Hey, what if we made sure every democratic politician who ain’t doing shit right now doesn’t get past their primary next time. Could we do that?

@keithlaw.bsky.social is Cal’s Rodney Green a high prospect for this year’s draft? At the Cal game now and he looks impressive. Launched a massive HR, walked and stole a base. Just looks like a GUY.
