Mark DeRosa ‘misspoke,’ and now Team USA’s manager must face more scrutiny (Gift Article) Video of Mark DeRosa's ill-fated comments was restored to the league's website after it had been taken down.

I can’t get exercised over this since most of the teams the USA plays are comprised of many us born players.

But if I’d bet on the USA to beat Italy I’d be bigly POd. www.nytimes.com/athletic/710...

I’m sorry, doing this in a baseball cap sold by your campaign store is deliberately disrespecting the dead.

Intel report warns large-scale war ‘unlikely’ to oust Iran’s regime A classified U.S. report doubts that Iran’s opposition would take power following either a short or extended U.S. military campaign.

Iran’s Parliament speaker, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, rejected the notion that Trump will play any role in appointing Iran’s next leader.

“The fate of dear Iran... will be determined solely by the proud Iranian nation, not by [Jeffrey] Epstein’s gang,” Ghalibaf said on X

It couldn’t be more clear that this is a weak man who is in way over his head and trying to distract from that by ineffectively acting like a tough guy. A pathetic embarrassment.

It is extraordinary that, when the President of the United States goes on LIVE television to say one completely batshit crazy thing after another for 45 minutes, it is no longer considered extraordinary.

His blood pressure has got to be through the roof right now, so if anyone has a chance to ask him an aggressive question about the Epstein files, that really could make It happen today.

Come on, reporters. We'll build statues in your honor.
