For an amazing game like that to end on a questionable check swing call is……a little disappointing. #WorldSeries
Why, it’s almost like the tariffs weren’t necessary to begin with….

It’s very telling that restricting the ability of eligible voters to vote is seen as a win for Republicans.

Vance retakes the lead in the highly competitive contest for most nauseating Trump administration official. Hegseth, Rubio, and Blanche look on jealously as Vance shows them how truly repulsive smarmy demagoguery is done.
Was pulling for the #Brewers. And I guess I still am. But this Timeless Ticket fiasco is a really, really bad look for them, at a time the vibes should be nothing but positive. They need to make it right. And this ain’t the way.

This is insane. The level of overt, proud racism, hatred and bigotry in today's Republican Party is a stain on every leader in it and it will never ever wash away.

Sadly, you knew it was only a matter of time before they went after Watergate.

Yeahhh…….as much as I love Pete it really left a bad taste in my mouth wheh he so quickly and without hesitation said he’s opting out. It was like 5 minutes after the game ended, we’d just completed our slow-motion collapse……..read the room.

If you don’t know this joke, Trump thinks it cool to refuse to put Biden’s photo up, and instead hang a picture of an auto pen. It’s unfunny 3rd grade humor and every foreign leader who sees it knows they are dealing with an unserious old man and a nation to avoid dealing with.
Poorly-aged things.
So wrong! @BarackObama is hosting China's VP Xi Jinping today at the Pentagon with a full honor ceremony with music and cannons...
