Wow! By the end of the trading deadline, the Yankees got two guys who actually can hit. Both acquisitions have batting averages above .260, a rarity in the Yankee lineup.

I am astounded the national political pundits don't understand the rise of Democratic Socialism. It is a clear statement that Capitalism doesn't work for everyone and the conservative wing of the GOP has gone too far.

The State of the Union was unnessarily antagonistic. It certainly was not presidential but it certainly was partisan.

Gold values continue to rise with Trump's messing with the economy. I wonder how much gold he holds. I think he is manipulating prices for his own benefit.

GOP members of Congress, who also are veterans, need now to stick up for Sen. Mark Kelly. It's insane that the Pentagon wants to penalize him for saying what every enlisted individual or officer is taught: You don't have to obey unlawful orders.

With the attack of Venezuela this morning, the U.S. President has acted without Congressional approval. Venezuela never has been or is a threat to us.

As Charlie Kirk is quickly canonized by Trump and his movement, a full depiction of his impact on American politics is largely being sidestepped. Kirk built his movement with falsehoods, and his advocacy was laced with racist and bigoted statements.

No, Charlie Kirk was not practicing politics the right way
His assassination deserves full condemnation; his full impact should not be sidestepped.

RFK Jr. wants to link Tylenol use in pregnant women to autism. The truth: there’s no evidence of that connection, and there’s no single cause for autism. 📌 Tylenol is one of the only approved pain meds for pregnant women. So his reckless plan means forcing them to suffer without options.

Trump long ago established that he’s a racist to the bone. He and his father wouldn’t rent to Black people. He said, “Laziness is a trait in Blacks.” He said some white supremacists in Charlottesville were “very fine people.” We don’t talk about it enough. trib.al/ePTQc5A

Yep—Trump Is Still the Most Racist President of the Last 100 Years
His racism defines nearly everything he does. And it is making the United States of America a cruel, sick, mean place.

The war against DEI is stupid. Leaders understand the need for diverse, disparate opinions to make informed decisions. True leaders understand that treating people equally is vital to ensuring higher morale. True leaders understand that including all employees keeps them informed and engaged.
