I hope Ms. Pike recovers fully and has her sentence commuted to life. But if she has brain damage, the State may have no choice. A mentally retarded person (better expressed as developmentally disabled) cannot be subjected to capital punishment.

Red elephants versus blue donkeys are fine. But I never thought I would ever see the United States Government pay for a political ad. I just did. If Trump believes he can get away with that, he thinks he can declare martial law and cancel the November elections on national security grounds. WTF!

Watching Texas-Tenn on ESPN 4k. Instead of commercials we get silence and a view of the field and stands. Six twenty-somethings. Lots of discussion during game action. When the 2.5 - 3 minute TV silence period starts, six heads bow toward cell phones, no conversation. Screw Gen X. It’s Gen Captured.

Saturday college football. Starts at noon. I made three giant omelette gran mere, split between six. Good 11 a.m. prep for mid-afternoon drinking. My guests seem pleased. Life is good despite the occasional bad shit that everyone has to deal with.

2027 MLB season? Other sports have worked out the labor issue pretty well, labor gets about half the net revenue. Why not with MLB? If the top hitters and pitchers could only get 10 year guaranteed contracts for a quarter of a billion dollars under a salary cap, that doesn’t seem unfair to them.

It's actually fitting that the arch would have hidden soldiers and weapons inside. Trump got elected by promising white males they would reclaim their advantages in society. MAGA didn't know that promise hid puppy killing Noems and beer guzzling Patels, and a cast of total loser characters.

Trump’s a genius. Republicans have tried to eliminate Medicaid for years, without success, because most Americans aren’t heartless assholes. But you lose Medicaid if you have over $2000. So giving every adult on it $5000 gets them off it. (Kicking kids off it will require another brilliant idea.)

I stopped posting here because I couldn’t think of anything to say that hadn’t already been said about the real world and real events. I thought I could make up facts, construct a plot, and be marginally competent at that. Apparently not. What’s the point of being around?

The VA should conduct a referendum of Veterans on whether it should be built. In person voting only of course. And anyone who demanded and received multiple draft deferments gets to vote, because they served our country as role models for patriotism.

Keeping the names of millionaires who got access to minors for sex via Epstein secret makes him guilty of child molestation as an accessory after the fact, by hindering their arrest and prosecution. Every word that doesn’t identify victims in the Epstein Files must be made public.

American farmers selling products to Canadian processors or grocery stores pay no tariffs. The Canadian companies pay them. Trump knows that, but also knows most of his political base have swallowed his lie about it. Well at least he's consistent. He prefers followers who swallow.

TSA and Olive Garden won’t deny a woman boarding or unlimited pasta if she forgets that she was supposed to report her new married name to a registration office. Not being skilled at dealing with government bureaucracy shouldn’t deny mothers of soldiers defending our country of their right to vote.

You are correct. What Spain did, justifiably, is choose an official photograph that didn't include someone who didn't belong in it. A man who used his influence to gain an advantage for his country's team doesn't represent the values of fair play and integrity that honorable people value.

Trump threatened to eliminate the elected local government of the District of Columbia if he doesn’t like the next mayor its residents elect. He sent Vance to Hungary to campaign for a tyrant. He believes election interference is fine ONLY if its goal is to make elections turn out like he wants.

Tomahawk missiles land where the inputted coordinates tell them to. Since Israel has more assets in Iran than the U.S., and Israel’s goal was to obtain the most violent Iranian reaction possible, the coordinates may have come from there. Pure speculation of course. But consistent with past events.

Final score: Norway 1, England 1 , Cable 1. American obsession with high tech in sports coverage interferes with the world's purest international athletic competition. U.S. AM radio (ordinarily dedicated to MAGA propaganda) should be forced to play only Norwegian Death Metal music for a month.

Mitch McConnell is actually the best metaphor for, and representation of, America and our political system He spent almost a century making the world a better place for only himself and his friends, married an immigrant while working tirelessly against other immigrants. Using the system for himself

We learned something from his marriage. There are billionaires in China. The Communist Party operates a dictatorship but it’s like what the Musks and Zuckerbergers want for the United States, total control by the 1% at the top. Only lost cause MAGA voters will buy Trump’s “Communist Threat” garbage.

Trump’s fear Russia or China will invade and take control of Greenland unless we have it is absurd. Section 5 of the NATO Charter would require the US and the rest of the alliance to take action if the territory of a member nation is attacked. Russia and China know this, so an attack won’t happen.

The No votes are honest Republicans who believe the free enterprise system requires that wealth control everything. The Republicans who voted yes are dishonest. They believe exactly the same thing but aren't in safe districts where they can ignore the needs of their non-affluent constituents.

Same with DJT Media stock. Influence seekers who knew better, and MAGA fools who didn't, bought it at 70-90 a share. Financials show big operating loss with no path to reverse that. Now 8 a share. Fearless Leader owns 41% of the stock. Maybe the Saudi Sovereign Wealth Fund will offer to buy it all.

As with baseball World Series records, this must be viewed in context. In Pele's era sixteen teams qualified for the World Cup. Way fewer matches. So his performance there was more dominating. Messi is also amazing of course. But saying he's better based solely on goals scored isn't valid.

If you think it was ethical to represent the American taxpayers in Trump's civil case against the government, forget Attorney General. Agreeing to settle the claim for a huge amount of money, plus tax evasion immunity, when the person suing the government can fire you, means he should be disbarred.

Oh but his plan for that was made when the fighting had stopped except for Israel's invasion of Lebanon. Surely now that his leadership is needed to keep the lid on escalation there, and we have thousands of our military at risk if it hits the fan, he won't be going to a sports event. Right?

This guy just lost his primary election. He's wanting to prove he fits Trump's definition of loyalty because he's gonna need a job next year. That definition is "Be willing to make a fool of yourself for me." Georgia Republican voters already figured out he fits it, so they rejected him big time.

He cares more about money. Instead of worrying about people, he has come up with a way to hide giving Iran its frozen funds. Give them to Qatar, UAE, Kuwait to repair war damages. Those countries will then give Iran an equal amount in trade/commodity credits. He'll brag he didn't do what Obama did.

Watch not just Democrats but democracy-loving Republicans joyfully welcome the removal of the name of the would-be King from the Kennedy Center. For them it's like watching the swastika on the Berlin Olympic Stadium get blown up in an old movie.

Creating a $200 bill in 1976 would have made more sense than a $250 bill now. Could have been permanent. But can you imagine someone suggesting Jimmy Carter should be on it? He would have laughed and said it was a ridiculous idea. That's what true Christians do on things like that, no ego problems.

There are 2 ways we’ll see an individual no hitter. A pitcher might get 27 outs with 120 pitches if he induces weak contact early in at-bats, not many strikeouts. Or a pitcher who is too important for a manager to piss off, like Skenes, might be permitted to throw more pitches than that to get one.

The community note should say “found by a civil jury to have committed sexual assault.” Let’s not misrepresent undisputed facts. His criminal convictions were for attempting to turn his $130,000 hush money payment into a tax deductible business expense and other business records misrepresentations.

How can an attorney who serves at the pleasure of a person suing for an award of government money be expected to oppose the claim? It's an irreconcilable conflict of interest. An independent counsel should have been appointed to vigorously contest the claim. Embarrassing.

The Constitution protects us from dictatorship in several ways. One is that Congress controls spending. Saying that the Attorney General, who serves at the pleasure of the President, can settle a case with the President for $1.7 billion in unappropriated funds? No way that's constitutional.
