It’s been frustrating not seeing him in a Jays uniform essentially since he signed. Now it’ll be frustrating to see him in a Jays uniform, if it ever happens.

Exhibit 987654 in don't idolize athletes: Anthony Santander was a favorite of mine and most #Orioles fans during his time with the team, but he's shown himself to be an awful bigot. The #BlueJays need to drop him. www.forbes.com/sites/peterc...

El-Sayed: "The first 3 things we have to do is end this war -- we need a war powers resolution that brings war-making capacity back to Congress -- number 2, ending this tariff regime & war against Canada, but number 3, stopping the nuclear bomb that's about to go off in our healthcare system ... "

The rest of the world wants to see America become a reliable partner again, not some country just an election away from bat shit crazy. Without some accountability, America's world standing will just continue to fall.

"The American people don't want us to get even; they want us to get things done on their behalf." House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, who is now poised to become the next House Speaker, says that Democrats will focus on affordability concerns and not retribution after their midterm wins.

Thinking about the conversation at the gym I eavesdropped on today where a "very smart guy" said the Dems might be able to take control of the house but could only flip one or two senate seats.

NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

BEATRICE KEUL – 24 YEARS OLD In November 1993, Beatrice Keul, a young Swiss model and financial services professional, was recruited by a woman named Jill Harth to attend the Donald J. Trump American Dream Pageant for 16- to 22-year-olds in Atlantic City and New York.48 According to an interview with Committee Staff,49 at a press luncheon at the event in then-Trump-owned Plaza Hotel, Donald Trump approached Keul and introduced himself, saying “Finally we meet Ms. Keul,” mispronouncing her last name as “cool.” During their at least 15-minute introductory conversation, Trump promised Keul that he would arrange a visa for her, stating that “Paolo”—a reference to Paolo Zampolli—would “take care of that.” Trump further stated that he personally would ensure her acceptance into New York University (NYU). And he repeatedly offered to take care of her and arrange her travel, insisting either “I will take care of you” or, when she said she could handle her own visa, “No no, my friend Paolo will take care of that.” According to Keul, after Trump stepped away from their conversation, Epstein immediately approached her saying “I’m Jeffrey, Don’s best friend.” Epstein then spent at least 10 minutes talking to Keul, all the time looking over and grinning at Trump, who had remained in the room and was watching their conversation from afar. Epstein also made similar promises as Trump and asked Keul to attend a party at Mar-a-Lago in the coming months, saying, “You know I can take care of you. We organize many parties with Don.” Epstein, like Trump, stated that all of her needs would be met: “Flights, accommodations, you don’t have to worry about anything.” Images: (Left) Beatrice Keul and Donald Trump at Plaza Hotel During American Dream World Finals in 1993.

A dumb little thing I always find funny is when a baseball play by play guy says the outfielder was positioned perfectly as he makes a running catch. If he was positioned perfectly then why did he have to run?

Marco putting...uh...El Salvador and Venezuela (I guess?) on notice. Does the US have any other allies who are part of the ICC?

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, massively overreaching for someone with tiny arms: “Either the ICC will end its threats, or we will end the ICC. “And we expect our allies, many of whom are part of the ICC, and that rely on American service members for their defence, to rein in this rogue court.

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead
