Loved your AMA today. Can you further explain how the Red Sox management think Buehler is performing to expectations? He had a 4.4 ERA entering the game and they are paying him $20 million a year. Heโ€™s washed up and has been fore a while

Trump is likely to start saying Dems support tariffs to confuse voters on who to blame. Unfortunately, Bernie Sanders, AOC, Chris Deluzio, and others do support tariffs

Progressives and Dem populists are helping Trump with their irresponsible tariff approach to placate unions that vote Trump

Sanders Opposes Trumpโ€™s USMCA: Full Statement ยป Senator Bernie Sanders WASHINGTON, January 15โ€”Today, Senator Bernie Sanders (I-V.t.) spoke in opposition to the United States, Mexico, Canada Free Trade Agreement (USMCA) in the U.S. Senate. The following are the Senatorโ€™s ...

Progressives and economic populists are helping Trump.

Gretchen Whitmer is wrong, Joe Biden was wrong, and Bernie Sanders has never supported free trade โ€” which inherently means he supports blanket tariffs. These are 1930s approaches to trade

MLB needs to fix its blackout policy. There's no good reason I should be allowed to watch the White Sox.

Alex Ovechkin ties Wayne Gretzkyโ€™s NHL career goals record with No. 894 No. 894 came on home ice for Ovechkin, whose Washington Capitals are facing the Chicago Blackhawks on Friday.

Capitals star Alex Ovechkin has tied Wayne Gretzkyโ€™s NHL career goals record with goal No. 894.

Ovechkin scored the 894th goal of his NHL career in the third period Friday against the Chicago Blackhawks to draw even with Gretzky. It was his second goal of the night.

Biden was not representative of where Dem mods are. Nancy Pelosi is โ€” who championed a lot of free trade initiatives. Same with Obama. Progressives suck on the issue and should be ignored.

Literally the worst messaging and policy approach possible from House Democrats.

Whoever signed off on this should be fired immediately, and Rep Deluzio should face a primary challenge, today.

Why Trump Won and How Dems Can Win the Working Class Podcast Episode ยท Politics + Media 101 ยท 11/16/2024 ยท 1h 13m

How can Democrats win on trade? I discussed this back in November on my podcast. Check out minute 30. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/p...

Biden was bad on trade and Bernie is much much worse. I worked on Capitol Hill and had trade in my portfolio and vividly remember Bernie using exactly the same rhetoric as Trump to try and kill TPP. Bernie and progressives are *awful* on trade despite the unions they pander to voting Trump

Yes. Bernie believes in bringing back mythical manufacturing jobs that have been placed by technology and cheap labor overseas. Itโ€™s a crazy economic approach that failed in 1929, and why he should never be anywhere near the White House.

As Trumpโ€™s tariffs absolutely destroy the stock market and economy, itโ€™s important to remember that progressives have been the faction that opposes free trade and supports tariffs, that Bernie Sanders ran against trade in 2016, and itโ€™s why AOC is quiet right now.

Progressives wonโ€™t fix this

When MAGA folks say โ€œno scalpsโ€ and pledge to stand by Hegseth no matter what, they are telling us something very important.

More mistakes will be made. Signalgate can happen again. They are fine w that.

People are going to get hurt.

Jeffrey Goldberg and the Atlantic deserve a ton of credit for publishing these war plans. Thereโ€™s a non-zero chance Trump tries to throw him in jail over this.

Here Are the Attack Plans That Trumpโ€™s Advisers Shared on Signal The administration has downplayed the importance of the text messages inadvertently sent to The Atlanticโ€™s editor in chief.

The texts shared a ton of classified info. Itโ€™s a simple test. If our enemy got this would it endanger the lives of our servicemembers and/or the mission? If the Russians had passed this to the Houthis our people would have died and the mission failed. RESIGN! www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

This Trump National security breach is so incredibly bad it has nothing to do with a journalist being on the signal thread.

In no way, shape, or form, should extremely classified information on war plans be shared on signal, a service being monitored by Russia, China and others.

A reminder that I warned everyone how stupid Pete Hegseth is and how much of a danger he would be to our national security as Secretary of Defense. This is before he mistakenly texted journalists highly classified war plans... www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Senator Susan Collins is probably going to vote to confirm Tulsi Gabbard because she knows Gabbard wonโ€™t be confirmed and it will help her with Maine voters ; lots of weird Democrats (anti-Government) and Trump / Bernie Sanders voters in the state

Unfortunately, unless an alleged victim comes forward, the GOP Senate will almost certainly confirm Pete Hegseth.

Interesting article on Puerto Rico from a conservative publication. Dems have left the island behind, but Trump and Republicans can make it the crown jewel of America and set an example for Latin America.

The island could also turn GOP. Dems should be ashamed for listening to AOC
