FYI: @CNN is set to make history when it broadcast a live Broadway performance — @GeorgeClooney’s iconic “Good Night & Good Luck” on June 7 (7 p.m. ET). If you admire Edward R. Murrow’s battle for a free press, this will be must-see TV. Clooney, @clarkgregg sparkle! www.msn.com/en-us/tv/new...

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

I’ve voted regularly for over 50 years. The one vote I most regret is the one I cast for John Fetterman. The current senator from Pa. out-trumps Trump. He has betrayed the people who voted for him, and betrayed all Americans. He should be primary-ed at the first opportunity.

A Game Seven is sports equivalent of the final act of a Shakespeare Classic play. Add in Mad Max and Shohei Ohtani and you so great a possibility of top-level drama it’s almost too much to bear! @bluejays.com @dodgers.com

Game 3 of the World Series had many heroes on both sides.
My top LA three:
Ohtani
Klein
Freeman
My top TOR three:
Lauer
Guerrero
BP
THE MVP? The guy who reached base nine times, had four extra-base hits and was intentionally walked four times.

This is the only way extra-inning games should be played. Not a ghost runner in the conversation. Players have to put on big-boy pants and score runs the old-fashion way — if they can. Mad props to SEA and DET pitchers and defense.

Bravo, Jimmy Kimmel. Speaking truth to power with a twinkle in your eye is what freedom of speech is all about.

Judge Sentences Ex-Officer in Breonna Taylor Raid to Nearly 3 Years in Prison www.nytimes.com/2025/07/21/u.... It’s good to know that some judges honor their oaths. So many are still striving to uphold the law, and show there can be justice dealt no matter the opposition.

I hope everyone notices that Trump is trying to normalize the idea of arresting political opponents for no reason

Remember when the Aarons, Mays and Musials played entire All-Star games? If that happened in this era, I think Ohtani and Judge might be in this swing-off. At least Alonso has HR street cred!!

Trump was shown to leave the stage but wasn’t visibly willing to go as Chelsea lifted the trophy
