Well…at least it was sunny, I guess? The defense needs sorting soon as.

What a win! I am sure the haters will whine about possession stats, but the fact is that Millwall looked nervous on the ball and couldn’t do much of quality with their possession. And, Kieffer Moore seems perfectly designed for a Parky team and system.

No panic stations yet, but the effect of having so many new faces shows up at both ends. Moore wins the first ball but there is nobody there to win the second. The defense plays like a collection of individuals and not as a unit. Need to get the understandings and partnerships in place soon.

Trump is using bald faced lies to assert control over DC and mobilize the Guard. Is this his Reichstag moment?

Second half just not good enough — lost all our attacking threat. Whether it was the Southampton adjustments or our retreating into our own box, we gave them too much time and space on the ball.

Great listen as always. Just wanted to say that anybody who thinks the preseason tour is “for the documentary” isn’t paying attention to how big clubs do business. Any club that can (e.g. that could draw fans internationally) takes an international tour to build the brand. It is just smart business.

Too many young folks take the whole “arc of the moral universe” thing to mean that progress is veer forwards. In face, a case of “2 steps forward, 1 step backlash” is more typical. And when those engulfed in bigotry are well funded and organized, it can be even worse.

It is getting hard to keep track of which “good old days” the Republicans want returned. Is it the Iraq War? The 2008-2009 financial meltdown? The pre-civil rights and pre-suffrage era? Black Lung Disease? So much goodness and oldness coming our way!

Trump has become an absolute joke on the world stage. Putin played him like a cheap fiddle. Netanyahu ignored him and didn’t even keep him in the loop. Modi tells him, “talk to the hand.” The only person paying attention to Trump is Bukele in El Salvador and that is just for the money.

I think this is a case of Trump simply not bothering to hide the kind of influence peddling that has happened for decades by both parties. And why should he hide it when his supporters don’t care and the rest of his party is too cowardly to do anything about it?

But isn’t it a shame that the judiciary has become so politicized that we now have to look at who appointed a judge before we believe the ruling to be founded in the law, or believe that this time the administration MIGHT comply with it?
