Fisherman. Grammar snob.
Word on the street is that HDTV antennae are selling like hotcakes in the Greater Philadelphia area. Returns are expected to spike after #MondayNightFootball or when YouTube works out their issues with Disney.

Purely performative. Nearly all charges were at the state level…and the president does not have the ability to remove those.

The fact the #Phillies were eliminated by the eventual World Series winners doesn’t change the reality that they played like shit when the big moment arrived, they didn’t hit and Kevin Long should be fired.

“The legacy media is apparently more interested in the climate musings of an erstwhile PC mogul than a sober assessment by the world’s leading climate scientists.”
#climate
Some serious scientists have a look at Bill Gates 17-page memo on climate science and come to some ready conclusions: this isn't serious criticism. It's the handiwork of a charlatan.
You can’t reboot the planet if you crash it
What Gates is putting forward aren’t legitimate arguments that can be made in good faith. They are shopworn fossil fuel industry talking points.

My big takeaway from Trump's lengthy Air Force One gaggle is that he's talking about shredding the Constitution by being in office for a third term increasingly openly.

If you don't think he try it, you're in denial.
Trump on a third term: "I would love to do it. I have the best numbers ever. Am I not ruling it out? You'll have to tell me."
