I love sports, especially the New York Islanders & Toronto Blue Jays. I am also a political and science junkie.

If Buck Martinez is not added to the #BlueJays' Level of Excellence, I'll climb up there and paint it on myself.

Buck Martinez has announced his retirement.

What a career, what a man, what a friend.

When he was traded to the #BlueJays in 1981, he thought that was the end of the road. Today, he retires as one of the most important people in this country's baseball history. To Buck 🥃

If you want to call me a Toronto homer, I understand:

For the life of me, I don't understand how Carlos Delgado has been bypassed for the HOF. Look at his numbers from 1996 to 2008. Incredible.

If the guy hits 17 more HRs, he's at 500 and I bet that optic gets him in.

The SNAP contingency fund holds around $6 billion.

Trump refuses to spend it on the American people.

The same guy who just fast-tracked $40 billion to Argentina.

Trump thinks Argentina deserves our money while he lets Americans starve.

Not a hard question, except for the culture that pretends it's not the answer

1) right-wing media lies incessantly, so anyone truth-based doesn't trust it, and anyone who trusts it doesn't trust anything else

2) other media treats those lies as legitimate, for "fairness," getting trust from no one

Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:
