What a beautiful song and arrangement www.youtube.com/watch?v=49bl...

There is no bigger hack on Sunday morning TV than Reince Priebus

Trump and his little toady have to be losing their mind watching the Super Bowl pregame show

His shtick is getting old. At the last minute he will declare some unverifiable win and how he got them to cave and thus the tariffs are no longer necessary. www.cnbc.com/2025/01/31/t...

I’m ok with the baseball HOF election, especially Ichiro. He was a unique talent. But CC in his first year of eligibility? I’m not seeing it. Winning starter for a long time but ERA close to 3.80 and just over six inning per start. 1st ballot should be for the truly elite

The fish scene with Sally and Chuckie in The Irishman is absolutely beautiful

Joe DiMaggio drove in 930 runs in his first seven years before going into the service. Then he missed three seasons. Let that sink in

www.cnbc.com/2024/12/24/n... Nippon should be allowed to buy US Steel. They’re an ally and history has shown they are much better managers in this industry. Only issue is Hyman Roth will have to change that line in Godfather II

Might be @radiofreetom.bsky.social best writing. And that’s saying a lot. Remember this from when it was first published

This Reagan biopic with Dennis Quaid is just awful. I’m not a Reagan lover or hater but this is just shallow swooning over a much deeper and complex man. Thanks Amazon for taking three dollars that I could have bought a nice baseball card with

“I imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, they will be forced to deal with pain.” – James Baldwin who died on this day in 1987

A big part of the golden era of college basketball. Rest in Peace Louie www.espn.com/mens-college...

I anxiously await Senator Ernst support of the elimination of farm subsidies as well as the ethanol boondoggle www.foxnews.com/video/636527...

His shtick is so predictable. Saber rattle on Tuesday. Declare some nebulous unverifiable victory on Wednesday. Watch the MAGA crowd worship him. www.foxnews.com/politics/tru...

Trump’s economic shtick is so predictable. Saber rattle to spook everybody (25% tariffs on CN and MX) but leave enough of an unquantifiable out (comply on illegal immigrants and fentanyl) to declare he won without implementing the idiotic threat.

This Elon Musk documentary on Amazon Prime is nauseating. I get people fawning over his technological genius but these people are all saying what a great and altruistic person he is. Way different than Walter Isaacson’s book which seemed pretty balanced

Enrolling for the fourth year in the ACA market and it is as simple and intuitive as anything I’ve ever done. Way easier and less complex than any company enrollment I’ve ever used
