He would have had a much better batting average if those lefty socialist and communist pitchers he faced weren't conspiring against him to make him look bad! Never forget that the entire world is conspiring against Donnie to prevent him from achieving the "greatness" he believes is his birth right!

A data center was just shut down in Wisconsin after the town council refused to have private talks with the developer and told them everything would include public approval That’s how it’s done, folks
Great news! We only torched 80% of our missile interceptors. That leaves a full 20% for the next war. Which starts Tuesday. Relax. Raytheon’s on it. Delivery date: 2031. P.S. Duck.
This Thursday, SpaceX insiders will be released from their first post-IPO stock lockup and can cash out early. As I've been saying, this has all the hallmarks of a Ponzi scheme.
I miss the good ol’ days when Joe Biden was the President when Civil Discourse Mondays focused on three topics: 1. Chickens 2. Chickens with their favorite foods 3. Chickens with dogs and cats

Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.
A new Senate investigation says JPMorgan, Deutsche Bank and Bank of America processed massive sums tied to Jeffrey Epstein despite glaring red flags. Powerful institutions helped keep his operation running and every one of them must be held accountable. Follow the money, release everything.
This is the reality inside ICE detention centers. Children are being forced into jail-like conditions while this Administration strips away their basic human rights. We cannot allow this stand. We must hold this inhumane Administration accountable!

The President promotes Scotts Miracle-Gro in the middle of an Oval Office event: The best grass you can get. Scotts, you know Scotts? Scott's Miracle-Gro, they're doing it. They do great grass. I got to give him a plug because they did the White House for free.
On this day in 1944, the Gestapo found Anne Frank and her family in their Secret Annex. Her diary stands as a warning against hatred and persecution. Eighty years later, we should recognize the warning signs before it’s too late.🙂↕️
Gill: All 100 senators last week passed a non-binding resolution condemning any pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. They're simultaneously considering confirming the guy who met with her and moved her to a low-security facility as the top cop in the United States. That is so insane to me.
