Braves are on their way to an 11th straight game of 5 runs or less. Only 1 of those has even gotten to 5. Just terrible offense, just getting Acuna back won't fix this

Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.

We've really reached a point where even elected officials don't think the Nazi's were the bad guys. Truly wild.
Yesterday, TX Rep. Keith Self (R) quoted Nazi Joseph Goebbels on controlling public opinion🤬

Using Nazi propaganda is more than vile; it’s a flashing red siren. This is how democracy dies: not with a bang, but with silence in the face of fascist rot.

America, do not be silent.
Call out evil.

I have said since Trump starting laying the groundwork for the Big Lie in the first part of 2020 that he would not leave office willingly. I have been correct so far. And I'm telling you again he will not leave office willingly. www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

Our country may never be the same
Car salesman at a local Hyundai dealership today, after I asked him about the tariffs:

"It's terrible. The price of every vehicle is going to go up five or six thousand dollars... And here's the thing, even after they go away, think about it, they're not going to come back down again."

This should lead every news program tonight and be on the front page of every (serious) newspaper tomorrow.
NEW—After a day of uncertainty on where agents took Tufts student Rumeysa Ozturk, she appears to be in a Louisiana facility.

1400+ miles from Somerville, Massachusetts, where she was taken.

A judge ordered to not take her out of state without 48 hour notice. She was detained last night.

Leader Schumer: "This debacle requires a full investigation."

"If our nation's military secrets are being peddled around over unsecured text chains, we need to know that at once and we need to put a stop to it immediately."
FLAG: Top Trump officials including JD Vance, Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth, and Tulsi Gabbard planned military strikes on Yemen's Houthis in a Signal messaging group — a group to which they accidentally added The Atlantic editor in chief Jeffrey Goldberg.

One close Trump adviser simply says that the president’s ultimate leverage against certain judges who try to stand in the way of his agenda is that the judiciary does not command an army, while the president of the United States does.

I'm shocked!
The Trump admin is gutting the Justice Department's unit that oversees prosecutions of public officials accused of corruption.

The unit, the Public Integrity Section, has overseen some of the country’s most high-profile and sensitive prosecutions. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...
Justice Department office that prosecutes public corruption slashed in size, sources say
Only a small fraction of the Public Integrity Section’s employees — roughly a half-dozen — will remain in an office that had dozens of employees and oversaw cases nationwide.

Elon and Tesla have never CREATED anything. Just steal developments from others and take credit.
One thing that the general public is not that aware of re: Tesla is that *they do not manufacture their own battery cells*

They lease space in their factories for third-parties such as Panasonic.

A lot of people invested in Tesla because they thought Tesla was vertically integrated re: the cells.
