For me, this is peak bluesky- at the intersection of a serious race, petty politics, and obscure wide receivers from the early 2000s

Are water beds still a thing?

"Democrats will do anything to stay in power," Ted Cruz proclaims as Democrats currently control 0 branches of government

Gaza reconstruction to cost 175 Trump ballrooms

The craziest thing about watching the Artemis splashdown is knowing that whatever device you're watching it on has incredibly more technology in it than when we used to do this 60 years ago.

I've watched a lot of baseball. I can't remember this much energy in a baseball stadium, ever. Well done, MLB. Great tournament, Team USA. Congrats and tip of the cap to Team Venezuela! #wbc

We need an @umpscorecard.bsky.social for this US v Canada game

DOW is under 50k. Are we allowed to ask about Epstein files again?

He made the 100 year old WWII hero wait until the end? Give that dude his medal of honor in the first 5 minutes so he can go to the bathroom or to bed.. the guy is a hero just for making it to the end!

Ha- not the most important thing, but "legs are the most important part of flying a helicopter" is a genuinely funny example of how he just makes shit up

He's boring now

So what does this mean for the handful of countries he made actual reciprocal trade deals with?

Post this everywhere

CNN segment on how ICE is destroying this country Also CNN taking $ during breaks to run ICE recruitment commercials

Okay, I've already got my favorite super bowl commercial. That Claude AI commercial was perfect!

JJ McCarthy tonight, "See? It's not me, it's you!"

Jarrett Stidham has to feel a bit like a teenager who was handed the keys to a Ferrari

Oh please, like the penguins forgot about the tariffs.

Enter... Palentir

I know people scoff at, "think if a Dem did this!" But, it is helpful to play it out because R's have won a ton of election cycles. So... what if a Dem admin was using masked thugs to kidnap kids and disappear them?

BREAKING: Supreme Court says it's cool if Trump changes tax revenue receivables US Treasury account to his personal offshore bank account as long as it's done in his official capacity

With the number of injuries that all NFL teams seem to have had in the last month, I think what we really need is an 18th regular season game.

40 years ago, Russia/China hatched a plan to get dirt on prominent figures in the US that might someday come in political power. They would use this leverage to split up NATO and divide the US into warring factions. You know there had to be other bets. Trump happened to be the winning horse.

Dems need to use this moment to start pushing for DC Statehood. Interviewer of Republican Rep after a diatribe about needing to annex Greenland: "how do you feel about giving Federal representation to Americans in D.C?" R Rep: explanation of why it's not possible Followup: Canada? Venezuela?

Idea: instead of a simple like button you can only press once, each user gets x number of likes per day to budget as they see fit. Your meme cracked me up for a full minute? You get 15 of my likes! I just want to acknowledge that I see you? Sure, you can have one.

Is going to be awkward when Congress is asked to continue funding this at the end of the month

The top trending topic on this site has 182 posts. Awesome.

So... Dems are suing CBS the same way Trump did? Let's see someone copy his original complaint, swap out the details for this in handwritten red pen, and file it somewhere.

Trump knows he still has to do this again at the State of the Union, right?

You cannot convince me that 6pm in July and 6pm in December are the same time.

Say what you want about his age, but under Joe Biden, I could watch Monday Night Football on YouTube TV.

So the news cycle is just past the fact that Johnson won't swear in a duly elected representative? Cool cool. Not saying it's a dry run for the midterms... but it worked.

New plan: 1. A Dem mega donor promises $ for the ballroom to get an audience with Trump. 2. Pitch him: "You know what would really drive libs crazy? Replace 'Obamacare' with 'Trumpcare'." (A single Trump eyebrow raises) 3. Slide him legislation for Medicare for All discreetly across his desk.

What could go wrong?

@snarkypete.bsky.social Technically, "Republicans want Democratic cover to keep breaking the law. Democrats won't play along *unless ACA subsidies are extended*."

Perhaps if we can have 8 pm ET start times for weekend playoff baseball games, we don't have to wait until 9 pm ET to start playoff baseball games during the week. Something to think about.

This seems... generous

@umpscorecard.bsky.social has their work cut out for them after this Brewers/Cubs game. MLB may have no choice other than to implement robo umps before the end of this game.

Couldn't hate the Strauss helmet branding more

Big idea did Dems to run on: a one time 4% tax on American billionaires to completely pay off U.S. debt.

Tony Romo is your friend that won't shut up during the football game trying to prove he knows some football things

LA should not get to have 2 NFL teams

Any Dem considering being the next nominee should publicly challenge Speaker Johnson to a televised debate on the budget proposals. Make him go out of a safe space to try his "healthcare for illegals" bit so you can shoot that shit down. Live events draw network eyeballs. Breaks their echo chamber.

Doesn't seem fair that Kike Hernandez has played almost 90 postseason games, and Mike Trout has played in three.

Did Pete Hegseth say today that he was going to cut his hair?

I can't find it in me to hate the new NFL kickoff rules.

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess there is not a Dem org out there adding a "shut down Sinclair-owned local news broadcasts using FCC" bullet point to the project 2029 to-do list.

The NFL seems better. Quarterbacks are better. Impossible sideline catches are the norm. The 60 yard field goal is the new 50 yard field goal. Lots of good running backs. Defenses are fast. It's a crazy league right now.

@nytpitchbot.bsky.social thought this headline was you

I've seen enough. Trump's right; call in the national guard! Murders in Chicago are happening live in prime time!
