#DemocraticParty, please stop sending me emails for contributions until you get your act together and the horrible “leadership” of Schumer & Jeffries are relieved of their positions. No fight, no vision, no messaging and incredibly disheartening. Ready to leave the party and go Independent.

The fact that they put Harold Baines & Don Sutton in the Hall of Fame before the great #DaveParker is a joke! Keith Hernandez, Steve Garvey and Don Mattingly also belong in the Hall of Fame. Baines being in is ridiculous. DH who played forever and a bunch of teams!

#Schumer & #Jeffries gotta go! Step aside now and let some real leadership take place. I vote #NoConfidence! What little messaging you’re doing is weak and has zero direction! Thank you for your service now it’s your turn to step aside!

@simonwdc.bsky.social please convince me to remain a Democrat. I respect you immensely but I’m disgusted with the awful, non-leadership of Schumer & Jeffries and their tone deaf or no messaging. Wholesale rebrand is needed. Probably going Independent. Left leaning Moderate here. I trust you.

This guy is a clown and should run out of baseball! The #Pirates are a complete joke of an organization and #BenCherington is historically the worst GM in baseball ever!

My friend the great, Hall of Fame boxing writer Mike Katz passed away. A brilliant writer and journalist. A class guy and always a great conversation. Rest in peace.

The term “#YachtRock” is silly, dumb and incredibly dismissive to some exceptional musician’s work during a certain period. That phrase was created by some untalented, hack comedians on YouTube trying to be ironic about 20 years ago.

December 25, 1924: 100 years ago, Rod Serling is born.
As he put it: “I was a Christmas present that was delivered unwrapped.”
Lois Nettleton (“The Midnight Sun”) called him “a lovely gift to the world,” and who could disagree?
A toast to all on the centennial of Rod’s birth!

Just watched #UnderTheVolcano directed by #JohnHuston from #MalcolmLowry’s novel. Was blown away by the bravura performance by #AlbertFinney. His perf as a drunk is by far the finest & most realistic ever. I’ve been around drunks like this and it’s incredible. Bisset is stunning
