There is something humorous about an individual who claims he cut prescription costs “1500%” telling the Fed chair what he should do to improve the economy. #trump

Today we celebrate freedom from authoritarianism. Our flag has, above all else, been a symbol of that freedom. So join with me today. As you celebrate say this to yourself, say it to friends, or shout it to the sky as the bombs burst in the air: “Fuck the King!”

These CCCP buckles were brought home by my father in the 70s after he made a grain delivery to Vladivostok. I used to wear them but the faux leather was Soviet quality. My good friend John Dally took the time to make real quality leather belts for them. #CCCP

Well said.

$31 million a year and you got “butt hurt” because they first asked you to DH (your fielding was terrible) and then, when a teammate was injured, they asked you to return to the field. You declined. Good riddance. #redsox

To celebrate Luigi as a “hero” and to wish the kid “was a better shot” and then mourn those killed in Minnesota is hypocrisy. Ethics is not relative. Look in the mirror.
