An extremist Supreme Court is poised to overturn #RoeVWade and impose its far-right, unpopular views on the entire country. It's time for the millions who support the Constitution and abortion rights to stand up and make their voices heard. We're not going back—not ever.

Baseball is Bliss. On the radio. On TV. Or in the stands. Big Leagues. Minor Leagues. College. High School. Or Little League. The pitcher peers down from the mount. The batter digs in. Play ball.

17 years ago…Watched with a sleeping 5YO son and our newly adopted beagle, Fenway. At the last out (because, you know…1986), shook him and yelled, “Wake up, the #RedSox are going to win the World Series!”Still says he will never forget that moment. Me neither. ⚾️♥️
