I’ve experienced Mayor Smiley’s calm, controlled, detailed, prepared leadership first hand. Providence is fortunate to have him in this moment.

Is Trump going to pardon the Capitol pipe bomber like he did everyone else from January 6?

Is it too much to ask for Republicans to condemn this? Can we draw the line somewhere before calling for the execution of political rivals? This shouldn’t be hard.

🚩Republicans, aware they are going to lose, are attempting to cast doubts about the election. They tried to overturn the will of the voters in 2020. They are at it again.

Pretty good

Most of our clocks turn themselves back at this point. We can handle this, America 💪

It’s not like there was ever any precedent that sports betting would lead to crime, right? Right?

I don’t want the Blue Jays to win. I don’t want the Dodgers to win. Sigh. 😕

Hey team, question: When we talk about the ‘20s, we’re still talking about the 1920’s, right?

What Kristi Noem is doing is corruption. The cost of that corruption is that the Department of Homeland security is spending resources on politics instead of keeping us safe.

Trail mix would be better without the nuts and raisins.

Enabler of Trump Administration bashes Trump Administration.

True

Turns out the Yankees benching some of their best hitters didn’t help them score runs.

Here’s my take: Food is “part of his language to make his politics really accessible,” Mr. Bozzi said. “Which is different from the actual food being the event, like ‘I am eating fried butter or the cheesesteak.’ That feels a little more contrived.”

Republicans control all levers of government…they have had all year to provide health care funding…they have cut it instead. They would rather let the government shut down than fund health care for American citizens. None of that is in dispute.

Stay tuned for a fun weekend in the American League

What the hell www.businessinsider.com/world-cup-gh...

Don’t take out the pitcher with a no hitter!!

🌟 When you pray for something that you have the power to change 👇

Yeah, and we can’t just say that this should never happen again. We should do something to stop it.

The Yankees are not constructed to win the World Series

Joni Ernst made exactly zero people in Washington squeal. But, boy has she hurt a lot of regular people.

Starting in September, Gov. Greg Abbott and GOP lawmakers will make it even harder in Texas to prevent school shootings, suicides, and murders by domestic abusers www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Aaron Boone pitching Devin Williams because he’s a righty is like Mr. Burns pinch hit Homer Simpson for Darryl Strawberry to “play the percentages.”

Can Boone stop using Devin Williams in high leverage situations. Please.

This is good, but I might have gone with “Fire Cashman”

Texas Dems break quorum to protect the rights of Texas Voters. Speaker Mike Johnson recesses Congress early to avoid release of the Epstein files. Sign me up for protecting voters over protecting the Epstein cover up.

Could he just stop planes from crashing into each other first

If they played it cool they might have had a chance.

Lame

Honestly, the Yankees are pretty unwatchable these days…again.

Rafael Warnock, everybody

This bill doesn’t sound good for working people

Republicans continue to weaken and bypass the filibuster. Here they’re doing it to push an enormous amount of debt on American families. popular.info/p/the-truth-...

The truth is that Cassidy knew Kennedy would break his promise from the onset.

Fair question. Wasn’t Trump supposed to fix this? He’s made it worse.

Jaws holds up

Are the squirrels the reason for his poor performance? Cause the damages might be higher.

Plus Transformers Two sets up for a perfect name

Just when they finally started to get transformers movies right…

Otto. Syracuse alumni are on the loose again.

Corruption like this is why voters have lost faith in Washington. We need major ethics reforms - with strong enforcement. And we need to get Dark Money out of politics - and to protect the freedom to vote. That’s how we make government accountable to the people open.substack.com/pub/populari...

Are we sure he wants to make America healthy?

The fight between Donald Trump and Elon Musk is essentially about whose brand of corruption should dominate American politics. www.cnn.com/politics/liv...
