The Nationals fired both Mike Rizzo and Davey Martinez following today's loss to the Red Sox, source confirms. A major shakeup made by ownership with the team currently 37-53. ESPN's Jeff Passan had the news first.

Sure, we have had senior Cabinet officials who seethed about this story or that from time to time that they felt was unfair.
But we’ve never had a Secretary of Defense who spends every single day so completely consumed by media coverage to the point where he can’t even function.

Hegseth: We’re going to embrace a new “warrior ethos” based on strength, toughness, and my interpretation of hyper-masculinity.
Also Hegseth: If news organizations could start thinking more about my feelings and delicate sensibilities, that’d be great.

LA DODGERS just now:
“This morning, ICE agents came to Dodger Stadium and requested permission to access the parking lots. They were denied entry to the grounds by the organization. Tonight’s game will be played as scheduled.”
Right on, Dodgers!
More of this, please.
