The United States needs leaders with a common-sense approach.
National survey (consulting firm Mercer) of 1,700 businesses who offer health insurance to employees say in 2026 they face steepest increase in medical costs in 15 years—6.7%, on top of 6% in 2025. Yet #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice & his cabal in Congress DO NOTHING! Is that what you voted for America?

#Trump claimed on social media that Americans could purchase their own, "much better healthcare," & have money "left over" if funds weren't allocated to "money sucking Insurance Companies" through the ACA. You know what else could remove insurance companies from healthcare?

#WhiteSox acquired Everson Pereira & Tanner Murray from Tampa for pitchers Yoendrys Gómez & Steven Wilson. Pereira is 24 and Murray is 26. Ryan Fuller, Sox Director of Hitting, YOU’RE UP!!

When will the MSM start investigating who are these #Trump ICE AGENTS that are terrorizing America’s communities? I would not be shocked to hear many are members of white supremacist groups like the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers.

#Trump ordering military to kill supposed “drug runners” off coast of Venezuela is patently illegal. Which raises this question! Are military personnel who follow his orders culpable & could they be prosecuted for murder or war crimes under both military & international law?

In 2024 the #WhiteSox won 41 games. So far in 2025, with 20 games to play, they have won 54. Despite losing 50 games by 2 runs or less; 31 games by 1 run. Key to improving that record is upgrading their bullpen; which has blown 50% of 42 save opportunities! Ranking them dead last in #MLB.

#TACOTrump caves on CEASE FIRE demand for #UkraineWar after meeting with HIS BOSS #PutinIsaWarCriminal.
“It’s really up to President Zelensky to get it done,” #TrumpIsARussianAsset said. “I would also say the European nations, they have to get involved a little bit.” CluckCluck…

Democratic Party needs to message. #Trump power grab in #Texas is happening because Ted Cruz blocked Senate bill 2670 in 2021. The bill would have required states to establish INDEPENDENT REDISTRICTING COMMISSIONS to carry out House congressional redistricting & eliminate gerrymandering.

Well #WhiteSox  fans I guess we can scratch Jonathan Cannon from the list of pitchers who will turn this team into a contender. Maybe AAA should be in his future?

#MLB prospect rankings really are weird! They have Ethan Holiday rated FIRST! He has 2 grades over 50: power 65; arm 55; with an overall of 60. While #WhiteSox draft pick Billy Carlson is ranked 7th; with 3 gradings over 50: field 70, arm 65 & run 55. Yet he has overall of 55? Huh?? 🤔

According to the World Trade Organization, US nonagricultural exports to the EU face an average tariff rate of 1%. Agricultural goods face a slightly higher barrier, 3.9%. Yet the “economic genius” #TrumpTariffs has issued a 30% tariff on the EU claiming this in his letter… 😱

What #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace and his sycophants in the #MAGA world don’t comprehend or admit is this basic fact: If the US did not have a trade deficit in manufactured goods, then manufacturing might be 12.5% of employment rather than 10%; not the 25% it was in 1970. More facts…

After a couple of decades during which U.S. power demand has remained relatively stagnant, domestic electricity consumption is expected to spike by 25% from 2023- to 2035 & roughly 60% from 2023 to 2050, according to the International Energy Agency. #Trump #BigBeautifulBill does this…

Well #WhiteSox Shane Smith All-Star chances are going 👋👋! Last three starts 0-3, 11 IP, 16 ER, 16 Hits.

According to a 2023 Soter Analytics study, U.S. manufacturing jobs in the U.S. have an average $25-per-hour wage, about $51,890 per year. Falling short of the average American salary of $66,600. But these are the jobs #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice wants to bring back to America.

#Trump administration so desperate to deport Kilmar Garcia that they decide not to deport a CRIMINAL!

#Trump sycophant Emil Bove has been nominated by #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice for a seat on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit. Let’s now watch again as the #MAGA #GOP rubber stamps another unqualified & corrupt Trump nominee. #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace but so are Republicans in Congress.

#WhiteSox have one player, Miguel Vargas, with 10+ HRs on their MLB roster. Yet they keep Tim Elko (13 HRs) and Brooks Baldwin (10 HRs) at AAA. Both players are also hitting .313 and .375 respectively. Seems like Getz is tanking on purpose.
June 24, 2025 at 7:10 PM
MSM is focused on #IranVsIsrael conflict & now America’s involvement. But the rest of the #Trump policy agenda continues to goose-step on. Policies that will be especially severe for rural areas & small towns, the very areas that overwhelmingly supported #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice in 2024.

#Trump tax bill heavily skews top 1%; average $70,000 reduction in income taxes, according to Tax Policy Center. More than 1/3 of tax breaks will go to those earning $460,000+ a year. Middle class will get average $2-3,000 tax break. Bottom 30% of population will be losers. Plus Medicare cuts! 😱
June 13, 2025 at 2:27 PM
#WhiteSox record is 6-23 in games decided by 2 runs or less. They scored 3 runs or less in 18 of those losses. In 1 run games their record is 4-14. They scored 3 runs or less in 10 losses. Once this team adds offense to start scoring more runs they can significantly improve their record of 22-44.

If the #WhiteSox decide to move Luis Robert soon a potential replacement could be Dominic Fletcher. At AAA Charlotte he is slashing .269/.352/.506 with an OPS of .858 and 9 HRs. He is also a very good defensive CF with a big time arm.

Orioles starting pitcher Dean Kremer on Saturday entered the game vs the #WhiteSox with an ERA of 5.02. So of course he went six innings allowing only 1 run on 6 hits and striking out 7 in Baltimore’s 4-2 victory over the hapless WSOX. Footnote: Luis Robert went 0-5 and struck out 3 times. 😱
