@almostamet.bsky.social Credibility counts. I'm flabbergasted that in your newsletter you posted about April '22, you wrote that the worst GM in MLB history, Brodie Van Wagenen, was with the #Mets. He absolutely was NOT. Steve Cohen -- in a Nobel Prize-worthy move-- fired his sorry ass in Nov. '20.

This is insane. Federal agents have now arrested a second journalist who covered the protest at a Minneapolis church at which an ICE director is a pastor. First, former CNN anchor Don Lemon and now, Minneapolis TV reporter Georgia Fort. Freedom of the press is being removed before our very eyes.

Hardly surprising that maga sent one of its most authentic representatives to Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's town hall meeting last night in Minneapolis. No use in my insulting this man. His behavior speaks for itself, as do his priors.🙄

Silverio Villegas Gonzalez was shot before Keith, but nobody remembers him either. In fact, we're at like 40+ victims now. Sucks.
All should be remembered. All should receive justice.
Only 2 are protestors that were publicly executed for defending their neighbors & democracy & that's Renee & Alex.

Demoting ICE executioner Greg Bovino and possibly firing Kristi "Deportation Barbie" Noem and her toady Corey Lewandowski is nowhere near enough. Where is the justice for the three people -- Keith Porter, Renee Good, and Alex Pretti -- all shot dead by ICE agents, who haven't even been stood down?
