Whomst among us ever thought that constantly shoving gambling down any and every sports fan’s throat via every avenue possible would cause problems?
MLB pitchers Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz were charged with taking bribes to rig pitches for bettors.

Two Major League Baseball pitchers have been indicted on charges they took bribes to give sports bettors advance notice of the types of pitches they’d throw and intentionally tossed balls instead of strikes to ensure successful bets.

Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week
Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

I will not only blame the Senate Democrats who are caving. I will blame them all. They needed to keep their ranks in order. If this happens, it's the most spineless political retreat imaginable and it will harm millions upon millions of Americans. Chickenshit, self-neutering nonsense. Cowards.

OMG. The site is literally called the Dunning Kruger Times.
With a “WOW!,” President Trump posts a claim about DOGE and “royalties linked to Obamacare” that originated on a satirical website. That site’s own About section reads: “Everything on this website is fiction… If you believe that it is real, you should have your head examined.”

More than anything yet, this makes me
believe Stephen Miller is running things. Trump is a miserable, selfish ass without a lick of compassion, but he has the political instincts to know this looks bad. I think his brain is fried and Miller is de facto president. Would explain a lot.

Come now, distribute your wealth lavishly, becoming honorable and glorious in your expenditures for the needy. Let what is said of the righteous be said also of you, “They have distributed freely, they have given to the poor; their righteousness endures forever.”

Good. Seriously. Please let Trump pick every SEC coach. Let him make every decision for the entire conference. The only way we'll ever break Trump fever in that part of America is to let him get involved with their college football decisions because they care deeply about that shit

The more the left declares there will be no more elections and Trump is our forever president, the more we believe it. Then we lose before we even get started.

Please read this thread about a historic battle against fascism and be encouraged and motivated.
A story:.
On October 4, 1936, thousands of British citizens came together in London to stop a march of the British Union of Facists (also known as the Blackshirts). The confrontation became known as the Battle of Cable Street.
