The late Glenn Burke, who hit .340 for the Spokane Indians in 1972, was born on this day in 1952. A talented outfielder for the Dodgers and A's, Burke was the first openly gay player in MLB and is also credited with inventing the high five. He tragically died from AIDS-related complications in 1995.

LET ME BE PERFECTLY CLEAR: DOJ DID ALL OF THIS TO TRY AND STOP PAYMENTS TO PEOPLE UNDER AN ANTI-HUNGER PROGRAM.
Oh, this is wild.
DOJ went to SCOTUS *before* we got the First Circuit's administrative stay denial. (We know this because DOJ just filed a letter at SCOTUS about the admin stay denial.)
So, DOJ went to SCOTUS b/c the First Circuit did not meet its less-than-seven-hour "deadline" for a ruling.

The Reds join MLB in going purple today in support of LGBTQ+ youth and anti-bullying. Every young person deserves to feel safe and celebrated for who they are.
