John B @johncburnett.bsky.social · 07/10/2026The tone-deaf remark from Susan Collins at the 6:33 mark is truly astounding (“First of all…”). If you can’t watch the whole ~10 minutes, just watch that point to the end. It’s devastating for Collins. Kudos to Troy Jackson. 040

John B @johncburnett.bsky.social · 06/07/2026The MOST infuriating thing about this is that Trump uses the phrase “OUR best player.” Trump and 4 SCOTUS Justices believe that Balogun in not a legal U.S. citizen.

He’s chauvinistic, biased, obnoxious, self-centered, impetuous, etc. The one thing he is certainly NOT is stupid. His intelligence as a media personality is off the charts. Trump called SAS “low IQ” because SAS is Black and Trump is racist. 000
