I can't, but I saw the game tonight against Toronto, which my Mariners won, 3-1. I've sold the tix at cost to my friends.

Thanks for sending. I think the speakers are correct. It's unfounded fear. most probably amplified by NewsMax and Fox News, among others.

Can someone tell me how it's making America great again by denying grants to scientists who are now all fleeing to Europe and Canada to do their research?

Yes, my cousin heads the committee that is trying to replace the statue. They've found an artist. Now, it's a fundraising effort, I believe.

They're going to die because when the next pandemic rolls around, there will be no medical researchers to come up with a cause or a vaccine. They're going to die because of cuts to the FBI and Trump's unleashing a wave of hatred against people of color.

People are going to die. They're going to die because Elon Musk is attacking Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. They're going to die because RFK refuses to endorse the measles vaccine, not to mention putting a pause on next year's flu and Covid vaccines.

Why should we believe ANY of Musk's figures?????? He's cut off the ability of a National Wildlife Refuge manager to buy toilet paper for public bathrooms.

Polish Cold War hero Walesa writes to Trump expressing 'horror' at Zelenskiy spat
Lech Walesa, the former Polish president and Solidarity trade union leader who played a leading role in the fall of Communism, signed a letter to U.S. President Donald Trump expressing "horror" at his argument with Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelenskiy.

One of the stupidest things that Donald Trump has done is to stop the credit card of the manager of 3 natl wildlife refuges in Washington State. How she can't buy toilet paper for the public bathrooms. Two of these are heavily used, so once they run out of inventory, you'll have to bring your own.
