"Literally every single word the President said was wrong... We have enormous anxiety among voters. The cost of living is rising, and people are understandably upset. I just want to be crystal clear there's not a word coming out of the man's mouth that is correct."

AJ Brown doesn't need separation... | Bleeding Green Nation

And it is true that some elite wide receivers excel for other reasons – ball

According to FPI (imperfect, but it considers wins, points, and competition) the #Eagles have the ninth best offense in football. Sounds bad, right? But last year, the Eagles were ranked the sixth best in the NFL. In 2023, they were eighth. In 2022, they were second.

#Eagles fans need to chill.
Of the ten teams with toughest schedules, the Birds are the only team with seven wins.
They've faced six of the NFL’s best defenses: DEN, KC, LAR, MIN, GB, and TB.
They’ve played only one bad game all season (NYG).

Newsom: "Think about the state of mind of the VP. How do you square the circle when you go to a prayer breakfast? Old testament, new testament. What's the fundamental thing that connects John to Matthew to Proverbs? It's this notion of hunger, feeding the poor. It's central to advancing God's will."

By law the Republicans were required to have a budget for the new fiscal year in place on September 30th.
Anyone seen the budget? Are they are here in DC working on one?
Don't we think media, commentators should be asking Rs where their budget is? Do they intend to actually create one?
