4 suckers and losers are arriving at Dover today. markets are crashing. but Trump is getting out his shine box for his Saudi owners in Florida and MAGA still pissed at Biden because of some trans DIII volleyball player when an administration is not punished - but celebrated - for its lies, incompetence, ignorance and cruelty - how do we even move forward as a country?

the $10T (that's TRILLION) the Markets have lost since inauguration day are primarily due to (stupid) politics

more manufacturing were created under Biden than Trump not sure when the impact of IRA and the Chips Act will be, but in theory they were good ideas grounded in reality

not sure why I am continually amazed at his aggressive ignorance. so stupid and so incompetent. just amazing that this idiot is choosing to destroy the economy for nothing more than sh\ts and giggles.

"oblivious" is a perfect word; Jokic wills the team to victory, but Westbrook won't let it happen. This is stuff you learn on your grade school team

they can lose with Cade playing 38 minutes, or lose with Cade sitting out this one, too

Toledo lost 8-4 at RR Jung @ 2B: 2 BBs Lee @ 3B: H Tyler Owens: 1 IP; 2Ks (rest of the line-up is a bunch of 28 year-old guys still hanging around)

Be careful if you invade Detroit for a Tigers game; someone might be tempted to turn you in hoping for an extra ration of protein slab from Commissar Noem.

jury's still out, but this might end up being a pretty good draft.

one of the few times Trump actually followed through; he promised that he would demean and degrade the Other, so that MAGA would be momentarily entertained by the abject cruelty - he's delivered.

Bigbee back to Erie in favor of lots of AAAA talent that Harris is stashing to Toledo. Not a big deal, and maybe he get lots of at bats at Erie, but I'm sure he would prefer Toledo

so Toledo is playing at Round Rock of the PCL this week? do we really need interleague games at AAA? I thought the point of one week minor league stays was to cut travel time and costs? Can't hurt, but don't see the need for this.

Musk found a buyer for X/Twitter, offloading it for $33B. That's a lot less than he paid for it, and certainly a complete bullsh}t valuation in 2025. The buyer? None other than xAI, owned by Elon Musk. Word is the negotiations were fierce.

RH utility IFs who cannot play short have a painfully narrow path to the majors - even when they hit well, which he only did for a 6 week blip in 2023

if my team's closer is Jason Foley, can't I ask them to find someone better?

sounds like you are satisfied with the job Dems are doing i am not

this is like asking me what Scott Harris should do. HE'S the MLB guy, not me, but.... 1. Hold a press conference every day about Trump and Musk's corruption. Need to spoon feed the media something every day. that is why they cover Trump. Every day he gives them a story on a platter they do not need to work for. 2. Put Crockett, Jeffries and other young people out there who have the instincts and energy to fight. Eff norms. 3. Throw sh\t at the wall every day and see what sticks - run with that. Remember there is no penalty for lying, so don't worry too much about the truth. 4. Talk EVERY day about how TRUMP'S high prices, TRUMP'S corruption, TRUMP'S incompetence effect ordinary people (like FEMA's inability to respond in the Carolinas). Don't focus on his stupidity and cruelness and amorality - no one effing cares. Focus on how those things hurt Americans. 5. They need to play the media game a lot better, and they need to give the American people the entertainment they demand from politics. Competence is frankly irrelevant. 6. "Donald Trump continues to hurt ordinary Americans by ...." is how they should start every sentence. edit 7. AND I want a steady diet of "Billionaire Welfare Queen Elon Musk controls the President." I think that clearly resonates with a huge number of Americans.

again, are Dems even trying to weaponize this humiliation? they should be if this happened under Obama or Biden, Fox would run 3 hours specials about America's lack of respect around the world, and the need for a dictator to restore our lost honor, given away by the black guy or the old guy.

so confident of victory, I just dropped 25 large (that's twenty-five dollars on my budget) on a Tigers win with 7 Skubal Ks.

One of my favorites: "You don't understand; muzzle velocity is key to the entire argument!"

Kreidler required 3 CFs going down for him to get time. He's a LA kid, so I assume he is hitting 3 HRs on opening day, a la Dmitri Young.

Schrödinger's Signal thread: It's a nothing burger, that contains no war plans and nothing top secret, and if Goldberg releases the entire thread, he will be black-bagged out of existence.

there is no level of incompetence that MAGA will not just tolerate, but celebrate

Cavs might lose their 5th in a row - and to a Jazz team that is begging to lose

if you're a white guy - just don't get a deep tan and you'll be OK
