When David slayed Goliath.

5'8", 165-lb electrician Ondřej Satoria strikes out Shohei Ohtani on three pitches.

Fastest pitch: 79 mph.

Even if it's almost the same team, it's clearly better then last season. Cole will be back, Schlittler all year. Bednar. A real defensive 3rd baseman. Ben Rice is a known thing.

Watters: I was walking in my street, a car drives by and I give him a wave. He rolls down the window and says, “F U fascist.” He doesn’t know I’m a fascist!

Jessica: Yes, he does. You’re on TV.

Maybe he changed the channel?

the last two Popes went out of their way to call this man an immigrant hating freak and a fake Catholic.

Bless his heart for going to Italy expecting to have a normal one❤️

Was hoping life would find a way for Reese. I've liked him a lot the past few years. Of course that was in a 16 team, 5 SP league.

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

To add, my default rankings have Ramirez at 7 and Acuna at 12. I saw you ranked them 4 and 5, so you would go either way. Guess you already answered my question! Thanks

@cptowers.bsky.social hey Chris big fan. I got the 7th pick in a 14 team league. OBP and QS.

Normally I'd go for Jose Ramirez, but I'm worried about the Guardians lineup. How do you feel about Acuna this year? Is his upside worth taking a shot on round 1?

Coming out tonight—about 10PM ET—is the most important report I’ve ever written on Trump and Epstein. It began with a deep dive into the Epstein Files, once I learned that my work appeared in them several times. What I found changed forever how I see the Epstein Scandal. I think it will for you too.

MELINDA GATES: “It brings back memories of some very painful times in my marriage — They need to answer to those things, not me.”

She implies she left her marriage and the Gates Foundation for reasons related to Bill’s ties to Epstein.

Reminder that Epstein and Trump shut down the first #MeToo movement by convincing people that being against sexual abuse was woke.

BERNIE SANDERS: Do vaccines cause autism?

BHATTACHARYA: I do not believe that the measles vaccine causes autism

SANDERS: Nah. Uh uh. I didn't ask measles. Do vaccines cause autism?

BHATTACHARYA: I have not seen a study that suggests any single vaccine causes autism

I wonder how many in Congress grasp just how serious this is.

Funny enough YouTube had me watch that yesterday

No! This is impossible! The President of the United States very clearly told the American people that Jeffrey Epstein was permanently banned from Mar-a-Lago in the mid-2000s! The only way he could be casually discussing going there in 2012 is if that whole "ban" was a lie!

Today's the day
Dear Rep. Mann,
With districts this large, representation and oversight suffer. Expanding the House would make Congress more responsive, accountable, and closer to the people it serves. Please explain why you oppose this common-sense reform.
Sincerely,

What's the insurance constraint?

And this is the stuff they let out. More the half still remains hidden .

So this just happened.

“This isn’t a moment, it’s a movement”

I was worried that if Trump, like the President of South Korea, declared martial law, we would not get millions of Americans to march and throw him out of the White House. I was worried that the military would not join the people. But now I have a glimmer of hope. I believe the people WILL 1/2

To my fellow Democrats, call him a fascist. He IS a fascist. Don’t be afraid to say that. He’s using our Justice Department to go after his political enemies. He’s detaining & disappearing people without due process. And now he’s arresting journalists. He’s a fascist. Call him that. Don’t be afraid.

DOJ has since killed this link. This is what was there:

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.

I don’t let bullies win.

Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.
