What logic. Investigative journalism on concentration camps run by the US in a different country is “everyone already knows about it”. An interview no one asked for with Erica Kirk is what journalism is all about!

I couldn’t care less what this idiot has to say. She’s the representation of American decline, proudly and boastfully ignorant. I don’t wish her harm or ill but we don’t need to hear from her again.

Great World Series. Don’t really like either team but I’m a big fan of Ohtani and Yamamoto. The Blue Jays fully blew the series, they couldn’t win at home and blew a multi-run lead late in the game. SN broadcast was acting like they were the ‘98 Yankees, but great teams don’t collapse.
