told the coroner. Drug tests came back negative, a report shows...

I didn’t know Giambi had this head injury that might have been untreated: www.nbcnews.com/news/sports/...

I just watched the play and… oh my lord.

Brutal.

Old enough to remember Donnie Moore (google him, kids) and it was gutting to read reports that Jeremy Giambi never got over his β€œnon slide” before he took his own life. Certainly not trying to frame Kerkering’s gaffe beyond tonight, but don’t be a dick, friends. That’s all

the other site is basically all of this and more open to calls for courage against perceived enemies.

those with power aren't doing anything to bridge the divide at all.

none of this anymore: youtu.be/JIjenjANqAk?...

Pritzker: "He said he was going after the worst of the worst. It's not going after the worst of the worst when you're just literally stopping children who happen to be brown & asking them for papers as if they're gonna have proof they're a citizen. Pull out your phones and film everything you see"

Oregon National Guard Adjutant General, General Gronewold says if they are federalized, that he will advise the Title 10 commander to utilize National Guard Troops to PROTECT protesters at ICE facilities. This is the right answer.

I’m so struck by this video. A regular day in Logan Square in front of a grocery store and ICE pulls up and tear gassed people. Funston Elementary School is right across the street as well. This is a major corridor in Logan Sq. No concern for human safety

Why I am posting this? Because I’m deeply concerned that we are seeing physical actions on US Citizens that trample our rights. And nothing is being done to stop it.

I try to keep up the fight for constitutional American values over the there, but my god. There’s no stopping that echo chamber controlled by legions of idiots.

Meanwhile on the other site, a β€œcitizen journalist” (looks like a agitating bystander in videos) was arrested in PDX and the extreme right wing (Russia) is cheering on troops being deployed.

Obama: We have to recognize that on both sides there are people who are extremistsΒ 

But I will say that those extreme views were not in my White House. I wasn’t embracing them. I wasn’t empowering them. I wasn’t putting the weight of the government behind extremist views.

Fun fact: Nancy Mace is trying to censure me over comments I never said.
Β 
Her res does not contain a single quote from me because she couldn’t find any.
Β 
Unlike her, I have routinely condemned political violence, no matter the political ideology.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide.

As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire.

End the genocide. Ceasefire now.
