Aside from the fact we need a top prospect at C, how many millions of dollars in merchandise did the #redsox miss out on by not drafting Ike Irish? Just selling jerseys with IRISH on the back in Boston would pay his salary several times over
Trump post: stop talking about Epstein!
This is definitely the best way to get people to stop talking about Epstein
Incredible that the Red Sox answer to "people are excited again because we have new talented players" was "trade the best hitter on the team"
Rafael Devers should’ve been a Red Sox for life.
The front office fumbled its relationship with the most important person in the organization and one of the best hitters alive, couldn’t fix it and just punted.
Mindless. A complete and utter clown show. Get Breslow the hell out.
Bondi declares war on the courts: "What has happened to our judiciary is beyond me ... they are deranged ... we are sending a very strong message today ... we will come after you and we will prosecute you. We will find you."
@gangoffour.bsky.social at @930club.bsky.social was an absolutely fantastic show. Never thought I’d see “microwave hit with a baseball bat” as a percussion instrument!
Last week, DHS and Secretary Noem's staff and spokespeople suggested that because Mr. Abrego Garcia had $1,100 in cash on him when arrested outside Home Depot seeking day labor, that was strong evidence that he was a member of MS-13.
I guess that raises a similar question about her $3,000.
“We’re gonna cut Medicaid, but no one will lose Medicaid as long as states spend more to make up for our cuts - so it’s not really a cut” appears to be the new GOP line.
It’s ofc bullshit - but also some states have automatic rollbacks of their Medicaid expansion if the federal match decreases.
In a matter of weeks, someone I went to middle school with went from posting Instagram stories of the cute breakfasts she makes for her kids to posting stories on the projected fatalities from shuttering USAID. Another now intersperses adoptable dogs with quotes from the Declaration of Independence
You can't report on this garbage without informing readers of the literal identical policy under Hitler. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/21/u...

If you're negotiating about what kinds of people the American SS is allowed to blackbag and whisk away to a foreign gulag, you've already lost
Photo of Senator Chris Van Hollen with Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.
This isn't example of "Buy American." It is an example of Trump using tariffs to shake down foreign governments for his own enrichment. He is a gangster getting protection money. #Corruption
disabled people deserve to live fulfilling lives no matter their productivity to society
cuomo’s position here is basically that it is unsporting to do politics www.thedailybeast.com/andrew-cuomo...
“Anyone who speaks out against the government is an enemy of the state” is quite literally textbook fascism
Every disabled person you know is watching the way you frame your outrage around the things RFK is saying and doing. You should all be evaluating your instincts at every step here.
Thank you so much Laura! Very glad ABC reached out to us to refute this dangerous nonsense
the most appalling part of this political era is the physical harm they are inflicting on innocent people but secondary to that i find the constant smug lectures from this country's biggest collection of hypocrites, scammers, perverts, pedophiles, and overall bozos very distasteful
Medicaid is meant to be a state-federal partnership. States are supposed to pay for 40% of the cost. Most states are paying for less than 15%. States have been cutting Medicaid for decades. People should not be asking what is the federal government doing, they should be asking why aren't the states doing more.
Senator Cassidy comes out for enormous cuts to Medicaid.
Not surprising given that he helped write the Graham-Cassidy Medicaid destruction plan in 2017.
Expect to see more of this from Rs - but don’t be fooled: cutting money to states to run Medicaid means people lose coverage and benefits.
have to wonder where he gets the idea that the us gov't will say "my bad" issue a new passport and venmo you an apology
Autistic people of all abilities are cool and rad and deserve to be here.
Bring this to Judge Boasberg's attention before he rules on criminal contempt. And to Judge Xinis's attention so she can decide to rule on criminal contempt in response to the DOJ lies to her about the status of Abrego Garcia. And to SCOTUS. Paying to have him kept is not "facilitating" his return.
NEW: Could the deals between Trump and the law firms be unraveling? There's a widening gap between what the firms believe they committed to and what Trump and the White House think their pro bono legal work can be used for: tariffs, helping the coal industry, repping Trump and his allies if they become ensnared in investigations.
Wow it’s almost as if this was an entirely predictable outcome, you fools
Imagine seeing this image four years ago. You would've wondered what tragedy befell our country where a scene like this could possibly happen.
This year, Autism Acceptance Month falls at a time when we’re seeing a flood of threats against disabled people’s rights and communities, but the self-advocacy movement has made it through storms before and we will again.
someone tell matt that they are very much doing wilson-style politics
