Bizarre. He called the governor of California "The President of the United States" in the led up to his attempt to insult Newsom's cognitive abilities. You can't make this stuff up!

This is really something. It took a lot of work. Four Trumps: - President Trump - Donald J. Trump - DJT - John Barron

Lots of snow out there. And it's heavy. Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

The video is even worse than the social media posts. He just gleefully reveals that Neal Dunn's health diagnosis is terminal and that the man may die in a few months. Mr. Dunn and his family should be appalled by this behavior.

Lots of awful things are happening in our world. Take some time at some point this weekend to watch some of the athletes participating in the 2026 Paralympics. Coverage currently airing on @cnbc.com .

Starting quarterbacks matter. And so do quality backup QBs. Including the playoffs, only 10 NFL quarterbacks started every one of their team's games last season. Just as many teams (10) had three starting quarterbacks throughout 2025. A total of 63 different signal-callers made at least one start.

UGH. Brutal. I had no idea Radko Gudas was Anaheim's team captain.

"Trump is now caught in the oldest trap of modern warfare: believing a swift, surgical military operation will yield quick, enduring political results." We're so screwed. "Trump may be unable to end the war he started with Iran, even if he wanted to" view.newsletters.cnn.com/messages/177...?

"There's no question someone in the White House told Trump to call the war in Iran an 'incursion,' but he heard it as 'excursion' and now he keeps calling it that, making the war sound like a holiday getaway, because no one around him ever corrects him when he makes a mistake." - James Surowiecki

-Little excursion -War Which is it? "The GOP-controlled Congress has been compliant, his staff is almost exclusively populated by true believers, and although he takes plenty of reporters' questions, a healthy percentage of them are from journalists who work at sympathetic, right-leaning outlets."

Yes. My runner-up couples, in no particular order: - Ray Knight & Nancy Lopez - Megan Rapinoe & Sue Bird - Greg Norman & Chris Evert - Nomar Garciaparra & Mia Hamm - Ray Ferraro & Cammi Granato - Andre Agassi & Steffi Graf - Simone Biles & Jonathan Owens - Jozy Altidore & Sloane Stephens

This is disheartening... but not surprising. Overwhelming workloads, ethical concerns and new policies that don't allow for proper mental health treatment for those who proudly served their country. Read it when you have some time.

"How international news outlets report under Israel’s military censor during wartime" www.cnn.com/2026/03/06/m... via @cnn.com

Previously posted quote is from Chris Meagher, the chief Pentagon spokesman during the second half of Joe Biden's term as president, stressing there should be transparency about the military's operations, while accounting for national security implications, during the Iran War.

"Nearly $1 trillion in taxpayer money flows into the department and decisions being made by the secretary are literally life and death decisions about putting American troops in harm's way. The public deserves to know what their military is doing, especially in times of war."

And that's that.

What are we doing? A United States Marine who proudly served our country was seriously injured by an elected official while the military veteran was engaged in a constitutionally-protected right as an American citizen. This is bonkers.
