A liberal Twitter refugee. Looking for good politics talk along with talking about the cubs and other sports. Friends and family have told me I should start a podcast. Trying to figure out how to get a following here. I’m happy to interact with people

Well, my 9-7 prediction for the bears still looks plausible

Which is why Biden was the best president in modern history. Modern being since 1980ish

That’s not Biden’s job. That was garland’s job. Garland was the one hiring mistake Biden made, but when he made it, it made sense.
Trump should have been arrested as he left the White House and gone on trial by summer of 2021, but alas, that didn’t happen.

I said at least, people’s opinions of Clinton vary.
Biden is def better than Trump, either Bush, and Reagan, arguably better at the job of president than Obama, and right there with Clinton. That’s modern history.
Before that you get Carton, Ford and Nixon. Then LBJ and JFK.

His work as president was the best job since Clinton at least.
His handling of his campaign was not good.
They are two separate things.

Because it’s pretty objectively true. Obama was a better campaigner than president.
If Biden had said in 2022 that he wasn’t running in 2024, there would be no question about the accuracy of this statement.
Fixing Trump’s mess takes time, and Biden wasn’t given that time

Ahhh yes, just what I want to watch when I turn on the bears game, the 3-9 browns vs the 1-11 titans.
No wonder college football is more popular in the south than the NFL

Bama didn’t deserve to be in in the first place even before they lost to Georgia.

ICE Agents Released an Attack Dog on a Man: Report The latest horrific development in Trump’s war on immigrants occurred in the state of Washington.

Toledo-Martinez answered a knock at his door to find a federal immigration agent posing as a construction worker, who claimed to have hit his car.

He went outside and another agent released the dog, which bit him repeatedly. Now Patty Murray calls for his release.

This shit should be just as banned in sports as steroids. Not because it gives an advantage, it doesn’t, but because it can actually hurt people. This stuff is dangerous at worst, and a scam at best.

Also, what about Michael Busch?

If those two things are true, the next 5 years will be fantastic

And the saddest part is that this is the message Biden should have been saying back in 2021 and Dems will have to be saying in 2029 and beyond.
The hole Trump is digging will take decades to get out of.

That is something I’ve actually been curious about. Do the cubs allow fewer doubles in the gap than other teams?
PCA seems to cut off a TON of them

3 Questions:

1) What are we doing?
2) How is this pro-life?
3) What are we doing?

There’s the same amount of evidence of this happening as there is of those boats having drugs destined for the US on them

Remember how badly we handled Iraq and Afghanistan and arguably lost both of those wars? We had at least nominally competent military leadership then.
We now have completely incompetent military leadership. And they think they’ll just walk over Venezuela.
This will end badly.

She needed to have more of a message explaining the context of the attack ads.
The “she hates Nashville” thing upset a lot of republicans in rural middle tn especially. Cause people in Nashville also hate Nashville.

A raw chicken hanging from an oven rack by its wings and legs with toothpicks. The chickens is dotted with cubes of butter attached by tooth picks and someone is shoving a large piece of butter covered in garlic cloves into the cavity of the bird

Donald Trump is completely insane. This weekend settled it. It’s not an act. He’s nuts.
And the worst people in the world are hanging on around him as his inexplicable cult worships him.

This is not normal.
