The LA Dodgers told singer Vanessa Hernández-Nezza she couldn't perform the national anthem in Spanish – a version FDR commissioned. She nodded, took the mic, and did it anyway to a standing ovation. People are mad the Dodgers have refused to make a statement re the raids. apnews.com/article/dodg...

When the Dodgers visited the Trump White House in April, I wrote about how the Dodgers ownership group has more in common with Trump than the working class that makes up this city. Their silence in the face of the ICE terror that our city is experiencing further proves my point. ⬇️

TIL the National Anthem has had a Spanish language version since 1945, commissioned by the White House. This is the most perfect thing for the Dodgers. Maybe front office didn't want it, but you know Jackie Robinson, Fernando Valenzuela, and Vin Scully are cheering her from heaven.

Had jury duty this week. The defendant had committed five armed robberies WITH A MACHINE GUN. When asked what I think about firearms, I said: "I think the Second Amendment is one of the stupidest things America ever did, other than the way activist judge Antonin Scalia willfully misinterpreted it."
