I get this, but here's where I'm at:
Trump & Vance are the worst of us. America is bigger than them, and they win if we let them define us.
Team USA is the best of us. It's filled with Americans MAGA hates—first-generation + immigrants, LGBTQ+ athletes, people of color—& I'm gonna root for them.

I really really want these athletes to have a great experience, be competitive and perhaps win a gold medal, but, honestly, the thought of hearing "USA!USA!USA!" during their games kinda makes me cringe. If we were any other country the IOC would ask us to march under the olympic flag.

Sheeeesh. Great move by the Tigers to pair with Skubal. I wonder if this gets the ball rolling on Gallen too.

It's been one of the greatest privileges of my life to be part of this journey along with Mark and co, and the result is one of the best things I've ever been part of.
I hope you all enjoy it!

Abolish ICE, prosecute and imprison its leaders, impeach and remove the President from office. This is the only sane reaction to a group of armed men kidnapping and gunning down our neighbors in the street.
As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.
ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

If Yu Darvish is indeed retiring, what a career. He's been one of my absolute favorite players to watch and personalities to follow for so long. The game of baseball has been so much brighter with him in it. Legend.

Joel Wolfe, Yu Darvish's agent, responds: "Yu has not made a final decision yet. This is a complicated matter we are still working through.''
Yu Darvish, 39, considered an icon among Japanese players who have followed him to MLB, has informed the San Padres that he is retiring. He is walking away from the $43 million left in the next 3 years of his contract, as Kevin Acee reports.

Fox News: "I've gotten my hands that AG Bondi said she sent to Gov. Tim Walz. It is strongly worded. The AG calls for the governor to support the men and women of ICE, to repeal the state's sanctuary policies, and to allow the DOJ to access state voter rolls."

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

confusing Greenland and Iceland is an honest mistake. Saying call me “daddy” to the EU, putting tariffs on the Swiss because its cheese has holes, telling stories about the 2020 election like your brain is fried in canola, and blowing up all ally agreements are less forgivable
