My hometown of Nashville -- a blue city which went about two-thirds for Harris-Walz in 2024 -- was gerrymandered by the TN GOP into three different districts all represented by Republicans now, so please get in line to complain about how unfair this all is, Virginia Republicans

Nothing has killed more soldiers in the history of humanity than disease. While worst is a more complicated question Hegseth is absolutely the dumbest secretary of defense the United States has ever had. bsky.app/profile/ones...
Tim Cook donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.
He fawned over Trump and gifted him a 24-karat gold plaque (as Apple lobbied for tariff exemptions).
Apple donated to Trump’s White House ballroom.
And it removed ICE tracking apps from its stores following a demand from the DOJ.
Remember this.
Today's winner of the Internet. Congratulations!
Everytime this clown appears I think of my friends who quietly and skillfully served at the Bureau for years until January 2025. His presence and their absence fill me with righteous anger.
It’s only the 5th inning and the joyless baseball has once again returned. #Astros
Mayor Mamdani and President Obama read a picture book to a group of children.
Mayor Mamdani and President Obama chat and laugh with a group of children.

Children hug Mayor Mamdani.
Today, President Barack Obama and I read to a group of toddlers at Learning Through Play Pre-K Center in the South Bronx.
In between singing wheels on the bus, we discussed our administration’s vision for this City — one where New York’s Cutest have the strongest start possible.
Three straight losses with no answer. I know I’m being hysterical, but this feels like it started with Crane firing Click at the end of 2022. I don’t want a teardown. I want better management. #Astros
Well, I thought we had a chance. How many times is Joe going to let Abreu do this? Madness. #Astros
What an uninspired game. Please explain why Yainer continues to remain our everyday catcher. #Astros
The idea that federal officials would yank millions from an org caring for children due to the president’s self-inflicted messaging disagreement with the Pope should alarm anyone who believes in democracy, the rule of law, religious liberty, and government accountability. We will expose the truth.
Trump broke the Commandents, so Vance had to commit the Deadly Sins. Trump compared himself to Jesus, so Vance had to claim that he was better at theology than the pope. This is one sad weird heretical Oedipal thing.
It wasn’t easy, but they finally did it. Please do it again tomorrow. #Astros
The ongoing murder of people on the high seas in direct violation of domestic & international law.
Glad to see that Swalwell and Gonzales both resigned.
Every other abuser and sex pest in Congress should join them.
Paying attention to this team right now just makes me angry and baseball should be about joy. I need all righteous anger to deal with Texas politics, Congress, and the fool in the White House. C’mon #Astros.
Rev. James Martin: "I don't know too many doctors that have glowing hands ... it came after he had just been tweeting out a pretty hateful attack on Pope Leo, so obviously religion was on his mind last night, and that probably came from watching the 60 Minutes special with the thee cardinals"
The Pope didn’t “push back.”
He’s refusing to engage.
He said he’s going to keep doing his job.
DJT’s words don’t matter.
This isn’t a debate.
Don’t let DJT create one.

If I didn’t know better, I’d call these pitching misadventures an epic punk. Wow, Dana Brown…just wow. #Astros
Incredible outcome…
Mariners are gonna win this because Abreu cannot throw a single strike. Foolish baseball. #Astros
Barack Obama sent seasoned diplomats and nuclear scientists to negotiate the Iran Deal. Donald Trump sent a few real estate bros and JD Vance. Failure was a foregone conclusion.
Reminder: Pakistan is hosting diplomatic talks between the US and Iran.
The Pakistani government is a business partner of President Trump's via World Liberty Financial.

If at first you spend one whole day to end 70 years of mistrust, tension and war and don’t succeed then just issue an ultimatum and go home?
Maybe we should try having a member of the Cabinet whose job is to run American diplomacy.
Probably and it will be painful. He could still be around for game 162 promising things will be fine.
Wow. These folks know the score.
Why do we keep burning through our challenges early? #Astros
I wanna point out something serious. The admin has been complaining about Iran winning the information war.
This same administration shut down Voice of America, and other information operations the US govt does.
It’s a self goal. Actions have consequences
